The Spirit Devouring Turtle caught it and swallowed it.
It had a strong instinct and was not afraid of poison, so it swallowed it without hesitation.
Chu Li sighed in relief. He was afraid that it would not eat the Soul Nourishing Pill.
The Flying Cloud Rats rushed at it without hesitation and bit all parts of its body. Groups of Flying Cloud Rats died, but more came out of the holes as if there was no end to them.
"Squeak squeak" was endless. Even though Chu Li's spirit was stronger than before, his head was about to explode after hearing so many squeaks. His hair seemed to be standing on end as he felt restless.
After a while, more than a hundred Flying Cloud Rats died until no more came out. Finally, the baby Flying Cloud Rats came out. Their ferocity surprised him.
He had thought that in nature, there was a strict hierarchy among animals, and that the lower animals would run away from the higher animals instead of attacking them. However, the Flying Cloud Rat made him realize that the spirit beasts in the Hundred Thousand Mountains were different from the animals outside.
Chu Li frowned and stared at the Spirit Devouring Turtle. Was the Soul Nourishing Pill useless?
He was anxious. If it was useless, then he had no way to deal with it. From now on, he would not be able to enter the Hundred-Thousand Hills and meet the two Spirit Cranes. He would not be able to obtain spirit herbs and fruits in the Hundred-Thousand Hills.
He could not accept this.
The Spirit Devouring Turtle's body glowed with strange patterns on its shell. Chu Li had been using the Heavenly Star Insight but could not understand the principles and rules of these patterns. He could not use it on himself.
It looked around and saw the dead Flying Cloud Rats everywhere. Chu Li was the only one standing there.
It suddenly appeared in front of Chu Li.
Chu Li then disappeared.
The two of them hid around the Flying Cloud Rats' mountain.
Chu Li's reaction was extremely fast and he could avoid it at the crucial moment. This was because the Soul Nourishing Pill was effective.
He was overjoyed. If he really fell asleep, he would be able to do whatever he wanted with it.
He had already thought of a way to kill it. He wanted to see if the Sky Killer Sword could kill it. Without the protection of the light, the Sky Killer Sword should be able to kill it with its sharpness.
He then remembered that the Sky Killer Sword had been used twice and could not be used again.
Then he could only fry it. Could it be that it wouldn't die from being fried?
Seeing that the Spirit Devouring Turtle's movements were getting slower and slower, he quickly collected his thoughts. He couldn't afford to be careless. Otherwise, he would fail miserably. That would be too ridiculous.
A moment later, the Spirit Devouring Turtle shook its head, but it was already unable to move its limbs.
Chu Li smiled, but he did not approach it. He wanted to wait until it was completely asleep.
He suddenly disappeared on the spot. If he didn't leave, it would have to force itself to stay awake and even attack before going to sleep. It would be better for him to leave for a while and come back later.
After about a quarter of an hour, he once again appeared here from the Valley of Ten Extremes.
As expected, the Spirit Devouring Turtle had already disappeared.
He appeared in the ice pond again and saw that the Spirit Devouring Turtle was lying by the edge of the pond, as if it wanted to go in but couldn't make it in time, so it could only sleep there with its limbs, head, and tail all retracted back into its shell.
Chu Li took a deep breath and thought about it. He was not in a hurry to kill it.
As long as the Soul Nourishing Pill really made him fall asleep, he wouldn't be able to wake up in a short period of time. He had to wait a little longer to allow the pill's power to be maximized so that he could sleep more soundly. Only then could he be more at ease.
He was always worried that the Spirit-Devouring Turtles were deceiving him, so he didn't dare to underestimate the intelligence of these spirit beasts. He would rather overestimate them than take them for fools.
In the next moment, he appeared in the cave where the Flying Cloud Rat was.
The human bones beside the cave were as clear as jade. He sighed and closed fist saluted. Then, he used the Crouching Tiger Divine Sword to dig.
The Crouching Tiger Divine Sword turned into a ray of light as it moved forward. The soil that was dug out kept flying backward, slowly blocking the entrance of the cave. Chu Li couldn't care less about this. He had to find that treasure as soon as possible.
After digging a few dozen feet deep, his spirit shook. A golden light flashed in front of him and an old monk appeared.
The old monk's eyebrows and beard were all white. His face was square and full of righteousness. He sat cross-legged in the cave and looked straight at him. His eyes were cold and emotionless, without a trace of emotion.
Chu Li frowned. He realized that the monk was just an illusion. It was just a shadow.
"Moo!" He made a gesture and shouted. Suddenly, the shadow disappeared.
He saw a small round bead in the corner of the wall. It was covered in mud and dust. It was yellow and didn't seem to be anything valuable.
He slowly walked forward and picked it up. It was cold to the touch. Instantly, an extremely pure force drilled into his mind.
A monk appeared in the void of his mind. It was the monk from before. His eyes were cold and emotionless. He scanned through the void of Chu Li's mind and suddenly chanted a Buddhist scripture.
Chu Li frowned. Maha-Vairocana's Immovable Buddha opened its eyes. The Maha-Vairocana's Immovable Scripture turned into lotus flowers and floated toward the old monk.
The old monk's body shone brightly, but he still couldn't avoid the golden lotuses. In the end, he was engulfed by the golden lotuses and disappeared without a trace.
Chu Li opened his eyes and looked thoughtfully at the yellow bead in front of him. He carefully wiped it, and the yellow mud fell off, revealing its original appearance. It was crystal clear, just like the crystal bead from his past life.
Chu Li shook his head and smiled. It turned out to be an old monk's sarira.
The old monk's cultivation level was extremely high. He cultivated an extremely unorthodox Buddhist dharma — the Concept of Emotionlessness.
He viewed all sentient beings in the world as emotionless. From there, he viewed all living things as emotionless. Only then could he achieve perfection and transcend the physical body and the world to reach the other side.
He sighed. It was a pity that such an old monk died in the hands of the Flying Cloud Rat. The white skeleton at the entrance of the cave belonged to him. This was the information he obtained from the shadow engulfed by the golden lotuses.
The next moment, he appeared in Ten Despair Valley. He put away the sarira and appeared in front of the Spirit Devouring Turtle.
The Spirit Devouring Turtle was still unconscious. Chu Li gritted his teeth and decided not to bring it out of Hundred-Thousand Hills.
What if frying it wouldn't kill it? That would be a catastrophe. Hence, it was better to stay in Hundred-Thousand Hills.
He set up a huge pot next to the ice pool. This was specially made by a skilled craftsman. He filled the pot with oil and started a fire. The charcoal used for alchemy could quickly increase the intensity of the fire and make the oil boil faster.
Before that, he first went to the Spirit Devouring Turtle with the Crouching Tiger Divine Sword and stabbed at its tail.
"Ding …" The long sword seemed to have hit an iron plate.
He frowned and looked at the turtle's shell. After the tail retracted, the turtle's shell closed up. It was completely sealed!
He looked at the other side and found that it was the same.
The Crouching Tiger Divine Sword couldn't pierce through at all. It could only pierce the turtle's shell. This shell was unimaginably hard and impossible to pierce. In the end, it still had to be fried!
He shook his head and looked at the Spirit Devouring Turtle. It couldn't blame him for being ruthless. It could only blame the turtle for blocking his path. In order to perfect the Dragon Taming Technique and turn the Evil Nether Dragon into a dragon, he had to get rid of all obstacles.
He suddenly felt a sense of danger and was about to leave.
The Spirit Devouring Turtle suddenly stretched out its head and bit his left hand.
His entire left arm was in the Spirit Devouring Turtle's mouth.
Suddenly, an intense pain rushed to his head. His vision suddenly darkened and he almost fainted.
The pain was beyond his imagination. He had never experienced such pain.
