Chu Li tested the remaining five spirit herbs one by one and found them one by one.
What surprised him was that these spirit herbs did not only exist in the Hundred-Thousand Hills, but also outside the Hundred-Thousand Hills. None of them had gone extinct. Although they were in a sparsely populated area, they were still stubbornly surviving.
Sun Mingyue asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Chu Li turned to look at her and smiled. "Do me another favor."
"Tell me." Sun Mingyue pointed at her face. "You better wash your face."
Chu Li could not help but laugh.
He could see his current appearance clearly through the Omniscient Mirror. His appearance of bleeding from all five orifices was indeed frightening. No wonder Sun Mingyue rushed over and looked at him strangely as if he was really dead.
However, the previous situation was no different from death. He had almost died and the backlash from the Heavenly Star Insight still lingered in his mind.
He went to the pool to wash his face and Sun Mingyue handed him a silk handkerchief.
Chu Li took it and wiped his face before returning it to her. He smiled. "I found the location of the other five spirit herbs. Saint, please send someone to get them for me."
He could see the locations in his mind but did not dare to teleport there directly. He could not simply go to places he had not been to personally with God's Limbs. This was the limitation of God's Limbs and he dared not violate it.
"No problem," Sun Mingyue said. "Did you really find their locations?"
Chu Li smiled and nodded. "I'll know once I try."
"Looks like your deduction skill is getting better," Sun Mingyue said. "Is the Heaven Peeking Skill so powerful?"
Chu Li replied, "I don't have the Heaven Peeking Skill. I had a fortuitous encounter."
Sun Mingyue stared at him and scoffed. She knew that the danger earlier was related to the power of deduction.
Chu Li's luck was really amazing. It was probably because of his luck that he was able to obtain the Supreme Titanium Scripture. Sun Mingyue had taken advantage of him. However, this skill was too amazing.
If he could calculate the location of spirit herbs while sitting at home, he would be able to find all kinds of rare herbs in the world. If he refined them into spirit pills, his cultivation would naturally improve by leaps and bounds. The thought of it was frightening.
However, in the end, the miraculous effects of spirit pills were minimal. Especially at his level, the spiritual energy of this world was not very useful to him. Even spirit pills would not be of much use to him. It was a pity.
Although the elixir didn't have much use for him, it was different for others.
She stared at Chu Li with her bright eyes. "I know that your alchemy skills are top-notch and that you've obtained the Treasured Pill Scripture, am I right?"
Chu Li smiled and nodded.
Naturally, his performance as Zhao Dahe could not be hidden from Sun Mingyue.
Sun Mingyue said, "Then let's refine some spirit pills."
Chu Li shook his head. "I don't have the time."
"What's wrong with you?" Sun Mingyue snorted.
Chu Li said, "I want to catch up to you as much as I can. Otherwise, if you become an Enlightened Master and I don't, won't it be awkward?"
"What's there to be embarrassed about?" Sun Mingyue smiled.
Chu Li shook his head.
"Now, the Holy Church's talents have withered, and we have no successors." Sun Mingyue frowned and said, "No matter how powerful I am, I can't make up for it. Speaking of which, it's all because of you. Aren't you going to help?"
"… Alright, I'll get a batch of Spirit Pills in the future, but the power of Spirit Pills can't be relied on." Chu Li said, "We can only build a foundation. At the end of the day, we still have to rely on our own efforts and luck. Don't count on it, especially not letting others know about it. Otherwise, we won't be able to live in peace!"
"Of course, I understand." Sun Mingyue's heart skipped a beat.
Indeed, they had to guard against this. Once the news was leaked, the Fu Dynasty would definitely seize it by force. No matter how powerful they were, they could not stop the greed of others.

Five days later, Sun Mingyue appeared at Ten Despair Valley again and brought four spirit herbs to Chu Li.
Chu Li was sitting on the grass by the pool, looking at the four jade boxes. He looked up at her in surprise.
Sun Mingyue shook her head and sighed. "I didn't get the last spirit herb. It was snatched away by someone."
"Who?" Chu Li frowned.
Sun Mingyue said, "A disciple of the Great One Palace."
Chu Li said, "Such a coincidence?"
He did not suspect that Sun Mingyue was trying to drag him down to deal with the Great One Palace because there was no need for that. As long as she mentioned it, he would naturally help. There was no need to resort to such means, so it was really a coincidence.
Sun Mingyue said, "It should be a coincidence."
"What about the spirit herb?" Chu Li asked, "Is it with the Great One Palace?"
"It should be with the Great One Palace," Sun Mingyue said. "They should recognize this spirit herb, right?"
Chu Li pondered and slowly nodded. "They should recognize it."
The Great One Palace was an expert in refining talismans and alchemy. No one in the world could compare to them, especially when it came to Formation Breaking Talismans. However, there were not many jade talismans and spirit pills in the outside world, and each of them was exceptionally precious.
Since they had snatched the spirit herb, they would naturally recognize it.
Chu Li thought about it and knew that it was the Cloudy Heaven Grass, which was very valuable.
Sun Mingyue said, "Since they recognize it, you don't have to worry. I'm just worried that they don't know what it is and will destroy the spirit herb. You can't do anything about that. Now, all you have to do is snatch it back. That shouldn't be difficult, right?"
Chu Li laughed. "It won't be easy."
"Actually, if you send them an invitation and ask for the spirit herb, won't they obediently hand it over?" Sun Mingyue pursed her lips and chuckled.
Chu Li's eyes lit up. "I can give it a try!"
"Then I'll send someone to deliver the invitation." Sun Mingyue smiled.
Chu Li nodded.
He thought for a while and disappeared in a flash, appearing on his own island in the High Duke's Public House.
Xue Ling was watering the Soaring Grass in the courtyard. When she saw him, she quickly greeted him. "Young Master."
Chu Li said, "Give me an invitation for my visit."
Xue Ling turned around and glided away. Soon, she came back with an antique, elegant, and unique invitation.
"Prepare the alchemy furnace. I'll refine pills in two days." Chu Li took the invitation and instructed before disappearing.
"Yes." Xue Ling agreed and continued watering the Soaring Grass. She did not think anything was amiss.
When Sun Mingyue saw him appear with the invitation in her hand, she knew that he returned to the High Duke's Public House to retrieve it. She took it and smiled. "Just wait for the good news. I'll have someone send it over as soon as possible."
Chu Li smiled. "I hope they know what's good for them."
"That depends on your reputation." Sun Mingyue smiled.
Chu Li smiled and nodded.
He was also curious about the outcome.

The Great One Palace was located on the mountainside of Flying Dragon Mountain. It was shrouded by clouds and a large formation. Even if an outsider reached the foot of the mountain, they would not be able to see the actual situation here. They would only be able to find their way here if they knew the ins and outs of the Great One Palace.
In the evening, the setting sun shrouded Flying Dragon Mountain, turning it into a rose-colored peak. Two middle-aged men appeared at the foot of the mountain. They were dressed in green robes and were in high spirits with sparkling eyes.
The two looked similar, but one was slightly taller while the other was slightly shorter.
The two stopped at the foot of the mountain and looked up at Flying Dragon Mountain. They shouted, "Zhu Cheng and Zhu Da from the Holy Church of Light are here to deliver a letter!"
Two figures suddenly appeared in front of them. They were two young men in purple robes. They fist saluted at the two.
The slightly shorter middle-aged man, Zhu Da, took out a visit card and handed it over. "We're here to deliver a letter on behalf of Goddess Attraction Mountain's Chu Li. This is the visit card."
The two young men in purple robes looked at each other and looked at Zhu Cheng and Zhu Da.
