The Supreme Sword above her head suddenly lit up, and several sword qi shot out at the same time.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang." Explosions rang out around Chu Li as the invisible sword energy was destroyed.
Chu Li placed his hand on the Crouching Tiger Divine Sword and his aura grew stronger. This was not an illusory aura, but a formless energy. It was similar to the Enlightened Master's Field and it could indeed withstand inner energy.
This was the nemesis of the invisible Sword Qi. When it collided with this invisible Qi field, the Sword Qi was like a wave crashing into a dam. It could only be dispersed and dissipated.
Chu Li placed his hand on the Tiger Tame Divine Sword and took another step forward, glaring at the female Taoist priest.
"Alright!" The female Taoist priest scoffed softly as if she was truly enraged. Several sword energies shot out again and then condensed into one. A brilliant light flashed across the void before it disappeared and reappeared in front of Chu Li in the next moment.
"Bam!" Chu Li unsheathed his sword and stabbed the light.
Chu Li did not take a step back. His white robe fluttered as if he was facing a strong wind. The fruits on the stone table in the gazebo were all swept away.
Chu Li looked at the female Taoist priest sternly and shook his head. "You're no match for me!"
The female Taoist sneered, "Arrogant!"
She shot several Heart Swords at Chu Li.
The Maha-Vairocana's Immobility Scripture in Chu Li's mind opened his eyes and formed a hand seal. After the numerous heart swords entered the void of his mind, they were immediately enveloped by the lotus. As the lotus dispersed, they disappeared.
Chu Li shook his head and said, "If that's the case, then witness my abilities!"
Using the Heart Sword in front of him was no different from showing off in front of an expert. He found it funny.
The God Punishing Needle pierced out.
Bang! The Regal Supreme Sword above the Taoist lady's head suddenly lit up, and a gigantic longsword appeared in the void above her head. It was about three meters long and half a meter wide, which was twice the size of Xiao Qi's Regal Supreme Sword.
"Huh?" She looked at Chu Li in surprise.
The giant sword above her head slowly melted into the void of space and disappeared.
Chu Li narrowed his eyes and shot out several God Killing Needles at the same time.
"Bam bam bam bam!" The giant sword appeared once again and vibrated a few times, its radiance growing brighter and brighter.
Chu Li slowly said, "You really do have some skills!"
The female Daoist frowned and scoffed, "Alright, again!"
She merged several Heart Swords and shot them at Chu Li.
Chu Li narrowed his eyes and gathered his killing intent. The God Slaying Sword that he did not want to use all this while shot out.
The female Daoist let out a muffled groan. The gigantic sword above her head suddenly shone brightly like a blazing sun. After that, the gigantic sword dimmed and slowly melted into the void. Blood flowed from the corner of the female Daoist's mouth. Her countenance was as pale as paper and her eyes were dim.
She was no longer as elegant and graceful as before. Instead, she looked weak and pitiful.
"God Slaying Sword!" She spat out these three words and looked at Chu Li in shock.
Chu Li smiled. "You know about the God Slaying Sword, I'm impressed!"
The female Taoist said slowly, "The God Killing Sword has not appeared for thousands of years. I didn't expect it to appear on you!"
Her voice was weak, as if she could breathe her last at any time.
"Master, are you alright?" Siao Qi asked.
Although she was annoyed that this female Daoist had beaten her up the moment she arrived and wanted to forcefully take her in as a disciple, they both cultivated the Regal Sword Scripture after all, so there was a natural sense of intimacy between them. She wanted to understand this Taiqing Sect clearly.
The female Daoist priest shook her head and said, "I won't die."
Xiao Qi said, "Actually …"
The female Daoist priest waved her hand and interrupted her. "You really don't want to enter the Taiqing Sect?"
"I don't want to." Xiao Qi shook her head firmly.
The female Daoist priest said, "The Taiqing Sect only has you and me."
Xiao Qi frowned and shook her head.
She did not want to leave Chu Li again.
The female Daoist priest said, "It's just love. Why do you have to be so stubborn? The Taiqing Sect is an ancient sect. I never thought that there would still be a disciple to this day. It's really a blessing for the Taiqing Sect!"
Chu Li looked at her.
Even though she was heavily injured by him, she was still shrouded in clear light and could not be seen through by the Omniscient Mirror.
The female Daoist priest said, "Even if the Taiqing Sect's disciples fail to cultivate, they can still live for ten thousand years. If they can cultivate the path, they can live as long as heaven and earth!"
"It's impossible for them to live that long," Xiao Qi said softly.
The female Daoist priest scoffed. "How do you know it's impossible if you haven't seen it? I've seen the founder with my own eyes. She has lived for more than thirty thousand years and is still alive! "
Chu Li said, "Master, you met the founder in the Outland, right?"
The female Daoist priest glanced at him. "Chu Li, right? Do you really want to hinder her from pursuing the path? "
Chu Li smiled. "So what if she lives for a hundred thousand years? If she's all alone, what's the point of living as long as heaven and earth?"
"Humans are born to be alone. The human heart is fickle and evil. Instead of entrusting her to an untrustworthy person, it's better to entrust her to the path. The path won't betray you, but humans will!" The female Daoist priest sneered. "Do you dare to say that she's the only person you love in your life?"
Chu Li was stunned.
Xiao Qi said, "Master, please go back. I won't join the Taiqing Sect!"
"After the Regal Sword Scripture, you're the only one left in the world. The Taiqing Sect has always been a single disciple. Are you going to cut it off with you?" The female Daoist priest scoffed. "Do you want to miss such a great opportunity? Besides, I can see that your husband isn't someone with a short lifespan. If you want to accompany him, I'm afraid it'll be very difficult for you to cultivate alone! "
Xiao Qi's expression changed.
Chu Li knew that this was bad. This had directly exposed the knot in Xiao Qi's heart.
The reason why she had been cultivating so hard and even wanted to cut off her relationship with him was because she wanted to cultivate the Regal Sword Scripture so that she could extend her lifespan and accompany him. She did not want to leave him so early.
The female Daoist priest had previously advised Xiao Qi to give up on him. Xiao Qi was naturally disgusted and immediately rejected it. The female Daoist priest immediately changed her mind and changed her mind from giving up to accompany him. This was the knot in Xiao Qi's heart.
The female Daoist priest said, "If you enter the Taiqing Sect, you'll live for ten thousand years. It'll be enough for you to accompany your husband for a long time."
"But if I enter the Taiqing Sect, I'm afraid I'll have to cut off my emotions and desires, right?" Xiao Qi asked.
The female Daoist priest shook her head. "It's all up to you. Whether you want to or not, it's all up to you. The Regal Sword Scripture doesn't mean that you're heartless. There are many misunderstandings in the world. If you misinterpret this phrase, you'll also misunderstand our heart technique."
Chu Li coughed softly. "Master, do you have a husband?"
"No." The female Daoist priest shook her head. "I'm a monk."
"You don't have to become a monk for the Regal Sword Scripture?" Chu Li asked.
The female Daoist priest replied, "There's no need. You can cultivate at home. As long as you're sincere, there's no harm in learning the Regal Sword Scripture."
Chu Li was still dubious.
Nonetheless, he was reluctant to let Xiao Qi give up on this opportunity.
Xiao Qi had already cultivated the Regal Sword Scripture to its peak. It would be difficult for her to improve further. Even if she did, she did not know how long it would take. The path to improve had been cut off, and she did not know how to continue improving. However, Chu Li would continue to improve.
If the gap between the two of them was too big, Xiao Qi would have a hard time catching up.
Having a lifespan of ten thousand years was indeed a great temptation. Of course, Xiao Qi could not let go of such an opportunity as long as the Taiqing Sect was not an evil sect.
"Alright, I want to enter the Taiqing Sect!" Xiao Qi said. "But I have a condition!"
"Say it." The female Daoist priest's spirit was lifted.
Xiao Qi said, "I don't want to leave my husband, so I'll always be by his side."
"Alright." The female Daoist priest gritted her teeth and nodded. "Then stay by his side. He's also an excellent whetstone. You can acknowledge him as your master now!"
