The Way of The Dao

Chapter 798 You Must Already Know What I Am Capable Of!

?Lang Qingzu let out a sigh with some fatigue some time later, the spiritual energy around her slowly faded away like a hurricane that was quickly dissipating. However, a powerful aura emanated from her constantly to the point that just by breathing she was letting out a powerful force.

"Zu'er, you made it!" Xuan Li's voice was heard at once. She walked towards Lang Qingzu quickly.

"I did it?" Lang Qingzu, who blinked somewhat confused muttered inwardly before smiling happily. Her spirit sense scanned the inside of her body, further widening the smile on her face.

Inside her body she found a glowing golden point... her own golden core!

This golden core was constantly absorbing the energy of the world, filling her with strength and vitality every moment!

Lang Qingzu could feel that her strength had greatly increased! She even felt that with the strength of her hand alone, she could break an entire building!

"Uhm! Well done! You've managed to form your own golden core!"

Ling Tian's voice came as he appeared at Lang Qingzu's side and patted her head gently. His spirit sense quickly observed that Lang Qingzu's foundation was stable and a large portion was consolidated correctly.

"Hehe~" Lang Qingzu laughed happily before pausing for a moment, her face stupefied as she looked at her body again. Her pupils shrank as she felt embarrassment and shame.

Smiling amusedly as he continued to see this behavior, Ling Tian waved his hands and made an isolation barrier appear somewhat close to them, as if it was another separate space as well. Lang Qingzu did not hesitate and quickly ran at an unimaginable speed once she noticed the isolation barrier

The impurities on Lang Qingzu's body had been removed from her again, so they covered her body starting to give off a somewhat foul smell while dirt almost completely covered her.

"Looks like you've consolidated much of your strength as well." Ling Tian turned to look at Xuan Li and nodded with a smile.

"Yes ancestor!" Xuan Li nodded with a smile as well while clenching her small fist. She had consolidated a considerable part of her strength, so her base became more stable and solid and she won't have future problems with her base.

"The aura here already became sparse, so it will be useless to try to continue cultivating more." Ling Tian waved his hands, retrieving some flags from formations he had thrown earlier, turned to look to the sides and said, "Let's get out of here, let's go to the next place."

The formations were completely deactivated, all traces of aura weakened and became very sparse, barely being able to recover a little aura in a short time. Cultivating to increase cultivation would be completely ineffective.

After some waiting time, Lang Qingzu appeared with a flushed face, her tender and soft cheeks flushed as she approached Ling Tian and Xuan Li. Her body was completely clean, with a new dress, looking much more beautiful and pretty than before as her skin was whiter and smoother, like a new rebirth.

Ling Tian patted Lang Qingzu's head trying to reassure her before leading the way.

There was no longer any group of cultivators, so Ling Tian, Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu were able to leave without a problem.

"Ancestor, where are we going?"

Flying on her flying sword, Xuan Li asked curiously. The direction Ling Tian had taken clearly seemed to be fixed, as if he knew where to go.

"Yippee~"

"Wow~"

"Hehe~ I can fly like I had wanted to!"

Unlike Xuan Li, Lang Qingzu was flying on her own without the need for a flying sword. Upon reaching the Golden Core stage one could finally fly without the need to use a flying sword, fly and float in the sky with their own energy; however, most would still use flying swords because the power consumption was considerably large, so they could not stay in the air for long before getting tired.

Indeed, Lang Qingzu flew for a little while before taking out her own flying sword and climbing onto it, breathing with some fatigue but with such a big smile that she could not contain the happiness in her while regaining her strength.

Lang Qingzu quickly approached Ling Tian and Xuan Li who were still on their own flying swords, looking at her with happy smiles. Lang Qingzu also smiled more happily, feeling happy that she finally just reached a considerably strong stage and could already start to stand up for herself.

"Let's go to a certain place that old man kindly explained to me. He said that there might be another part of your inheritance there as well."

Ling Tian nodded to Lang Qingzu and replied to Xuan Li with an amused smile as he took out a small crystal ball. The old man in his words was the old man from the previous place, the sect guardian who handed Xuan Li the Primordial Warrior Sect's inheritance. Just remembering that old man's expression, Ling Tian couldn't help but let out a small chuckle inside when he lightly questioned him about some nearby place with other inheritances or available cultivation resources, obtaining the small crystal sphere in his hand.

"Once the sphere lights up, we are close to the place. When it glows completely it means we will have finally arrived." Ling Tian explained in a nutshell.

"Cool!" Lang Qingzu clenched her fist in anticipation shining on her face.

"I see..." Xuan Li nodded dumbly and didn't ask any further. Unlike Lang Qingzu, she could clearly remember that the attitude of that elder who seemed so unfathomable and powerful to her was afraid when he looked at Ling Tian.

The elder did not even refute Ling Tian's words when talking to him or dare to refuse.

'The ancestor will really be as powerful as my master? Much stronger than her?' Xuan Li thought to herself before casting a few small sly glances towards Ling Tian. She knew that to have taught and cared for her master and the other elders, Ling Tian would have to have had a considerable amount of strength, enough to protect his disciples in the past, so Xuan Li was sure that Ling Tian would have to be a true Great Ascension realm expert like her Master.

But instantly, Xuan Li took a deep breath before clenching her fist with determination; the strength, power and knowledge she received broadened her outlook and made her largely realize that she still has a long way to go, that she shouldn't settle and feel arrogant with this small increase in strength even though she could already be considered a top-tier powerhouse in this place.

The trio quickly headed in a specific direction which Ling Tian led all the way, encountering some group of cultivators who were either going in search of adventure or traveling to other places. Likewise, some cultivators wanted to cause trouble, but a faint powerful aura from Xuan Li quickly scared them away, escaping from the place.

They also kept finding remains and debris of some buildings or what looked like small scattered buildings, as if they were very old and ancient resting places.

They quickly arrived at the designated place: a small valley full of deserted and neglected hills, as if the power of nature had long since been eliminated. Not a trace of aura could be felt in the place.

"Did we arrive?" Lang Qingzu tilted her head in confusion, throwing her spirit sense around the entire valley, trying to look for something that caught her attention.

"I don't see anything..." Xuan Li frowned, her powerful spirit sense that had strengthened several layers and had a much greater range than a few days ago still couldn't find something that caught her attention.

"It's here." Ling Tian nodded and held up the small crystal sphere that was glowing brightly, "It's just that there are several concealment formations here as well."

At once, Ling Tian waved his arm indifferently, when the next moment, the place began to shake briefly before quickly calming down.

The aura began to gather towards where they were gradually, heading in all directions before concentrating again and becoming thicker and more focused.

"Who's there?"

Then, a majestic voice filled with an authoritative and cold tone expanded in the place, shaking the small hills and even the entire valley!

Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu were stunned before trying to expel their auras to protect themselves. Their expressions turned serious and somewhat frightened as they felt that with just this voice alone completely suppressed them, even Xuan Li was somewhat apprehensive, feeling that her new Nascent Soul realm power seemed so insignificant still against all those terrifying powerhouses.

"Pretty presumptuous and annoying only to be a mere spirit remnant!" Ling Tian snorted and waved his hand again as he saw that this voice had no intention of being friendly, removing the pressure that was on both girls and creating a much greater force that countered any oppressive aura.

The valley and all the hills quieted at once, returning to their peaceful and solitary state.

"Ancestor..."

Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu turned to look at Ling Tian with sighs of relief and grateful to see that he had created a barrier in front of the two of them to remove the aura oppressing them.

"Here is the heiress of your sect, won't you let her pass?" Ling Tian spoke indifferently and then looked at Xuan Li and said, "Execute the main technique of the inheritance you received and use the halberd and armor as well."bender

"Alright!" Xuan Li nodded and she did not hesitate to do it.

Lang Qingzu came to Ling Tian's side taking his hand as she understood that her big sister would release some of her power. Even with her level at the Golden Core stage she was still very weak against Xuan Li's power that was at the Nascent Soul realm.

Xuan Li quickly concentrated on cultivating the core technique of the inheritance she had received, the halberd appeared in her hand at the same time as all her armor as well, turning into that little warrior princess as she began to release a powerful and very intense aura.

The nearby small hills dozens of meters away began to tremble as Xuan Li began to cultivate her core technique, seeming to make the space around her tremble.

The stars on the horizon began to glow faintly, as they expelled a sliver of energy and surrounded Xuan Li, making her aura stronger and more powerful. The halberd in her hand also glowed and released a terrifying power from it, complementing Xuan Li and far surpassing the Nascent Soul Realm Middle Stage. Even a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Realm Late Stage would have trouble dealing with Xuan Li in no time.

Xuan Li frowned when she saw that after several seconds nothing happened.

"It's alright, don't worry. It looks like it won't show itself unless we force our own way in."

Just as Xuan Li was preparing to perform the first heavenly technique [Cosmological Principle] and exhaust much of her recovered energy, Ling Tian's voice stopped her.

"If you were some stranger I would restrain myself a bit, but since I already know that you are part of the same Primordial Warrior Sect, then I will not restrain myself. You must already know what I am capable of!"

Ling Tian's eyes turned cold and somewhat tired from watching this event, so he didn't want to wait any longer and play with this identity by waiting for it to come out.

Xuan Li hurried and stood behind Ling Tian as did Lang Qingzu, very attentive to what Ling Tian would do. If she didn't misremember, this would be her ancestor's second shot.

The power of the Space Law was mobilized and the spatial principles came into play, the place seemed to become slightly opaque when a stealthy but terrifying space force surrounded the place. At this moment, the power of the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures and the Soul Spiritual Force collided with each other to rip the space in front of Ling Tian easily, shattering every formation in the place that was activated but not activating anything at all.

Both Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu's expressions turned stupefied and somewhat pale as they observed what seemed to be a large enough spatial rift of several meters in front of them that expelled terrifying forces that easily suppressed them if they moved away from Ling Tian, and which on the other side they could observe a strange and dark room.
