PS: Since everyone is so supportive, I can only try my best to repay them. I'll work hard today and try for six chapters!
Chu Li used Imminent Skyline and suddenly stopped by a small river. He bent down to wash the blood off his hands and face, showing signs of recovery.
He touched his face and shook his head.
With the protection of the Sentient Menace and the cultivation of the Art of White Tiger, his body was impenetrable. He never thought that one day he would be injured so badly and in such a sorry state.
Through the observation of the Omniscient Mirror, he saw that the wound on his face was slowly healing, leaving only a slight scar. According to his estimation, he would be back to normal in another two days.
The strength of his body was not only in his impenetrable body, but also in his recovery speed after being injured. With the help of the spiritual energy from the plants, his recovery speed was truly shocking.
After he washed his face, he walked upstream and drank a few mouthfuls of water before continuing to use Imminent Skyline.
Siao Shi was probably starving and thirsty and was about to faint.
As he ran, he thought back to the previous fight.
God's Limbs was different from his Imminent Skyline.
So Close, Yet Worlds Apart traversed through the void. Wherever his vision was, he would be able to reach it in a flash. If he could see one mile away, he would be able to travel one mile away. If he could see two miles away, he would be able to travel two miles away.
If he stood on a high ground, he could teleport ten miles away.
Because of the Omniscient Mirror, he could observe five miles away, so within five miles, he could arrive in an instant.
God's Limbs was different, he did not need to see to come over.
Chu Li speculated that the old monk could follow him because he sensed him with his inner energy. Otherwise, he would not be able to locate him so accurately.
God's Limbs and his Imminent Skyline were similar. The further he teleported, the more inner energy he would consume. Otherwise, he would not be able to escape and would not have the chance to set up a formation to trap him.
With two divine powers, this old monk was truly terrifying.
The All-Seeing Divine Power and God's Limbs were used together. Who could escape from his grasp?
If that was the case, he would have appeared in front of Siao Shi and himself long ago. He did not have to wait so long.
It seemed like he could not use both at the same time.
After some thought, Chu Li understood the reason. Both consumed a lot of inner energy and spirit. The old monk's inner energy could not support it, so he could not use both at the same time.
"Wah!" He spat out another mouthful of blood and wiped his mouth carelessly.
After a while. He had already changed his method of driving the force.
After the sixth fold of the Infinite Azure Sea Technique, he turned into High Duke Lu's fist force and drove it within his body. His power increased tremendously, but it was still far from the old monk's palm force.
This method was even more damaging to his meridians. If his meridians had not been strengthened, he would not have dared to use High Duke Lu's fist force.
In order to avoid the old monk, he had to first dissolve his internal energy. However, to dissolve such a pure and vast internal energy would take more than a few days.
He did not know how many days that formation could trap the old monk.
He did not know much about the Titanium Temple. However, they knew that they had a deep foundation and countless unique skills. It was not impossible for them to break the formation. Moreover, the formation was hastily set up and was not strong.
But no matter what, he could still be trapped for two or three days.
He had to make use of this time to set up another formation to completely trap him. Even if he could not be killed, he had to be trapped to death.
When he passed by a small town, he got some water and fruits. Dried rations, braised meat, and the like were wrapped in a cloth bag and set off again.
When he entered the array. Siao Shi was sitting cross-legged on the ground, motionless. Her face was pale and her breath was weak as if she could stop breathing at any time.
Chu Li was shocked. He quickly went up to her and pressed on her back. He let out a sigh of relief.
Siao Shi slowly opened her eyes that were like bottomless pools, "I thought you were going to leave me behind."
Chu Li quickly passed her a water bag, "I wouldn't dare!"
Her red lips were already white. Like a wilted flower, it was heart-wrenching to look at.
Siao Shi took the water bag but was not in a hurry to drink it.
Her clear eyes scanned his face and saw the faint scars. She understood that for his face to be injured like this, he must have suffered a lot.
Siao Shi took a sip of water and put it down, "Was that old monk very powerful?"
Her self-control was strong. She ignored her body's strong desire for water and only took a sip slowly.
Chu Li smiled bitterly, "As expected of someone from the Titanium Temple. He has God's Limbs and his cultivation level is deep. I am far from his level."
"God's Limbs?" Siao Shi was shocked, "Then how did you escape?"
God's Limbs was also known as Free Will Connection. It allowed one to cross space and appear anywhere in an instant. The boundless world became his back garden. He could go anywhere he wanted.
There were not many in the Titanium Temple who could cultivate this divine power. Being targeted by the old monk with God's Limbs, no one could escape.
"I trapped him with a formation." Chu Li sighed, "I don't think he can hold on for long. You should rest here and don't eat too much. I'll go set up another formation."
"Are you hurt?" Siao Shi asked.
She knew. Although he said it casually, it was not as easy as he looked. Looking at the injuries on his face and his unstable breathing, his pale face, it was obvious that he was heavily injured.
His injuries were not healed yet. He did not care about healing and wanted to return as soon as possible so that he would not starve and thirst.
No matter how cold and indifferent her heart was, she was touched.
Chu Li smiled, "It's alright."
Looking at her expression, he sighed helplessly. He could not say that he loved her because of his love for her.
"You can't hold on much longer. Heal yourself first," Siao Shi said.
Chu Li said, "Set up a formation first. We have to do it before he breaks it or else we won't be able to escape."
"… Alright, be careful." Siao Shi saw that he had made up his mind and knew that there was no point in trying to persuade him.
She opened her bag and found a piece of dry food. She chewed it slowly without losing her elegance.
Chu Li avoided Gu Yue's side and went to the other side of the mountain.
The Modesty Sword acted as a shovel again and moved a total of ten trees.
When he moved the trees, he spat out four mouthfuls of blood. The old monk's palm energy was reduced by one-tenth. The purity of his palm energy was even better than High Duke Lu. It was truly terrifying.
Looking up at the vast power descending from the void, landing on the formation and merging with the mountain, he was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
Such a formation was powerful enough to trap the old monk for eight to ten days and starve him to death.
—
The old monk sat cross-legged in the formation. He looked solemn. His right hand moved the prayer beads slower and slower. Finally, he opened his eyes and let out a long sigh.
He looked helpless and lowered his head to look at the Sarira prayer beads. He was hesitant.
It had been a day and a night. No matter how he planned, there was no way to escape. Sigh … please forgive me, Ancestral Master. I can only do this!
He sighed and put his palms together. He mumbled to himself and chanted a mantra. His hands formed a mudra.
His aura changed along with the mantra and mudra. It became more solemn and holy.
"Amitabha Buddha!" He chanted the name of Buddha and put the Sarira prayer beads back on his left wrist. He picked up a sarira with his right hand and gently crushed it.
The sarira turned into a five-colored light and shot a foot above his head. It formed a five-colored halo. It was round and shiny. It slowly descended and stood upright behind his head.
A ray of light descended from the sky and landed on the old monk.
The old monk's body gradually became transparent and turned into a glazed body, emitting a gentle light.
Chu Li finished setting up the formation and appeared in another formation. Siao Qi was stretching her back. She had eaten and wanted to move around, revealing her beautiful curves.
Chu Li smiled.
