But he thought of the original Li Shiming’s Fake Infant Dao Body supervised by Feng Yi. The Fake Infant Dao Body was still alive, yet due to the limitations of its own realm, it couldn’t utilize the Fake Infant Dao Body to fight.
“This Third Grade Fierce Ghost might still be too weak!” He sensed the situation of the Third Grade Fierce Ghost again and made his judgment.
Through Li Shiming, he could feel the might of the Fake Infant Dao Body. In his estimation, even if the Third Grade Fierce Ghost used a Secret Technique, it would probably not dare to possess the body of the Fake Infant Dao Body.
However, this was a direction, as long as he continued to cultivate the Third Grade Fierce Ghost, once it could safely possess the Fake Infant Dao Body, he would be able to wield the combat power of the Fake Infant Dao Body.
Li Yuanba was aware of the capability of the Fake Infant Dao Body. Even though he was now a Golden Core Sword Cultivator with formidable combat strength, facing the Fake Infant Dao Body head-on, it would be extremely difficult to breach its defenses.
He could hardly imagine having any opponents in the Golden Core Stage that could contend with him once he harnessed the power of the Fake Infant Dao Body.
He didn’t believe that wielding the Ten Thousand Sword Peak Treasure truly made him invincible. Although the Ten Thousand Sword Peak Treasure was extremely troublesome to refine, there would definitely be treasures of similar power within the long-standing great sects.
Such powerful treasures would only be inherited by the most central successors of the great sects.
It’s just like the Ten Thousand Sword Peak, which was passed down to Li Yuanba by Elder Jian. Li Yuanba benefited from the profound foundation of a large sect like the Senluo Sect; otherwise, coming from a medium or small-sized sect, how could a disciple so freshly inducted get his hands on something as excellent as the Ten Thousand Sword Peak Treasure.
Li Yuanba wasn’t too worried about the improvement of the Third Grade Fierce Ghost’s strength.
As long as he sent the Ghost Banner Treasure to Li Shiming, Li Shiming had enough resources to enhance the strength of the Third Grade Fierce Ghost.
Of course, the premise of all this was that Li Shiming needed to form his Golden Core. Without reaching the Golden Core Realm, even a treasure couldn’t recognize its master, let alone control the Third Grade Fierce Ghost.
Li Yuanba used his Divine Thought to calm the Third Grade Fierce Ghost and then stored away the Ghost Banner Treasure.
In the following half-month, his life was very stable. With a single sword strike, he killed the Red-eyed Blood Demon, dissuading any Golden Core cultivators who had the idea of challenging him.
After another half-month, another fearless Golden Core cultivator came to challenge him, but the result was still the same—he was slain with a single sword stroke.
After this, no more Golden Core cultivators came forward to issue a challenge, and Li Yuanba finally had some real peace.
At the Shushan Sect, it took Li Shiming several months; he learned a lot of knowledge.
He became an Array Master in the field of formations. In talisman crafting, he could draw Second Grade talismans without a single failed attempt. On the path of the zither, he also successfully made his entry, becoming a cultivator who mastered sound attacks.
Even in the field of Spirit Plants, he raised his own level to high-grade. The reason why he couldn’t advance further was that his realm wasn’t sufficient to master the higher spells of Spirit Plants.
During the bottleneck at the peak of Foundation Establishment, he went through all the knowledge he had wanted to learn but never had the time to before.
Unfortunately, he was still at Half-step Golden Core and still couldn’t grasp the opportunity for the final half-step.
One day, after sunrise, he didn’t feel like doing anything at all.
He didn’t practice the zither, didn’t draw talismans, didn’t engage in alchemy, didn’t take care of his Spirit Plants, and didn’t conduct scientific research. Gazing at the sky, he suddenly felt the desire to visit the Thirty-Three Heavens.
A Half-step Golden Core could forcibly reach the first layer of the Thirty-Three Heavens. Although one couldn’t stay for long, there wouldn’t be any danger to life.
Ascending to the skies also meant leaving the sect, but the high skies above the sect, even without the protection of the Sect Formation, were under the Sect Formation’s surveillance.
Apart from cultivators of their own sect, no cultivators from other sects would dare to fly in the skies above the Sect Formation. That would be an act of provocation against the sect, and being killed would lead to no one raising objections.
Without informing anyone, Li Shiming spurred his flying sword, ascending rapidly.
At ten thousand meters high, when he released his Divine Thought, he sensed the existence of the Thirty-Three Heavens.
The fierce winds raged overhead, but an invisible membrane blocked them, preventing the winds from affecting the space below the Thirty-Three Heavens.
Li Shiming stood ten thousand meters high, gazing down at the landscape below, while at the same time, channeling the Spiritual Power within his body to form a protective barrier around himself.
He took a deep breath and ascended several meters, feeling as though he had passed through a membrane.
Afterward, he felt a fierce wind raging around him. This was no ordinary wind but a type of mystical wind that could affect both the bodies and souls of cultivators.
The wind, blasting against his body, caused his Spiritual Power shield, which was maintained by Spiritual Power, to dissipate almost instantly without even lasting a single moment.
His body was exposed to the raging wind, which ignored the physical aspect of his body and penetrated into him, attempting to blow away his internal Spiritual Energy.
What was even more terrifying was that the wind was also blowing away at his soul.
The realm of a Half-step Golden Core enabled his internal Spiritual Power to be as solid as reality, and although the wind was fierce, it would not be able to blow away his Spiritual Power in a short time.
As for his soul, it was even stronger due to its inherent resilience, allowing it to withstand the wind far longer than it would take to blow away the internal Spiritual Power.
This gave him time to experience the legendary Thirty-Three Heavens. This place was just the One Layer Heaven, but already it was a place where ordinary cultivators could not tread. freewёbnoνel.com
He attempted to release a fireball, a most common spell. Given his realm of Half-step Golden Core, it had considerable power.
This lowest-tier Fire Bomb Skill, which he could execute instantaneously, was impossible to even condense into a spell pattern within the One Layer Heaven.
If even this lowest-tier Fire Bomb Skill couldn’t be executed, there was no need to mention the higher-level spells.
Unless his Spiritual Power became more condensed, it would be dispersed by the wind within the One Layer Heaven. It seemed that should he enter the Golden Core Realm, his Spiritual Power would be able to exist independent of his body in such environments.
He took out a drone from the space within. The drone had no cultivation techniques within it; he had not even used the Spirit Stone Batteries he had recently made progress researching, but had stuck with the most primitive batteries instead.
He had researched the Thirty-Three Heavens before, but those were done from outside the Thirty-Three Heavens, sending objects into it without being able to directly observe the changes within.
Now that he could spend a short time in the One Layer Heaven, the idea of conducting new experiments came to him.
The drone was taken out and activated, and the fearsome wind could not affect the drone.
He had known this, but after personally experiencing the depth of the wind’s terror, he felt even more keenly the peculiarities of the Thirty-Three Heavens.
The Thirty-Three Heavens seemed designed to contain Spiritual Energy, leaving all non-Spiritual Energy objects untouched by the wind.
He conducted a few more experiments, such as trying to arrange a formation to isolate the wind of the Thirty-Three Heavens.
However, he soon realized that no matter what he did, once he entered the Thirty-Three Heavens, the wind would penetrate it. Even his Space Ring almost got breached by the wind.
If it were not for his quick reaction, pulling the Space Ring into his cabin’s space in time, the Spiritual Objects inside might have all been destroyed.
It was only because his power was too weak to protect his own Space Ring that such a situation occurred.
For the sake of experimentation, he lost several Second Grade Array Flags. He did not dare to use Third Grade Array Flags for the experiments as they were simply too precious to risk.
With his realm, he was not yet capable of crafting Third Grade Array Flags on his own. The Third Grade Array Flags he had were traded with Spirit Pills, numbering a total of one hundred and eight, the exact amount required to set up a complete formation.
After persisting in the One Layer Heaven for the duration of thirty minutes, Li Shiming had no choice but to retreat from the One Layer Heaven.
If he stayed within the One Layer Heaven any longer, the wind would blow the Spiritual Power out of his body, and his Body Refinement and Cultivation Realm would decline. At a critical time like Half-step Golden Core Realm, such an event could affect his chances of advancing to the Golden Core.
He dared not take such matters lightly and chose to withdraw proactively a little before reaching his limit.
