Just as Xie Tian was exploring the secrets of the cultivation world, a golden light descended from the sky and landed in the Xie Residence in Yangshuo City of the Country of Song.
Baidu & Search Witch God Era
Xie Yun raised her head slightly and looked at the golden light blankly. Then, she looked at the 16 tombstones again.
The 16 tombstones were engraved with the names of the elders of the Xie family.
One of them even belonged to her biological father, Xie Changrong.
She still remembered the reluctance and love in her father's eyes before they parted more than half a year ago. Even though her father wasn't a good person, his love was pure and unquestionable.
Xie Yun didn't cry. After staying in the Dao Sect for nearly half a year, she had become even colder.
After cultivating in the sacred ground for nearly half a year, her cultivation level had broken through to the eighth stage of the Connate Realm. She had also obtained the opportunity of the Dao fruit of the Inner Qi Realm. She had finally realized her ambition and become the top genius of the Xie Family. Everyone looked up to her.
But the Xie family was gone.
She recalled Xie Shuai's madness in the boudoir, and her lips curled into a bitter smile.
Xie Shuai's massacre of the Xie family was foreshadowed.
Even raising a dog for six years would more or less develop feelings. But when she devoured Xie Tian's Primordial Yang, Xie Shuai revealed twisted excitement and ruthless madness.
If Xie Shuai wasn't crazy, how could he have done such a heartless thing?
"He's not called Xie Tian anymore. He's called Xie Tian …"
She thought of him again.
After spending 12 years together, Xie Yun's deepest impression of Xie Tian was the moment when they parted.
At that moment, she walked towards the Azure Shadow Pavilion and became the center of attention in Yangshuo City.
At that moment, in an alley that no one cared about, a cripple that no one cared about broke Xie Jin's finger and walked towards revenge.
All karma seemed to start at the moment of parting.
Or rather, it started when she sucked Xie Tian's Primordial Yang dry.
"I've already told them that no one will dare to bully you anymore."
"That's all. Come and send me off tomorrow."
Those were the two sentences that Xie Yun remembered. As for the first sentence, she had already forgotten it.
Xie Yun felt complicated thinking about those two sentences.
She didn't greet him, but now it seemed that there was no need for her to do so, because from then on, Xie Tian really hadn't been bullied.
She let Xie Tian be like this, but Xie Tian was not like this. He embarked on the path of revenge against the Xie Family, from Anlan Mountain, Xie Mansion, Hexi Corridor, Bianliang City, and then back, all the way until he killed his way out of the country. This was a road that shocked the world.
At this moment, Xie Yun finally understood why Xie Tian sent her off. It was as if he was silently telling her that he would walk this path.
Xie Yun was filled with regret. When she saw the scene in the alleyway, she should have noticed something. However, her pride prevented her from believing that Xie Tian would succeed in his revenge.
How could a cripple do that?
However, the sixteen tombs that had nailed the Xie Family to the pillar of shame had turned the impossible into reality.
It took her two days to accept reality. Then, she mobilized all her power and began to search for her enemy.
Xie Yun had two enemies. One was Xie Shuai, and the other was Xie Tian.
There were traces of Xie Tian, but there was no news of Xie Shuai.
"Junior Sister."
The golden light landed on the ground and turned into a human figure. The newcomer was well-dressed and had a sage-like demeanor. He had a gentle smile on his face, and his voice was refreshing. Like Xie Yun, this person was a core disciple of the Taoism Faction. His name was Sun Daoran.
Xie Yun quickly gathered her thoughts and asked, "What is it?"
Sun Daoran bowed and smiled gently. "The Holy Zhi Palace is here. The Sect Leader wants you to return to the sect without delay."
"Is it that important person?" Xie Yun trembled and asked coldly.
"No, it's just the three Acting Elders of the Holy Zhi Palace. As for the Lord, it's said that we'll have to wait for a while," Sun Daoran said with a smile.
Xie Yun had searched for months and found no news. How could she be willing to leave? Now that she heard that the important person had not come, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She said coldly, "Please tell Master that I'll be returning later."
Sun Daoran smiled bitterly and said, "Junior Sister, I'm afraid it's not up to you this time."
"Why?" Xie Yun was startled and turned to ask.
"Sigh." Sun Daoran sighed and advised sincerely, "I know that there's been a great change in your family. As a son, it's understandable for you to act like this. However, you have to look on the bright side. The cultivation world of Wanzhou is undergoing a great change. Success or failure depends on you and Li Jian. Don't be careless."
Sun Daoran then took out an item from his storage pouch and offered it with both hands. He said softly, "The Holy Zhi Palace's elder has ordered Xie Yun to return immediately."
Xie Yun's body trembled. She struggled for a long time before taking the token.
Although the token was an inanimate object, it was far more important than her Master.
After half an hour, the golden light reappeared. Sun Daoran and Xie Yun returned to the Taoism Faction at the peak of the glacier. The twenty or so Taoism Faction disciples who were waiting at the Xie Residence seemed to have been liberated. They cheered and leaped toward Mulan.
There, their fellow disciples had been domineering for many days. They could not wait any longer.
Green Green City, an inn.
Xie Tian stared at the four words on the cover of the book.
Cultivation Basics.
Although the cover was different, he had seen this book before.
In the Inner Sect Cultivation Hall, inner sect disciples had to pay ten thousand contribution points to exchange for it. That was why he was curious as to why Ba Cong would have such a book.
This was not an important question. Xie Tian pondered for a while but could not come up with an answer. He suppressed his thoughts and carefully flipped to the first page of the book.
"The path of cultivation is long. We seek it through the Path of the Sword …"
"Cultivation is divided into states. Each state is a world. Brute force refines the body, inner Qi unblocks the meridians, the Connate cultivates the soul, and the spiritual powers connect …"
"There are Fruits of Dao in the world. There are three levels: Transcendence, Sainthood, and Supreme. Li Jian is transcendence, Xie Yun is sainthood …"
"There are stones in the world called Spiritual Stones. They contain the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. They are unpredictable and extremely precious. Mortals cannot hear, see, or touch them. Only those who cultivate magical powers can understand them …"
"The storage pouch has its own space. It is an item for cultivation. To use it, one needs to combine their spiritual power with the Spiritual Stone …"
"The small sword is a mortal level magical item. It is controlled by the power of one's bloodline. It can kill anyone below the level of magical powers. Use it with caution …"
…
It took Xie Tian six hours to finish reading the thin book. He was silent for a long time.
He looked at the pouch in front of him and the transparent stone. He knew that these two items were the storage pouch and Spiritual Stone mentioned in the book.
He was shocked. However, what shocked him the most was not the true secret of the cultivation world, but the book.
It was obvious that this book was different from the one in the Sword Catacomb's Cultivation Hall. It was prepared by an expert who had truly stepped into the cultivation realm for his descendants.
Ba Cong was the descendant of this expert.
Xie Tian shuddered.
Even if he reconstructed his Natal Inner Qi immediately, he would only reach Inner Qi Stage Nine …
Even if he broke through again and reached Inner Qi Stage Ten and obtained the Fruits of Dao …
Even if he broke through again and reached Innate Stage …
He would only be an ant in the eyes of the magical powers cultivators.
"It seems like I've pierced through the sky …"
Xie Tian sighed softly, but he was quickly thinking about a problem.
Which expert in the Sword Catacomb was Ba Tian and Ba Cong's elder?
"Other than Li Jian's two core disciples, there are six elders. Including the Sword Catacomb Sage, there are a total of nine people …"
Xie Tian thought for a long time. He could only narrow it down to these nine people.
"So this is the reason why the Ba family is so arrogant. They don't even care about the inner disciples of the Sword Catacomb."
Xie Tian's heart was heavy. He had humiliated Ba Tian and killed Ba Cong. He had offended a powerful enemy who could probably kill him with a single breath.
However, he did not regret it.
He had humiliated Ba Tian and killed Ba Cong just to save Xiao Jiu and the others! Just to avenge Boss Jia and the others! Just to make his own thoughts clear!
"No matter who you are, don't you dare provoke me. Otherwise, I will kill you!"
