Cultivation is just so scientific!

`That was because Li Yuanba was the reincarnation of a certain Bodhisattva, who in his previous life had mastered Divine Foot Skill, which is why he was able to cultivate 'Step by Step Lotus' to such a level so easily in this life.

Zhi Ming Arhat didn't guess that it was the reincarnation of a Buddhist Venerable, because mastering Divine Foot Skill to the extent of carrying the divine skills through reincarnation is definitely not something a Buddhist Venerable could do.

This was a major matter, a Bodhisattva reincarnated and fell into the Demon Sect, which was intolerable for the Buddhist Sect.

If the reincarnated Bodhisattva were to be taken back to the temple, with the foundation of the reincarnated Bodhisattva, it would be inevitable for him to become a Venerable in the future, and there might even be a possibility of returning to his Bodhisattva status.

If Qianye Temple had a Bodhisattva presiding, then Qianye Temple would leap to become the strongest sect on the Beishu Continent.

The more he thought about it, the more excited Zhi Ming Arhat became, and he immediately contacted Qianye Temple, and reported this discovery to Qianye Temple.

Not to mention Zhi Ming Arhat and Qianye Temple's speculation about Li Yuanba's identity, Li Yuanba, after displaying 'Step by Step Lotus', finally managed to leave Zhi Ming Arhat far behind.

This was his first time using 'Step by Step Lotus' to shake off a Golden Core cultivator, and he found that the speed of 'Step by Step Lotus' truly could surpass that of Golden Core cultivators, which greatly relieved him.

On the other side, Li Shiming sensed his incarnation Li Yuanba's encounter, activated the 'Charming Soul Concealing Secret Technique', and executed 'Step by Step Lotus', no longer considering the rendezvous point, and headed towards Li Yuanba.

His use of 'Step by Step Lotus' was more covert, once the 'Charming Soul Concealing Secret Technique' was activated, as long as he was in the shadows, he could achieve the effect of invisibility.

He no longer used 'Step by Step Lotus' in the sky, but instead kept himself invisible on the ground, continuously teleporting by using various shadows.

The distance of 'Step by Step Lotus' had reached 260 meters, in such a distance, how could there be no shadow at all?

With the assistance of IBMz15 making judgments for him, although the first interval of using 'Step by Step Lotus' was so short that there wasn't even time to think, his spirit had reached the level of a Golden Core cultivator, and with the help of IBMz15, he could maintain the highest speed while remaining invisible.

This mode of movement was something he had thought of recently, to save his life in critical moments.

Originally, it would have taken several days to meet up, but after the frenzied use of 'Step by Step Lotus' by both the main body, Li Shiming, and the incarnation, Li Yuanba, they met within a couple of hours.

The first thing the incarnation Li Yuanba did when he met up with the main body Li Shiming was to take the wooden pass into Li Shiming's machine room space, and then they moved together to another location and set up an isolation and concealment formation.

"Fellow, we meet again!" Li Shiming said with a smile.

"Fellow, I need your help again!" The incarnation Li Yuanba also said with a smile.

Since they are the same person, there's no need for any formalities.

Li Shiming took out the top-grade Spirit Pills he had prepared, all of them Cultivation Assistance Spirit Pills for middle late-stage Foundation Establishment, enough for Li Yuanba to cultivate to the peak of Foundation Establishment.

Being able to have such accumulations, and Li Shiming still reserving his own portion, all thanks to Beishu Trading Company.

He made Spirit Pills for Beishu Trading Company in a very large quantity, which a single sect could not satisfy in terms of his Alchemy capabilities.

Beishu Trading Company is the largest trading company in Beishu with six major sects behind it, as well as partners all over Beishu, which allowed it to obtain a number of Spiritual Medicines that exceeds any single large sect.

Of course, some of the Spirit Pill tasks that Li Shiming made were not for external sales but were orders from other large sects placed with Beishu Trading Company.

Without going through the channel of Beishu Trading Company, these large sects couldn't ask for Li Shiming's services, since after all, Li Shiming is the True Inheritor of Alchemy of the Shushan Sect, and wouldn't help other large sects make Spirit Pills openly.

`

It was precisely due to these reasons that Li Shiming was able to amass so many top-tier Spirit Pills in just over a year.

After all, the supply was sufficient for both him and his clone, Li Yuanba, to cultivate; and in the future, he would continue to produce Spirit Pills for his sect and Beishu Trading Company. If there were ever any insufficiencies for his original body, he could make up for it later on.

Li Yuanba had also prepared some items and placed them into a storage bag to give to Li Shiming. These included a complete set of resources for pill creation. Once Li Shiming's alchemy skills reached the level of an Alchemy Master, he would be able to concoct them.

Of course, the amount of Spiritual Medicine available for pill creation resources was, at most, enough to make three pills. This level of proficiency required the top Alchemy Masters, as an average Alchemy Master would do well to achieve a yield of one to two Spirit Pills.

Therefore, the compensation given to Alchemy Masters for producing such Spirit Pills wasn't just the allocation of the pills themselves but also other rewards.

Li Shiming could entrust this set of pill creation resources to Elder Ma, his master, and he would immediately receive a complete set of Vessel Protecting Pills, Soul Stabilizing Pills, Resurrection Pills, and Mountain-breaking Pills.

However, he couldn't guarantee that Elder Ma could achieve a yield of more than two pills per furnace. Additionally, he, as a disciple, would need to pay the compensation due to the Alchemy Master, as it was the rule among alchemists, and no one could break it.

He wasn't in a rush anyway, so he'd rather wait until he was capable enough to conduct the alchemy himself. In the machine room space, he was confident of achieving full yield, and with the "Hundred One-point Pill Technique," he would be able to obtain up to six of each type of pill in a complete set.

The storage bag also contained a large number of Foundation Establishment Cultivators' corpses, all of whom had been slain by Li Yuanba.

The majority of these were Buddhist corpses, followed by Devil Cultivator corpses.

Li Shiming was not far from the late stage of Foundation Establishment. He had already planned to refine all the Peak Iron Corpses, as his spirit was strong enough, and as long as he reached the realm, he would be able to suppress them completely.

The reason he needed so many Foundation Establishment Cultivator corpses was to transform the Peak Iron Corpses into beings with three heads and six arms. With Nezha being a successful example, modification wasn't a difficult task.

It's important to note that although Nezha had few opportunities to participate in battles, his performance was exceptionally remarkable, enhancing the Iron Corpse's strength by at least thirty to forty percent.

If Li Shiming hadn't had access to so many Foundation Establishment Cultivator corpses, he wouldn't have considered modifying the Iron Corpses. However, Li Yuanba had killed many cultivators in Senluo Sect over the years, leaving behind plenty of Foundation Establishment corpses. It made more sense to use these for his own power enhancement rather than selling them off.

Given his current status, the resources that a Foundation Establishment Cultivator could obtain were easily accessible to him, and there was no longer a need to sell off the spoils of battle.

Especially since this time, after exchanging resources with his clone, Li Yuanba, he had acquired enough to reach the peak of late-stage Foundation Establishment without having to worry about resources.

The storage bag handed over by Li Yuanba also contained twelve Third-grade needle-shaped Spiritual Artifacts and the "Youth Flower."

What interested Li Shiming the most was the "Youth Flower," which he had taken into the machine room space. The Three-Revolution Heavenly Treasure Furnace in the machine room space had already been preheated with the Red Bright Spirit Fire.

Concocting the Youthful Elixir wasn't difficult. After perceiving the medicinal power of the "Youth Flower" in the machine room space, although it was his first encounter with it, he quickly became familiar with its medicinal properties due to his micrometer-level sensitivity and control.

As he concocted more and more Spirit Pills in the machine room space, he was able to form a complete set of data with the help of IBMz15 for not just First and Second Grade Spirit Medicine, but even Third-grade Spirit Medicine, based on his experience and micrometer-level observation.

This was a reflection of the growth in his alchemy skills. Now, even with new Spirit Pills, as long as they were within his alchemical mastery, he could easily achieve perfection.

While there might be slight imperfections when concocting pills outside the machine room space, such possibilities were completely avoided within it.

More than two hours later, medicinal power rose above the Three-Revolution Heavenly Treasure Furnace, and with precision, Li Shiming implemented the "Hundred One-point Pill Technique." Next to the ten forming Spirit Pills in the furnace, ten pill phantoms appeared.

Spiritual Power gathered towards the ten pill phantoms in the furnace from all directions. He had long set up a Gathering Spirit Array in the machine room space, using Mid-grade Spirit Stones, ensuring there wouldn't be an issue with insufficient spiritual power.
