Chu Li nodded slowly.
He had guessed this as well. A war had broken out in the Outland, so the Grandmasters were required to ascend and become Celestial Beings to participate in the war. These Grandmasters were then used as cannon fodder.
He did not believe that these Celestial Beings came down with good intentions. Good things would not happen to the people of this world.
Li Xinghe said, "Based on what I know, there are many regions in the Outland. Just like our countries, Asuras occupy a region known as the Asura Realm. They are bloodthirsty and immortal, which is a huge threat to the other Celestial Beings."
Chu Li asked, "Why did Asura suddenly declare war?"
"Perhaps there's some conflict or a conflict of interest." Li Xinghe frowned and said, "Wars often happen very abruptly and catch people off guard. The reasons are often bizarre and unimaginable. However, I can conclude that they are fighting with Asura, and the situation is not optimistic. After all, Celestials can still perish and be reincarnated, but Asura are indestructible."
"Is there really no way to kill Asura?" Chu Li frowned. "There's no such thing as an invincible person in this world. There must be something that can restrain them."
If there was Yin, there must be Yang, and if there was life, there must be death. This was the rule of Heaven and Earth. No matter how strong Asura was, there must be a way to kill it. Chu Li firmly believed this, but he had not been able to find it.
Li Xinghe shook his head. "Nobody knows. The Celestial Beings have been looking for it, but unfortunately …"
He sighed. "Brother Chu, don't waste your effort. As long as you kill them and suppress the Heart of Asura, you can delay their resurrection."
"How long can it be suppressed?" Chu Li asked.
"A hundred years." Li Xinghe said, "From what I know, even the most powerful force can only suppress the Heart of Asura for a hundred years. Once the time is up, Asura will naturally reincarnate into the Outland."
Chu Li pondered.
He suddenly understood why the Tempest Temple's Heart of Asura went missing and ascended to the Outland. It turned out that it had reached the limit of its suppression and was about to ascend to the Outland to reincarnate into the Asura Realm.
Both of them chatted as they traveled. Li Xinghe could travel several miles with a single step. Chu Li also shifted the void to follow him. Both of them arrived at an ocean after two hours.
Li Xinghe said, "We'll find the floating mountain after a hundred miles to the south.
Chu Li asked, "How did you find them?"
"Naturally, we have our sect's unique power, divination." Li Xinghe smiled and said, "The disciples of the Changshen Sect are powerful, but not all of them are. As long as we can find one, we can keep an eye on the floating mountain."
Chu Li frowned at him.
He had also tried to deduce the existence of the floating mountain, but it had been blocked by an invisible force. Why didn't Li Xinghe deduce it?
He narrowed his eyes at Li Xinghe. "Extrapolate? Don't tell me you're just brushing me off? "
"What do you mean?" Li Xinghe was stunned.
Chu Li suddenly burst into laughter. "It's impossible to deduce their location. There's a force protecting them. It's not that I'm looking down on Stargazing Pavilion, but you won't be able to break through this force with your abilities!"
"Sigh, alright." Li Xinghe smiled wryly and said, "I can't hide it from you anymore. Our disciples are on the floating mountain."
"Impressive." Chu Li could not help but laugh. "You actually managed to place a chess piece on the floating mountain!"
"It's not our own ability, it's the previous Sect Leader's doing." Li Xinghe shook his head and sighed. "We're really getting worse with each generation. We're still far behind our ancestors."
"Brother Li, you might have a chance to surpass them," Chu Li said.
Li Xinghe shook his head. "I still have this bit of self-awareness. I don't have the heart to advance courageously. I'm just an ordinary person who won't amount to much."
Chu Li said, "Your current achievements aren't any worse than the previous Sect Leader, right?"
"I'm still lacking a little," Li Xinghe replied.
The two of them stopped at the seaside and did not continue forward. Chu Li knew the reason without asking. It was because the only thing needed to determine one's position on the sea was the stars.
It was still daytime, so it was difficult to see the stars. They had to sense it carefully, which was quite exhausting. Hence, it was better to wait until nighttime.
They sat on a reef by the seaside and cultivated for a while. When night fell completely, the moon rose, and the sky was filled with twinkling stars, they got up and set foot on the sea.
Under the moonlight, the sea was boundless. At first glance, it looked like a vast thicket of grass. However, when the surface of the sea swayed slightly, it displayed a tyrannical force that could move one's soul. It was enough to make one flinch.
The two of them stepped on the surface of the sea as if it was flat ground. They walked forward step by step, still using the Ground Shrinking Technique. In the blink of an eye, they were almost a hundred miles away. Li Xinghe looked up at the sky and counted with his fingers before nodding. "We're up there!"
Chu Li said, "Go back first. Don't let them know."
Li Xinghe nodded slowly. "Then be careful. The Longevity Church isn't as simple as it seems. There are powerful people hiding, not just Song Zhifan."
Chu Li smiled. "It couldn't be better!"
As he spoke, he let out a long howl that traveled a few miles along the surface of the sea. "Song Zhifan, show yourself!"
Li Xinghe was on his way back when he heard the howl. He shook his head helplessly. Was this not letting Song Zhifan know in advance and be prepared? He might even escape in advance.
He really did not know what he was thinking.
Chu Li let out another long howl. "If you don't show yourself, don't blame me for throwing away the Heaven Killing Sword!"
"I'll throw the Heaven Killing Sword into one of the valleys in the Hundred-Thousand Hills. No one will be able to find it. Don't even think about getting the Heaven Killing Sword in this lifetime!"
Chu Li's voice was like rolling thunder that lingered in the night sky for a long time.
Chu Li shouted again, "The Heaven Killing Sword is here. Song Zhifan, do you have the guts to come and take it?"
"Don't you want the Heaven Killing Sword? It's right in front of you, yet you don't dare to come and take it. You should just obediently retreat to the floating mountain and be your bishop. Don't think about the Longevity Church dominating the world! "Chu Li burst out laughing." Haha, what grand ambition? What a joke! "
Suddenly, a loud yell came from the laughter. "Chu Li, don't be arrogant!"
Chu Li stopped laughing and looked at Song Zhifan who appeared out of nowhere. He nodded in satisfaction. "You've finally stuck your head out. How rare. Did the floating mountain come here to avoid me?"
"Avoid you?" Song Zhifan wore a green robe and a golden crown. Under the moonlight, he looked like a deity. He stepped in the void and sneered. "You don't have the qualifications to make our floating mountain hide!"
Chu Li laughed. "Then why hide here?"
"To avoid the Celestials." Song Zhifan said lightly. "You know how annoying these Celestials are."
Chu Li said, "Celestials are indeed annoying. You still want the Heaven Killing Sword?"
Song Zhifan scoffed. "You've thought it through and want to give me the Heaven Killing Sword?"
Chu Li said, "Let's have a spar. If you can win, the Heaven Killing Sword is yours. If you can't, the Heaven Killing Art is mine!"
"Alright!" Song Zhifan happily agreed. "I'll tell you in advance. Even if you get the Heaven Killing Art, you won't be able to cultivate it. Don't blame me for not telling you in advance!"
Chu Li smiled. "Why can't I cultivate it?"
"Without the Ageless Longevity Technique, you'll be dead before you can cultivate it." Song Zhifan scoffed.
