Chu Li said, "I heard that the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique can severely injure Enlightened Masters."
"That's only possible after reaching the eighth level." Elder Li said coldly, "You're only at the seventh floor now. It's impossible for us to push you to the eighth floor in one go. After the seventh floor, you'll have to work hard on your own. We won't be able to help you. Besides, even if you reach the eighth floor, you'll have to meet some conditions to heavily injure a Heavenly God!"
Chu Li was surprised. "What condition?"
Elder Li said, "The Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique devours Empyrean God's energy and turns it into your own. Only then will you have a chance to injure an Empyrean God, but … without Empyrean God's energy, no matter how pure your inner energy is, it's like tofu against a knife, completely useless!"
Chu Li frowned. "The Enlightened Master's energy …"
"Don't let your imagination run wild." Elder Bai laughed. "You're not Du Feng. You don't need to seek revenge on an Enlightened Master."
Chu Li's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly used the Omniscient Mirror to check if Elder Bai's unintentional words had aroused his suspicion.
He did not immediately change the topic, or else it would easily arouse suspicion. These old fellows were all shrewd people, and if he was not careful, they would come back to their senses.
Chu Li said, "I'm just afraid of encountering an Enlightened Master. At least I'll have a way to defend myself."
"If you want to devour the Enlightened Master's energy, you'll have to find an Enlightened Master and let him give you a palm strike, or go to the Imperial Mausoleum."
Chu Li asked curiously, "The Imperial Mausoleum has the Enlightened Master's energy?"
Elder Bai smiled and said, "After the Emperor passed away, his remains remained, and his body contained the Enlightened Master's energy. If he could devour the Enlightened Master's energy, he wouldn't be defenseless against an Enlightened Master."
Chu Li was even more curious now. "You can still retain the Enlightened Master's energy after death?"
"This is the wonder of Empyrean Gods." Elder Du shook his head and said, "We're not Enlightened Masters, so we don't know the profoundness behind this. The Enlightened Master's energy is also the reason why the remains remain immortal. It's as if only the spirit has returned to the Outland, but the body still retains its instincts. It's as if the body is still alive and continues to cultivate."
"An Enlightened Master is indeed mysterious!" Chu Li exclaimed. "I will definitely cultivate the Heavenly Demonic Power to perfection!"
Elder Li said coldly, "Do you think perfection is easy? If it was that easy, the sect founder wouldn't be the only one who had cultivated it to perfection! "
Elder Du said with a smile, "Little Ying, work hard. Try to cultivate to perfection. At that time, we can build a Heavenly Demon Realm in the Heavenly Demonic Sect. That way, we won't have to leave our disciples behind after they die."
Chu Li replied, "Yes, I will do my best!"
"Go and rest." Elder Bai waved his hand and said, "You've just entered the seventh level, so you need to consolidate your strength. Don't be greedy!"
"Yes." Chu Li gave a fist salute.
"Go ahead," Elder Du said with a smile.
As Elder Du watched Chu Li slowly walk away, he was overjoyed. "This young fellow is really lucky to have met Du Feng, who came knocking on his door. He's given Young Ying a great opportunity and saved him twenty years of hard work!"
"I don't know if this is a blessing or a curse!" Elder Li said coldly.
"Junior Brother Li, you love to spoil the fun." Elder Du smiled nonchalantly and said, "We weren't this smart when we were young. To think that he could think of this. How bold of him! Very accurate! "

Chu Li arrived at the stone room early in the morning and looked at Zhe Ying who was lying on the metal bed.
Zhe Ying was still in a deep sleep. His body was almost in hibernation, and only a trace of his breath was keeping him alive.
Chu Li took out a silver needle and pricked the tip of Zhe Ying's index finger. Then, he put the needle away in his sleeve and turned to leave.
He used his Light-body Technique and fluttered like a gust of wind. He arrived in front of a stone tower halfway up the stone wall.
This stone tower was square and had a simple and unadorned design. It did not look like a Sutra Library at all.
At this moment, the door was tightly shut. Chu Li went forward and secretly took out a silver needle from his sleeve. He smeared the blood on his left index finger so that it looked like his left index finger had been pricked. Then, he inserted his index finger into a small hole in the stone door.
"Boom!" The stone door immediately opened as soon as the blood was smeared on it.
Chu Li sighed in relief. He had seen through the Omniscient Mirror that the Heavenly Demonic Sect disciples had passed a blood test to enter the Sutra Library.
The Heavenly Demonic Sect could change their appearance, but they could not change their blood. The Sutra Library used blood as a proof of entry, which was most useful for Heavenly Demonic Sect. He sighed to himself. After killing Zhe Ying, he would not be able to enter the Sutra Library anymore!
He slowly stepped into the stone building. The inside looked like an ordinary building, with shelves upon shelves of secret manuals and miscellaneous books placed on the shelves.
Chu Li flipped through the books and saw many martial arts secret manuals, but he did not pay much attention to them.
What he lacked now was not secret manuals, but time to cultivate. All the martial arts he cultivated were top-notch antique studies, and he could reach Enlightened Mastery's Boundary if he cultivated any of them to the peak.
However, antique studies like this were more difficult to cultivate. Becoming an Enlightened Mastery was as difficult as ascending to heaven.
He was not greedy and went straight to the third floor to find the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique. Then, he carefully studied its cultivation method and usage method. Beside the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique secret manual were some cultivation notes about the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique. He could gain other usage notes, which would be of great help to him.
After flipping through it, he had a complete understanding of the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique. Now that he had a rough idea of what to do, he decided to leave.
Right now, the only thing that he could not let go of in the Heavenly Demonic Sect was the Heavenly Demon Statue. Unfortunately, the Heavenly Demon Statue was not something that he could lay his hands on. Otherwise, he could just carry the Heavenly Demon Statue and disappear.
Even though he had seen the four Grand Elders' mental cultivation method and the inheritance method of the Sky Demon Statue, he did not have the chance to use it in front of the Sky Demon Statue. The four Grand Elders had been guarding the Sky Demon Statue closely, not leaving it for even a moment. The last opportunity was very rare, and he had encountered it.
On the morning of the third day, he came to the main hall. Elder Li was meditating on a praying mat. The bright and beautiful morning light shone on the glass of the main hall, the light was bright and gentle.
Chu Li gave a fist salute. "Honorable Master Li, I couldn't get anything out of him. I've already killed Du Feng."
"Oh …" Elder Li looked up at him, "You want to leave?"
"Yes," Chu Li said sheepishly, "I still have something to deal with outside. I want to go out and settle it as soon as possible."
"Revenge?" Elder Li smiled coldly and said, "Plain Maiden Palace's disciple?"
Chu Li said, "Don't worry, Honorable Master. I won't kill her."
"I'm not afraid that you'll kill her. I'm afraid that she'll kill you!" Elder Li laughed coldly. "Do you think that Plain Maiden Palace is a pushover? Don't you know why they're one of the eight major sects? "
Chu Li fell silent. He tried his best to figure out Zhe Ying's character and act according to his character.
"Do you think that you can take revenge now that you've cultivated to the seventh level?"
"Yes."
"Then you should give up." Elder Li scoffed. "With your current abilities, you'll definitely lose if you go against Plain Maiden Palace. You're just courting death!"
Chu Li frowned and looked unconvinced.
Elder Du scoffed. "You've fought with Plain Maiden Palace's disciple, so you must've been poisoned with Soul-tracking Incense. Once you leave the valley, Plain Maiden Palace's disciple will immediately catch up to you and kill you. Even if you change your appearance, it'll be useless. Plain Maiden Palace's tracking technique is top-notch."
"Do I have no choice but to swallow my anger?" Chu Li asked.
Elder Li said, "You can cultivate in the valley for two months. After two months, Plain Maiden Palace's Soul-tracking Incense will lose its effect."
Chu Li shook his head.
Elder Li's expression darkened. "Looks like you'll have to suffer!"
Chu Li said, "Honorable Master, I'll be careful!"
"Alright," Elder Li said coldly. "Your life is your own. If you don't cherish it, others can't do anything about it!"
"Honorable Master, I've already thrown Du Feng's corpse at Breaking Soul Cliff," Chu Li said.
Elder Li frowned and looked at him. "Hmm, he's completely dead, right? Don't come back to life. This guy's very tough! "
"I've chopped off his head," Chu Li replied.
"Forget it then. You may leave." Elder Li waved his hand.
Chu Li fist saluted and retreated. He then bid farewell to the other three elders and left the valley.
As for Zhe Ying, he had already used God's Limbs to transport him back to the island that the High Duke's Public House had given him.
He planned to leave Zhe Ying unconscious for a few more days and kill him when he was a thousand miles away from Heavenly Demonic Sect.
Logically speaking, he should not kill Zhe Ying if he wanted to return to Heavenly Demonic Sect in the future. Heavenly Demonic Sect would definitely sense Zhe Ying's death, so he could not kill Zhe Ying.
However, he really did not want Zhe Ying to continue living. He would rather cut off Heavenly Demonic Sect's benefits and kill him.
