Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Hong Ling was shocked. “The power of the heavens? You-you’re not kidding around, are you?”
She was well aware of what the power of the heavens entailed; that was the power of the Heavenly Dao! How could an ordinary Return to Void Stage cultivator like her possess such a special power?
“There’s no mistaking it! I co into contact with this type of power on a regular basis, and I’m sure that the sa type of power is present in your body!” An Lin was also very shocked.
The Heavenly Human Tribe powerful beings were capable of using the power of the heavens, but that was only because the Heavenly Dao bestowed that power upon them. Even among all of the cultivators that An Lin knew of, only the Celestial Thearch was capable of using the power of the heavens. The Celestial Thearch was only able to use the power of the heavens due to his extrely deep understanding of the Heavenly Dao. So, why was Little Hong Ling’s divine dao the power of the heavens?
“But... isn’t my divine dao to grow up? Its effect is also to grow up...” Hong Ling was still finding it a little difficult to accept An Lin’s evaluation.
An Lin was a little stumped. This result had gone well beyond his expectations.
At this mont, a black light suddenly flashed behind him, and a faint, fragrant bodily scent wafted forth as a petite little loli appeared beside him.
This loli wore a black dress with smooth, black hair that pooled all the way down to her waist. Her inky-black eyes were like those of a dead fish, and her face was slightly chubby and round.
“Little Xie! Why have you co out?” An Lin was very excited to see her.
Indeed, this super adorable loli that had appeared before him was none other than his sword spirit, Little Xie.
Little Hong Ling didn’t say anything as she stared intently at Little Hong Ling with her dead fish eyes.
“Wow, she’s so cute...” Little Hong Ling also looked back at Little Xie with shimring eyes.
She was very short, even shorter than Little Xie, but she felt like Little Xie was so adorable. She was even struck by an impulsive urge to hug her.
“Sect Leader, is this your sword spirit? Can I touch her?” Little Hong Ling looked at Little Xie’s chubby little cheeks and struggled to keep her hands in check. Those soft, round cheeks were simply irresistible!
“Piss off!” Little Xie gave a cold reply.
“You still haven’t told why you suddenly appeared. Did you miss ?” An Lin had already enveloped Little Xie’s soft, delicate body in a tight hug before he pressed his hands to her face as if he were playing with a pile of dough.
Her face was so soft and smooth...
It was so satisfying!
“Let go of .”
“No!”
“Tear!”
The Evil-Slaying Sword suddenly stabbed viciously into An Lin’s waist, sending blood splattering through the air.
“Ow!”
“Are you going to let go or not?”
“Yes yes yes! My emotions got the better of as I haven’t seen you for so long.”
An Lin smiled sheepishly as he reluctantly let go.
Little Hong Ling’s eyes widened with shock. The invincible War God An Lin had been wounded? This was no ordinary sword spirit!
“I appeared because of you...” Little Xie pointed her slim index finger at Little Hong Ling as she said in a cold, tender voice, “I know what you are.”
An Lin was imdiately intrigued. “What is she?”
“A being blessed by the Heavenly Dao,” Little Xie replied.
“A being blessed by the Heavenly Dao?” An Lin and Little Hong Ling were both taken aback by this response, and they both repeated Little Xie’s words at the sa ti.
“That’s right. You are a living being who has been blessed by the heavens.” Little Xie nodded. “After seeing you and hearing about your experiences, this piece of information appeared in my mind.”
Little Hong Ling’s first reaction was incredulity, and she shook her head. “That’s impossible. I’ve never been able to grow up, and I’ve led such a tragic life. How could I be soone that is blessed by the Heavenly Dao?”
“Think about it, what is the ultimate pursuit of the vast majority of living beings?” Little Xie suddenly asked.
Little Hong Ling’s eyes were slightly glazed over, but she still replied, “They pursue... they pursue the pinnacle of dao? They pursue transcendence?”
“Wrong.” Little Xie imdiately shook her head, and a profound light appeared in her eyes as she continued in a slow voice, “For the vast majority of living beings in this world, regardless of whether they’re highly intelligent life forms or organisms with no sentient will, all of them simply want to live. As such, their ultimate pursuit would be immortality.”
An Lin nodded slightly upon hearing this, clearly agreeing with Little Xie’s words.
Little Xie looked at the little girl in front of her and said in a serious voice, “Soon after you were born, you were unable to age. You have maintained your three or four-year-old form this entire ti, and your life force won’t diminish with the passage of ti, so you will always live on as the most perfect life form...
“This is the immortality that all living beings dream of, and you attained it at just three or four years of age. Is this not the ultimate blessing from the Heavenly Dao?”
Little Hong Ling was dumbstruck. “My life force won’t diminish?”
“Now that you ntion it, Little Xie, that really is the case! I can sense that the state of Little Hong Ling’s life has been locked at her three or four-year-old state, and none of her life essence has receded!” An Lin used his Evergreen Technique to detect Little Hong Ling’s body before arriving at this shocking conclusion.
“But I want to grow up! That has always been my wish. Couldn’t the heavens have granted immortality after I turned eighteen?” Little Hong Ling wore an aggrieved expression.
“The Heavenly Dao didn’t know that you wanted to grow up so badly at the ti. All it wanted to do was purely to grant you immortality. After it learned of your wish, it granted you the power of your divine dao, which is to grow up,” Little Xie explained.
An Lin was imdiately enlightened.
Little Hong Ling and An Lin were both astonished.
Holy f*ck! That explanation makes a lot of sense!
“As for why you beco more powerful by insulting the heavens, that’s because the subconscious will of the Heavenly Dao can sense your negative emotions whenever you insult it. It wants to bless you, but it’s not a separate entity and doesn’t know what it has done wrong. As such, it can only resort to the most direct and simple thod to make you happy, which is to make you more powerful!” Little Xie continued in her explanation.
An Lin was astonished.
Little Hong Ling’s little mouth gaped open.
This explanation sounded really bizarre, but why did it make so much sense?!
“Now think about your cultivation journey. Isn’t it the case that you’ve always had fantastic luck and encountered many miraculous opportunities?” Little Xie asked.
Little Hong Ling nodded with difficulty as she pulled out a high-rank immortal sword with water and fire surging from its blade. “Back when I was crafting this sword, I was lacking in two immortal-rank items of water and fire nature. At that ti, I slew the two Return to Void Stage vicious beasts who were running rampant in the Flowing Cloud Nation, and their bodies coincidentally yielded the immortal-rank items I needed... There are many other examples of this, like that ti when I fell of a cliff and discovered a secret to containing powerful immortal spells, or when I t an immortal who was on the brink of death with an inheritance to pass on, or when I discovered a treasure map in the stomach of a small beast I slew...”
An Lin was stunned.
Why hadn’t he ever been as lucky as Little Hong Ling?
“Don’t you see? This is all because you have been blessed by the Heavenly Dao!” Little Xie reiterated her point.
“But... if the Heavenly Dao really is blessing , then why isn’t it allowing to beco stronger by insulting it now? Could it be that it no longer likes ?” A hint of sorrow appeared in Little Hong Ling’s eyes.
Little Xie smiled. “How long can you expect soone to keep giving unrequited kindness for abuse in return? Why don’t you try interacting with the Heavenly Dao in a new way?”
“What do you an?” Little Hong Ling blinked.
Little Xie smiled as she pointed up at the sky. “You’ve abused it for so many years, so why don’t you try praising it from now on?”
