Chu Li returned to his courtyard in the High Duke's Public House and sat under the Glory's Will Tree to figure out the Heaven Killing Scripture.
Although Goddess Attraction Mountain was quiet and full of spiritual energy, it was safer to stay in his courtyard. As for the two ladies, they were in a good state and should not be disturbed. He estimated that they could cultivate in isolation for another two to three months.
The first stage of the Heaven Killing Scripture was to sense the existence of a strange power and control it.
This power was not the current inner energy nor was it spiritual energy. It was different from the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth. It existed between heaven and earth but could not be sensed. This was the power of time.
Because Chu Li had the Life and Death Scripture and the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture, he had a deep understanding of life and death. He could easily sense the power of time.
To practice this technique, one needed to be old enough to understand the changes of life and death, as well as the changes of time. It was very difficult for young people to reach this step. If they could understand it, then they could understand it. If they couldn't understand it, then they couldn't understand it.
Young people were full of life and did not know the shortness of life. They thought that life was long and there was a long time waiting for them. They were so far away from death that they could not see it.
It was almost impossible to feel the existence of time in this state.
Just as Chu Li was about to start his cultivation, he suddenly felt a jolt in his heart. He disappeared from his courtyard and arrived at a forest outside of Chong Ming Town. Fa Yuan was standing under a jujube tree, lost in thought. His grey cowl fluttered in the wind, exuding an aura of dust.
When Chu Li appeared, he turned around and bowed. "Brother Chu, sorry to disturb you."
Chu Li asked, "What is it?"
If it was not urgent, Fa Yuan would not have come in a hurry.
Fa Yuan sighed. "All the Hearts of Asura in the Demon Suppression Tower have risen to the sky. None are left."
Chu Li frowned. "Even if the Enlightened Master's remains were released?"
"Yes." Fa Yuan nodded lightly and said, "Honorable Master Liao Ming's remains have already been placed on the tower to conceal the mysteries of heaven, but it's still useless. I saw with my own eyes that these Hearts of Asura rose into the sky, directly passing through the Demon Subduing Tower and disappearing into the sky. Then, the Divine Gate opened to receive them.
Chu Li's face turned serious. "The Asura Boundary has made a move."
Fa Yuan said, "I have a bad feeling about this."
Chu Li frowned. "What do you think?"
"I'm afraid that even the Asuras will descend." Fa Yuan let out a sigh and said, "Although the descent of the Deva has caused a great disturbance in the world, there are still some scruples after all, and they dare not be too presumptuous. But if it's Asura …"
"Amitabha." He shook his head gently, put his palms together, and chanted the name of Buddha. "That will be a catastrophe for all living beings."
Chu Li nodded. "Does the Tempest Temple have a way to deal with this?"
Fa Yuan sighed. "Compared to the Outland, the Tempest Temple is nothing."
"That's true." Chu Li said, "If that's the case, we can only deal with it carefully. Don't worry about the catastrophe of all living beings for now. Think about your Tempest Temple first. Once the Asuras descend, the Tempest Temple will definitely be a thorn in their side. They'll be the first to destroy it!"
"That's right." Fa Yuan nodded lightly. "That's why I'm here to inform you in advance. When the time comes, I hope that Brother Chu will be able to assist me."
"Of course." Chu Li said, "We're in the same boat. Neither of us can escape. They want to deal with me too!"
He had killed quite a few Asuras, and had even taken control of a group of them.
"Crack!" One of the prayer beads on Fa Yuan's chest suddenly cracked, and a crisp sound could be heard.
Fa Yuan's expression changed slightly. He quickly said, "Brother Chu, this is bad!"
Chu Li said, "Let's go!"
The two of them disappeared almost at the same time. The next moment, they appeared in the Tempest Temple.
The chanting of scriptures was endless. The Tempest Temple was bathed in a solemn Buddha's Light. Chu Li could see an invisible golden light shrouding the sky above the Tempest Temple, enveloping the entire temple.
However, at this time, the golden light was shaking. It was as if an invisible force was colliding with the Buddha's Light. Moreover, it was much thinner than what Chu Li had seen before. It was obvious that it was destroying the Buddha's Light.
Chu Li and Fa Yuan appeared on top of the pagoda where Fa Yuan was previously sealed as a god. They looked down at their surroundings. Chu Li pointed to the southeast and said, "Over there!"
Fa Yuan nodded. The two of them disappeared from the pagoda and appeared above a forest in the next moment.
A section of the courtyard wall of the Great Tempest Temple was hidden in the pine forest. At this moment, two middle-aged men were waving their palms and gently patting the red courtyard wall. They were soundless and extremely gentle, but every palm hit the Buddha light.
Their palms were different from human palms. They were unusually long and thin. Their fingers were curled like eagle claws. Their nails were especially long and dark as if they were cast from black iron. They shone with a strange luster.
Chu Li and Fa Yuan stood in the void silently, looking down at the two men.
At a glance, the two middle-aged men were shrouded in a red light. Their bodies could not be seen clearly. Chu Li could only vaguely see their silhouettes. However, a strange chill filled the air, causing him to unconsciously take a step back.
This was the feeling of meeting a spirit beast. It was as if he had met his natural enemy.
Fa Yuan turned his head to look at him.
Chu Li sighed. "It should be Asura from the Outland."
His voice startled the two middle-aged men who were focused on waving their palms. They looked up and their faces were still gloomy. They only glanced at Chu Li and Fa Yuan coldly and continued waving their palms.
When the Buddha's Light touched their palms, white bones were exposed. Their flesh and blood were melted away. It looked eerie and terrifying.
However, the two men did not seem to care about this abnormality. It was as if their palms did not belong to them. No matter how the Buddha's Light melted their palms, they would immediately recover. Then, when they touched the Buddha's Light, their flesh and blood would be melted away.
The cycle continued and the Buddha's Light became dimmer.
Chu Li frowned.
The palm technique of the two Asuras seemed ordinary but it was definitely not an ordinary palm technique. It was specially used to restrain the Buddha's Light. The Tempest Temple's Buddha's Light was not so easily depleted. It was accumulated over thousands of years.
Fa Yuan also noticed the abnormality and said, "Brother Chu, I'm going to make my move."
"We'll take one each," Chu Li said. "It's better to be careful."
"Amitabha." Fa Yuan slowly chanted the name of Buddha. "Almsgivers, please stop!"
As he spoke, a purplish golden light flashed around his body. The Sentient Menace was activated and he floated towards one of the middle-aged men like a Luohan. Then, he gently slapped his palm down. His palm was purplish golden.
"Hmph, stupid monk, you deserve to die!" The thinner middle-aged man sneered and waved his palm.
His right palm, which was like an eagle's claw, met Fa Yuan's attack gently and silently.
Fa Yuan took a step back. The purplish golden light around his body flowed continuously, but the color of his palm changed. A layer of black energy crawled up his purplish golden palm and quickly spread. In the blink of an eye, it climbed from his palm to his wrist and continued to spread upward.
Chu Li frowned.
The aura around the two middle-aged men suddenly stagnated, making it hard for them to breathe. A strange, turbulent energy drilled into their bodies, trying to corrode and harm them. The pine trees around them quickly withered and turned yellow. Finally, they were bare and lifeless.
Chu Li took a step forward and appeared in front of the other middle-aged man. He lightly slapped his palm, using the spiritual energy of the Spirit Tiger.
"Bang!" The middle-aged man went forward and staggered a step back.
His expression changed. Red light burst out from his body and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a ball of flame. His figure could no longer be seen clearly. Only the burning red light was flickering.
