Chu Li carefully kept the Vermilion Bird Power Technique and smiled. "I'm very satisfied with this gift. Thank you, Fa Yuan!"
Fa Yuan shook his head. "This is what Brother Chu deserves. There's no need to thank me. If it wasn't for Brother Chu's help, I wouldn't be where I am today. … Brother Chu, how's your progress? Have you found the other heart techniques?"
Chu Li frowned. "I found the Tiger Taming Technique. The other two are incomplete, including the Dragon Taming Technique from Goddess Attraction Mountain."
He trusted Fa Yuan very much. He was kind and would not lie.
Fa Yuan asked, "Brother Chu, you've obtained the Black Tortoise Power?"
Chu Li nodded slowly.
Fa Yuan smiled. "I thought Brother Chu would ask for it with great fanfare. I didn't expect you to get it so quietly."
"It's a coincidence. I'm just lucky." Chu Li smiled.
If it wasn't for the Vitality Devouring Turtle, he would have to force himself to get the Black Tortoise Power.
The Black Tortoise Mountain's teachings were passed down to the next level. Almost no one reached the top level. Those at the top level were cultivating in the Black Tortoise Hall and would not come out. If he rushed in and knocked them out, he might not be able to get what he wanted. Maybe the Black Tortoise Power had other protections to prevent it from being leaked.
However, to the current him, it wasn't that hard to come by. The most frustrating thing was the Vermilion Bird Divine Art. No matter how powerful he was, there was no place for him to start. It was as if he was trying to swallow the heavens.
Now that he had finally obtained the Vermilion Bird Power Technique, it meant a lot to Chu Li.
"Brother Chu, why don't you cultivate it here?" Fa Yuan suggested.
Chu Li nodded.
He understood Fa Yuan's concerns. The newly advanced Enlightened Master had not reached his best state. He needed some time to digest and his strength would increase again. His current strength was not enough to fight against the Deva's Boundary.
Chu Li stayed in the Tempest Temple for the next few days to cultivate the Vermilion Bird Power Technique.
Unfortunately, his progress was slow.
Although he had comprehended the other three heart techniques and mastered them, it was useless to just comprehend them. The key was that he needed the power of the Vermilion Bird to cultivate.
Relying on the inner force of the Supreme Vajra Scripture, he managed to cultivate three layers in one go, but the higher he went, the slower it would be. Without the help of spirit beasts and just by cultivating on his own, his progress was incomparably slow. He needed to grind it bit by bit, and he didn't know when he would be able to cultivate to perfection.
Chu Li had thought about the Vermilion Bird's Fire, but unfortunately, the Vermilion Bird's Fire was not very beneficial to his cultivation. The Vermilion Bird's Fire and the Vermilion Bird's Power were not the same thing, and neither could replace the other.
He was not in a hurry to push forward. The key was still to find the Vermilion Bird.
He couldn't help but think of the little Vermillion Bird. Unfortunately, the little Vermillion Bird hated the Spirit Beast Sect's mental cultivation technique to the core and would definitely not cooperate with him. He had to think of another way. This wasn't an easy task and he had to do it step by step.
The first step was to obtain the Heaven Murdering Art and enter the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range so that he could protect himself from the Spirit Tiger. Otherwise, if he couldn't enter the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range, there was no way he could encounter the Vermilion Bird.
Chu Li almost always stayed in the Tempest Temple. Other than occasionally going back to Goddess Attraction Mountain to visit Xiao Qi, he did not even spend the night there.
He could now control the Spirit Tiger's spiritual energy and the Vermilion Bird's Fire, so it did not hinder him from being intimate with Xiao Qi. Unfortunately, Xiao Qi was always in Isolated Cultivation and had no time to spare, so she could only continue to be alone.
Half a month later, Fa Yuan had completely mastered the Enlightened Master's Power.
The morning air was exceptionally fresh. The Tempest Temple was still shrouded in the chanting of Buddhist scriptures, solemn and solemn.
Chu Li and Fa Yuan chatted over tea in the temple while Chu Li prepared to leave.
Since Fa Yuan had mastered the Enlightened Master's Power, he was not that afraid of the Devas. Moreover, if the Devas were to approach him, he could directly ask for help and even escape immediately. An Enlightened Master was not that weak when facing a Devas, on the contrary, they were stronger.
The sound of hurried footsteps was heard. A middle-aged monk strode to the courtyard's door and gently knocked. "Junior Brother."
"Senior Brother Xing Yin, please come in," Fa Yuan said.
A tall and burly monk wearing a tight gray frock entered. He was already middle-aged, but he was brimming with energy. At this moment, his face was solemn as he pressed his palms together and bowed. "Junior Brother, I have an urgent matter to report."
"Senior Brother, just say it. Brother Chu is not an outsider," Fa Yuan said.
Chu Li looked at the middle-aged monk with a smile.
Xing Yin hesitated for a moment before he slowly nodded. "One of the Heart of Asura is missing."
Fa Yuan was surprised. "One is missing? Did someone invade the Spirit Prison Tower? … Did the Devas do this? "
As he spoke, his face darkened and the Enlightened God Field was naturally released.
Monk Xing Yin's face instantly turned pale and he could not help but take a step back.
Fa Yuan was shocked and quickly retracted his Enlightened God Field. He frowned. "What happened?"
Xing Yin sighed in relief and shook his head. "It's inexplicable. It disappeared without a trace, and there were no signs of invasion. It was still fine last night, and we were still looking at it at night, but in the morning, one was missing."
Chu Li's expression changed too. The Heart of Asura was not a trivial matter. One Heart of Asura could resurrect an Asura that was immortal and bloodthirsty, and no one knew how many people it had killed.
Fa Yuan asked, "Who was guarding it last night?"
"Honorable Master Kong Wu and Honorable Master Kong Cheng." Xing Yin sighed.
Fa Yuan frowned and did not say anything.
He had confidence in the two Honorable Masters' martial arts and character. They would not have done it privately, and it was impossible for them to have invaded without a sound. So why did they suddenly disappear?
"Brother Chu, follow me to take a look," Fa Yuan said.
Chu Li nodded. "Let's take a look."
The three of them left the temple and passed through a few rows of temples before they arrived at a towering Buddhist pagoda.
This pagoda was not as tall as the previous pagoda that was used to seal the Heaven God, but in terms of grandeur, it was superior. It naturally exuded a sense of solemnity and righteousness, no different from the artistic conception of Buddhism.
Chu Li exclaimed, "This Spirit Prison Tower lives up to its name!"
Fa Yuan nodded. "The Honorable Masters in the temple chant scriptures every day to dispel the evil energy of the Heart of Asura in the tower. Unfortunately, the evil energy of the Heart of Asura is so strong that it is almost impossible to dispel."
Chu Li said, "It's better than not dispelling it."
"Let's hope that the Heart of Asura that escaped did not have such a strong evil energy." Fa Yuan shook his head. "What a sin."
If the Heart of Asura escaped and killed wantonly in order to grow, then it would be the Tempest Temple's sin. They died because of the Tempest Temple's negligence.
Chu Li said, "Can we find the Heart of Asura?"
Although the Tempest Temple did not cultivate divine powers, they did not lack divine ability practitioners, especially those high monks who cultivated in literature. After the Buddha's Light was perfected, divine powers would naturally appear. However, to the Tempest Temple, these divine powers were obstacles to the path to Nirvana. It was better to let go of them.
If they could not let go, it would be difficult to achieve perfection. They could not be freed, which was completely different from the Titanium Temple's cultivation path.
Fa Yuan said slowly, "We should be able to find it, but I'm afraid it will be too late by the time we find it."
Chu Li said, "Then let's find it as soon as possible."
"The Honorable Masters and the others should have already started searching, but we still need to find out how it disappeared. If we can't find the source, it is inevitable that something like this will happen again. When that time comes, the Honorable Masters will not be able to split themselves and the world will be in chaos. "Fa Yuan nodded.
There were a hundred and twenty Hearts of Asura in the Spirit Prison Tower, including the strongest Heart of the Asura King.
