Chu Li looked at them calmly.

Elder Bai sighed. “Our Heavenly Demonic Power is not invincible. On the contrary, our Heavenly Demonic Sect has always been despised. Others have spared no effort to beat us down, but fortunately, we have not provoked an Enlightened Master before.”

“You have the Heavenly Demonic Power, but you’re still afraid of Enlightened Masters?” Chu Li frowned. “Even if you provoke them, they still can’t catch you, right?”

“Sigh…” Elder Bai shook his head with a wry smile. “The Heavenly Demonic Power is useless against the Enlightened Masters as they can find people according to spiritual power fluctuations. Changing your appearance doesn’t have an effect on an Enlightened Master.”

Chu Li frowned. “The Heavenly Demonic Power is that useless?”

“That’s not true,” Elder Bai said. “If the Heavenly Demonic power can be cultivated to the seventh level, you can outwit an Enlightened Master. However, reaching that point is as difficult as climbing the sky!”

“The seventh level…” Chu Li murmured. “I’ve already reached the sixth level, but I don’t know how to reach the seventh level. That’s why I want to enter the Heavenly Demonic Sect and see the Seniors’ cultivation experience.”

“It’s already very surprising that you could reach the sixth level,” Elder Bai said slowly.

He had always been talking good-naturedly to Chu Li. For Chu Li to be able to cultivate to the sixth level of the Heavenly Demonic Power, it showed that he was a rare genius. He truly felt regretful. If Chu Li could join the Heavenly Demonic Sect, he might become a pillar in the future. It was a pity that he wanted to take revenge on an Enlightened Master and seek his own death. Not only was it not beneficial to the Heavenly Demonic Sect, but it would also cause trouble for them instead.

Chu Li said, “How can I reach the seventh level?”

“The seventh level…” Elder Bai frowned at him and glanced at the other three Elders.

Instead, the three Elders exchanged looks and shook their heads.

Elder Bai sighed and revealed a helpless expression to Chu Li.

Chu Li looked disappointed. “In that case, we’ll treat it as if I came to the wrong sect. I will leave now!”

Elder Bai looked conflicted.

If this boy in front of him could cultivate to the seventh level, even if his assassination attempt failed, the Heavenly Demonic Sect would not be implicated. Furthermore, with his ability, he might not need to cultivate to the seventh level. Even after reaching the seventh level, it would not guarantee that he would be able to escape from an Enlightened Master.

“By the way, can the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique really harm an Enlightened Master?” Chu Li asked.

“You can’t use the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique now.” Elder Bai shook his head. “It’s useless even if you can… In fact, if you want to go up against an Enlightened Master, you need to cultivate to the eighth level at least, or else it’ll be tantamount to suicide!”

“The eighth level…” Chu Li frowned. “I can’t wait that long. The Ji Dynasty Emperor won’t live that long!”

Elder Bai said. “He still has ten years to live?”

Chu Li nodded slowly.

Elder Bai showed a smile. “You might be able to cultivate until the eighth level in ten years.”

Chu Li’s expression became excited.

Elder Bai glanced at the three Elders again.

The three Elders exchanged looks and finally gave a slow nod.

Elder Bai said, “The cultivation of the Heavenly Demonic Power requires accumulation and insight. Your inner state is crucial, and if you’ve accumulated enough, you can understand the inner state through the Heavenly Demon Statue, thereby reaching the next level. Therefore, the cultivation of the Heavenly Demonic Power requires extremely high comprehension.”

“You mean this Heavenly Demon Statue?” Chu Li pointed at the Heavenly Demon Statue opposite him.

He had just seen the power of the Heavenly Demon Statue earlier. It was incredibly mystical, but he did not know that it was so brilliant.

Elder Bai said, “How about this? If you can cultivate to the seventh level, you can join the Heavenly Demonic Sect!”

Chu Li frowned. “How do I cultivate to the seventh level?”

“The Heavenly Demonic Orb can devour inner energy and it’ll make your cultivation go much quicker.” Elder Bai said. “You’ve managed to cultivate to this boundary because of the Heavenly Demonic Orb, right?”

Chu Li nodded.

The Heavenly Demonic Orb’s ability to devour was powerful. It was as if he could strengthen himself infinitely. However, that was one of the most deadly abilities as it could only devour inner energy that was more powerful than its own but not inner energy that was weaker than itself.

As a result, he could only challenge those who were stronger than himself. The reason why the weak could overcome the strong was so exciting was that it was rare. It could happen once or twice, but never more. If he did not have the Limb of God and other abilities, and only relied on the Heavenly Demonic Orb, he would have been killed multiple times already.

That was why even though the Heavenly Demonic Orb seemed powerful, it was very deadly. Cultivators who could not resist the temptation would take the risk and attempt to devour, like robbing others to make money quickly. Once they had a taste, how could they bear to go back to accumulating slowly?

A general was bound to die in battle. If he continued to take risks, he would definitely die one day. Depending on the Heavenly Demonic Orb to cultivate was the same. Unless he had great luck, he would eventually die.

The reason Chu Li could cultivate to the sixth level at such a young age was clearly because of the Heavenly Demonic Orb. Furthermore, he had other special skills and was brighter than the others. Strengthening a boundary relied on cultivation, but breaking through a boundary relied on inner state and comprehension.

There were many people with good luck, but few with good luck and comprehension. Yet, what the Heavenly Demonic Sect needed the most was a disciple with good comprehension.

“Just continue cultivating,” Elder Bai said. “When you reach a bottleneck, you can come over and we’ll help you overcome it.”

“The Heavenly Demonic Orb cultivation speed is too slow,” Chu Li said.

Elder Bai responded, “It’s already very fast.”

Chu Li said, “I heard that in order to cultivate the Heavenly Demonic Power, one has to follow their desires.”

“It’s too early to talk about that.” Elder Bai shook his head with a smile. “You need to cultivate to the ninth level and gain perfect mastery over the Heavenly Demonic Power first. If you don’t do that before reaching the ninth level, you will die.”

Chu Li raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Is that information that the Heavenly Demonic Sect is deliberately spreading?”

“You’re very clever.” Elder Bai revealed a smile.

Chu Li said slowly, “If I cultivate to the seventh level, can I use the Heavenly Demonic Spirit Devouring Technique?”

“…Yes.”

“What conditions are there?” Chu Li asked.

Elder Bai sighed. “We’ll talk about that when you reach the seventh level.”

Chu Li fist saluted. “Then, I’ll take my leave.”

“…Xiao Qu,” Elder Bai called in a deep voice.

A set of footsteps sounded from outside. Then, Qu Jing entered the hall and gave a fist salute.

Elder Bai said, “You leave with Du Feng.”

“Yes.” Qu Jing fist saluted again.

Elder Bai said, “If you’ve finished cultivating to the sixth level, go find Xiao Qu!”

Qu Jing said, “Leave it to me.”

Chu Li fist saluted. He put on his mask again and left with Qu Jing.

Looking at their silhouettes, Elder Bai and the others started to talk.

“Senior Brother Bai, are you really going to accept him into the sect?”

“Why not?”

“He wants to go against an Enlightened Master. He’s seeking death. Wouldn’t it be a waste of our hard work?”

“If he can cultivate to the eighth level, he can still run away from an Enlightened Master. It won’t be in vain.”

“He can cultivate to the eighth level?”

“It’s not a big problem,” Elder Bai said in a deep voice. “If he could cultivate to the sixth level by himself, his comprehension must be amazing. It’s not impossible for him to reach the eighth level.”

“Let Xiao Qu continue to observe him. If it’s really possible, then we’ll count on Senior Brother Bai!” someone else said.

Elder Bai laughed. “That’ll depend on his luck.”

Chu Li clearly knew what they were thinking, but he was not worried at all.

The Heavenly Demonic Power was mysterious. It promoted cultivation through the Heavenly Demonic Orb’s devouring. However, there was a shortcut that he could take. He could rely on the sect’s power and find Seniors to pour their strength into him. Then, the Heavenly Demonic Orb would devour this power and rapidly push him towards the next level.
