The Way of The Dao

Ze family.

Shortly after Ze Long and his two bodyguards had left the place, they arrived at his family's residence.

"Uncle Shan, why didn't you get rid of that bastard?! We could have easily taken Wanying without anyone noticing! It was the perfect opportunity!" Ze Long barked fiercely at Ze Shan as he was forced to leave the site.

Ze Shan did not listen to Ze Long's complaints. He was still traumatized about what had happened. The fear and horror that this young man gave him had been felt to the bone

"Forget it!" Ze Long shouted angrily as he headed to his room. This humiliation will bring it back a thousand times. He will make Tang Wanying uniquely his.

Ze Shan and the other guy didn't move even with Ze Long's scream.

After an incense stick, they barely managed to get out of their shock. They decided to hide this problem and not say anything. They did not want to be punished for losing the face of Ze family, so they would avoid saying or reporting what had happened, and with Ze Long's personality, they were sure that he would not say anything too.

Both men were not sure if what had happened to them was real or not...

…

Chuckles

By the time father and son of the Tang family entered the room, Ling Tian was gone.

He had quickly cast an invisibility spell and escaped without warning.

Not five minutes had passed and he was already in the center of the city, a long way from the Tang family's residence.

Ling Tian started walking very slowly when nostalgia and sadness returned to him.

Why do I feel such deep pain when I remember my family... my mother?

This pain I feel... is not exactly related to her...

It's like... like that pain of missing is for someone else...

Someone who was on the same level as my foster mother...

Would she be... my real mother...

But... where would she be?

Where is the family that gave me life?

Why have they abandoned me on a lower plane?!

Who are they?

Where are they now?

Are they alive or really... no longer alive?

Why don't I remember anything before I was 8?!

Have they erased my memory to prevent me from not remembering them?

Ling Tian tried to shake his head while trying to eliminate those depressing feelings he was feeling at the time.

The moment he had looked at the family photos of the Tang family and heard Tang Wanying talking to her mother, the pain in his heart reappeared, but this time, it was more intense...

Ling Tian kept walking as if he was dead, all his concentration was being focused on those depressing feelings and the memories he had about his family.

Ling Tian knew somehow that the real family that had 'abandoned' him as a child were cultivators.

He couldn't help but pull out the medallion that had a word written on it: 'LING'.

This was the medallion that his parents had given him before he died. It was an artifact used by cultivators. He had understood it when he set foot on the path of cultivation. Only after some time, he confirmed that his family were not only powerful cultivators, they were from the immortal world. The medallion he held in his hands was an immortal artifact...

He looked for clues to his family once he had ascended to the immortal world, but never found them. There were only records of one family named Ling, but they had disappeared several years ago along with other families in a battle with demonic beasts. The immortal world was in chaos at the time.

Ling Tian smiled miserably while he took one last look at the medallion and then put it away.

He already had a family now; his disciples. He would protect them from anything that happened, so he had to find a way to return to them.

Ling Tian's spirit had transcended a small layer, as if small shackles had been broken, and now it allowed him to think a little more clearly, as if the problems that were wandering through his mind many years ago now had an answer.

His soul even seemed to have been improved a bit. His soul strength along with his spirit had undergone a qualitative change apparently.

Ling Tian renewed his mind and his determination, and that slightly gloomy atmosphere that appeared around him had completely disappeared. A warm and happy aura was being radiated from his being.

Ling Tian kept walking while he continued to check the state of his body. By the time he had emerged from his trance of remembering his past and responding to Tang Wanying, that mysterious energy had done more than strengthen and transcend his soul and spirit.

He released his spiritual sense into his Dantian. He had felt that some of that energy had gone to that place.

Huh?

The moment Ling Tian had verified his Dantian, he was a little surprised.

He had checked his entire Dantian for any strange occurrences that might occur, but the only strange thing was the place where his cultivation resided; the heavenly seal that contained his immortal strength had been altered and almost seemed to have been lifted

What happened?!

Ling Tian was shocked to observe that, almost a heavenly seal restriction had been lifted!

If it had been lifted completely...

His cultivation level would have risen again!

He couldn't help but pucker up when he saw he was still stuck in Chi Gathering's Peak Stage.

"Ha! At least I know my cultivation will return without a doubt. Who knows? Maybe tomorrow or in a few days, the layer of the heavenly seal will be completely weakened and thus, more of my power will return..."

Ling Tian didn't get carried away with frustration. He knew that sooner or later, he would return to his peak.

"It seems that if my soul or spirit goes through some tribulation or something like that, it will undergo a transformation and that will allow me to get rid of the restrictive layers of the heavenly seal.

Because the demon in my heart influenced my soul and spirit, I was able to transcend a small achievement and almost lift another layer of restriction

It is as if my spirit is the key to open the lock, which is the heavenly seal..."

Ling Tian grimaced at the thought of this. It seems he has to face many tribulations again for his cultivation to return completely...

He wasn't so keen to continue enjoying the scenery of the star city's shopping centre, so he decided to return home and continue cultivating.

Although he was very sure that cultivating would not help much to his current state, he decided to still continue cultivating.

Suddenly.

"I found you..."

The moment he decided to leave, Ling Tian felt a gentle tug on a portion of his tunic on his right arm. A nervous and excited voice was heard at the same time.

He turned around to see who had stopped him on the way. Ling Tian could not help but be a little surprised while he raised his eyebrows as he realized who it was
