1349 Benefits Of The Temple, And The Source Of Desire

Xukongs suggestion to visit the Temple of the Four Guardians was enough to make Lin Mu determined. He was now fully intending on obtaining something from it, even if he didnt get a technique or skill.

But it did make Lin Mu interested in what kind of things they had.

What techniques and skills do they impart Senior? Lin Mu questioned.

It could be said that the Temple of the Four guardian has one of the biggest repertoire of Cultivation techniques, Qi skills and more in the entire universe. Disregarding the limits of the world a temple is located in, all of their libraries and stores can be said to be linked.

This allows them to disseminate techniques and skills with an efficiency that most sects cant even think of.

Of course, obtaining these techniques isnt free. One needs to exchange them with suitable merits. The temples dont even sell them in exchange for resources. After all, they have no such need for them.

All they want is their tasks and missions to be completed. Though people that are really devoted to wors.h.i.+ping them might also obtain suitable rewards. Xukong answered.

I see so I will have to do their missions. Lin Mu understood.

If they are available. These missions are often s.n.a.t.c.hed up quickly by cultivators. While those that are not completed are simply too difficult for most experts. So you will need luck, thats for sure. Xukong added.

And what about the tournament? Lin Mu asked again.

These are usually held at different times. But if one is being held, you will be bound to hear about it. Many experts from all over the world flock to it. Xukong replied.

Alright Ill have to see if luck favors me this time. Lin Mu muttered.

Though before you go searching for the Temple, I think its better to resolve something else. Xukong spoke in a serious tone.

Resolve what? Lin Mu raised his brows in confusion.

Its good that you can forget about it. If you can ignore that burning desire even now, that means you have more time. Xukongs voice became a bit relived.

Hearing this though, Lin Mu immediately recalled the burning desire and despair he had felt before. The feeling of something precious to him being stolen and the anger he had felt at that moment returned.

ARGH. Lin Mu though held it in this time, just letting out a m.u.f.fled grunt.

Good, good. As long as you can continuing managing it, you wont form a Heart Demon. Xukong said seeing Lin Mus actions.

Do you have any idea what that burning desire was, senior? Lin Mu questioned, realizing he had truly forgotten about that.

I dont know what really caused you to feel such a thing, but I do know that the consequence of it. You are now far more likely to develop a heart demon.

The best I can guess is that it might be a karmic link of some kind. I am not versed in divination nor in the Dao of Karma to decipher how you formed this. Or if someone else did it for you.

But I do know that you need to resolve it as soon as possible. It is not good to let it stay pending. Xukong answered.

The Dao of Karma was something Lin Mu had read about in the Lost Immortals memoirs. After all, the man had the broken fate physique and often wondered why he had an almost endless string of misfortune.

He knew there was some karma a.s.sociated with him, and tried to find a solution. He went to many experts that knew or were proficient in the Dao of Karma and yet he didnt find a proper solution.

The Dao of Karma was one of the most illusive Daos and also very difficult to comprehend. Those who could comprehend it fully held the fates of worlds in their hands. They merely needed to see where karma flowed and who owed what to change the tides of fortune.

It was a truly terrifying power.

Divination was somewhat similar to that and often utilized the Dao of Karma. Ultimately, though it was a type of a skill and had many applications. Finding someone that could do divination was a lot easier than finding someone proficient in the Dao of Karma.

After all, even the best Diviners were only taking the aid of Karma and couldnt fully grasp it. Those who could grasp it would go beyond their limits.

p-a-n-d-a-n-0-v-e-l(c)om Seems like Ill have to search for it first Lin Mu muttered, turning towards a particular direction.

Xukong noticed this and spoke, you can tell where it is?

Yes now that I was reminded of it, the feeling has become a lot more apparent. Lin Mu replied.

Thats not what I mean You are sensing it even in the Spatial Channel. Xukong reminded Lin Mu.

Oh, wait I am Lin Mu said as his eyes went to the ring on his hand.

Looks like you have your culprit. Xukong said. It was the ring all along

Lin Mu furrowed his brows not understanding why it had done so. Seeing that he could feel the link even in the void only meant that the ring was acting as a conduit for it. Otherwise he should not have felt the link.

Or rather more accurately, it should have felt direction less to Lin Mu. But since it had a particular direction, there was only two ways it would be possible. Either Lin Mus proficiency with s.p.a.ce had reached a level where he could directly spread his senses beyond it, or there was a tool working as an interface.

Lin Mu knew that he was still lacking in his proficiency with s.p.a.ce and could not do that. This only left the second option as viable the mysterious ring was behind it all.

What kind of reason would you have to make me think I lost something? Lin Mu couldnt help but question.

All he received in response though was silence from the ring.
