The Way of The Dao

Chapter 338 Kun Peng's Blood?

?"The people you are looking for and the people you thought you lost will appear in your life once again."

Linqi gave one last smile to Ling Tian.

* WOOSH! *

The crack finally closed.

Ling Tian was surprised by what Linqi had told him.

"What did he mean about that?" Ling Tian whispered as he tried to see the passage into the small dimension where he had been before but found nothing, as if it had disappeared completely. Not even the root of that place existed.

"The people I look for and the people I lost?" Ling Tian didn't know what Linqi meant by the last thing he said.

Ling Tian understood that the people he was looking for were indeed his true family, those people who abandoned him on a lower plane and later discovered that they belonged to the Immortal World, but when he ascended that family had completely disappeared.

His family were the people he had looked for a long time before, and even now he wanted to find them and learn why they had abandoned him. Only to satisfy his curiosity and to know the truth, but Ling Tian had no memory or affection for them; they were simply people unknown to him who would only share a blood connection, but nothing more.

But...

The people he lost were his former family who adopted him and the two women who helped him a lot when he was just starting to cultivate.

He saw with his own eyes how his own adoptive family was killed, so Ling Tian did not believe Linqi was referring to them.

"Xiaoyi and Fei...?" Ling Tian whispered as he remembered the two women, but then shook his head as he let out a sad smile: "They are dead that I couldn't even find their bodies..." He clenched his fist tightly in anger.

Although Ling Tian never saw their deaths or found their bodies, he knew that both girls could not escape those two demon cultivators who had held them back.

If he could not even make a small scratch the old demon he was fighting because of the immense difference in strength, then those two demons who were with the old man could easily kill Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei.

Ling Tian was stronger than both girls and had precisely sacrificed himself so that they could survive, but in the end, he was the only one who survived while the two women had died.

Apart from the two of them, Ling Tian did not know anyone else he had missed or lost.

"It is useless..." Ling Tian shook his head and let out a sigh: "Whatever has to happen, will happen; it is better to worry about today than about a tomorrow that you really don't know will happen."

One would close his own path if they did not understand the essence of life.

* Crackle *

Cracks and storms that contained a horrible force of the void could be felt and seen from where he was.

"Where should I go?" Ling Tian looked around and could only see the nothingness.

Finding the Small World of the Divine Star Continent would not be easy. Ling Tian was in the middle of nowhere, a place where an entire plane resided and contained hundreds if not thousands of dimensions or small worlds.

No doubt it would take Ling Tian some time to find the little world.

"At least I left my token with my aura in that teleportation circle..." Ling Tian smiled confidently, "Once I get into a close range I will be able to feel it."

The token he had left in the Star City was connected to the Space Law of that world, so he could feel his connection once he got close.

Before moving, Ling Tian took out the small jade bottle Linqi had given him.

Searching through the information packet in his Knowledge Sea, Ling Tian found the information related to the jade bottle.

'This bottle contains the true blood essence of the Kun Peng, which is very beneficial for refining your body completely and, above all, learning about the Space Principle.

The Kun Peng was a sacred beast that could travel in the void without any problems. Once a Kun Peng grew and reached its maximum strength, these beings could teleport from one dimension to another with just a little movement.

Unfortunately, this powerful creature is now extinct and only these drops of its blood remain.

If you want to find the realm of the animal race, you will have to progress rapidly in your ability to Space, which this blood will help you in understanding your path.'

Ling Tian extracted the most important information Linqi had given him. The rest he would read once he was in a calm place.

Kun Peng?

Ling Tian didn't know much about this being, but he knew it was a half-fish, half-bird creature. These wonderful creatures could swim and fly because of their constitution.

Ling Tian checked the contents of the jade bottle and counted a total of 30 drops.

"Currently my body cannot withstand the destructive forces of the void, so I will have to re-cultivate the refinement of my body..." Ling Tian grimaced when he discovered that although his previous body refinement was returning each time a layer was released, it was not progressing very much, as if there was not much difference.

If his body could not withstand the force of the void, then he could not learn anything from Space. His body would be destroyed before he could learn anything...

Surprisingly, the information that explained about the Kun Peng came along with a method of cultivation for the refinement of the body.

"The first state of this technique is called King... It seems that I will have to restart my body refinement again..."

Ling Tian quickly learned all about the first stage of the body refining method. The other stages he would learn later.

Ling Tian felt that this method of cultivation was more powerful than the one he had practiced before.

"Then I will have to refine my body first so that I can withstand the pressure of the void, and then I can calmly study Space without being disturbed by the forces of the void..." Ling Tian thought about what to do first.

In order to improve his understanding of Space and also quickly find the Divine Star Continent, Ling Tian would have to take advantage of time while in the void to refine his body and then move through the void without much difficulty.

Looking for a weak current that would contain the force of the void, Ling Tian took one deep breath before swallowing a drop of Kun Peng's blood and entering the storm of the void.

* Tear! *

His clothes instantly fell apart without a trace.

The skin on Ling Tian's body began to tear as huge wounds covered his body until the flesh itself could be seen.

Blood flowed abundantly from his wounds. Some small pieces of flesh also began to fall from his body.

Before he performed the cultivation technique, Ling Tian felt that his body began to burn from the inside out quickly.

The blood of the Kun Peng had begun to act and was completely burning his body from the inside.

Beginning to run the method of body refinement, Ling Tian felt his body begin to boil from within, feeling as if his own internal organs were burning directly with a powerful fire, as if they were about to turn to ashes at any moment.

* Woosh! *

The force of the void began to swirl more, increasing the pressure and force around Ling Tian.

"ARGHHH!"

Ling Tian groaned painfully after feeling his body become weak for a few seconds. He felt like he was going to explode by not being able to stand it.

Soon, the inside of his body began to burn as well when his organs began to twist rapidly.

A considerable amount of black impurities came out of his body, being instantly eliminated by the very force of the space storm.

The pressure and tearing force diminished several hours later, allowing Ling Tian to calm down a bit.

He then realized that it was not that the force of the void had diminished, but that his body had become a little stronger.

However, there was still some discomfort from being inside the storm.

His wounds slowly began to heal; this seemed to be due to the same technique of body refinement.

'This is a weak storm of the void and I can hardly stand it...' Ling Tian smiled bitterly as he relaxed.

If he were to encounter a big and powerful void storm, he did not know if he would survive.

"This..."

Before Ling Tian concentrated again on the method of body refinement, he felt the ripples of space.

Ling Tian felt stunned by the space around him while still locked in the current of the void. His method of cultivating the body's refinement continued to run subconsciously.

"I understand..." Ling Tian shook his head with a small smile after a long time.

Now he really understood what Linqi had advised him.

One of the best ways to learn about Space is to be in the void, but mainly to enter the spatial streams to make it easier.

But in order to do that, Ling Tian would have to refine his body to a level where he wouldn't have to worry about getting hurt by the same force of the void.

That's why he also gave him a body refinement cultivation method along with the blood of the Kun Peng.

In this way, Linqi hoped that he would be able to learn about Space more quickly and thus be able to travel without much difficulty in the void, all with the goal of being able to find the world of the animal race.

GRRR!

GROAR!

Roars of demonic beasts caught his attention before he continued to feel the space around him.

Looking into the distance, Ling Tian saw several demonic beasts that were being destroyed by the powerful force of the void as they were swallowed up by the storms of space.

Ling Tian knew that he had been carried away by the same current of space while concentrating on his refinement of body, so now he had come across a group of demonic beasts nearby.

* Badhump! *

* Badhump! *

At this moment, Ling Tian felt his heart begin to beat horribly, as if something were about to happen to him. His instincts were fully aroused as the urge filled his being.
