Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 231: Chapter 162 Victory

Li Shiming opened his mouth and used “Oral Lotus,” the “Buddhist Light Manifests” melody emanated from his lips.

Like a brilliant Buddhist light, the intent shone from his singing, and under the control of his spiritual thought, it entered the ears of nine Beishu Qi Refining Cultivators.

For the Seven Sects cultivators who also heard “Buddhist Light Manifests,” because it was not directed at them, they were minimally affected.

On the other hand, the Beishu Qi Refining Cultivators, who were fully engaged in battle, heard this mind-affecting Buddhist melody. Even those with a firm consciousness were somewhat disturbed despite their resolve.

The Seven Sects cultivators had the advantage of numbers, and even this slight disturbance could be fatal.

Li Shiming then released the Three-headed Six-armed Copper Corpse, and the Mid-grade Magic Weapon Gatling was fully activated, targeting six Beishu Qi Refining Cultivators.

He himself did not advance and even withdrew the Broken Jade Sword to his side.

He had exhibited enough strength today, and if he didn’t recognize this as a life or death battle, he wouldn’t have chosen to reveal so much of his combat power.

It wasn’t that he was being overly cautious, but many aspects of his combat power were related to Golden Core cultivators. One misstep could lead to his death and the destruction of his Dao.

The battle had reached its final phase.

The first to be killed were the six Beishu Qi Refining Cultivators targeted by the Mid-grade Magic Weapon Gatling. Their defensive magic artifacts didn’t last long before being penetrated, and then they were either shot dead by the Gatling or killed opportunistically by the Seven Sects cultivators.

With six fewer Beishu Qi Refining Cultivators, the resistance of the few remaining seemed very feeble.

The fight ended within a few breaths; the bodies of the Beishu Qi Refining Cultivators lay scattered on the ground.

However, none of the Seven Sects cultivators took the spoils of war, but instead, they all turned their gaze to Li Shiming.

They were well aware that Li Shiming was the most credited for the victory in this skirmish. According to the rules of the Cultivation World, whoever kills the enemy claims the spoils, and additional allocation would depend on the individual contributions for joint kills.

Li Shiming, not one to stand on ceremony, swept his spiritual thought over the several dead Beishu Qi Refining Cultivators he had killed.

After he collected the spoils of war, the other Seven Sects cultivators began to clear the battlefield.

“Junior Li, these two storage bags are for you!” After exchanging opinions, the Seven Sects cultivators brought over two more storage bags and said.

Li Shiming accepted the storage bags. From this battle, he obtained five storage bags and a storage bracelet, which could be described as a great harvest.

But his keen senses detected a subtle intent to kill directed at him from the four massive flying boats, causing his hair to stand on end.

Fortunately, the grand formation of Seven Star Island flashed again, pulling back these surviving Qi Refining Cultivators.

Only when he entered Seven Star Island did the intent to kill targeting him dissipate.

Discovering that one of the Beishu Qi Refining Cultivators used a storage bracelet, combined with the earlier talismans, he was certain there was a Golden Core cultivator behind it.

What he hadn’t anticipated was that the Golden Core cultivator was present at the scene. If it weren’t for the watchful eyes of numerous Golden Core cultivators, he, a mere Qi Refining Cultivator, would surely have been casually slain by that Golden Core elder.

“Well done!” Elder Yin approached Li Shiming, patting him lightly and smiling in praise.

Elder Yin’s face shone with pride, as almost all Golden Core cultivators admired his junior.

No matter what potential Li Shiming had for the future, his performance in the battle alone marked him as the most outstanding among all Qi Refining Cultivators.

Especially his Sword Intent; even though he had only just touched the fringe of Sword Intent, Sword Intent is still Sword Intent, suggesting the potential to become a Sword Cultivator.

Li Shiming smiled bashfully; surrounded by a crowd of Golden Cores, he still wasn’t quite accustomed to such attention, despite experiencing it for the second time.

How could he be comfortable? If the Golden Core cultivators present hadn’t intentionally restrained their auras, just the casual release of a Golden Core’s aura would be enough to immobilize a Qi Refining Cultivator.

“All Qi Refining Cultivators participating in the battle will receive a Spirit Artifact. Li Shiming, due to your outstanding achievements, you will receive two Spirit Artifacts!” Just then, Master Du Hai strode over and announced with a smile.

This announcement was directed at the Qi Refining Cultivators; the Golden Core elders were already in the know.

These rewards were put forward jointly by the Seven Sects, and choosing Spirit Artifacts as the prize had its reasons.

All the participating Qi Refining Cultivators, except for Li Shiming, were genius cultivators, and their own sects had already prepared Foundation Establishment Pills for them; this was a given.

As for Super-grade Magical Artifacts, among the spoils of this battle, there were already quite a few of them.

Moreover, Super-grade Magical Artifacts were not enough to honor the achievements of the participating Qi Refining Cultivators. Despite only one Qi Refining Cultivator perishing in the battle and the complete annihilation of the Beishu Qi Refining Cultivators,

the reality was that if it wasn’t for Li Shiming’s sudden burst of power, it is likely none of the cultivators involved in the battle would have survived.

From the outset of the battle, it was evident that the Seven Sects cultivators were being suppressed by the Beishu Qi Refining Cultivators upon first engagement.

These talented cultivators would soon ascend to the Foundation Establishment Stage, so the Seven Sects had to ensure the rewards were fitting, and only Spirit Artifacts met the criteria.

No Qi Refining Cultivators objected to Li Shiming being awarded two Spirit Artifacts; instead, they felt that his reward was somewhat insufficient.

The rewards were given out on the spot: one Metal-property offensive Spirit Artifact and one defensive Spirit Artifact Shield. Especially the Metal-property offensive Spirit Artifact was evidently chosen with his specific circumstances in mind.
