The Way of The Dao

"As a result, he finally transcended; becoming an Immortal and disappearing from that world as he ascended to the higher plane..."

The girls' eyes were opened with shock at hearing this last one when in their minds they couldn't help but wonder if he really is a...

However, observing the silent and calm gesture that Yun Mengxin was giving them, they did not say a word, waiting for Ling Tian to continue with the story.

It did not take long for Ling Tian to remember and continue speaking.

"Once that young man ascended into that totally unknown world, he began to look for a way to increase his strength again, but he would have to be careful as he was very weak at the time.

The immense resources that his storage ring had, a big part had been passed on to the two girls before he sent them away so that both would be saved while he sacrificed his life for them, while the remaining part was left to his disciples so that they could be cultivated more quickly and with some ease so that they would not have to risk so much to the point of losing their lives in searching for cultivation resources. Thus he now no longer had the resources to rapidly increase his strength.

Once he knew the basics of that great world, as well as the new realms he would have to overcome, that young man began to travel to become stronger.

As time went by, he also got some curious information about a possible clue of his real family related to a great recognized family that was the owner of a famous Palace of that world.

Unfortunately, that family disappeared along with other families a long time ago before he arrived in that world, therefore, he could not obtain more information about it, so he focused mainly on increasing his power.

Since he felt that he could get into a lot of trouble, he decided to use some objects to hide his face and identity, but he would have to get something much better because if he met someone very powerful they would be able to see through his hiding.

Ironically, it seemed that destiny really liked to play with him by bringing him bad luck during his life several times, as he started to be quickly pursued by countless Immortals for various reasons while he was looking for resources. They all coveted the objects he had obtained shortly after when it could not go unnoticed by others, thus earning an 'inevitable death'.

Quickly, he was almost cornered by one of those powerful cultivators who wanted to take his belongings when he was inflicted with a horrible wound and almost died because of the great gap in strength between them.

But miraculously, he was able to find a natural teleportation formation in his escape and without thinking he made it work and let himself be caught by its light, teleporting himself to an unknown place. Because of his knowledge and learning from studying these formations, he was able to access them by repairing them.

He thought that most likely this formation would send him away from the previous place and make him appear in another part of the world, but was surprised when he realized that he had apparently been teleported to a strange place, obtaining the same strange feeling like long ago when he was taken to the first Dead World where there was no human life.

The young man quickly explored that small world and found some great natural treasures that were about to disappear, either by mixing with the energy of that world or by getting lost in the unknown void.

In this way, he began to heal his wounds and then unhurriedly cultivate, increasing his strength while remaining in that abandoned world.

Once he finished absorbing all those natural resources, he hopefully searched for a natural formation to return again to his former world.

When he found the matrix, he teleported himself back to the great world to an entirely different place, far from where he had been before. Without thinking further, that young man's instinct was to know the actual date of that moment.

Unbelievably, he was greatly surprised when he learned that only a few days had passed since he was chased and teleported through the formation, but he had clearly spent several years in that Abandoned World!

Was it really just an illusion or reality?

That strange event was the same as what had happened in the first Abandoned World he went to, being in that world for a long time but in his original world only a short time had passed.

Also, his cultivation had not disappeared, proving that he had really spent all that time cultivating in that strange world...

Thoughts related to this kind of Abandoned or Dead Worlds quickly gathered in his mind, deciding all kinds of plans and ideas.

Knowing that he would have to become stronger and get richer in order to gain all kinds of knowledge, he started looking again for resources to increase his strength, but this time, he changed his way and concentrated on looking for those teleportation formations that were lost all over that vast world so that he could repair them and make them work, thus allowing him to travel to another world.

If he could travel to those worlds and find many cultivation resources in order to increase his strength, then it would be the best option to become stronger quickly. Also, if time was different on those worlds, he would not spend much time on the great world and thus become stronger in a short time, gaining some power to defend himself and protect someone, especially if one of his beloved disciples reached the peak of mortal cultivation later on and ascended to that world where he was.

In that way he would have a greater chance of protecting them in this great new world full of immortals.

He no longer wanted to lose anyone for the third time.

He had promised and sworn to himself that he would become very strong to protect his family.

He no longer wanted to feel that heartbreaking, deep pain of losing the people he loved...

Therefore, he would have to do everything necessary to increase his cultivation quickly.

Moreover, he had no choice but to search for those teleportation areas in order to disappear, since shortly after he returned from that Abandoned World, the people who were previously chasing him found his whereabouts and again began to chase him. Although they did not understand how he could disappear from the previous search for a while and then appear somewhere else, those Immortals put their thoughts aside and began to follow him again.

The young man thought of searching in unknown, strange or discarded places that almost nobody had any information about them. In this way, he found a natural formation and traveled to another world.

Indeed, he had come to an abandoned world, a place where there was not even a sign of life that could be recent.

However, he quickly felt strange and weird when he arrived at that place, so he did not hesitate and looked for a teleportation formation to get out of that world. His instincts told him to leave that place.

Strangely, when he left the Abandoned World and arrived in the Great World, he was once again surprised when he compared the dates.

Almost ten years had passed in the Great World when in the Abandoned World where he stayed barely a month had passed!

This was almost the same as with the previous worlds, but this time it was the other way around! It was as if time stopped there, unlike in other places where time passed quickly.

The young man was very frightened when he realized that if he decided to stay in that Dead World for some years to cultivate, hundreds of years could pass in this great world...

Knowing firsthand that he could somehow feel if those worlds were beneficial to him or not, he again began to look for other formations of teleportation before the previous cultivators began to hunt him..."

Ling Tian stopped speaking when he showed a hesitant expression whether to continue or not.
