Ling Tian appeared in a dark empty space.
Cracks spreading out like a huge web quickly surrounded him as a subtle yet terrifying spiritual energy seemed to pierce through the space itself.
"You still won't appear before me?"
Ling Tian said coldly as the halberd appeared in his hand again. He waved the halberd and broke through space!
* Boom! *
Space was shaken completely with laws and principles being destroyed, while cracks widened and new ones appeared in the blink of an eye!
Several powerful auras quickly covered Ling Tian, among one of them, the immortal aura he had faced before. The immortal aura surrounded Ling Tian and he finally noticed the halberd aura.
"That's better!" Ling Tian finally laughed, feeling a terrifying pressure over his entire body as this immortal force surrounded him.
* Roar! *
* Grrr! *
* Roarr! *
Roars of spiritual beasts echoed throughout space as the next moment a wave of hundreds and thousands of ferocious spiritual beasts appeared in front of Ling Tian!
In a single glance Ling Tian perceived over a thousand spiritual beasts that were about to turn into demonic beasts rushing towards him from all directions!
The auras of these spiritual beasts were no less powerful than the Great Ascension state's expert cultivators!
The [Sword Domain] expanded rapidly, eliminating hundreds and thousands of half-demonic beasts as soon as they entered the range of the domain, disappearing when the force of thousands of swords slaughtered them like slicing tofu easily.
However, the [Sword Domain] was not enough as more and more ferocious beasts kept appearing, crowding around Ling Tian before being killed by the sword force.
The ferocious spiritual beasts maintained no rationality of their own and their savage instincts guided them to their own deaths.
The void trembled as a giant hand appeared. This dozens of meters long giant hand glowed an intense golden color as the previous rune Ling Tian had seen appeared above them once again.
A strange melody filled with an intention of peace and harmony was suddenly heard.
"Buddha chants?" Ling Tian frowned finally the kind of power and the strange runic symbol.
"You hide behind good while your hidden intentions are full of killing and cruelty!" Ling Tian sneered and waved the halberd towards the giant hand descending on him, shattering space again!
Space was broken again, this time with many more ferocious beasts appearing and surrounding Ling Tian without stopping!
The [Sword Domain] remained active around Ling Tian, with each fierce spiritual beast being slaughtered as they approached. Nevertheless, fierce beasts still kept appearing frequently, rioting around as slowly the [Sword Domain] seemed to lose effectiveness and slow down its killing speed as more powerful fierce beasts appeared.
The distance range of the [Sword Domain] between Ling Tian and the ferocious beasts was at least several kilometers at first, slowly reducing as more and more ferocious beasts that exuded terrifying pressure and auras appeared.
Ling Tian did not flinch at this as he continued to stare in a certain direction. The halberd in his hands swung and shifted, slashing ferocious beasts in the distance and quickly at those that managed to resist his [Sword Domain] for a few seconds before dying. His body seemed to react on its own while his gaze was elsewhere!
* Ohhh~ *
* Ring~ *
* Ohmm~ *
Suddenly, faint and light tones filled the space, bringing a sense of peace and relaxation to oneself. Songs of birds and nature made one meditate and let one's guard down.
Then, a huge white lotus flower appeared above Ling Tian several dozen meters away, covering the entire sky and illuminating every space totally eliminating the darkness!
* Zheen~ *
Ling Tian watched as the lotus flower that was so beautiful and perfect to look at spread its petals, exuding a sense of well-being and calmness. Each petal stretched out into infinity, carrying with it a sense of peace as it created a world filled with tranquility and goodness. Even the ferocious beasts seemed to stop for a moment as rationality appeared in them again and their savage instincts were halted.
Ling Tian's vicious thrill of fighting and killing intent were replaced by calmness, peace and kindness in his heart!
At this moment, the dark and lifeless, empty and endless space had become a heavenly paradise, the world dreamed of by mortals after death, living in peace and quiet.
The faces of Yun Mengxin, Mu Shuiruo, Tang Wanying, Long Yuyin and Zhang Xinya appeared in his mind as his heart began to ache, feeling that sense of loneliness and longing, the longing toward his beloved wives. Even the faces of Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei appeared at once along with their wives too!
The faces of Shang Qingwu, Xue Ning, Lan Yin, Qing Sha, Zhao Yu, Gu Yan, Zhen Bingluo, Xuanyuan Ling, Hao Zhentian, Shin Wei, Lu Wuhu, Nalan Ziqing, Xuan Li, Lang Qingzu... Li Fengyuan, Di Ji, Feng Zhiyun... Tang Zhi, Zhang Ruoyan, Tang Wei, Zhang Chao... the faces of his parents, his cousins, his older sister Ling Wan'er... the faces of all his loved ones appeared each and every one in Ling Tian's mind.
Ling Tian's heart soon began to fill with fear and anxiety as he thought of the dangers his beloved wives and loved ones would face in his absence!
Ling Tian closed his eyes when it seemed he could not bear it. But strangely, the halberd in his hands kept moving and slaying the ferocious beasts without stopping.
Ling Tian's heart soon began to fill with worries and fears, anxieties and thoughts of his wives and loved ones being killed by strangers, dying halfway, abandoning him, hating him, being lost forever... all kinds of thoughts appeared in him.
Ling Tian's eyelashes quivered briefly, his eyelids closed briefly before he lifted them slightly, staring into nothingness as his mind plunged into darkness with a heart full of pain. His jet black eyes held that perfect, mysterious glow, not even a ripple crossed in them as an indifferent calm remained untouchable.
"It's been a long time since my demons of the heart had appeared like this..."
Ling Tian's voice was finally heard, his eyelids held slightly open, feeling the fullness of his entire heart, witnessing even the most painful horrors and fears in his heart.
"But you're going to need a lot more than a soul attack to kill me!" Ling Tian's eyes finally opened wide, staring straight into the void. His jet black eyes as beautiful and perfect as the sea of stars in the galaxy turned cold and intense as his spirit sense finally grew closer to this terrifying spiritual force. Although the pain was real and with one carelessness he could fall into madness and doom, Ling Tian felt that love and connection deep in his heart that connected him to his beloved wives, constantly reminding him of reality.bender
The mysterious but intense energy of his consciousness sea flowed swiftly, converging in front of Ling Tian in the form of a transparent arrow.
"Although my spiritual force hasn't recovered much, I can still perform other types of soul attack!" Ling Tian's eyes flashed briefly as he felt the energy in his consciousness sea mysteriously become stronger with each passing second even though his size was that of an ordinary cultivator at the Separation and Reunion state Early Stage. No doubt this was a result of the mysterious little sprout at the center of his consciousness sea.
Moreover, his consciousness sea still maintained the prestige of the terrifying, supreme power it once held!
The white lotus flower continued to linger in the sky, radiating a light filled with peace and tranquility, with Buddha chants leading to enlightenment and wisdom.
'The Twin Flowers of Life and Death...'
Suddenly, a strange, very familiar but very vague voice fleetingly crossed Ling Tian's consciousness stunning him and halting the soul attack he had planned to unleash. His deep intuition had manifested itself intensely at this moment, expressing to him to perceive within his soul.
Ling Tian closed his eyes and concentrated quickly, perceiving with all his being that mysterious sensation and vague memory that was quickly being lost. The arrow in front of him kept flowing with the spiritual force of his consciousness sea, ready to shoot without any sign of changing or unraveling.
The ferocious beasts were approaching and surrounding Ling Tian faster just like the radiant light of the white lotus flower, quickly catching up to Ling Tian. The [Sword Domain] was still active as well as the halberd moving around Ling Tian and creating another kind of protective force against the white lotus flower light.
Ling Tian slightly opened his eyes and looked directly at the white lotus flower in the sky.
"[Flower of the Life Destruction]!"
The transparent arrow made from Ling Tian's consciousness sea spiritual force was instantly shot out, piercing through the white lotus flower and destroying it in the process as it pierced through the void!
