Chu Li stood in the cave and paced around with his hands behind his back as he pondered.
Logically speaking, the middle-aged man should have a treasure blade on his knees or he would not have treasured it so much. If this middle-aged man was the Hu Haiya that he was looking for, then it should be the Heavenly Demon Blade.
Of course, it was also possible that it was not Hu Haiya. This mountain was too majestic, much more majestic than the mountains of the Flying Heaven School, the Great Dream School, and the Dancing Butterfly School. In fact, only the three mountains combined could compare to this mountain.
Therefore, the Great Dream Sect could not find the cave because this mountain was too big.
It was too much of a coincidence for two people to live in seclusion on a mountain. However, the wonders of the world were often unexpected. It was not impossible for such coincidences to happen. They might even know each other or have a close relationship.
He smiled and shook his head. His mood was inexplicably relaxed and happy. He felt that his luck was really good. The heavens really did not give up on him. When he needed the Sky Demon Blade, he immediately found the Sky Demon Blade. He had nothing to say about his luck and could only feel grateful.
He suddenly flashed and appeared in the cave, ignoring the mountain rocks.
Standing beside the jade-green pool, Chu Li carefully looked at it and took a light breath. It was full of spiritual energy. The pores on his body opened up and greedily absorbed the refreshing and fragrant spiritual energy.
It was like a person who had been drinking water touched sweet fruit juice and could not resist it.
He was not in a hurry to take this strange item. Instead, he turned to the middle-aged man who was sitting beside the pool.
The middle-aged man sat still, his body shrouded in a strange aura. Chu Li felt a sense of danger the moment he got close to him. The aura around the middle-aged man was stern and cold, as if he had merged with the heavens and earth. Touching him was akin to going against the heavens and earth.
Chu Li frowned.
The middle-aged man's aura was so strong but it covered an extremely narrow area. He did not notice it when he used the Omniscient Mirror from afar and only felt the danger when he got closer.
This way, others would not be able to detect him through this sense of danger. Such a powerful protective force was left behind by the middle-aged man after his death. It was like the remains of an Enlightened Master.
He inexplicably thought of ascension.
This middle-aged man did not have anything else on him. He did not have any treasures on him. The aura came from his body and was connected to heaven and earth. It was obvious that he had ascended and left behind his remains. He was even more convinced that this was Hu Haiya.
It was no wonder that no news about Hu Haiya had spread. It turned out that he had already ascended. Chu Li shook his head and sighed, feeling even more impressed.
If it was a disciple of a top-notch sect like the Taihao Peak or the Great Dream Sect, it would be admirable, but it would not be that rare. However, Hu Haiya was different. He came from such a weak sect, yet he was able to ascend through luck and wisdom.
He didn't dare to get any closer. After thinking for a while, he suddenly flicked his finger, and the Meteor Finger shot towards that long saber.
"Bang!" An invisible force appeared out of thin air, and he crashed straight into the wall behind him, embedding a foot into it.
His entire body was in excruciating pain, as if he had been run over by a millstone. There was not a single part of his body that wasn't in pain, and his internal organs were vaguely injured. Fortunately, there was the Lake of Jade not far away from him, and the spiritual energy was oppressive.
He manipulated the spiritual energy to enter his body, and his body instantly felt lighter. His injuries were almost completely healed in an instant. It was really strange.
He grew to like this pool of jade water more and more. His courage grew as he looked at the long saber again.
Hu Haiya's protective energy barrier was strange. It was as if it had its own intelligence. It could locate Chu Li's finger energy and attack him from there. Chu Li was already on guard against it, yet Hu Haiya still managed to hit him.
The long saber was only a few meters away from him, but he couldn't get it.
Chu Li's mind raced.
He had to first get rid of the protective energy barrier to get the long saber. If he couldn't get rid of the protective energy barrier, it would be impossible for him to take advantage of the situation.
He tried a few more methods.
He threw a pebble, but it turned into powder. He threw a flying blade, but it was immediately deflected. He took a long stick and slowly approached it. The wooden stick shattered, and a strong force even traveled along the stick to him. Fortunately, he let go in time.
He then tried to lift a huge rock and throw it at the man.
"Bang!" The huge rock scattered in all directions, but the middle-aged man still stood firm.
Chu Li frowned as he thought about it. He suddenly disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was holding two black hammers in his hands. These two hammers were forged from meteorites, and they were unusually heavy. Even a normal martial arts master would not be able to lift them.
Chu Li took a deep breath and threw the two meteorite hammers. They turned into two gusts of wind, and whistled through the air. However, they did not hit Hu Haiya, but brushed past his body, missing him by a few millimeters.
He respected Hu Haiya very much, and did not want to destroy his shell. He only wanted to take the Heavenly Demonic Blade.
Amidst the whistling sound, the Meteor Point energy shot toward the long saber from another direction.
"Bang bang!" Two muffled sounds were heard, and the two meteorite hammers bounced back and shot toward Chu Li.
Chu Li had already predicted this, so he moved his body lightly to avoid it. However, he realized that the two meteorite hammers had also changed direction and were chasing after him.
"Bang bang!" Chu Li's two punches sent the meteorite hammers flying, but he was also sent flying.
The Meteor Point energy had already hit the long saber, but it disappeared without a sound.
The protective energy barrier was too strong, and under such circumstances, he could not break through it, so he could not take out the long saber.
After he was hit by the meteorite hammers, his internal organs were heavily injured again, and this time, it was much worse than the previous time. The spiritual energy from the Emerald Pond surged, and he quickly recovered from his injuries.
Chu Li frowned, and suddenly looked outside the cave.
The two elders gently approached him, and came to the cave that he had arrived at before. They looked left and right, and carefully searched, but did not find any signs of Chu Li searching. The two looked at each other, and guessed that Chu Li had not found this place.
Thus, the two of them hid on the other peak, and looked over here.
Chu Li shook his head and sighed. This Cheng Yuan, as a sect leader, did not have the demeanor of a sect leader. He must have wanted to take advantage of the situation. Even if he did not want to take advantage of the situation, he still wanted to know the news. It could be said that this was the usual method of the Great Dream Sect.
These two people were a little troublesome. Although they could not find him, if he caused too much of a commotion, he would definitely find out. The two elders' cultivation levels were very shocking, and they were definitely not ordinary masters.
It was obvious that ordinary masters would not be able to follow him.
He turned his head and looked at Hu Haiya, who was sitting cross-legged, and frowned. His mind turned quickly, and he continued to search for a solution.
The Flying Star Technique began to derive, but unfortunately, it was a mess. He could not derive a single trace of Hu Haiya in front of him. His body was connected to heaven and earth, and it directly covered the mysteries of heaven, so he could not derive anything.
After a while, he reached out his hand and slowly approached, and then felt a faint power. Before he could completely touch it, he felt an infinite power surging, like a river flowing backwards.
"Bam!" With a muffled sound, he flew backward again.
He kept changing the force in the air. Even if he was injured, he could not hit the stone wall. Although the cave was in the middle of the mountain, and even if there was a sound, it would be difficult for it to travel out, he had no other choice.
"Pfft!" He spat out a mouthful of blood in the air, and fell limply to the ground. Then, the spiritual energy of the Jade Pool surged, and his body was repaired.
He let out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was no loud sound.
Standing in front of Hu Haiya with a frown, Chu Li felt like he had exhausted all his tricks, and did not know where to start.
Hu Haiya's Vital Energy Barrier was too powerful, and neither hard nor soft tactics could work.
A thought flashed in his mind, and he suddenly took out the Sky Setting Orb, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
