Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra. Flying Temple’s true technique. Absorbing purple qi in the morning and red clouds in the evening. Condensing the 5 elements to produce the qi of the great sun. It would burn brightly and everything.
Vajra Technique. Vajra Temple’s body refining divine art. 12 levels in total. After cultivation, the body was comparable to a magic treasure. It was indestructible, and its divine power was endless.
Both manuals were incomplete. It only consisted the upper half.
However, these were all decent cultivation arts.
Lu Li recognized them at a glance.
The Flying Temple was one of the 3 great Daoist temples in the world. It was located in the east, and ruled over the spiritual domain.
The Vajra Temple was one of the 3,000 Buddhist sects in the west.
In today’s world, the good ones thrived. Under the joint suppression of the Daoist and Buddhist sects, the Demonic sect could only live in the Myriad Devils Mountain. They were struggling to survive, and they did not even dare to leave the sect.
Therefore, there was no future in the Demonic sect.
Lu Li really wanted to escape the Demonic sect and go to the Daoist sect to train. However, the Myriad Devils Mountain was far away from Daoist sect. Without a Jin Dan stage cultivation base, there was no way he could fly out.
It was better for Lu Li to cultivate some techniques first.
However, which one should he cultivate first?
Lu Li looked out of the window. The sky was bright with starlight and the galaxy was dazzling. 3 golden moons hung above the sky, illuminating the world.
It was night time.
Thus, Lu Li could only cultivate the Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra tomorrow morning.
He could only cultivate the Vajra Technique.
With that, Lu Li sat cross-legged on the stone bed and stuck the jade slip of the Vajra Technique to his forehead. As he silently chanted the incantation, he positioned himself and began his training.
Soon, there was a ding sound rang out.
A system notification popped up.
[Congratulations, host. You have learned the Vajra technique.].
[Vajra Technique: Level 1 (Progress 1%)].
[Your Vajra Technique is very satisfied with your strong will. Cultivation effect increased by 50%, and your progress is increased by 1%.]
Just as Lu Li put down the jade slip, another system notification popped up.
As expected!
He was suitable to cultivate the orthodox technique!
Lu Li’s expression lit up.
Without any hesitation, he picked up the jade slip again and began to study it.
After an unknown period of time, a notification sounded in his mind again.
[Your Vajra Technique is more satisfied with you because of your hard work in comprehending the technique. The effect of your cultivation has increased by 80%, and your progress has increased by 3%.]
Lu Li’s eyes lit up.
“System!”
After muttering to himself, the system interface popped up.
Host: Lu Li.
Vajra Technique: Level 1 (Progress 5%).
In less than one night, the progress of that technique had already surpassed the 3 months of cultivating the Heart-Shattering Palm technique.
As such, he be able to cultivate the first level of the technique in 20 days, right?
If the first level of the Vajra Technique had been perfected. His bones and strength would be very strong.
It was enough for him!
However, if he cultivated the orthodox technique in the Demonic sect, would he be killed by a single palm strike from them?
Lu Li could not help but feel a little worried.
However, he did not think much about it. If he could not pass the trial of the Demonic Devil a month later, he would still have to die.
He would die either way, so he had to train first!
Lu Li calmed his heart and continued to study the cultivation method behind the Vajra Technique.
Then… he fell asleep.
When he woke up the next day, he opened the system log to take a look.
[Blood-Devouring Demonic Technique, Heart-Shattering Palm Technique, Seven Kills Fist Technique. Because you found something new and fancy it, they aren’t satisfied with you. Hence, your cultivation has all regressed.]

[After a night of cultivation, your Vajra Technique’s progress has increased by 3%.]
[Because your Vajra Technique did not hear the Buddhist scriptures, your mood is low, and you have decided to stop cultivating for a day.]
No!
Lu Li just started to smile, but when he saw the last record, his face suddenly became terrible.
These techniques were too sensitive!
They would actually go on strike?
Lu Li’s face was a little awful.
If this went on, he might not even be able to cultivate the first level of the vajra technique for a month.
However, it was just a Buddhist scriptures. He knew it!
Lu Li’s expression became serious. He sat on the stone bed and formed a lotus seal. His lips moved and he began to recite the Buddhist scriptures silently, “When the bodhisattva Avalokiteśvara had deeply understood the supreme wisdom, he realized that the 5 aggregates making up a person were but an illusion, and with this he was delivered from all sorrow and suffering…”
That was the Heart Sutra.
It was the only Buddhist scripture that Lu Li knew.
In the past, when he was developing the game program, and he could not find any bugs, he would be so angry that he would explode. At that moment, he would recite the Heart Sutra silently to regulate his emotions.

After a long time, he could recite the Heart Sutra fluently.
The moment he finished memorizing the Heart Sutra.
West. The Buddhist Kingdom.
Among the 3,000 Buddhists sects, the statues of the buddha, arhat, and bodhisattva that were worshiped in the Mahavira Hall started to tremble violently.
Then, the statues of the buddha shot out an extremely thick golden light at the same time. It shot up into the sky and fused with the 9 heavens, forming an enormous godly figure.
It was the Supreme Buddha!
In an instant, the light was boundless, and it covered the sky and earth.
Among the 3,000 Buddhists sects, all the cultivators were alarmed. They flew up in unison and bowed toward the Supreme Buddha in the sky.
“Amitabha!”
The most shocked and excited were none other than the Buddhist monks from the Great Thunderclap Temple.
In the Great Thunderclap Temple, the 3 divine monks had already appeared.
Looking at the Supreme Buddha in the sky and the countless statues of buddha, bodhisattva, and arhat in the Buddhist Kingdom, the 3 divine monks’ pupils trembled slightly. They had already lost their composure.
Soon, the statues regained their calm, and the light dissipated.
The Supreme Buddha also slowly faded and disappeared.
“Buddhas are crying out in unison, and the Supreme Buddha has appeared. I didn’t expect that I would be able to see such a phenomenon in my lifetime.”
One of the white-browed monks sighed with emotion.
“This means that our Buddhist sect is thriving! If it’s not the reincarnation of a Buddha, then there’s a Buddhist scripture that has appeared!”
Another tall divine monk said solemnly.
“The Buddha is in the south!”
Finally, an ugly, short divine monk looked into the distance and slowly uttered 6 words.
The moment these words were said, the entire Buddhist Kingdom fell silent.
The Myriad Devils Mountain was in the south!
It was the territory of the Demonic sect!
If the Demonic sect were to find the reincarnation of the Buddha first or find that Buddhist scripture, then that would be the greatest misfortune for the Buddhist sects!
“The Demonic sect is hiding in the Myriad Devils Mountain to recuperate. It’s time to destroy them.”
“Amitabha, the Demonic sect must be destroyed!”
“Then contact the Daoist sect and prepare to attack the Demonic sect.”
The 3 divine monks looked at each other and made up their minds.
“Also…”
The white-browed divine monk’s gaze was deep. “Send the Buddhist disciples into the Myriad Devils Mountain to secretly search for the reincarnation of the Buddha and the Buddhist scripture! We must not let the Demonic sect find them first!”

…
At this moment, countless pieces of news spread from the Buddhist Kingdom.
The Central Plains Daoist sect.
A languid and beautiful woman slowly opened her beautiful eyes and yawned.
Her gaze was as cold as the moon.
She raised her eyelids slightly and looked to the west as her embroidered brows slightly furrowed.
Then, her gaze shifted to the south.
“The Myriad Devils Mountain, huh…”
Her embroidered brows furrowed even more tightly.
At the same time.
The overseas islands. The demons in the abyss. As well as the various Demonic sects in the Myriad Devils Mountain.
The world that had been peaceful for a long time was surging with undercurrents at this moment. The various large factions were beginning to stir.
However, at this moment, the main culprit that stirred up the world, Lu Li, was in his cave and was extremely excited.
That was because the notifications of vajra technique was flooding the screen.
[Your Vajra Technique has entered a state of enlightenment because you listened to the Buddhist scriptures.]
[Progress increased by 2%]
[Progress increased by 3%]
[Progress increased by 2%]
…
[Progress increased by 4%]
There was a ding sound rang out.
It was extremely clear and loud.
[Congratulations, host. You have broken through to the second level of the Vajra Technique]
This was not the end.
An even more pleasant notification popped up.
[Congratulations, host. Your Vajra Technique has been greatly enlightened by listening to the Buddhist scriptures and has evolved into the Indestructible Divine Technique.]
As soon as the voice ended, a shocking power surged out of his stomach and spread through his meridians.
At the same time, his body crackled with the sound of bones and tendons exploding.
His body seemed to inflate.
Lu Li’s strength began to increase explosively!
500 kg.
1,000 kg.
…
3,000 kg.
…
8,000 kg.
…
10,000 kg!
12,000 kg!
Divine power!
