Chu Li sighed, "Senior, this is like forcing a duck onto a perch. Cultivating it without understanding its meaning, what's the difference from courting death?"
"Your luck has always been good." Zhou Zeyang said, "Or else we would've been killed by Shen Xing. Since our luck is good, let's give it a try."
Chu Li looked at him.
Zhou Zeyang said, "This Heaven Lotus God's Descent is only one of the mystical arts we obtained. No one has cultivated it because the incantation is profound and it doesn't fit with our Enlightened Masters' heart technique."
Chu Li smiled bitterly, "Senior, you spoke so solemnly before and made me swear that the Heaven Lotus God's Descent is so powerful. I thought someone had cultivated it."
"Although we Enlightened Masters haven't cultivated it, we've met people who have." Zhou Zeyang said, "It's indeed powerful. If we can cultivate it, even if we can't kill Shen Xing, we can protect ourselves!"
Chu Li's spirit was lifted.
Shen Xing had now become the greatest nemesis. Compared to the Enlightened Masters, Shen Xing was a greater threat. The Enlightened Masters had been blocked in Tiannan for so long and were not that big of a threat to the Lotus Sect, but Shen Xing was different.
Once Shen Xing came, it was very likely that the Lotus Sect would be destroyed and all the Lotus Sect disciples would be annihilated. So for Shen Xing, he could only give up his intention to kill the Enlightened Masters.
If the Heaven Lotus God's Descent could really stop Shen Xing, then he could protect the Lotus Sect. No matter what, he had to cultivate it.
Thinking of this, he slowly nodded, "I'll try!"
He closed his eyes and began to observe the sixteen incantations in his mind. His body sat in the void of his mind and chanted in a low voice. Some martial arts heart techniques were not to listen to the meaning, but to listen to the sound.
These sixteen incantations were profound and unpredictable. If he comprehended them bit by bit, there was no hope of comprehending them. It would probably take several years.
He couldn't wait that long, so he tried the sound method.
After he finished reciting the sixteen incantations, nothing happened.
He didn't lose heart and continued to chant, but changed the rhythm. At the same time, he visualized the lotus in his mind. The lotus in the void of his mind emitted five-colored brilliance and floated down to his body.
After chanting a dozen times, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and observed the five-colored lotus in the void of his mind. Then, he chanted along with the splendor of the lotus.
The Five Colored Lotus seemed to be constantly glowing, but with his sharp senses, he knew that wasn't the case. The Five Colored Lotus glowed rhythmically, but it was so fast that it could almost be ignored.
Following the rhythm of the Five Colored Lotus, Chu Li quickly recited the incantation. However, these incantations were too difficult to pronounce, so he could not keep up with the rhythm of the Five Colored Lotus.
Unwilling to give up, he quickly recited, continuously honing his eloquence, faster and faster. In the beginning, he could only keep up with one sentence, then two, then three.
By the time he was able to recite all sixteen sentences, four hours had already passed.
Zhou Zeyang had been quietly adjusting his breathing, waiting for Chu Li.
He was also curious as to whether or not Chu Li could successfully cultivate the Celestial Lotus God's Descent.
This technique's power was astonishing, but to this day, there had yet to be a heavenly deity who successfully cultivated it. Moreover, apart from that person from back then, no one else had ever successfully cultivated it.
Giving it to Chu Li would be like trying everything in a desperate situation to see if it could quickly increase his strength.
Chu Li suddenly opened his eyes, formed a seal with his hands, and quickly uttered a sentence. Then, the void suddenly lit up, and a lotus appeared in the clouds.
This lotus was like a white cloud, inconspicuous at first, then it gave off a dazzling light. This light condensed and did not dissipate, turning into a beam of light that fell on Chu Li.
Chu Li's body seemed to have turned into a lotus, and a shadow of a lotus appeared behind his head, then disappeared.
Chu Li's aura suddenly changed, becoming as strong as the sea, and Zhou Zeyang even felt his heart palpitate.
"Succeeded?" he cried out involuntarily.
This was something he never expected. Even if he could cultivate it, it would take a long time. He never thought that he would be able to comprehend the Celestial Lotus God's Descent in just four hours.
Chu Li opened his eyes, and his body was already floating in the air. The lotus under his feet gave off light, and its appearance changed, becoming no different from the Heaven Lotus that was slowly disappearing in the void.
His clothes fluttered, but his body did not change, but his eyes were so bright that they seemed to be solid.
"Senior Zhou, I was lucky to succeed!"
After saying this, he sat cross-legged on the lotus again, and slowly floated down.
The lotus disappeared, and he sat on the ground, closing his eyes.
"Do you need to let it out?" Zhou Zeyang asked anxiously.
He knew that the Celestial Lotus God's Descent absorbed the power of Heaven Lotus, and the feeling of such a vast and powerful force was definitely not a good one. He could not wait to let it out, or else he would explode.
Chu Li shook his head. "Senior Zhou, please protect me."
"Okay," Zhou Zeyang said anxiously.
Chu Li closed his eyes, and began to channel.
He had a flash of inspiration, and thought of a way to quickly increase his cultivation level. After receiving the power of Heaven Lotus, he found that this power was extremely violent, but also extremely pure, and it seemed to faintly match his own power.
More importantly, this power was even purer than his own, so he thought of the Sun and Moon Lotus Planting Scripture.
He activated the Sun and Moon Lotus Planting Scripture, and quickly refined the power absorbed by the Celestial Lotus God's Descent. The Sun and Moon Lotus Planting Scripture was quickly purified, and the levels kept advancing.
Seventh level, eighth level, ninth level.
He rose to the ninth level in one go, and during this time, he used the Celestial Lotus God's Descent twice.
However, when he reached the ninth level, he could no longer advance. The purity of his inner energy was already equal to the Celestial Lotus God's Descent, and they were one. However, his own inner energy was far less vast than the Celestial Lotus God's Descent.
Zhou Zeyang watched as his cultivation level kept increasing, and his aura became lighter and lighter, as if he had become one with the void. He could not be found with his eyes closed.
He could not help but smile bitterly, not knowing if what he did was right or wrong.
Jing Ru's cultivation level had already surpassed him, and he had become one of the top masters. There were probably not many people in the Celestial God Clan who could suppress him.
If Jing Ru really violated the oath and attacked the Celestial God Clan, it would definitely cause great harm.
Chu Li opened his eyes. His eyes were clear, but there was no cold glint. At first glance, he looked like someone who did not know martial arts, but his eyes were a little clearer.
"Senior Zhou, don't worry. I won't violate the oath!" Chu Li smiled.
He saw through Zhou Zeyang's conflicting thoughts.
If it were him, he would also be worried.
Zhou Zeyang smiled bitterly. "I can only think that way. If Shen Xing comes again, can we handle her?"
"We must make her suffer a great loss!" Chu Li said.
He was very confident. Even if he could not kill Shen Xing now, it would not be easy for her to kill him. The ninth level of the Sun and Moon Lotus Planting Scripture was already one of the top masters in the world.
He could even go to the Creation Sect.
When he thought about this, he was tempted to go to the Creation Sect, find Zhou Qinglan, defeat her, and ask for the way to the lower realm so that he could meet Xiao Qi and the others.
Zhou Zeyang said slowly, "It's best if you can kill her!"
"It'll be difficult!"
After all, the Sun and Moon Lotus Planting Scripture was not perfected, and compared to the perfected Lifeless Divine Power, it was still a level lower. However, it would not be a problem for him to heavily injure Shen Xing.
"How arrogant!" Shen Xing's soft laughter suddenly rang in their ears.
Their expressions changed slightly.
Chu Li's heart sank. He did not notice Shen Xing's approach. Their cultivation levels were not that different, so it must be some kind of stealth secret skill that she had probably just cultivated.
It was obvious that Shen Xing had been working hard to improve herself and was trying to kill him.
