Both of them arrived at the stone room from before. The bald elder took out the Star Stone and passed it to him. He sighed. "This stone doesn't have much use. It's just beautiful. You must have been obsessed to choose it."
Chu Li smiled. "Yes, I did want to give it to a friend because it's beautiful."
"Oh —" The bald elder came to a sudden realization. He looked at Chu Li and smiled. "I didn't expect you to be so particular about this at your age. You're getting younger, haha!"
He patted Chu Li's shoulder with a look of admiration.
Chu Li chuckled and took the Star Stone. He slowly kept it in his pocket and suppressed the excitement in his heart.
He could feel the Omniscient Mirror in his mind. It was flickering non-stop as if it was about to jump out of his mind. It could not wait to devour the Star Stone. He did not suppress it forcefully and revealed a hint of it.
The bald elder was sharp. He laughed. "Looks like you're still an infatuated person!"
He thought Chu Li was so excited because he could please his lover. He seemed to see his lover's smile and could not help but laugh.
However, infatuated people were usually trustworthy. They were not bad people. He liked Chu Li even more. He smiled. "Alright, I won't hold you up. Go!"
Chu Li fist saluted. "Thank you!"
Both of them strode out of the cave. Chu Li stepped out of the stone door and turned to look. The cave was already hidden. The stone door and the surrounding stone walls were one. It would have been difficult to discover it if he did not have the Omniscient Mirror.
Seeing this Hidden Treasure, he knew how profound the Changsheng Denomination's foundation was, which was beyond his imagination. This must be the foundation of a big sect that had existed for thousands of years. If he could enter the Hidden Treasure of Longevity, he would not hesitate to sacrifice his identity as Baili Na. After entering the Hidden Treasure, he would fight for it!
Thinking of this, he could not wait to return to his courtyard. He sat cross-legged on the bed in his bedroom. He placed the Star Stone on his forehead and activated the Heavenly Star Insight Skill.
Under the observation of the Omniscient Mirror, he could clearly see a flash on his forehead. A faint light flashed and disappeared as if the stars were blinking. Then, the Star Stone turned into a blue light and went into his forehead.
He quickly focused on the void in his mind.
After the blue light entered his mind, it shot directly onto the omniscient mirror.
Both the Heavenly Star Insight Technique and the Omniscient Mirror flowed endlessly. The two of them merged into one and were indistinguishable from one another. Observation was performed while deduction was performed, and deduction was performed while observation was performed.
The blue light flickered on the surface of the mirror. He felt that after an hour, the blue light gradually dimmed, as if it had been completely absorbed by the mirror, leaving only a trace. In the end, this trace was also absorbed, leaving nothing behind.
The Omniscient Mirror returned to normal, brighter and more transparent than before. Other than that, there were no other changes.
Looking at the Omniscient Mirror, Chu Li was eager to have a try. So he thought about one thing and guessed which Celestial Being in the Changshen Sect was stronger and posed the greatest threat to him.
As soon as he thought of it, a person appeared in the Omniscient Mirror.
Chu Li scrutinized the man.
He had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a pair of bright and piercing eyes that carried the curiosity of a child. He was tall and slender, like a cheetah. His slender body contained an explosive power that no one dared to underestimate.
Chu Li had never seen this person before, but he was clearly reflected in his mind. It was amazing.
Moreover, this person seemed to have noticed that someone was spying on him. He raised his thick eyebrows and scanned his surroundings as if he wanted to see Chu Li through the Omniscient Mirror.
Chu Li's heart skipped a beat. He retracted the Heavenly Star Insight Technique and the Omniscient Mirror.
He was curious about this person's identity. He looked young, but appearance was the most difficult thing for the Changshen Sect disciples to rely on. They could not determine the age of the Changshen Sect disciples through appearance, just like Elder Fang and Song Zhifan.
There was a knock on the door. He got up and went to the courtyard. When he opened the door, Lu Jun was standing outside.
Chu Li smiled and closed fist saluted.
Lu Jun said, "I heard that you fought with Senior Guo and the others?"
Chu Li nodded.
Lu Jun sized him up. "Are you hurt?"
"Just a small injury." Chu Li said, "Fortunately, the Temple Leader helped me."
"Elder Fang is really daring!" Lu Jun praised. "After so long, only Elder Fang dares to fight a Celestial Being. How satisfying!"
Chu Li smiled. "Everyone knows about it?"
"Everyone knows." Lu Jun said, "Everyone is praising you."
Chu Li nodded. "Everyone must be saying that I'm stupid and that there's something wrong with my brain."
Lu Jun chuckled and waved his hand. "Don't care about their gossip. Be careful. Don't let Senior Guo and the others get anything on you. Otherwise, they'll kill you!"
Chu Li said, "I'm going to ask the Bishop for permission to leave the mountain."
"Hmm, that's a good idea." Lu Jun quickly nodded. "I think the Bishop will agree."
If he stayed on the floating mountain, Guo Zhangjing and the others would definitely find a chance to teach him a lesson. Next time, they would be more severe and might even kill.
"We have a total of four Celestial Beings on the floating mountain, right?" Chu Li asked. "What do they look like?"
"There are four." Lu Jun nodded. "Two young and two old, but the one who looks younger is older."
"Who is this?" Chu Li drew a face on the ground. It was the face he saw in the Omniscient Mirror.
"Song Sizu, the original Lord of the Tianhua Palace." Lu Jun lowered his voice. "I heard that he's the most powerful among the four Celestial Beings. However, he's been in seclusion ever since he arrived. We rarely see him."
Chu Li nodded thoughtfully.
The Lord of the Tianhua Palace. He had heard of the Tianhua Palace in the Longevity Church. There was the Heavenly King Palace, the God of Blood Palace, the Righteous Palace, the Heaven's Punishment Hall, and finally the Tianhua Palace.
—
The next day, Chu Li reported to Elder Fang that he wanted to leave the floating mountain. He wanted to travel down the mountain and see the situation outside.
Elder Fang immediately understood his intention. He wanted to avoid the Celestial Beings.
She agreed without hesitation.
Chu Li left the floating mountain the next day. He did not go to Goddess Attraction Mountain immediately. He first walked around the floating mountain. He faintly felt that someone was following behind him.
The Omniscient Mirror quickly deduced the person's location. It was Guo Zhangjing.
He had been hiding in the void and silently followed behind him.
Chu Li frowned. He could feel Guo Zhangjing's murderous intent. It was obvious that he wanted to kill him secretly. As the former Lord of the Heavenly Ruler Palace of the Longevity Sect, he was so stubborn and narrow-minded.
None of the Celestial Beings he came into contact with were magnanimous, broad-minded, or even benevolent.
Perhaps such Celestial Beings would not descend to the world?
He suddenly turned to look at the void. It was where Guo Zhangjing was. He fist saluted. "What brings you here, Senior Guo?"
Guo Zhangjing slowly appeared. The brilliance around him was restrained. He sized Chu Li up. "You're a little strange."
Chu Li said, "Senior Guo, you don't have to find an excuse to kill me. Just do it. There are no outsiders here. No one will know even if you kill me."
"I know that the Heaven's Punishment Hall has a secret skill that allows one to leave a message before death," Guo Zhangjing said.
Chu Li frowned. "Then what does Senior Guo mean? Does he want me to leave a message for the Bishop and die in vain? "
"Baili Na, if you don't want to die, there's a way," Guo Zhangjing said.
Chu Li said, "Senior Guo, please speak your mind."
