Li Shiming did not immediately return to his cave dwelling but went outside the mountain gate. He released the Phantom Dragon and handed over a spiritual object to it.
The Phantom Dragon has its own storage space, as well as a Mustard Seed Ring given by Li Shiming. The spiritual object was stored in an isolating jade box to prevent the leakage of its aura.
Only then did Li Shiming return to his cave dwelling, while his mind was controlling the Phantom Dragon heading to the distance.
There exists a contracted connection between the Phantom Dragon and him. Before joining the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, he could only allow the Phantom Dragon to leave within a not-too-distant range; otherwise, he couldn't control the Phantom Dragon.
However, with the Beast Control Secret Technique from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, he could control his spiritual pet within the continent's range.
