For the next few days, Chu Li cultivated quietly in the stone room. From the Seven Stars Observing Sky to the Nine Stars Observing Sky, all the way to the Twelve Stars Observing Sky. In a short period of time, he finally reached the Twelve Stars Observing Sky.
Unfortunately, after reaching Twelve Stars Heaven Glimpsing, he was no longer able to advance an inch. It was as if his soul force had reached the limit, and he needed even more soul force to be able to continue cultivating. And it looked like the soul force that he was so proud of could not support training to perfection, Thirty-Six Stars Heaven Glimpsing.
In order to strengthen his soul energy, he still needed the Brainwashing Technique.
However, he had his reservations about the Brainwashing Technique because once the Star Power entered his mind, it would unknowingly change his personality. This was not a change that Maha-Vairocana's Immobility Scripture could isolate, so he had to be careful.
He could already feel his coldness and indifference as if he did not care about anything in the world.
Even when he thought about Xiao Qi, Sun Mingyue, and Lu Yurong, he only felt a faint sense of longing. It was not as intense as a few days ago, and he did not have the urge to go back to see them and be together with them.
He sighed to himself. As the Spirit Tiger said, he could not cultivate the Flying Star Technique too much because it was not something that his body in this world could withstand. However, he could not resist the temptation of the Twenty-four Stars Observing Sky and the Thirty-six Stars Observing Sky.
In the morning, Chu Li got up and pushed open the stone door. He saw Qin Mengyun still outside, motionless like a jade statue. Her beautiful face was solemn.
When she saw Chu Li suddenly coming out, Qin Mengyun quickly turned to look at him. "Big Brother Wu!"
Chu Li smiled. "Thank you."
Qin Mengyun rolled her eyes. "Are you out of isolation now?"
Chu Li nodded.
"Big Brother Wu is getting more and more unpredictable!" Qin Mengyun sized Chu Li up.
A few days ago, Chu Li shone so brightly that one could not look at him directly and could only avoid him. Now, his aura was restrained and he looked like he did not cultivate martial arts. However, when one closed their eyes, they would realize that he had disappeared.
It was obvious that his cultivation level was more rounded and he could control it freely.
Chu Li smiled. "How many more days?"
"The Divine Demon Herb will be born in two days!" Qin Mengyun said. "Big Brother Wu, how are you going to snatch it?"
Chu Li replied, "I'm going to return to the sect to discuss this with the sect leader."
"I'm afraid that Sect Leader Zhao might not agree with you," Qin Mengyun said.
Chu Li asked, "Why?"
"I'm afraid that someone might take advantage of the situation and plot against Big Brother Wu." Qin Mengyun frowned and said, "Every time we snatch the Divine Demon Herb, it will be a bloody battle. Even if we don't see the Divine Demon Herb, many people will die."
Chu Li was deep in thought.
He had observed his future and didn't obtain any Divine Demon Herbs. Then, when he returned to the outer realm battlefield, Du Kelan caught up to him and killed him.
His current cultivation level hadn't increased much, but he had gained the ability to predict and avoid calamity. It was no different from the growth of his cultivation level, but prediction wasn't omnipotent. The key was still cultivation, so the Divine Demon Herb was more important.
Qin Mengyun said, "Once Big Brother Wu returns, he definitely won't be able to come out."
"Alright, then I won't be returning to the sect." Chu Li nodded.
Qin Mengyun said, "Then Big Brother Wu must be careful. If you use this appearance, others won't be able to recognize you."
Since Chu Li had the Earth Demonic Stone with him, coupled with his current cultivation level, it would be difficult for others to sense him or recognize him.
Chu Li nodded. "I'll take my leave then."
"I wish Brother Wu luck in obtaining the Godfiend Herb," said Qin Mengyun with a smile.
Chu Li smiled. "I'm just giving it a try. Man proposes, God disposes."
Among his Twelve Stars of Heaven Glimpse, he didn't manage to obtain the Godfiend Herb. Now that he could predict other people's whereabouts, it was just a flash of inspiration. Moreover, he had to get close to the person to predict it. He couldn't predict it if he wasn't in front of the person.
Unless he could cultivate Thirty-Six Stars of Heaven Glimpse, he wouldn't be able to directly predict where the Godfiend Herb was and whose hands it ended up in. He might even be able to cultivate Twenty-Four Stars of Heaven Glimpse.
Heaven Shaking Pavilion and Great Dream Sect could predict other people's fortuitous encounters. He guessed that it wasn't because their prediction technique was powerful, but it was more likely that they had the help of treasures like the Heaven and Earth Jade. Unfortunately, he didn't have such a treasure. Otherwise, with the help of treasures, he might be able to predict a fortuitous encounter with Twelve Stars of Heaven Glimpse and obtain the Godfiend Herb before others.
Qin Mengyun pursed her lips and smiled. "I think Big Brother Wu's luck is very good. There might be hope."
She felt that obtaining the Godfiend Herb depended on luck, and Wu Yuansi's luck was very good. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to inherit the Cloud Slashing Power. Such a lucky person might be able to obtain the Godfiend Herb.
However, it was just luck. She also understood that the possibility of obtaining the Godfiend Herb was extremely small.

Chu Li appeared in a city beside the Dancing Butterfly Sect and saw Liu Jianfei in a medium-sized courtyard.
Liu Jianfei and Yang Qingmeng were cultivating in the courtyard. When he saw Chu Li, Liu Jianfei sheathed his sword and smiled. "You haven't gone back yet?"
Chu Li shook his head. "I'll go back in a few days. When will Senior Liu return?"
The best way to ensure that he wouldn't be killed by Du Kelan on his way back was to travel with Liu Jianfei. The two of them could kill Du Kelan if they worked together. Turning danger into opportunity and danger into opportunity was the power of the prediction technique.
"Hmm, I don't want to go back for now." Liu Jianfei glanced at Yang Qingmeng and smiled gently. "It's rare for me to be with Qingmeng. I want to stay for a few more days before going back."
Chu Li said, "Senior Liu, I heard from Senior Sister Fu that the Peak Leader gave a strict order to not allow Senior Yang to enter the Grandmaster Realm. Why don't the two of you meet up at the foreign battlefield?"
He always had this question, but he never asked it.
Liu Jianfei sighed and shook his head.
Yang Qingmeng said, "I swore to never step out of the Heavenly Demonic Realm, not to enter the Grandmaster Realm. How could the Peak Leader not predict this!?"
Her voice was calm but cold. It was obvious that she still hated the Peak Leader.
Liu Jianfei patted her shoulder. "But it's all worth it. We can still be together."
Chu Li smiled. "Senior Liu, you won't stay here forever, will you?"
"Of course not." Liu Jianfei shook his head. "I'll visit every year but I can't stay here forever. If the Peak Leader finds out, he'll definitely cut me off!"
Chu Li nodded slowly. "This won't spread."
Liu Jianfei said, "I'll be staying for a while. What about you? What else are you doing here?"
He was curious why Chu Li did not leave immediately. There was still a risk of being exposed here. If he was seen through, he would not be able to leave even if he wanted to.
Chu Li said, "I'm worried that I'll go back alone and bump into Du Kelan. That's why I'm here to ask Senior Liu for help."
Liu Jianfei frowned. "This is troublesome! How about this, I'll send you back first and then come back. "
"How can I do that?" Chu Li smiled.
This was exactly what he wanted. If Liu Jianfei could be with him, Du Kelan would not dare to appear.
Liu Jianfei waved his hand. "It's a small matter. It's nothing."
He was extremely grateful to Chu Li. It was more than saving his life. Being able to meet Yang Qingmeng was no different from saving his life.
Chu Li fist saluted. "Then before I leave, I'll look for you again. We'll depart together."
"Alright." Liu Jianfei nodded.
Chu Li fist saluted Yang Qingmeng and left immediately. He did not want to disturb the couple's sweet time.
