Cultivation is just so scientific!-Chapter 589 - 341: Disturbance

Patriarch Weng Zhao’s flying boat changed direction multiple times, finally stopping near a large mountain waterfall.

He did not go to any stronghold but found this place devoid of any spiritual energy, planning to rest first and suppress his injuries.

He no longer trusted the former strongholds of the Skywalk Trading Company, suspecting that Skywalk Trading Company had long been targeted on the Beishu Continent, hence every stronghold had been under surveillance.

Moreover, he didn’t trust his own senses, as he hadn’t detected anyone monitoring him, but the explosion at the secret stronghold made him realize he was definitely under surveillance.

Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental that the moment he entered the cave, the Formation of the cave changed, followed immediately by the explosion?

With a wave of his hand, Patriarch Weng Zhao released a red sword light from within his body, which carved out a temporary cave behind the waterfall.

It was only in such an emergency situation that he would use a fourth-grade life-bound magical treasure to dig a temporary cave.

The temporary cave was constructed in just over ten breaths’ time. After entering the cave, he took out a Fourth-grade Array Plate and activated it, enveloping the cave with a Formation.

A tired Patriarch Weng Zhao then took out a Pu’er tea cake, a rare treasure that enhances cultivation speed and also aids in a bit of injury recovery when he was hurt.

He sat cross-legged on the Pu’er tea cake, took out a jade bottle, and swallowed a fourth-grade healing Spirit Pill.

The Nascent Soul Ancestor’s body was extremely powerful; harming it was very difficult, and consequently, recovery from injuries was even more difficult.

This time, Patriarch Weng Zhao was gravely injured. The combined strike from six Nascent Soul Ancestors had forced him to detonate his Nascent Soul Dharma Manifestation, and he had then endured a horrific explosive blast. Any of these injuries could have killed an ordinary cultivator countless times.

Although he was still alive, his injuries had always been suppressed.

If it weren’t for finding himself in the enemy-encircled environment of the Beishu Continent, he would have long sought a secluded place to heal.

Now, the more he delayed, the more trouble his injuries became.

He slowly closed his eyes; his internal spiritual energy began to circulate, a red flame rising from within his body to help activate the medical power of the healing Spirit Pill.

Inside his body, the tiny Nascent Soul did the same, its small face filled with solemnity.

Li Shiming appeared five hundred Baili away from the waterfall. Based on the analysis of Weng Zhao’s body posture and behavior through his life-bound magical treasure IBMz15, there was a very high chance that Weng Zhao was severely injured.

Having seen Weng Zhao dig out a temporary cave, he guessed that Weng Zhao was preparing to heal.

However, he didn’t want Weng Zhao to have the chance to heal. The stronger the cultivation realm of a cultivator, the less susceptible they are to injuries, and the more severe the consequences after being injured.

After thinking it over, he released three Peak Iron Corpses, each a Three-headed and Six-armed Peak Iron Corpse.

These three Iron Corpses had endured prolonged lightning attacks within the Corpses Refining space of his Space Ring, greatly enhancing their resistance to lightning.

When he was at the Foundation Establishment stage, the Three-headed and Six-armed Peak Iron Corpses were of help to him, but after he became a Golden Core cultivator, their usefulness had greatly diminished. freewebnøvel.com

Especially after he had slain many Golden Core cultivators at the secret stronghold of the Skywalk Trading Company, obtaining numerous Golden Core Stage bodies, he could refine more corpses any time, even directly creating Silver Corpses from Golden Core Stage bodies.

Of course, Li Shiming did not plan for the Three-headed and Six-armed Iron Corpses to die; he had a plan, and there was still a possibility for these Iron Corpses to survive.

He divided his brain into three, controlling each of the Three-headed and Six-armed Iron Corpses, each carrying a storage bag.

The three Iron Corpses raced forward, this sprinting proving to be even faster than their flying ability.

At thirty Baili away from the waterfall, the three Iron Corpses stopped.

Completely controlled by Li Shiming, each Iron Corpse fetched a cannon from their storage bags.

The cannon was a type of long-range artillery with considerable power. Created by Li Shiming based on data repositories, it was an achievement of research from his previous life.

Such research achievements were all stored inside the Mustard Seed Ring in the machine room space, considered as collectibles that marked his accomplishments.

The three cannons, devoid of any cultivation techniques, saw the Iron Corpses’ six arms, under Li Shiming’s control, deftly loading the explosive shells into the cannon, a job requiring multiple people comfortably handled by a single Iron Corpse.

Li Shiming had no illusions that three cannons would achieve any significant military results; this was simply impossible.

Unless he could combine heavy artillery with cultivation techniques to develop a type of artillery and shells against cultivators, such cannons were nothing more than playthings for a Nascent Soul Ancestor.

With precise calculations from his life-bound treasure IBMz15, the three cannons, adjusted by the Iron Corpses, were immediately fired.

Three explosive shells traveled thirty Baili and heavily struck the waterfall, seemingly causing rocks to fly, but in reality, they did not even shake the Formation of the temporary cave at all.

Yet such an attack still alerted Patriarch Weng Zhao. He was forced to cease the operation of his cultivation technique, causing his slightly recovered complexion to worsen once again.

By disrupting the healing process, not only did his injuries fail to recover much, but the abrupt cessation also caused his injuries to worsen.
