Chapter 134: Chapter 113 Soul Device_2

    Soul Devices, even those purchased from the market by Qi Refining cultivators, were unheard of in their knowledge base.

    It seemed that Soul Devices were not commonly circulated among Qi Refining cultivators, perhaps they were secret techniques from a particular sect.

    At that moment, Li Shiming felt the Black Sparrow Wing getting somewhat hot to the touch, wondering if putting it away would make the people behind Ren Fei’er think he was deceiving the little girl.

    However, Ren Fei’er did not feel at a loss; she had seen her sister’s pocket watch and was keen to own one due to its intricate mechanical techniques.

    But getting one from her sister was now impossible. She had fallen for the LED light last night, which seemed just as magical as the pocket watch.

    She had it all planned out. This time she would bring the LED light back to show her sister that not only pocket watches could be of such extreme mortal refinement.

    Indeed, by the metric of rarity, a single LED light, lost to the world, was more valuable than a Soul Device.

    Soul Devices could be bought or manufactured by powerful cultivators and were not unique, but if Li Shiming chose not to give another LED light away, then it would remain singularly unique.

    Moreover, this world lacked the fundamental knowledge to replicate an LED light.

    Li Shiming experienced his first true sensation of flight after his cultivation, distinct from paper cranes and Sword Escape, as a pair of black wings on his back allowed him to soar freely like a bird.

    The speed of the Black Sparrow Wings was not as slow as Ren Fei’er had mentioned when not using his own Spiritual Energy.

    In the trial flight, just the Black Sparrow Wings’ own flying speed far exceeded that of the paper cranes by more than four times, only a little slower than Sword Escape.

    It was notable that the flight of the Black Sparrow Wings could be sustained. The Spiritual Sparrow Soul inside controlling the flight did not consume much Spiritual Energy, primarily because the material of the Black Sparrow Wings inherently possessed a power of flight.

    The Black Sparrow Wings could unfurl at will when needed or fold discreetly when not, blending unobtrusively into his back like a mere ornament.

    With the Black Sparrow Wings, their speed increased to the maximum flying speed of the paper cranes.

    On the road, due to it being daytime, the brightness of the LED light was not as apparent as at night, prompting Ren Fei’er to shift her attention to Li Shiming, eagerly talking with him.

    Li Shiming, feeling obligated since he had accepted her gift, indulged her whim and joined in the casual conversation.

    Finally, with no other choice, he began telling stories to Ren Fei’er while they flew.

    This indeed aligned with Ren Fei’er’s wishes, and she finally settled down to listen to the stories.

    In the afternoon, they finally reached the capital city of Nanshan Country, where Li Shiming applied the “Invisibility Technique” to both of them; though this minor technique had little effect on cultivators, it was extremely practical for navigating the secular world.

    “Follow me and don’t talk!” Li Shiming instructed uneasily.

    “Li Shiming of the Sky Sea Sect pays respect to Your Majesty!” Li Shiming materialized and slightly bowed as he spoke.

    His voice did not travel beyond the hall, as he utilized the Formation here, manipulating several Spiritual Power Pattern lines to isolate the great hall from the outside world.

    The middle-aged emperor was startled, his imperial brush leaving a blot of excess ink on the paper.

    Nevertheless, the middle-aged emperor remained very composed, he looked towards Li Shiming who had just appeared.

    “So it is a Sage from the sect who has arrived, may I know what brings the Sage to me?” The middle-aged emperor stood up with a smile, walked from behind the desk to Li Shiming, and respectfully performed a salutation.

    “Wait a moment, I will call our fellow stationed elder brother over!” Li Shiming waved his hand and said.

    His words made the middle-aged emperor feel relieved, understanding that Li Shiming had no malicious intent, else he could have easily dealt with him by now instead of calling for another stationed cultivator.

    Li Shiming’s method of calling the stationed cultivator was simple, he lightly tapped on a line of Spiritual Power in the Formation.

    The stationed cultivator, who was in the courtyard, sensed a message coming from the direction of the palace—an exceedingly strange message, transmitted through the Formation.

    “Li Shiming awaits the elder brother in the great hall!” The stationed cultivator grasped the content of the message, his eyes revealing a sign of shock.

    He was well aware of what this ability signified, it was at least that of an Array Master.

    The status of an Array Master in the sect was far from simple, he did not hesitate for even a moment, his figure flickered as he rushed out of the yard.

    “Greetings, junior brother!” The stationed cultivator was an old cultivator with white hair, clearly in the later stages of life, but he showed no condescension towards Li Shiming, he bowed deeply in the traditional cultivator’s greeting.

    The stationed cultivator’s gaze swept over Ren Fei’er, who remained invisible, and since she did not reveal herself, he did not expose her either.

    “Elder brother, I have called you here to discuss a matter concerning the Han Family of Nanshan Country!” Li Shiming didn’t beat around the bush and said in a serious tone.

    The stationed cultivator and the middle-aged emperor did not follow his meaning, not knowing what he intended to do.

    However, Li Shiming’s next action took them completely by surprise.

    Suddenly, Li Shiming took out one corpse after another, laying out ten bodies side by side in the hall.

    Both the stationed cultivator and the middle-aged emperor were no strangers to corpses, having seen many more than present here.

    But upon discovering the identities of these bodies, both were utterly shocked.

    “I undertook a mission to cure Spirit Plants in Changshi Valley and encountered their ambush, here they all are!” Li Shiming explained indifferently.

    The stationed cultivator took another look at Li Shiming’s realm, indeed, it was the Qi Refining Fourth Level.
