The more outstanding she was, the stronger his murderous intent grew.
Through the short contact, he understood that Shen Xing truly had the heart of a snake and scorpion. She treated human lives like child's play, even more so than the Enlightened Masters.
She killed the masters of the two sects just to test the martial arts she created. She had no qualms about it.
If she disregarded the two major sects like this, how could she not despise others even more? She killed whenever she wanted with no restraints in her heart. This was a dangerous mistake.
He had a grudge against a woman like this. He could not let her live!
"It's not possible for you to kill her." Su Xin saw through the murderous intent beneath Chu Li's calm face. She sighed softly and said, "Let's not talk about her identity and just talk about her martial arts. Unless you've perfected your Solar Lotus Scripture and Lunar Lotus Scripture, you won't be her match."
Chu Li did not speak.
Jing Xue said, "Is the Lotus Sect not going to take revenge?"
"Difficult." Su Xin said, "The Lotus Sect looks powerful as one of the five major sects in Tiannan, but we cannot kill people as we please. At least, we cannot kill Shen Xing!"
"That's impossible." Jing Xue frowned. "Is there any scruples or difficulties?"
Su Xin gently nodded. She sighed and said, "Shen Xing's seniority is not high, but her status is high. If you go to deal with her or kill her, the Extreme Monarch Sect will not say anything. But if our sect's top experts go to kill her, the Extreme Monarch Sect will definitely send their top experts to protect her. … Those with high seniority cannot bully those with low seniority. This is an unwritten rule. Otherwise, all of the junior disciples will die."
"Are we just going to let her be?" Jing Xue said. "Are we not going to take revenge for Senior Brother Luo?"
"No choice." Su Xin shook her head. "The rules cannot be violated unless we also have a top junior master. If we kill Shen Xing, the Zenith Sect cannot say anything!"
"Then all the juniors are afraid of this Shen Xing. Won't she do whatever she wants?" Jing Xue frowned and said in disbelief.
Su Xin nodded slowly. "We can only hide from her."
"This …" Jing Xue could not understand.
Was she willing to watch the souls of the sect disciples scatter for the sake of the rules?
Chu Li said, "Master's Junior, why are you teasing us?"
He felt that as a top sect in Tiannan, they would not show such weakness. They would think of a way to control this situation. Otherwise, how could they maintain their prestige?
Su Xin sighed and said, "Actually, Senior Brother Su Yi wants to deal with her."
Chu Li pondered and muttered, "Could it be that they're lowering their seniority through reincarnation, and then using a secret technique to increase their strength to create geniuses?"
"Most likely." Su Xin nodded and said, "There is a secret technique in the sect that can increase one's talent by burning one's lifespan. However, it requires one to reincarnate."
"Amazing!" Chu Li and Jingxue exclaimed in admiration.
Su Xin shook her head and said, "The lifespan that is being burned isn't ordinary lifespan, but the innate god. After cultivating this technique, even if you reincarnate, you won't be able to change your fate of having a short lifespan."
"That's fine." Jingxue said, "I can reincarnate when my lifespan is up."
"Although the Golden Pond is wondrous, it cannot be created from nothing." Su Xin sighed.
After this experience, Chu Li's mind was unusually agile and far more agile than before. His reaction was sharp and he immediately figured out the essence of the matter. He slowly said, "You can't create something out of nothing. In other words, the Golden Pond can't extend a person's life and can only reincarnate and be reborn? No matter how many times you reincarnate, your lifespan will still be the same as before. "
"Yes." Su Xin slowly nodded.
"I thought with the help of the Golden Pond, one can live forever," Jingxue said.
Su Xin smiled and said, "Since ancient times, has there ever been a person who lived forever? Unless they cultivate to the extreme and ascend, their lifespan will return to zero and they will be completely reborn. "
Jingxue nodded and said, "Can we cultivate that secret technique too?"
Su Xin said, "Don't cultivate it unless you have no other choice. It's like taking chestnuts out of the fire."
Jingxue frowned and said nothing.
Su Xin saw that she was tempted and shook her head. "It might not be useful even if you cultivate it. Senior Brother Suyi has already cultivated it twice, but his soul still dissipated in the end."
She sighed softly and looked at the sky with a melancholic expression. She thought of Senior Brother Suyi's voice and smile. It was as if he was right in front of her, making her even more melancholic.
Chu Li said, "There will be a way. Master's Junior, please continue with your work."
Su Xin looked deeply at Jingxue. "Cultivating the Heavenly Lunar Lotus Scripture is the most important thing. Don't let your imagination run wild!"
"Yes," Jingxue replied with a fist salute.
Su Xin did not know if Jingxue had listened to her. Smart people were often stubborn and would not listen to others. There was no point in saying more, so she fluttered away.
Chu Li stood in front of the Snowy Silver Tree with his hands behind his back and activated the Life and Death Scripture again.
This time, the Life and Death Scripture flashed in the void of his mind. Surging vitality seeped into the Snowy Silver Tree. With the support of the You Wen Formation, it was full of vitality and the Snowy Silver Tree grew rapidly.
"Junior Sister, I want to go to the Sutra Library," Chu Li said.
Jingxue nodded. "Let's go together."
The two fluttered out of the courtyard and went up the mountain. It became steeper and steeper. They passed through thick fog and thick clouds to arrive in front of a majestic stone hall.
The hall was about five hundred square feet wide but a thousand feet tall. The top could not be seen when they looked up as it was covered by clouds. One could only see it clearly with the Great Circle Mystical Sky Mirror.
When the two fluttered into the hall, there were already more than a hundred people in the hall. No one spoke and everyone was reading in silence. Every floor required sufficient cultivation to enter.
Chu Li could only see the bottom three floors back then. Now, he kept going up until he reached the twentieth floor. He could not go any further.
Jingxue calmly went up to the twentieth floor.
"Senior Brother, I saw the tenth floor. I can see from the eleventh floor. What about you?" Jingxue asked.
Chu Li said, "From the fourth floor onward, we'll see on our own."
Jingxue nodded and fluttered down to the eleventh floor. Chu Li went to the fourth floor.
Chu Li shook his head. It was no wonder Jingxue knew so much. She could see more as she climbed higher. The Sutra Library did not limit one's cultivation level to inner energy but one's spirit.
Back when he was bound by this realm, he could only use forty to fifty percent of his spirit. Now, he had completely recovered. With the support of the Divine Sun Lotus Scripture, his spirit had increased.
Jingxue was clearly like him. Her spirit was blessed by nature. It was obvious that she had other fortuitous encounters and secret skills other than the Empyrean Fairy Scripture.
He cleared his mind of distracting thoughts and entered the fourth floor.
Inside the hall, there were rows of tall bookshelves. The books on the shelves were so dense that it was intimidating.
There were people quietly reading under the rows of bookshelves. There was only the sound of books flipping in the entire hall. It was especially quiet. It was as if one's breathing had to be light.
Chu Li stood in the hall. He closed his eyes and did not move.
The Great Circle Dark Void Mirror and Stargazing Technique were circulating continuously. He wanted to find the book that would be most helpful to him instead of flipping through the books one by one.
He decided to read all the books here. However, he had to find the most important book first. He would slowly flip through the rest. He would come back when he had time. If not, he would wait.
The people around him noticed something strange. They glanced at him before lowering their heads to continue reading. They were immersed in the world of books again.
After ten minutes, Chu Li suddenly opened his eyes. He strode to the bookshelf in the northwest corner. He closed his eyes and touched the bookshelf. Finally, he stopped in the middle of the bottom row.
