"Rumble!" He didn't know how much time had passed, but a loud explosion sounded in his ears, like the rumbling of heavenly thunder.
His eyes suddenly lit up. It was as if his soul had left his body and entered an endless void.
A bright moon hung in the sky. Under the bright moon, a three-headed Buddha sat cross-legged on a huge lotus in the vast void while a three-headed Heavenly Demon stood on flames.
The bright moon in the sky slowly descended and turned into a huge mirror that stood between the Buddha and the Heavenly Demon. It was bright, clear, and flawless.
Apart from becoming more lifelike, the giant Buddha did not change much, but the Heavenly Demon was completely different.
The current Heavenly Demon had three faces, just like the giant Buddha.
One face was angry, one face was happy, and one face was calm. The three faces chanted the Heavenly Demon Scripture at the same time and spat out dark golden lotuses that fell on the Heavenly Demon's body. With each dark golden lotus, the Heavenly Demon became stronger.
Chu Li could clearly feel that his body was becoming stronger. The giant Buddha and the Heavenly Demon were strengthening his body.
When he used the Omniscient Mirror to observe the outside, the entire ravine appeared clearly in his mind, especially the Heavenly Demon Statue. The flames on the Heavenly Demon Statue were so real that he did not dare to look at it directly.
Apart from the Heavenly Demon Statue, the Four Grand Elders were also circulating a strange heart technique. It should be an inherited skill, so he memorized it.
Everyone in the ravine appeared in front of him. Some were cultivating, some were sleeping, some were chatting and laughing, and some were even eating supper.
The moon was shining brightly in the sky and the ravine was brightly lit. It was quiet, so it should be midnight.
He quickly found Zhe Ying.
Zhe Ying was in a room studying the first half of the Heavenly Demon Scripture. He smiled from time to time, but soon revealed a troubled expression.
The Heavenly Demon Scripture was so profound that it was almost impossible for him to understand it on his own. However, he did not want to give it away and wanted to keep it for himself.
Chu Li had expected that he would keep it for himself and would never give it away.
Zhe Ying suddenly sighed in relief and got up to open the window. He rubbed the space between his eyebrows while facing the comfortable night breeze.
His house was built on a stone wall. He could see the beautiful scenery of the valley when he pushed open the window. He looked at the clear lake and felt the cool breeze blowing gently. His agitated heart slowly calmed down and he returned to his bed to continue studying the Scripture of the Heavenly Demon.
As Zhe Ying stared at the second half of the Heavenly Demon Scripture, he thought of Chu Li and his killing intent surged. He thought to himself that he could not let Du Feng live and that it would be best if he killed him tomorrow. Otherwise, if other people found out that he had obtained the Heavenly Demon Scripture, they would definitely ask him to give it to them.
Once the Heavenly Demon Scripture was given out, there would definitely be more people in the sect who would have a deeper understanding of it than him and cultivate faster than him, even though his comprehension was not the best. It would be impossible for him to become the number one expert in the sect, or even the world.
He would never allow such a thing to happen. He must monopolize the Heavenly Demon Scripture, then become an Enlightened Master and rule the world!
When he thought of this, he clenched his fists tightly. He could not suppress the excitement in his heart. This time, he really had a series of fortuitous encounters. Not only did he manage to devour Du Feng's Heavenly Demonic Orb and ascend to the sixth floor, he even managed to obtain the Peerless Treasure, the Heavenly Demonic Scripture!
Haha, this Du Feng really had a fortuitous encounter, but he didn't have this fate. Such a fortuitous encounter actually came knocking on his door, waiting to be used as a wedding dress, haha!
When he thought of this, he was overjoyed and extremely proud of himself.
Chu Li used the Omniscient Mirror to observe his thoughts. His killing intent was surging, but it was quickly suppressed. He was calm and full of confidence.
Being able to use the Omniscient Mirror meant that he could also use God's Limbs, so he could leave at any time.
However, he was bound and his meridians were sealed by the nine golden needles, so he could not use his inner energy. He wondered if he could use God's Limbs.
When he thought of this, he disappeared from the metal bed in a flash and stood beside it.
Chu Li smiled. It seemed like he could really escape. Although he could not use his inner energy, it did not hinder him from using God's Limbs. This divine power was indeed mysterious.
He reached out and pulled out the nine thin and long golden needles. His Dantian was instantly restored, and a vast inner energy surged around his body. His cultivation level was instantly restored.
He remained silent and had no intention of leaving right away.
How could he let go of someone who had devoured him!
A moment later, he lay on the stone bed again. His legs and arms suddenly became smaller. With the Bone Shrinkage Skill, his limbs were like a baby's as he easily inserted them into the cold iron rings. He activated the Life and Death Scripture and the inner energy around his body dispersed, returning to his original appearance.
He waited quietly for Zhe Ying's arrival. The cool air from the Heavenly Demonic Stone was still drifting into his mind, strengthening his soul.
He lay on the bed and carefully observed the changes in his body. He noticed that the range of the Omniscient Mirror had suddenly doubled. It was originally ten miles away, but now it had a radius of twenty miles. It was beyond his imagination.
It seemed like the Heavenly Demon Statue earlier had caused his soul energy to burst through the void of his mind. After recovering, it also strengthened his soul. Without destruction, there can be no construction. It could be considered a blessing in disguise. However, he dared not enjoy this blessing, so he did not dare to do it again.

Zhe Ying was even more anxious than him. He hurried over after breakfast and changed into a white tunic.
As soon as he entered the stone room, Zhe Ying smiled. "Brother Du, did you sleep well last night?"
Chu Li replied lazily, "Very well."
"So your soul must have recovered better?" Zhe Ying asked with a smile. "Can you recite the second half of the Heavenly Demon Scripture now?"
Chu Li answered without hesitation, "Yes."
Zhe Ying muttered to himself and frowned at him. "You're not playing any tricks, are you? Brother Du, you should know that I won't be so polite if I find out, right? "
Chu Li replied, "I want to be free as soon as possible too."
"That's good." Zhe Ying nodded.
Chu Li asked, "You grew up in the Heavenly Demonic Sect, right?"
"You want to know more about me?" Zhe Ying could not help but laugh. "I grew up in the sect. My parents were both disciples of the Heavenly Demonic Sect, but they both died during a mission. I'm the only one left."
"No wonder the Elders value you so much."
"That's right. They watched me grow up and take good care of me," Zhe Ying said proudly. "But I don't like this ravine at all. It's too small and quiet. I like the bustling world outside. I don't want to be trapped in this small ravine for the rest of my life!"
Chu Li asked, "You don't have any friends in the ravine, do you?"
"I don't need friends!"
"How pitiful."
Zhe Ying sneered. "You yearn for friends because your heart is weak and you need others. You can't be self-sufficient. Life has always been lonely. You came to this world alone and will die alone. No one can accompany you!"
Chu Li asked, "Don't you have any friends outside?"
"No!" Zhe Ying replied coldly. "I'm a loner and live a carefree life!"
Chu Li nodded and said, "The way you live is indeed pitiful. You only live for yourself. There's no meaning in living."
Zhe Ying said disdainfully, "Hmph, there are endless delicacies and beautiful women in this world. Just enjoy yourself to your heart's content. It's very enjoyable!"
"Alright, then I have one last wish," Chu Li said calmly. "Swallow my Heavenly Demonic Orb and I'll recite the second half of the Heavenly Demonic Scripture. After that, you can just kill me!"
"… Alright, I'll grant your wish!" Zhe Ying felt that Du Feng was acting a little strange today. It seemed like he really wanted to die. That would be for the best. That way, he would not play any tricks.
It was better to go along with someone who was going to die.
Zhe Ying pressed his right palm against Chu Li's chest and activated the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique again.
Chu Li asked, "The Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique doesn't require visualization?"
Zhe Ying shook his head and continued to activate the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique.
Chu Li sighed and said, "That's good! … I have one last wish. "
Zhe Ying frowned as he looked at him.
