Song Wu watched as he wolfed down the food and shook her head. It seemed like he was starving. She could not help but feel pity for him and her gaze softened.
Chu Li quickly finished all the food and looked up at Song Wu. "Thank you, Sister Song."
"You …" Song Wu shook her head.
She did not know what to say. The ignorant were fearless. A newborn calf was not afraid of a tiger. He was the first disciple who dared to do this not long after he entered the pavilion. He was not afraid of his future being uncertain and being suppressed to mediocrity.
Chu Li put the bowl and chopsticks back into the box and sighed. "Sister Song, do I have to eat once every three days?"
"You know?"
"I guessed."
"You have angered Master's Junior Lee but I will send one meal a day. Three meals a day is impossible." Song Wu said. "Just bear with it."
She knew that Li Chengfeng would not remember such trivial things. He would forget it in a blink of an eye. Even if he knew, he would not blame her. After all, it was not wrong to talk about being in the same pavilion.
Chu Li nodded. "Thank you, Sister Song."
Song Wu said, "Facing the wall doesn't feel good, does it?"
"It's alright." Chu Li pretended not to care and smiled. "I realized that the Heavenly Heart Technique has improved a little. It is indeed a good place to cultivate."
"It's good that you think so." Song Wu pursed her lips and smiled. "God's Eye Peak is the best place to cultivate the Heavenly Heart Technique. This is also the most important principle that the Prophecy Pavilion teaches its disciples. Yin and Yang coexist, pros and cons. Facing the wall is hard but it contains opportunities. It all depends on whether you can grasp it and if you can be ruthless!"
Chu Li said, "It is indeed not easy to cultivate."
To cultivate the Heavenly Heart Technique under such painful circumstances, it required an extremely strong will and a strong spirit. Without these two, the pain would destroy one's consciousness. They would not be able to cultivate and the longer they faced the wall, the more they would regress until they had a mental breakdown and became a cripple.
Song Wu said, "How long will Brother Xu have to face the wall?"
"A year."
"A year." Song Wu shook her head and sighed, looking at him with pity.
Facing the wall for a year was a heavy punishment. Most people would not be able to endure it. If they were not careful, they might even be crippled. It seemed like Junior Uncle Li was really angry, to actually give such a heavy punishment.
"I will plead with the Pavilion Master." Song Wu glanced around and said in a low voice, "See if it can be waived."
"Thank you, Senior Sister Song." Chu Li nodded.
The Xu Hun that he was disguised as had a delicate and pretty appearance, which was very attractive to women. However, most of the disciples of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets had outstanding looks. Song Wu did not help him because of his looks, but because he was young and was usually a loner. He was pitiful to be alone.
Song Wu took the lunchbox and left gracefully.
Chu Li seemed to be deep in thought as he looked in the direction where she had left. Then, he looked in the direction of the Soaring Grass.
He muttered to himself. Just how many Ascension Grass did he have to get? Should he take them all at once?
By controlling his Spiritual Qi, he could cause all of the Ascension Grass to enter a state of suspended animation. If he buried all of them, he would be able to obtain all of them. However, doing so would definitely alarm everyone in the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets. Perhaps they would use the Heaven Peering Technique and discover that he was up to no good.
He thought about it and finally decided to withdraw. With his current strength, it was better to keep a low profile to avoid getting himself killed.
These four Ascension Grass were enough without alarming too many people. Li Chengfeng and the others thought it was an accident and did not think about using the Heaven Peering Technique.
He suddenly disappeared on the spot and performed the Deva Shedding Technique at the same time. In a breath, he left the God Eye Peak and arrived at the foot of the Cloud Dream Mountain. He found the four Ascension Grass and returned to the Yi Public House's island.
Xue was patrolling the island. Sensing his presence, she came over in a fluttering white dress.
Chu Li and Xue planted the four Ascension Grass next to the Glory's Will Tree where the Spiritual Qi was the most abundant.
The Ascension Grass loved Spiritual Qi. The more abundant the Spiritual Qi, the more prosperous the Ascension Grass would grow.
The Ascension Grass quickly woke up from its state of suspended animation with the Life and Death Scripture. Under the urging of the Life and Death Scripture, it quickly took root and merged with the aura of the Glory's Will Tree.
Even without the Life and Death Scripture, under the aura of the Glory's Will Tree, the Ascension Grass' ripening time would be greatly shortened. This was the magical effect of the Glory's Will Tree.
After he was done, Chu Li hurriedly returned to the God Eye Peak.
Once again, he sat on the God Eye Peak and looked around. There was nothing out of the ordinary. No one should have noticed his departure, so he continued to resist the scorching sun.
According to his original plan, he would bring the original Xu Hun here to replace him when it was late at night. Xu Hun would not speak carelessly and would act as if nothing had happened. Otherwise, his future would be over.
However, he changed his mind now because this was the best place to cultivate the Heavenly Heart Technique. Cultivating in isolation here could quickly increase the level of the Heavenly Heart Technique. In less than three days, he had already cultivated to the third level.
Once the cultivation level of the Heavenly Heart Technique improved greatly, the power of the Heavenly Heart Technique would be astonishing after he cultivated the Heavenly Heart Technique.
More importantly, the advancement of the Heavenly Heart Technique would improve the Nature Restoration Manifestation and even increase the power of the Omniscient Mirror and the Life and Death Scripture.
He could already feel the improvement of the Heavenly Heart Technique on the Life and Death Scripture. Naturally, he would not let go of this precious cultivation ground.
—
The next morning, Chu Li opened his eyes, covered in cold sweat. He saw Song Wu looking at him with pity.
Song Wu was dressed in a black gown. Her skin was as white as snow and her eyes were as clear as water. She stood in the golden light of the morning, looking radiant.
"Senior Sister Song." Chu Li fist saluted.
Song Wu sat cross-legged in front of him. A delicate fragrance wafted over. She sighed softly. "Junior Brother Xu, are you able to hold on?"
"I'm fine." Chu Li nodded.
Song Wu said, "I've already pleaded with the pavilion leader. The pavilion leader agreed to reduce it to three months."
"Three months." Chu Li smiled. "Thank you, Senior Sister Song."
Song Wu shook her head. "I originally planned to reduce it to one month. Unfortunately, the pavilion leader did not agree. He said that Master's Junior Li is very angry. I can't reduce it too lightly. Otherwise, Master's Junior Li will not forgive me."
Chu Li said, "Three months is short enough."
"Then you have to hold on. Don't collapse," Song Wu said.
She saw that Chu Li's face was as pale as paper. His aura was weak as if he could not hold on any longer.
This was only the third day. If this continued, something would really happen. Junior Brother Xu might be crippled.
Chu Li smiled. "I can hold on."
Song Wu nodded, but she was not confident. Her pair of beautiful eyes looked at Chu Li up and down. She showed a worried expression.
She thought for a while and took out a porcelain bottle. She looked around and quickly stuffed it into his hand. "If you really can't hold on, eat one."
"This?" Chu Li was surprised.
"Small Energy Pill." Song Wu said softly. "It's not a precious pill, but it's very effective in recovering inner energy and spirit."
Chu Li kept it in his sleeve and nodded. He did not thank her.
He had mixed feelings. He did not know if he would become enemies with Senior Sister Song in the future. If they were to fight, he did not know how to face them.
"Senior Sister Song." Chu Li pondered. "Is our pavilion leader's Heaven Peering Technique the best?"
"Yes." Song Wu said slowly. "In terms of Heaven Peering Technique, the pavilion leader is the best. The pavilion leader's cultivation level is not the highest, but his Heaven Peering Technique is the strongest."
"Oh?" Chu Li smiled. "The Heaven Peering Technique can see the fate of others. Then, can the pavilion leader see the fate of our Divine Prophecy Pavilion?"
