Li Shiming left the mountain gate of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect without informing any cultivator.
He took along Venerable Huijing, whose strength had rapidly improved over the years, mainly due to the consumption of a large number of fourth-grade Spirit Pills to aid in cultivation.
Venerable Huijing probably hadn't consumed as many fourth-grade Spirit Pills in his previous centuries-long cultivation journey as he had in the past four years.
He was almost cultivating to the limit of his capabilities by consuming fourth-grade Spirit Pills, which allowed his strength to fully recover to his pre-injury condition and even become somewhat stronger.
However, Li Shiming did not have much confidence in Venerable Huijing's combat power; he was very aware that Venerable Huijing's battle strength was still no match for the Nascent Soul cultivator of the Dongqi Continent.
