Originally, he wanted to stay in the Lower Realm and did not want to come to the Outland. He would occasionally visit Sun Mingyue or get some treasures back but the Star Stones disrupted his original plan.
He urgently needed the Star Stones to upgrade the Star Insight so that he could break the Heart of Asura. The Star Stones were not as easy to obtain as Sun Mingyue said. He needed enough power and contribution.
The big sects had a unique advantage in this aspect. Otherwise, he would not be able to obtain much by himself.
It seemed that joining the Hall of Rain Masters was a shortcut to obtain the Star Stones. It would definitely be faster to collect the Star Stones with the strength of one faction.
However, this was not something he could join just because he wanted to. He still needed a certain method to make the Hall of Rain Masters actively recruit him and give them a glimmer of hope so that he could enter.
"But don't think that the Hall of Rain Masters will invite you just because you are an Enlightened Master. It is not that easy to enter the nine factions. The threshold is extremely high and they think highly of themselves. They almost never accept outsiders. "Hui Qing Qing said.
Chu Li raised his eyebrows. "So, I have no chance to enter?"
"If you enter like this, there is no chance. Hui Qing said, "No matter how weak the Hall of Rain Masters is, it's not a place that anyone can enter. It also has its rules. It requires the joint recommendation of the disciples in the Hall of Rain Masters. Otherwise, no matter how strong you are, you won't be able to enter the Hall of Rain Masters."
"Then how can I enter?" Chu Li asked.
"By chance." Hui Qing shook her head. "Other than chance, there is no other way. Small factions like the Hall of Tai Yue will recruit you without hesitation. They are impatient and do not care about their reputation. However, it is almost impossible for the nine factions to do so. Their arrogance is ingrained in their bones. They will only beg for help, so you can only rely on chance."
Chu Li frowned. "Chance …"
"Yes, only chance," Hui Qing Qing said. "You must not go to the Hall of Rain Masters alone. If you want to join, they will feel that you have ulterior motives and will reject you. It will be useless no matter how strong your martial arts are."
Chu Li said, "That is how they do things?"
"That is how the Hall of Rain Masters does things. They are very willful. Hui Qing said, "Who asked them to be one of the Nine Divisions? They are so arrogant and overbearing. No one can doubt them, and even if they doubt them, they can only keep it to themselves. No matter how weak the Hall of Rain Masters is, it is still one of the Nine Divisions. It is not up to others to criticize them."
"Alright then, we'll just have to depend on our luck." Chu Li nodded slowly.
Hui Qing said, "You want to stay in the Sky Beyond Heaven and not come back?"
Chu Li shook his head. "Although the Outland is good, it's not my home. It's better for me to stay here."
"I understand." Hui Qing said faintly, "He's interested in the mystical arts and medicine of the Outland."
Chu Li nodded slowly.
Hui Qing said, "That really depends on your luck. If you want to obtain these, the Nine Divisions are the best place to go. Although the other sects are not bad, after all, each sect has its own differences. No matter how strong your martial arts are, you are not a direct disciple, unless you enter Goddess Attraction Mountain."
Chu Li could only nod.
Xiao Qi suggested, "Master, why don't you let Chu Li join the Tai Qing Sect?"
"The Tai Qing Sect is not a good place to go." Hui Qing said lightly, "It's best not to go."
Xiao Qi and Xiao Shi looked at her.
Hui Qing said, "They value the inside and outside of the sect very much. Chu Li doesn't cultivate the martial arts of the Tai Qing Sect, he can't be considered one of us even if he goes there, unless both of you are in the Sky Beyond Heaven. Even then, his position in the sect won't be too high."
"Is martial arts not the most important thing in the Outland?" Xiao Shi asked.
Hui Qing shook her head slowly. "It really isn't."
Seeing that Xiao Shi, Xiao Qi, and Chu Li were shocked, Hui Qing continued, "The situation of each sect is different. For example, the sects of the Nine Heavens, the most important thing is aptitude, followed by inheritance, and martial arts is the third. The Nine Divisions are different, they value martial arts more. Those who are capable are respected. Not only do you need powerful martial arts, but you also need wisdom and ability to do things to be able to contribute."
Lu Yurong said thoughtfully, "Because the lifespan of a Celestial is longer, the better the aptitude, the greater the gap in the later stages, right?"
"Yes." Hui Qing nodded. "As long as the aptitude is good, even if your martial arts is not high now, you will become strong enough when the time is up. The lifespan of a Celestial is enough to make those with good aptitude stronger."
She looked at Chu Li. "Chu Li, your martial arts is strong enough, but your aptitude … is very ordinary."
Chu Li's body had been modified very well. With the Wind Speed Pill and the Giant Spirit Pill, in addition to various divine techniques, his body's strength had far exceeded the range of a normal person. It was almost the body of a Spirit Beast.
Even so, in Hui Qing's eyes, it was still ordinary. It was not amazing.
Xiao Shi was surprised. "Master, Chu Li's aptitude is not good enough?"
"In this world, he is considered the top, but compared to the descendants of Celestials, he is still very far away." Hui Qing said lightly.
Chu Li nodded thoughtfully.
He had already realized this. The martial arts of Liang Yueying and Nangong He were far inferior, but their aptitude was better than him.
He did not care before, but now that Hui Qing said it, he suddenly realized.
"Could it be that the descendants of Celestials are more aptitude than Chu Li?" Xiao Shi frowned.
"There are many geniuses in the Outland." Hui Qing nodded. "Moreover, the spiritual energy in the Outland is better than here. Their heart technique is also better than this world, so their cultivation progress will be faster. I can foresee that their achievements will be better than Chu Li, they just need time."
"Are there many masters in the Outland who are better than Chu Li?" Xiao Shi was unconvinced.
She felt that Chu Li was already the top master since he could kill Grand Asura. He could even do whatever he wanted in the Outland.
Hui Qing nodded. "There are many."
"The Grandmasters are so strong, how could they be defeated by an Asura State cultivator?" Siao Shi scoffed, unconvinced.
"Those top masters are all high and mighty, they value their lives very much, so they haven't made a move yet. Once they make a move, it will be a matter of life and death. Victory or defeat will only be decided in one battle, now is not the time, "Hui Qing said.
"How about entering the Taiyue Hall?" Xiao Shi asked.
Hui Qing shook her head. "The Taiyue Hall is too weak, it can only be a pawn. It's better not to enter."
Chu Li waved his hand and smiled. "There's no rush, take your time. I'll stay down there most of the time, I'll just go there occasionally."
He understood that entering the Rain Master's Hall was the only way. There was no future in other sects. No matter how strong his martial arts was, people only cared about his future. They felt that his potential had been exhausted, so they would not value him.
"Go see Leader Sun!" Xiao Shi scoffed. "You're really loyal!"
Chu Li looked at Xiao Qi embarrassedly.
Xiao Qi turned her gaze away from him.
Lu Yurong sighed. "This Leader Sun is really …"
Sun Mingyue had such a status and beauty, yet she sacrificed herself to save Chu Li. She abandoned the Holy Church of Light. She was not a qualified leader, nor was she a good master.
Love was too harmful. It made Sun Mingyue, who was known for being calm and wise, do such a thing.
"How is Sun Mingyue doing up there?" Xiao Shi asked.
Chu Li nodded. "Master and Grandmaster are up there, she's doing well."
"She's doing well up there. Without her, the Holy Church of Light will be unstable," Lu Yurong said.
Chu Li looked at her.
Xiao Qi said calmly, "Let's go and see."
