Chu Li pondered. "Usually, when one arcane realm opens, the other arcane realms open too, right?"
"When one arcane realm opens, the other arcane realms will follow suit." Cheng Yuan nodded slowly and said, "However, they won't open at the same time. There's a sequence. However, the difference between the two is usually more than a decade or even decades. That's a world of difference."
Chu Li smiled. "Back then, the Forbidden Heaven Sect unified the Heavenly Demonic Realm because they were the first to open the arcane realm?"
Cheng Yuan squinted his bloodshot eyes. A glint flashed across his eyes before he smiled and shook his head. "I didn't expect you to know about this too. Very few people know about the Forbidden Heaven Sect."
Chu Li said, "I also know that Sect Leader Cheng is ambitious and wants to unify the world. He instigated our relationship with the Heaven Devouring Sect and Izumo Sect and wanted to kill our disciples to frame the Heaven Devouring Sect!"
"Sigh …" Cheng Yuan shook his head. "My subordinates acted on their own and have been punished by me!"
Chu Li smiled faintly. "If I didn't point it out, Sect Leader Cheng wouldn't have mentioned it, right?"
"It's rare to be muddle-headed." Cheng Yuan smiled. "But I'll compensate the Flying Heaven Sect. It's best to keep it a secret."
Chu Li shook his head. "Looks like the Sky Wind Sect is going to become another Forbidden Heaven Sect. Sect Leader Cheng's dream of unifying the world is over, right?"
"Yes …" Cheng Yuan sighed and shook his head helplessly. "Man proposes but God disposes. There's nothing I can do!"
He had painstakingly worked hard for so many years, but it was suddenly broken by the Sky Wind Sect's arcane realm. The Great Dream Sect could not even withstand a single blow from these old demons.
Thinking about this, he sighed to himself and was filled with despair.
However, in front of Lu Qingxue, he did not want to sigh. He had to remain firm.
Chu Li said, "Is there no way to stop the Sky Wind Sect?"
The Sky Wind Sect was powerful and the first to be destroyed was the Flying Heaven Sect. He could stop them but the disciples could not. As the sect leader, he was responsible and could only fight the Sky Wind Sect head-on.
"I'm at my wit's end." Cheng Yuan frowned. "These old demons are very stubborn. Once they've identified their target, it's useless to interfere. The first target is the Dancing Butterfly Sect, the second is the Flying Heaven Sect, and the next target is the Great Dream Sect!"
Chu Li stood up and paced with his hands behind his back.
Lu Qingxue lightly floated into the hall and sighed: "The disciples can only move, I will stay here."
"Why throw away your life?" Cheng Yuan frowned and said with dissatisfaction, "Fighting them head-on is courting death. If we can avoid them, we should avoid them. Who knows, the Dancing Butterfly Sect might be able to open the Mystic Realm in the future!"
Lu Qingxue gently shook her head.
Cheng Yuan said anxiously, "Do you like to die that much?!"
"Life or death is none of your business!" Lu Qingxue glanced at him coldly.
"You —!" Cheng Yuan glared at her.
Chu Li coughed softly and said, "Senior Lu, Faction Leader Cheng's words make sense. We can't defend this place. If Senior Lu doesn't have to worry, let me guard this place. I want to meet the old demons of the Sky Wind Sect!"
"You can't use your Tianma Blade lightly" Lu Qingxue said: "It will cause a backlash, and even gods and demons won't be able to save you!"
Chu Li replied, "I know."
Lu Qingxue said no more. As the leader of a sect, Wu Yuansi had a firm mind. He already knew about the backlash, so there was no need for her to say anything more.
"Heh heh …" Cold laughter suddenly rang out, coming from all directions, coming from everywhere.
Chu Li raised his voice and shouted, "I'm Wu Yuansi from the Flying Heaven Sect. If you want to die, come here!"
He appeared above the basilica in a flash and stood on the dragon's spine of the basilica. His white robe fluttered in the wind. At this time, the setting sun dyed his white robe red, turning it into the color of blood.
Chu Li stood with his hands behind his back and glanced at the eight grey-robed elders standing in the void. He said calmly, "You want to unify the Heavenly Demonic Realm?"
"You're Wu Yuansi, the one who injured Lil Eight?" A tall and burly elder with a body like an iron tower shouted.
His snow-white hair seemed to be condensed from silver as it shone with silver light. His face was rosy without a single wrinkle. His rosy cheeks were as white as a baby's, and his eyes were as deep and clear as gemstones as he calmly looked at Chu Li.
He had a dignified appearance and a righteous expression.
Chu Li smiled. "I haven't asked for your names yet."
"It's been so long that I've forgotten my own name." The tall elder shook his head and sighed. "Let's call you Zheng Da."
"Zheng Da …" Chu Li shook his head. "It can't be Zheng Da, Zheng Er, all the way to Zheng Ba, right?"
"That's right." Zheng Da nodded. "Remember our names. When we report our names in the Netherworld Manor, we'll be ghosts with a clear conscience. Then, let's make our move!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other seven people flashed and rushed toward Chu Li, instantly surrounding him.
Chu Li landed on the ground.
Zheng Da and the others followed suit and immediately felt their bodies become sluggish. Boundless power surged from the soles of their feet, distorting the void and combining the top and bottom. Their bodies could not move, and their spiritual energy was gone. It was difficult to breathe. It was like a fish being scooped out of the water and placed in a box.
They did not take it to heart. No matter how strong Chu Li was, he could not be stronger than them. The restraint was just a joke, and he could easily break it.
Moreover, they had already set up a formation, but it was a formation that attacked one's mind. There was no way to avoid it, and Wu Yuansi would definitely faint.
Chu Li slowly pulled out his blade.
"Be careful of the Sky Demon Blade!" Zheng Ba hissed.
He had personally experienced the power of this blade. It was traceless, and their secret skill could not feel it. By the time they saw the blade, it had already hit them. It was truly unpredictable.
The only way to restrain the Sky Demon Blade was to restrain him in advance so that he could not use the Sky Demon Blade.
Unfortunately, their powerful formation was restrained by him, and they could not restrain him in advance. They could only watch helplessly as he used the Sky Demon Blade.
"Bang!" With a muffled sound, the Sky Demon Blade slashed at Zheng Da. An invisible force blocked in front of the blade, blocking the force of the blade.
Chu Li whistled softly. The blade suddenly lit up, and then it slashed down without any hindrance.
Zheng Da wanted to avoid it, but he found that the restraint on his body could not be resisted. He actually could not break free, and his eyes widened as he watched the long blade cut off his right arm.
"Boss!" The others roared in anger.
They all looked different. Some were like skeletons, some were handsome middle-aged, and some had gray eyebrows like old men. However, all of them had a profound cultivation level. It was impossible to guess the depth of their cultivation level from their appearance.
They pushed the formation to the extreme, and immediately broke Chu Li's restraint.
"Bang!" The invisible force exploded. Chu Li suddenly flashed and retreated, avoiding their attack.
"Bang!" A deep pit appeared on the ground, so deep that the bottom could not be seen.
Chu Li frowned. The cultivation level of these eight old monsters was really shocking. They were only slightly inferior to Song Wuji. It was clear that they were terrifying, and it was clear that Song Wuji was terrifying.
Seeing their situation, he suddenly realized that there was a bottleneck in the later stages of cultivation. There was a limit. If the body was not complete and not strong enough, no matter how long they cultivated, they could not break through.
He did not know how magical this arcane realm was to allow them to live for so long, but they could not compare to Song Wuji's thousand years of cultivation. It was clear that the path of cultivation did not become stronger with time.
"Bang!" Deep pits exploded one after another. Chu Li dodged in a panic.
Zheng Da's arm was pressed back by him, and it was not obvious that he was cut off.
The formation of the eight of them was getting stronger, and the room for Chu Li to escape was getting smaller. Cheng Yuan and Lu Qingxue clenched their fists, wanting to go forward and help, but reason stopped them.
