Cultivation is just so scientific! Chapter 1595 - 844: Myriad Beasts

Li Shiming stealthily made his way back to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, confiding only in his master, Grandmaster Hu, since he had departed under the pretext of seclusion.

"Lan’er, welcome to my residence in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect!" Li Shiming escorted Yin Shilan to his living quarters.

Yin Shilan glanced around the residence with curiosity. While the decorations weren’t as opulent as those in the Great Power Palace, the overall arrangement was of solid quality.

"I’ve prepared a temporary Identity Jade Disc for you; this place will serve as our home going forward!" Li Shiming announced, performing a few adjustments before passing the Identity Jade Disc to Yin Shilan.

"I truly enjoy this spot!" Yin Shilan expressed with delight, exploring various items contentedly.

"If you’re pleased, I’ll introduce you to my master here in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect. By the way, I nearly forgot—within the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, I use the name Li Shizhen!" Li Shiming grinned, noting Yin Shilan’s cheerful demeanor.

Even though he and Yin Shilan would primarily focus on cultivation inside the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven moving ahead, beyond training sessions, this would become their main spot for daily life.

Once Li Shiming had given Yin Shilan a tour of the residence, he guided her to the home of his master, Grandmaster Hu.

Since the residence lay within the Grotto Heaven as well, the distance wasn’t great.

Following a transmission spell, Grandmaster Hu emerged personally to welcome them.

"Master, Lan’er serves as my dao companion; we encountered each other back in the Qi Refinement Realm!" Li Shiming presented her with a warm smile to Grandmaster Hu.

"Yin Shilan pays respects to Master!" Despite her shyness, Yin Shilan offered a polite greeting to Grandmaster Hu right away.

"Shiming has been quite lucky; he kept this from me in advance, catching me off guard!" Grandmaster Hu remarked with mild disapproval, eyeing Li Shiming as he gently assisted Yin Shilan to stand with a hand motion.

After a brief pause, he presented a Token to Yin Shilan.

"Here’s the Token for Baihua Peak—I’m granting you ownership of that mountain!"

Clutching the Token, Yin Shilan turned to Li Shiming, uncertain of her next move.

"Lan’er, please take the Master’s generous gift. Baihua Peak stands as the most beautiful peak in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, boasting wonderful views!" Li Shiming urged Yin Shilan to receive the Token while providing an explanation.

"Please, come in so we can chat!" Grandmaster Hu ushered the pair into his residence.

He brought forth his finest treats for guests, including some rare treasures he’d stored away, to suitably welcome Yin Shilan.

As Li Shiming’s mentor, Grandmaster Hu had largely believed his disciple would stay unattached forever.

Solitary practice holds no rarity in the cultivation world; plenty of cultivators follow that path.

Yet, the majority of cultivators hold admiration for those securing a dao companion, given the immense challenge in discovering one.

Reflect on the difficulty of locating a dao companion one can utterly rely on in the cultivation world—one permitted to access your home freely, to divide cultivation resources, and more. Numerous cultivators simply cannot commit to such deep trust in a dao companion.

Few in the cultivation world manage what Li Shiming has achieved: encountering a genuine and cherished female cultivator soon after stepping into cultivation.

Overflowing with happiness, Grandmaster Hu observed Li Shiming and Yin Shilan as a blissful dao couple, reminiscent of a parent watching a child establish roots.

"Shiming, what are your thoughts on settling things for Yin Shilan?" Grandmaster Hu inquired of Li Shiming once their conversation had progressed.

"Master, I’ve discussed matters with Mr. Li from Luanyang Palace and secured for Lan’er the Inheritance Technique known as ’Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens’!" Li Shiming answered forthrightly, with no desire to conceal details.

"Do you aim to have Yin Shilan enter Luanyang Palace? That seems like a solid decision!" Grandmaster Hu showed no concern over Li Shiming’s choice against the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, recognizing the vast difference between it and the mighty Luanyang Palace.

"I’m not planning for Lan’er to become part of Luanyang Palace; she’ll merely learn their cultivation methods!" Li Shiming denied, clarifying his stance.

"Shiming, remember that not every cultivator possesses your exceptional talent. I’ve evaluated Shilan’s potential—it’s impressive, yet it falls short of your own. She requires proper mentorship!" Grandmaster Hu stated gravely.

Just as Li Shiming prepared to elaborate, Grandmaster Hu signaled him to hold off.

"I’m aware your cultivation has advanced tremendously; still, with Shilan pursuing the ’Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens,’ you must think about her progress in that specific technique.

Perhaps you could offer Shilan pointers based on your grasp of the ’Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens’ along with insights gained from Luanyang Palace, yet your comprehension pales against the vast wisdom gathered by Luanyang Palace’s myriad cultivators across ten thousand years. Since you’ve never cultivated the ’Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens’ yourself, even a minor error in guidance might cause problems in Shilan’s practice.

From where I stand, Shilan joining Luanyang Palace represents the optimal path for her!" Grandmaster Hu pressed on.

This angle hadn’t occurred to Li Shiming, especially as Yin Shilan was only beginning her shift to a fresh core cultivation technique, facing just basic hurdles thus far.

Grandmaster Hu’s idea merited careful thought; as Yin Shilan delved deeper into the ’Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens,’ Li Shiming’s deeper understandings would largely remain guesses, lacking personal experience with the technique.

"Lan’er, what do you think about me arranging a master for you at Luanyang Palace?" After pondering, Li Shiming chose to seek Yin Shilan’s view.

"Joining Luanyang Palace—doesn’t that imply we’d need to separate?" Yin Shilan gazed at Li Shiming, her eyes betraying concern, and posed the question.
