The Way of The Dao

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm Xuan Li opened her eyes full of excitement and joy. She stood up and stretched completely, moving her body gradually.

The heavenly tribulation had already ended a long time ago.

Then, Xuan Li disappeared from the place when she seemed to find an isolation barrier, entering without hesitation when she saw that her clothes were about to completely undo and expose much of her body after facing the tribulation. Some impurities were also discharged into her body again, so she created several water spells to cleanse and bathe herself.

"Miss, many congratulations for taking the first step to attain immortality!"

The old man congratulated and applauded Xuan Li once she finished bathing and changing clothes and appeared again. A mighty breath exuded from her, with an imposing and powerful feeling.

"Thank you, senior!" Xuan Li cupped her fists in gratitude. She could feel tremendous power contained in her body, and even felt that she could see much more in the world, although she still had yet to stabilize her base well and comprehend her new strength.

"At this time I would hand you the remaining inheritance left by the Primordial Warrior Princess for her successor, but it was what your sect ancestor handed over to you earlier..." The old man spoke with a bit of helplessness as he looked at Ling Tian.

"What my ancestor gave me?" Xuan Li blinked in confusion and she looked at Ling Tian. She remembered that Ling Tian had given her a very beautiful and eye-catching jade box, could that be it?

Ling Tian didn't flinch and kept looking at Xuan Li and the old man. Lang Qingzu was still sleeping in his arms.

"Do you have a problem that I gave it to her earlier?" Ling Tian raised his eyebrows and asked indifferently.

"No, not at all senior." The old man shook his head, but inside he felt bitter and helpless.

In the face of such superior power, how could he resist? Although his power had also reached the gateway to immortality, his intuition developed throughout his life alarmed him dangerously about this young man.

He also seemed to see that this young man's meridians were somewhat destroyed, but he thought no more. He would not meddle in these kinds of matters, perhaps in the end it would only be a trap for him to attack thinking he was crippled.

"I thought you had some complaint..."

Ling Tian commented casually, but causing the old man to smile somewhat bitterly.

"What's wrong?" Xuan Li asked somewhat confused. She could sense that the place is unstable and would collapse in a while.

"The inheritance has been handed over, so this place has fulfilled its function and will eventually disappear." The old man replied. A slight tone of sadness could be heard in his voice, but it was submerged in joy and excitement.

After all, the heritage of the sect and so on will not be lost forever in the long river of time!

"I see." Xuan Li nodded as she watched her hand, opening and closing it, feeling the tremendous power in her body. She could even see in her dantian a small soul figure of herself, with her same clothes, her same body figure, her same hair, her same face, her same expression.

How could this young man know anything about the past?

"However, one thing I don't understand is how it was that several powerhouses of that era fell and died, especially when they were at the end of the war, thus how they managed to disappear all the demonic beasts... does it have something to do with the formation that surrounded the world in the void dimension ?"

Ling Tian's pupils shrank slightly, staring at the old man intently. However, an invisible yet extremely powerful coercion could be slightly felt, scaring the old man for the first time.

"S-so you saw the formation in the Void Dimension?" The old man asked in terror.

This young man had seen the Great Seal of Divine Ancestral Protection that was in the terrifying void dimension?

Ling Tian's gaze became more fixed and direct upon hearing that this old man knew about the formation.

"Not only did I see it... I also destroyed it..." Ling Tian replied calmly, but still with his gaze on the frightened old man.

"Y-you d-destroyed it?" The old man stammered, his expression pale and somewhat fearful.

Ling Tian raised his eyebrow, but nothing more, waiting for the old man to respond.

"I shouldn't be surprised after everything I've seen you do..."

The old man let out a sigh with mixed feelings after a long time. He looked up and looked at Ling Tian, saying, "For you to be inside this place without any trouble and even interfere with the illusion of the false heart, it shows that you are not ordinary, and you are even in an unimaginable higher realm... now I understand everything." His voice contained honesty and some reverence.

Ling Tian was silent, still calmly looking at the old man without showing arrogance or humility, not even the slightest expression of surprise crossed his evidently calm eyes like a calm sea. His arms were still holding Lang Qingzu.

"The dark age of chaos dates back several million years, in which there was the great chaotic war, where all the cultivators of the heavenly earth continent fought endlessly against the endless demonic creatures that invaded our world."

"This old man served as the right hand and servant of the Primordial Warrior Princess in the fight against the demonic beasts for several centuries, leading a squadron on the front line of defense until its end."

"Unfortunately, the Primordial Warrior Princess, as well as other superpowers of the world fell at the end of the war, buying as much time as they could at the cost of their lives so that the Great Seal of Divine Ancestral Protection could be completed..."

"Who or who placed that formation?" Ling Tian interrupted the old man's words and asked solemnly.

"We don't know." The old man replied with a tinge of helplessness and said, "One day a man appeared, about a little over 30 years old, who wore a simple band that hung from his neck and shoulder and descended to part of his abdomen, as if it were a strange bandolier. He appeared before us on the day of the last meeting and said that he could place a formation around the world to seal it and that way, no demonic beast could invade..."

"No one knew the identity of this man, let alone where he had come from. Even our Primordial Warrior Princess was alarmed by her intuition, as if she couldn't even lift a finger against him before she was killed and without knowing how she died."

"Likewise, we were all amazed at this man's knowledge and skill of the Void Dimension, and even more so to be able to enter and travel in the Void Dimension and all his knowledge about it, such that he could place a web-like formation covering the world to protect it. His knowledge and experience of the Field of Formations far exceeded the formations' great masters around the world."

"But what we did not know, was that this Great Seal of Divine Ancestral Protection would not only protect the world from demonic beasts, but also sever the path to the higher plane. The immortal ascension call was cut off and no one could ascend to the great immortal world, leaving us trapped in this world without the possibility of escape. Even the Chi spirit of the world was greatly affected, diminishing greatly as time passed and making it more difficult to cultivate..."

The old man sighed sadly and somewhat grudgingly, recalling past memories of that time.

"When we tried to look for that man, we never found him. It's as if he disappeared from the face of the world and never existed. We never find any information about him, as if he suddenly appeared at that time of crisis."

"Unfortunately, once the formation was complete and the demonic beast invasion ceased, most of the various and powerful powers around the world had died trying to buy as much time as possible... even our Sect Master, the Primordial Warrior Princess, fell at the last moment, managing to protect us all in the end while only her personal halberd remained."
