"Getting nothing is better than losing our lives. Brother, we're not young anymore, we should cherish our lives more!"
"If we really find the Multiform Demon Lord's cave, we can enjoy the rest of our lives with this technique!"
"It's not that easy. Don't be too greedy. We should have reported it long ago!"
"Brother, you're regretting it, right?"
"A little." The round-faced elder sighed, "If we had reported it earlier, there wouldn't be so many people!"
"Even if we reported it, we still need people to go in and explore. We still need them to go in!"
"These disciples are our painstaking efforts!"
"They're all unfilial disciples!" The skinny elder said coldly, "They're impetuous and can't be trained. Don't expect them to have any future. Once we leave, they'll disperse. None of them can hold up the sect!"
"Brother, if we get the Multiform Demon Lord's inheritance and let them practice it, do you think they'll become capable?"
"… Forget it."
Both of them were silent again.
The inheritance of the Multiform Demon Lord was a huge temptation to them. Otherwise, they wouldn't have hidden the news and lost more than twenty disciples.
Everyone thought of the Multiform Demon Lord as a man with a thousand faces and felt that he was full of changes. However, as protectors of the Imperial House, they knew more. The Multiform Demon Lord's greatest strength was his martial arts. He had taken the lives of at least five Grandmasters.
If they could practice his heart technique, they could laugh at the world.
"It's decided, I'll go in this time!" The skinny elder said in a deep voice.
The round-faced elder sighed and nodded slowly.
Chu Li sat quietly in the woodshed and activated the Omniscient Mirror to the extreme to see what they were thinking.
The Multiform Demon Lord that the Emperor was obsessed with was not an ordinary person. If he really got the inheritance of the Multiform Demon Lord, he could change his appearance. With his Omniscient Mirror, he could do a lot of things.

The next night, the snow had not melted. A bright moon hung in the sky.
The white snow reflected the moonlight, illuminating the surroundings clearly.
All the disciples of the Rising Sun Faction came to the foot of the Rising Sun Mountain and walked around it. They kept walking and patrolling.
They all widened their eyes and became more and more nervous as the midnight approached.
They all knew that the entrance would appear at midnight and disappear in a flash. If he missed it, he could only wait for next month.
This time, their Sect Leader had personally entered to save their Senior and Junior Brothers. This made them feel a little touched, but they were also a little worried. They did not know if those who had entered were still alive.
The fat old man and the skinny old man stood quietly on the glazed tiles of the main hall, looking at the Rising Sun Mountain opposite them. Under the moonlight, their purple robes fluttered.
Once the disciples found the entrance, they would shoot whistling arrows. They immediately rushed over and were just barely able to make it.
The two of them stood silently on the glazed roof tiles. They had said everything they needed to say.
"Bang!" An explosion came from afar, and a firework appeared in the sky.
"Let's go!" The two of them turned into two gusts of wind and headed in that direction.
Chu Li floated out of the woodshed and suddenly disappeared.
The two Rising Sun Sect disciples widened their eyes and looked up at the fireworks in the sky, hoping that their Sect Master would come over as soon as possible. Beside them, a piece of grayish-brown grass appeared in the middle of the lush forest. Completely different from its surroundings, it was abrupt and dazzling. This was the entrance!
From the corner of their eyes, they seemed to catch a glimpse of a black shadow that flashed by. Turning his head to take a look, there was nothing at all. It seemed to be an illusion.
They looked at each other, shook their heads, and ignored him.
Chu Li stepped into the formation. Suddenly, there was a vast expanse of whiteness in front of him, as if he was shrouded in fog.
Activating the Omniscient Mirror, he saw that he was at the foot of the mountain. The mountain in front of him was completely different from the mountains seen outside. At the foot of the mountain was grayish-brown grass and dense woods.
Further up, halfway up the mountain, it was a vast expanse of white snow. This was a snowy mountain that was twice as tall and twice as large as the Rising Sun Mountain.
Under the moonlight, the snowy mountain was like a silver mountain. Its entire body was snow-white and flawless, awe-inspiring.
There was no formation here, it was pure night fog.
He did not care if there was someone coming in behind him. He floated towards the top of the mountain, activating the Omniscient Mirror to see inside and outside of a five-mile radius.
He was glad that he was lucky. This formation only had one layer, unlike the formation he saw in Tai Hua Valley, which had layers upon layers of layers.
This formation only had the effect of concealing one's tracks. Outsiders could not enter the snowy mountain, but it left a chance for people to enter by chance.
This stance was very much like a fated person entering, and those who were not could not enter.
Thinking of this, he could not suppress his excitement, and his figure became faster and faster.
— —
He floated, and along the way, he met more than twenty Rising Sun Sect disciples. They gathered together and found a cave to squat. Some were cultivating, some were cooking, and some were sleeping. Looking at their rosy faces, they seemed to be living well.
Chu Li avoided them and continued to go up until he reached the top of the mountain.
It was cold at the top of the mountain, and the air was thin.
The cold wind blowing on his face was like a knife cutting his flesh, and a breath almost immediately froze him.
He had the Sentient Menace to protect his body, so he was not affected by the cold and heat. After he reached the top of the mountain, he climbed over the top of the mountain, and there was a cliff that looked like a vertical sword.
He glided down the cliff lightly. After twenty meters, he punched out fiercely, and his figure stopped.
His fist broke through a thick layer of snow, and suddenly, a cave entrance was revealed. He floated into it, and inside was a rather spacious cave.
The cave was as tall as a person, and the surrounding walls were made of ice.
Inside the cave, there was a gentle breeze blowing, and he inexplicably shivered.
This breeze was a bit colder than the wind at the top of the mountain outside. If it was not for the circulation of his inner energy, his flesh and blood would not be able to withstand this cold wind, and he would be frozen.
This wind was obviously strange. He looked through the Omniscient Mirror, and saw that the wind entered from the opposite stone wall, circled a few times, and blew here. It weakened the wind, but it became even colder.
He ignored this unusually cold wind, and with the protection of the Sentient Menace, coupled with his thick inner energy, he could withstand it for a while.
He looked up at the middle-aged man sitting cross-legged on the ice couch.
This middle-aged man was handsome, and his face was like jade. He must have been a handsome man when he was young. He sat motionless on the crystal clear ice couch, as if he was meditating.
This person seemed to be alive, but he was already dead.
The wind here was extremely strange, so the middle-aged man's flesh did not rot, and looked the same as when he was alive.
The Omniscient Mirror scanned every inch of the place.
In the cave, there was an ice couch, an ice table, two bowls, an iron pot, and some unspoiled food and spices piled in the corner. This was the place to live.
He was a little disappointed. There were no books, and there were no formations. It seemed that the person in front of him was not a formation master, and might have been set up by someone else.
His gaze finally fell on a gap between the ice, and there was a crystal clear waist tag. It was the size of a palm, and it was about the same size as the white jade tag on his waist.
This waist tag was crystal clear, and it blended with the ice. If it was not for the Omniscient Mirror, he would have to remove all the ice to find it.
He took out the Modesty Sword, and lightly stabbed the waist tag, like a knife cutting through tofu, and flicked it.
The waist tag flew out, and fell into his hand.
"Boom …" His vision suddenly went black, and he entered the endless void.
It was like the first light of dawn, blue and slightly bright. In the void sat a giant that was emitting a soft light, and his face was kind, and his eyes were compassionate, looking down at him.
When his eyes met this compassionate gaze, Chu Li's mind was shocked again. Countless scenes appeared in his mind, as if he was looking at flowers on horseback.
He suddenly became a soldier, fighting on the battlefield, and in the end, his arm was cut off, and he died with a knife through his heart. Suddenly, he became a martial arts master, fighting with others, and in the end, he was defeated and died. Suddenly, he became an old man, not knowing any martial arts, old and weak, and died of illness.
It felt like a long time, but it also felt like it was only a moment. Chu Li was refreshed, and he woke up. In front of him was still the soft light giant.
