The Way of The Dao

Chapter 370 Map Of The Heavens, Earth, Mountains & Rivers

?* Crack... *

* Woosh... *

Before Ling Tian could check the strange roll in his hands, the alteration of space and the shaking of the air instantly caught his attention.

Qing Sha had succeeded in cultivating!

She was now in the First Stage of Chi Gathering!

Qing Sha's small body was filled with impurities when she first entered cultivation.

Qing Sha opened her eyes in surprise and looked at her body that had filled with dirt.

Her eyes showed some fear and shame when she noticed Ling Tian looking at her with a smile.

"How is it that these girls look so much alike?" Ling Tian wondered when he noticed that those eyes resembled the eyes of Lan Yin which she had shown him the first time, as did his other female disciples when he taught them to cultivate.

Qing Sha was filled with anxiety and shame as she had nothing to wash with!

"Shasha, here." Ling Tian told her and took several steps.

Lifting his hand and expelling his Immortal Essence he made a large space in the ground and then performed a spell, creating amounts of water and filling the space.

Soon it became a small lake so that Qing Sha could wash herself. He took out clothes for Qing Sha and set them aside for her to wear later.

Qing Sha quickly rushed in when she noticed it and went into the water.

"Master turn around!"

However, when Qing Sha had entered, she looked at Ling Tian and shouted out in shame.

Ling Tian was even more shocked to see this kind of reaction in Qing Sha, as if she were a young woman concerned about her purity!

Qing Sha was only a child and he had no such thoughts towards her...

"Okay, I'll put up a barrier, so don't worry that no one will see you!" Ling Tian didn't want to say anything else and waved his hand, placing an isolation barrier around Qing Sha.

Ling Tian turned around and noticed that his ladies were looking at him curiously, conveying strange thoughts and staring at them.

He decided not to comment and focused his gaze on the defensive item, with his back breaking into a cold sweat. The women stopped looking at him soon after and began to cultivate or practice their skills with their weapons.

This was a strange roll that was made of an old but sturdy material as if it were made of animal skin, giving the impression that it had been made a long time ago. Its size was somewhat large, almost half of his body.

A spiritual mark was on it and Ling Tian easily removed it.

Huh?

When Ling Tian opened the roll that looked like a scroll, he was shocked.

"Isn't this the legendary Map of the Heavens, Earth, Mountains and Rivers?!" Ling Tian muttered incredulously.

This was a legendary and rare treasure of antiquity!

"To think that it had ended up in the lower plane..." Ling Tian murmured still in disbelief.

This was a powerful treasure that served as both attack and defense. The Immortal World knew that long ago, an Immortal prospered rapidly because of this kind of treasure. But then that Immortal fell into a siege and this treasure was lost forever.

Although there were many artifacts made to resemble this treasure, they were not good enough.

Ling Tian held the scroll in his hands in surprise.

Once a person succeeds in refining this map, they can have an advantage in fighting, especially if they have a partner or are in a group!

This scroll has many functions, according to what is known in the Immortal World.

In order to attack, the cultivator could create a powerful Domain that could even contain the cultivators in the realm of the Great Ascension. Once they fall into the domain of the map, the fellows could easily attack and defeat the enemy.

It also has the function of recording the entire environment that the user travels, making use of its name by "recording" the places that have been visited and have a map itself.

When the cultivators has completely recorded the place where they are, they can create an illusion for the enemy and confuse them!

This treasure is a powerful weapon for support!

The defense function is so extraordinary as well.

This map can draw on the power of nature to create a barrier of energy around the user or group and, added to the power poured into it, this barrier can become stronger!

An excellent defensive weapon that can create an almost unbreakable wall!

He knew many of its uses, but had a premonition that there could be more hidden secrets that the former immortal could not decipher.

Ling Tian did not expect this legendary treasure to fall into his hands.

"That idiot refined it horribly and almost made useless this magnificent treasure..." Ling Tian snorted coldly when he noticed that the quality of this treasure was deteriorating mainly because of the type of use it was subjected to.

It was obvious that this Sect Master would have no knowledge about this and only thought it was a good artifact for defense only.

If that Sect Master had really known what he had, Ling Tian would have difficulty leaving the other small world if such an artifact had been used. He did not know that he had such an amazing treasure.

"As long as I get the materials and refine it in time, this treasure will shine again..."

Ling Tian grinned as he saw that this treasure could be repaired if it was put to proper use and refined and added more power.

"However." Ling Tian looked at the scroll for a long time and denied, "This treasure is not suitable for me..."

The Map of the Heavens, Earth, Mountains and Rivers was more of a support tool, so it didn't match his fighting style.

Instantly, a smile was drawn in the corner of his mouth when Ling Tian thought of someone.

"This would be perfect for little Shuiruo."

Ling Tian understood Mu Shuiruo's personality and feelings very well. Although she almost didn't like to fight, she still tried hard to get ahead and learn.

This splendid treasure would be of great help to Mu Shuiruo; she could help the other girls without the need to be in the front, supporting her sisters from the side, and even be the main point of defense when they are in a problematic situation!

Furthermore, Mu Shuiruo's spirit root was the Earth, so she was perfectly compatible with this treasure. Her affinity for nature and the environment would increase the effect of attack and defense!

Mu Shuiruo could stay with Tang Wanying in the rear while Yun Mengxin, Long Yuyin and Zhang Xinya would be at the front of the battle.

Tang Wanying's technique was focused with the bow, so she would make the long distance attacks and could be protected by Mu Shuiruo at the same time without worrying.

Ling Tian would make sure to get the necessary materials to improve this treasure, so that Mu Shuiruo would nourish it with time and it would become an immortal treasure of high level again.

Ling Tian refined the Map a little in his cauldron, improving and repairing some damaged parts before giving it to Mu Shuiruo.

"Master, I'm done!"

Soon after, the voice of a cheerful Qing Sha was heard.

Turning to see Qing Sha, Ling Tian smiled tenderly.

Although Qing Sha had clearly deep scars all over her body and her face was still somewhat deformed, her eyes shone brightly, not thinking about the state of her body.

Nevertheless, her skin still improved a little and had a slight glow in it. The black impurities of her body had been expelled and in time her body would become stronger and healthier.

Patting Qing Sha's head, Ling Tian nodded and said, "Fine, Shasha! Now you have to stabilize your cultivation first. Then I will teach you the chant you will use and also give you a pill to heal your body."

Ling Tian really didn't care about the superficial state of Qing Sha's body. To him, Qing Sha was as beautiful and pretty as Lan Yin and his girls.

With just the innocent and happily glow in her eyes, it was enough for Ling Tian.

However, Ling Tian understood a bit of women's thinking about beauty and, although now Qing Sha may not say anything or consider it much, she may worry and torment herself once she grows up and matures.

Ling Tian understood the basic concept that beauty was one of the most important things for women, if not the most primordial!

Therefore, he would give Qing Sha the pill so she could heal and be a pretty, worry-free girl like Lan Yin.

"En!" Qing Sha nodded with a huge smile and sat down quickly, beginning to stabilize her acquired cultivation.

Ling Tian looked tenderly at Qing Sha, nodding at the special physique she possessed.

Qing Sha had also managed to successfully cultivate in a few hours as Lan Yin had done the first time; both had no experience or knowledge of either martial arts or cultivation and yet were quick.

Ling Tian searched through his memories for the cultivation technique for Qing Sha's special physique; Heavenly Pulse of the Holy Lightning.

"Primordial Holy Lightning Force..."

Ling Tian quickly found the right technique for Qing Sha.

"It was really worth venturing out and finding all these types of chants and special techniques..." Ling Tian smiled slightly and shook his head. Although he had said it calmly, no one could imagine how much he had to suffer to get everything he has so far.

Qing Sha opened her eyes at once and looked at Ling Tian. She had already finished stabilizing her cultivation.

Taking out an Immortal Crystal and placing it in front of Qing Sha, Ling Tian said, "Shasha, I will teach you your cultivation technique, so you have to learn it very well. Once you manage to increase your cultivation several more stages, I will teach you how to fly with a sword."

Qing Sha nodded with a big smile as she learned the chant for her cultivation method.

Ling Tian did not want to overwhelm Qing Sha by having her cultivate most of the time, so he would only let her advance a little more for today while she gradually gets used to it.

Ling Tian left clothes again for Qing Sha aside and left the barrier active around the small lake so that Qing Sha could wash up once she broke the barrier to the next stage.

The little white fox was close to both of them, with its head on its soft and elegant front legs while it slept. Lan Yin was to the side as well, cultivating for a while or practicing her sword technique before stopping and looking at Qing Sha with a happy smile.

"Brother!"

Some time later, a voice was heard from afar.

Ling Tian turned his gaze and looked at those who had arrived.

Tang Wanying and Mu Shuiruo gently approached and kissed Ling Tian's cheeks as they blushed slightly and then focused on improving their skills.

Mu Shen and Tang Jingtian came after both girls and approached right away as well.

The young man was also with them, with his eyes falling on Ling Tian and showing a serious expression.

"Did something happen?" Mu Shen asked. His sister and Tang Wanying had told him and Tang Jingtian that Ling Tian was calling them.

Tang Jingtian also looked at Ling Tian.

"Ehm." Ling Tian nodded and frowned for a few seconds before telling them, "I will give you a powerful high-ranking technique for both of you to practice."

Ling Tian proceeded to send a packet of information to both boys: "I need you to learn as much as you can and improve quickly. I will train with you later so that you can fully understand every essential step."

Tang Jingtian and Mu Shen were happy that Ling Tian would impart a powerful technique to them. Both boys nodded and moved away a little so that they could train once they understood the skills.

Ling Tian turned to look at the young man in front of him and lifted one corner of his lips slightly.

"You want to ask me something, don't you?"

Ling Tian said shortly thereafter, shaking the young man's breath a little in front of him.
