Li Shiming had no desire to encounter the monks from Qianye Temple, let alone be tracked down by Patriarch Weng Zhao after reaping a tremendous benefit.
So he mobilized the sparse remnants of his Spiritual Power, putting his all into the 'Step by Step Lotus' as he aimed to return to the Shushan Sect.
As long as he made it back to the Shushan Sect, even if Patriarch Weng Zhao found out who he was, there would be nothing he could do about it.
Patriarch Weng Zhao's Nascent Soul chose a direction and transformed into a rainbow light that shot off into the distance.
Although all that was left was the Nascent Soul, there was still a chance for him. It was common for a Nascent Soul Ancestor to seek out a body for Body Seizing if they stayed in the Nascent Soul Stage for a while.
The body prepared for Body Seizing needed to be highly compatible with the Ancestor's original body, and in terms of innate talent, it had to be at least close to that of the Nascent Soul Ancestor's true form.
