The Way of The Dao

Chapter 257 Thoughts

?"I think I'll go wash up..."

Ling Tian muttered when he noticed that some of his clothes were stained with the black blood of the demon beast as he dodged its attacks. It was beginning to emanate a somewhat unpleasant odor and he grimaced.

Extending his spiritual sense, he found a river somewhat far from the place.

"What are you going to do?" Ling Tian asked the women.

"We are going to continue cultivating." Long Yuyin immediately responded with determination.

The other women nodded as well.

They knew that with their current level of cultivation they could not do much, so they needed to increase their cultivation as soon as possible. They had an urge to continue cultivating at this time, at least to achieve the state of the Foundation Establishment.

Ling Tian smiled calmly as he advised them, "It is okay, but remember that you must not despair at any time. You may be at the lowest level of cultivation now, but in time your cultivation will rise surprisingly high, have no doubt. You will be very powerful in the future."

With their full spirit roots, each of them would advance their cultivation by leaps and bounds and take less time than anyone else. Moreover, he had given an Immortal Crystal to each of them, and they could quickly reach the stage of the Foundation Establishment in a very short time.

Tang Wanying, Mu Shuiruo and Long Yuyin nodded happily at Ling Tian's words. Zhang Xinya was somehow the most affected and the one who was under the most pressure, as she was the only one of her sisters who was weaker at the current level of cultivation.

Yun Mengxin and Lan Yin also smiled, wanting to continue to cultivate as well, even though their cultivation levels were the highest of all the women.

"If you feel the same feeling as before, I will try to come to you in order to see what is going on." Ling Tian told Yun Mengxin, "Don't worry, whatever is 'calling' us is not bad, I am sure of it."

Ling Tian wondered if there was something in the void that was attracting Yun Mengxin and in that case him as well; but because his own call was soon extinguished by another power within him, he could only trust Yun Mengxin and see what was happening.

The connection that was cut off before the Chimera came out meant that whatever was calling them was in the void, but...

What could there be in the void?

Besides the tearing and destructive forces of the void itself and the mysterious of the space principles, there was nothing else that Ling Tian remembered as important.

When the call was lost, Ling Tian knew that a space channel managed to connect to the space of this lower plane, and so those demonic beasts entered; interrupting and cutting off the call to Yun Mengxin's soul.

He had been traveling countless times between various worlds and recognized that feeling of connection when the void connected to each other, forming a space channel of teleportation and entering an area, so to speak.

Ling Tian didn't know what it was that was calling them, but he was sure it wasn't bad. He even had the faintest feeling that he had to get to that place in order to move forward.

Could that help him with his current situation about the Heavenly Seal on his body?

Ling Tian would have to wait until then.

"Mm, I'll tell you if that happens again." Yun Mengxin nodded softly as she looked at Ling Tian.

Even though she didn't know why she felt such excitement and even some happiness as she approached those space cracks, she trusted Ling Tian.

Yun Mengxin looked at Zhang Xinya with a little smile and then looked at the other women.

Long Yuyin, Mu Shuiruo and Tang Wanying also smiled as they understood Yun Mengxin's gaze.

"You have to learn to fly very well, so we will have to keep flying." Yun Mengxin said calmly and then looked at Ling Tian, "Besides, you have to teach Sister Xinya how to fly too." She smiled sympathetically at Ling Tian.

Ling Tian really felt blessed to have such a woman in his life, as well as the other women. He understood that Yun Mengxin and the others were giving him and Zhang Xinya some space.

Zhang Xinya pouted when she saw that they all already knew how to fly and she was the only one who could not.

Yun Mengxin took out her sword and stood on it, starting to fly slowly in the air. The other girls did the same.

Lan Yin turned to see Ling Tian with a hesitant look, expressing that she wanted to stay with him.

"Yinyin, go with your big sisters. Don't worry, I still remember that I promised to play with you for a whole day." Ling Tian patted Lan Yin's head lovingly.

"Em! Yinyin will wait you!" Lan Yin smiled happily before drawing her own sword and following the other girls.

Ling Tian turned to see Zhang Xinya once the girls started flying higher and headed for the Star City.

His evil grin quickly made Zhang Xinya's heart beat faster, bringing back memories of what had happened between the two of them some time ago at the Zhang residence.

"Let's go."

Ling Tian did not wait for Zhang Xinya's answer and took her in his arms, earning a small surprised shout from her. However, Zhang Xinya did not resist and let herself be carried away by him, adjusting between his arms.

Flying directly to the river, Ling Tian lowered Zhang Xinya and said, "In order for me to teach you to fly, you will have to cultivate and enter the Fourth Stage of Chi Gathering."

"But I have no clothes to wear afterwards..."

Zhang Xinya knew that her body would be filled with black impurities, but both of them were not in the Mu house and she had no other clothes with her to change into.

Taking out a set of women's clothes, Ling Tian put it aside: "Don't worry, here you have it. Cultivate while I take off all this blood." He pointed to a part of his legs.

Zhang Xina nodded and began to cultivate. She was no longer surprised to see Ling Tian make things appear out of nowhere.

Ling Tian looked at her for a few seconds before walking to the river as he took off his clothes and began to remove the black blood from the Chimera.

He relaxed completely in the water while Zhang Xinya impacted the barrier to enter the Fourth Stage of Chi Gathering.

'My immortal essence was stirred again and even my sea of consciousness began to shake this time, but... what is that other thing that turns them off instantly?' Ling Tian wondered as he continued to remember everything that had happened. He had no explanation for what was really happening.

Thousands of questions came to his mind as he continued to think of thousands of possibilities.

"Haa... Whatever it is, I'll have to wait until Mengxin feels that feeling again to find out more..."

Ling Tian breathed a helpless sigh, not knowing the reason for the call to the soul. Things like this caused him a little despair because he didn't know what was happening.

Swoosh

A slight disturbance in the air brought him out of his thought state and he turned to see Zhang Xinya with a satisfying smile. It had not taken long for Zhang Xinya to increase her level of cultivation.

Crack

Zhang Xinya easily managed to break through the barrier and entered the Fourth Stage of Chi Gathering finally.
