Chu Li hesitated and shook his head. "The Rain Master Hall doesn't recruit people from the Lower Realm. How can I enter?"
"The Rain Master Hall doesn't recruit people who have ascended. You're not ascended so you can enter." Song Chengzhi smiled. "Don't worry. As long as I agree to let you in, you'll be a member of the White Dew Clan and also a member of the Rain Master Hall. Others can't say anything and they can't chase you away!"
Chu Li said, "I was once recruited by the Tai Yue Palace. They said that as long as I enter the Tai Yue Palace, my treasured swords, spirit pills, and even the Star Stones are ordinary items. They're not worth mentioning."
"Haha, don't listen to the nonsense of the Tai Yue Palace!" Song Chengzhi shook his head. "They're really useless. They dare to say anything in order to recruit people. Your Imperial Sky Sword is one of the nine swords in the City of Ten Thousand Swords. There aren't many treasured swords better than it. As for spirit pills, they have many but they're all healing items. We don't need them. There's also the Star Stone. It's not an ordinary item."
Chu Li said, "The Star Stone is not ordinary?"
"The best use of the Star Stone is to conceal the heavenly secrets and calm the mind. It can assist in cultivation. It's a treasure. It's also not a product of the Outland. It's produced by falling meteorites." Song Chengzhi scoffed. "There are many in the Outland but it's too exaggerated to say that it's ordinary. Don't listen to the nonsense of the Tai Yue Palace. They're trying to trick you into entering."
Chu Li nodded. "No wonder the Star Stone is so precious. It's not from the Outland."
"No one knows where it comes from. The current Star Stones are all obtained from falling meteorites. You might encounter one if you're lucky but it's not just luck. Usually, it's obtained through competition." Song Chengzhi said, "Once a meteor streaks across the sky, there will be people tracking it. Moreover, there will be experts who are proficient in the art of divination to deduce its location. From there, they will track where it landed and snatch it back. When it comes to actual snatching, our Hall of Rain Masters is one of the Nine Divisions. We have a great advantage. The stronger the sect, the more Star Stones they have.
Chu Li said, "Luckily I didn't believe it or I would've really become a member of the Tai Yue Palace."
"Taiyue Hall's strength is insignificant." Song Chengzhi waved his hand and said, "Unlike our Rain Master Hall, you won't regret joining us!"
Chu Li hesitated again.
His face suddenly turned pale, as if his injuries had worsened.
"That's settled then!" Song Chengzhi waved his hand and said, "Let's go, follow me back to the hall to heal!"
As he spoke, he went forward to help Chu Li up and glided away.
Chu Li wanted to struggle but to no avail. He looked at Song Chengzhi helplessly. "Clan Leader Song …"
"This is to repay me for saving your life!" Song Chengzhi said, "Don't you want to repay me?"
Chu Li smiled bitterly. "There are many ways to repay your kindness. Why do you have to do this?"
"This is the best way." Song Chengzhi said, "I'm lacking experts right now. You came at the right time!"
"Sigh …" Chu Li shook his head helplessly.
Song Chengzhi said: "You were injured by the Monarch Descends Sword, right?"
"Yes." Chu Li nodded.
He felt a strange sword energy flowing in his body and he couldn't get rid of it. Not only could the Heaven Killing Sword Technique not get rid of it, it strengthened it instead. It was really strange. The Monarch Descends Sword was really strange.
Song Chengzhi's feet were gliding and the scenery in front of Chu Li flew past him. Song Chengzhi's cultivation level had reached the level of Supreme Class. He could be considered a top-notch master.
Song Chengzhi spoke as he hurried, "You cultivate the Heaven Killing Sword Technique. What you fear the most is the Monarch Descends Sword. If someone else gets hit by the Monarch Descends Sword, they might be injured thirty percent. You will be injured sixty percent. Your injuries are very troublesome."
Chu Li raised his eyebrows.
Song Chengzhi didn't stop walking and he didn't stop talking. "Once the nine swords of the City of Ten Thousand Swords are gathered, their power will be earth-shattering. The City of Ten Thousand Swords will be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the nine divisions. It's a pity that we haven't had the Heaven Killing Sword all these years … These nine swords are very mysterious. They mutually restrain each other. The Monarch Descends Sword counters the Heaven Killing Sword. It's not water and fire, it's a mouse and a cat. it can't resist at all."
Chu Li frowned. "Then how can I heal my injuries?"
Song Chengzhi said, "We need to find someone to help. When we return to the clan, we need to find a few people to cure your injuries. If you rely on yourself, it will get worse and worse. In the end, you will die from your injuries."
Chu Li nodded slowly. His face was solemn.
"Even if you join the White Dew Clan, you need to be careful of the City of Ten Thousand Swords. They won't be satisfied." Song Chengzhi laughed. "This time, you've stepped on their tail. They will fight with their lives."
Chu Li said, "Thank you, Clan Leader."
"Haha, it's good that you understand my painstaking efforts." Song Chengzhi smiled. "This is what I think. Instead of dying in the hands of the City of Ten Thousand Swords, I might as well enter the White Dew Clan and kill more Asuras."
Chu Li said, "Actually, I can hide in the Lower Realm."
"Because even if you return to the Lower Realm, they will still descend to kill you." Song Chengzhi said.
Chu Li smiled. "That's useless. They can't bring back the Heaven Killing Sword."
Celestials could descend to the Lower Realm but they could only return through ascension. Their bodies couldn't return and they couldn't bring back the Heaven Killing Sword.
"Do you think you're the only one who cultivated to become an Enlightened Master?" Song Chengzhi laughed and shook his head. "There are many who cultivated to become Enlightened Masters in the City of Ten Thousand Swords. After paying a sufficient price, they can return to the Lower Realm and bring back the Heaven Killing Sword."
Chu Li frowned and remained silent.
The longest lifespan of a Celestial was close to ten thousand years. The apotheosis began a thousand years ago. Logically speaking, there were many who cultivated to become Enlightened Masters in the Outland. There might even be many of them. But why didn't they return to their original world?
There must be a restriction that prevented these Enlightened Masters from returning.
He asked, "What's the price?"
"Death." Song Chengzhi said, "Enlightened Masters are insignificant in front of the power of Heaven and Earth. Their lifespan exceeds the limit of the Lower Realm's lifespan. Once they enter the Lower Realm, their lifespan will be reduced. They can only be freed by giving up their bodies and ascending. They can recover when they return to the Outland. … Ordinary Celestials must give up their bodies to enter the Divine Gate. Only by cultivating to become Enlightened Masters can they enter the Divine Gate. However, if these Enlightened Masters from the Lower Realm don't give up their bodies and return to the Outland, they won't be able to survive. This is the power of Heaven and Earth."
Chu Li frowned. It seemed like Goddess Attraction Mountain was an exception.
"Goddess Attraction Mountain made an exception because of a mystical item. This mystical item is in the hands of the Golden Dragon. No one can take it away." Song Chengzhi shook his head. "But if you stay in White Dew City, no matter how savage the City of Ten Thousand Swords is, they won't dare to enter White Dew City to assassinate you. Don't worry."
Chu Li nodded slowly.
He had been pretending to be unwilling, but in fact, he was secretly laughing. At least his plan did not go to waste.
It was true that he was being hunted by the City of Ten Thousand Swords, but he had gotten injured on purpose. Moreover, he had calculated Song Chengzhi's whereabouts and appeared in the forest outside the Rain Master's Hall to fight Hu Zonghua and the others.
If Song Chengzhi was in danger and he stepped in to save him, Song Chengzhi would definitely be wary of him. Song Chengzhi would not help him for no reason, he must have a motive. Now that Song Chengzhi had stepped in to help, he must also have a motive.
Song Chengzhi had lost a lot of manpower and needed to replenish manpower to fight the Asuras in the Outland.
