Chapter 612: Chapter 352 Divine Skills_2
Of course, this was observed through âDivine Eyes,â and he needed more practice to achieve such precision in control.
But with his life-bound magical artifact, the IBMz15, although he might not reach the precision of one nanometer, reaching twenty to thirty nanometers in a short period shouldnât be a problem.
He had great confidence, even believing that one day his control could match the observational precision of âDivine Eyes.â
Li Shiming also tested the other abilities of âDivine Eyes,â discovering their significant use in formations.
âDivine Eyesâ could observe the spiritual power patterns and see the nodes of the formations without using Divine Thought, which is an extremely important data for any Array Master.
Not to mention for Li Shiming, with this knowledge, formations would be easily breakable.
The other uses of âDivine Eyesâ are numerous, such as in combat, they could make his flying sword even more accurate, and even find gaps between an enemyâs spiritual power, allowing the flying sword to pierce through their defenses.
Of course, this function is not universal, as for cultivators who have mastered âDivine Eyes,â seeing the gaps in an opponentâs spiritual power doesnât mean they can seize the opportunity, as it is virtually impossible.
Cultivators in battle frequently shift their spiritual power, with the gaps appearing and disappearing in an instant.
Cultivators canât catch that moment to exploit the gaps in spiritual power observed with âDivine Eyes,â otherwise âDivine Eyesâ wouldnât be considered the weakest Divine Skill.
But just because other cultivators canât seize it, doesnât mean Li Shiming canât. With his life-bound artifact IBMz15 handling some of the data, Li Shiming didnât need to worry as the IBMz15 could even analyze the appearance of spiritual power gaps in advance through the observation of âDivine Eyes.â
Li Shiming just needed to strike at the spiritual power gaps at the right time with his flying sword.
This combat skill was still being perfected, and he needed real combat to practice it.
He was like a child who had received a new toy, and aside from cultivating and alchemy, he spent most of his time on combining âDivine Eyesâ with scientific research.
After a bit over a month, the six major sects of the Beishu Continent still hadnât found any trace of the Nascent Soul Ancestor from Skywalk Trading Company, and the Nascent Soul Ancestor of Thousand Illusion Sect, who was skilled in divination, used expensive materials for a divination and concluded that the Nascent Soul Ancestor was not on the Beishu Continent.
With this result, the six major sects finally put their minds at ease, but they were not too happy. This was only a temporary safety, as a cross-continent trading company like Skywalk Trading Company surely had more than one Nascent Soul Ancestor.
The six major sects needed to prepare for possible retaliation from Skywalk Trading Company, but that was no longer a concern for the Golden Core Elders of the six major sects, as it was something for the Nascent Soul Ancestors to worry about.
The previously tense atmosphere of the Beishu Continent relaxed a bit, and it was at this time that Li Shiming once again left the sect.
For Li Shimingâs departure from the sect, the Golden Core Elders of Shushan Sect no longer had the previous concerns since no problems had occurred during his recent outings, breaking the curse-like pattern of encountering trouble every time he left.
When Li Shiming left Sword Holding Peak, he activated the âSky Concealing Secret Technique.â
His aura was somewhat unique, and he didnât want to be detected by fellow sect cultivators.
These days, he had taken ten drops of Third Grade âHeavenly Immortal Milk,â which had brought his âVajra Body Protection Divine Skillâ to the peak of perfection close to the Golden Core chapter.
If it werenât for the âSky Concealing Secret Techniqueâ to hide his presence, he feared his vitality and blood could be sensed from several miles away.
Actually, this was only because his âVajra Body Protection Divine Skillâ hadnât reached perfection yet, and it was impossible to reach the highest realm of the Golden Core chapter of âVajra Body Protection Divine Skillâ in a short period.
Without Third Grade âHeavenly Immortal Milk,â other Third Grade Body Refinement Spiritual Objects were of little help to him.
Unless he could obtain more Fourth Grade Body Refinement resources, he could only cultivate on his own to slowly advance the realm of the âVajra Body Protection Divine Skill.â
Even though he hadnât reached the perfect stage of the âVajra Body Protection Divine Skillâ in the Golden Core chapter, his combat power was vastly different from before, his close combat strength had almost increased several times over.
In terms of defense, strength, and speed, he could be compared to a Late-stage Golden Core Cultivator who was close to the peak.
He could be considered equivalent to a Late-stage Body Refining Cultivator, although his realm was only at the early stage of Golden Core. The effect of the fourth-grade âHeavenly Immortal Milk,â a resource of the Nascent Soul Stage, could achieve a cross-realm enhancement of strength.
It was precisely this significant increase in defensive power that gave him the idea to leave the sect and complete his previous plans.
Without using defensive magical treasures, he could withstand several strikes from a Late-stage Golden Core Cultivatorâs magical treasures with just his body. As for how many attacks he could withstand, that depended on the Late-stage Golden Core Cultivatorâs own strength.
Taking the fourth-grade âHeavenly Immortal Milkâ had another unexpected effect.
As he cultivated the âVajra Body Protection Divine Skillâ in the Golden Core chapter to near perfection, his constitution greatly improved, and the previously overlooked âSword Demon Secret Manualâ produced a special effect.
With the improvement in his constitution, the Third Grade Sword Base inside him continued to strengthen as he cultivated the âSword Demon Secret Manual.â
Before the Golden Core Stage, the Third Grade Sword Base of the âSword Demon Secret Manualâ relied on the Third Grade Metalâs material quality to exert far more powerful than those of the same level.
By the Golden Core Stage, when the Third Grade Sword Base became a magical treasure, the material effects of the Third Grade Sword Base were fully utilized, and then it was the âSword Demon Secret Manualâ itself that allowed the Third Grade Sword Base to keep strengthening.
As long as Li Shimingâs constitution continued to improve, the Third Grade Sword Base would also keep growing. It was as if the Third Grade Sword Base was a vassal to his body; as the body strengthened, so would the Third Grade Sword Base.
The only issue was that the âSword Demon Secret Manualâ lacked content for the Nascent Soul Stage. He did not know whether the Third Grade Sword Base could also elevate itself to the fourth grade once his body reached the Nascent Soul Body.
Regardless, the current Third Grade Sword Base was already extremely strong, having almost reached the limit of strength for a Third Grade Longsword class magical treasure.
Unfortunately, even with his current Body Refining prowess and bearing the Third Grade Sword Foundation Magical Treasure, Li Shiming was unable to break through the defenses of a Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core controlled by a Heavenly Ghost.
Despite seeming only a small distance away from reaching the level of Great Elder-level Body Refining, that gap was as vast as the difference between heaven and earth. One step further would mean invincibility within the Golden Core Stage.
This time, when leaving the sect, Li Shiming did not conceal his form. He summoned a Third-Grade Meteor Ink Boat and steered it in a certain direction.
Li Shiming, sitting in the Flying Boat, activated âTelepathy.â The Flying Boat flew at a very low altitude, allowing him to pick up the thoughts of the people on the ground.
From time to time, he also used âDivine Eyeâ to observe what was ahead. âDivine Eyeâ enabled him to see everything within a thousand miles like it was right before his eyes.
Divine Skills require practice. The Divine Skills he had acquired were mostly methods of cultivation and techniques for use; Qianye Temple had not imparted these to him.
He had to explore these on his own, and perhaps his experience would be more comprehensive than any usage experience of Divine Skills by Qianye Temple.
At the very least, in the use of âDivine Eye,â he was definitely superior to Qianye Temple. With âDivine Eye,â he had created the first 27-nanometer CPU in the server room space.
It is estimated that even with extensive study of âDivine Eye,â Qianye Temple would not have achieved this.
Even now, inside the Meteor Ink Boat, there were a hundred brains in the server room space working together to produce more 27-nanometer CPUs.
Only with his life-bound magical treasure, the IBM z15, along with the server room space and âDivine Eye,â was he able to do so.
If he could return to his original world, his level of technology alone would surpass that of many countries from his former life.
This made him realize even more that the true path was to combine the methods of cultivation with the technology of his previous life.
