Chapter 880 (Vol 3) – The Child Blessed & Loved By The Heavens!

Ling Tian watched silently as they entered the cave, while he had many thoughts on his mind.

"There is no noticeable force or disturbance of spiritual chi in the surroundings that caused the cold air current, but there was a strange cycle of energy coming from the sky..."

The spirit sense covered the entire mountain range and the entire abyss, noting that there was nothing strange that had caused the cold air current except the disturbance that there was in the sky, slightly changing the weather and turning it a little colder. Even the clouds gathered and the pattern of air overhead changed course, increasing the intensity of air pressure and momentarily falling over the mountains of the place, dropping into this abyss and directly colliding with the hidden formation.

"I knew it... this boy is a true child blessed and loved by the heavens..." Ling Tian looked at the sky and then at the cave where these kids had entered. His eyes flashed briefly, causing a thin barrier over his eyes to tremble and disappear.

Looking at the layout and level of the formation in this place, it was obvious that on their own with their strength and power they would not be able to break it, let alone decipher it. Although the formation no longer had much strength as it must have had in its heyday, it would still take a formation expert at least of the nascent soul realm to break it, or have a strength a little higher than this realm.

None of them had even officially reached the golden core stage, so it was impossible to break the formation.

Luo Hongmengs pagoda was a direct pass to enter this place, but Ling Tian prevented it from opening the cave earlier and kept silent.

The strange surge of spiritual energy in the air suddenly appeared, causing interference with the formation as if it was especially made for this purpose, allowing the formation to weaken and the boy managed to break it with a little effort thanks to the formation token he held.

"The token in his hands is an upper medium level formation token that allows one to directly attack and destroy the arrays or core of formations..." Ling Tian recalled the old token in the boys hands and let out a wry smile, realizing how lucky this boy was to possess such a token that was very rare and difficult to make.

"A true son of heaven, blessed by the great dao and loved by the will of heaven..."

Ling Tian recalled the amazing amount of spiritual force around this boy, he was the first person to have such a level of heaven spirit since he cultivated a strange technique to see this kind of spiritual energy.

Ling Tian could sense if someone had such an amount of heaven spirit energy, and after concentrating and circulating some energy in his eyes, he could vaguely notice the heaven spirit in people.

Although he quickly forgot about it and disregarded it because it did not bring him any personal benefit, Ling Tian remembered it again when he felt the intense heaven spirit in this boy earlier.

The other heaven-blessed beings that Ling Tian had encountered did not have even a fraction of this ridiculous amount of heaven spirit in them, as if they each had a few candles of different sizes, illuminating a little in the darkness.

All this varied from person to person, no matter whether they were women or men of different ages, kids, adults or old people.

Even mortals who dont even have the qualifications and talent to cultivate have a little bit of heaven spirit!

The light of these mortals were like small fireflies and faint glows in the night sky that can only be seen at close range, but they still shone faintly. And these glows would gradually increase if they managed to somehow enter the path of cultivation like all other cultivators.

However, the heaven spirit varied in each person, with this boy being the one with the most spirit and light around his body, as if he was a gigantic sun in the midst of darkness, eliminating the darkness in his path and illuminating the entire world, being able to be seen from other planets thousands and millions of miles away throughout the universe.

Even high level immortals like Kings, Monarchs and Emperors have quite a lot of heaven spirit, perhaps because of their cultivation levels and because of all they have lived through, gaining much more experience and power when they increase their power, but they dont even compare to a thousandth of this young boys spirit and light size.

Simply put, all living beings have at least a fraction of this spirit of heaven surrounding them.

But despite all this, Ling Tian observed his hand and then his body, feeling his body completely; his gaze remained indifferent, not even his eyes rippled when he finished observing himself.

He didnt have a shred of heaven spirit, not even the slightest amount like mortals. If he was set in that darkness, there would be no light emerging from him, so he would be lost from sight in the darkness.

Even when he was at his peak, being a Supreme, Ling Tian did not find any trace of this heaven spirit in him.

"But even if they have this heaven spirit it does not mean that they will have a completely safe path, since many times a strange force appears and severs their paths." Ling Tian recalled that many of these guys he encountered in the past disappeared or died inexplicably along the way.

Mostly, the ones who have a lot more of this heaven spirit enveloping them are the ones who have unique qualifications and talents, making them stand out and be geniuses unlike the others.

And although Ling Tian gained the ability to sense and see this heaven spirit in these people and know the great talent they possessed even if they hid it temporarily, Ling Tian did not take much notice of them and, on the contrary, he chose to care for and accept those who had a pure and honest heart.

Magnificent unparalleled talent can be possessed by anyone, but a sincere heart and honest feelings are almost impossible to find.

Talent can be forged and learned, rarely easy, but sincerity and honesty is not something that can be easily obtained, much less overnight.

Only a few of his disciples had considerable and somewhat unique talents that were discovered or developed later, but Ling Tian had cared for and accepted them mainly because of the goodness and honesty in their hearts, as well as the intuition in his heart that told him there was no problem with them.

"A person of very good fortune? Blessed by the heavens themselves and even the great dao?"

But Ling Tian suddenly whispered as he remembered the words of Linqi, the Heavenly Qilin in human form that he encountered in the holy shrine containing the dragon and phoenix cores on the lower plane.

Linqi had told him these words, to which Ling Tian felt it was true and was thankful for it at that moment, learning a lot from Linqi.

"I dont think thats truly the case..." But Ling Tian frowned, at this moment realizing that although Linqis words seemed to make sense, compared to this moment and thinking about every detail thoroughly, they made no sense to him.

Although Linqi was the mythological and heavenly Qilin of legends, he was still a being below heaven and could make mistakes or assume incorrectly.

After all, if he really was blessed and loved by the heavens, then why didnt he have any heaven spirit in him?

Why has his path always been cruel, bitter, painful and full of misfortunes as he tried to reach the top?

Why did heaven always seem to be aiming at him? Placing obstacles and hindrances in his path at all times?

Ling Tian doesnt even have a unique talent or a special physique! All he has is his powerful intuition that warns him of danger or some necessary event in which he has to act, and nothing else!

He really doesnt have a shred of heaven in him?... or does it really mean that he is cursed by the heavens and he must not exist?

Ling Tian felt as if he was the stone in the shoes of heavens will, as a mistake that shouldnt exist... as an intolerable existence in the universe.....

Not once did Ling Tian feel that the heavens arranged a final outcome for him on his path like everyone else, what would be suitable and beneficial for him, but on the contrary, Ling Tian felt that if he let things take their natural course and waited for some change, death would be waiting for him later on.

Ling Tian already experienced this many times, so he had to force his path himself without waiting for anything or anyone.

The rejection of heavens will towards him had never disappeared. Even at this moment he could still clearly feel that the heavens were waiting for the moment when he would let his guard down or be in a difficult position so that they could kill him in an instant again.

"Maybe the heavens arent so perfect and unbeatable after all..."

Ling Tian kept frowning, deep in thought, not noticing that, the aura on his body changed slightly, barely being able to be perceived if one paid attention in detail.

A golden color gradually shone in his eyes as the beautiful jet black faded, with his aura faintly fluctuating.

But suddenly, the bright and clear sky was filled with dark clouds and lightning over the mountain range, encompassing the entire abyss where Ling Tian was located, covering almost the entire region and at once almost the entire south state, expanding without stopping to the other states, as if it wanted to cover the entire cultivation world!

The rivers and seas were in an uproar, the mountains trembled, and a quake that seemed to involve the entire Heavenly Earth Continent rapidly expanded!

But the golden color in Ling Tians eyes rippled and shimmered slightly before disappearing, losing the intense colors shown in his eyes and turning into a lifeless and emotionless transparent shade.

The aura around Ling Tians body trembled for the first time as if it had a consciousness of its own and trembled in fear and terror before its owner.

A faint energy surged from Ling Tian that quickly disappeared as it left his body, an energy far less than the aura of a mere cultivator at the First Stage of Chi Gathering.

But the tiny remnant slivers that remained before disappearing teared through space and void in an instant, creating cracks all over the abyss at the bottom of the mountains as they continued to spread far and wide!

The entire mountain range trembled, causing even the entire region he was in to start shaking as well!

"Huh?"

Ling Tian blinked several times in confusion and bewilderment as he felt the shockwaves from the space cracks around him, finally feeling the tremor in the area. He did not understand why there were space cracks around him.

The suppression of the will of the heavens had also fallen upon him, enveloping him and wanting to suppress him completely, as if it was expelling a higher power than this world, which the heavenly dao would not allow.

But Ling Tian could sense that in heavens will there was some superiority but with a bit of... confusion and fear?

Ling Tian was confused, feeling that he should be imagining things.

The will of heaven is heaven itself, and it is the force that is above all things, overseeing the living beings below it as if they were only ants that could never surpass it.

How could the heaven be afraid of him?

Not even when he reached the rank of the supremacy in the Immortal World did he feel such a thing, the heaven was still the same unparalleled and almighty heaven, and even though he was a supreme he still remained an ant before the will of the heaven.

Ling Tian checked himself and found nothing on him that could have directly caused heaven to intervene again; his body was calm and quiet, his aura did not possess any alteration, and the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures were silent, there had not even been a change since then, only absorbing the spirit chi of the world, while his eyes were still the same deep and beautiful jet black color as always...

The dark clouds and lightning in the sky gradually disappeared after a few minus. The coercion that enveloped Ling Tian also largely disappeared, but there still remained much of the suppression like before that was slowly being removed.

The shaking in almost the entire south state suddenly ceased, returning to normal.

Ling Tian scanned the place several times as well as his body for anything strange but found nothing out of the ordinary.

Extending his spirit sense and seeing the situation outside, Ling Tian finally took a deep breath and decided to enter the cave.
