The Way of The Dao

Chapter 587 Resolution

?Li Fengyuan's gaze soon met Ling Tian's questioning and serious eyes.

"It's just that it's almost 2 great realms apart, Master..."

"So what?"

Li Fengyuan was startled to hear Ling Tian's reply, who was looking at her indifferently.

"It's impossible for me to be able to advance so fast..."

Li Fengyuan's voice became lower and lower until she did not speak, feeling embarrassed and ashamed as she felt Ling Tian's gaze on her. But for one thing, she still didn't believe that she could advance so many realms of strength! It was logical and common sense that it would take time and consolidation!

"Fengyuan."

Ling Tian's voice startled Li Fengyuan, making her slightly reluctant to meet his eyes and realize that Ling Tian's gaze held no mockery, let alone amusement, only seriousness.

"From now on, you are going to encounter many unexpected things, things that maybe it is common knowledge that are impossible to achieve, but they will be true. If you have this narrow mind and do not dare to believe or even more, to do it, you will not reach the top of the world, even if you have understood the Way of the Sword and became the most powerful swordswoman, you will never be able to take that last step to the top. Your life's destiny will also be taken out of your hands, and you will not be able to do anything to prevent it."

Ling Tian looked at her earnestly, wanting those words to be engraved in her mind and pondered deeply. If Li Fengyuan kept this mentality, she would be in trouble in the future. Although just a few days ago she was just a simple cultivator in a remote village and would perhaps be able to reach the Great Ascension realm after hundreds of years, Ling Tian wanted Li Fengyuan to understand that she had now entered another kind of world and the beliefs she held would be useless.

"If you don't think you can do this, then leave it at that. Go as far as you can without pushing yourself and I still promise you that you will achieve good results. But I won't be giving you any more advice, let alone being able to come with me to the Immortal realm."

Ling Tian spoke with a seriousness that Li Fengyuan had never seen before. Those jet black eyes exuded a deep seriousness that caused Li Fengyuan's consciousness to enter and ponder.

Li Fengyuan was startled and an insecurity and fear gripped her, realizing that her life could really go back to the way it had been in her past if Ling Tian no longer guided her. Her instinct told her to stand firmly with Ling Tian, for only he could clear her future of the chains that bound her and kept her life written.

Li Fengyuan contemplated Ling Tian's words in her heart and pondered them deeply. She knew that, although she was straightforward and somehow bold, there were many times when she would hesitate whether to take the plunge...

'Not anymore! If I don't take that step, then I will always be hesitating and will never be able to hold the destiny of my life in my own hands. I don't want to go back to that life of the past!'

Li Fengyuan swore in her mind, not wanting to walk away from Ling Tian let alone fall back into that past life where she felt her destiny was held by someone else. Her heart also didn't want to leave Ling Tian and wanted to stay by his side, wanting to thank him for giving her this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, realizing that without Ling Tian, Li Fengyuan would only be just another cultivator, a small town cultivator of a big cultivation world...

She wanted to reach the heavens and discover the secrets of the universe! She wanted to feel that thrill again, to be able to control the world in her hands and reach unimaginable strength!

Just like Ling Tian a few moments ago by summoning that giant world sword!

Li Fengyuan wanted to stand on top of the heavens and hold her own destiny in her hands!

Looking at Xuanyuan Ling and Shin Wei, Li Fengyuan became more convinced that she could reach their level as well. She didn't want to fall too far behind all of them.

Finally, Li Fengyuan opened her eyes and Ling Tian smiled, seeing the conviction and resolve in her eyes.

"Master, I will no longer hesitate and I will do what you tell me to do without hesitation! Although my talent for cultivation is not the best, Fengyuan will do her best not to let you down!"

Li Fengyuan's determined voice was heard as she nodded firmly towards Ling Tian, not showing any feelings of hesitation or insecurity.

"From now on, you will face situations you could never have imagined, you will fight against the very heaven itself and push your life to the limit! If you hesitate at that time, everything you have achieved will be in vain and you will meet your end, so make sure you have a firm mind and a strong heart so that you will never fall!"

Ling Tian sent these words of reflection to Li Fengyuan, who nodded and kept them in her heart, meditating on them completely.

Li Fengyuan began to perform the World Sovereign Sword chant, familiarizing herself with this technique, feeling immense power as she recited it in her consciousness while her cultivation essence flowed surprisingly.

"Little Wei, I'll trouble you to keep an eye around, I'll also try to see if I can repair my meridians."

"Sure, Master. Don't worry, you cultivate peacefully and I'll see to it that no one bothers you."

Ling Tian said to Shin Wei who nodded with a smile, assuring him not to worry.

"Let's take advantage of the spiritual veins underneath this place."

Ling Tian smiled, concentrating his spirit sense on the formation.

The reason he had deployed the high-level Chi Gathering Formation in this place was because there were several high-level spiritual veins!

Although these spiritual veins were very hidden and apparently already very old, they still had enough strength to grow the cultivation of several directly. Ling Tian discovered the spiritual veins when he saw the protective layers of what was once the academy being repaired automatically but with surprising speed. His spirit sense scanned the ground at its depth and found them.

In addition, there seemed to be 20 more spiritual veins of but low level, much weaker than the high level spiritual veins.

One spiritual vein had a large amount of spirit Chi, which it released into an area on the surface. Many Sects and Palaces would have these spiritual veins underneath them, minimum about 100 high level immortal spiritual veins in the Immortal realm. In this way, disciples and cultivators in that place could cultivate leisurely without the need to leave.

Now, there were 10 high-level spirit veins and 20 low-level spirit veins in this place!

"The first immortal mansion I created in the Immortal realm I placed nearly a thousand high-level immortal spiritual veins, along with over 100 high-level immortal spiritual lakes as well..."

Ling Tian recalled the first hidden mansion he created in the Immortal realm once he reached Supremacy. This one also served as a refuge for his disciples if anything happened to him, which Ling Tian hoped would fulfill its function...

"Although it's not even 100 immortal spiritual veins now, it's still something..."

Ling Tian smiled wryly as he saw the situation he was in, where he now had to take advantage of even such low-level spiritual veins.

Sitting cross-legged, Ling Tian let his spirit sense spread throughout the formation before drawing energy into his body, beginning to slowly direct it towards his Dantian.

Time passed and Ling Tian moved several times, aiming his spirit sense towards Li Fengyuan every time she made a significant breakthrough and needed to consolidate her strength.

Ling Tian also practiced every morning before dawn the mysterious movements that had appeared in his mind, obtaining small, almost imperceptible traces of Purple Chi that helped repair his meridians and Dantian.

Li Fengyuan finally broke through to the Golden Core Middle Stage and Ling Tian helped her consolidate her cultivation by completely restricting her, putting Li Fengyuan under enormous pressure as she tried to struggle and circulate her cultivation.

Xuanyuan Ling also managed to break through to the Middle Stage of Separation And Reunion easily, but still with her Potential being unable to form under Shin Wei's Domain.

A huge cloud of spirit Chi formed above the formation, bringing so much Chi that the three of them absorbed endlessly.

Li Fengyuan opened passed through to the Late Stage and then to the Golden Core Peak Stage, while Xuanyuan Ling managed to manifest her Potential for a few seconds within Shin Wei's Domain before disappearing.

The Sacred Heavenly Scriptures within Ling Tian operated continuously, these endlessly absorbed all the spiritual energy gathered by the formation, increasing the power within it and reaching the peak of the Golden Core realm. Even though Ling Tian gathered the most energy, almost three times as much as both girls, the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures seemed like a bottomless pit, swallowing so much energy but not advancing much, as if it took too much energy, even much more than 1 great realm to advance 1 small realm.

3 days passed and the clouds darkened, announcing to all that a heavenly tribulation was about to begin.

Li Fengyuan opened her eyes the when she felt Ling Tian's suppression disappear from her and felt a new and mysterious feeling, as if she was being watched by something and her cultivation essence began to flow wildly, as if she wanted to break free.

"Fengyuan, you are now going to deal with your first heavenly tribulation in order to enter the Nascent Soul realm."

Ling Tian's voice came and Li Fengyuan was shocked for a few seconds unable to react to what she heard.

"Huh?"
