He admitted it on the surface, but in his heart, he was determined to try. He would not stop until he saw the arcane realm for himself.
Cheng Yuan saw through his thoughts and sighed. "You're not giving up, are you?"
Chu Li said, "I have to try. I'm not convinced if I surrender without trying."
"Alright," Cheng Yuan said helplessly. "You can try. If it doesn't work, you can use Vitality Technique to deal with them. Vitality Technique targets their weaknesses. Even if you can't kill them, you can still get rid of one or two of them. It will instill fear in them so they won't dare to act recklessly."
He did not wait for Chu Li to speak and continued, "First, we have to destroy their arrogance. Don't think that they can do whatever they want in the world!"
Chu Li shook his head. "It's useless."
"How can it be useless!" Cheng Yuan scoffed. "They've lost their arrogance and won't be so extreme in their actions, giving us a chance to breathe."
"What's the use of breathing!" Chu Li said. "If we don't surrender, what about the other sects? Sect Leader Cheng, you're a person of virtue and prestige. Can you convince them to fight against the Tianfeng Sect together? "
Cheng Yuan choked and slowly sighed.
Seeking benefits and avoiding harm was fundamental, especially for a sect leader. He could not act according to his temper and act rashly. He had to prioritize the interests of the sect. For a sect, surrendering was far more beneficial than resisting.
The world was so big that there was no need to worry about having no enemies. The Tianfeng Sect would never let go of a mortal enemy like the Flying Heaven Sect. The Flying Heaven Sect had no other choice but to fight to the death. Under the destructive power of these old demons, any resistance would be futile.
Chu Li fist saluted. "That's it. Sect Leader Cheng, I'll take my leave first."
"Be careful." Cheng Yuan fist saluted and could only say goodbye.
Chu Li suddenly disappeared in a flash.
As soon as he disappeared, Lu Qingxue floated in and frowned. Seeing that Chu Li was not there, she scoffed. "Did Yuan Si learn Vitality Technique?"
"Yes." Cheng Yuan smiled bitterly. "Qingxue, we've been friends for many years, but it can't compare to our friendship with Yuan Si?"
"Although Yuansi is intelligent, she is simple, kind, and has no intention of harming others. You, on the other hand, are different. You rely on your intelligence to scheme at every turn!" Lu Qingxue said coldly, "Whoever trusts you will suffer."
Cheng Yuan smiled and said, "Thank you for your compliment. I scheme against others, but I won't scheme against you, Qingxue."
"Scheming against others has become your instinct. You don't care if it's me or not." Lu Qingxue said coldly, "Once Yuansi learns the Energy Absorption Technique, he'll have to deal with those guys, and you can hide behind him."
"I also want to stand up and block them, but unfortunately …" Cheng Yuan revealed a bitter expression.
He really wanted to defeat the twelve old monsters in one fell swoop and show off his heroic spirit in front of Lu Qingxue to win her heart. However, the world would not change according to his will, and it would only make him look incompetent.
Lu Qingxue said, "Then what else is there to say? Goodbye!"
"Qing Xue, you …" Cheng Yuan quickly waved his hand.
Lu Qingxue, however, ignored him and disappeared.
Chu Li appeared at the foot of the Tianfeng Sect. He stood on a treetop halfway up the mountain and observed the Tianfeng Sect. His Omniscient Mirror had already broken through the Mountain Protection Formation and he could see the situation inside the Tianfeng Sect.
With the strengthening of his spirit and soul, the Omniscient Mirror's ability to see through the illusion and see through the illusion became stronger. He could directly break through the formation and see the inside clearly. With such ability, he could see through the formation in one go.
He himself had a strong and profound foundation in formations. He only needed to deduce and he would be able to break this formation and find the entrance to the formation.
Moreover, even if he did not use the formation to deduce, he could directly use the Omniscient Mirror to see the entrance and directly walk over. However, in order to improve his cultivation in formations, he still used the formation to deduce and then directly used the Omniscient Mirror to see through the void.
There was a solemn atmosphere in the Tianfeng Sect. There was no joy at all, only tension and seriousness. There were not many disciples in the sect. The remaining disciples were cleaning and dealing with some miscellaneous things, but they were disciples from outside the sect.
The rest of the disciples had disappeared. Chu Li thought about it and knew that they had entered the arcane realm.
Once the arcane realm opened, it did not matter to the sects outside. It was possible that the entire Tianfeng Sect had moved into the arcane realm.
The arcane realm opened once every ten thousand years. Once it opened, it could last for up to a hundred years. It would not close for a short period of time. Therefore, they could rest assured and stay inside to develop the sect.
Therefore, God wanted the Tianfeng Sect to prosper. If he knew in advance and intercepted them, even if the Tianfeng Sect had an arcane realm, they would not have disciples. It would take a while for the Tianfeng Sect to rise again. However, the disciples of the Tianfeng Sect had entered the arcane realm. When they came out, they would be top-notch masters. The Flying Heaven Sect would not be able to resist them.
He lowered his head and drew a few lines on the ground, deducing the Tianfeng Sect's Mountain Protection Formation.
Two hours later, he raised his head to take another look and frowned.
The entrance that he had deduced had moved and was not in its original position. As expected of the Mountain Protection Formation, it could change according to the movement of the sun or the movement of the stars.
He was once again immersed in his deduction.
After another hour, Chu Li let out a sigh of relief and smiled. He finally understood the mystery of the Mountain Protection Formation. His formation cultivation had improved, and he had gained a lot.
He suddenly disappeared on the spot and appeared outside the Tianfeng Sect Leader's Basilica in the next moment.
The Sect Leader's Basilica was empty. There was not a single person in it. The other places were the same. Even the Sutra Library was gone. It had been moved to the arcane realm. This place could be said to be an empty shell. Only eight outer sect disciples were left to clean it.
Chu Li walked around the Sect Leader's Basilica twice, but the eight disciples did not notice him.
The Mountain Protection Formation was activated and no one could enter. The eight disciples were confident that no one would be able to enter, so they did not care if there was anyone. They only wanted to clean it up. If the seniors of the sect came back to take a look, they would definitely punish them if they saw that they had not cleaned up properly.
Chu Li looked at the basilica from top to bottom. He used the Omniscient Mirror to observe, but it was all white. He could not see clearly. Among the many buildings, only the Sect Leader's Basilica had this strange phenomenon. The other palaces and courtyards did not have this strange phenomenon.
Even if there were treasures, they must have been taken away. There must be a reason why the Sect Leader's Basilica still had this strange phenomenon.
He wondered if the arcane realm would know that something had happened here. If they knew, how did they find out? If he could sense it, and with the Heavenly Demonic Blade's aura left on Zheng Da and the others, he might be able to find the arcane realm.
Moreover, this hazy white light made him curious. The Omniscient Mirror could not see clearly was not an ordinary thing. There must be something special about it.
He glided into the Sect Leader's Basilica again. The basilica only had furniture and paintings on the wall. It did not seem to be missing anything, but it gave off a feeling of emptiness.
Chu Li's gaze suddenly fell on a painting.
It was a painting of a crane and pine tree behind the armchair in the center.
This kind of crane and pine tree was popular in the lower realm. It was the same in this realm. It was even popular in the Heavenly Demonic Realm. Chu Li did not notice it before. Now that he looked carefully, he suddenly found something strange.
He thought for a while and slowly reached out to touch the painting. However, he was blocked by an invisible force.
Chu Li raised his eyebrows. His eyes lit up with excitement.
It seemed that there was something strange about this painting. Could it be some kind of treasure?
Suddenly, footsteps came from outside. He flashed behind a screen and saw two young men come in. They began to wipe the furniture and talked while wiping.
