When Li Shiming advanced to the late-stage Golden Core, he could start concocting pills for the Nascent Soul Ancestors. Although most of the sect's Nascent Soul Ancestors were in seclusion, the fact that Elder Zuo occasionally paid attention to Li Shiming's Sword Holding Peak was evidence of how much they valued him.
After returning to the sect, Li Shiming was visited by Golden Core Elders on and off for the first few days. Once he had taken care of the needs of those late-stage Golden Core Elders in the sect, he announced that he would no longer accept orders for third-grade Spirit Pills for cultivators in the middle stage of the Golden Core.
The news of his decision caused a chorus of lamentations among the sect's Golden Core Elders, but they were helpless and had to find ways to approach him through the few cultivators who could ask for his help, like Elder Su and Elder Ma.
Even his senior brothers and sisters had many cultivators knocking on their doors.
