Unfortunately, things did not always go as one wished. Although he had the intention, there was no other way.
His Heavenly Star Insight made another deduction.
Another scene appeared in front of his eyes. He was still a middle-aged man, fighting with a man with light flowing around him. He chased after the man with light all around him. One was fighting while the other was fleeing, flying through the sky. Wherever they passed, rocks would shatter and dirt would fly.
Chu Li left the void of his mind and fell into deep thought again.
Could it be that his future had not changed? Obtaining the Pure Blood Pill and quickly leveling up the Dragon Taming Technique seemed to have messed up the future, but he did not break the path of fate and was still moving forward according to the original path of fate.
Thinking of this, he frowned. It seemed that it was very difficult to break the original path of fate. It was not something that could be done with just a stroke of luck. It was easy to say that man could conquer nature, but it was too difficult to do.
He sighed and shook his head. It seemed that he could only take the last step and go to Hundred-Thousand Hills to look for spirit herbs.
It was too dangerous to look for spirit herbs in Hundred-Thousand Hills.
He had previously used the Heavenly Star Insight to look for spirit herbs in Hundred-Thousand Hills, but every spirit herb was guarded by spirit beasts.
It was not that these spirit herbs were precious, but that although Hundred-Thousand Hills looked huge, every corner was guarded by spirit beasts. They were all territories of spirit beasts. If an outsider invaded, the owner of the territory would not sit and watch. Although he was strong now, he was still no match for spirit beasts.
However, at this point, for the sake of perfecting the Dragon Taming Technique, he had to take a risk and start with the easiest spirit beasts.
He suddenly disappeared and arrived at Spirit Cranes Peak in the next moment.
Two white shadows flashed and two white cranes chased after him again. The two cranes and one man fought for a while before they stopped. Chu Li used the Omniscient Mirror to convey his thoughts to the two cranes.
The spirit cranes chirped and spread their wings. Chu Li flew up and sat on them.
With a clear chirp, the two cranes flew up and entered the clouds in the blink of an eye. Suddenly, the surroundings became unusually cold.
Chu Li had long reached a state where he was immune to heat and cold. He closed his eyes and stuck close to the crane's back. The strong wind that was blowing against his face was too strong. He used the Omniscient Mirror to observe the area below him, searching for spirit herbs.
He suddenly disappeared from the crane's back and appeared halfway up a mountain. There was a seemingly ordinary spirit herb under his feet. It was one of the spirit herbs needed for the Pure Blood Pill.
Through the observation of the Omniscient Mirror, he cautiously reached out his hand and slowly approached the Spirit Herb.
"Screech!" An ear-piercing screech was heard, and a white light instantly shot towards his eyes.
All of a sudden, Chu Li's vision blurred. This shrill scream had the effect of captivating one's soul. His mind was in a trance. Then, the white light was right in front of him. All the hairs on his body stood up, and he quickly moved to the side.
"Chi!" A whistling sound came from the side of his ear. It was the sound of a white light flashing past.
"Squeak!" Another sharp squeak sounded.
This time, Chu Li was prepared. The Maha-Vairocana Buddha in his mind opened his eyes and formed a mudra with both hands. His mind was as still as a rock and was not disturbed by the whistling sound.
Through the Omniscient Mirror, he could clearly see that the white figure was a palm-sized flying mouse called the Flying Cloud Mouse.
Although it was a mouse, it was not the lowest of the spiritual beasts. Instead, it was a powerful spiritual beast of the third grade, just like the spiritual crane. Its speed was as fast as lightning, and its shrill cries were frightening. Almost no one could withstand its surprise attack.
It had a long beard that could be used as wings, and a cold glint shone from its jewel-like eyes. It had a menacing aura, and when it swung its long tail, it was like a thin steel whip that cracked the stones on the ground.
It kept flying towards Chu Li, preventing him from picking up the Spirit Herb. Although Chu Li's body movement technique was fast, he could not outrun it. Thus, he was entangled. Moreover, the Spirit Herb could not be taken directly from the air, so he had to carefully dig it out.
A clear cry came from the sky, and two Spirit Cranes suddenly swooped down toward the Flying Cloud Mouse.
The Flying Cloud Mouse instantly disappeared from Chu Li's sight, avoiding the Spirit Cranes and appearing on top of a pine tree. It stared at the two Spirit Cranes cautiously, and its long beard trembled. Its jewel-like eyes were filled with anger.
The two Spirit Cranes stood in front of Chu Li.
Chu Li quickly took the opportunity to bend down and dig up the Spirit Herb. He was overjoyed to find two more Spirit Herbs, and he was overjoyed.
"Squeak squeak squeak squeak!" The Flying Cloud Mouse squeaked incessantly.
Chu Li's heart skipped a beat, and he knew that something was wrong.
"Squeak squeak squeak squeak!" Suddenly, a sharp squeak was heard from afar, and then several white lights shot over. Two of them were aimed at the two Spirit Cranes, and the other four were aimed at Chu Li at an incredible speed.
Chu Li had already dug up a Spirit Herb, and he quickly shouted, "Go!"
The two Spirit Cranes flapped their wings and flew into the sky.
The Flying Cloud Mice squeaked as they rushed over, and one of them shot at the Spirit Cranes' eyes, while the rest of them shot at Chu Li.
Chu Li suddenly disappeared from the spot, and the next moment, he appeared halfway up another mountain.
The Flying Cloud Mice squeaked as they shot toward him.
Even with Maha-Vairocana's Immobility Scripture, Chu Li was still stunned for a moment. The power of these squeaks was truly shocking. His soul was several times stronger than an ordinary person's, and he also had Maha-Vairocana's Immobility Scripture to protect him, but he still could not withstand it. If it was someone else, even if they were an Enlightened Master, they would only end up in a daze, and there would be no chance of survival. He finally had a taste of how terrifying a Spirit Beast was.
Chu Li flashed again, and he appeared on the back of the Spirit Cranes in mid-air.
The Flying Cloud Mice squeaked and squeaked as they weaved around and squeaked incessantly. They were furious, but they could only watch helplessly as Chu Li and the two Spirit Cranes left.
The Flying Cloud Mice were very fast, and they could also fly in the sky, but they could only fly at low altitudes. They could not fly as high as the Spirit Cranes, so they were taken advantage of by Chu Li and the Spirit Cranes, and they easily retreated.
Chu Li sat on the Spirit Cranes' back, and he secretly wiped away his cold sweat. He had almost died here. If his soul energy had been slightly weaker, he would have been killed by them.
If he had died in their mouths, even his bones would have been gnawed off, and he would not have been able to survive even with the Life and Death Scripture. The Hundred-Thousand Hills was indeed a dangerous place, and even Enlightened Masters would not be able to survive here!
He looked down and shook his head, thinking that it was a pity that he could not dig up the other two Spirit Herbs, and had only managed to dig up one.
He pondered for a moment, and then he sent his thoughts to the two Spirit Cranes. They squeaked, turned around, and flew back. Soon, they flew over the mountain.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak …" The Flying Cloud Mice that had not completely dispersed began to squeak again, and they flew up one after another, trying to catch up to the Spirit Cranes.
Unfortunately, they were just a little bit away from catching up to the Spirit Cranes, so they continued to work hard. Some of the Flying Cloud Mice even used themselves as catapults to help their companions, and they almost caught up to the Spirit Cranes.
The two Spirit Cranes were shocked, and they flew higher again. Then, they circled around the mountain, and all the Flying Cloud Mice chased after them. They were furious, and their gem-like eyes had turned red, which was quite frightening.
However, Chu Li silently appeared beside the two Spirit Herbs, and then he bent down and began to dig.
"Squeak, squeak!" Suddenly, two sharp squeaks were heard, and two white shadows shot toward him.
Chu Li secretly sighed. These fellows should not be underestimated. These two Flying Cloud Mice had managed to hide from the Omniscient Mirror, and they were hiding in a cave. This cave was a little strange, and it could hide the Omniscient Mirror.
