Unfortunately, things did not always go as one wished. Although he had the intention, there was no other way.
His Heavenly Star Insight made another deduction.
Another scene appeared in front of his eyes. He was still a middle-aged man, fighting with a man with light flowing around him. He chased after the man with light all around him. One was fighting while the other was fleeing, flying through the sky. Wherever they passed, rocks would shatter, and dirt would fly.
Chu Li left the void of his mind and fell into deep thought again.
Could it be that his future had not changed? Obtaining the Pure Blood Pill and quickly leveling up the Dragon Taming Technique seemed to have messed up the future, but he did not break the path of fate and was still moving forward according to the original path of fate.
Thinking of this, he frowned. It seemed that it was very difficult to break the original path of fate. It was not something that could be done with just a stroke of luck. It was easy to say that man could conquer nature, but it was too difficult to do.
He sighed and shook his head. It seemed that he could only take the last step and go to Hundred-Thousand Hills to look for spirit herbs.
It was too dangerous to look for spirit herbs in Hundred-Thousand Hills.
He had previously used the Heavenly Star Insight to look for spirit herbs in Hundred-Thousand Hills, but every spirit herb was guarded by spirit beasts.
It was not that these spirit herbs were precious, but that although Hundred-Thousand Hills looked huge, every corner was guarded by spirit beasts. They were all territories of spirit beasts. If an outsider invaded, the owner of the territory would not sit and watch. Although he was strong now, he was still not a match for spirit beasts.
However, at this point, for the sake of perfecting the Dragon Taming Technique, he had to take a risk and start with the easiest spirit beasts.
He suddenly disappeared and arrived at Spirit Cranes Peak in the next moment.
Two white shadows flashed and the two white cranes chased after him again. The two cranes and one man fought for a while before stopping. Chu Li used the Omniscient Mirror to convey his thoughts to the two cranes.
The spirit cranes chirped and spread their wings. Chu Li flew up and sat on them.
With a clear chirp, the two cranes flew up and entered the clouds in the blink of an eye. Suddenly, the surroundings became abnormally cold.
Chu Li had long reached a state where he was immune to heat and cold. He closed his eyes and stuck close to the crane's back. The strong wind that was blowing against his face was too strong. He used the Omniscient Mirror to observe the area below him, searching for spirit herbs.
He suddenly disappeared from the crane's back and appeared halfway up a mountain. There was a seemingly ordinary spirit herb under his feet. It was one of the spirit herbs needed for the Pure Blood Pill.
Through the observation of the Omniscient Mirror, he cautiously reached out his hand and slowly approached the Spirit Herb.
"Squeak!" Amidst an ear-piercing screech, a beam of white light instantly shot towards his eyes.
All of a sudden, Chu Li's vision blurred. This shrill scream had the effect of captivating one's soul. His mind was in a trance. Then, the white light was right in front of him. All the hairs on his body stood up, and he quickly moved to the side.
"Chi!" A whistling sound came from the side of his ear. It was the sound of a white light flashing past.
"Squeak!" Another sharp squeak sounded.
This time, Chu Li was prepared. The Maha-Vairocana Buddha in his mind opened his eyes and formed a mudra with both hands. His mind was as still as a rock and was not disturbed by the whistling sound.
Through the Omniscient Mirror, he could clearly see that the white figure was a palm-sized flying mouse called the Flying Cloud Mouse.
Although it was a mouse, it was not the lowest of the spiritual beasts. Instead, it was a powerful spiritual beast of the third grade, just like the spiritual crane. Its speed was as fast as lightning, and its shrill cries were frightening. Almost no one could withstand its surprise attack.
Its long beard seemed to be able to be used as wings. Its small gem-like eyes emitted a cold light, and it exuded a menacing aura. Its long tail was like a small steel whip, and when it landed on the ground, it cracked the stones.
It kept flying towards Chu Li to prevent him from picking up the Spirit Herb. Although Chu Li's body movement technique was fast, he could not outrun it. Thus, he was entangled. Moreover, the Spirit Herb could not be directly taken from the air, so he had to carefully dig it out.
A clear cry came from the sky. Suddenly, two Spirit Cranes swooped down toward the Flying Cloud Mouse.
The Flying Cloud Mouse instantly disappeared from Chu Li's sight. It evaded the Spirit Cranes and appeared on top of a pine tree. It stared at the two Spirit Cranes vigilantly. Its long beard trembled and its jewel-like eyes were filled with anger.
The two Spirit Cranes stood in front of Chu Li.
Chu Li quickly took the opportunity to bend down and dig up the Spirit Herb. He was overjoyed to find two more Spirit Herbs.
"Squeak squeak squeak squeak!" The Flying Cloud Mouse squeaked incessantly.
Chu Li shuddered. He knew that something was wrong.
"Squeak squeak squeak squeak!" Suddenly, a sharp squeak was heard from afar. Then, several white lights shot over. Two of them went for the two Spirit Cranes while the other four went for Chu Li.
Chu Li had already dug up a Spirit Herb. He shouted, "Let's go!"
The two Spirit Cranes flapped their wings and flew into the sky.
The Flying Cloud Mice squeaked and rushed over. One of them went for the Spirit Cranes' eyes while the rest went for Chu Li.
Chu Li suddenly disappeared from where he was and appeared halfway up another mountain peak in the next second.
The Flying Cloud Mice squeaked and flew toward him.
Even with Maha-Vairocana's Immobility Scripture, Chu Li was stunned for a moment. The power of these squeaks was shocking. His soul was a few times stronger than an ordinary person's, and he had Maha-Vairocana's Immobility Scripture to protect him. If it was another person, even an Enlightened Master, they would only end up in a daze. There was no way they could survive. He had a taste of how terrifying Spirit Beasts were.
Chu Li flashed again and appeared on the back of the Spirit Cranes in mid-air.
The Flying Cloud Mice squeaked and squeaked as they ran around. They were furious, but they could only watch as Chu Li and the two Spirit Cranes left.
They were fast and could fly, but they could only fly at low altitudes. They could not fly as high as the Spirit Cranes. Chu Li and the Spirit Cranes took advantage of them and retreated easily.
Chu Li sat on the Spirit Cranes' back and secretly wiped away his cold sweat. He had almost died here. If his soul energy had been slightly weaker, he would have been killed by them.
If he had died in their mouths, even his bones would have been gnawed off. He would not have been able to survive even with the Life and Death Scripture. The Hundred-Thousand Hills was a dangerous place. Even Enlightened Masters would die here!
He looked down and shook his head. It was a pity that he could not dig up the other two Spirit Herbs. He only managed to dig up one.
He thought about it and sent his thoughts to the two Spirit Cranes. They squeaked and turned around to fly back. Soon, they flew over the mountain.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak." The Flying Cloud Mice that had not completely dispersed began to squeak again. They flew up and tried to catch up to the Spirit Cranes.
Unfortunately, they were just a little bit away from catching up to the Spirit Cranes. Hence, they continued to work hard. Some of the Flying Cloud Mice even used themselves as catapults to help their companions. They almost caught up to the Spirit Cranes.
The two Spirit Cranes were startled. They flew higher again and circled around the mountain peak, causing all the Flying Cloud Rats to chase after them. They were enraged, and their gem-like eyes turned red. It was quite a frightening sight.
Chu Li silently appeared beside the two Spirit Herbs. He bent down and started to dig.
"Squeak, squeak!" Suddenly, two white shadows shot toward him.
Chu Li sighed. These fellows should not be underestimated. The two Flying Cloud Mice managed to hide from the Omniscient Mirror and hid in a cave. This cave was a little strange because it could hide the Omniscient Mirror.
