The Way of The Dao

Chapter 851 The Legendary Stellar Stone!?

Chapter 851 The Legendary Stellar Stone!?

Terror instantly covered the whole place. The pupils of every single person in the place shrank to death, staring in horror at the young man who stood calmly in the center and just like that killed a powerful expert of the body condensation realm who was the ancestor of the Wen clan.

However, even though this young man who was barely in his mid-twenties and had pinched to death the clan's ancestor, no one moved, much less escaped.

No one knew if the horror they felt was because this young man was actually a supreme world powerhouse or if it was because he had just killed a body condensation realm expert so easy.

"Why guys like you can't behave and reason properly with others even a little bit?" Ling Tian let out a tired sigh and looked at Wen Rue with utmost indifference, "You only act like humble and flattering dogs when you come across something that can eliminate you in an instant..."

Wen Rue froze when he felt Ling Tian's gaze fall on him. But he was even more horrified when he realized that all the other clan members who were in the hall moments ago had silently exploded in blood in the blink of an eye!

Even his own son was no exception!

Terror and rage wiped out the last shred of reasoning in his consciousness, Wen Rue grabbed his spiritual sword and lunged towards Ling Tian without another thought.

"Or you lose your reasoning..."

Ling Tian looked nonchalantly at the man who seemed to have aged a few decades and no emotion could be seen in his eyes, as if he had died in life and only his body followed a survival instinct without any trace of soul.

Wen Rue's body froze in mid-air before he could approach Ling Tian, with his sword barely a few feet away from touching him.

* Boom! *

Wen Rue's body exploded as a terrifying coercion enveloped him.

Ling Tian stared for several seconds at the river of blood and a few pieces of flesh left behind, his gaze completely empty without any remorse or guilt.

"It is the law of the strongest that will always survive..." Ling Tian whispered and sighed somewhat disappointed.

In this world, the strongest fist is the one who rules and decides one's life... even if the other party just wants to live peacefully and happily with their loved ones, they will still be at the mercy of the strong one.

"If I want to live happily and peacefully with my family, I have to become stronger!"

Ling Tian clenched his fist briefly and let out a glimpse of aura, causing the space around him to tremble faintly!

If he wanted to achieve that life filled with love, peace and tranquility, then he had to become stronger and reach a height strong enough so that no one could threaten him!

Even so strong that the Heavenly Dao itself couldn't threaten him either!

Ling Tian no longer wanted to be under someone else!

Ling Tian looked around and calmly walked out of the main hall. His spirit sense scanned the place and soon found a place where the spiritual aura was more abundant and chi auras were slightly surging.

He encountered some remaining men who were barely at the chi gathering stage and even at the foundation establishment's early stage, but Ling Tian ignored them; they were probably the servants or low-level clan members who were not even strong enough.

Seeing Ling Tian, these people quickly fled in different directions.

Slaughtering the entire Wen clan did not give birth to remorse or guilt in the heart, just as he did with the Gongsun family. After spending a short time in the capital and gaining some information about the history and infamy of both families, sooner or later they would meet their tragic fate.

Both families had looted, robbed, murdered, raped and even controlled certain parts of the capital for their convenience, robbing and killing outsiders who came to the city, no matter if they were cultivators or mere mortals. To say nothing of their young masters, being arrogant and disdainful of the entire world.

The injustices and discontent over the inhabitants and people who had encountered any problems with these two families were enough to destroy these two giant families in this city.

And even if these families had done nothing wrong, Ling Tian would still eliminate them. After all, they had tried to kill him first.

Quickly, Ling Tian found a pavilion at the center of the place. Several layers of formations were placed around it, preventing anyone from entering unless they had some special token.

There was no nearby person in the place, someone who was guarding this clan's treasury. Probably the guys guarding this place had gone to the main hall with everyone else to kill him a few moments ago.

Ling Tian waved his hand lightly and the formations easily disappeared. The arrays were completely deactivated and there was no disastrous reaction.

The two huge doors opened and Ling Tian calmly walked in.

"For belonging to the south state, these two families really were anything but being poor."

Once he entered and expanded his spirit sense covering the entire pavilion, Ling Tian raised his eyebrows slightly as he found a considerable amount of cultivation resources, especially many mid-grade and even high-grade resources that nascent soul state and body condensation state experts would fight to obtain. It went without saying that low grade cultivation resources were abundant, but it was a pity that for Ling Tian it was useless.

Both this Wen Clan and the Gongsun Family had quite a few treasures and abundant cultivation resources.

"Even if they are of no use to me, they will still be of use to others." Ling Tian said calmly as he began to store all the items there in his spatial ring, the same way he did with the Gongsun Family's treasury.

These cultivation resources might not be of much use to him, but he was now the ancestor of a sect where the disciples still had a very low level of cultivation, so it would be perfect. Needless to say, his wives' family and others who were now being protected and led by Hao Zhentian would also need a lot of cultivation resources.

"Frosty Snow Heart..." Ling Tian took what seemed to be a snowflake in his hands, feeling the terrifying freezing cold that wanted to spread towards his body.

This snowflake was inside a box wrapped in low-level arrays that could barely contain the cold inside.

"This could help Mengxin to temper her base or it could help her heal from some deep wound... it would even be of help to Fei as well."

Ling Tian smiled in satisfaction at the sight of this object that looked like the core of winter itself as he thought about Yun Mengxin and Xi Fei. And there were five objects!

Even Di Ji's face came to his mind; the Three Winters Pill modified her body completely, adjusting to the ice cultivation path as well.

The Frosty?Snow?Heart?is extremely beneficial to those who cultivate ice arts, so it was undoubtedly meant especially for the three of them. As long as one did not cultivate ice arts, they would not be able to absorb and refine the energy of these items, so these things would be useless even if they were high-level resources. The lack of knowledge about the information of these natural treasures in this place was also normal for them to classify these low level items.

"Fire rock..."

"Amethyst crystal..."

"Spirit porcelain..."

"Dusk begonia..."

"..."

Ling Tian continued to find treasures and cultivation resources that although they were not as special and legendary, they were still hard to find in a short amount of time.

The amount of cultivation resources he collected at this time was on par with what he had taken from the Gongsun family.

"Uhm?"

Once he took all the cultivation resources and scanned the place for the last time avoiding having ignored something, Ling Tian looked in a certain direction in the background, he quickly took a step and appeared several meters away in front of a side of the stand that seemed to have some ordinary rocks piled up.

A strange but striking rock behind more rocks stacked without any care lay covered with dust, as if it had not been moved for several years, even decades...

Ling Tian picked it up and cleaned it, his spirit sense fully covered trying to see what it was, as it was very different from the common types of stones and rocks in front of him, being somewhat dark but with some holes in it.

The rock spanned the space of one of his hands, and despite this, Ling Tian's powerful spirit sense could not see what was inside, he could not even penetrate the crust, making him think that it was a common and simple rock.

However, at this moment, Ling Tian's intuition was urging him relentlessly, expressing to him that he had to find out what it was. Since his hands touched it, the hunch intensified.

Ling Tian took out a medium grade sword, the strongest he had in his storage ring for now, and somewhat forcefully slashed the rock in front of him.

Surprisingly, the rock didn't split, not even a scratch was left where the sword cut went through.

Ling Tian frowned and this time he added more than half his strength. The Sacred Heavenly Scriptures expelled its power and poured over the sword, which fell on the rock.

* Boom~! *

The space shook slightly, as a large part of the pavilion building where Ling Tian was standing fell apart. Only part of the roof and walls were still standing firm, but it seemed that at any moment they would fall down even by just touching them.

Ling Tian had held back quite a lot, trying to keep the explosive power ripple from spreading.

"Nothing?" Ling Tian frowned even more.

His intuition was deepening even more.

Ling Tian took a deep breath and adjusted his state completely. The power of the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures flowed out almost completely, pouring it into the sword to the point of cracking it as he compressed the power into a small space.

The sword finally fell on the rock and a light, faint ripple of the aura spread to the surroundings, causing the pavilion to finally collapse and most of the Wen Clan's buildings to be destroyed as well.

A small crack of space suddenly opened up, close to the stone, letting out the terrifying force of the void and enveloping the stone briefly.

* Crackle... *

If it wasn't for Ling Tian's deep attention, he could barely hear the sound of something cracking slightly.

A faint wave of energy quickly shot out from the stone, spreading out into the surroundings and covering Ling Tian in the process. The space rippled completely in plain sight, like a calm lake being disturbed by a falling stone in the center.

A terrifying sense of danger and death covered Ling Tian for an instant, feeling stunned as he remained focused on the stone and quickly retreated a few meters.

The spirit sense was slashed fiercely, being wounded again to a degree that would take a long time to recover... and even his powerful fleshy body with a high level of refinement could not resist this wave of power and was covered in severe wounds completely, his internal organs trembled fiercely and a mouthful of blood filled Ling Tian's throat!

And yet, despite this, Ling Tian did not care about the wounds and only shock filled his mind. The horrible pain in the spirit sense and body did not even feel it.

"This is...!"

Ling Tian stared at the crack in the rock surface for several seconds before taking a cold breath, feeling an inexplicable feeling as his eyes looked at what was in front of him. He stepped closer, his arms outstretched and opened his hands.

Stupefaction struck him fiercely, his body petrified as his hands trembled slightly and he picked up the stone.

"... stellar stone?"

Ling Tian whispered in shock, feeling the faint, almost imperceptible explosive power that would completely explode him coming out of the tiny gap in the rock, covering his hands and body finally.

At this moment, a somewhat peculiar but unprecedented piece of information had flooded Ling Tian's mind.

This rock was The Legendary Stellar Stone!
