Cultivation is just so scientific! Chapter 1575 - 834: Reunion

Previously on Cultivation is just so scientific!...
Li Shiming discovers that the resources he left for Yin Shilan sparked conflicts among Nascent Soul cultivators, leading to her confinement in a spiritually barren cave for a century. Enraged, he demands that the perpetrators return ten times the stolen items within twenty days, a feat deemed nearly impossible by Patriarch Ge and Ancestor Zhan. To improve her living conditions, Li Shiming elevates and fortifies her mountain abode using powerful array flags and the Luminous Golden Flower, turning it into a stunning, defensive paradise while granting control to Yin Shilan and Ren Feier, stirring her emotional concerns over his past dangers.

Li Shiming gazed at Yin Shilan as she danced amid the golden sea of flowers, completely ignoring Ren Fei’er standing right next to her. The deep longing from over a century apart now filled his eyes with intense emotions.

"Hmph!" Ren Fei’er sensed Li Shiming’s stare and tugged Yin Shilan in the direction of the cave residence.

Li Shiming grinned and followed along, soaring toward the entrance of the cave residence.

"Lan’er, hold off on entering; I need to set up the cave residence first!" He reached the pair and told Yin Shilan.

Yin Shilan halted Ren Fei’er from going inside the cave residence, her eyes sparkling with expectation as she looked at Li Shiming, aware that he intended to surprise her.

Entering the cave residence, Li Shiming released various spiritual items one after another from his soul crystal ring.

He went to the innermost section of the cave residence, gripping a vein-locking plate, and chose not to unleash the Great Cultivator Spirit Vein—not out of reluctance, but due to the feeble Spiritual Energy on the Beishu Continent; freeing it would lead to rapid depletion.

The vein-locking plate contained a mid-stage Nascent Soul Spirit Vein, which was plenty for Yin Shilan’s needs.

He drew out the spirit vein from the vein-locking plate and embedded it into the mountain.

This spirit vein supplied abundant Spiritual Energy to the peak and also restored the usage of the ’Luminous Golden Flower’.

"Come on in now!" Li Shiming called out to those waiting outside the cave residence.

Ren Fei’er excitedly dragged her sister Yin Shilan inside the cave residence. The moment they stepped in, she barely glanced around before detecting the shift in Spiritual Energy.

"What dense Spiritual Energy! Cultivating daily in this place might just push me to the Nascent Soul Stage without much effort!" Ren Fei’er dramatically inhaled a big breath of the Spiritual Energy and exclaimed.

Throughout the years, resources had never been scarce for her up to the Golden Core Middle Stage. With Patriarch Ge, Yin Shilan’s master, providing support from the sect, obtaining those resources was simple even without official aid.

Patriarch Ge likely carried some guilt toward Yin Shilan and thus supported Ren Fei’er, enabling her steady progress to the Golden Core Middle Stage.

After her impulsive youth, Ren Fei’er stuck close to Yin Shilan following her entry into the Thousand Illusion Sect; she remained at Yin Shilan’s side even during times of oppression.

Without Ren Fei’er’s companionship, Yin Shilan’s hundred years would have been far more challenging.

"Shiming, this setup is far too extravagant!" Yin Shilan’s eyes landed on the hall’s furnishings. The original setup had been quite basic, but now numerous decorative pieces had been added.

Li Shiming left all the existing items in the cave residence untouched; each table and chair had shared a century with Yin Shilan.

He simply introduced some ornaments and supplied the missing daily spiritual objects for the cave residence.

Yet, the caliber of these spiritual objects stood out, all being Fourth Grade Top Quality.

In truth, any Fourth Grade Top Quality spiritual object present would astonish the Beishu Continent. In this resource-poor region where Nascent Soul cultivators couldn’t always secure a Fourth-Grade Magical Treasure, such items resembled legendary treasures.

"It’s hardly extravagant; just regard them as regular items—I possess multiple sets of these spiritual objects!" Li Shiming wasn’t trying to brag; he only wished for Yin Shilan to feel comfortable accepting them.

To him, Yin Shilan merited nothing less than Fourth Grade Top Quality spiritual objects.

The Fourth Grade Top Quality spiritual objects he owned were plentiful; nearly every key Great Cultivator from a major power kept a set for setting up temporary cave residences to host important visitors.

Not to mention, his conquests of various large sects had yielded an excess of treasures.

"Is this a Fourth Grade cup?" Ren Fei’er, captivated, lifted a jade cup from the table and inquired.

Li Shiming then understood that for Golden Core Middle Stage cultivators like Yin Shilan and Ren Fei’er, the gap between Fourth Grade Top Quality and Late Stage meant little—both were simply Fourth Grade spiritual objects.

He smiled and offered no elaboration; in his eyes, these daily spiritual objects were mere commonplace items.

"Lan’er, have you obtained the Nascent Soul Stage inheritance for the Thousand Illusion Technique?" Li Shiming recalled something and questioned.

"Master handed down the Thousand Illusion Technique inheritance to me!" Yin Shilan hastened to clarify, fearing Li Shiming might confront Master Patriarch Ge once more.

"Lan’er, you’ve got two options: either break through to Nascent Soul with the Thousand Illusion Technique and later adopt a superior cultivation technique, or select a fresh cultivation technique right at the Golden Core Stage. Whichever path you pick, I’ll assist you!" Li Shiming smiled, leaving the decision to Yin Shilan.

Yin Shilan hesitated for a moment, unsure of her choice; cultivation wasn’t her passion—she favored formations—yet while formations wouldn’t boost her cultivation, extending her lifespan demanded higher realms.

"Here’s a suggestion: you and Ren Fei’er can browse through cultivation techniques independently first. If one appeals to you, switch to it; I intend to bring you to the Dongqi Continent soon, where I’ve become part of a sect—you can reside there with me!" Noticing her uncertainty, Li Shiming proposed with a grin.

He wasn’t particular about Yin Shilan’s current cultivation technique choice; backed by his resources, her ascent to Nascent Soul was assured.

Yin Shilan disliked fighting, so a more serene method like the Thousand Illusion Technique could suit her well.

"Brother-in-law, do you possess a cultivation technique superior to the Thousand Illusion Technique? I’m not fond of it." Ren Fei’er’s face lit up upon hearing Li Shiming’s suggestion, and she asked.

She was clever and had observed early on how Li Shiming single-handedly overpowered the entire Thousand Illusion Sect; otherwise, why would the sect permit an outsider like him to access the mountain gate and freely suspend the peak in mid-air?
