Li Mo, though still unable to fully understand the methods of the Demon Cultivator, realized the best course of action upon deducing the latter's intentions.
That was to wait.
The Demon Cultivator would undoubtedly pick four scholars with top-quality talent and teach them cultivation techniques; Li Mo could simply seize the opportunity and intervene at that point.
In fact, if he pretended to blend in with the scholars, obtaining the Demon Sect Skills would be much easier.
But alas, Li Mo's talent was far too overwhelming. His Six Paths Body would likely frighten the hidden Demon Cultivator to death or even alert the Sword Tongue Sect a thousand miles away.
Of course, realistically speaking, the Demon Cultivator would probably abandon the idea of accepting disciples immediately.
And treat Li Mo as a Furnace and refine him instead.
"Heh, if I can't fight, I can still flee. Worst case, I'll use the Nearby Array to escape."
