Chapter 401: Chapter 247 Venerable

Li Shiming carefully stored the “Youthful Elixir” in a jade bottle, all twenty pills were high-grade Spirit Pills.

He took out two high-grade “Youthful Elixirs”, gave one to his clone Li Yuanba, and kept one for himself.

“It seems that neither of us will experience a change in our appearances!” he said with a smile to his clone Li Yuanba, then swallowed the high-grade “Youthful Elixir”.

After the high-grade “Youthful Elixir” entered his stomach, it turned into threads of heat that surged towards his skin and then disappeared, seemingly without any effect.

He was aware that this was because he was already in the prime of his youth, so the effect of the “Youthful Elixir” was not prominent.

But through Divine Thought, he sensed an inexplicable energy entering his skin, which must be the youth-preserving effect of the “Youthful Elixir”.

“The visage you’ve created for me seems like it will be preserved forever!” said the clone Li Yuanba with a smile as he removed his mask and also swallowed the high-grade “Youthful Elixir”.

Despite numerous battles at the Senluo Sect, Li Yuanba’s unparalleled beauty remained unaffected.

“Like jade, a young gentleman unparalleled in the world!” the original Li Shiming, even though he often sensed Li Yuanba’s condition remotely, couldn’t help but exclaim upon seeing Li Yuanba’s face.

This was his most proud work of cosmetic creation, the most beautiful face developed by IBMz15, coupled with micro-level cosmetic techniques and the robust recovery abilities of a cultivator, resulted in Li Yuanba’s unblemished and aesthetically perfect appearance.

Unlike Li Shiming, after taking the “Youthful Elixir”, Li Yuanba’s skin flashed with a crystal-clear sheen, making the exposed skin appear as delicate as fine porcelain.

Li Shiming had cultivated “Purple Qi Eastward”, turning his Taoist Body into a Pure Dao Body, so after taking the “Youthful Elixir”, he only retained its long-lasting youth-preserving effect without altering his current body.

That was because the Pure Dao Body had already brought his body to perfection, beyond what a “Youthful Elixir” could change.

Yet for Li Yuanba, who also cultivated “Purple Qi Eastward”, the outcome was entirely different.

His human state embodied Supreme Yang, and his Corpse Refining state embodied Supreme Yin, it’s not known which Dao Body he had, but its development direction was completely different from that of the Pure Dao Body, which is why “Youthful Elixir” could transform his skin.

“Eh!” Li Shiming frowned as he looked into the distance.

That direction was precisely where he had stored Li Yuanba’s pass into the machine room space, where he left a surveillance probe that transmitted data through a remote communication network covering the areas controlled by the Righteous Path forces, allowing him to see the images captured by the probe.

He saw three monks appear in that place, two of whom had the Arhat insignia of the Qianye Temple on them, while the third monk had no insignia, but the two were centered around him, indicating a higher status.

It was when Li Shiming was observing the three monks through the surveillance probe that the unmarked monk suddenly looked towards the probe, and soon after, the image went dark.

Li Shiming wasn’t surprised; even he could sense covert surveillance, so drawing the attention of the three monks by monitoring them wasn’t something hard to accept.

However, this at least indicated that the monk’s realm was much higher than his, and since the other two Arhats did not detect the surveillance probe, it gave Li Shiming a bad feeling.

“Let’s hope it’s not a Venerable!” he murmured to himself.

He looked at Li Yuanba, wondering if Li Yuanba’s exposure of “Step by Step Lotus” had made the Qianye Temple send out a Venerable?

This seemed far-fetched. A Venerable is a Nascent Soul Cultivator, and even in the Beishu Continent, a Nascent Soul Cultivator ranks among the top echelons. They wouldn’t dispatch a Venerable just to deal with a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, let alone a Golden Core Cultivator.

“Fellow, you’ve got trouble. Better get back into the bowl!” Li Shiming joked as he gestured for his clone Li Yuanba to come over. Li Yuanba, with a sense of resignation, reined in his own aura while Li Shiming gathered him back into the machine room space.

All traces of Li Yuanba’s aura disappeared, which was the best solution; Li Shiming would then directly transport Li Yuanba to the Jieshan Mountain Pass.

“Venerable Huike, it was right here that the Senluo Sect’s Li Yuanba’s pass disappeared!” Zhi Ming Arhat reported respectfully to Venerable Huike.

Venerable Huike exuded no trace of spiritual power fluctuations, standing in the void as if an ordinary person stood on solid ground, not by spell but as if the sky itself was a tangible substance for him to tread upon.

“There’s a presence of Divine Foot Skill here, odd, why are there two distinct auras of Divine Foot Skill?” Venerable Huike, whose insights dove deeper than those of the two Arhats, spoke solemnly.

If Li Shiming’s surveillance probe had not been destroyed, he likely would have been equally astounded.

However, Venerable Huike did not assume there were two individuals who possessed Divine Foot Skill but rather considered the possibility that Li Yuanba had some secret technique for altering his aura.

Because these two distinct auras of Divine Foot Skill had the same origin, his judgment was not incorrect.

“Venerable Huike, is it possible to track down Li Yuanba’s whereabouts?” Zhi Ming Arhat inquired.

“Divine Foot Skill is inherently untraceable. If he hadn’t lingered here for a while, he would not have left any aura behind!” Venerable Huike replied indifferently, shaking his head.

Venerable Huike played with the surveillance probe in his hand, puzzlement flashing in his eyes.

With his experience, he was acquainted with nearly all the techniques on the Beishu Continent, and even those unfamiliar to him, he could at least analyze their principles upon seeing them.
