Chu Li was overjoyed. "What secret technique?"
"The most powerful one is the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique. It can break through an Enlightened Master's protective energy barrier and injure them severely. However, you can't kill an Enlightened Master, so you should give up." Elder Bai said.
Chu Li replied, "It's good enough to injure an Enlightened Master."
"If you want to obtain the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique, you'll need to contribute a lot." Elder Bai shook his head. "You'll need to accomplish at least ten major things. Young Du, you'll need to be patient. It'll take at least five to ten years!"
"… Yes." Chu Li nodded vigorously. He looked like he was encouraged but forced to do so.
"Before you enter the sect, you'll need to verify your true identity and go through a conscience test to see if you're cultivating the Heavenly Demonic Power." Elder Bai said, "This is to prevent spies from sneaking in. This is the foundation of the Heavenly Demonic Sect."
"Yes."
Elder Bai turned his head. "Young Qu, go and call the other three elders over!"
"Yes." Qu Jing replied and left.
Chu Li looked up at the Heavenly Demon Statue.
Elder Bai smiled. "This Heavenly Demon Statue is the treasure of the Heavenly Demonic Sect. Later, you'll need to undergo a conscience test in front of the Heavenly Demon Statue and pass this test to enter the sect!"
Chu Li frowned. "Conscience test?"
"This is the real test," Elder Bai said slowly. "If you can't pass the conscience test, we won't accept you into the sect."
"What do you mean by failure?" Chu Li asked.
"There are hidden people, hostile people, and people with ulterior motives." Elder Bai shook his head. "Although it's rare, it's not non-existent."
Since the Heavenly Demonic Sect was secretive and outsiders did not know about it, those who could enter the sect were personally introduced by the disciples. None of the disciples were stupid, so it was not easy to deceive them.
Even if there were some who managed to deceive him, they wouldn't be able to pass the test of Wen Xin and would be discovered and killed.
That was why the Heavenly Demonic Sect's inheritance had lasted for so many years.
After a while, three elders walked in slowly. Their eyes scanned Chu Li, trying to see through him.
"Senior Brothers, this is Du Feng. If he wants to join our Heavenly Demonic Sect, he'll have to go through a test of conscience," Elder Bai said in a low voice. "Let's take a look."
"Okay." The three of them agreed and flew up, pressing on the Heavenly Demon Statue's limbs.
Two of them pressed their hands and the other two pressed their feet and began to circulate their energy.
A strange power suddenly appeared and fell on the Heavenly Demon Statue.
The Heavenly Demon Statue seemed to have come to life. Its dull eyes lit up and slowly landed on Chu Li. It was as if the Heavenly Demon was staring at him.
Suddenly, Chu Li felt an invisible force enter his body, and the Heavenly Demonic Power circulated on its own.
Chu Li was astounded. He did not expect the Heavenly Demon Statue to be so miraculous. The Heavenly Demon Statue was circulating its heart technique on its own, and then it brought Chu Li along to cultivate. It was indeed a treasure of inheritance.
While Chu Li was immersed in the relaxed state of cultivation, he suddenly felt that the Heavenly Demonic Power was reversing. He could not control himself.
His face seemed to change.
It looked like it was going to reveal his original appearance. He was shocked and quickly circulated the Heavenly Demon Scripture to resist this strange force. The Heavenly Demon Statue was indeed powerful. It wanted to control his inner energy.
The Heavenly Demon Statue seemed to sense his resistance and began to pour energy into him. It wanted to reverse the Heavenly Demonic Power and restore Chu Li's original appearance. Chu Li used up all his energy to resist it.
The Heavenly Demonic Power froze in place.
A moment later, Chu Li had a flash of inspiration. He suddenly focused his mind on the Maha-Vairocana's Immobility Scripture in the void of his mind.
Suddenly, the Maha-Vairocana's Immobility Scripture echoed in his mind. An invisible force spread and dispersed the power from the Heavenly Demon Statue.
The four elders did not know what was happening inside Chu Li's body. Seeing that Chu Li's face had not changed, they thought it was his original appearance. They could not help but sigh at Chu Li's naivety. He did not know to change his appearance.
As a disciple of the Heavenly Demonic Sect, changing one's appearance was a basic skill. It had become an instinct. They could not let outsiders know their original appearance.
"Du Feng, what's your real name?" Elder Bai asked slowly.
His voice was calm and calm. It was warm and gentle as if he was sincere. It made people unconsciously listen to him and open their hearts.
"Du Feng," Chu Li answered calmly.
He saw how he should answer in Elder Bai's mind.
Elder Bai asked, "Then why did you come to the Heavenly Demonic Sect?"
"To improve the Heavenly Demonic Power and cultivate the antique study of the Heavenly Demonic Sect. I want to take revenge," Chu Li answered calmly.
Elder Bai asked, "Who's your enemy?"
"The Ji Dynasty's Emperor!" Chu Li answered calmly.
Elder Bai's expression changed slightly. He turned to look at the other three.
The other three frowned as well.
Elder Bai asked, "How are you going to take revenge?"
Chu Li's expression darkened. He said coldly, "Blood for blood! I'll first kill his son, then his daughter, then his concubines! Even if I can't kill him, I'll injure him severely! "
Elder Bai asked, "It's easy for an Enlightened Master to deal with you. You'll die. Aren't you afraid?"
"If I can't take revenge, I'd rather die than live," Chu Li said calmly.
"Hmm … You don't have any other thoughts about joining the Heavenly Demonic Sect, right?"
"I want to cultivate the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique," Chu Li said. "I must master it."
Elder Bai asked, "How did you inherit the Heavenly Demonic Power?"
Thus, Chu Li repeated what he had said earlier in a calm and composed manner.
Elder Bai finally asked for his identity before stopping. The four of them descended from the Heavenly Demonic Statue. They looked exhausted and weak.
Chu Li was lost in thought. He did not move.
"Sigh … Senior Brother Bai, we can't accept this disciple." A short and skinny elder shook his head. "It's troublesome. He's going to assassinate an Enlightened Master. He'll definitely die. There's no need to provoke this trouble!"
"Hmm, it's best not to provoke an Enlightened Master. Our losses will be greater." Someone else agreed.
They knew that Chu Li's attempt to assassinate an Enlightened Master was equivalent to suicide. It was impossible for him to survive. Moreover, no Enlightened Master had ever been assassinated.
"If he really does that and kills the prince first, he'll definitely provoke an Enlightened Master." Elder Bai sighed. "He might even deal with us!"
If Chu Li went into hiding, the Ji Dynasty's Emperor would definitely vent his anger on the Heavenly Demonic Sect.
Although the Heavenly Demonic Sect was strong, they were no match for an Enlightened Master. Even if they could win, they would definitely suffer heavy losses. Their vitality would be greatly damaged. They did not know if their inheritance would be lost. That was why they decided not to recruit Chu Li.
Chu Li slowly regained his senses and frowned. "I had a dream."
"You weren't dreaming." Elder Bai and the others looked at each other and sighed helplessly. "Du Feng, the Heavenly Demonic Sect can't accept you."
"Why?" Chu Li frowned. "I'm sincere in joining the Heavenly Demonic Sect."
"The Heavenly Demonic Sect isn't suitable for you. You didn't ask yourself." Elder Bai shook his head.
"What did I say?" Chu Li scoffed.
Elder Bai said, "You said that your enemy … we can't afford to provoke him."
"The Ji Dynasty's Emperor won't come here, right?" Chu Li asked.
