Chapter 147 - Dao is the Originator (2/2)

The collapsed roof was the exact room where Ye Chen was in!

Tantai Ling stood high above like a goddess, looking down at Ye Chen who lay weakly on the bed.

“It seems that I have underestimated you. I didn’t expect such a powerful Astral Body to be hidden in your body.” Tantai Ling gazed at Ye Chen silently, her face maintaining the same stone-cold expression.

“Squeak!” The fur on Little Tanuki’s body stood upright. It exposed its sharp teeth and stared hostilely at Tantai Ling.

“A six-tailed tanuki that hasn’t entered the Adept Rank yet… Little guy, do you think you can do anything to harm me?” Tantai Ling swept an indifferent glance at Little Tanuki, the trident in her right hand constantly spinning, emitting rays of mystical light.

Little Tanuki maintained its hostile stance and various kinds of ever-changing illuminations glinted in its eyes. Despite knowing that the enemy was too strong, it would never give in either!

“Little Tanuki, don’t.” Ye Chen stretched out his right hand. Though he was somewhat weak, he still managed to block Little Tanuki. Even if Little Tanuki harnessed all its life potential, it would still be no match for Tantai Ling.

“Little tanuki, you should really be running for your life now and perhaps you could still live. I don’t understand these so-called feelings that you mortal beings have. It’s meaningless. The real Martial Truth is to constantly challenge your own limits to become the strongest of all. These feelings that mortal beings have for each other are just a drag.” There was not a single trace of emotion at all in Tantai Ling’s cold voice. She looked at Ye Chen and said, “Do you now regret your attempt of saving those three people earlier? If you hadn’t tried to save them, maybe you can still survive. But now, you’re dead for sure. ”

“I don’t regret it,” Ye Chen said firmly.

“Why?” Tantai Ling’s ominously dark eyes remained unmoved.

“This is my Dao.” Ye Chen stared straight into Tantai Ling’s eyes.

Tantai Ling reacted like she had heard something amusing as she laughed, “Your Dao? Speaking of which, I forgot that you also understood the Absolute Martial Truth. To die defending the weak – is your Dao? If you want to attain immortality, you must learn to be ruthless, then only could you reach the top. ”

“You’re wrong.” Ye Chen rebutted her. “I don’t know what Rank you are but the fact that you keep looking to challenge other fighters, it seems that your cultivation had reached a bottleneck. If your Martial Arts Attainment Level was sufficient to support your cultivation, you shouldn’t find it so difficult to break through with that talent you have. Thus, I can conclude that your Dao is wrong! ”

There was finally a slight bit of change to Tantai Ling’s stone-cold expression. Her gleaming eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at Ye Chen, “You said my Dao is wrong?” There was even a smile on her face when she spoke but the smile was incredibly cold. The Pressure surrounding her body suddenly surged and a cold murderous intent was locked on Ye Chen.

No one had so far dared to doubt her Dao!

“Historically, all the greats who came before us were people of love. They had great compassion toward all beings of the mortal realm and it was that, which allowed them to achieve the highest order of Dao. Dao is the Originator of the undivided universe. The universe gives rise to Yin and Yang; Yin and Yang give rise to heaven, earth, and people, and they give rise to all the worldly things 1. The realization of Dao comes from all worldly things and the enlightenment of Dao comes from love. If you have no love in your heart and only know how to kill, you’ll be controlled by it, and you’ll eventually become a killer with no belief. If you have no belief, how else can you feel the presence of Dao within heaven and earth?”

Ye Chen felt the oppressive murderous intent coming from Tantai Ling. He felt as if all the hair pores on his body were pierced by fine needles. It was like his body was on the brink of shattering, yet he still gritted his teeth and muttered out each word and sentence stubbornly.

It was surprising that Ye Chen still dared to talk back under such strong oppression. Tantai Ling’s murderous intent suddenly intensified again and she stared coldly at Ye Chen.

Tantai Ling only needed to flick her one finger to ensure Ye Chen’s death!
