Sun Mingyue frowned as she stared at him. As his body temperature rose, she asked, "Are you sure you're okay?"
Chu Li shook his head without saying a word. He closed his eyes and focused on activating the tenth level of the Indestructible Body of Titanium.
When the thirty-six revolutions were completed, a strange power suddenly emerged from his flesh and blood. It was different from all the other powers. It was also different from the Invincible Vajra Body's previous power. This power was like a thin mist, but also like a layer of white muslin.
The white muslin lightly stuck onto the meridians, protecting them and quickly repairing the damaged meridians that had been scorched by the flames. Then, the white muslin stuck onto the bones, blood vessels, and finally the tendons, flesh, and skin.
Under the protection of this strange energy, the flames could no longer cause any harm. It was still burning, but Chu Li was recovering quickly.
Sun Mingyue sensed the abnormality and looked at Chu Li in surprise. She was curious about what had happened. What kind of injury made Chu Li so serious and how did he get rid of it?
The last time Chu Li was heavily injured, he only managed to suppress it by cultivating with her. It seemed like he did not need her help now.
Under the protection of the tenth level of the Indestructible Body of Titanium, Chu Li channeled the spiritual energy from Outland. The red energy poured into his body like a pillar and quickly healed his injuries. In the blink of an eye, Chu Li had recovered by half.
The feeling of weakness disappeared. He sat up straight and stretched his hand.
Sun Mingyue sat on a big rock opposite him. She was elegant and calm. Her white muslin fluttered so her face could not be seen. Only her bright eyes could be seen. A faint fragrance drifted into Chu Li's nose along with the mountain breeze.
"What happened?" Sun Mingyue asked.
Chu Li waved his hand and the black Spirit Beast Bracelet flew from the bushes to his hand. He passed it to Sun Mingyue. "This is the culprit. It was destroyed by the Vermilion Bird. A feather from the Vermilion Bird landed on it and ignited the Vermilion Bird's Fire. It almost burned me."
"The Vermilion Bird?" Sun Mingyue frowned. "Why did you provoke it?"
"It was a coincidence." Chu Li shook his head and sighed. "Oh right, how did Song Zhifan escape from the previous joint attack?"
"His Blood Escape was too powerful." Sun Mingyue shook her head. "We injured him and were about to capture him, but he blew up both his arms and disappeared instantly. We couldn't track him and he escaped."
"Isn't this too depressing?" Chu Li frowned. "Will we still work together in the future?"
"Even if we don't want to work together, we still have to." Sun Mingyue snorted softly. "We've made a blood feud. He'll definitely take revenge. Instead of waiting for him to take revenge, we might as well take the initiative to attack."
She was extremely dissatisfied. If Tang Xu and the others hadn't been suspicious of each other and didn't have a tacit understanding, Song Zhifan wouldn't have been able to escape no matter how powerful he was. They would have crippled him long ago. However, they had ruined a good situation and made it into an awkward situation.
This was simply a joke. Five great Empyrean Gods working together could not take down a single Empyrean God. If news of this were to spread, it would be enough for Song Zhifan to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat. Fortunately, there was no one around to see this. Otherwise, the five Empyrean Gods would really become a joke.
"Looks like we'll have to continue," Chu Li said. "When?"
"Tang Xu will be in charge. Once he's done investigating, everyone will act immediately. No one will know beforehand," Sun Mingyue said. "Next time, we won't give Song Zhifan a chance. We must take him down."
Chu Li shook his head. "Song Zhifan has a lot of trump cards. No one knows what Song Wuji left behind for him, so you must not be careless. Remember to always think of escaping so that you won't be plotted against by Song Zhifan. Especially since you're related to me, he will definitely target you."
Sun Mingyue smiled faintly. "Of course I know. What about you, how's the progress?"
"With your pursuit, I've gained the initial trust of Elder Fang. He's currently in isolated cultivation on the floating mountain." Chu Li smiled.
"That's good," Sun Mingyue said. "I hope you can fulfill your wish."
"If you can fulfill your wish first, I'll be able to save more effort," Chu Li said.
Sun Mingyue nodded lightly.
She was not confident that her group could take down Song Zhifan. Although she was determined to do so, Song Zhifan was really difficult to deal with. It might be easier to kill him, but it would be difficult to capture him and cripple him.
If Chu Li could cause internal strife on the floating mountain so that Song Zhifan could not be distracted, everyone could take a breather. It would be best if the internal strife caused Song Zhifan to die an unnatural death or be imprisoned on the floating mountain.
"If that's the case, I'll go back." Sun Mingyue slowly stood up.
Chu Li fist saluted and did not ask her to stay. He watched as she slowly merged into the void and disappeared.
He sighed. She had to save him every time he was in danger. It would be a lie to say that he was not touched. Unfortunately, he regretted not meeting her earlier.
He suddenly returned to Jueyuan Valley and appeared near the ice pool in Hundred-Thousand Hills in a flash.
The Azure Dragon and the Vitality Devouring Tortoise were vigilantly patrolling to see if the Vermilion Bird was there. They were half a level lower, but their hands and feet were tied. They could not defeat the Vermilion Bird at all.
Chu Li patted their backs and suddenly disappeared. He was also worried that the little Vermilion Bird would appear again.
However, after that ruthless attack, the little Vermilion Bird would not dare to be so unscrupulous again. Without the protection of the Supreme Vermilion Bird's feathers, the little Vermilion Bird would not be able to defeat the God Slaying Sword. He would still dare to return.
Even so, he tried his best to go and return as soon as possible to avoid being entangled by the little Vermilion Bird. If anything happened, it would really be endless trouble. He was currently not a match for a Supreme Spirit Beast.

In the early morning, Song Zhifan transformed into an Innate Master and slowly stepped into Hundred-Thousand Hills.
As soon as he stepped in, all the pores on his body opened up. Dense spiritual energy surged into his body, and his mind seemed to clear up. He became calm and happy. It was indescribably refreshing. He wanted to look up to the sky and roar.
The peaks of Hundred-Thousand Hills were so tall that they seemed to reach into the sky. Half of the peaks were covered by clouds and mist. The surrounding trees and flowers were mostly Spirit Plants. They grew extremely dense. Even some weeds were rare Spirit Herbs.
He shook his head and sighed. Unfortunately, his current mission was not to collect Spirit Herbs. No matter how powerful the Spirit Herbs were, they were of little use to him now. Spirit Beasts were the foundation. The Spirit Beasts in Hundred-Thousand Hills ate Spirit Herbs like weeds. They ate Spirit Herbs or some exotic plants all day long. The spiritual energy in their blood was so pure that Song Zhifan was excited when he thought of this.
However, Hundred-Thousand Hills was too big. There were not as many Spirit Beasts as he imagined. He walked along the valley for more than ten miles but still did not encounter a single Spirit Beast. He did not even see the smallest Spirit Rabbit. He was disappointed.
After walking for another ten miles, his eyes suddenly lit up.
A young deer was drinking water by a stream in the valley. It was even naughtily swaying its ears and lightly tapping the water with its front hooves. As it drank, it looked at its own reflection in the water, as if it was playing with its own reflection.
Seeing this little deer, he could not help but think of his previous experience. He was almost killed by that little deer. At that time, he was like a tiger that fell to the plains and was bullied by dogs. Now, even if there was a big deer, he could still deal with it.
He was stunned again and suddenly realized that he was not the same as before. He was just an Innate Master. Unless he unlocked the seal and became a Divine Realm master, it would be time for him to disappear.
Otherwise, he would not be a match for the Spirit Deer. They were too fast.
Thinking of this, he could not help but stop approaching.
