Chapter 940: This Path I Chose Is Far From Easy, Let Alone The Future That Awaits Me!
Ling Tian concentrated the rest of the day on continuing to heal his body.
In the presence of all the women, they could see how Ling Tian's skin and flesh began to heal slowly but steadily, growing back and regaining some of that soft white skin after a long time.
His bones were rejoined and repaired, his blood vessels strengthened and regained their pathways, and his organs returned to their normal state. Tendons, ligaments and muscles were gradually repaired, growing once more before a healthy, white and much stronger skin covered the whole body.
Although there were still some parts of Ling Tian's body that still showed some muscle and bone, just over half of his body had already recovered, healing completely. A big difference compared to the first few days.
"May I come in, Master?"
After a while, a male voice came from outside, causing Ling Tian to open his eyes.
"Come in." Ling Tian responded, looking somewhat confused as he saw all the women inside, sitting around him as they watched every move he made even the tiniest of movements.
These days, these women would come and go without asking many questions, but his male disciples would respectfully ask before entering every time they came to see him, as if an agreement had been formed that only women had direct pass to this place and men had to wait for confirmation before they could enter.
Ling Tian didn't want to bother with this kind of thinking from the women anymore, so he put the confusion to the side of his head. Besides, being surrounded by beauties who cared about him, warmed and made his heart proud... who wouldn't want to have beauties by his side, caring about his wellbeing?!
Once Ling Tian answered, a figure entered. It was Hao Zhentian."What's wrong?"
"It's something that's related to you, Master... I wouldn't bother you if I had no choice!"
Seeing almost all the women in this place, Hao Zhentian was a little surprised but regained his composure quickly. He immediately focused his gaze on Ling Tian.
Knowing about Ling Tian's situation, Hao Zhentian perfectly understood the need for Ling Tian to recover calmly and steadily, so that no hidden wounds would remain on his body.
Ling Tian observed Hao Zhentian's serious expression, and after a few seconds he gently nodded, "An important guest came?"
"Y-yes!" Hao Zhentian nodded with a bit of surprise that Ling Tian seemed to know about the matter, but he quickly regained his seriousness and explained, "The Sect Master, Shou Gonyun, who is the current leader of the Myriads of the Emperor's Supreme Sword Sect, came to our sect! Moreover, his disciple and one of the ancestors of his sect came with him!"
Hearing Hao Zhentian, Zhen Bingluo, Gao Xue and Gao Yue couldn't help but be stunned. The Myriads of the Emperor's Supreme Sword Sect was among the strongest sects ranked second in the entire cultivation world, only below the Heavenly Great Power Sect!
Although they had a good relationship with this sect, and knew its leader and several sect elders personally, what really surprised them was that an ancestor had come out and personally come to their sect!
An ancestor of these strong and powerful sects is clearly a cultivator at the peak of the great ascension realm, just like them. But these cultivators had lived much longer, having more experience and hidden cards up their sleeves. A move from them would really cause a commotion.
"Grand Brother, do they really want to see Master? Master still needs a little more time to recover..." Zhen Bingluo quickly asked with a frown, her voice with a respectful tone as she spoke to Hao Zhentian.
Although these ancestors have come out, they are powerful cultivators in the great ascension realm as well, the same realm as them! Their sect may be small, but they were not afraid if trouble arose, especially with Ling Tian present. Their Master is the strongest being in this world, so they somehow regained that supreme protection from the past.
"Don't worry, Sister Bingluo, I know Master needs to recover."
Hao Zhentian nodded at Zhen Bingluo's words, and immediately took out a jade bottle from his storage ring.
"Cloud Heart Grass!"
Mu Shuiruo exclaimed as she saw another heavenly grade spiritual herb, the one that the heavenly pill required, appeared in Hao Zhentian's hands.
"Once the Sect Master heard of our return, he had come to visit the sect a while ago. When he confirmed the existence that you, Master, the ancestor of our sect had finally appeared, and that we were looking for various spiritual herbs, the Sect Master, Shou Gonyun, came back again and brought this spiritual herb that his Sect had in possession."
"And they want to meet me in return?"
Hao Zhentian had finished explaining and Ling Tian asked with a faint smile.
"Yes, Master." Hao Zhentian nodded as he handed the jade bottle containing the heavenly spiritual herb to Mu Shuiruo, and then he added, "In fact, the one who wants to meet you is the ancestor of his sect... he told me that this spiritual herb is a gift of good intention to continue to maintain good interests as fellow sects, and that if you did not want to meet them, they would not take back this spiritual herb. It's just a simple request from them."
"I see..." Ling Tian narrowed his eyes. He knew a little about this Myriads of the Emperor's Supreme Sword Sect, and he knew that there were strong cultivators who cultivated the way of the sword in that place. Most of their cultivators focused on sword and blades.
"If it wasn't so important, I wouldn't bother you with this, Master."
Hao Zhentian added for the last time. Although they have good relations with this sect, Ling Tian's health issue is more important at the moment. But with the presence of this spiritual herb that Ling Tian needs as well, it completely changes the matter, so Hao Zhentian wanted to know Ling Tian's answer since it totally involved him.
"Alright, no problem!" Ling Tian nodded with an expression full of calmness, but he immediately said, "However, I haven't fully recovered yet, so it might require a couple more days! If they are willing to wait, I won't mind seeing them when I'm ready!"
Ling Tian smiled faintly.
Hao Zhentian blinked in surprise and then nodded seriously, "Understood, Master! I will let them know!"
Without delaying any longer and not wanting to disturb this place, Hao Zhentian quickly left.
"You shouldn't overexert yourself... how about taking a few more days off?"
Yun Mengxin suddenly said, attracting Ling Tian's gaze.
All this time, Ling Tian could feel Yun Mengxin's gaze on him, not leaving him for even a second. Ling Tian could also vaguely sense Yun Mengxin's feelings and thoughts that tried to go unnoticed or kept hidden in her heart, as if the huge worry and anxiety still burdened her heart but she didn't want him to notice and worry.
"It's alright, there's no need for that, I already feel much better and it won't take long for me to recover... besides, you of all people know that this path I chose is far from easy, let alone the future that awaits me!" Ling Tian smiled softly, reached out his hand and took Yun Mengxin's soft hand beside him, conveying his feelings through their special connection.
Yun Mengxin finally smiled slightly, nodding a few seconds later as she felt the intense feeling filled with confidence in Ling Tian.
"Then, if you really plan to do what you have in mind, promise us that you'll be very careful!"
Tang Wanying added firmly and seriously as she looked at Ling Tian. She and every woman in this place never wanted to see Ling Tian in such a state again, suffering horribly.
"It's alright!" Ling Tian nodded with a gentle smile, but one that carried a seriousness as well.
Ling Tian had told them about his plan to follow, the depth and extent of divine techniques and more, especially the taboo cultivation technique. Likewise, he also shared his thoughts and theories about the will of heaven on him, explaining that there seemed to be a hidden enemy force that gave him a bad feeling, causing his intuition to alarm him in depth, and that The Sacred Heavenly Scriptures and the other legendary items he obtained did not seem to be what they should be.
If what Ling Tian thought about the heavens were to turn out to be true, then he has no choice but to continue on this path he is on. And if not, Ling Tian will still continue on this chosen path.
* Rumble... *
Some time later, a slight tremor that could barely be felt ran through the place. The mountain moved slightly before calming down in moments.
Qing Sha and Lan Yin, who had fallen asleep on Ling Tian's legs while clinging to him, woke up at once when they felt a faint wave of energy touch their bodies. Their eyes suddenly opened and, as if they were little guardians, both girls looked outwards while protecting Ling Tian with their little bodies.
"Don't be frightened! I think I know what caused it!"
Ling Tian patted both of the girls' little heads, and quickly calmed all the women down when they thought there might be a fight somewhat close to the place.
After a while, the sun shining brightly in the sky seemed to move quickly towards the horizon within seconds, allowing the darkness of the night to come as the bright moon appeared in the night sky, with the stars shining all around it.
This alarmed the entire cultivation world!
"If you go out and concentrate while trying to perceive the changes that the sun and moon will bring in a few moments, it will be of great help to your cultivations!"
Smiling cheerfully, Ling Tian looked at the women and encouraged them to go out and meditate on the coming events that were about to occur. Even Xue Ning, Zhen Bingluo Gao Xue and Gao Yue, who have cultivation bases at the top of the world, could also benefit from this!
"Go!"
Ling Tian patted both of their little heads, making Lan Yin and Qing Sha follow their big sisters once they decided to leave the cave and fly towards the top of the mountain itself.
Yun Mengxin and his wives looked at him, reluctant to leave even though it would be a great help to their cultivations. But Ling Tian shook his head and encouraged them to leave: "I will wait for you here."
The women nodded and together with Lan Yin and Qing Sha, they settled on the mountaintop and focused on the sky, which the moon had set and the sun had risen once more.
Deng Tianjin, Ying Chen, Shin Wei and Sun Xiang, who were still watching around, also sat deep into what was happening when Ling Tian's spirit sense reached them, transmitting thoughts to them.
Xuebai, the little white fox, jumped onto Ling Tian's shoulder, looked at him calmly as she wagged her tail behind. Then she looked up and looked at the sky, where the sun and moon were beginning to appear faster and faster, but she did not move and stayed with Ling Tian, as if she did not attach so much importance to what was happening.
Ling Tian continued to sit cross-legged in tranquility, he looked up at the sky from the large mountain cave and smiled; this event was being caused by Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei!
