Chu Li's expression changed slightly. He grabbed Zhou Zeyang and was about to disappear.
"Haha, too late!" Shen Xing giggled.
"Ah!" Zhou Zeyang suddenly roared, and a violent force penetrated him. Chu Li's body stiffened, and he could not use God's Limbs.
The vertical pupil in between Shen Xing's brows opened, and a golden light shot out.
The golden light fell on him, and he froze.
Shen Xinggao floated in front of Chu Li and lightly hit his chest with her palm.
"Ah!" Zhou Zeyang roared.
Instantly, several green earthworms appeared on his face and the back of his hands. They wriggled as if they were about to break out of his body. His roar was deafening like a thunderclap.
Chu Li's spirit was lifted, and he quickly regained his figure in the air. The next moment, he flashed to Zhou Zeyang's side, and the two disappeared.
"Ah!" Shen Xing slammed the ground.
"Bam bam bam bam …" Among the continuous muffled sounds, several deep pits were blasted on the ground.
Her face was cold, and the air around her seemed to be frozen.
This time, she used all her skills to restrain Zhou Zeyang and lure Chu Li into a trap. Then, she used a sealing technique on Zhou Zeyang's body. The Lifeless Divine Power instantly exploded, and it was enough to injure Chu Li.
When Chu Li froze, she would use God's Eye and kill him.
She did not expect Chu Li to advance so quickly. Her full force palm was not enough to kill him, and she could even use her divine power to take Zhou Zeyang away.
She had never spent so much effort on a person, and she had never suffered such a setback!
The next moment, Chu Li appeared at the peak of a mountain.
"Ah!" Chu Li spat out a mouthful of blood, staggered, and fell to the ground. He struggled but could not get up.
Zhou Zeyang also spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground softly.
The two lay on the ground, panting, and did not have the strength to get up.
Chu Li smiled bitterly. "Senior Zhou, you're lucky!"
"You're really lucky!" Zhou Zeyang smiled bitterly. "I thought I couldn't escape!"
He was restrained by Shen Xing again, and he knew he could not escape this time. Shen Xing was smart, and would not make the same mistake. She would definitely kill him first.
However, he had not expected Shen Xing's knot to be Jingru. She had actually used him as bait. Otherwise, he would have died.
He was touched. He did not expect Chu Li to risk his life to save him at that time. If Chu Li had not saved him, he would not have been tricked and would not have been injured.
Chu Li panted for a while. The Scripture of Life and Death circulated and a vigorous life force enveloped the two of them.
Zhou Zeyang sighed and said, "Jingru, your miraculous technique is truly powerful!"
Chu Li smiled. "It's the ancient Scripture of Life and Death. Have you heard of it, Senior Zhou?"
He discovered that it was almost impossible for him to improve the Life and Death Scripture, so he wanted to find out some information from Zhou Zeyang. The Deity Race had countless strange arts and techniques, but they wouldn't covet the Life and Death Scripture.
Zhou Zeyang frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it."
He sighed inwardly. Perhaps it was because the early stages had boundless wondrous uses, but its potential was limited. The Deity Clan could memorize all the unique and unparalleled arts, and they wouldn't memorize ordinary martial arts.
Chu Li looked disappointed.
The Deity Clan didn't know about it, so it seemed like he had cultivated the Life and Death Scripture to its peak.
Although it was already extremely powerful, he didn't give up. No matter how powerful the Life and Death Scripture was, he wouldn't be afraid of the Lifeless Divine Power. It was a pity that he couldn't find a way to improve it.
"It was thanks to her that we were able to escape this time. She didn't expect you to improve so much." Zhou Zeyang struggled to sit up and recovered a bit of strength.
Chu Li nodded. "She improved too."
Every time he saw Shen Xing, he could feel her improvement. It was obvious that she was also collecting or cultivating miraculous arts and wasn't satisfied with the completion of the Lifeless Divine Power.
This Shen Xing was the scariest.
Zhou Zeyang said, "Is there no way for us to survive?"
He was lucky to escape this time, but it might not be the same the next time. The masters from the clan didn't come after a long time, which made him extremely dissatisfied, but he had no choice but to defend to the death.
Chu Li thought about it and shook his head with difficulty.
"I'll help you cultivate again." Zhou Zeyang scoffed.
Chu Li smiled bitterly and shook his head. "My Sun and Moon Lotus Planting Scripture has reached the sixth level. Even with Senior Zhou's help, it's useless. My progress is slow."
Zhou Zeyang frowned. "The level is too high. Is my inner energy not pure enough?"
Chu Li sighed and didn't say anything.
Zhou Zeyang said, "Sun and Moon Lotus Planting Scripture … I also have a secret technique related to lotus."
Chu Li's spirit rose.
Zhou Zeyang muttered to himself.
Chu Li knew his concerns. After all, the two of them were enemies. If he cultivated it and fought against the Enlightened Masters, he would be the sinner of the Enlightened Masters.
Zhou Zeyang said, "Jinru, if you swear not to use this technique against the Enlightened Masters and not to kill the Enlightened Masters, I can only pass this technique to you."
Chu Li shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Senior Zhou, I can only swear not to use this technique to kill the Enlightened Masters, but I can't guarantee not to attack the Enlightened Masters. After all, I'm a disciple of the Lotus Faction. I need to protect myself or save my companions."
"You can't capture them alive." Zhou Zeyang said, "I can't help the humans kill or capture the Enlightened Masters."
"… Alright, it's just for self-protection." Chu Li nodded slowly.
After he said that, he raised three fingers and swore to the heavens.
Zhou Zeyang believed in oaths. Seeing Chu Li swear, he smiled and suppressed his complicated emotions. He didn't know whether this was a sin or not.
He convinced himself that Jinru had a bright heart and was trustworthy. Jinru had extraordinary aptitude and could rapidly improve her cultivation. Only by being strong enough could the two of them stop Shen Xing.
Otherwise, before his clansmen came to help, without waiting for orders from the clan, he would die. He would be killed by the Lifeless Divine Power and completely disappear from this world.
The longer one lived, the more they feared death.
"This mystical technique is called the Heaven Lotus God's Descent." Zhou Zeyang said, "It needs enough spiritual power and a strong enough body. You meet these two requirements."
Chu Li raised his eyebrows. "This is a rapid heart technique?"
"It's similar to the Heaven Sacrifice Technique." Zhou Zeyang said, "In the Upper Realm, there are Heaven Lotuses that float in the void and contain mystical power. This technique can connect the two realms and draw the power of Heaven Lotuses for one's own use."
Chu Li raised his eyebrows. "With such a secret technique, what's the point of cultivating it?"
Zhou Zeyang shook his head. "Heaven Lotuses have their own spirituality. Not everyone can borrow their power just because they want to. You cultivate the secret lotus technique and the Sun and Moon Lotus Planting Scripture. You're full of lotuses, so it's easy to borrow the power of Heaven Lotuses."
Chu Li smiled. "There won't be any danger, right?"
"That depends on your own cultivation. As long as you're not too greedy, there won't be any danger," Zhou Zeyang said.
Chu Li nodded slowly. "Then please teach it to me."
Zhou Zeyang took out a thin booklet and passed it to Chu Li. "Destroy it after you've read it. Don't spread it."
Chu Li nodded and took the booklet. He flipped through it carefully and saw a vivid picture of Heaven Lotus. It was as if it had jumped in front of his eyes.
Below it were sixteen incantations.
Every incantation was mysterious. Even though he was knowledgeable, he could not understand a single one.
He looked at Zhou Zeyang with a troubled expression.
Zhou Zeyang shook his head. "I've never cultivated this before. I only know the heart technique. You can figure it out yourself."
Chu Li smiled bitterly. "Senior, I'm afraid I won't be able to cultivate it."
He could not understand a single one of the sixteen incantations. He had no clue and was confused.
"Just try cultivating it. Your aptitude is amazing. There's hope for you to cultivate it," Zhou Zeyang said.
