The Way of The Dao

Chapter 315 Recalling The Past (8)

Ling Tian's hesitant gaze made the girls think that the next thing he would say might be something unpleasant. Although they had many questions about everything he said, they preferred not to ask anything at this point.

Nevertheless, the girls showed a soft and understanding smile, trying to express to him that he should not worry and could continue.

Yun Mengxin had intertwined her delicate fingers with his, so she added a little more strength while her eyes and expression conveyed calm and confidence.

Ling Tian hesitated for a few seconds before observing their confident expressions towards him. If he was really going to reveal his past, then he would have to be as honest as he could with all of them.

He took a deep breath before continuing.

"Transporting himself to those strange, abandoned worlds by means of the natural formations, that young man began to look for any resource that would increase his cultivation, and then he would leave that world after further increasing his strength, returning to the original world.

This would be his strange way of becoming stronger...

... and, because he was alone in that world, he had no one to trust and quickly became cold and lonely as his strength increased."

Ling Tian hesitated a little and quickly calmed down, shaking his head.

"Some Immortals would still follow his trail and start chasing him again when he returned to the great world.

He knew that he had been marked by several powerful Immortals, and there were only two ways to get rid of those marks: by becoming stronger and getting rid of that mark on his body himself, or by asking someone else to help him.

Since the second option was impossible since he didn't know anyone powerful enough to help him, he had to quickly increase his cultivation, while being chased around while he looked for teleportation formations.

While being chased all his life without being able to rest for a second, he would have to survive on his own, alone and with no one to lean on, healing himself like a wretched dog licking his wounds in an unknown and lonely place, feeling cold and loneliness all his life.

Hence why his feelings and mainly his character became cold and indifferent, completely unemotional to the point of seeming like someone else... although there were a few people he could trust a little and who still gave him some encouragement...

But finally, the evil and coldness of the world transformed him over time, beginning to resemble all those arrogant and indifferent people .

He entered many worlds, cultivating within for a long time, even spending almost a hundred years inside while on the great world no more than 50 years would pass. Some of those worlds would be like that rare second world, spending only a few months or years inside and in the main world more than 10 years would pass. There were also less than ten worlds where he would have found human life, normal Mortals and Immortal cultivators like himself...

In an Abandoned World, he obtained a strange mask that had mysterious detailed patterns of dragons on its entire surface, but which wonderfully shaped a complete dragon's face.

Since that mask could protect him even from the spirit senses of the highly cultivated Immortals, he began to use that mask to hide his identity and face. That way no one could know about his current identity in the future.

As time passed, he began to draw the attention of the world due to his actions and especially the mask that represented him.

His evil actions and along with that unique and strange mask of a dragon's face gave him several nicknames as time went by. All these nicknames were related mainly by the mask.

Of course he would take revenge on those cultivators who chased him in the beginning; once his cultivation increased several stages or he entered the next realm, he would go and take revenge on those guys, killing not only them, but all their families and more, becoming a true demon...please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

He would begin to be feared by many as his strength gradually increased, for they said that he killed Mortals, Immortals, Buddhas, and Demons equally. They even said that he could kill Immortals above his own level of strength.

... E-even on one of those worlds where he had found people, he lived there for a thousand years while becoming someone important in that world due to his powerful cultivation and getting a nickname: Devil Emperor or Demon Lord because he ruled with an empowerment and tyranny, but... in the end, due to an illogical and ruthless reason, he ended up killing all those people without caring who they were, letting no one live and without feeling the slightest regret or discomfort towards himself...

In short, all along his way to becoming very strong he killed tens of thousands of Immortals, creating mountains and rivers of blood and corpses in his path..."

Ling Tian kept his head down and did not dare to look into the eyes of the women, not wanting to observe their disappointing and probably fearful expressions. He only knew that Yun Mengxin would still be calm and composed, as she had seen his memories and witnessed much of what he faced in his life.

Leaving no time for a heavy and strange silence, he spoke immediately.

"He had become completely cold and ruthless, unemotional, killing anyone for the slightest aggression or trouble they made him...

However, if it were not mainly for two people who would become special to him in the future, that young man would end up completely discarding his Heart Dao and would finally become unemotional, becoming lonely and evil all because he wanted to become very strong...

His cultivation advanced constantly, to the point that everyone knew about him and about how he was rapidly increasing his level of cultivation, since it is supposed that to advance some realms, especially the middle and higher levels, it would take hundreds of years and even thousands of years for a single stage, while he had advanced several realms in almost an average of 100 years.

He gained more knowledge and understood that there was a mysterious difference in the relationship of time and space between those abandoned worlds and the great world, but since he was interested in becoming stronger quickly, he decided to seek the answer when he had the strength to support himself.

Time passed quickly with him cultivating on those Abandoned Worlds for an average of nearly two thousand years while exploiting all the great natural resources that he found in his journey. In the main world only about 150 years had passed...

His aptitude as a powerful potential cultivator became known, with people wondering how such a person could quickly increase his cultivation when it was really impossible to do so in such a short time.

Few people would have an immense and almost similar aptitude to his, but it was rare in him, for he was alone and unsupported by anyone.

Immortals with a high level of cultivation began to persecute him as well; mainly with the excuse that he was a demon and still killed even innocents in his path, while the real reason for their persecution was to take away all his things. They thought that he had a great inheritance or legacy with endless resources that increased his cultivation rapidly, therefore, many people wanted to steal his ring to keep those endless resources.

But when they were about to find him after having seriously injured him and left him with weak breaths, they completely lost track of him, as if he had disappeared or never been there.

Obviously this was because he would teleport himself to a Dead World to escape and also search for resources there to increase his strength while healing his wounds in the process.

But just as all the good luck in the world, there is also bad luck that brings misfortune, tragedy, and calamity.

In one of those escapes, that young man was chased by a powerful Immortal, so he had no choice but to escape by using a strange teleportation formation that he had found long ago, but somehow he did not use it because he felt a strong alarming premonition if he traveled to that world. He was sure he would die instantly if he had teleported earlier. But while he still felt that alarming feeling, it was already to a lesser extent that he was sure he could survive.

In that last 'Abandoned World' that he teleported, he was locked up for a long time while trying to find his way back to the main world.

He was surprised that this world was filled with endless demonic creatures, even appearing demons that were formerly cultivators who had lost their rationality and being, falling completely into darkness and becoming devils and demons...

That was an endless and exhausting battle where his will to live was tested while he was constantly besieged without rest by countless demons for hundreds and thousands of years..."
