Holding on to his collar, Fu Qingya then fluttered out of the main hall with Chu Li. In no time, they had disappeared from the Four Grand Elder’s sights. As they were leaving, he said to Chu Li, “Don’t worry, they won’t be able to visit you, you’ll have to stay there by yourself.”
He could tell that Chu Li did not want to meet the Four Elders.
Chu Li asked, “Sect Leader, where exactly is Ill Wind Valley? Why have I never been there?”
“It’s a stone room.” Fu Qingya added, “It’s not far from here, you’ll see when we’re there.”
“n.o.body will send me food?” Chu Li asked.
“There are enough items in the stone room for you to survive. You won’t die from hunger,” Fu Qingya answered.
Chu Li sighed. “Don’t tell me that I’ll be there alone?”
“You’ll be the only person there,” Fu Qingya replied. “Don’t worry, you won’t be lonely.”
“That’s great.” Chu Li continued to ask, “I would also like to know, Sect Leader, how did you cultivate to attain such an impressive body movement technique?”
“Constant effort yield sure success.” Fu Qingya explained, “If you can regain your martial arts in Ill Wind Valley, you’ll become like me… We’re here!”
Fu Qingya’s body movement technique was like lightning. It was so fast to the extent that Chu Li’s vision only went blur for a short while before they stopped.
Letting go of Chu Li, Fu Qingya introduced, “This is Ill Wind Valley.”
Chu Li felt icy cold as if he had arrived at an icehouse. In fact, it was colder than being in an icehouse.
When he turned his head to look at his surroundings, it seemed as if he was placed in an icehouse. It was a stone house that was around a hundred square meters filled with cold air, and everything was covered in a layer of frost.
Surprised, Chu Li questioned, “This is Ill Wind Valley?”
Fu Qingya nodded. “Why? Does it not look like it?”
Chu Li stated his concern, “Isn’t it a valley?”
“This is only a part of Ill Wind Valley. You’ll find out soon enough.” Fu Qingya mentioned, “There’s only one path here, which is right above you. If you can escape within 10 years, you’ll be deemed very capable and n.o.body will hunt you down.”
Chu Li was stunned. “Really?”
Fu Qingya nodded. “This is Ill Wind Valley’s rule.”
Chu Li looked up at the exit.
The stone room was empty apart from a bunch of solid food and jerky at the corner of the wall, as well as spring water that had been frozen into ice. Everything was covered in white due to the frost. Besides, there were also two luminous pearls that lit the room brightly.
Above him, the light was shone in from a palm-sized entrance that was ten meters away. Strange sounds were heard through the hole, accompanied by a white vapor that flowed toward the room.
Chu Li frowned. “Sect Leader, how did we get in?”
“Once one has attained a certain level in the Heavenly Demonic Power, they will be able to get in.” Fu Qingya further explained, “If you can achieve the mid-ninth level of Heavenly Demonic Power, and have better comprehension, you’ll be able to get out.”
Chu Li asked, “What if I fail to arrive at the ninth level?”
“Then you might freeze to death here.” Fu Qing added, “The chillness here penetrates your body to your bones. If you can’t cultivate your inner energy in a month time, you’ll be dead for sure!”
At once, Chu Li asked again, “Sect Leader, you want to kill me, don’t you?”
Fu Qingya answered, “I do want to kill you, but I’m also giving you a chance of survival. It’s up to you to seize the opportunity.”
“I will leave this place!” Determined, Chu Li uttered, “I will recover my martial art skills very quickly, then escape on my own!”
“If you can escape this place, I’ll forgive you past misdeeds!” Fu Qingya continued, “And you’ll still be a disciple of Heavenly Demonic Sect!”
“Alright!” Chu Li responded.
In a flash, Fu Qingya vanished.
When Chu Li looked up, he realized that Fu Qingya did not leave through the hole. Instead, he had gone through a void that was similar to G.o.d’s Limbs.
Chu Li furrowed his brows.
He wondered, ‘If I’m able to escape, Fu Qingya is still going to be a huge trouble. He’ll be able to find me anytime, it’s irksome.’
“Wu…” A strange sound that sounded like whimpers could be heard coming from the palm-sized hole.
The sound kept going on and eventually became so loud that it penetrated straight to his heart. Somehow, he began to feel frustrated and annoyed, so much so that a killing intent grew inside him.
Chu Li was extremely shocked as the whimpers had distracted him.
Even after being crippled of his martial art, he still had the four scriptures and the mirror. Especially the Omniscient Mirror and the Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture, they could calm him down in a way that he would not have doubts, and any anger or killing intent would be suppressed right away.
However, now that he was faced with the whimpers, his killing intents could not be suppressed at all. Instead, it was about to engulf him anytime.
Chu Li frowned.
Through the Omniscient Mirror, he did a scan within a 6.2 miles radius and realize that Fu Qingya had left. However, Chu Li was inside a mountain that looked like a hole was dug out of it, which was the cave that he was currently in.
In fact, the whimpers were natural and had the ability to frighten one’s soul and mind. It was truly odd.
Without Fu Qingya’s suppression, he could leave anytime. Yet in spite of that, he did not leave in a hurry.
He was looking for a way to restrain Fu Qingya’s Light-body Technique.
So, he began to ponder, ‘The Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture and the Sariras that I possess can both restrain divine powers. Is Fu Qingya’s body technique not a divine power? Or is my Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture level of attainment too weak for me to restrain him?’
Due to the endless whimpers, he became even more impatient and he was dying to kill someone.
He then sat with his legs crossed on the stone bed and placed his palms together — the same posture as the giant Buddha in the void of his mind. As he chanted the Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture, his body and mouth matched the giant Buddha’s, and his inner state entered it.
Instantly, he cast his own self aside and entered a peaceful realm.
As the giant Buddha began to chant the Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture at a higher speed, lily after lily entered its body. When the whimpers outside became louder, the giant Buddha’s chants of the Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture became increasingly faster.
Chu Li’s inner state was fully committed to the Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture that he did not bother about the other three scriptures.
After an unknown period of time, he woke up.
His heart had become tranquil and he was at peace. Thus, even though the whimpers still lingered around him, they were unable to sway him anymore.
In the void of his mind, a ring of light that appeared to be flickering in a white glaze was vaguely seen at the back of the giant Buddha.
He was elated. The ring of light was the physical appearance of the Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture attaining a high level, where the ring would be able to protect him from divine powers. Now, he was curious if Fu Qingya could get close to him next time.
When he thought about that, he suddenly had the urge to test if he could restrain Fu Qingya’s body movement technique.
After thinking for a while, he began to channel the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture.
Through the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture, his body weakened very quickly, so much so that he was only left with one breath and he would die anytime now. However, as he became weaker, he then channeled the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture in reverse.
Not knowing how much time had pa.s.sed, he finally woke up. When he took a look at his body, he smiled brightly.
Owing to the fact that he had been negated of the Heavenly Demonic Power earlier, his body remained as Zhe Ying. Now, he had finally returned to his original appearance. If he had failed to recover his martial art, he would not have regained his original state.
On his heart, a Heavenly Demonic Orb as tiny as dust could be seen. One would have neglected if at first glance if it did not contain such enormous energy. With that, his Heavenly Demonic Power had officially arrived at the ninth level.
Needless to say, the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture was beyond what he had expected. Initially, he thought that even if he had regained his martial art, he would not be able to reattain the Heavenly Demonic Power. Yet to his surprise, he did it.
Following that, the Heavenly Demon Scripture was recited even quicker in his mind to allow him to have a deeper comprehension of the Heavenly Demonic Power. He came to a sudden realization that he had to allow his Heavenly Demonic Orb to change again if he wanted to be like Fu Qingyan. His...o...b..would have to become so fine that it could not be seen through the naked eye although it was everywhere.
When he could achieve that, his Heavenly Demonic Orb would spread to areas like his Heavenly Demonic Realm. Then, he would be able to move about freely and he could appear anywhere.
