Li Shiming felt the ninth heavenly thunder. After comparing them, he felt that the power of this thunder was even stronger than the attack of Lian Lei, the half-step great man he had encountered before.
Although it cannot compare to the might of a real powerful being, such heavenly thunder can definitely annihilate all fourth-grade creatures.
He had no confidence at all as to whether the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse could survive the ninth heavenly thunder.
Anyway, if even a trace of the residual power of this thunderbolt falls and affects him, he won't even be able to protect himself.
The terrifying ninth thunderbolt fell on the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse Refiner. The Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse Refiner used its wings to protect its body and endured the thunderbolt head-on.
Li Shiming stood in the distance and sensed the power of space emanating from the pair of wings of the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse.
He vaguely saw that when the thunder fell on the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse, a spatial crack appeared on the pair of wings.
The terrifying thunder fell into the space crack, and then the thunder appeared from the thundercloud, blasting away the dense thunderclouds in the sky.
As for the corpse with sharp mouth and fangs under the ninth heavenly thunder, although it looked extremely miserable, it still survived the thunder catastrophe.
The wings of the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse were retracted behind its back, revealing its broken body.
The wounds on this body are trying to heal themselves, but the power of the heavenly thunder remaining in the wounds is preventing them from healing, making the healing process extremely slow.
However, when the reward from heaven and earth after the thunder tribulation arrived, the injuries on the body of the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse disappeared almost completely within three breaths.
The energy transformed from the reward from heaven and earth is not only used to heal injuries, but is also transforming the body of the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse.
A powerful aura emanated from the pointed-mouthed and fanged corpse, and it was constantly increasing.
After a long time, as the energy transformed from the reward from heaven and earth disappeared, the aura on the pointed-mouthed and fanged corpse stopped rising.
Li Shiming could be sure that the realm of the Sharp-Billed and Fanged Corpse Refiner had not reached the level of a great power, which was the conceptual level of the "Flying Yaksha".
But it must have surpassed the level of the Golden Corpse and reached a realm similar to that of a human cultivator who has reached half a step toward becoming a great power.
Of course, if a powerful person who is familiar with corpse refining were to come here, he would not be able to recognize what kind of corpse the pointed-mouthed and fanged corpse is.
Because a corpse with a pointed mouth and fangs had never appeared in the world of immortal cultivation before, Li Shiming conducted experimental research and created a monster.
Li Shiming looked at the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse in the sky. As his mind moved slightly, the figure of the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse disappeared from its original place and then appeared in front of him.
The sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse was extremely respectful to him, which could be sensed from the connection between the master-master contract.
There was no loss of control just because the level of the Sharp Mouth and Fangs Corpse Refining surpassed Li Shiming's.
This is a good thing. No matter what kind of monster the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse is, as long as it is under the control of Li Shiming and its own strength is extremely powerful, this experiment will be considered to have yielded results.
Li Shiming carefully observed the corpse with pointed mouth and fangs. The only weapons that could be seen on its body, apart from the obvious fangs, were the pointed nails on its ten fingers.
The nail was a weapon that surpassed the fourth grade but did not reach the fifth grade.
This nail alone could easily break the body of a peak great monk. He even doubted whether a half-step great master could withstand the attack of a pair of sharp claws from the pointed-mouthed and fanged corpse.
However, nails are not its strongest means of attack. The sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse also has the ability to control lightning and space.
As he communicated with the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse Refiner's consciousness, Li Shiming discovered that the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse Refiner's means of attack were very rich, far beyond what the previous late-stage Golden Corpse Refiner could compare to.
The Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse has the ability to control lightning, which is why it was able to forcibly survive eight thunders in a thunder tribulation.
Generally speaking, heavenly thunder is a natural counter to corpse refining.
This is also the main reason why cultivators often fail when refining corpses. The newly-born corpses find it difficult to resist the attacks of heavenly thunder.
The predecessor of the Sharp-Billed and Fanged Corpse Refiner was Yang Xing, a half-step great master of the Yuqing Sect. Yang Xing practiced the 'Yuqing Thunder Canon' and was a half-step great master of thunder who had almost mastered the rules of thunder to his bones.
Even though the half-step great man Yang Xing had fallen, there were still remnants of thunder rules in his body. During the corpse refining and transformation process, the remaining thunder rules were transformed into "thunder rule imprints" by the "corpse refining runes".
Another ability that the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse Refiner possesses is spatial ability. It used its spatial ability to forcibly divert the ninth heavenly thunder. This is the application of spatial ability.
The ability to move through space is something it is born with. When it was recalled by Li Shiming, it used this ability.
Li Shiming's spatial ability was acquired through practicing the Divine Foot Skill. His control over spatial ability was far inferior to that of the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse Refiner.
After refining the corpse with pointed mouth and fangs, Li Shiming can continue to study its spatial ability, thereby improving his own spatial ability.
Such a big commotion here cannot be concealed from the Wanshou Sect thousands of miles away, as well as the many cultivators in the Dongqi Continent.
However, when he came out, he had already greeted the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect in advance. He was the strongest being in the Dongqi Continent and the most powerful cultivator, so no cultivator came to disturb him.
Li Shiming wanted to test the combat power of the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse, but he quickly gave up the idea.
There really was no opponent. He could feel that even if he used all his means, he would not be able to defeat the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse.
It can be said that the strongest combat force he has now is the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse, which has a combat power that surpasses the fourth level.
He took out a robe and threw it to the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse Refiner. The style of this robe could be changed at will.
A 1.2-meter-tall, sharp-beaked, fang-toothed corpse with a pair of wings growing on its back can also wear this robe, and two gaps will automatically open on its back, allowing a pair of wings to extend.
"Constrain your breath, it's too strong!" Li Shiming ordered in a deep voice, feeling the breath of the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse.
In other words, he is the master of the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse and is not affected by the aura of the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse.
If another top-level cultivator were here, he would not be as relaxed as Li Shiming.
If the aura revealed by the corpse with sharp mouth and fangs were really summoned somewhere, I am afraid that all the cultivators, whether enemy or friendly, would be affected by this powerful aura.
Even cultivators with lower strength may be killed directly by its aura.
Li Shiming didn't want this situation to happen, especially in the Dongqi Continent. The strength of the cultivators here was generally low, and there were not many cultivators who could withstand the aura of the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse.
After he issued the order, the corpse with sharp mouth and fangs began to restrain its breath.
Not long after, the powerful aura on the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse was swept away, and the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse looked like a weird monkey, without much sense of threat.
Who would know what kind of terrifying power is contained in this small body.
Li Shiming did not retract the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse, but let it follow him.
During this period, he needs to analyze the situation of the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse Refining, and also observe the master recognition contract of the Sharp-Mouthed and Fanged Corpse Refining.
"Shiming, you're back. What's this?" Yin Shilan saw Li Shiming and hurried forward, and asked when she saw the corpse with sharp mouth and fangs.
Li Shiming was away for a hundred days, which was the longest time the two had been apart in recent decades.
Since Li Shiming's realm had reached the level of a great cultivator, his cultivation time was very short, and he usually spent most of his time with Yin Shilan.
Yin Shilan was still a little worried after being away for a hundred days.
"This is my new spiritual pet, Lei Gong!" Li Shiming did not tell Yin Shilan the truth, mainly because it was difficult to explain the matter of refining the 'Flying Yaksha'. He could only find an excuse and, by the way, gave the sharp-mouthed and fanged corpse a name.
The name Lei Gong was taken based on the appearance of the corpse with sharp mouth and fangs. The legendary Lei Gong looks very similar to the corpse with sharp mouth and fangs.
"I feel the spiritual energy in my body is full, and I will soon break through to the realm of a great monk!" Yin Shilan didn't care about the new spiritual pet Lei Gong. She smiled and told Li Shiming the good news.
In fact, during this period of time, Li Shiming's phantom clone has been accompanying her in the cave.
However, she felt that this good news must be told to Li Shiming himself, rather than to his clone, in order to be meaningful.
"I have studied the 'Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens'. It would be better for you to advance together with Xiao Huang. I will prepare elixirs for you!" Li Shiming was delighted upon hearing this and at the same time offered his own opinion.
Yin Shilan's cultivation speed is not fast, of course compared with him and his clone Li Yuanba.
Li Shiming's requirement for Yin Shilan is stability. Because Yin Shilan does not need to have strong combat power, Yin Shilan's training is mainly focused on improving his cultivation, and he does not need to master many combat methods.
With the help of a large number of elixirs, Yin Shilan's cultivation speed remained far beyond that of other cultivators of the same level.
The "Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens" technique requires cultivators to practice together with their spiritual pet, the Phoenix, using the spiritual pet to improve the quality of the spiritual energy in their bodies.
Her spiritual pet, Xiao Huang, has never lacked elixirs to enhance its strength, which has enabled Xiao Huang to reach the peak of the middle fourth rank at an early age.
"I thought so too!" Yin Shilan nodded in agreement.
"For a safer promotion, you'd better go to Luanfeng Palace. It will be safer to be promoted to a great monk in Luanfeng Palace!" Li Shiming said after thinking for a while.
"Will it be inconvenient?" Yin Shilan asked hesitantly.
The last time she was in Zhongzhou, she was attacked and her phantom clone was almost killed.
She was not afraid of her own safety, but was worried about implicating Li Shiming.
"It's okay. I'll let Li Yuanba take care of it. I'm going to give this Thunder God to Li Yuanba. It's a good opportunity for us to go together this time!" Li Shiming said with a smile.
He had made up his mind that he would not leave Dongqi Continent for the time being. Even if there were enemies attacking, they would at least be powerful enemies, and even the God of Thunder would be of no use.
But Li Yuanba is different. Li Yuanba’s current strength is indeed very strong, but according to Li Shiming’s experience, if any force wants to deal with Li Yuanba, they will probably send out a half-step great power.
And Lei Gong is the only fighting force in his hands that can fight against the half-step great power. Isn't the reason he refined Lei Gong just to fight against the great power?
Although Lei Gong now only possesses the combat power of a half-step great power, he is now a top great cultivator. When he is promoted to a half-step great power and masters more knowledge, he may be able to refine a real "Flying Yaksha".
"That's good!" Yin Shilan smiled slightly. She was smart and knew that the relationship between Li Shiming and Li Yuanba must be extremely close, and it was beyond everyone's imagination.
Li Shiming spent a hundred days to bring back the spiritual pet Lei Gong, and he gave it to Li Yuanba with just one sentence.
Although she didn't know how powerful Lei Gong was, based on what she knew, the strength of any spiritual pet around Li Shiming was not bad, and they all had at least the strength of a peak great monk.
Yin Shilan didn't need to know too much. She knew that Li Shiming would tell her whatever he wanted to say.
If I don't say it, it will be inconvenient to explain.
Three days later, Li Yuanba appeared in the Wanshou Sect of Dongqi Continent. He came to escort Yin Shilan.
This time, the phantom clone will still follow Yin Shilan. The phantom clone now has another Nascent Soul, which comes from the Nascent Soul of the great monk Le of the Feiyu Sect.
The Nascent Soul of a peak great monk allows the phantom clone to exert the combat power of a true peak great monk. Combined with the combat power of Li Yuanba, Lei Gong, Golden Winged Dapeng, late-stage golden corpse, etc., let alone escorting Yin Shilan, it is enough even to attack the mountain gate of a large sect.
Li Yuanba gave his late-stage golden corpse to his phantom clone, so that the phantom clone had three late-stage golden corpses with him. After he possessed Lei Gong, he really no longer needed the late-stage golden corpse.
Several people sat on the fourth-grade top-level "Duxu Shuttle" and went from the sea to the Luanfeng Palace in Zhongzhou Continent.
It is estimated that even if there is a force that wants to ambush Yin Shilan, they will not be able to find her in the ocean.
After seeing Yin Shilan off, Li Shiming once again went to the place where Thunder God was refined before. In his hand was the corpse of Lian Lei, a half-step great man.
After summarizing the last refining process, he was ready to make persistent efforts and refine another half-step powerful fighter.
That is to say, his soul is strong enough, otherwise one Thunder God would fill up the space of his soul contract.
Based on his 191 brains, he can probably sign 191 powerful master contracts like Lei Gong, but he is far from reaching his limit at the moment.
The same operation, but the strength of the half-step great power Lian Lei is greater than that of the half-step great power Yang Xing. Li Shiming hopes that the refined corpse can surpass Lei Gong in strength.
Of course, the changes in the refining this time are not big, and both Half-step Mighty Lian Lei and Half-step Mighty Yang Xing are half-step Mighty thunder cultivators of Yuqing Sect. It is estimated that the rules and imprints of the refined corpses in the end will not have much difference.
Only in some details, thanks to his previous experience, he was able to find better ways to handle things through IBM z15.
