The Way of The Dao

Chapter 901 (Vol 3) – I Have A Small Pocket World, Master!

A huge city came into view, stretching for hundreds of miles across.

Countless cultivators entered and exited the city, with powerful auras from the golden core realm to the body condensation realm could be seen frequently. Some auras belonging to the separation and reunion realm could also be perceived, but appearing very rarely.

Spatial ships and some flying vehicles flew over the entire city, exuding powerful auras and displaying symbols and markings that showed they belonged to some specific force.

"How fast did we get here? I thought it would take us at least a month to reach the capital!"

Shin Weis voice was soon heard as he looked at the city, being a bit surprised and then looked at Ling Tian.

Once Shin Wei fully recovered and came out of his room, he was surprised and happy to see that Ling Tian had caught up with them. Shin Wei was also curious to know how Ling Tian had appeared in the southern state, so Ling Tian explained to him in a few words.

When Shin Wei saw Ling Tian helping Ying Chen maintain the spatial formations all over the flying ship, Shin Wei had no doubt that they would arrive in no time. Its just that he never thought that they would reach the capital of the east state, Jiaohei City, in less than a week!

"I thought it would take us almost a month even with your help, Master..." Ying Chen couldnt help but nod in the same manner as Shin Wei, looking at the city in front of them.

Hao Zhentian also nodded at Ying Chens words. Although he held Ling Tian in high esteem, he still underestimated him and realized that Ling Tians actual strength was not something simple.

The speed that the flying boat reached far exceeded half the speed of light, reaching a terrifying speed that they could never achieve. The energy required to maintain the functionality of the flying boat and deal with the air pressure also decreased, increasing the speed altogether.

"Ughh... I want to rest..."

"I cant take it anymore..."

Two voices full of exhaustion and helplessness were heard at once. Hao Zhentian and Ying Chen looked to their sides at two bodies that barely moved, still seeming alive if not for the movement of their chests as they breathed.

Shin Wei looked over and couldnt help but chuckle slightly at the sight of Deng Tianjin and Sun Xiangs states. Both guys were lying on the ground on their backs, panting heavily, their auras weak and their energies completely drained. They both just wanted to sleep soundly.

Because the higher the speed the spaceship reached, the greater the consumption of spiritual energy, thus completely draining Deng Tianjin and Sun Xiangs energy reserves.

Shin Wei did not know what Deng Tianjin and Sun Xiang did to make Ling Tian punish them in such a way, so he could only ask them afterwards.

"So this is Jiaohei City? Its changed quite a bit since the last time I was here..." Ling Tian observed the city and couldnt help but be slightly surprised.

Jiaohei City, the current capital of the east state, the place where the teleportation formation to the north state is, has changed quite a bit unlike the last time Ling Tian had been to this place.

"In fact, it has changed a lot since the last time we were here with you, Master."

Hao Zhentian nodded as he surveyed the city from where he sat. Although his aura had reduced considerably, he was still better than Deng Tianjin and Sun Xiang who seemed to have fought for hundreds of battles without resting.

The last time they had been in this place with Ling Tian was obviously before he ascended to the higher plane. Although Hao Zhentian and the others had traveled some time later to this place and others, the capital of the east state gradually changed and improved. Even some of them traveled for a long time and passed through here, gradually noticing the change.

The last time Hao Zhentian had been here was with Shin Wei and Zhen Bingluo, a little over 50 years ago, so although Jiaohei City was constantly improving, it had hardly changed greatly before his eyes.

"By the way, how did you guys use the teleportation of the south state? Did you split into groups or did you all try to go through together?"

Ling Tian suddenly remembered and asked curiously.

How had these disciples used the teleportation platform to travel from the south state to the east state? With only his wives families alone they gathered a little over 50 people, so Ling Tian couldnt help but wonder if they had used the teleportation formation separated by groups or how.

The stability of a teleportation formation depended on its grade and strength level, so if many people tried to use it at the same time it would be quite counterproductive, even affecting the void and instantly killing those who used it.

"I have a small pocket world, Master!"

Hao Zhentian replied to Ling Tian, but he immediately added somewhat helplessly, "However, it is heavily damaged and can only be used for a short period of time by consuming my cultivation essence and soul force."

"A small pocket world?"

Ling Tian was surprised. Small pocket worlds are extremely rare and hard to find, although some may have their inner space a little smaller than high-level storage rings, they are still more sought after and coveted, mainly because these pocket worlds can accept living beings unlike storage rings!

It could even be said that out of every 100 million people on average, only one could have a small pocket world! Hence how extremely rare it was to find one!

However, small pocket worlds can become more fragile than storage rings, and can be destroyed in battles if not properly protected. Some of them may require considerable energy reserves in order to be used, so cultivators above the body condensation realm could only use them, with the small pocket worlds being of a lower level.

Ling Tian also had a small pocket world that he found on one of the abandoned worlds in the Immortal World, where the space inside was equivalent to an average real palace. Although his storage ring was more spacious, the small pocket world could allow living beings to enter, which Ling Tian used to protect his disciples and let them enter when he traveled to the abandoned worlds and had to enter the void.

But the small pocket world was destroyed after his fight with the spirit of the great dao, so now he only had that little mysterious world which was one of the three sacred objects of the legend he obtained and were in his consciousness sea before. But to access it, Ling Tian had to repair his dantian first, which is his main goal at the moment.

"We will head to the outskirts of the city for a moment so that I can use the small pocket world."

Hao Zhentian quickly steered the flying boat, moving a little away from the city and heading towards some distant mountains.

* Ding~ *

* Dong~ *

Once they arrived at the location and the flying boat descended, soft bells rang out within the flying boat, extending inward.

Ling Tian watched and quickly realized that his disciples had created this bell as a signal for the others to get out when he noticed that their auras became agitated and some doors began to open rapidly.

"Huh?"

"Little Tian? Is that you?"

"Son-in-law, is that you?"

"Its Ling Tian! I finally see you again, boy!"

Once they came out of their respective rooms, Tang Zhi, Tang Wei, Zhang Ruoyan, Zhang Chao, Long Cheng, Yun Dong and his wives other relatives were surprised to see Ling Tian. Smiles of joy and full of relief soon adorned their faces.

"Its good to see you again, aunts, uncles." Ling Tian nodded with a smile when he saw his in-laws, in the end being his own family as well.

Tang Zhi and the others smiled happily when they saw Ling Tian.

"How are the girls? Are they alright?"

Soon, Tang Zhi and Zhang Ruoyan came over and asked worriedly about Yun Mengxin, Tang Wanying, Zhang Xinya, Long Yuyin, Mu Shuiruo, Lan Yin and Qing Sha, even about Shan Qingwu as well. Tang Wei, Zhang Chao, Long Cheng and Yun Dong also looked at Ling Tian wanting to know about their daughters.

"They are fine, aunts. Currently all of them are in the northern state, most of them at my disciples residence while they are cultivating or doing other things." Ling Tian replied with a smile, taking the time to explain his wives situation.

"Boy, how come you showed up in the south state?" Long Cheng, Long Yuyins father, asked somewhat curiously. Not only him, all of them were also curious, and although Hao Zhentian had told them that Ling Tian was in the south state, they didnt know how come Ling Tian had appeared quickly if he was supposed to be in the north state.

With Hao Zhentian, Ying Chen and Sun Xiang explaining things to him along the way once they arrived in the south state, Tang Zhi, Zhang Ruoyan and everyone else understood that this world was much bigger than their previous world, where even traveling from one state to another would take years, from decades to centuries, depending on the method of transportation to travel.

"A lot of things happened..." Ling Tian smiled helplessly, explaining in a few words what had happened, omitting some parts so as not to worry them.

Still, everyone was worried despite hearing from Ling Tian himself that everything was fine, after all, someone as powerful as Ling Tian was not at his peak, and dangers roamed around. Although Ling Tian was fine at the moment, they all knew that he must have faced many dangers before.

"Sect Ancestor!"

"Grand Master!"

At once, several youthful voices were heard, with two figures quickly flying towards Ling Tian directly.

Lang Qingzu hugged one side of Ling Tian, while Xuan Li approached another side and bravely grabbed his arm, both of them smiling happily.

Shi Yunfeng, Wen Wencheng and the other disciples who were traveling earlier with Deng Tianjin also appeared and quickly greeted Ling Tian with much respect. Their faces also showed joy at the sight of him.

"How are you girls?" Ling Tian smiled and he patted Lang Qingzus little head, and then Xuan Lis little head as well. He nodded to the other disciples as well.

"We are fine, Grand Master!" Xuan Li replied with a big smile.

"En!" Lang Qingzu added with a bright smile.

After a little while, both Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu missed Ling Tian very much.

Ling Tian watched Xuan Li and then his gaze lingered a little longer on Lang Qingzu, with deep memories wanting to return to his mind as he sensed a slightly familiar aura.

"Mhm? Little Tian, who is she?"

Zhang Ruoyan suddenly noticed a small figure unknown to her, so she asked Ling Tian while looking at this person. Everyone else heard her and followed her gaze as well.

Ling Tian followed her gaze and he noticed Yang Jing.
