Lu Li was not interested in the Celestial Emperor Sect because he didn't want to stay here any longer. He had no sense of belonging in the Endless Ruins.
Of all the valuable places in the Celestial Emperor Sect, the one he was most interested in was the Library of Texts because there might be information about the Third Heaven.
Of course, he had just become a disciple of the sect so he could not go to the Library of Texts right away.
When he returned to the Rui Fort, Wang Ningxue told him that there would be a banquet organized by her to celebrate Lu Li becoming a disciple of the sect. Hu Simeng and the others would be there.
Lu Li agreed readily. Wang Ningxue had prepared a banquet especially for him. He didn't like this kind of thing but he would not embarrass Wang Ningxue.
Back in his room, Lu Li didn't cultivate. Instead, he began to observe the Divine Chains of Order. He used the Divine Chains by chance. He was still confused and didn't know how he could control them back then.
He recalled that he was badly injured and his life force was consumed. The Divine Chains of Order automatically protected him and helped him recover his life force and wounds.
He felt there was some simple spiritual connection with the Divine Chains of Order. Out of instinct, he controlled the Divine Chains of Order to attack. As it turned out, the Divine Chains of Order really did it.
He wanted to mobilize the Divine Chains of Order but he couldn't. He stayed in his room for a couple of hours and tried many ways but the Divine Chains of Order didn't do anything.
"Do I have to blow myself up before I can mobilize the Divine Chains of Order?"
Lu Li frowned. He was troubled.
While he was wondering what to do, the Blood Evil Sovereign said, "Don't waste your time. You are too weak. The Divine Chains of Order will not work for you.
This Divine Chain of Order is intelligent and it will protect its master. But it doesn't mean that it will listen to your orders now. "
"Eh..."
Lu Li touched his nose, feeling embarrassed. He asked, "Then, Lord Evil Sovereign, how powerful do I have to be for it to work for me?"
"Emperor Realm!"
The Blood Evil Sovereign said, "At least Emperor Realm. This Divine Chain of Order does not have intelligence but it is intelligent. You can only control it when you reach a certain level."
"I see!"
Lu Li nodded. He thought about it and asked, "Lord Evil Sovereign, Emperor Rui gave me two choices. I chose to cultivate my soul and body. Is this the right way?"
"I'm not sure if I'm right or wrong!"
The Blood Evil Emperor said, "The 3,000 Great Ways can all lead to the highest level. No one can guarantee which path is correct.
Since you like to walk this path, then walk it.
If you follow the Rui Emperor, you'll have a lot of resources. You'll be able to go further than if you stayed at the Third Heaven.
Actually, I personally suggest that you … cultivate here for tens of thousands of years. Don't bother about the Third Layer of Heaven. With your meager strength, you won't be able to do much even if you go back.
If you can break through to the Emperor Realm here, or even Saint Emperor, then you'll be of great use when you return. "
"Tens of thousands of years …"
Lu Li touched his nose, shook his head and said, "My heart of Taoism is not stable.
Not to mention Saint Emperor. Moreover, how was it possible to break through to Saint Emperor in tens of thousands of years?
Although my strength is very weak, if I can return to the Third Heavenly Layer, every bit of strength is a bit of strength. Even if I die, I will die with my clansmen.
Tens of thousands of years … When I return, I'm afraid that the Third Heaven will become the second Devil Abyss, right?
Once the Demon Lord of the Devil Abyss descends, who can stop him? "
"Actually …" The Blood Evil Emperor thought for a while and said, "You don't have to worry too much. It's not impossible for a Saint Emperor to exist in the Third Heaven."
"What?"
Lu Li's eyes were wide open. He thought he had heard it wrong. He asked, "Lord Evil Emperor, are you sure?
There are Saint Emperors in the Third Heaven?
I have never heard of such a thing. If there are Saint Emperors, how come they don't come out to take charge? "
"I don't know the details!"
The Blood Evil Emperor explained, "But I know that some Saint Emperors have a kind of skill. Before they die, they can seal themselves into a deep sleep, which is to pretend to be dead.
Of course, such Saint Emperors can only launch one or two attacks at most. I think there are many of them, at least more than a dozen.
Therefore, even if one or two Demon Lords come from the Devil Abyss, the Third Heaven can still deal with them.
As a matter of fact … I also suspect that there are living Saint Emperors in the Third Heaven. It's just that they have been hiding and are not known to the world. "
"Pretend to be dead?"
This was the first time Lu Li had heard of this. Those Saint Emperors had existed for millions of years. How could someone seal himself for millions of years?
What kind of shocking divine ability was this?
"Don't worry too much!"
The Blood Evil Emperor comforted him, "When the Fourth Heaven and above collapsed, many powerful warriors swarmed into the Third Heaven. The Third Heaven has a strong foundation. It is not as weak as you think.
Don't worry. When the real crisis breaks out, those hidden powerful warriors will come out.
I can guarantee that there are at least dozens of reclusive demons at the Third Heaven. They are as powerful as the Reincarnation Emperor. "
"Dozens?"
Lu Li was surprised again, but he was relieved. A warrior like the Blood Evil Emperor would not stoop to lying.
Now that he had said so, the Third Heaven should be able to hold on for some time. At least, they wouldn't be defeated so quickly.
"Focus on cultivation and try to grow!"
The Blood Evil Emperor said one last thing, "If you are not powerful enough, you will only be cannon fodder when you go back now. You will be of no use.
If you want to go back, you must be as powerful as a Quasi-Emperor.
If you don't, you will not be able to go back even if you can find the way. The turbulence in space is horrifying. "
Lu Li nodded. He was much more relieved now.
It was dark outside. After a while, Wang Ningxue walked over. Lu Li followed her out of the Rui Fortress.
"What?"
Seeing Wang Ningxue walking toward the Teleportation Formation, Lu Li asked with curiosity, "We are leaving the Celestial Emperor Realm?"
"Of course!"
Wang Ningxue nodded and said, "I don't have the guts to hold a banquet in the Celestial Emperor Realm. Let's go to the Celestial City.
We are official disciples and we can go in and out of the Celestial Emperor Realm at will. There are many disciples in the Celestial City. Many don't like the atmosphere in the Celestial Emperor Realm. They prefer to cultivate in the Celestial City.
Right, you have a small manor in the Celestial City. Master has something to deal with. Let's cultivate on our own.
If you want to stay in the Celestial City, it's okay. Master will send someone to call you back if something happens. Of course … we cannot leave the Celestial City. We must report to the sect if we want to leave. "
Lu Li understood!
The Celestial Emperor Realm was coming out of the secular world. The Celestial City was entering the secular world.
Many disciples had a heavy heart. They couldn't stand the suffocating atmosphere in the Celestial Emperor Realm.
The Celestial City was a colorful world. Young people liked lively scenes and were not steady enough. If they were forced to live an ascetic life in the Celestial Emperor Realm, many of them would ruin things.
Leaving the secular world was also a kind of cultivation. After experiencing the prosperity of the world, people's mentality might change. Sometimes, cultivation could advance by leaps and bounds.
Blindly cultivating in closed-door cultivation could easily lead to qi deviation.
Of course.
If they were to be greedy for the secular world and not make any progress, the sect would not tolerate it.
Lu Li believed that there must be secret supervising messengers in the Celestial City. All the disciples' performance would be monitored.
