"Master!" Sun Mingyue hurriedly said, "There's no rush."
Song Wanqing said, "Why waste your effort?"
Sun Mingyue frowned.
Song Wanqing shook her head and said, "You're about to become an Enlightened Master. Once you become an Enlightened Master, your fate will be broken."
"Master!" Sun Mingyue frowned and said, "How can there be such a thing? Becoming an Enlightened Master doesn't mean forgetting the past!"
Song Wanqing's gaze fell on Chu Li's left shoulder and nodded in realization.
No wonder her disciple didn't rush back immediately.
The two countries had a truce so they could peacefully cultivate in isolation. Time was tight and they had to go into isolation immediately. The longer they waited, the stronger they would be.
She came over to take a look after waiting for a long time.
It turned out that she didn't leave because Chu Li had lost an arm.
She shook her head. Sun Mingyue was too soft-hearted. This was related to taking over the position of leader and becoming an Enlightened Master. How could it be delayed!
It wasn't a big deal for a martial artist to lose an arm or a leg. It was normal to lose one's life. She was so soft-hearted that she couldn't bear to part with Chu Li.
Song Wanqing sighed and said, "Silly girl, once you become an Enlightened Master, you can't get close to someone who isn't an Enlightened Master. Otherwise, you'll be harming them!"
Chu Li was deep in thought.
Song Wanqing said, "You can't practice that martial art anymore. Otherwise, you'll be harming Chu Li. An Enlightened Master's body is different from a normal person's. Close contact will directly destroy a Grandmaster. Chu Li doesn't have any martial arts."
Sun Mingyue's cheeks immediately turned red. She couldn't suppress her shyness and didn't dare to look at Chu Li.
Chu Li smiled and said, "Thank you, Senior Song, for dispelling my doubts."
Song Wanqing said, "Chu Li, I don't know how you got injured but losing an arm won't stop you from becoming an Enlightened Master. Don't worry, just wait for Mountain Master Zhou to ascend to heaven."
Chu Li smiled and said, "Senior Song, I still want to cultivate to become an Enlightened Master."
"… Your ambition is commendable!" Song Wanqing said slowly, "If you had nothing to do with Ming Yue, I would definitely encourage you to do so. The restrictions of becoming an Enlightened Master are too heavy. However, your relationship with Ming Yue isn't normal. I have to advise you not to take another path. It's best to take the Mountain master's position."
The Mountain Master of Attraction Mountain was the first among the Enlightened Masters and could look down on all other Enlightened Masters.
With such a powerful ally, there was no need to worry about the Holy Church of Light and the Moon Sect being bullied!
Instead of becoming the world's number one, he had chosen to cultivate to become a deity. It was a strenuous and unrewarding task. In the end, it was very likely that he would lose everything and even lose his position as Mountain Chieftain!
This was a great loss for both Sun Mingyue and the Holy Church of Light.
As Sun Mingyue's master and the Bishop of the Holy Church of Light, she had more considerations. Both of them could become Enlightened Masters and they could stay together. Even if they reached the Grandmaster's Boundary in the future, they could still be together. It was much better than Chu Li risking his life.
No matter what, Chu Li would only become an Enlightened Master after a few years. Hence, the two of them had to separate for the time being to prevent Ming Yue from harming him, lest she would regret it for the rest of her life.
Chu Li remained silent and did not comment.
Song Wanqing stopped trying to persuade him and turned to look at Sun Mingyue, "Mingyue, we need to go into seclusion as soon as possible. Time waits for no one."
Sun Mingyue frowned. "Master, let's wait for a few more days."
"If you go into seclusion one day later, you will lose a portion of your strength to become an Empyrean God." Song Wanqing said indifferently, "Consider the severity yourself!"
Chu Li said, "All good things must come to an end. Saint, let's meet again in a few months!"
Sun Mingyue frowned as she looked at him. She wanted to say something but stopped herself.
The two of them had a tacit understanding. Chu Li knew what she was thinking with just one look. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm only missing an arm."
Sun Mingyue sighed and nodded lightly.
"Let's go," Song Wanqing said.
She fluttered and left Ten Despair Valley.
Sun Mingyue stood up and stared deeply at Chu Li. Her bright eyes were overflowing with color and were mesmerizing.
Chu Li smiled and said, "It's not like we'll never meet again. It'll only be a few months."
Sun Mingyue took a step forward and held his large hand. Her delicate and cool hand trembled slightly.
"… Take care!" She took a deep breath and uttered these two words. Then, she twisted her waist and fluttered upward like a cloud. She gradually floated higher and higher until she finally disappeared from his sight.
Chu Li stood on the spot and looked up at the sky. He felt inexplicably melancholic.
The scenes of the past seemed to be right in front of him. Sun Mingyue's every frown and smile appeared clearly.
He had been holding fast to his heart to prevent Sun Mingyue from entering and to guard Xiao Qi. At this time, a gap had been opened. Sun Mingyue had entered without him noticing, but she stayed in a corner and was not noticed by him.
The Evil Dark Dragon left the pool without a sound and came to his side. It stood there motionlessly with him.
After a while, Chu Li calmed down and patted the Evil Dark Dragon's back. The two of them suddenly appeared in the Wheel Pagoda.
His Heavenly Star Insight Technique had not been able to deduce the Wheel Pagoda's formation, but he could break the formation and enter directly.
There were only a few cattail hassocks in the empty pagoda. He sat on the hassocks while the Evil Dark Dragon fought with the illusion. It suddenly leaped up, crouched down, and swung its tail. Chu Li could not sit quietly, so he simply jumped on its back.
Chu Li activated the Dragon Taming Technique and used the Omniscient Mirror to imprint the Concentration Talisman into the void of its mind.
The void of the Evil Dark Dragon's mind was barren. It was empty, gray, and dead silent.
Chu Li appeared out of thin air. His figure turned into three shining golden Concentration Talismans that began to spin in the void of its mind. The ferocious beasts around him pounced on the Evil Dark Dragon and turned into a white mist that entered its head.
The ferocious beasts pounced on it without hesitation. They were not afraid of death, and they all turned into the Evil Dark Dragon's spiritual energy.
The Evil Dark Dragon was stunned and did not move. Its eyes were filled with confusion, but they soon became brighter and the scales on its body became gentler.
Chu Li kept activating the Dragon Taming Technique on its back and felt it grow stronger.
Not only did the Concentration Talisman allow it to absorb the souls in the Wheel Pagoda, but it also condensed and strengthened its soul. It became more and more tenacious, and its will became stronger.
The next time it was bitten by the Spirit Devouring Turtle, it would not be as dispirited as it was this time.
Its current fighting spirit was not as strong as the Flying Cloud Rat. When the Flying Cloud Rat faced the Spirit Devouring Turtle, it would perish together if it could not win. However, the Evil Dark Dragon was not so ruthless.
Chu Li rode on the back of the Evil Dark Dragon and observed the murals. He still felt that they were mysterious and mysterious. He continued to deduce these murals in his mind. His perception was especially sensitive in the Wheel Pagoda.
Suddenly, he had an idea. He dispersed the murals in the void of his mind and began to visualize the Tree of Life and Death.
The towering Tree of Life and Death appeared in the void of his mind. It was huge and led to an infinite height. He merged into the tree and experienced the vicissitudes of the Tree of Life and Death again. It was as if he had really become a Tree of Life and Death and experienced the changes of the world.
He did not know the passage of time until he was awakened by the dragon's roar.
The Evil Dark Dragon was lying on the ground. Its eyes were lively and full of resentment.
Chu Li instantly understood its thoughts. The souls on this floor of the Wheel Pagoda had been completely devoured by it. There were no more illusions, and the murals were clearly displayed.
He nodded and smiled. One man and one dragon went up to the second floor.
He let the Evil Dark Dragon devour the power of souls by itself. He was still immersed in the Tree of Life and Death, comprehending the wonders of the Tree of Life and Death.
After an unknown period of time, he was awakened by the dragon's roar again.
This time, it was not that the power of souls had been devoured completely. It was because the Evil Dark Dragon could not resist its hunger.
Chu Li left with it instantly and returned to Ten Despair Valley.
The Evil Dark Dragon entered the pool. Chu Li sat on the grass beside it and combed through the comprehension he had in the Wheel Pagoda.
The Wheel Pagoda was indeed more conducive to comprehending the Life and Death Scripture.
His Life and Death Scripture had improved by one level compared to before. This was due to the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture and the sudden increase of his spiritual force. Now that he had comprehended it in detail, he had a deeper understanding of the Life and Death Scripture.
He comprehended the Life and Death Scripture for his left arm. He felt that the Life and Death Scripture could regrow his left arm.
