Li Yuanba became famous once again, his reputation rising to fever pitch.
Previously, he had made his name in a single battle against Minghai Great Honored One, injuring him and forcing him to retreat.
Now, by his own strength, he had defeated eight top Great Cultivators, slain Great Cultivator Lin's physical body, and taken away Great Cultivator Lin's Nascent Soul. This battle raised his combat ranking among the Great Cultivators of the Cultivation World once more.
Defeating a Peak Great Cultivator was easy, but killing one was difficult.
Everyone knew Peak Great Cultivators were powerful combat forces cultivated by the various superpowers to intimidate other forces.
A Peak Great Cultivator normally held life-saving means bestowed by a Great Power. To kill a Peak Great Cultivator, one needed a chance to kill him instantly.
Of course, this reputation did not affect Li Yuanba. He still cultivated as before, contacted Li Shiming to refine pills for Sword Intent Soaring Pavilion, and went out every few months to carry out a mission.
He delivered the Mystic Ice Sacred Spirit together with Great Cultivator Lin's corpse to Li Shiming; they were of little use if left with him.
In the blink of an eye, fifty years passed. The competition among Great Cultivators in the Cultivation World for Great Cultivator Resources had not stopped, and almost every Great Cultivator's cultivation had improved somewhat.
This was thanks to Li Shiming's alchemy. Li Shiming opened up his Alchemy Commissions, and as long as there was an alchemy reward that met his requirements, he would accept the Alchemy Commission.
After several decades, the stores of Great Cultivator Resources held by the various forces across the entire Cultivation World had long since been exhausted, all refined into Great Cultivator high-grade Spiritual Pills.
Now Li Shiming could be considered idle.
