Sure enough, it was just as he expected. With the power to surpass all living beings, it would be much easier to become a Heavenly Deity.
Once Xiao Qi had successfully cultivated the Sword of Oblivion, he would be able to help her become an Enlightened Master.
However, her Sword of Indifference was still lacking and needed to be tempered for a while more.
"What about Second Eldest Sister …?" Xiao Qi turned to look at Chu Li with a hesitant expression.
Chu Li smiled. "Let her cultivate the Sword of Indifference too?"
"And Lu Yurong," Xiao Qi said.
Chu Li looked at her in surprise.
Xiao Qi replied, "I'm not testing you."
Chu Li nodded lightly and said, "Alright then, pass it on to them!"
He couldn't teach it to just anyone. It wasn't that he didn't want to, it was that he couldn't. There was a limit to how he could teach it. If the other party was hostile towards him and couldn't completely open their hearts and trust him without any hesitation, he wouldn't be able to pull their spirit into the void of his mind.
Otherwise, the might of this imparting technique would be too strong. When fighting against an enemy, it would be as easy as flipping one's hand to kill them. This was an imparting technique, not a killing technique.
He made a trip to the Great Light Peak to see how Li Meng was doing.
Based on what Xiao Qi had told him, Li Meng's position as the leader of the Great Light Peak was completely under her control.
Li Meng could be considered to have been forced to come out. Under the heavy pressure, her wisdom rapidly increased. Although she was still inferior to Sun Mingyue, she could already be considered a wise bishop. The Holy Church of Light's momentum did not diminish. With Chu Li's lingering influence, the other Enlightened Masters did not dare to offend the Holy Church of Light.
At dawn, he suddenly appeared in the [Light Palace].
Li Meng's jade-like face was taut as she coldly reprimanded an old man with white eyebrows and beard. She wasn't polite at all. The old man lowered his head so much that it almost touched the ground. His face was like a red date, and he was extremely ashamed.
The old man did not sense Chu Li's sudden appearance, but Li Meng sensed Chu Li's presence and quickly turned her head to look.
Chu Li smiled and shook his head, then suddenly disappeared again.
Li Meng was no longer in the mood to reprimand the old man. She said coldly, "If there's a next time, you'll stay at the peak of Great Light Peak and don't even think about leaving the mountain."
"Yes, Sect Leader," the old man said in a low voice.
"Go!" Li Meng waved her hand.
The old man bowed deeply, then turned around and left.
Li Meng suddenly disappeared and reappeared in the courtyard where Sun Mingyue was. She saw Chu Li standing in the gazebo with his hands behind his back.
"Master's Junior!" Li Meng rushed over like a swallow returning to its nest. She stopped in front of Chu Li with a fragrant breeze.
Chu Li laughed. "How impressive!"
"Humph, these fellows are taking advantage of their seniority and doing things carelessly. I'll give them a good scolding." Li Meng snorted and said, "When Master was here, none of them dared to be perfunctory. But now that Master is gone, they think that I'm young and easy to bully."
Chu Li nodded and said, "Your master has accumulated his power over the years, so they won't dare to take a breather. After all, your foundation is still shallow, so don't be anxious."
"I'm not as capable as my master. There's no need to get angry. I'll just give them a cold look, and they'll be obedient." Li Meng shook her head and said, "Is it alright if my master is up there?"
Chu Li sat down, and Li Meng reached out to make tea.
"After she entered the Great Light Surpassing State, she had a deep understanding of the Great Light Scripture. She advanced by leaps and bounds and became a Supreme Celestial Being in one fell swoop. She's the fastest person to advance in the Great Light Surpassing State in a thousand years. Her future is limitless," Chu Li said with a smile.
Li Meng served a cup of tea and sighed. "As expected of my master."
She never thought that she could surpass her master. Firstly, she was not talented enough, and secondly, she was not wise enough.
Chu Li took out a thin booklet and handed it to her. "This is the copy of your master's understanding of the Great Light Scripture."
This was secretly given to him by Sun Mingyue. She knew that his identity was different, so it was not a big deal to bring this booklet with him. The Outland could not interfere.
Li Meng's spirit was lifted, and she hurriedly received it with both hands. "Thank you, Master's Junior!"
She knew the rules. She could not bring martial arts from the Outland, and this kind of secret booklet was not allowed either.
Chu Li waved his hand. "You have to hold on a little longer. Find a disciple and teach her well. Don't be like your master. She's a little upset that she did not look for you earlier and did not have the chance to teach you for a few more years."
"… Yes." Li Meng put away the booklet and nodded lightly. Her eyes were slightly red, and she could not suppress the surging childlike admiration and longing.
Chu Li reached out and patted her. "Sixty years passed by in the blink of an eye. You'll only be able to face her after you're done here."
"Yes." Li Meng nodded vigorously.
"Is there anything that needs my help?" Chu Li asked.
Li Meng shook her head. "Master's Junior, you underestimate me. I can handle it."
"That's good. I'll go now," Chu Li said. "Do you have any message for your master?"
"Don't worry, Master. I'll work hard and the Holy Church of Light will become stronger day by day," Li Meng said.
Chu Li smiled and nodded. He finished the tea in one gulp and waved his hand before disappearing.
He could have passed on the Sword of Indifference to her, but after some thought, he realized that her foundation was still the Great Light Scripture. She would improve by leaps and bounds if she understood the experience that Sun Mingyue had passed on to her. If he passed on the Sword of Indifference to her now, it would distract her, which would not be beneficial for her to cultivate the Great Light Scripture.

Chu Li and Zhou Dunli sat in the basilica of Goddess Attraction Mountain.
The atmosphere in the basilica was solemn, and both of them looked serious.
Zhou Dunli's complexion was terrible. It was obvious that he had yet to recover from his injuries. He had already taken the spirit pill that Chu Li brought. It was a gift from Xue Luoyu, so it was naturally an extremely powerful spirit medicine.
"Chu Li, don't rush the reconstruction of Goddess Attraction Mountain," Zhou Dunli said slowly.
As he spoke, his face became rosier. The spirit pill's magical effects were taking effect.
Chu Li nodded slowly. "Master, I've already entered the Front Department of the Rain Master Palace. I've asked around and found out that Seven Constellation Palace is only our first enemy. There's an extremely powerful force behind them."
Zhou Dunli sighed. "Goddess Attraction Mountain has the Golden Dragon guarding it, so we can defend the Divine Gate. Unfortunately, we can't rely on external forces, so it's inevitable that we've fallen to this state."
Chu Li said, "According to the information I've received, it'll be very difficult to rebuild the Divine Gate."
Zhou Dunli sighed in relief. "That's good news."
Chu Li sighed. "I'll definitely avenge the destruction of my sect. Master and the elders, cultivate well on Goddess Attraction Mountain. There'll be a day when it'll be rebuilt."
He did not dare to say when he could rebuild Goddess Attraction Mountain. He had too many enemies. Once he rebuilt Goddess Attraction Mountain, it would be like setting up a target. Only when he reached a certain level and was able to wield power would it be the time to rebuild it.
However, he did not know how long it would take. It was difficult to do things in the Outland, so he had not been able to open up a new situation.
"There's no rush." Zhou Dunli said, "All nine levels of the Outland are powerful forces. You must be careful. As long as you're here, there's hope for Goddess Attraction Mountain."
"Yes." Chu Li nodded slowly.
Zhou Dunli muttered, "There's still a Golden Dragon in the Outland …"
Chu Li frowned. "It'll still protect Goddess Attraction Mountain?"
"You can go take a look at it," Zhou Dunli said. "Maybe it's already healed … This is the Dragon Seal."
He took out a dragon-shaped jade pendant. It was about the length of an index finger and looked exquisite.
Chu Li was confused.
Zhou Dunli sighed. "Return the Dragon Seal to it and give it freedom."
Chu Li was surprised.
Zhou Dunli said, "Back then, a grandmaster saved that Golden Dragon, so it gifted the grandmaster this Dragon Seal and promised to protect Goddess Attraction Mountain for two thousand years. Unfortunately, external forces can't be borrowed. Return the Dragon Seal and it won't need to protect for the remaining one thousand years."
