It was obvious that Xiao Qi had also cultivated to become a deity.
It was impossible for Xiao Qi's aptitude to surpass Chu Li's. Chu Li was the only one in the world who could cultivate and become a god, so it was unlikely for Xiao Qi to do so.
Therefore, the result must be Chu Li's doing.
He speculated that Chu Li had forcefully elevated Xiao Qi's cultivation level using the Empowerment Technique, but no matter how he thought about it, he really could not figure out how he could achieve this step. It was no different from the Grandmaster's Apotheosis.
Chu Li smiled. "It's fate, and it's also Madam's opportunity."
Xiao Qi said, "Let's go back and talk."
Fa Yuan turned his head to look at the void. "I'm just afraid that His Majesty will be unhappy."
Xu An, who was dressed in a bright yellow robe, walked out of the void.
He smiled and pressed his palms together. "Greetings, Head Chief, Madam."
"Your Majesty." Xiao Qi smiled.
Compared to before, Xu An was much more composed and magnanimous. He placed his palms together and said: "Congratulations Lady."
Xiao Qi gently shook her head. "He's just lucky."
Xu Kong smiled and looked at Fa Yuan. "Master is here too."
Sparks flew as their gazes collided in midair.
Although the Titanium Temple and the Tempest Temple were both Buddhist sects, their relationship was not as good as the Tempest Temple's. Their paths of cultivation were completely different. Due to Chu Li, Fa Yuan and Xu An had a rather harmonious relationship and were able to join forces to deal with Asura.
However, even if they joined hands, they were still secretly competing with each other. They were all profound in Buddhism and had very little resentment, but they could not get rid of the intention to compete with each other.
Fa Yuan smiled and pressed his palms together. "Your Majesty."
Chu Li said, "Your Majesty, since Madam has become an Enlightened Master, she'll have to follow me to the Outland."
"Ai …" Xu An sighed softly and said, "If Empress Mother is alone …"
"Don't worry, she can come back anytime," Chu Li said. "She'll come back often."
"That's good." Xu An revealed a smile. "Furen must come back more often, lest mother is lonely."
"Her …" Xiao Qi gently shook her head.
She and Siao Shi's way of doing things were different. If the two of them were to work together to deal with government affairs, it would be hard to avoid disputes. It was just right for her to leave.
Chu Li said, "Madam, please follow His Majesty back to Fairy's Capital first."
"Yes." Xiao Qi nodded.
Xu An pressed his palms together and disappeared with Xiao Qi.
Fa Yuan's gaze stopped at the void where the two of them had disappeared for a while before he turned to look at Chu Li.
Chu Li smiled. "His Majesty has cultivated the Ten Lifetimes of Buddhahood Technique. He doesn't have any grudges with you, does he?"
"I have no personal grudges with His Majesty." Fa Yuan shook his head. "On the contrary, I admire His Majesty. Unfortunately …"
The two of them belonged to different temples, so they couldn't be intimate.
Chu Li nodded. It was understandable.
"Brother Chu, I think something is wrong." Fa Yuan raised his eyebrows and sat on a rock. He sighed and said, "This month, the Great Ji Dynasty is in chaos and the martial arts world is in turmoil."
"Unrest? Is that abnormal?" Chu Li was puzzled.
Fa Yuan said, "The grudges in the martial arts world are especially intense. You kill me, I kill you, and we all fall into the entanglement of grudges. Many Grandmasters have died, and this has indirectly weakened the strength of our Ji Dynasty's martial arts world."
"What about the other countries?" Chu Li asked.
Fa Yuan nodded. "That's true. That's why it's hard to determine which force did this. It looks like it was made by the Fu Dynasty. "
Chu Li thought for a moment and sighed. "Looks like the Heavenly Demon has also entered our world."
He used the Heavenly Star Insight Skill to predict and suddenly had a vague feeling.
"Heavenly Demon? Could it be the Heavenly Demonic Sect?" Fa Yuan was stunned.
Chu Li shook his head. "The Heavenly Demonic Sect and the Heavenly Demon are two different things. From what I know, the Outland has two major opponents, the Asura and the Heavenly Demon. The Asura has already entered our world, and it looks like the Heavenly Demon has also come to join in the fun."
"The Heavenly Demon …" Fa Yuan's handsome face darkened.
As a Buddhist monk and the head of the Tempest Temple, he naturally knew about the Heavenly Demon.
"It's shapeless and traceless," Fa Yuan said slowly. "It's ever-changing and traceless!"
Chu Li nodded slowly.
"Then we're in big trouble!" Fa Yuan said.
"Let the Stargazing Pavilion do it. The Stargazing Pavilion should be able to calculate the traces of the Heavenly Demon. Then, the Tempest Temple will chase after it. We still have to rely on Buddhism to deal with the Heavenly Demon, "Chu Li said.
"The temple does have a secret technique to defeat the Heavenly Demon. Unfortunately, it's not easy to cultivate and it requires Sarira." Fa Yuan frowned.
Chu Li said, "The Heavenly Demon is more dangerous than the Asura. We can't let it do as it pleases. Fa Yuan, it's all up to you!"
He knew how powerful the Heavenly Demonic Power was. It was ever-changing. If it was purely for destruction, the danger would be beyond imagination. The martial arts world would be in chaos, and a bloody storm would ensue.
Disguising as a disciple of one sect to assassinate another sect's disciples or higher-ups would inevitably lead to a war between the two sects. One Heavenly Demon could stir up a storm, let alone a group? Just thinking about it made one's scalp tingle.
"Brother Chu, what about you? You can't just stand by and watch, right?" Fa Yuan asked.
"I don't come back often, so I can't be counted on." Chu Li shook his head. "But I won't be idle when I come back … It's hard to guard against the Heavenly Demon. I have to be more careful in the future."
"Exactly." Fa Yuan nodded slowly.
As a Buddhist disciple, he was no stranger to the Heavenly Demon. There were many mentions of it in the Buddhist scriptures, and there were special techniques to defeat it.
Moreover, the Heavenly Demon and the Buddhist disciples were natural enemies. Once the Heavenly Demon descended, it would definitely cause trouble for the Buddhist disciples.
Chu Li looked at the bright moon and sighed. "What an eventful time!"
Fa Yuan's expression was solemn, and his brows were solemn.
The appearance of the Heavenly Demon would cause panic and loss of trust in the people. As a result, the relationship between people would become more and more tense, like a tightened bowstring that would eventually snap, and the world would fall into chaos.
"Sigh … Is it really the end of the Dharma?" Fa Yuan also looked up at the bright moon in the night sky.
Chu Li said, "There's always a way."
Fa Yuan shook his head. "It's very difficult. The demon-defeating technique is difficult to cultivate. The world is so big, but how many disciples does the Tempest Temple have? It's useless even if the demon-defeating technique is made public. Without the Sarira, the demon-defeating technique is useless. "
When he thought of this, even if he had a strong mind, he felt a little hopeless and lost.
Chu Li said, "If the Heavenly Demon was that powerful, they would've occupied the Outland long ago. There's always a way to defeat it!"
Fa Yuan frowned. "I really can't think of a way to restrain them."
Chu Li said, "Let Li Xinghe from Stargazing Pavilion help first. The Tempest Temple will take action and get rid of the Heavenly Demon now."
"That's the only way." Fa Yuan slowly nodded and said, "Brother Chu, the Outland technique might not be suitable for us. Are we really going to fall into hell?"
Chu Li smiled. "There's always a way."
Fa Yuan pressed his palms together and bowed solemnly.
The next morning, Chu Li brought Xiao Qi to the Outland.
Xiao Qi was curious about everything, but she had a cold personality and did not show it on the outside. She calmly followed Chu Li to the residence in Drizzle City.
Her task was to cultivate hard. Once an Enlightened Master reached the Outland, there would be a period of rapid advancement. If she missed this period, it would be extremely difficult to advance further and she would need time to accumulate.
The spiritual energy in Drizzle City was extremely rich, and the residence he stayed in was even more so, which was beneficial for Xiao Qi's cultivation.
Chu Li arrived at Rain Master City and headed to the Ninth Princess' Residence.
He wanted to find out how the Outland defended against the Heavenly Demon and see if it could be implemented in the lower realm.
