The Way of The Dao

Chapter 620 Encounter Across Realms (2)

?Ling Tian smiled full of love when he saw his wives behind the mysterious mirror that had opened in front of him. He had removed his mask and his eyes showed that longing and love for them, as well as a relief and comfort that they were all well and had no mishaps.

"It seems to be the space or meeting place of the heart..."

Ling Tian muttered almost exactly what Yun Mengxin had thought; this kind of place that connected with the space and time of another place was undoubtedly one of the almost forgotten mysterious realms and places.

It is said that this kind of mysterious place one can reunite with their partner or their other heart if they are separated in different time and space. The heart is something mysterious, as deep and inexplicable as the heavens, so it is not strange that this kind of phenomena exists.

Yun Mengxin and the others smiled with joy and love at the sight of him, and although they could not communicate with each other due to no sound piercing through other than the image of them, they were still happy and excited to see him well too. Just the shared feeling in their hearts was more than enough to communicate and know that they were all well.

Ling Tian smiled softly and looked at each face of his wives, he felt his heart filling with energy again and his conviction to reunite with everyone was getting stronger and stronger.

Suddenly, Ling Tian blinked in surprise and immediately put on the dragon mask and turned to look in a certain direction but without moving from the spot.

...

"What happened?"

Tang Wanying asked in confusion as she saw Ling Tian's reaction to putting on the mask again.

They were all content and happy, even the tears in the corners of their eyes couldn't help but form at the sight of Ling Tian again. Their hearts were also relieved and full of happiness to see that Ling Tian was well.

But seeing Ling Tian put his mask back on and look to the side made the women wonder what had happened.

"There seems to be something going on on his side."

Yun Mengxin frowned as she could feel Ling Tian's feeling as well, knowing that something was happening on his side.

...

"Here he is, hahaha!"

A malevolent laughter was heard at once and several figures appeared near Ling Tian, looking at him with disdain and mockery.

"Kid, hand over your things! None of your companions are here, so if you don't want to die then obey!"

"We can leave you a whole body if you don't put up any resistance!"

"It's a pity that he's handsome but crippled..."

Men and women looked at Ling Tian with contempt and pity. More than 10 people in the sky appeared and released their powerful auras at Ling Tian, wanting to restrain and scare him. All of them had seen Ling Tian's storage ring, and since he was with those other powerful people, they assumed that he might have great treasures in it. Even the dragon mask he had attracted their curiosity and they wanted to have it as they realized it was a first-rate artifact.

Although they were surprised to see the world of crystals and mirrors, they still had their focus on Ling Tian. After all, Ling Tian was a cripple and could not defend himself if he was alone.

Ling Tian was silent as he looked at the others. A strange intuition in his heart was beating, as if at any moment something mysterious might be unleashed.

Then, his gaze drifted slightly elsewhere, sensing a small and almost imperceptible presence, but one that gave Ling Tian a sharp and alarmist intuition.

"You'd better run away from here..."

Ling Tian muttered faintly without taking into account these people who had him locked up. His mind was only mindful of this strange presence. He didn't care if these people died or not, but he didn't want any hindrances at the moment.

"Hahaha!"

"You're so scared you don't know what you're saying anymore? What a pity!"

"Let's hurry up and get out of here I feel disgusted... I want to take a relaxing bath."

Without feeling the presence Ling Tian grasped, everyone sneered and approached Ling Tian, thinking that he was full of fear and couldn't escape let alone think clearly.

"Ho? A meeting place of hearts..."

A strange old voice was soon heard, stopping everyone's actions.

"Who are you? How dare you appear behind us?"

One of the men in the group was surprised to see a withered and thin old man behind them, he had not sensed their presence and was still flying quietly!

This thin and withered old man was looking at them with indifference, and although his voice seemed surprised when he looked at the place where they were, his face did not show it. His body exuded a chi of death, the bones could be clearly seen and his breath was very small and faint, almost imperceptible.

The old man looked at the place full of crystals and then scanned each one and continued with the same indifference as always.

"Scales and skin of a true ancient dragon!"

Then, the old man was surprised when he looked at Ling Tian and noticed his mask. Finally, a different expression was drawn on his face.

Ling Tian blinked slightly in surprise as he saw that someone had finally noticed the essential material that his mask was made of. He could clearly feel the old man's spirit sense brazenly scanning his body, as if searching for something.

"Old man, you'd better get the hell out of here if you don't want to die! This kid's stuff is ours and you can't lay a finger on him!"

Then, an older man of an appearance of over 40 years old formed a cultivation essence giant hand and trapped the old man.

The cultivation essence giant hand caught the old man easily, but the old man didn't move and only his gaze was on Ling Tian, with his gaze lighting up more and more...

"Essence of Purple Chi and dragon's protective aura!"

The old man shouted excitedly and his aura suddenly burst out, exploding the cultivation essence giant hand that was keeping him imprisoned. His gaze on Ling Tian didn't change and he didn't bring the others into his eyes.

"What? This old man is very powerful!"

The older man who had realized the cultivation essence giant hand was surprised when he felt the old man's momentum, knowing that he was stronger than him!

"Elder Ping, I can't believe you are still weak!"

Another voice of another man in his 30s mocked the previous old man and quickly materialized his own cultivation essence giant hand. He appeared near the old man the next moment and with a sword in his hand slashed as his domain was completed in less than a second.

* Slash! *

The imperceptible sound of a slash was heard, but the next moment everyone was stunned to see that the man who had attacked was split in two along with his spirit essence!

A powerhouse of the Great Ascension realm had been easily killed!

"Pesky ants should keep quiet..."

The withered and weak old man sneered in a low voice but his voice was clear enough. His hand rose and he waved it in the direction of everyone else. A very faint and strange but very fine energy emanated from him and was directed towards the others.

"Elder, help me!"

"Senior Brother, save me!"

The screams stopped as soon as they were heard and the bodies were finely split in two, as if a sword had made its way between them.

Not even the essence spirits were spared!

"You don't seem too surprised despite being a so-called cripple..."

The old man looked at Ling Tian and smirked with interest, as if expressing more interest in him. The coldness and evilness in killing others seemed to be at odds with his words.

Ling Tian stared at the old man without even showing nerves or shock. But inside he was serious and his mind was processing many things. His mind recalled the way the old man killed the others without any Chi.

"Sword Intention?"

Ling Tian calmly spat out these words, making the old man surprised this time before laughing with great interest.

"Hahaha! Looks like you're not a mere youth to see you after all! It's almost impossible for someone to quickly see my sword intent in a single move!"

The old man laughed out loud and said again, "You don't look like an old monster who has occupied the body of a kid, you don't even look like a big grown man..." The old man frowned for a moment before adding, "Although you look like you're a few dozen years old, you must not be more than a thousand years old. It's not normal to find someone like you in the lower planes!"

There was a strange cloak covering Ling Tian's body, making it difficult for others to see through and look into his body.

Ling Tian showed no reaction and this made the old man smile even more.

"Normally powerful individuals who are over 100 years old and have not aged much is because they have reached high and powerful realms quickly, but this place is connected to the lower planes where it is difficult to advance to higher levels..."

"Therefore, it seems that you come from a higher plane... from the plane of the Immortal realm!"

...

"That old man is very powerful..."

Long Yuyin looked dumbfoundedly at the old man standing in front of Ling Tian, feeling some worry.

The connection between them had not been severed, so these women could see what was happening on Ling Tian's side.

"I couldn't see how he moved." Tang Wanying also frowned, remembering that she couldn't see how the old man killed the others.

Mu Shuiruo was worried and Zhang Xinya gritted her teeth knowing that she couldn't help Ling Tian and they could only see.

"Sword intent..."

Yun Mengxin whispered causing everyone to be surprised. She felt something reach her heart and the thought suddenly came.

Yun Mengxin brought her hand to her heart and knew that Ling Tian's thought had reached her, having an idea of what was happening on the other side.

"Sword intent?" Tang Wanying was surprised and thought about what Yun Mengxin said.

"I got that feeling, as if I could hear his thoughts..." Yun Mengxin nodded and replied without taking her eyes off what was happening on the other side.

"I didn't see anything!" Zhang Xinya clenched the spear in her hand and remembered that she couldn't see the old man's movement, even he didn't have a sword in his hand!

"But our husband is also a sword expert!" Mu Shuiruo called out with a tinge of worry.

After all, although they faced powerful enemies recently, they had never seen someone like the old man facing Ling Tian. They couldn't even see how the old man had slaughtered those other people to dust!

They watched Ling Tian and the thin and ugly old man stare at each other, with the latter starting to laugh as he looked with more interest and amusement at Ling Tian.

Ling Tian and the old man only looked at each other without looking away, with the old man laughing more and more but with obvious disdain and ridicule towards Ling Tian.

Suddenly, Ling Tian's right shoulder fiercely opened and blood splattered out, creating an explosion of blood and a few pieces of flesh as what appeared to be a slight flash of a sword appeared before their eyes!

The women's hearts stopped and froze on the spot, forgetting to even breathe!
