Chapter 683 - 388 Settling Scores
Since Yu Gu left, no other cultivators have come to disturb Li Shiming’s life.
Although he only cultivated at night, his cultivation improved not at all slowly.
The frequency with which he consumed Third-grade Spirit Pills was according to the maximum interval for consuming Third Grade Advanced Spirit Pills.
Reaching the Golden Core Middle Stage, the most significant change was the formation of a South Ming Leaving Fire Pattern within his body.
This was something he did not have during the Golden Core Early Stage, and precisely because of this, even though he had inherited the "Nanming Leaving Fire" Divine Skills, he couldn’t cultivate South Ming Leaving Fire himself and had to rely on the Heavenly Ghost to control the Nascent Soul Body to cultivate it on his behalf.
After advancing to the Golden Core Middle Stage, it seemed that the Nanming Leaving Fire flame within him automatically formed a small South Ming Leaving Fire Pattern during the process of advancement. Initially, he didn’t discover it because the fire pattern was too small.
With his cultivation and the influence of the South Ming Leaving Fire residing within him, the South Ming Leaving Fire Pattern slowly increased in size, which eventually led him to notice this change.
This discovery enabled him to cultivate the "Nanming Leaving Fire" Divine Skills by himself and even gave him a faint possibility of using it during the Golden Core Stage.
You should know that South Ming Leaving Fire was an attack Divine Skill that only Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators could control, and the terrifying aspect of attack Divine Skills lies in their intrinsic level surpassing that of most energies.
Just like Great Elder-level Body Refining, it is extremely difficult for Golden Core cultivators to break through its defenses, but in the face of South Ming Leaving Fire, a mere spark can break through the defenses of a Great Elder-level Refining.
