Song Manyin looked at Chu Li thoughtfully.
She was good at hiding her killing intent and was especially sensitive to it. A faint killing intent flashed by and she felt that it was Chu Li.
As the saying goes, people of the same trade are wary of each other. Maybe he felt threatened.
Chu Li sighed. "Since Mister Bao can predict the Heavenly Oracle, then you should calculate Zhou Yong's whereabouts first."
"Of course." Bao Cheng nodded. "Since the Formless Blade is with Zhou Yong, we should calculate his whereabouts first."
Song Manyin saw through Chu Li's thoughts but she did not point it out.
She also wanted to see how capable this renowned Bao Cheng was, and whether or not he could calculate that Zhou Yong had already been executed.
Bao Cheng picked up two pieces of clothing and touched them gently. He closed his eyes and started moving his fingers. A strange force descended from the void and slowly descended, surrounding him.
Chu Li nodded to himself. Bao Cheng was quite capable. He was indeed proficient in the Divination Technique.
After a while, Bao Cheng opened his eyes and looked at Chu Li, then at Song Manyin. "Congratulations, Sect Leader Song. Zhou Yong is no longer in this world. He has been killed!"
"Brother Zhou's life or death is a small matter. The key is the Formless Blade." Song Manyin asked, "Did Mister Bao find the Formless Blade?"
"I'm afraid it won't work with this blade alone." Bao Cheng shook his head. "There's nothing to rely on. It's best if there are traces left by the Formless Blade."
"Then I can only rely on my injury." Song Manyin said, "I was severely injured by the Formless Blade. The blade energy is still there."
Bao Cheng hesitated and thought for a while. "I can try!"
Song Manyin smiled at Chu Li. "Mister Li, what about you? Do you want to try too? "
Chu Li waved his hand. "I'll pass. I've already calculated it and I got nothing. I won't waste my effort."
"With the blade energy of the Formless Blade, you might be more accurate." Song Manyin said.
Chu Li shook his head.
Song Manyin looked at him and smiled. "Mister Li, do you really not want the Formless Blade?"
Chu Li said, "I don't train in flying blades. What's the use of the Formless Blade!"
"You can exchange it for the Flash Sword." Song Manyin smiled.
Chu Li chuckled. "Can I use a Heaven Blade Order to exchange for the Flash Light Sword?"
"… That's possible." Song Manyin hesitated for a moment before she finally snorted.
Chu Li chuckled and said no more.
Song Manyin rolled her eyes at him and then looked at Bao Cheng. "Mr. Bao, please!"
She gently raised her jade-like hands in front of Bao Cheng.
Bao Cheng also extended his hand.
Song Manyin grabbed his wrist and sent a blade energy into his body.
"Pu!" Bao Cheng flew backwards and landed ten steps away, landing heavily on the corridor.
Song Manyin had already tried her best to control the force of her saber. Otherwise, she would have killed Bao Cheng.
Bao Cheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and sat down cross-legged. He formed a seal with his hands and slowly closed his eyes.
Chu Li sighed. "This Mister Bao is quite capable."
"It shouldn't be difficult to divine Senior Brother Zhou's death," Song Manyin said.
She did not completely trust Bao Cheng. Seeing was believing. She had witnessed how powerful Chu Li was, but he could not find the Formless Blade. It was hard to say if Bao Cheng could find it.
Chu Li said, "This Mister Bao's divination technique isn't from the Star Seizing Sect, right?"
"Mysterious Sky City. The other sect is proficient in the divination technique. However, the Star Seizing Sect is a prominent sect while Mysterious Sky City is a hidden sect. Almost no one knows about them and their disciples almost never step foot into the world, "Song Manyin said.
Chu Li nodded. "Mysterious Sky City …"
He now had a basic understanding of the martial arts world in this world. He had heard of the legend of Mysterious Sky City, but it was ten thousand years ago. It was as if it had been hidden from the world for ten thousand years and was thought to be extinct.
"Mysterious Sky as a Mirror." Chu Li sighed. "It's mysterious."
"Mysterious Sky as a mirror, heaven and earth as a lake," Song Manyin said. "The people of the world are like fish. They look at the fish in the lake through a mirror and look at the lines on the palm. Mysterious Sky City's divination technique is not inferior to the Star Seizing Sect. Unfortunately, there are too many rules, which leads to a lack of disciples."
Chu Li said, "Yes …"
His murderous intent dissipated. He could not afford to offend Mysterious Sky City for now.
Even if he had the Flying Star Technique and the Eye of the Sky, he dared not say that he could defeat Mysterious Sky City. Usually, they would ambush him unknowingly and he would be on tenterhooks.
However, he suddenly had a hint of worry. He did not know if his setup could block the divination of the heavenly design.
"Pfft!" Bao Cheng suddenly spat out blood and his body trembled.
He opened his eyes and shook his head helplessly.
"Mister Bao!" Song Manyin hurried forward and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Bao Cheng waved his hand and said with a solemn expression, "Sect Leader Song will be disappointed. I couldn't divine the location of the Formless Blade!"
"Oh?" Song Manyin stared at him curiously.
Bao Cheng shook his head and struggled to stand up with the help of the railing. He wiped the corner of his mouth and looked at the blood on his hand. He smiled bitterly. "Formless Blade!"
"Mister Bao!" Song Manyin said, "Tell me about it!"
"Sigh …" Bao Cheng said, "This blade involves too much and the divination is unpredictable. Looking at it is a mess and it's too exhausting."
Chu Li secretly sighed in relief.
He did not choose that natural formation in vain. The Formless Blade was hidden in the formation and the divination could not divine it. It seemed that the Mysterious Sky Mirror could not see it either. If he had the Eye of the Sky, he might not have missed it.
This was also his cautiousness. He set it up in advance to prevent Song Manyin from using this trick.
"Is there really no other way?" Song Manyin frowned.
She stared at Bao Cheng and was doubtful.
If Bao Cheng managed to divine it but pretended not to and she secretly found it, there was nothing she could do.
She sighed and said, "I found a Prophet Stone to exchange with Mister Bao. I'm afraid now …"
Chu Li's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Bao Cheng.
The Prophet Stone was just a normal stone to a normal person and was useless. However, to those who cultivated divination, it was a priceless treasure as it could increase the power of the divination technique.
Sometimes, one could see it clearly by just a little bit and that was the difference between life and death.
However, the Prophet Stone was extremely rare. Even if a normal person saw it, they would not be able to tell it apart and would only treat it as a normal stone.
The Prophet Stone was no different from a normal stone. It did not have a fixed appearance. Some could be a cobblestone, some could be a bluestone, and some could be a small pebble.
Therefore, obtaining the Divine Fate Stone was purely a matter of luck. There was no other way. To those who practiced the Divine Fate Technique, the Divine Fate Stone was ten times, a hundred times, or even countless times more precious than the Phaseless Blade.
Song Manyin said, "Mister Bao, I can only say that it's a pity."
"Wait!" Bao Cheng said, "Since Sect Leader Song is so sincere, I have no choice but to risk my life."
Song Manyin smiled, "Mister Bao, you have another way?"
"I'll give it a try!" Bao Cheng nodded slowly and carefully took out a small box. After opening it, there was a small piece of purple wood the size of a pinky.
"This is the Prophet Insect." Bao Cheng said, "It can help me!"
"Thank you, Mister Bao!" Song Manyin smiled.
Bao Cheng took out the Prophet Insect and rubbed it. Instantly, a thin wisp of smoke floated up and exuded a strange fragrance. Chu Li's vision suddenly blurred.
