The Way of The Dao

Haaah

Haaah

Haaah

Ling Tian was gasping heavily, while he lay on the grass in his Little World.

He did not have the strength to move now. All his energy was consumed by that movement he made to kill the Hellhound.

After several dozen breaths, he managed to sit up and lean against the tree beside him.

Ling Tian managed to take a spiritual and medicinal pill to replenish his energy and quickly heal the horrible wound on his left arm.

One stick of incense later, his energy was restored to just over 20% and the wound on his arm stopped bleeding.

Ufff

Ling Tian sighed.

Although he had immense experience in dealing with the demon beasts, it would be difficult to fight with his current cultivation. His strength was not the same as before, so he had to tread carefully and anticipate the movements of his enemy.

An hour later, Ling Tian recovered to 50% of his capacity while the wound on his left arm was completely healed. World Tree's vitality helped him too.

He looked around inside the small world, there was plenty of room where he could wander. The only thing that bothered Ling Tian was that he still couldn't take several of his belongings. These were behind the grey area that limited his passage.

He came out of his little world and looked at the corpse of the Cerberus. Without thinking, he took it into his little world. Then he released his spiritual sense and found a river. There was no demon beast nearby.

He wanted to wash and change his clothes, as the clothes he was wearing against the fight of the Hellhound were torn by the attacks he was receiving. The claw of the Hellhound even tore off almost half of his upper robes.

Standing in the middle of the river, letting the water wash away the dirt from his body, Ling Tian remembered about the state of the World Tree's vitality.

Immediately, he directed his spiritual sense to his heart.

Ling Tian was amazed when he entered his heart. Within his heart, there was a sea of his own, as if it were his whole essence of blood. In the midst of the sea, resided the immense World Tree.

Ling Tian turned his gaze to the tree. Somehow, he felt that the World Tree was looking at him too.

He knew that the World Tree had intelligence of its own, so it was not strange for him to feel that it was also watching him.

The World Tree gave Ling Tian a strange feeling.

This feeling was a little weird. He tried to sense more of its intentions.

After thinking about it, Ling Tian somehow came to a conclusion.

It seems that the World Tree would help him when he was hurt, but it would not help him forever.

The World Tree did not want Ling Tian to depend on its help forever. It wanted him to continue to depend on himself.

Ling Tian smiled bitterly as he understood the intent of the tree, so he could not avoid feeling a bit disappointed.

But he soon calmed down.

He had already been used to not depending on anyone. The World Tree was a gift when he released his sincere desires and it resonated with his soul, allowing the dead seed next to his heart to live again. This was the conclusion Ling Tian had reached after reflecting on how he revived the seed and became the World Tree.

All his life he had been without the World Tree, so he should not be trusted now that he had gained an amazing assistant.

He would still be dependent on himself.

After nearly an hour in the water, Ling Tian rose, and put on new robes.

Remembering what he had seen in his little world, Ling Tian entered it again.

He still couldn't access most of his things.

"Could it be that, if I try to expand space in this little world, I could push this grey area aside?"

Ling Tian wondered while he watched the grey area that delimited his path.

He was sure that as his cultivation continued to advance, this space would expand much further. But now, with his current cultivation, there wasn't much space available.

Ling Tian felt the space around the small world. He owned this place, so he could feel every corner of the little world. Before, he had tried to access his belongings with his consciousness, but there was a barrier that prevented him from doing that.

Ling Tian sat near the gray barrier, where there were some things nearby he could take if the plan he was formulating worked.

Ha!

Ling Tian tried to expand this gray barrier in front of him with the force of his sea of knowledge and his cultivation.

Fwoosh

Slowly, one could feel the barrier moving away in front of Ling Tian.

Ha ha ha!

He was panting from the effort he made trying to expand the space in his little world.

"It seems I was lucky..."

Ling Tian noted that there were several space rings, boxes and containers that he could now access. Although the immortal crystals and immortal weapons were still further away, he could not take them.

A helpless smile spread across his face, while he inspected what the space rings and containers had.

Huh?

Ling Tian found several beautiful, dazzling robes for women in one of the jade containers.

The corner of his lip rose when he remembered that he had purchased them long ago. He had almost forgotten them.

This is...

In one of the jade boxes that radiated a slight hint of cold, Ling Tian found a thin, exquisite sword.

"The Pure Winter Frost Sword..." Ling Tian muttered the name of the sword.

This sword had been obtained from ancient ruins in a remote world, stored in a hidden vault.

Ling Tian kept it in that jade box and had forgotten about it.

He found information about this sword, and mentioned that it was a spiritual sword that would choose its own owner. In time, the spiritual sword would grow along with its master, becoming an immortal weapon in the end. To do that, the owner would have to refine it for a long time and combine it together, becoming one with the sword.

He was just a low-level immortal at the time he found it, so if he pulled out that sword and they found out he had something like that, they would hunt him down and kill him to get that sword away from him.

Too bad it was a sword meant for a woman, therefore it would be useless for him, so he kept it and forgot about it until today when he found it.

He found other spiritual pills and some immortal ones for his use, which he put aside with the other pills he had.

Ling Tian took one last look at his little world before he left. He could no longer expand it, he had reached his limit.

He left his Little World and threw himself up into the sky on his sword, returning to his temporary home.

It had been several hours since he had said goodbye to Yun Mengxin, so it was too late. He wanted to take a good night's sleep.
