With the help of the Omniscient Mirror, he began to cultivate. The Life and Death Scripture was activated in his mind, and an extremely pure spiritual energy fell. This spiritual energy was then channeled through the Spirit Cultivation Technique and transformed into his soul.
Chu Li quickly stopped the Life and Death Scripture.
He realized the wonders of the Life and Death Scripture. He actually came into contact with even purer spiritual energy, which was thicker and purer than the spiritual energy in this world. It was almost tangible. He did not even need to transform it into inner energy. He could directly channel the Spirit Cultivation Technique and transform it into soul energy.
This was a great supplement to his soul. With this, he did not have to worry about losing his soul energy. It was truly wonderful. It was a pity that he could not strengthen his soul energy now or it would hurt his body.
He shook his head helplessly and stopped the Life and Death Scripture. Then, he shrank into the mountains beside him and began to build a Rotary Tower.
The Rotary Towers he built were located in places where people could not reach. They were either caves, valleys, or in the shade of cliffs. Even if people saw them, they would not notice them.
He built these Rotary Towers to prevent accidents. The Temple of Tanhua was very dangerous. If he really went in, his life would be in danger. If his soul was destroyed, the Rotary Tower might save his life.
If the Life and Death Scripture was paired with the Rotary Tower, it would increase his chances of survival.
Xu Jingyi suddenly appeared in the air. Her green clothes fluttered in the wind. She was beautiful. She stood in the void as if she was walking on flat ground. Her bright eyes looked around, looking for Chu Li.
When she returned to the headquarters with the jade pendant, she actually managed to hide it from the headquarters. When she returned to her own courtyard, she was still not discovered. Only then did she realize how amazing the array formation she had obtained was, and how powerful the array formation master she had met was.
She took the opportunity to pretend that she did not return. She wanted to see how long she could hide it. It was not until yesterday when the jade pendant turned into dust that people realized she had returned. She was more and more impressed with Chu Li's formation and valued him more.
If she could obtain such a formation, even if she could not, it would be good to have this senior's help. It would save her a lot of effort. Therefore, she immediately looked up the Regal Sword Scripture. Then, she handed over the thin booklet and reported her contribution.
The merit this time was great, and the fact that she was being chased was also known by the headquarters. They also knew that she did not reveal her identity in the face of death, so the reward was even greater. She could enter the headquarters' Tan Hua Hall to read the Tan Hua Divine Scripture for two days.
She was overjoyed. She was confident that she could improve her Night's Bloom's Dream to another level, but when she thought of Chu Li's formation, she wanted to know why it suddenly disappeared and whether it would appear again. So, she ran out several times a day to see if it would appear again.
"Ahem." Chu Li's voice suddenly rang in her mind.
She immediately revealed a joyful expression and hurriedly lowered her voice, "Senior?"
Chu Li said, "I suddenly had an urgent matter to attend to. How did it go?"
"I've found information on the Regal Sword Scripture," Xu Jingyi said hurriedly.
Chu Li was overjoyed and quickly asked, "Where is it?"
"Venerable Peak," Xu Jingyi replied, "But it's extremely far from here."
Chu Li asked, "How far?"
"Even with my Light-body Technique, I'm afraid it'll take a year if I travel without stopping," Xu Jingyi said.
Chu Li's heart sank when he heard that. A year here. Although it was only a month in the Outland, a month was easy, but a year here was difficult. Xiao Qi was currently in the most difficult period of her life.
"Is there no other way?" Chu Li asked.
Xu Jingyi shook her head and whispered, "There's a Flying Rock Mountain between Venerable Peak and us. We can't shift the void there, so we can only use Light-body Technique to cross over. The fastest we can do is to shift to Flying Rock Mountain, which will save us a month."
Chu Li asked, "There's no faster way?"
Xu Jingyi sighed. "I can't think of any other way, so we can only take it step by step."
"Has anyone been there before?" Chu Li asked.
Xu Jingyi shook her head and sighed. "No one in our Church has ever crossed Flying Rock Mountain."
After crossing Flying Rock Mountain, there was another world known as the Northern Territory. It was said that martial arts were more flourishing there, but their methods were violent and the people were ruthless. It was not as gentle as the Northern Territory.
People often fought to the death, and the dignity of the Imperial Court was nowhere to be seen. The sects dominated everything, and the sects constantly attacked each other. It was extremely chaotic, and even the common people were unusually fierce.
Therefore, unless it was absolutely necessary, people from the Southern Territory would never cross Flying Rock Mountain. On the other hand, many people from the Northern Territory crossed over. Some were fleeing, while others came to plunder.
But even though the Southern Territory was peaceful, the sects and the imperial court cooperated extremely well. When faced with this kind of murderers who crossed the border, they could only strangle them and never let them escape. No matter how great the price was, they had to kill them.
With such deterrence, there were very few people from the Northern Territory who came to invade. Only lunatics would come to seek death.
It was dangerous to cross the Northern Territory, but it was also dangerous to cross the Southern Territory. If they crossed the Northern Territory, they would be slaughtered by the people from the Northern Territory. Therefore, she wanted to persuade Chu Li not to cross, but when she thought that he had to go to the sect, she sighed. "It's very dangerous over there. There are endless disputes and killings, so you have to be careful."
Chu Li wanted to see Xiao Qi even more, so he asked, "When can we go?"
Xu Jingyi said, "In two days, I'll find someone to help me identify the way, and then we'll cross Flying Rock Mountain. What do you think?"
Chu Li agreed. "That's great."
Xu Jingyi gritted her teeth and said softly, "I've made enough contributions this time, so I can enter the Epiphyllum Hall and read the Epiphyllum Divine Book. If I can improve my martial arts, I'll be more confident in entering the Northern Territory."
Chu Li said, "You don't have to enter the Northern Territory. You just have to go to Flying Rock Mountain."
"Flying Rock Mountain is very difficult to cross," Xu Jingyi said. "Also, it's a place where souls are locked. Souls …"
She shook her head. "I need a treasure to protect my soul. I've already obtained this Soul Protection Pearl, so I need to bring it with me."
Chu Li was helpless. He did not expect this world to be so guarded against souls.
Xu Jingyi said, "I'll only need two days."
"Alright, thank you," Chu Li said.
Xu Jingyi hurriedly waved her hand. "Senior, please don't be so polite. You saved my life."
"… Go," Chu Li said.
Xu Jingyi fist saluted, turned around, and stepped into the void. It was obvious that her Soul Tracking Skill had been removed.
Chu Li wanted to follow her, but he stopped himself. His rationality suppressed the impulse of his emotions. Even if he wanted to read the Epiphyllum Divine Book, he could not take the risk. The Epiphyllum Divine Church's headquarters was too dangerous, especially to his soul.
He waited for two days. On the morning of the third day, Xu Jingyi appeared again. Her aura had changed, becoming more ethereal. It was as if she existed in front of him, but not at the same time. Her Epiphyllum Dream had improved again.
After Xu Jingyi stepped out of the void, she scanned her surroundings. She knew that she could not see Chu Li, but she could not help but want to see.
Chu Li's voice rang in her mind. "Congratulations."
"Let's go." Xu Jingyi smiled and took out a small round pearl. It was the size of a thumb, and it was dark and dull. It looked like it was made of black soil, and it was rough and full of vicissitudes.
"This is the Soul Protection Pearl," Xu Jingyi said. "Senior, can you feel it?"
Chu Li said, "Hmm, it's a little strange."
