Chu Li looked at him in surprise. "Could it be that he's also from our sect?"
"No." Zhao Lingfeng shook his head. "He's a disciple of the Dream Faction."
Chu Li still looked at him in surprise.
Zhao Lingfeng said, "He was my friend when I was young, just like you and Murong Chou. Although we're not from the same faction, we're still close friends."
Chu Li closed fist saluted. "I didn't expect you to have friends in the Dream Faction."
"You're the only one allowed to make friends but I'm not allowed to have friends?" Zhao Lingfeng smiled.
Chu Li hesitated. "Do you know about the Heaven Shaking Tower?"
"Of course." Zhao Lingfeng said, "Don't worry. Not only can this treasure hide your aura, but it can also hide the secrets of the heavens. The Heaven Shaking Tower won't be able to predict your identity."
Chu Li sighed in relief and smiled. "What treasure is this, Sect Leader?"
"Earth Demon Stone." Zhao Lingfeng said, "Have you heard of it?"
Chu Li thought about it and shook his head.
Zhao Lingfeng said, "Not many people in the world know about this. It was given to me by my friend."
Chu Li sighed. "It seems like your friend is really something."
"It's not strange for the Dream Faction to have such a treasure. They're good at predicting. It's said to be from beyond the heavens."
As he spoke, he pointed to the sky above his head.
Chu Li was surprised. "Up to the heavens?"
Zhao Lingfeng nodded slowly. "I don't know which Heaven it is, but it doesn't belong to this realm. With this, you can safely stay in the Beyond Heavens Realm and live as you please without worrying about your identity being exposed."
Chu Li sighed. "The Beyond Heavens is good but it's not safe to stay there. I'll always worry about the Celestials seeing through me and killing me. It's better to come back here and sleep peacefully. With this, I'll be safe in the Beyond Heavens."
"That's right." Zhao Lingfeng smiled. "But even with the Earth Demon Stone, you still have to be careful. There are many people with special powers in the Beyond Heavens. You can't be too careless."
Chu Li nodded. "Then when should I go there?"
"Maybe after a while," Zhao Lingfeng said. "Train with me for a while and improve your martial arts to the next level."
Chu Li looked embarrassed. "Yes."
Zhao Lingfeng said, "You're quite talented, and there's still a lot of room for you to improve your martial arts to this point, so you can't slack off. The wonders of the Soaring Angel aren't just in its movement techniques and claw techniques, but also in its inner energy. You have to integrate the movement techniques of the Soaring Angel into your inner energy cultivation method, and your inner energy will be like your body. Only then will you be able to improve your martial arts to the next level."
Chu Li was slightly stunned, and his expression changed slightly.
Chu Li was not surprised by Zhao Lingfeng's statement. The Grandmasters thought that Chu Li's aptitude was ordinary, either because they had higher standards, or because they had a different focus. After all, the Heavenly Demonic Power was unique, and it was completely different from the inner strength heart technique of the Grandmasters.
The last two sentences of Zhao Lingfeng's words had moved him. As soon as he heard them, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and the subtleties of the Soaring Celestial Fiendgod Art flowed through his mind.
Chu Li immediately closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and began to channel.
The Soaring Angel quickly circulated in his body, and his inner energy was more than twice as fast as before. It really was like lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it had already completed two circulatory cycles. It was indescribably fast.
With such a rapid speed, not only did his inner energy recover, but the speed of his movement techniques and martial arts had also increased a lot. Although it was not twice as fast, it was still a significant improvement.
Just like that, the power of his martial arts would increase by a large margin, and it would also increase his cultivation level. The pure inner energy became more and more refined, like the gurgling of a clear spring, or like a rapid river, the sound of it echoing endlessly in his ears.
After an unknown amount of time, he felt that the increase of his inner energy had reached its limit, and he could not increase it any further. He slowly opened his eyes, and saw that his surroundings were empty. Zhao Lingfeng was no longer there.
He sat in the middle of the basilica, and there was not a single sound in the empty basilica. The bright moonlight fell on the inside of the basilica, as if a layer of snow had been sprinkled on the ground, making the surroundings even more quiet.
Chu Li squinted his eyes as he thought about the Soaring Divine Demon Technique. He shook his head and sighed. He had underestimated the Soaring Divine Demon Technique and Zhao Lingfeng. Zhao Lingfeng really did have wisdom and a deep understanding of martial arts that ordinary people did not have.
Listening to the words of a wise man was better than reading books for ten years, and a word of advice from a famous master was better than years of hard work.
If Zhao Lingfeng had not pointed it out, no matter how high Chu Li's comprehension was, he would not have been able to understand it, let alone cultivate the Soaring Angel to its ultimate state. He would not have been able to unleash a hundred percent of the Soaring Angel's power.
Sometimes, experience could not be comprehended, and a word of advice saved years of hard work. Chu Li could not help but be impressed, and the importance of a famous master could be seen.
When he thought about this, he thought about Xiao Qi and Sun Mingyue. They had a famous master at Taihao Peak, and their cultivation level must have improved greatly. He did not know if they could catch up to him, so he had to work hard too.
Lu Yurong and Xiao Shi had suffered enough in the lower realm. Sometimes, he felt guilty, but he could not interfere.
He collected his thoughts and left the basilica to look for Zhao Lingfeng.
With the Omniscient Mirror, he found him at the highest point of the mountain.
A bright moon hung in the sky, and Zhao Lingfeng sat on a big rock at the top of the mountain. He did not move, and the moonlight sprinkled on him like water. He looked lonely and cold, as if he was the only person in the world.
Chu Li thought about it and walked up to the mountain. He did not make a sound, but he did not touch the ground. It was as if his body was weightless, like he was floating in water. Soon, he reached the top of the mountain and went to Zhao Lingfeng's side.
"Sect Leader." He came in front of Zhao Lingfeng and gave him a fist salute.
"You don't have to thank me." Zhao Lingfeng opened his eyes, which shone brightly as if he could see through Chu Li's organs. He said gently, "Your comprehension is amazing, and I can see through it. It's rare."
Chu Li gave him a fist salute and did not say anything.
Zhao Lingfeng sighed and said, "I am somewhat regretting having such comprehension ability."
Chu Li asked, "What are you regretting, Sect Leader?"
"People like you will be delayed in the Grandmaster's Realm," Zhao Lingfeng said. "You should focus on your cultivation. That's the way to the light."
Chu Li smiled. "Going to the Grandmaster's Realm will be a different environment. It will help me understand martial arts."
"That's true," Zhao Lingfeng said slowly. "How about this, go to the Dream Faction and deliver a letter for me."
"Yes." Chu Li agreed without hesitation.
Zhao Lingfeng nodded in satisfaction. He was satisfied with Chu Li's straightforwardness. He said gently, "The Earth Demonic Stone belongs to the Dream Faction. If you take this letter, you will get the Earth Demonic Stone."
Chu Li smiled.
Zhao Lingfeng said, "The disciples of the Dream Faction are a little arrogant, so don't get into conflict with them. Otherwise, the Earth Demonic Stone will be unavoidable. If you can't get it, it will delay your plans, and you won't be able to go to the Town of Ten Thousand Swords."
Chu Li said slowly, "I understand."
"Your cultivation level has improved a lot. It will be difficult for you to improve even if you sit here and cultivate. You should leave tomorrow." Zhao Lingfeng said.
Chu Li nodded. "Sect Leader, are you cultivating here?"
