The Way of The Dao

"Immortal Thrones? You mean an Immortal King?"

Xi Fei asked carefully, calming her icy heart. She didn't know much about this mysterious place Ling Tian had apparently been to, so she could only intuit a few things.

"Do you even know about the Immortal Kings? Do you know about the levels of immortal cultivation?"

Again, Lei Ruyan was slightly surprised to hear Xi Fei before returning to her calm and passive face and nodding, "Sure, an immortal cultivator can only be considered a true King by stepping on the Immortal Throne, bringing their power to a new level unmatched among their peers and having their own immortal domain! And the Nascent Swords from the Sun and Moon that you are carrying have the power and ability to be able to reach the realm of the great Immortal Throne and become true Kings, respectable and powerful Immortal Kings!"

"A true King..."

"Immortal Throne."

A murmur could be heard as they understood to a certain extent the explanation Lei Ruyan said. The swords that Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei had were powerful immortal artifacts!

"So the Sect you belong to has an Immortal King?"

Ning Xiaoyi suddenly asked boldly. Her gaze began to brighten as she thought of a certain possibility. As if they were connected, Xi Fei also thought the same thing as her and looked expectantly at Lei Ruyan.

"Immortal King?" Lei Ruyan raised her eyebrow dismissively before replying with majesty, "Our Sect has 10 powerful Immortal Kings as ancestors and leaders guiding all the members!"

Everyone's pupils constricted upon hearing this, their breaths stopped and they gasped in cold breaths as the shock stunned them completely.

Ten Immortal Kings!

This amount was five times as many as the powerful Divine Sea Sect where Xue Ning's bloodline came from! Far more powerful!

"Senior, what do you know about the Divine Sea Sect in the Immortal World?"

The next moment, Xue Ning stepped forward and clenched her fists together respectfully, speaking in a somewhat fearful but very respectful voice, afraid of displeasing this Immortal.

Lei Ruyan frowned when she saw Xue Ning, but after looking at her in detail for a few seconds she nodded and replied, "The Divine Sea Sect? It is a small third level sect that only has two Immortal Kings in the Early Stages, while the strongest of our Ancestors has a cultivation level at the peak of the Immortal King stage. Not to mention the other Ancestors, just one of them can wipe out this little sect!"

Lei Ruyan's voice contained a scornful and sneering tone as she mentioned the Divine Sea Sect. This kind of third level sect was nothing in her eyes. But to Xue Ning, it was a great shock. The Divine Sea Sect that was mentioned to have two powerful Immortal Kings who could rule cities and places in the Immortal World could actually be destroyed by one of the Ancestors of the Sect of Lei Ruyan? How strong was this Fire and Water Transcendent Heart Sect?

Only Yun Mengxin, Zhang Xinya, Mu Shuiruo, Tang Wanying and Long Yuyin remained calm. Knowing everything from Ling Tian, they could not help but laugh silently at the sight of Lei Ruyan. Even though her sect could destroy another sect, it was still third-tier category!

"Senior, then could you listen to one of our requests?" Ning Xiaoyi asked expectantly. Her expression showed seriousness but full of hope, just like Xi Fei.

"What do you want?" Lei Ruyan frowned as she listened to Ning Xiaoyi. Although both women had found the central and most important inheritance of the sect, they were still mortal cultivators who she did not know if they would succeed in ascending to the Immortal World.

"We have a very important person to us with us, but unfortunately his meridians were destroyed and his dantian has been cracked. The medicinal and reconstructive pills we can make in this world are not enough to help him. As far as we know, only an immortal pill could once again help him rebuild his body and cultivate again without having any hidden dangers for the future!" Ning Xiaoyi embraced the sword to her chest without hesitating to explain what she had in mind.

"If Senior could promise us this, we wouldn't mind handing over these swords to the sect without asking you for anything else in return!"

This time, Xi Fei seriously asserted towards Lei Ruyan, looking at her steadily but honestly. This made everyone look at Xi Fei and Ning Xiaoyi stunned, realizing that she was giving up a great opportunity for Ling Tian's sake!

Ling Tian silently gazed at Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei, watching their every gesture and expression in detail, keeping their words in his consciousness. The strings in his heart were tugged gently...

"Pill for reconstructing meridians and dantian?"

Finally, Lei Ruyan couldn't help but blink in surprise before narrowing her eyes and staring at Xi Fei and Ning Xiaoyi. Didn't these women know the opportunity that was opening up in their lives? Were they really willing to sacrifice this unique opportunity for a cripple? A waste? They did not know how many cultivators would give their all to obtain the inheritance in their hands and cultivate towards the peak of Immortality!

But now the important thing was her sect's inheritance that had been recovered, so no matter what conditions they asked for, Lei Ruyan had to make sure that both swords returned to them and be able to rebuild her sect once again, regaining the glory and majesty of the past! Only with its inheritance complete would the sect return to the top once again!

"I would have no problem getting that meridian and dantian reconstruction pill, but..." Lei Ruyan spoke after several seconds of thinking, thrilling everyone with her first words but stopping them with the last word, then adding, " But unfortunately that kind of special pill can only be refined by high level alchemists, and especially containing the necessary ingredients. Unfortunately our sect has neither, but we could apply as a special request to an allied sect that does have the resources and experts to do so. It just won't be easy for them to accept the request, even if they know that we have recovered the sect's inheritance."

Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei felt a crisis fill their hearts. It seems that helping Ling Tian will not be so easy!

"But why won't it be easy, big sister? It would only be one pill..."

"You say your sect has many Immortal Kings. Wouldn't it be easy to get such a pill?"

Unexpectedly, Lan Yin and Qing Sha asked innocently as they didn't quite understand what was going on. Noticing the helpless and bitter faces of all big sisters, both girls asked at once, worrying about their Master. Undoubtedly they knew that their Master needed a powerful pill to fully recover.

Lei Ruyan finally showed a trace of irritation and annoyance at seeing two girls who were barely a little over 10 years old questioning her. But when her gaze met Yun Mengxin's cold and piercing half-blue eyes she couldn't help but take half a step back as a shiver ran through her body, slightly scaring even her original body on the higher plane through her spiritual connection!

'But what the...' The thought quickly crossed Lei Ruyan's mind, wondering how a weak female cultivator could give her such a feeling. It was as if in addition to those eyes, there was another kind of terrifying gaze within her that could destroy her with a mere thought.

"Sorry to our little sisters, but they are really worried about their Master."

Ning Xiaoyi quickly said as she clenched her fists together and bowed when she noticed Lei Ruyan's trace of annoyance in her expression.

"But we would really like to know why it wouldn't be so easy to get this pill made? If it's because of the medicinal materials, we can handle getting them all no matter what!" Ning Xiaoyi didn't give up, still looking for a way to get this pill for Ling Tian. She bowed and even prostrated herself before Lei Ruyan, leaving the others stunned.

"Or if they request something in return, then we will look for whatever they are asking for!"

Xi Fei joined Ning Xiaoyi and asked respectfully, prostrating before Lei Ruyan surprisingly as well. They owed Ling Tian a lot and would do everything they could, so she was the only option they currently had to help Ling Tian!

Everyone was silent, watching what was going on. Each and every one had the same thoughts as Xi Fei and Ning Xiaoyi: to do everything they could to get that special pill for Ling Tian.

Ling Tian sighed inwardly and a warmth enveloped his heart as he saw everyone's worry and expression for him.

"I will answer that question of yours instead of her!"

Just then when Lei Ruyan was about to answer, Ling Tian appeared between Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei and with his hands helped them up, preventing them from continuing to prostrate themselves before Lei Ruyan. His indifferent and calm gaze looked at Lei Ruyan through his Dragon Mask.
