The Way of The Dao

Chapter 875 (Vol 3) – Legacy Of A Goddess Of Life? [II]

"So its brother Ling!"

A cheerful voice spread through the middle of the forest as a group number of young people walked among trees and flowers, taking a specific direction.

In front of this group number of youths, stood the young man who seemed to be their leader and Ling Tian, who the latter smiled faintly at his remark

"My name is Shang Moyu, but you can call me brother Moyu!" Shang Moyu added shortly and said with a big smile as he extended his hand back and looked at the others, saying, "And all of them are my fellow sect disciples as well as best friends and we consider each other as great siblings!"

"Greetings senior brother Ling!"

All the others greeted Ling Tian with big smiles, while several of them tried to say their names at the same time.

"I am Mio Yidan, but you can call me Dandan!" A cheerful girl quickly walked forward a few steps approaching Ling Tian and Shang Moyu, attracting their attentions as she said with a big smile and her eyes shone brightly at the sight of Ling Tian. She looked to be about 15 years old, one of the youngest people of all.

Mio Yidans bright eyes watched Ling Tian, she even tried to move closer to him.

"Dandan! Dont be disrespectful, remember that if you dont want to cause trouble you should speak very respectfully to others!"

"Greetings, senior brother! My name is Chang Yi, but you can call me sister Yier!"

This woman, Chang Yi, cupped her fists in greeting and respect to Ling Tian. Although she tried to remain calm, Chang Yi was still nervous and shy in front of Ling Tian.

"Its okay, you dont have to be nervous, I wont get angry." Ling Tian laughed lightly and waved his hand, indicating to them that they didnt have to be so nervous around him.

These two women had approached him, while the others still somewhat refrained from doing so. Even the other two women did not dare to greet him directly, even though their expressions betrayed them.

"Brother Ling, forgive Dandan, its just that shes still young and hasnt been out of the sect much..." Shang Moyu quickly apologized to Ling Tian, smiling somewhat helplessly.

Shang Moyu tried to sneak a peek at Ling Tians cultivation level, but was surprised when he couldnt and his manner of expressing towards him became more respectful.

If he couldnt see his cultivation level, clearly Ling Tian should be stronger than them.

Not only Shang Moyu, everyone else was aware that Ling Tian might be stronger than them.

Moreover, Ling Tians clothes looked very fine and luxurious, unlike them who wore poor and shabby clothes. It was easy to think that Ling Tian should have a powerful background, or at least enough wealth to live comfortably.

"They really have nothing to worry about." Ling Tian smiled and shook his head, changing the subject at once, "Can you tell me more about this goddess of life?"

Once Ling Tian had told them that he was lost and didnt remember much of the way around this area, Shang Moyu and the others agreed to let him go with them.

Ling Tian was curious about the news that had spread, having a good chance that this goddess of life was Luo Hongmeng.

Moreover, these youths were walking together, and indeed they did not even have flying swords, much less any special flying artifacts. It was easy to tell that these youths were poor cultivators.

Seeing that Ling Tian smiled calmly without being bothered by Mio Yidans actions, everyone sighed in relief and finally began to smile as their nerves subsided.

"So you dont know anything about the news that a legacy of a goddess of life appeared?" Shang Moyu asked Ling Tian.

Ling Tian shook his head. Although he was in the capital, there was no news of this supposed goddess of life.

The news probably barely spread, or maybe the news itself is not that credible and thats why it didnt spread quickly.

"Then I will explain!"

Seeing Ling Tian shake his head, Shang Moyu did not show disdain or arrogance and instead he smiled with excitement.

"A few days ago, it is said that an old man who wandered all his life got lost on his way home when it was night. Since he had no cultivation and had to rest, the old man looked for a place to spend the night, when suddenly he was chased by some wild beasts and ran in a random direction, causing him to accidentally fall over a cliff!"

When Shang Moyu began to recount, the others were silent, as if they also wanted to hear again what they knew.

"The cliff was not that deep, and there was some undergrowth and plants that cushioned his fall. Once the old man recovered, he got up and walked, and after walking for a long time he found the remains of a small destroyed and old house, and after he kept walking, he realized he had found what looked like a small abandoned village."

"After walking for a long time, the old man went deeper into the village and finally found some houses that still had roofs and walls without falling down, so he chose one at random to sleep in and leave the next day."

"But when he went in and moved some things, the old man said he heard some things move and the place shook slightly, then, a bright light that seemed to illuminate the place as if it were a sun in the middle of the night rose above the place where he was!"

"The old man looked up and was dumbfounded when he saw the bright light take shape and the image of a beautiful immortal goddess appeared!"

"This immortal goddess looked at him and nodded slightly, and soon after, she waved her hand and a green colored pill appeared in front of the old man!"

"When the old man looked up to thank the goddess, she had already disappeared. But in his hands he still had that green pill."

"As he had no idea about the function of the pill, the old man finally decided to make the decision and swallowed it, and subsequently slept. But when he woke up the next day, the old man had become a middle-aged man, rejuvenating his appearance, and even felt that he had become several times stronger, as if he could kill a cow with one punch!"

"Wanting to thank the goddess, the old man searched all over the place and only found remnants of a small village, as well as some places where there was an invisible wall outside a small building that was still standing."

"Since he could not break through that invisible wall, the old man realized that there must be another treasure inside, so he decided to return to the village where he lived and seek the help of some acquaintances."

"However, the news somehow quickly leaked out and the whole town knew about it, spreading to the other nearby towns and counties."

"Once many verified with their own eyes that the old man had become a middle-aged man and even managed to enter the First Stage of Chi Gathering, everyone went crazy and excited when the rumors were confirmed, and somehow the secret location of the goddess that only the old man knew about was leaked."

"A green pill with an image of a flower on its surface that could rejuvenate a dying old man, as well as allow a mortal who had no qualifications to cultivate to enter the cultivation path, it is undoubtedly the treasure of an immortal goddess!"

Shang Moyu finished explaining with great excitement and expectations as he spoke about the immortal goddess of life. Mio Yidan, Chang Yi and the others also had hopeful expressions, wanting to at least get a treasure of this immortal goddess or at least be able to see her.

"A green pill with an image of a flower on its surface?" Ling Tian smiled slightly, nodding inwardly.

Currently there are many powerful treasures and cultivation resources, as well as medicinal pills or elixirs that could greatly rejuvenate a person, or heal their wounds even if they are on the verge of death.

Pills for unqualified mortals to cultivate are not rare either, but they are complicated for an alchemist to make.

However, a pill that could rejuvenate and at the same time allow one to enter the path of cultivation is very rare. It was obvious that it had to be a mid to high level pill, very powerful but with no danger in its side effects.

"Such a heavenly treasure can certainly only come from an immortal goddess, the goddess of life, so there will undoubtedly be other treasures in the place that are perhaps still hidden." Shang Moyu nodded at Ling Tians question.

"And you want to try your luck if you can find something?" Ling Tian asked.

"Yes! We want to see if we can get something from the place, even if its just a few crumbs..." Shang Moyu smiled somewhat sheepishly as he scratched his head.

It was obvious that they wouldnt be the only ones, and that even stronger people would go looking for luck as well. It wouldnt be strange if powerhouses from important places appeared in that place as well.

"Big brother, you also want to look for the treasures? Or do you want to see the goddess?"

Suddenly, Mio Yidan grabbed Ling Tians arm and she asked full of curiosity.

"Dandan!" Chang Yi paled and quickly scolded Mio Yidan in a low voice, reaching out her arms and pulling Mio Yidan towards her to let go of Ling Tian.

"Big sister, I just want to know if big brother wants to see the goddess..." Mio Yidan pouted towards Chang Yi and then she looked at Ling Tian again at once, "Big brother, how strong are you? Are you strong like big brother Moyu?"

Ling Tian couldnt help but smile at Mio Yidans behavior, remembering Lan Yin, Qing Sha and unexpectedly Lang Qingzu as well.

"Dandan!" Chang Yi wanted to cover Mio Yidans small mouth seeing her so mischievous.

Shang Moyu and the others couldnt help but look at Ling Tian with guilty expressions, apologizing with their gazes.

However, they all wanted to know Ling Tians cultivation level.

Seeing his calm and composed demeanor, plus the fact that they couldnt see his cultivation level, everyone thought that Ling Tian was a powerful genius with a strong cultivation level!

"Uhm... Im a little stronger than your big brother Moyu." Ling Tian smiled at Mio Yidan, answering her question.

"Really? Then you must be a genius cultivator!" Mio Yidan blinked in surprise before she smiled grandly and added, "Im also very strong even though Im 15 years old! A few days ago I broke through and advanced to the Seventh Stage of Chi Gathering!"

Mio Yidans expression was cheerful and proud as she said the last, as if she wanted to tell Ling Tian that she too was a genius.

Ling Tian laughed slightly amused, seeing that Mio Yidans pride and arrogance were simply genuine but understanding of her childhood, understanding that she had managed to cultivate to such a level despite being very young.

Although, in other places reaching the peak of the Chi Gathering realm at a young age and under 15 years old was normal and extremely common, in these types of places with low spiritual energy such people could be considered geniuses by having a decent talent.

Only when they leave their places of origins for the first time and venture to new places that have a higher level of power, they realize that they have been frogs at the bottom of a well, to finally reaffirm or abandon their previous goals if they have a strong or weak mentality.
