Chapter 2. The Legend's Beginning

The morning sunlight woke Ling Tian who was sleeping on one of the tall tree branches. He didn't dare to sleep on the ground for fear of wild beasts.

From the top of the tree, Ling Tian looked towards the Mountain of Death which was filled with mist. He continued to strengthen his resolve not to hesitate to walk through the Mountain of Death which was full of dangers.

"Fiiiuuuhhh ...."

Taking a deep breath and then releasing it roughly, Ling Tian jumped from the tree and immediately walked into the Mountain of Death. Fresh air seemed to fill his lungs when he entered the mountain.

Ling Tian walked forward while paying attention to his surroundings and remaining alert. The deeper he walked, the trees around him also got bigger and higher.

After walking for 3 hours, Ling Tian felt tired. The temperature inside the mountain also turned colder. He stopped for a moment to recover his physical strength. His energy Qi was still full, because what he was using was purely his body strength.

Ling Tian deliberately did that because

he was afraid to use up his Qi energy. Because later when there is danger, he can quickly escape using the power of Qi energy.

When his body condition had recovered, Ling Tian immediately continued on his way. He kept taking the straight route ahead so as not to get lost.

After a while later, Ling Tian instinctively sensed a danger. His instinct felt that there were countless stares watching him. He was getting ready to activate his Qi energy to escape.

Grrrrr ... Grrrrr

Suddenly from behind the trees, several young Silver Wolves appeared surrounding Ling Tian.

The young Silver Wolf was a level 1 Spirit Beast, whose cultivation was at the fourth stage of the Bronze Star. If the Silver Wolf had matured, his cultivation would be at the sixth stage of the Bronze Star. And when the Silver Wolf had grown old, it would have horns on its head and its cultivation would be at the ninth stage of Bronze Star.

The Spirit Beast's strength also depended on the strength of its bloodline. The higher the level of a Spirit Beast, it meant the higher the strength of the bloodline would be.

Even though the Silver Wolf that was now surrounding Ling Tian was still young, but his ability was already one level above his cultivation. Ling Tian felt that right now he might really lose his life, so he tried never to let his guard down one bit.

The Silver Wolf that was in front of LingTian suddenly jumped up and pounced on him. Ling Tian reflexively avoided the wolf's hold, but his right arm was still injured as a result of being hit by the wolf's claw.

Without paying attention to the wound on his arm, Ling Tian quickly dashed forward using all of his Qi energy. The Silver Wolves also quickly chased after Ling Tian.

Numerous claw wounds had formed on Ling Tian's shoulders and back. His clothes were in tatters, his blood was dripping without stopping. Ling Tian clenched his teeth hard to endure the pain he was feeling, and didn't dare to relax his speed.

After about 30 minutes of running, Ling Tian suddenly stopped his footsteps. In front of him is a waterfall with very steep cliffs. If someone fell, maybe he would die immediately.

Ling Tian is now faced with two choices. The first option jumps into the cliff and immediately dies, or the second option remains and is tormented to death by the wolves.

Grrrrr ... Grrrrr

The growl of the wolves made Ling Tian move automatically to jump into that steep cliff.

“Instead of dying slowly and in torment, it's better to die in an instant,” muttered Ling Tian as he closed his eyes because he didn't dare to see what would make him die.

BYUR

A splatter sound rang out and Ling Tian felt his body sink into the extremely cold water. His eyes spontaneously opened, and he saw himself continue to slide rapidly underwater.

Ling Tian tried to slow down his sinking speed, and it worked. His feet finally touched the bottom slowly, then he wanted to push himself back onto the water. But before Ling Tian did, he saw an extremely bright light right in front of him.

By swimming slowly, Ling Tian approached the source of light. And after getting closer to the light, he was amazed by what he had seen. It turned out to be an underwater cave.

Ling Tian carefully entered the cave. After being in it, he felt even more amazed.

Not a single drop of water entered the cave. And there was a small fire, which had seven different colors, hovering right in the middle of the cave. The light that illuminated the entire cave came from the fire.

With feelings mixed between fear, amazement and surprise, Ling Tian subconsciously forgot all the pain he had suffered as a result of the wounds on his body.

The small fire seemed to wake up from its sleep because it felt Ling Tian's presence.

Ling Tian's face immediately turned pale, when he saw the small flames moving towards him. His body suddenly felt stiff and frozen like a statue. He could only surrender to what would happen next.

After getting close to Ling Tian's body, the small flames stopped for a moment then circled around his entire body.

A few moments later, those little flames had finished surrounding Ling Tian's body. And strangely again, all the wounds on his body healed without leaving the slightest trace.

Ling Tian was suddenly able to move his body again, and he also felt a strange sensation running through each of his pore holes. His body was filled with vitality that he had never felt before.

"Thank you!" said Ling Tian while holding his fist then bowed to salute the small fire that was in front of him.

The small flames moved up and down as if they nodded understanding what Ling Tian was doing. However, suddenly with a speed that could not be seen by the eye, the tiny flames shot directly towards Ling Tian's dantian.

Ling Tian instantly felt his dantian become extremely hot. He reflexively sat cross-legged, then circulated his spiritual awareness to check what had happened to his dantian.

In his spiritual awareness, Ling Tian saw his dantian enlarge. From the size of a grape, now it has become the size of a guava.

The sealed meridians opened immediately. Immense pure energy flowed through his body through his Meridians. The countless pores suddenly opened, as if every cell in his body was starving as they all began to rapidly absorb the pure energy.

BANG

A muffled explosion came from within Ling Tian's body. His cultivation immediately rose to the fourth stage of Bronze Star.

BANG ... BANG

Muffled explosions continued to come from within Ling Tian's body, his cultivation continued to rise without any sign of stopping. Bronze Star fifth stage ... sixth stage ... seventh stage ... eighth stage ... ninth stage ....

BANG BANG BANG

Ling Tian was unable to stop him. Silver Star first stage ... second stage ... third stage ... fourth stage ... fifth stage ... sixth stage ... seventh stage ... eighth stage ... and finally comes to a halt at Silver Star ninth stage .

In just one day his cultivation had risen to 15 levels, which had never happened in the Mortal world nor in the Immortal world.

What is genius? Is that super genius? There is no right word to compare it to other than to call it MONSTER.

His dantian had also grown to the size of a watermelon. The Qi energy within was extremely pure, purer than all existing cultivators.

Before Ling Tian came to his senses, suddenly many images swirled in his mind. All of the pictures are about Heavenly knowledge. Such as martial arts, cultivation techniques, how to concoct pills, how to make formations (Array), how to forge weapons and so on.

From all the knowledge he had, Ling Tian finally knew that the small flames were the highest level flames of all types of flames, which were referred to as DIVINE FIRE.

Divine Fire was created by the Great God (Head of the Gods) from Earth (brown), from Water (blue), from Fire (red), from Wind (white), from Gold (yellow), from Lightning (purple), from Trees World (green). This is where the seven colors contained in the Divine Fire come from.

Divine flames were created millions of years ago to destroy the demons who were treasonous and planning to attack the kingdom of heaven. This is what is called the Era of the Gods.

And because of that, Ling Tian knew that he no longer needed to consolidate his cultivation foundation. Because his cultivation foundation had consolidated automatically whenever his cultivation rose due to Divine Flames.

Ling Tian circulated his spiritual awareness to examine Divine Flames, and it turned out that Divine Flames had fused into his body.

A while later, Ling Tian regained his spiritual consciousness and opened his eyes. He still felt that what he was experiencing right now was like a dream. Raised his arm, and with a command from Ling Tian's mind, he tried to bring out Divine Flames into his palm.

Divine Flames immediately appeared from Ling Tian's palm. Then with another thought command, he tried to re-enter the fire.

Ling Tian kept trying over and over again until he finally got used to the Divine Flames that were in his body. Now he is like a child who is very happy to get a new toy like that.
