Chapter 542: Chapter 317 Golden Core_2
If Li Shiming were to fail at forming his Golden Core, he would beco one of the examples of failure, and the most notorious one at that.
Li Shiming scratched his head in embarrassnt. There were indeed so things that were hard to explain; his audacity in those days had been far too great.
People say that the older you get in the Martial World, the more timid you beco. This saying is absolutely true.
In his early days of cultivation, having never received teachings from a master, he had based most of his cultivation concepts on his own conjectures.
As a result, he ended up with a “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” inside his body, and at the ti of Golden Core formation, he ford five Golden Cores arranged in a “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array.”
“Master!” Li Shiming bowed his head.
“Don’t you ever try to emulate him. Even if you had a hundred lives, it wouldn’t be enough to take such risks!” Elder Su turned and instructed the three Late-stage Foundation Establishnt Disciples.
In fact, there was no need for his instructions; just thinking about the five Heavenly Thunders that had struck earlier sent shivers down the souls of the three disciples.
Even though Li Shiming had successfully advanced to the Golden Core Stage, they had no intention of regarding him as a role model.
Li Shiming was fortunate, but they didn’t believe their own fortune was as great as his.
“You should go into seclusion for a while to stabilize your realm. Elder Ma and I still have to go out and explain the matter of the five Heavenly Thunders!” Knowing that Li Shiming needed rest, Elder Su gestured for the disciples to follow him and leave, but before leaving, he gave Li Shiming further instructions.
The outside world was probably in chaos by now; the impact of the five Heavenly Thunders was too great.
“Thank you for your trouble, Master!” Li Shiming said with a bow.
Elder Ma nodded at Li Shiming. He did not speak; Li Shiming was only his Registered Disciple, and it was Elder Su’s place to speak at a ti like this.
Soon, only Li Shiming was left on the peak of Sword Holding Peak.
Golden Core Stage, a realm in Sky Sea Island he had once only aspired to, he had now attained it.
A lifespan of five hundred years would be enough for a family in the mortal world to pass on its legacy for more than a dozen generations.
Although mortals could live to a hundred at most, generational inheritance was calculated every thirty years. Thirty years per generation is the ti it takes for a child to grow to adulthood, and after reaching thirty, a person slowly ages.
A Golden Core cultivator, within the secular world, is akin to an immortal being.
When his alter ego, Li Yuanba, advanced to the Golden Core Stage, perhaps because the advancent went too smoothly, or perhaps it was because the advancent of a clone did not actually grant a lifespan of five hundred years, he did not have the sa feeling as he did now.
He was unable to determine if the death of the main body would an that the clone, Li Yuanba, would continue to live; it was most likely that he would die as well.
However, after the main body ford a Golden Core, it truly ant a lifespan of five hundred years.
Even with Li Shiming’s temperant, he sat cross-legged in his cave dwelling for several two-hour periods before he finally cald his mind.
He needed to plan his cultivation for the upcoming period. He was not worried about his Body Refining Techniques; he could continue practicing the “Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill” that corresponded to the Golden Core stage.
As for the other Body Refining Technique, the “Sword Demon Secret Manual,” his clone, Li Yuanba, had already practiced it. Having a close-range longsword magical treasure was a significant advantage. The best aspect of this magical treasure was that it could enhance itself as his physical body strengthened.
This was akin to a growing magical treasure, and coupled with its unique property of rging with the body, it served as one of his ultimate life-saving asures.
In terms of Cultivation Techniques, he continued to practice two simultaneously, with the “Five Elents Qi Refining Technique” as the primary technique and the “Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Technique” as the secondary technique.
Furthermore, he had to study the “Heavenly Sound Secret Manual,” a Sound Cultivation Technique. Combined with his created “Heavenly Demon Entering the Ear” Secret Technique, it would greatly amplify the power of the “Heavenly Sound Secret Manual.”
Most importantly, the “Heavenly Sound Secret Manual” could initiate a wide-reaching group attack through a magical ancient zither. It was a particularly difficult soundwave attack to defend against. If supplented by the “Heavenly Demon Entering the Ear” Secret Technique, it could even generate a wide-ranging, group spiritual attack.
Of course, to achieve the effect of a wide-ranging, group spiritual attack, he still needed to figure out how to integrate the “Heavenly Demon Entering the Ear” Secret Technique into the soundwave attack of the “Heavenly Sound Secret Manual.”
His thoughts then turned to Alchemy. With a flicker of his spirit, the Red Sun Spirit Fire flew from within his body and landed in his hand.
This ti, upon advancing to the Golden Core, the Red Sun Spiritual Fire also benefited; the very essence of the Spiritual Fire grew sowhat larger.
Through the “Spirit Fla Control Fire Technique,” Shiming perceived that the quality of the Red Sun Spiritual Fire was undergoing a transformation. He believed it wouldn’t take long before it could be elevated to a Third-grade Spirit Fire.
This was to be expected, as such spirit fires that bond with their owner are closely linked to the master’s realm.
However, after advancing to the Golden Core, the connection between the Red Sun Spiritual Fire and him had beco irrevocably bound; just now, when he summoned the Red Sun Spiritual Fire, he did so from above the fire attribute Golden Core.
For the mont, the Red Sun Spiritual Fire simply lingered above the fire attribute Golden Core. After so ti when his realm had stabilized, the Red Sun Spiritual Fire would be able to enter the fire attribute Golden Core.
Then, even if other cultivators wished to seize the Red Sun Spiritual Fire, they would be unable to do so, for the Red Sun Spiritual Fire that he released would consist only of the fla portion, while its core would forever remain inside the fire attribute Golden Core.
Once the Red Sun Spiritual Fire entered the fire attribute Golden Core, both the Red Sun Spiritual Fire and the fire attribute Golden Core would reap significant benefits.
The Red Sun Spiritual Fire would be nurtured by the fire attribute Golden Core, quickening its growth.
And with the presence of the Red Sun Spiritual Fire, the fire property quality of the Golden Core was bound for an imnse enhancent.
Had it not been for Li Shiming’s five Golden Cores, which were arranged as nodes of the “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” formation, capable of automatically balancing the spiritual power within, the addition of the Red Sun Spiritual Fire into the fire attribute Golden Core might have led to an imbalance of spiritual power among the five Golden Cores.
Now, with the “Five Elents Qi Absorption Array” in place, there was no such concern.
Once the Red Sun Spiritual Fire advanced to Third-grade, he would consider refining Spirit Pills that primarily used two types of Third-grade Spiritual dicine as the main ingredients.
Moreover, to enhance his Artifact Refining level, it was necessary for the Red Sun Spiritual Fire to reach Third-grade, or for the Golden Core to be able to stably emit pill fire.
According to the experiences of his clone Li Yuanba, for the Golden Core to stably emit pill fire might require over a month of cultivation.
He also needed to start considering the matter of his life-bound magical treasure, first taking out the Fourth-grade Flying Sword he had obtained from Supervisor Feng Yi of the False Infant Sealing Instrunt. It was the highest-grade flying sword magical treasure he had seen so far.
However, when his Divine Thought entered the Fourth-grade Flying Sword Magical Treasure, he realized that his current spiritual power was not sufficient to bond with this Fourth-grade Flying Sword Magical Treasure.
Inside the Fourth-grade Flying Sword Magical Treasure, there was sothing indescribable. While he was unable to perceive it during the Foundation Establishnt Stage, now at the Golden Core Stage, he could sense it but didn’t know what it was.
All he knew was that whatever was inside the Fourth-grade Flying Sword Magical Treasure was of a much higher level. At least, it was beyond what his current spiritual power could master.
“No wonder only Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators are allowed to handle Fourth-grade Magical Treasures!” Li Shiming murmured to himself.
If he couldn’t bond with this Fourth-grade Flying Sword Magical Treasure, there was even less hope for the other Fourth-grade Jade Ruler.
Actually, even if he could have bonded with the Fourth-grade Flying Sword Magical Treasure, he wouldn’t have considered it for his life-bound magical treasure.
Because he had long harbored his own ideas for his life-bound magical treasure, having decided on it a long ti ago.
His mind entered the server room space, where the IBMz15 was running.
He looked at the IBMz15, this large server that had traveled through ti with him.
Though the IBMz15 appeared similar to its counterpart from his previous life, its essence had long since diverged.
After the transition, the IBMz15 experienced so inexplicable changes; it seed unchanged on the surface, but it had beco indestructible.
He had discovered this much earlier. It’s common knowledge that large servers have a lifespan, with server components typically lasting 3-5 years.
Of course, that doesn’t an that a large server would imdiately break down after that ti, but once the lifespan is reached, the performance starts to decline, and the likelihood of malfunctions increases.
But the IBMz15 that accompanied Li Shiming through his travels did not exhibit this problem. This IBMz15 had been operational for over ten years, and its components were still as good as when they first transcended ti.
To a certain extent, the IBMz15 could no longer be considered a re mortal instrunt. Since it wasn’t, he thought of trying to refine it. After all, whether successful or not, the IBMz15 wouldn’t suffer any damage.
