The Way of The Dao

"Little Ning?"

Ling Tian's trembling voice was finally heard, causing Xue Ning's pupils to dilate even more from happiness and excitement.

"Yes! It's me! Ning'er! Big brother, I've missed you so much all this time!"

Tears came out of Xue Ning again, but this time anyone could tell that each of her tears held happiness, longing, hope and excitement. Her happy and excited face gave a unique and different kind of beauty to anyone who saw her at this time.

Even her companion in the air was surprised to see the cool and indifferent fairy Xue Ning she knew in this state.

"H-How are you in this place?"

Ling Tian finally hesitated a bit as he was unable to process what was happening. He had already confirmed that this beautiful, adult woman in his arms was that little girl he cared for a considerable amount of time long before ascending to the immortal world, before receiving his first disciples!

Xue Ning!

But what puzzled Ling Tian was that he had met Xue Ning in another Cultivation World called Heavenly Moon. Therefore, how could she be in this world that was Heavenly Earth?

Could she have traveled through the void dimension or used some teleportation formation?

Countless questions and doubts filled Ling Tian's mind, especially how she was here and many other things. But seeing the everlasting smile and joy on Xue Ning, Ling Tian decided to leave the questions for later, not wanting to ruin the atmosphere at this moment.

But despite everything that happened and the place they were in, Xue Ning did not detach from Ling Tian and still kept hugging him, as if it was normal for them.

Ling Tian began to smile somewhat uncomfortably as he saw gazes stabbing at him from every direction. But what startled him was that apart from the usual stares that he could tell who they were from, this time, there were more sharp looks with different intentions!

Subtly looking around for help, Ling Tian sought out Yun Mengxin, who returned that slightly teasing and amused look, being aware that this woman also seemed to have certain feelings involved at the moment!

Gao Xue, Gao Yue and Zhen Bingluo were the first to approach Ling Tian and Xue Ning, casting strange and fixed glances at the latter while also noticing the group of Yun Mengxin and the others, remembering the interaction with Ling Tian a few moments ago.

"You want to explain what's going on here, honey~?"

Zhang Xinya's calm voice was heard at once, sending slight shivers for the first time to Ling Tian as he saw a soft and calm smile on her, but being able to feel the outburst and chaos of emotions in this jealous woman of his.

Zhang Xinya and the other co-wives looked at Ling Tian for answers, wanting them to explain everything that was going on. Not only them, but Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei as well, wanting to know who these women who were very intimate with Ling Tian really were.

How come more and more women were appearing and throwing themselves and hugging Ling Tian?

What was going on?

Ling Tian finally felt a stream of shivers and was stunned.

Xue Ning finally noticed the atmosphere and reluctantly separated from Ling Tian. She looked around and looked at every face hidden by a veil, but without showing weakness to anyone.

Zhang Xinya met Xi Fei's gaze. Ning Xiaoyi met Gao Yue's gaze. Zheng Bingluo met Tang Wanying's gaze. Long Yuyin met Gao Xue's gaze. Xue Ning met Mu Shuiruo's gaze. Xuanyuan Ling met Nalan Ziqing's gaze.

Lan Yin and Qing Sha looked curiously at all these adult women, wondering what was going on while the little white fox on one of their shoulders also watched the scene silently.

Surprisingly, there were a few glances that were directed at Yun Mengxin, but they quickly withdrew without exception. It was as if there was mysteriously a different level between all of them and Yun Mengxin...

Shin Wei decided to remain silent as he steadily but quietly walked away from this place, his heart pounding intensely and fear enveloping him. It seems that one of his imaginations came true, but much deeper and somewhat different. 

"Cough-cough..."

Ling Tian cleared his throat slightly, wanting to break the atmosphere of the place.

"I-I know you have a lot of questions, but don't worry, I'll answer them..."

In the next moment, Ling Tian's Consciousness Sea shook fiercely, shrinking his pupils as a sliver of his natural aura escaped from him, startling all those around him as they felt a powerful breath!

Yun Mengxin's spiritual energy quickly merged into Ling Tian's Consciousness Sea, entering easily and without being attacked. She quickly tried to stabilize what was happening in Ling Tian's consciousness as Ling Tian felt a sharp and intense pain, only being able to grit his teeth as he began to try to calm his own spiritual energy as well.

Soul attack?

Ling Tian could only think of this as the pain became more intense and his defenses began to break down, feeling as if a great powerful force was trying to pull and destroy his Consciousness Sea. Spiritual energy burst into place as he tried to be contained and keep from going completely chaotic.

"Husband!"

"Master!"

"Ling Tian!"

"Big brother!"

"Brother Tian!"

Exclamations erupted instantly as they saw Ling Tian clutch his head in pain, the veins on its surface visibly remarking themselves and he couldn't help but drop to one knee, panting heavily when he could. The natural aura of his body came out some more beginning to alter the place and slightly darkening the sky, with an imperceptible streak of lightning crossing the horizon.

His black hair glowed and turned white again. His natural aura began to escape as suddenly, the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures acted on their own and blocked Ling Tian's body, completely restricting him and preventing his natural aura from continuing to come out.

Ling Tian's Consciousness Sea became fiercely agitated, as if a strange energy wanted to attack him. The lake in it rose violently towards the sun, as a whirlpool formed all over its place. Its defenses were about to break down completely when the next moment a light breeze of energy burst forth from the small sprout in the middle, instantly calming all the spiritual energy in all the Consciousness Sea.

* Crack... *

Before Ling Tian could say anything and get a grip on what was happening to him, a crack was clearly heard in the sky, causing everyone couldn't help but turn to look.

* Boom! *

Powerful energies burst across the sky all the way to the horizon, clearing the sky as the clouds were torn apart!

The crack in the sky in front of them grew larger and larger, expelling fierce energies that could easily destroy anyone. The energy was so powerful that it spread across the entire vast horizon, piercing through the entire sky and the entire continent, beginning to shake the entire Cultivation World for the first time!

This was not simply horrible destructive energies coming from the void, one could also sense a superior and very powerful type of cultivation essence, Immortal Essence!

Suddenly, what seemed to be a powerful and terrifying spirit sense scanned the entire Cultivation World! Trembling much more as the world principles began to shatter!

"What's going on? What this?"

"What kind of power is this? Is the world coming to an end?"

"No! This seems to be a powerful spirit sense..."

"An immortal aura!"

"God! Did an Immortal God descend to this world?"

"What is this powerful and pure energy? Could it be the activation of a powerful immortal treasure?"

"This can only be the work of a powerful Immortal! Do Immortals really exist? Does the legendary Immortal World really exist?!"

"We must search for the source of this immortal energy!"

"You're an idiot! If you want to die, go! We'll stay here until it's safe to leave! We don't know if this Immortal is good or evil and it murders whoever it sees!"

"Coward!"

Countless exclamations and screams of terror were heard throughout the entire cultivation world as the energy coming from the crack was spreading throughout the sky.
