Cultivation is just so scientific!

Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters is located on a peninsula on the west coast of Dongqi Continent, occupying most of the peninsula.

A large number of cultivators gather here, and these cultivators have formed a commercial area around the Yuxiang Trading House, making this peninsula appear extremely prosperous.

When Li Shiming arrived at the peninsula where the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters was located, it was already nighttime. He looked at the brightly lit Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters, pondering how to find information about Jian Wuwei.

Cultivators do not care about day or night; the commercial area outside the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters is still a gathering place for them.

Most of these cultivators live here. With the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters present, the peninsula is under its protection, and few cultivators dare to cause trouble on the peninsula.

This also makes it a place of refuge for many Loose Cultivators and Cultivation Families. Although the dangers of the Cultivation World are omnipresent, the peninsula is considered a very safe area.

Li Shiming manipulated the Chameleon Cloak to enter into an invisibility state.

He had just used 'Divine Eyesight' to observe, and as there were many Loose Cultivators here, the formations on the peninsula were not considered very sophisticated.

The inherent abilities of the fourth-grade high-stage Chameleon Cloak made it so that the formations in the outermost area of the peninsula could not detect him.

He ignored the Loose Cultivator gathering areas and instead flew toward the direction of the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters.

The Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters occupies the largest area on the peninsula, and he soon approached the great formation of the Yuxiang Trading House.

"This formation is somewhat bizarre!" Li Shiming used 'Divine Eyesight' to observe the formation, and his natal treasure, the IBMz15, analyzed the Spiritual Power Pattern of the formation and its nodes, and he quickly noticed something amiss.

The great formation of the Yuxiang Trading House is somewhat different from a normal Sect Protection Array; this formation has inherited some parts of formations from the Demon Sect.

Li Shiming had obtained the knowledge of formations from the Sun Concealing Sect's Nascent Soul Cultivator among the spoils, so he was quite familiar with Demon Sect formations.

The reason the Yuxiang Trading House's use of Demon Sect formations is called bizarre by him is because the part of the Demon Sect formation used by the Yuxiang Trading House, besides the normal formation methods, also uses the soul of cultivators and a large amount of blood as raw materials.

As a medium-sized commercial power, although it can access the Demon Sect formation legacy, applying it to the great formation of one's own house carries different implications.

Of course, only a cultivator like Li Shiming, possessing 'Divine Eyesight' and familiarity with Demon Sect formations, would discover the anomaly of the great formation at the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters.

Although the formation at the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters has some methods of the Demon Sect formations, it did not take long for him to open a passage in the formation's barrier, and the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters remained unaware, without alarming any cultivators.

Li Shiming entered the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters while contemplating.

It seems that the Yuxiang Trading House might not be as clean as it appears on the surface; the methods of setting up the Demon Sect formation are extremely cruel and not accepted by Righteous Path forces.

There are many buildings in the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters, but upon his careful observation, he did not find anything particularly unusual.

His gaze fell on the central position of the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters, from which he sensed the aura of a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner and three Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioners.

The Yuxiang Trading Company's other Nascent Soul cultivators should all be busy outside.

Li Shiming was very patient; he did not immediately capture the cultivators for interrogation but instead found a place within the headquarters' formation to monitor the movements of the four Nascent Soul cultivators.

He did not want to cause too much commotion; at least until he clarifies whether Jian Wuwei's disappearance is related to the Yuxiang Trading Company, he would not launch a full-on attack on the Yuxiang Trading Company.

He had experience dealing with Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners. The difference between a mid-stage power like the Yuxiang Trading Company's Nascent Soul Middle Stage and that of the Sun Concealing Sect is significant, let alone the fact that he killed Zhao Lingyu, who was one of the top existences among the Sun Concealing Sect's Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners.

Therefore, he was very confident in his combat power, and what he needed now was to investigate; once he uncovered the issues, he'll act accordingly!

Li Shiming monitored the four Nascent Soul cultivators within the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters for ten consecutive days without discovering any anomalies, as the four Nascent Soul cultivators had not left their caves.

This was normal; not to mention ten days, it is common for Nascent Soul cultivators to stay in their caves for years.

He set a time for himself, planning to wait for five more days. If no information was obtained after five days, he would set up surveillance equipment to monitor in his stead.

Of course, the monitoring effect of the surveillance equipment is far inferior to his presence, but he did not have the time to stay here long-term.

He was not idle during these ten days; his computer room space had been continuously engaging in Alchemy.

Three more days passed, and on this day, his alert mind detected a Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioner leaving their cave.

"There really is a problem!" A light flashed in Li Shiming's eyes as he thought to himself.

After discovering the presence of Demon Sect formations at the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters, he changed his initial plan to conduct surveillance instead.

He wanted to find out who among the Yuxiang Trading House Headquarters was the Devil Cultivator. Previously, he sensed that the aura of all four Nascent Soul cultivators was normal, but today, the aura of this Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioner carried a trace of demonic energy.

Chang Chi yawned as he widened his mouth. Such behavior was extremely rare for a Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioner.

His eyes flickered with a faint red glow, and the deeply hidden demonic energies within his body were eager to move. If he did not find a way to suppress it, it might be fully exposed.
