1349 Benefits Of The Temple, And The Source Of Desire
Xukong’s suggestion to visit the Temple of the Four Guardians was enough to make Lin Mu determined. He was now fully intending on obtaining sothing from it, even if he didn’t 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 can’t even think of.
Of course, obtaining these techniques isn’t free. One needs to exchange them with suitable rits. The temples don’t 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 worshiping 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 snatched up quickly by cultivators. While those that are not completed are simply too difficult for most experts. So you will need luck, that’s for sure.” Xukong added.
“And what about the tournant?” Lin Mu asked again.
“These are usually held at different tis. 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... I’ll have to see if luck favors this ti.” Lin Mu muttered.
“Though... before you go searching for the Temple, I think it’s better to resolve sothing else.” Xukong spoke in a serious tone.
“Resolve what?” Lin Mu raised his brows in confusion.
“It’s good that you can forget about it. If you can ignore that burning desire even now, that ans you have more ti.” Xukong’s voice beca a bit relived.
Hearing this though, Lin Mu imdiately recalled the burning desire and despair he had felt before. The feeling of sothing precious to him being stolen and the anger he had felt at that mont returned.
“ARGH.” Lin Mu though held it in this ti, just letting out a muffled grunt.
“Good, good. As long as you can continuing managing it, you won’t form a Heart Demon.” Xukong said seeing Lin Mu’s actions.
“Do you... have any idea what that... burning desire was, senior?” Lin Mu questioned, realizing he had truly forgotten about that.
“I don’t 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 so kind. I am not versed in divination nor in the Dao of Karma to decipher how you ford this. Or if soone 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 sothing Lin Mu had read about in the Lost Immortal’s moirs. 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 so karma associated 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 didn’t 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 rely needed to see where karma flowed and who owed what to change the tides of fortune.
It was a truly terrifying power.
Divination was sowhat similar to that and often utilized the Dao of Karma. Ultimately, though it was a type of a skill and had many applications. Finding soone that could do divination was a lot easier than finding soone proficient in the Dao of Karma.
After all, even the best Diviners were only taking the aid of Karma and couldn’t fully grasp it. Those who could grasp it would go beyond their limits.
“Seems like I’ll 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 beco a lot more apparent.” Lin Mu replied.
“That’s not what I an... 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 ant 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 Mu’s proficiency with Space 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 space 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 think I lost sothing?’ Lin Mu couldn’t help but question.
All he received in response though was silence from the ring.
