Chu Li looked at him coldly, his face expressionless.
Wen Tingdao chuckled and stopped in boredom. He shook his head and said, "That's quite funny. It's strange to say that the Divine Light Sword Technique is a top-notch sword technique. The Divine Light Sword Technique isn't one of the top-notch sword techniques in the world!"
Chu Li scoffed. "What sword techniques are there then?"
"Our Sword Moon Palace's sword techniques, Ultimate Sword, True Jade Sword, Plain Maiden Sword, and Star Gazing Sword, are all top-notch sword techniques in the world. Even Hai Cang Mountain's sword techniques aren't considered top-notch, let alone your Great Radiance Sword!"
Chu Li frowned at him.
He had never heard of any of these sword techniques. He couldn't be so ignorant, could he?
Wen Tingdao grinned. "Do you feel like you've never heard of any of them?"
Chu Li scoffed. "It can't be nonsense, right?"
"Haha!" Wen Tingdao shook his head. "It's only natural that you can't hear such things in the countryside! The world respects the Fu Dynasty, and the Fu Dynasty reveres Taoism. The Great One Palace is the orthodox Taoism of the world. The Great One Divine Sword is almost a divine skill, and no one can defeat it! "
Chu Li said, "There's no such thing as an invincible sword technique."
"The Greater One Divine Sword is not a sword made of ordinary iron. It is a sword made of spirit and Qi. It is formless and hard to defend against." Wen Tingdao shook his head. "It's truly the best sword in the world. Your Divine Light Sword is nothing compared to the Tai Yi Celestial Sword!"
Chu Li frowned. "There's such a sword technique?"
"The world is vast, but you're only in the Li Dynasty. The Li Dynasty is a poor and remote place, so it's inevitable that your knowledge is limited!" Wen Tingdao said with a smile, "What do you think? Do you want to visit the Fu Dynasty?"
Chu Li scoffed. "No need!"
"The Holy Church of Light is the overlord of the Li Dynasty, but it's very ordinary in the Fu Dynasty. If you join the Sword Moon Sect, the Holy Church of Light won't be able to touch you!" Wen Tingdao shook his head. "You'll only know what prosperity is when you come to the Fu Dynasty!"
Chu Li asked, "What sword techniques do you have to exchange?"
"You want a sword art?" Wen Tingdao pondered for a moment before saying, "There's a Lesser Ultimate Sword in our sect. It's the basic sword technique of the Ultimate Sword. It's shockingly powerful, far more powerful than your Divine Light Sword. What's more, the Ultimate Sword doesn't require a specific Sword Manipulation Mental Technique. It can be activated with any mental technique, and its power depends on the mental technique."
Chu Li shook his head. "The Ultimate Sword is more like it. Forget about the Less Ultimate Sword!"
"The Ultimate Sword is the ultimate sword technique of the Ultimate Temple. It has never been taught to outsiders!" Wen Tingdao could not help but laugh. "We don't have the ability to obtain the Ultimate Sword. You're too greedy!"
"Forget it then!" Chu Li said, "Normal sword techniques aren't worth the Detachment Pill!"
"How about a few Common Knotgrass?"
The Common Knotgrass is useless. I might not be able to refine it next time.
"Then tell me, what do I need to do to exchange?"
"Unless it's one of the Eight Sects' signature martial arts, I won't trade," Chu Li said.
"Haha!" Wen Tingdao pointed at him and said, "Zhao Dahe, you're being too greedy. It's just a Detachment Pill. It's not like it's a life-saving pill that can bring the dead back to life. Even if it's a Detachment Pill, it's not worth the sect guarding martial arts!"
Chu Li spread his arms. "Have a safe trip. I won't be seeing you out!"
"Why don't you think about it?" Wen Tingdao's expression darkened as he said coldly, "We're showing our sincerity. The Less Ultimate Sword is far better than your Divine Light Sword. It's a top-notch sword technique. If you miss this chance, don't even think about getting it for the rest of your life!"
Chu Li shook his head. "I won't trade! Other than the sect guarding martial arts, I won't trade anything else. … I see that your sincerity is limited. Forget it then. The Detachment Pill really can't compare to the life-saving pill! "
Wen Tingdao stared at him.
Chu Li stared back at him, unwilling to back down.
"Alright, I hope you won't regret this!" Wen Tingdao said coldly. His figure blurred and disappeared.
Chu Li turned his head and said, "Senior Sister, come out!"
Li Ruolan glided over the wall and landed in front of him. She looked at him with her charming eyes.
Chu Li asked, "What's wrong?"
"Do you know what you've missed?" Li Ruolan scoffed. She looked like she expected better from him. "The Less Ultimate Sword!"
Chu Li sat by the stone table and said lazily, "So what!"
"The Less Ultimate Sword can completely replace our Divine Light Sword!" Li Ruolan said, "If everyone cultivates the Less Ultimate Sword, the Holy Church's strength will increase greatly. Do you know how much credit you'll get?"
Chu Li said, "It's just the Less Ultimate Sword. I want the Ultimate Sword!"
"You're dreaming!" Li Ruolan said impatiently. "You want the Ultimate Sword like everyone else wants the Great Light Scripture. Who can get it?"
"There's a way," Chu Li said.
Li Ruolan looked at his lazy expression and became angry. "The Detachment Pill is yours anyway. You can do whatever you want with it. Just don't regret it. With the Less Ultimate Sword, you can definitely become a patrol!"
Chu Li was stunned. He straightened his body and asked, "I can become a patrol?"
"Most likely!" Li Ruolan glared at him. "You've forcefully pushed a patrol out!"
Chu Li said, "So what if I push him out? It's just a patrol!"
"How arrogant!" Li Ruolan scoffed. "Keep messing around!"
She left in a huff.
Chu Li watched her leave leisurely.
After a while, he turned around to look behind him.
Bai Feng was dressed in white and her face was covered with a white veil. She stood quietly in front of the bamboo forest not far away. The green bamboos behind her swayed, and her white robe fluttered in the wind.
"Senior Bai." Chu Li fist saluted.
Bai Feng floated over and a faint fragrance entered the gazebo.
She sat in front of Chu Li and looked at him quietly across the stone table.
Chu Li smiled. "Senior Bai, what are you looking at?"
"I didn't expect you to grow so quickly. It's only been a few months!" Bai Feng shook her head. "You can already leave the mountain!"
"Senior, you flatter me." Chu Li said, "Please let me know if you have any orders. I'll do my best to help."
Bai Feng hesitated for a while and lowered her voice. "My sect is going to set up a formation outside the town. Don't tell anyone, not even Altar Leader Mo!"
"That's a good thing." Chu Li said, "Isn't it better if everyone supports it?"
"There are too many people and everyone has their own agendas. They might not want the formation to succeed." Bai Feng scoffed. "Altar Leader Mo, for example, doesn't want the formation to succeed. Otherwise, all the credit will go to us and he won't get any credit!"
Chu Li smiled. "That's great!"
"You have a grudge against Altar Leader Mo, don't you?"
"I killed his niece!"
"No wonder …" Bai Feng finally understood. She was smart and could tell that Mo Qianjun was trying to trip Chu Li up. "That's great. Don't tell him that I want to set up the formation secretly."
"What do you want me to do?" Chu Li asked. "I know formations too. I can help."
"You don't have to worry about the formation. You'll be on guard," Bai Feng said. "Although only two or three of us know about it, we have to be careful of Monk Zhi Shan and the others."
"Alright, when do we start?"
"Tonight," Bai Feng said. "Come out from the back door. I'll come and pick you up. We'll leave the town quietly."
"Alright." Chu Li nodded.
Bai Feng fist saluted. "That's it then. Don't tell anyone!"
Chu Li patted his chest. "Senior, don't worry!"
