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.
He had some speculations about Ren Fei’er’s identity, fearing that she might belong to a demonic sect, as she was referred to by Old Monk Du Yuan as the Little Witch.
If it were not for his sense of familiarity with Ren Fei’er and her being injured, he would never have considered letting her stay so close to him.
“Mm!” Ren Fei’er nodded obediently. She was well aware of when she could frolic and when she needed to be careful.
As they flew close to the Imperial Palace, a gleam of sharpness appeared in Li Shiming’s eyes, calculating paths with the IBM z15, revealing numerous Spiritual Power Pattern lines before his eyes.
“Follow me inside!” Without hesitation, he had already analyzed the formation.
Ren Fei’er certainly knew that such formations were a commonplace in the secular imperial palaces, a standard practice agreed upon by the sects to ensure that secular rulers were not threatened by Loose Cultivators.
While not particularly powerful, these formations were sufficient to ward off everyday Loose Cultivators.
Yet, such a formation did not delay Li Shiming; he easily deciphered it.
Without alarming anyone, and without triggering any alarms from the formation, Li Shiming and Ren Fei’er entered the airspace above the Imperial Palace.
Li Shiming flew towards the most heavily guarded part of the palace, which should be the location of the Emperor of Nanshan Country.
He then looked towards another area, where the compounds of the stationed cultivators from the sects were located.
In the secular world, that area gathered a significant amount of Spiritual Energy, standing out like a beacon in the darkness.
The Han Family had not completely taken control of Nanshan Country, besides Han Tianlei’s insufficient status, the presence of the stationed cultivators also posed an obstacle.
Although Han Tianlei was a Law Enforcement Monk, it was not easy for him to pose a threat to a cultivator intent on retiring.
Most of the stationed cultivators were preparing to rely on the Imperial Family for retirement, and the Imperial Family itself had some underpinnings within various sects, Their combined strength was enough to deter the Han Family from rash actions.
Li Shiming landed at the entrance of the palace, he walked slowly into the great hall, the guards at the door were completely unaware of the two people in the state of invisibility.
Seeing a middle-aged man in a golden dragon robe, although he was not the Emperor of Great Xia, he was an emperor of a territory similar to Great Xia’s.
And at that moment, he could stand proudly before him.
Isn’t the purpose of cultivating immortality to cultivate the freedom to wander the world as one pleases?
It seemed as if a knot in his heart had been untied, the natural dread he had of kings, in his original body, dissipated in an instant, his temperament was subtly enhanced.
His fusion with the original soul included emotions, and this fear of monarchs had merged into his current soul as well.
Li Shiming felt refreshed, even the rotation of the Spiritual Energy Vortex seemed faster.
“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.
