Chu Li asked, "Does cultivating the Heavenly Heart Technique require special qualities?"
"If you don't have any special aptitude, you will definitely die if you cultivate it." Ding Ruijie looked at him indifferently and said, "You dare to cultivate it?"
"There's no harm in trying, right?" Chu Li asked.
Ding Ruijie smiled faintly. "That depends on your luck. Once it's not suitable for cultivation, you'll die. There's no way you'll get lucky. Besides, it's not like your injuries will worsen bit by bit. You'll die instantly."
Chu Li frowned.
He didn't expect this Heavenly Heart Sutra to be so vicious. Once one didn't meet the requirements, they would die.
Ding Ruijie said, "If you want to die, I won't stop you."
Chu Li asked, "Don't tell me that the Prophecy Pavilion's martial arts have no way to restrain it?"
"Yes," Ding Ruijie said indifferently. "The Heaven-defying Art is at Goddess Attraction Mountain."
Chu Li frowned and remained silent.
Ding Ruijie said, "The disciples of Goddess Attraction Mountain almost never appear, nor do they oppose the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets. Thus, having them is equivalent to not having them. As long as the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets does not go overboard, Goddess Attraction Mountain will not interfere."
Chu Li said, "In that case, only Goddess Attraction Mountain can keep the Prophecy Pavilion in check."
"… Yes." Ding Ruijie said lightly.
From her mind, Chu Li knew that the Destiny Pavilion and Goddess Attraction Mountain had a very deep relationship. The key to this relationship was the Stargazing Pavilion. The founder of the Stargazing Pavilion was a woman, and this woman's husband was the founder of Goddess Attraction Mountain.
The Pavilion of Divine Mysteries' secret arts originated from the Stargazing Pavilion and were created by its disciples. Since the Immortal Attraction Mountain could restrain the Stargazing Pavilion, it could naturally restrain the Pavilion of Divine Mysteries as well.
Chu Li shook his head. The relationship between them was very complicated. If he could not see Ding Ruijie's mind, it would be very difficult to understand.
Chu Li remained silent. It seemed that there was no hope of restraining the Prophecy Pavilion. He could only cultivate the secret skills of the Prophecy Pavilion. However, the Heavenly Heart Technique was so powerful that it was an extremely risky gamble. He would have to think carefully about whether or not to cultivate it.
If he could cultivate the Heavenly Heart Sutra, he felt that there would be endless benefits. At the very least, he would be able to increase the might of the Nature Restoration Manifestation. He might even be able to pry into the mysteries of heaven.
Thinking of this, his heart was burning.
Ding Ruijie said, "If you kill me, be careful of the revenge of the Pavilion of Heavenly Mysteries. Their disciples were killed, and they can even find out who the murderer is."
Chu Li stared at her.
Ding Ruijie lightly said, "This isn't a threat. I'm just telling you lest you regret it in the future."
Chu Li asked, "Senior Ding, do you think I'll show you mercy?"
"No," Ding Ruijie said.
She knew how strong Chu Li's killing intent was. He had to get rid of her, or else she would not stop killing him. Both of them would fight to the death, and only one of them could live. Zhao Dahe would not let go of this opportunity.
Chu Li asked, "Senior Ding, do you have any last words?"
"That's all." Ding Ruijie said faintly, "I'm leaving first. You'll follow me later."
"That might not be the case." Chu Li smiled.
"I have a request," Ding Ruijie said.
Chu Li said, "Speak."
Ding Ruijie said, "I want to be buried with Shixiong."
Chu Li was surprised. "Your senior brother?"
"My senior brother died a long time ago, but his grave is still there, in that valley. I'll have to trouble you to bury me in his grave," Ding Ruijie said lightly.
Chu Li pondered for a moment and finally nodded slowly. "… Alright."
He read Ding Ruijie's thoughts. Indeed, there were no traps or ambushes. Instead, she was eager to be buried together with her Senior Brother. This way, it would be easier to find him in the Realm Beyond Heavens. Otherwise, they would be too far apart.
— —
Chu Li once again appeared in the ravine that he had been to before.
He was holding Ding Ruijie's corpse in his hand.
This time, he did not mercilessly destroy the flower and behead Ding Ruijie.
This was because Ding Ruijie's lifespan had come to an end. Even if he had a spirit medicine like the Spirit Blessing Pill, he would not be able to save her.
In a situation where her lifespan had come to an end, the Spirit Blessing Pill would be ineffective. Ding Ruijie was dead, and no one could save her. Hence, he did not have to be merciless and let her be buried together with his Senior Brother.
The formation in the ravine was still there, and it continued to operate. He quickly entered the ravine and buried Ding Ruijie. Finally, he came to a wooden house and found a box under a bamboo bed.
The small box looked like it was used to store jewelry. It looked very ordinary, and the purple paint gave off a dark glow.
He opened it to take a look. There were only three yellowing silk books in the box. He took them out and flipped through them. One of them had the words "Heavenly Heart Technique" written on it, and it was overflowing with ancient meaning. The other one was a Taoist scripture with no heart technique, and the last one was a Peering Heaven Technique.
Chu Li reached out to take it, and flipped through it carefully. He nodded in satisfaction. Other than the Taoist scripture, the other two books were impressive secret skills. Needless to say, the Heavenly Heart Technique was the basic heart technique of the Divine Prophecy Pavilion. The other book, the Peering Heaven Technique, was even more amazing. It was a secret skill that could see through destiny.
He was overjoyed. If he could cultivate both of them, he would not be inferior to the disciples of the Divine Prophecy Pavilion.
He disappeared in a flash and appeared in the Imperial Residence of King An.
In his own courtyard, Chu Li sat in the pagoda, and looked at the three secret manuals on the stone table thoughtfully.
He was feeling the aura of the three secret manuals, and using his intuition to determine their degree of danger, he wanted to see if he could cultivate them.
The intuition of a Grandmaster was a very mysterious power. It could predict danger. He could not tell where this power came from, but he firmly believed that if there was danger in cultivating the secret skills of the Divine Prophecy Pavilion, he should be able to sense it. It was better not to cultivate it.
He reached out and pressed on the secret manual of the Heavenly Heart Technique. His mind turned, and he wanted to cultivate it.
A vague intuition appeared in his heart, but it did not allow him to touch this secret manual.
Chu Li frowned. If that was the case, he was really not suitable to cultivate the Heavenly Heart Technique. He was not fated with it.
He reached out and pressed on the other Peering Heaven Technique.
As soon as the thought of cultivating it appeared, a surge of warnings appeared in his heart, telling him that he must not cultivate it.
Chu Li looked at this Peering Heaven Technique thoughtfully. It seemed that he was not fated with this Peering Heaven Technique, so he could not cultivate it.
He believed in his intuition. If it said that he could not cultivate it and should stay far away, then he would not cultivate it and stay far away. Otherwise, he would be digging his own grave.
He stuffed the Peering Heaven Technique directly into his chest, and looked at the Heavenly Heart Technique on the table.
After thinking for a while, his intuition only told him that there was danger, but it was not as strong as the Peering Heaven Technique. What did this mean? Did it mean that cultivating it would only be dangerous, but not necessarily fatal?
However, danger was also troublesome. It seemed that he was not suitable to cultivate it.
Should he cultivate it or not?
He stood up and paced with his hands behind his back. His mind was spinning, weighing the pros and cons. He could not decide for a moment.
The sound of footsteps was heard. Siao Shi came in. Her white tunic fluttered in the wind. She did not have a white veil on her face, revealing her beautiful face.
"What are you thinking about?" She looked at Chu Li curiously. She came to the pagoda, and as soon as she sat down, she saw the Heavenly Heart Technique on the stone table. She took it and flipped through it. She raised her head in surprise, "Where did you get this?"
"I picked it up," Chu Li said.
Siao Shi was surprised, "Isn't this the Divine Intelligence Pavilion's Heavenly Heart Technique?"
"Yes," Chu Li said.
Siao Shi exclaimed, "I didn't expect to finally encounter it!"
Chu Li shook his head and sighed, "Too bad I can't cultivate it."
