Chapter 929: Womb

He circulated the thirty-six energy-nurturing forms slowly, forming blade energy after blade energy that eventually flowed into his dantian. The blade energies were as sharp as blades. They were small blades that gradually gathered into a big blade in his dantian.

He could clearly feel the pressure in his dantian, as well as vague feelings of pain that came together. The more he cultivated the thirty-six energy-nurturing forms, the more painful it felt.

He estimated that the current blade energies he possessed allowed him to shoot five blades, whereby all blade energy would be gone after. If he were to cultivate them again, it would require half a day’s time. In this respect, the pros and cons of the Single Slice of the Universe were clear.

As time ticked away, the two of them were still nowhere to be seen.

Chu Li was unbothered as he realized that he had underestimated patrols in the past.

They were still quite powerful, especially in their escaping abilities. All of them had a trump card that allowed them to escape during crucial moments.

His impression of the disciples of the Holy Church of Light remained in Ji Dynasty’s time. Back then, the disciples he encountered in Fairy’s Capital displayed their Secret Technique of Great Light very easily and headed to the Ultimate Land of Bliss just like that.

After entering the Holy Church of Light, he realized that he did not fully understand them. Most of the Holy Church of Light’s disciples were not actually that extreme. The ones he met in the Fairy’s Capital were simply sacrificial warriors.

Those are the ones who sought the Great Light Scripture and were prepared to die anytime. Once uncovered, they would be martyrized instantly in order to prevent them from exposing their purpose, ruining the ultimate plan of the Holy Church that had been going on for hundreds of years.

Now, it seemed like their deaths were worthy as the second half of Great Light Scripture was not attained.

The Secret Technique of Great Light was extremely terrifying in the sense that even if one did not intend to die, one could still unleash an immense power that allowed one to flee.

After practicing the thirty-six energy-nurturing forms for three more times, he finally heard footsteps. Zhou Jinchun and Ji Xin staggered into the forest by holding onto one another. They sat on the ground, curled up into a ball, and moaned painfully.

Chu Li took a look at them before asking, “Where is he?”

“Motherf*cker, the fella with the surname Wen is very crafty, we couldn’t lure him!” Zhou Jinchun said bitterly before cursing, “Just when we have lured him halfway, he suddenly turned around. We tried our best to lure him back again, but he turned around again!”

Ji Xin sighed. “He saw through us from the start, and was purposely teasing us, how despicable!”

“Didn’t he try to kill you?” Chu Li asked.

“He doesn’t have the abilities to do that!” Zhou Jinchun scoffed.

Ji Xin added, “He’s also afraid that we’ll fight with all of our strength. It won’t matter if it’s just one of us, but he doesn’t dare to act rashly when there’s two of us. He kept trying to exhaust us of energy so that we won’t be able to use our secret technique. That is when he’ll kill us!”

“Where is he now?” Chu Li asked again.

“Who knows!” Zhou Jinchun sighed. “That sissy is too detestable!”

“Who’s a sissy!” A furious roar was heard.

Wen Tingdao walked into the forest slowly.

In a green outfit, Wen Tingdao who held a fan in his hand appeared to have a graceful bearing. He glared at Zhou Jinchun madly, “You with the surname Zhou, how dare you call me a sissy?”

“You’re a sissy!” Zhou Jinchun commented disdainfully, “How can a man use any form of fragrance? You’re quite an interesting one!”

Wen Tingdao cast a sidelong glance at him. “It’s to prevent mosquito bites, you really lack knowledge! … You’re luring me here to let Zhao Dahe fight me, right? You could’ve just told me, why go through all that trouble? I was beginning to worry about you!”

Ji Xin humped. “You’re not such a coward after all. How dare you come over knowing that there’s an ambush here!”

“Zhao Dahe is a phoenix without feathers now, what’s that to be afraid of?” Wen Tingdao stared at Chu Li, “I heard that you just fought Monk Zhi Shan from the Reincarnation Temple? To have escaped from him, you must be pretty capable!”

“You know of Monk Zhi Shan too?” Chu Li asked, “Is he so famous?”

“Among the disciples of the Reincarnation Temple who deciphered the Womb Mystery, he’s the second one.” Wen Tingdao further commented, “For someone like you to escape from Zhi Shan, you’re really lucky!”

“The Womb Mystery?” Chu Li frowned. “He deciphered the Womb Mystery?”

Being a Buddhist disciple, he naturally knew about the Womb Mystery. It was similar to the Meng Po Soup that was known among folks in the world. During reincarnation, everything in one’s past life would be wiped away, leaving only a little of one’s nature and divine light, which was also one’s Buddha-nature.

Solving the Womb Mystery meant remembered everything from one’s past life.

Chu Li came to a sudden realization of why Monk Zhi Shan had such a strong spiritual force. It was because he deciphered the Womb Mystery! He thought to himself, ‘No wonder I always felt that Monk Zhi Shan was very strange, and can’t be seen through. It turns out that he’s deciphered the Womb Mystery!’

“What’s so odd about the Womb Mystery?” Wen Tingdao shook his head. “Looks like you’ve been a frog under a well too, you’re not aware of how powerful the Reincarnation Temple is, are you? The Holy Church of Light may be powerful, but is still inferior to the Reincarnation Temple!”

Chu Li disagreed. “We’re not inferior to the Reincarnation Temple. The Great Light Scripture is now complete, and it can go up against any sect in the world!”

“Boast away!” Wen Tingdao sneered. “The monks from the Reincarnation Temple aren’t your match, the old fellas from the Holy Church of Light will have to leave the mountain to do that!”

“Sword Moon Sect can’t beat the Reincarnation Temple too?”

“Hmph, defeating them is simply a piece of cake!”

“You’re just singing your own praises.” Chu Li shook his head. “Forget about the solar chakram, how do you solve the lunar chakram?”

“Would you like to know?” Wen Tingdao suddenly laughed out loud. “Kill them both, and I’ll let you know how.”

Infuriated, Zhou Jinchun said, “You with the surname Wen, hand us the Common Knotgrass, and we’ll spare you!”

“Spare me?” Upon hearing that, Wen Tingdao burst out laughing again. “Haha! Haha!”

Without warning, Chu Li swung both his hands.

“Tss, tss!” Two whistling sounds were heard, followed by two low and loud noises from the deep forest.

Instantly, Wen Tingdao’s face changed. Chu Li attacked again.

Just as Wen Tingdao was about to disappear, his blur figure suddenly became clear again, and a penetrating cut could be seen on his thigh, revealing his bones inside.

By then, Chu Li was only five steps away from him. He shot another blade out, which Wen Tingdao was unable to dodge no matter how fast his body technique was.

Afterward, Chu Li took another step forward and shot another blade.

Wen Tingdao moaned as another cut could be seen on his other thigh.

While he forced himself to stand still, he was no longer able to perform his light-body technique.

Elated, Ji Xin was going to pull his sword out to kill him.

However, Chu Li wielded his sword before he could.

The light from his sword flashed as Wen Tingdao’s left index and middle fingers were seen falling to the ground.

Next, Chu Li put his sword back into his scabbard. “Three days later, place the Common Knotgrass here. Then ten days later, I’ll place a Detachment Pill here. After consuming the Detachment Pill, your fingers will grow again!”

Wen Tingdao quickly retrieved a bottle of medicine and applied it on his fingers to stop the bleeding. He then frowned at Chu Li.

He did not expect the turn of events.

Since Ji Xin and Zhou Jinchun were no different from being handicapped, he could not be bothered about them. In fact, two of his senior brothers had already snuck their way here. They were in hiding and were ready to attack at any time.

If he joined hands with his senior brothers, taking out Zhao Dahe would not be a problem at all. Since they were being ambushed, he wanted to lay another ambush on them to see whose was better.

That being said, things somehow turned out to be different. Clearly, his senior brothers were hit. Now that his fingers were cut, and that his thighs were injured, there was no way they could escape unscathed.

Chu Li added. “I always keep my promises. We only want the Common Knotgrass to refine some Detachment Pills for a senior sister, her arm has been cut off!”

“… Alright!” Wen Tingdao responded.
