Chapter 262: Chapter 177 Cultivation_2

The foundation in the Qi Refinement Realm does not equate to the strength in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he merely had a stronger physique and Spiritual Thought compared to an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator, and could match an experienced Foundation Establishment Cultivator in terms of Spiritual Power quality. However, he absolutely could not compare in terms of total Spiritual Power and combat techniques.

The combat method of the “Sword Manipulation Technique” was outdated. If he wanted stronger sword control capabilities, he must master the flying sword skills of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

At the same time, he needed to start cultivating the Foundation Establishment chapters of the “Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill” and “Sword Demon Secret Manual”. Fortunately, both the “Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill” and “Sword Demon Secret Manual” were complete, which spared him the trouble of considering issues related to Body Refinement.

The various application methods in the “Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Technique” also needed to be learned and practiced.

All in all, he barely managed to review all the necessary Foundation Establishment Stage knowledge in one tightly packed day.

He found that reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage did not give him any leisure; instead, he became busier.

At night, he did not rest and continued to cultivate the “Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Technique” at the outlet of the Top-grade Spirit Veins. After the Foundation Establishment Stage, there was no time limit to cultivation; as long as he felt his body could endure, he could keep cultivating.

But the main cultivation technique was only a part of his strength, and the place where he resided was not safe; he needed to quickly master the combat capabilities of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

The next morning, at the same spot on the mountaintop, he sat cross-legged in the usual posture; however, unlike yesterday morning, there was an extra two-person tall concave mirror beside him.

The placement of the concave mirror was calculated strictly using the IBMz15, and when the first ray of sunlight appeared below the horizon, Li Shiming’s body actively absorbed a wisp of purple aura that shone upon him. The concave mirror next to him reflected the first ray of sunlight onto his body.

The concave mirror was no ordinary mirror, but a special mirror that Li Shiming created based on the principles of the Fresnel lens.

The Fresnel lens collected the reflected sunlight and focused it onto Li Shiming’s body, allowing him to fully receive the sunlight reflected from the two-person high concave mirror.

A slight smile appeared on Li Shiming’s face; he felt his body absorb a wisp of purple aura from the reflected sunlight.

This meant his idea was correct; next, he needed to design a large-scale concave mirror array to gather more purple aura for him.

Of course, this idea was currently just in the design stage, and to actually create it, he needed a large amount of materials on one hand, and on the other hand, a proper place that he could fully control without disturbances.

Another ten days passed, and Li Shiming’s intensive and enriched cultivation life continued. His clone and the Three-headed Six-armed Iron Corpse finally completed their promotions.

The clone in Iron Corpse State and the Three-headed Six-armed Iron Corpse stood together, almost identical in their ferocious teeth and blood-red eyes, but the Three-headed Six-armed Iron Armor was three times larger than the clone’s.

For a long time afterward, both the Three-headed Six-armed Iron Corpse and the clone in Iron Corpse State frequently entered the “Netherworld Ghost Realm Array” to strengthen.

Although already in Iron Corpse State, the Iron Corpse State is also divided into three phases: primary, middle, and advanced. Currently, both the clone and the Three-headed Six-armed Iron Corpse were in the Primary Iron Corpse State.

The clone switched back to human form. He was not just cultivating in Corpse Refining State; the most important thing was mastering combat capabilities and cultivating his main cultivation technique.

“Fellow, I should give you a name. How about Li Yuanba?” the original body asked with a smile.

The clone possessed a fixed consciousness and was no longer an unconscious puppet-like existence after reclaiming consciousness as before.

At this time, the clone, apart from having a somewhat peculiar Iron Corpse State, was no different from a real Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

“Li Yuanba meets fellow!” the clone said with a laugh, bowing in a salute.

The two exchanged smiles, as in this world there was no Golden Age of Tang. Therefore, probably only they knew the meaning of this name.

After the advancement of the Three-headed Six-armed Iron Corpse, Li Shiming also found that its autonomous consciousness had increased significantly, allowing it to understand his commands more clearly.

“Three-headed Six-armed, how about I call you Nezha!” Li Shiming thought and said.

He handed over the Metal attribute Spirit Sword to Li Yuanba as the reward for the competition against Beishu Mingxin Sect and selected an exceptionally high-quality Spiritual Defense Shield from the spoils as a backup Magic Artifact for Li Yuanba.

The reason it’s called a backup magic artifact is that Li Yuanba was preparing to cultivate the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique.”

For a Sword Cultivator, there is only one magic artifact, and that is the sword; it is better to focus all one’s spirit on strengthening one’s own sword than to be distracted by other magic artifacts.

The number one rank of the Sword Cultivation Technique isn’t just for show; though Li Shiming didn’t want to change anything, he hoped that Li Yuanba would still possess some defensive capabilities before he truly became a Sword Cultivator.

As for Nezha, he chose a set of Spiritual Armor. This piece of armor, named “Flowing Light Dazzling Armor,” had the greatest advantage of transforming into any armor shape as long as the size did not exceed the original material’s limitations.

So even if Nezha had three heads and six arms, the “Flowing Light Dazzling Armor” still managed to fit his entire body, specifically designed to protect the six arms and three heads; the hem of the “Flowing Light Dazzling Armor” was noticeably shorter.

Li Yuanba placed the golden Jade Scroll containing the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique” on his forehead, just as his original body had watched the “Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Technique.” After reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage, he read all the contents of the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique” Foundation Establishment chapter.

Li Shiming also sat beside him, recording the Foundation Establishment chapter of the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique” from Li Yuanba into an IBMz15.

“It seems I don’t need to look for any Sword Control Techniques anymore!” Li Shiming said, smiling as he read the content of the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique” Foundation Establishment chapter.

Although he couldn’t cultivate the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique”, the Sword Control skills within the Foundation Establishment chapter were still usable by him.

Furthermore, as Li Yuanba cultivated the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique,” aside from the unique Spiritual Power Pattern produced by the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique,” Li Shiming was able to use all other techniques.

As a top-tier cultivation technique, the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique” also had stringent cultivation requirements, demanding mastery of Sword Intent to learn this technique.

Li Shiming didn’t understand how one could master Sword Intent at the Foundation Establishment Stage. If it weren’t for his acquisition of the Sword Bone, he might not have even heard of Sword Intent until now, let alone learned it.

His perspective was limited; being on Sky Sea Island, the seven sects had no Sword Cultivator inheritance, so there was no means to cultivate Sword Intent.

However, within a true great sect, the inheritance of Sword Cultivators included both materials and knowledge accumulated.

Just like Sword Intent, one could gain it by observing the sword marks left by predecessors or cultivating a certain lower-level Sword Cultivation Technique.

All these required the heritage of a sect, which also meant that Sword Cultivators were almost monopolized by the great sects.

Even if a Loose Cultivator with an extraordinary talent appeared and cultivated Sword Intent, without the inheritance of Sword Cultivators, they were merely a fleeting phenomenon.

After thoroughly reading the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique” Foundation Establishment chapter, Li Shiming knew he was right not to let Li Yuanba use the “Five Elements Qi Absorption Array” to break through.

To cultivate the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique,” aside from Sword Intent, one must also possess a Metal Spirit Root and cultivate Metal Spiritual Power.

Li Yuanba began cultivating the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique”; Spiritual Energy entered his body, traveled through specific meridians influenced by Sword Intent, and finally entered the Spirit Lake.

In the Spirit Lake, the Metal Spiritual Power, which was much sharper than normal Metal Spiritual Power, now carried a trace of Sword Intent-related properties.

The Spirit Lake was as if it hid countless Spirit Swords, this sharpness permeating through the lake to all parts of his body, affecting his physique.

Li Yuanba finished a round of cultivation and slowly opened his eyes, streaks of sword light flashing within them.

Although it was his first time cultivating the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique,” he already possessed the aura of a Sword Cultivator, and one could feel that he was like a sword upon seeing him.

The “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique” also had a unique method for refining Spiritual Artifacts. The Metal Spiritual Power carrying Sword Intent entered the Metal Flying Sword Spiritual Artifact, aggressively inscribing the imprint of Sword Intent within the Spiritual Artifact.

The “Gale Golden Light Sword” was the name of this Spiritual Artifact, and given its quality, there was no need to consider changing swords at least during the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Naturally, the “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique” also wouldn’t allow a Sword Cultivator to change swords casually; each sword change required a long period of seclusion to consecrate the new sword.
