Chapter 329 Chapter 329 Heaven's Will
"FLASH!" With but a single flick of a finger, a palm sized body of flame hovered over their figures.
This was of course our bored gamer's cast and this simple trick has brought light unto the inky embrace of the night.
"So it is really you. But how?!" Shi Ling muttered a second time and she could not believe her eyes at all.
The last time she had seen Clark Colter, he was only in the 7th Stage of Martial Realm.
Now... if her spiritual sense could be trusted, Shi Ling has found out that Master Clark was already in the 1st Stage of Innate Realm.
One should know that they had only been separated for 3 days. This kind of speed in cultivation was simply unheard of!
"Let's just say that i grow in strength whenever i get to practice my healing profession, Shi Ling."
Our good gamer answered and it was clear that he was not using the courteous call of Miss before he would utter Shi Ling's name. This was the perk of being strong.
One which our good gamer already belonged to at the moment with the use of his two precious items.
Thus, there was really no more need to remain cautious and keep the pretense of the act anymore.
"..." Shi Ling remained quiet for a breath or two before her demeanor changed into something a lot more savage.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was not a fool to not connect the dots that there was more than mere healing that happened in the fateful night.
Her innocence has been lost as consequence also which prompted her to believe the worst case origin of those events. Hate shone in her eyes when she asked the next of her questions.
"Do you belong to the Dual Cultivation Sect, Master Clark?"
"Are you a disciple of that cursed evil sect?!" Shi Ling took a step back and her whole body was shrouded in blue.
In the next breath, her eyes also bled the same azure light that contrasted her well enough from any other mortal in this world. She looked otherworldly in this new guise.
The wind stopped all of a sudden and it has brought a suffocating effect in the vicinity.
There was no doubt that Shi Ling would have attacked the moment our avid gamer would give the wrong reply at this time.
Our bored game was of course well aware to deter any further conflict with Shi Ling.
"So there's a Dual Cultivation Sect in this world, huh? Interesting!" Clark smiled and he was at ease in his stance.
It was like he did not even see the woman who was poised to strike him to death right now.
"I would very much want to visit such a sect someday. But i have no relationship with that sect today, Shi Ling." Our good gamer added after a breath.
"Say that with the Heaven's Will as your witness." Shi Ling goaded with one sentence. One should know that summoning the Heaven's Will was not a laughing matter.
Anything a cultivator said under the name of the Heaven's Will was absolute.
And if one was brave enough to utter a lie or break an oath under this divine influence then his or her soul shall be scattered back unto chaos.
Never stepping in the cycle of reincarnation. Never to be reborn.
"Under the Heaven's Will, I proclaim unto the world that I do not belong to the Dual Cultivation Sect." Our bored gamer rose up to the challenge.
"BANG!" A thunderous explosion occurred directly above them and the dark night was made even darker in the next second.
Afterwards, a great slit opened up in the heavens which took the image of a curious gigantic eye overhead.
The aura of doom passed over the scene and every mortal and even the proud cultivators had to keep their silence in the advent of this divine phenomena.
'Who was courageous enough to summon the Heaven's Will unto our lands?!'
This rang in the thoughts of the trained cultivators who were startled awake by this eerie presence in the horizon.
"..." A few breaths passed and the huge eye in the sky closed and left just like nothing happened.
The uncomfortable feeling went away with its passage and that has also made everyone breathe a little bit better in the next moments.
It was never good to know that someone or something existed above them that could easily crush their heads and extinguish their souls with a blink of an eye.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven those that have already reached the peak cultivation in this world felt like an ant in front of the mighty irresistible power of the Heaven's Will.
"So... did i pass the test?" Clark raised his arms as if saying that he has come in here with nothing but peace as his agenda.
On the other hand, Shi Ling was still raising her sword in a deadly stance that promised death when it landed.
She maintained the pose for 3 seconds more before she sheathed her sword to nothingness. It was quite a neat trick that could only be done with a handy storage ring on hand.
"Why have you come, Master Clark?" Shi Ling asked in a mere whisper.
"I have spent all my life cultivating with my master in seclusion. Now that i have done my training alone, i would love to explore this big beautiful world for my pleasure.
And since i have no particular place in mind, i have come to the conclusion that it would be better to start this journey with a lovely acquaintance beside me."
Our bored gamer said in length.
"I have matters to attend in the sect, Master Clark. Although i could let you come with me but i can't promise you anything once we get there.
But you don't have to worry, I won't forget that I still owe you a favor." Shi Ling replied.
"That's more than enough help for me, Shi Ling. I shan't disturb your practice in the sect." Clark reassured.
"..." Shi Ling looked at him in silence before she eventually nodded after a full minute had passed. She then turned around and continued where she left off.
A sweet aroma of a cooked magical beast meat flavored the dreary night anew.
