Chapter 1355 - 724: Preparation

Li Shiming looked at the ’Spiritual Jade Spring Eye’ and ’Fire Jade Furnace’ separately stored in two jade boxes. Back then, his clone, Li Yuanba, ventured into the Qianren Sect partly because of this Cave Heaven Core.

Yet he hadn’t expected that the Qianren Sect’s Cave Heaven Core would be twofold, which indeed was a pleasant surprise.

It was only due to his extraordinarily good luck, immense courage, and an unimaginable control over formations that he managed to repeatedly acquire Cave Heaven Cores.

Through the Divine Tree in the Yimu Cave Heaven of the Fuliu Sect, as well as the Qianren Sect’s ’Spiritual Jade Spring Eye’ and ’Fire Jade Furnace’, he confirmed that obtaining world-class treasures like ’Xirang’ was extremely difficult, but Cave Heaven Cores could be comparable to such treasures.

Cave Heaven is a world opened by Mahayana cultivators unique to themselves, and each Cave Heaven can nurture its own heavenly treasures.

Of course, this does not mean it’s easy to obtain heavenly treasures from a Cave Heaven, as even large superpowers do not possess many, and ordinary grand sects typically only have one Cave Heaven.

Li Yuanba’s success in invading the Cave Heaven was mainly because of his own weakness, leaving the Qianren Sect unprepared for him.

The Qianren Sect probably never imagined that Li Yuanba, who was seen as prey, would suddenly turn into a hunter and successfully invade their Cave Heaven.

Li Shiming, carrying two jade boxes, emerged from Great Power Zhai Ge’s Cave Heaven and turned to enter the Half-Life Cave Heaven.

Compared to Zhai Ge’s well-formed Cave Heaven, this Half-Life Cave Heaven felt more familiar to him.

This was not only because the Half-Life Cave Heaven was under his total control, but also because he personally enhanced the earth and wood element rules here.

Although he, due to his realm, could not perceive the detailed parts of the earth and wood element rules, these rules still felt intimately connected to him.

Unfortunately, the rules within the Half-Life Cave Heaven were incomplete, restricting him from cultivating in seclusion here.

Thinking of this, he took out the ’Spiritual Jade Spring Eye’, and with a subtle mental shift, he dug a pit beside the Divine Tree.

In the Half-Life Cave Heaven, where he was nearly akin to a deity, creating this pit was just a thought for him.

The soil on the ground, fused with ’Xirang’, also complied with his intention.

Understanding his desire to create a water-containing space, ’Xirang’ deliberately compacted the soil around the pit.

Li Shiming placed the ’Spiritual Jade Spring Eye’ into the pit, its presence causing the Half-Life Cave Heaven to tremble slightly.

Soon enough, the Half-Life Cave Heaven settled, and the ’Spiritual Jade Spring Eye’, having lost its host, instinctively merged with the Half-Life Cave Heaven, becoming a part of it.

The spiritual energy within the Half-Life Cave Heaven flowed into the ’Spiritual Jade Spring Eye’, which shimmered with a blue light as a clear spring emerged from it.

As the clear spring appeared, the water level in the pit rose gradually.

Within the original earth and wood spiritual energy of Half-Life Cave Heaven, new water element spiritual energy emerged, nourishing ’Xirang’, from which Li Shiming felt a sense of joy.

The clear spring in the pit also fused with ’Xirang’, feeding into the Divine Tree, whose leaves swayed, expressing a sense of comfort.

Water, being the source of life, with the ’Spiritual Jade Spring Eye’ added, brought more vitality to the Half-Life Cave Heaven.

Li Shiming had an epiphany; it seemed completing the Five Elements of Half-Life Cave Heaven was his mission, and he had successfully accomplished four-fifths.

Though he hadn’t yet merged the ’Fire Jade Furnace’ into the Half-Life Cave Heaven, given that the ’Spiritual Jade Spring Eye’ from the Qianren Sect’s Cave Heaven succeeded, why would the ’Fire Jade Furnace’ fail?

He took out the ’Fire Jade Furnace’, glanced at the relatively small Half-Life Cave Heaven, noting how it couldn’t accommodate the ’Fire Jade Furnace’ on the ground.

Not to mention that the soil was ’Xirang’ itself, concerned whether the fire might harm it, even with just a hundred-meter radius of ground space, placing the ’Fire Jade Furnace’, thereby forming a volcano, could heavily impact the Divine Tree.

He looked up and, without hesitation—being a deity in this Half-Life Cave Heaven—positioned the ’Fire Jade Furnace’ a hundred meters above, near the top edge of the Cave Heaven, unable to be placed further.

With no place to secure the ’Fire Jade Furnace’, he tried emitting a consciousness, wishing for it to hover there.

The ’Fire Jade Furnace’ landed at the designated spot, floating in mid-air.

The appearance of the ’Fire Jade Furnace’ caused the Half-Life Cave Heaven to tremble slightly, and Li Shiming sensed it becoming part of the Cave Heaven.

Spiritual energy streamed into the ’Fire Jade Furnace’, flames surged around it, soon transforming into a fireball.

The fireball illuminated the land, the Divine Tree, and the spring; to Li Shiming, this Cave Heaven, though lacking the full Five Elements, now had the embryonic form of a world.

Under the fireball’s light, vapor rose from the spring, forming mist at fifty meters, the mist thickening into white clouds, which gradually darkened.

A small bolt of lightning flashed within the black clouds, releasing rain that fell onto the ground below.
