The Way of The Dao

* Whoosh!!! *

* Splash! *

By the time Ling Tian had finished understanding the art of teleportation, a disturbance in the site arose when the lake water became agitated.

Tang Zhi and Zhang Ruoyan opened their eyes and emerged from the lake. They wore clothes that they took out of their space rings and came close to where everyone was.

"You are finished, mother." Tang Wanying approached and looked at Tang Zhi with a smile.

"Hmn, you said to come out when we start to feel strange." Tang Zhi responded.

"The cultivation has progressed a lot." Zhang Ruoyan approached and stretched out her arms: "Is this the power to advance several stages?"

"You are now in the realm of the Golden Core, so your strength has grown dramatically, mother." Zhang Xinya approached and answered her mother.

Both Zhang Ruoyan and Tang Zhi were in the Early Stage of the Golden Core.

The Heavenly Spring Yin Lake increased their cultivation in at least an entire realm.

But what really caught the eye was that both women seemed to have taken a few years off, becoming slightly younger and more beautiful.

"Did you make progress these days too?" Tang Zhi looked at her daughter and the other girls, but she couldn't see their levels of cultivation, which meant that they were at a much higher level.

"We all advanced to the Late Stage of the Nascent Soul thanks to the Immortal and Spirit Crystals." Tang Wanying said, "Sis Mengxin is the one who is in the realm of Body Condensation and is learning to mold her Will for the next realms."

Tang Zhi nodded in surprise, shocked to see that her daughter and the other women were already highly cultivated.

When had they ever thought there was a much greater world?

A force that would surpass the supposed ranks they knew before?

The path to Immortality and all that goes with it had been given to them by Ling Tian.

"And little Tian?" Zhang Ruoyan asked and sought a sign from Ling Tian.

"Here I am, Auntie. I was helping to train Shasha and Yinyin."

A voice answered Zhang Ruoyan at once when Ling Tian appeared and beside him were Qing Sha and Lan Yin.

"Huh?"

Instantly, both mothers were stunned when they saw another girl who was as pretty as Lan Yin next to Ling Tian.

"Little Shasha?" Zhang Ruoyan muttered in astonishment as she continued to watch Qing Sha.

"Hmm?" Qing Sha raised her eyebrows at Zhang Ruoyan and immediately smiled, "Auntie, it's me, Shasha!" A giggle came out of her little lips.

Qing Sha!

It was her!

Tang Zhi and Zhang Ruoyan looked at each other awkwardly for a few seconds while disbelief was still in their eyes.

"Wow! You really became even prettier!" Tang Zhi came out of her stupor and approached Qing Sha, hugging her and taking her in her arms: "How did you become so much prettier?"

The expression of happiness and emotion in Qing Sha was clear: "My Master cured me!" She showed a big grin.

Zhang Ruoyan and Tang Zhi looked at Ling Tian with surprise, wondering if there was anything this son-in-law of theirs could not do!

"The two aunts really look more beautiful and seem younger, I am sure my two fathers-in-law will be more proud and happy, hehe." Ling Tian praised both mothers-in-law.

Tang Zhi and Zhang Ruoyan laughed and thanked their son-in-law's praise.

"Aunt Zhi, Aunt Ruoyan." Ling Tian looked at his two mothers-in-law and said, "Now you have increased your cultivations and with the benefits of this lake, your cultivation speeds will be faster and more powerful."

Ling Tian explained to them about the benefits and that it was a great improvement for them.

Tang Zhi and Zhang Ruoyan were happy that they were getting great benefits from this lake.

All that remained was for Shan Qingwu to come out of the lake, but Ling Tian was sure that she would come out in a short time too.

"We will return to Star City." Zhang Ruoyan commented after a while. Tang Zhi nodded to what she said.

Both mothers learned at this time that there would be a time of crisis and Star City could be affected, so they decided to go back and tell others to strengthen the city anyway.

Zhang Ruoyan and Tang Zhi left the place and went to Star City. Ling Tian also shared some exercises with them to help them understand their current strengths.

"Sis Qingwu seems to be leaving soon too." Mu Shuiruo commented when she saw that the currents and waves of water were beginning to manifest around Shan Qingwu.

The girls looked towards the lake and nodded.

It seems that there was one more person who would be very helpful!

"Shasha, in a while you too will enter the lake to cultivate." Ling Tian patted Qing Sha's head and said, "But you're going to take a little over a month to be cultivating, so I ask you to just concentrate on cultivating and after you're done we'll go for a stroll to the city I told you about, okay?"

Qing Sha had not yet gone to the Star City and only cultivated, played and ate every day with Ling Tian.

Ling Tian did not want to burden Qing Sha with the cultivation and let time pass slowly as with Lan Yin, but the sense of crisis in him was still slowly increasing. Besides that it was better for Qing Sha to create a solid and powerful foundation through the Heavenly Spring Lake Yin before continuing to cultivate.

And, last but not least, he needed to have the mysterious destructive Yin energy drained from the lake so that he could obtain the Essence of Dawn and Life; this way, he would have a heavenly treasure to recover his wounds quickly in case of an emergency.

Ling Tian had also verified the World Tree in his heart and had indeed found what he feared: the World Tree seemed to be dying or at least weakening. The color of its nine-colored leaves became faint, but even the spirit still maintained an astonishing vitality in every inch of it.

Ling Tian did not know why this was happening, but he would keep the World Tree in his heart as much as possible without using it and only hoping that it would help him when he needed it most or at least not at all.

There wasn't much information about the legendary World Tree, so Ling Tian had no idea what to do or why this was happening.

Now, with the Essence of Dawn and Life, he could replace the World Tree for a long time.

* WHOOSH!!! *

Swirls and waves of water rose, making noise as a burst of spiritual energy covered the place.

Shan Qingwu opened her eyes and shyly stepped out of the lake, looking for her clothes that she had left behind and dressing, afraid that someone specific was watching her. Although the barrier was still active, she still couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

She did not have a storage ring, so she had borrowed clothes from the women.

However, Ling Tian only realized that Shan Qingwu had ended after a while, because he was still thinking about the conjectures about the problem with the World Tree.

But when he looked at her, he could not help but be amazed that this lake had further enhanced the beauty of this woman.

Her long light brown hair and light blue eyes added a fascinating and beautiful charm. Her long and exquisite eyelashes further enhanced her beautiful eyes. Her light cherry colored lips added an appetizing and unique sensation. A well shaped and defined body, with its right assets in every place; full where it should be full and smooth where it should be smooth. Her breasts were not so big, so she definitely proved to be very athletic, with her muscles beautifully toned without being coarse or exaggerated, showing her years of fighting and training.

To say that Shan Qingwu was on par with the Goddesses of the Star City was not an exaggeration...

"Senior Sisters." Shan Qingwu approached with her flushed cheeks, waving to the girls who had approached her and finally looking at Ling Tian. She had not noticed that she seemed to become more beautiful than before.

Tang Wanying nodded with a smile and congratulated: "It's amazing that you have reached the Middle Stage of the Golden Core, you really have a good aptitude for cultivation as well."

Shan Qingwu's current level was in the Middle Stage of the Golden Core, making a great advance from the last time.

"All this is because you allowed me to cultivate myself in this amazing lake." Shan Qingwu shook her head and said respectfully

Shan Qingwu knew that the opportunity to become so strong was because of these people, so she would never forget this gift.

Also, she could not yet see the levels of cultivation of these people, so she was even more surprised. Shan Qingwu understood that she was still very weak compared to these amazing sisters of hers.

"It is too early to check the internal constitution of your body, so we must wait a long time." Ling Tian said when he watched Shan Qingwu

No doubt the wonderful lake would bring great benefits to the women who cultivated it.

"However, you are just beginning on the path of cultivation, so you will face all sorts of events and surprises, but you must always keep a firm and just heart, overcoming all the adversities of the path without hesitation."

Ling Tian advised her, making Shan Qingwu nod and listen respectfully. Ling Tian knew that his two mothers-in-law wanted Shan Qingwu to cultivate immortality as well as all of them, so he encouraged this beautiful woman in front of him.

Shan Qingwu was also surprised to see another beautiful girl at Ling Tian's side. But when she noticed those beautiful and impressive amethyst violet eyes, she could not help but say, "Shasha?"

She had seen Qing Sha before she entered the lake, so she could not connect her with that totally different girl from the one now.

"Em?" Qing Sha looked at Shan Qingwu and tilted her head, showing that she was paying attention.

"She is my disciple, as well as Yinyin, so she will be with us from now on." Ling Tian responded, lovingly patting Qing Sha's head.

Shan Qingwu nodded foolishly, glancing timidly but lesser at Ling Tian.

Her wild heart slowly calmed down, realizing that this amazing being was of a calm and gentle temperament.

"Shasha, you will enter the lake, okay?" Ling Tian looked at Qing Sha and said, "Don't worry, neither I nor anyone else will leave this place. We will wait for you until you are finished."

"En!" Qing Sha nodded and headed for the lake. Ling Tian had already explained to her what would happen once she entered.

Lan Yin walked alongside Qing Sha as well.

They were now behaving like real sisters who shared blood and loved each other very much, always playing and having a lot of fun together with Ling Tian.

Ling Tian asked Yun Mengxin to raise a barrier of isolation in his place.

Instantly, Qing Sha felt an amazing and mysterious spiritual energy enter her body as she entered the center of the lake. She positioned herself and began to slowly cultivate, just as Ling Tian had told her.

"Husband~" Zhang Xinya smiled seductively when she stuck her big breasts into one of Ling Tian's arms and said, "This younger sister doesn't have a space ring, so it's okay if you give her one~"

Zhang Xinya showed a seductive smile and gave Shan Qingwu a sideways glance, demonstrating her relationship with Ling Tian.

The storage rings all came from Ling Tian, so Shan Qingwu did not have one.

Shan Qingwu's cheeks could not help but blush with some depth.

She was not the only one!

Mu Shuiruo and even Tang Wanying blushed too. Long Yuyin seemed to keep her cool, but Ling Tian could feel the slightly accelerated feelings in her as well.

Yun Mengxin lifted the corners of her thin lips as he saw Zhang Xinya's behavior.

It seems that Zhang Xinya was the only one who would dare to behave in such a way, just to make her status clear.

Zhang Xinya looked deeply at Shan Qingwu, showing that Ling Tian belonged to him, but she also showed a hint of struggle and encouraged in her eyes.

'If you want to be truly our sister, then you have to fight and prove that you deserve to be in this place!'

If emotions could be described, this would mean.

However, Shan Qingwu managed to understand what Zhang Xinya wanted to say to her, so finally she could not help but blush furiously, adding a greater charm to her face.

Although Zhang Xinya wanted to lock up Ling Tian completely for herself and her sisters so that other women would not be interested in him, she could not help but approve of Shan Qingwu just this once, accepting her as her other sisters.

But first she had to win her consent!

Ling Tian wanted to laugh at Zhang Xinya's provocation and intentions, but he let this beguiling woman get away with it for now.

"Well, I'll give you a storage ring later, Qingwu." Ling Tian smiled softly.

Shan Qingwu's calm heart couldn't help but jump again when she heard him call her name more closely.

Zhang Xinya and Long Yuyin pouted and pinched Ling Tian's waist again.

This time, Ling Tian grabbed both women's soft, exquisite butts, teasing them and making them blush with embarrassment.

"Hey!"

"Haha!"

Ling Tian laughed mischievously before looking at Qing Sha who was calmly cultivating on the lake.

Lan Yin was gently caressing the little white fox, who seemed to have become attached to these two girls since she met them.

"Now I am going to train with the boys. Later I will train with you, so you must prepare yourselves. That way you can help me with the disaster in the future." Ling Tian told the girls and looked at Shan Qingwu, "You will also train with us so that you will understand your current strength."

"Okay!" Shan Qingwu nodded and took up her sword which was near the place, before following Ling Tian to where the boys were.
