Ace Of Terrans
Chapter 870: Tutelage Of The Spirit Beast.

Shi Lang spend the night telling Ling Shui about his and Amelia's love story. Many times the tears of blood trickled down the corner of his eyes, however, his heart was not shaken. Ling Shui was moved, and she did not know if someone could control so much rage in their heart. The tears that trickled down his eyes were not of grief, but hate.

Every word reminded him of how she was taken from him. Ling Shui looked at the sun breaking the dark of the night and asked, "What do you intend to do now?"

Shi Lang said, "Cultivate till I reach the level where the Juan Family kneels and I have the authority to ignore them and skin Juan Xuan alive as he wails in agony."

Ling Shui shivered at the cold description of his voice and she wanted to say something when he closed his eyes and absorbed the pure Yang energy from the morning sun. Experience tales with m v|l -NovelFire.net

She shook his head and left him to his measures, after all, it was not her place to tell him anything. Shi Lang did not care about her either. He did not even ask for anything in the house, the pavilion was the only place he stayed.

He focused on his cultivation and did not even touch the Dao Law fragment he earned from the Dao Arena. The reason was that he doubted that absorbing or refining this tiny two inch big crystal would be of any use. It was already night when Shi Lang stopped cultivating and used his communicator to check the details written inside the journal of Tsuu Ching's son.

He found that outside the city there was a forest where the cultivators would venture to fight and temper themselves against the spirit beasts. It was an arena of a sorts, but there was no prize. Keeping your life intact would be a reward. Also, the spirit beasts rewarded the cultivators with cultivation techniques and martial arts techniques.

The techniques were divided into clean categories, Cultivation Techniques, Martial Art Techniques, and finally, spiritual techniques. It was easy to understand the reasoning behind the division, because the system of this place was much more refined.

The techniques were graded in three realms, Human, Earth and Heavens. While the human level cultivation were common and could be bought with money, Earth Level techniques were very expensive, and often attracted trouble, but the Heaven level cultivation techniques could only be found if you are fated to have them.

Many of the heaven level techniques were under the custody of the big forces, and they all monopolized who gets to practice the techniques. Shi Lang did not care about all this but knowing the difference could help him understand how things work and information was power.

After reading through the journal, he took out the void cloak, and decided to leave the Ling Family manner. He stood up and was just about to put on the cloak when he heard a soft giggle. It was like bells tinkling in the surroundings. He turned his head and found a bunch of toddlers running around each other with big smiles on their faces.

Ling Shui appeared beside him and asked, "What are you thinking, Fellow Daoist?"

Shi Lang looked at the children and said, "Before losing my wife, I used to look for the light in the hearts of the people, no matter what happened I used to think that time will change and happiness will come. In this world, the stronger you are the more enemies you have. The weak don't have a chance and say in what happens and how it happens.

Now that I look carefully in the places where I see light, I also see the shadows cast by it. The intent to restore peace causes wars, and the incapability to save your loved ones begets hate. Light and dark are nexuses to each other that cannot be separated, and only when one learns this fact and replaces balance can they walk the path of cultivation and seek Dao.

In a nutshell, none can choose either light or either dark, none shall stay biased or the emotions and karma will destroy you. Look at these children, they are so happy playing with each other but in a few years when they grow up, they will be competing in blood battles to acquire resources.

However, if they all choose different paths and helped each other grow, then at least the only enemy they will have to worry about would be outsiders."

His monologue made Ling Shui think hard about the path of cultivation. Struggle was inevitable, it could not be avoided, but one should not be fighting with their own family. As she thought about it, she realized something, and raised her head to look at Shi Lang, only to replace that the Terran was nowhere to be seen.

She tried looking for him with her spiritual sense and found that Shi Lang seemed to have vanished from the city itself. While the lady was surprised but she was not shocked. This was to be expected of the cultivator who ascended from the lower realm and left the caged realm. He had means.

...

Shi Lang was moving through the city at a quick pace. He was running atop the ceilings of the houses and the walls to reach the city gates undetected. Hou Bing had given him a robe and a cloak made from void beast skin, but Shi Lang only used the cloak the camouflage on his battle suit was good enough to avoid the eyes of the people, and when combined with the cloak, he was basically invisible.

Shi Lang left the city and dashed through the woods, he was heading west, because the place where people could challenge the beasts was located in that direction. His speed was fast, and his steps were as light as clouds. The Terran travelled for a week, before he reached a big clearing.

He sensed the place but their was no one there. Only a big plaque was leaning against the trees. Shi Lang thought about it and found that it has been a few hundred years, it was possible for the battlefield to have shifted somewhere else.

However, since he did not know whom to ask about it. He decided to stay here and cultivate. He took off the cloak on his person and began to dance with his spear. The weapon flashed with cold light and Shi Lang trained himself in spear movement.

In his entire life, this was the first time when he was training in spear properly. He wanted to increase the familiarity with the weapon spirit of the tribulation spear. Also, the shockwaves created by his spear dance could attract some spirit beings to him.

He danced for three days and two nights non-stop before he stopped and sat down in meditation. After a few hours, he opened his eyes and turned to look at his right. A light chuckle sounded and a feminine voice sounded, "I did not expect you to be able to detect me, aren't you vigilant, little human."

Shi Lang cupped his fist and said, "Greetings, Senior. May I be of any service to you?"

The spirit beast was surprised and then a lady wearing a white gown walked out of the tree line and said, "Surprisingly, your manners are quite something for a human. You have caught my interest, young one, tell me what are you doing here?"

Shi Lang nodded and replied, "I was told that humans and spirit beings used to spar with each other in this very place. I came here seeking the same arena to train."

The lady opened her eyes wide and Shi Lang noticed that her pupil were vertical slits. The lady asked, "How do you even know of this? You are not any more older than forty or fifty years in bone age. Why do you know of the place that existed more than hundreds of years ago? Also, why are you not scared of a spirit beast like me?"

Shi Lang cupped his fists and said, "Senior, I have lived inside the caged realm for all my life, I don't know what the situation of this world is. I only came here because this was the only way for me."

The lady was taken aback, and then she asked, "What would you do if I killed you right now?"

Shi Lang looked at her and spoke seriously, "I would try my best to fend off, but if I am still defeated and killed, then I will accept that it was my fate. However, if by any chance, I manage to survive, I will kill you and your clan after getting enough strength, by hook or by crook. Then only will I be able to fight my real enemies."

The lady was stunned and then she laughed out loud, the void shook from the waves of her action. She said, "You are the first human, who managed to catch my attention. Fine, I will spare you, and since you want to train, I will train you. I am Lao Yuesha. Do you dare to accept me as your teacher?"

Shi Lang knelt on one knee and bowed his head as he said, "Shi Lang greets Teacher Lao."
