Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

Chapter 947: Maybe If...

Three days later, Ling Tian opened his eyes and a mouthful of turbid air came out when he opened his mouth at once. 

All the impurities and negative energies from healing his body were finally secreted. 

Ling Tian stood up and stretched his body, feeling much better. 

Ling Tian's entire body at this moment had returned to its perfection. A white skin, smooth and perfect to the sight and touch, black hair that gradually grew and regained its luster, a face of unparalleled charm, and with a slightly thin but strong and energetic body, made Ling Tian an unparalleled handsome young man. 

The places on his body where previously some muscles and parts of bones could be seen had disappeared, leaving a body that exuded beauty and perfection, fully recovered. 

A strong vital energy was circulating in his body, as if brimming with energy. 

"This place is still slowly growing and developing..." 

Ling Tian looked around, observing that the empty, lifeless greyness was diminishing, and vitality was slowly growing, bringing life to the entire space. 

"I need more lakes of spirits and sacred treasures to plant here!" 

Ling Tian's face glowed as he thought of collecting more treasures from heaven and earth. Planting them in this place would undoubtedly make the small world grow, and at the same time the sacred treasures would grow. 

The lakes and treasures of heaven born from the earth, it would not be difficult to transfer them to this space. With the knowledge and ways that Ling Tian had learned before, it is enough to be able to fill this small world with treasures of heaven and earth. 

Before leaving this place, Ling Tian took out the Spiritual Peach of Enlightenment and placed it in an area on the shore of the lake of spirits, removing the suppressive seal on it as well. He created several formations and matrices where some of the spiritual energy was directed towards this peach. 

Once the Spiritual Peach of Enlightenment matures and produces a seed, it can grow back into a spiritual tree like no other. And with the help of this place, the Spiritual Peach of Enlightenment will grow again and may even evolve into an immortal fruit if given enough time! 

Ling Tian also checked the sea of his heart, where the twin spiritual trees lay. Both spirit trees were very dry, and a poor and weak vital energy barely emerged from them. The sea of the heart had also dried up completely. 

Concentrating the great circuit of the 9 chi circulations in his body towards his heart, Ling Tian smiled gratefully at the twin spirit trees, so he let them rest and recover so that they would not die. The energy in his heart sea gradually grew, and both spirit trees began to recover their energies as well. 

"Uhm?" 

Ling Tian wanted to leave this space when his spirit sense casually scanned outside. A bit of surprise covered him when he realized that this space seemed to be on Yun Mengxin's hand, specifically on her ring finger;the little mysterious world was attached to the wedding ring on her finger, being with her all the time. 

But what surprised him even more, was that Ling Tian noticed that the Little Mysterious World appeared to be a tiny seed that was invisible to the naked eye, like a grain of sand but very tiny and made of crystal, when before the little mysterious world was the size of a small glass ball that was almost the length of a plum. 

Could it be that the Little Mysterious World could undergo quite noticeable changes, enough to make it eventually blend into the void or disappear into space and no one could find it? 

Ling Tian knew from the beginning that Yun Mengxin had taken over the little mysterious world, as he reminded her too of what would happen once he entered this space. Ling Tian was simply a little surprised to see that Yun Mengxin kept it with her at all times. 

Knowing that everything was under control, Ling Tian finally left this place after 3 days. 

... 

Sitting on a large flat stone with her legs crossed, while a natural cold aura that seemed to have snowflakes floating around, Yun Mengxin kept her eyes closed as a delicate and fine sword lay silently on her legs while a continuous flow of her cultivation base connected with the sword. 

Suddenly, Yun Mengxin's calm and indifferent face revealed a gentle smile. 

"You want to surprise me?" 

Surprisingly, Yun Mengxin asked with a flirtatious tone as a pair of arms encircled her body the next second, hugging her from behind as a charmingly familiar and characteristic scent reached her delicate nose. She finally opened her eyes and glanced back sidelong. 

"Can't a husband show affection to his beloved wife at any time?" 

Ling Tian whispered with a mischievous smile, hugging Yun Mengxin and wrapping his arms around her, feeling her skin and all over her soft, wonderful body. He brought his face close and kissed her slender jade neck, then lovingly kissed Yun Mengxin's soft ear. 

A stream of emotions welled up from Yun Mengxin's heart, spreading to her whole body in an instant. Yun Mengxin leaned on Ling Tian's body and closed her eyes at ease, she placed her own arms over Ling Tian's arms indicating her feelings and wanting him not to stop hugging her, feeling sweet and loved, completely protected from the world at this moment in the arms of her great husband. 

The aura around Yun Mengxin which was previously a cold aura, appeared a warm aura when Ling Tian appeared. The cold aura and the warm aura merged and blended into one aura from the very beginning, coexisting in perfect harmony without any problem. 

A long time passed without anyone disturbing them. There were no words, no thoughts or topics of conversation of other things, they simply transmitted their purest feelings to each other through their hearts. 

"Did you get completely recovered?" 

After a while, Yun Mengxin slightly opened her eyes and asked softly, but still with a tone of concern. She kept smelling Ling Tian's scent, still not wanting to part from him right now. 

After 3 days of Ling Tian not appearing, Yun Mengxin and the other women were still worried about him. 

If it wasn't for Yun Mengxin assuring them that she could sense Ling Tian's aura, and her other sisters sensing their connections with Ling Tian as well, the others would think that something bad might have happened. 

"Uhm! I've finished healing my entire body. Now I'm ready to practice those divine level techniques." Ling Tian replied with a smile, assuring Yun Mengxin that there was no problem with his body and in fact, he had gained more strength. 

Ling Tian also explained to Yun Mengxin about the divine techniques, and what each required. After all this time, Ling Tian had thoroughly studied the three techniques and the taboo cultivation technique, understanding their levels of difficulty and what they represented. He had already told a little to Zhang Xinya, who told all the other women. 

However, Ling Tian said nothing about the memory he received of Yun Mengxin's death at the hands of those Heavenly Gods. His eyes watched Yun Mengxin in his arms, promising himself that this time, he will protect her and not let anything bad happen to her and his other beloved wives. 

This time, Ling Tian began to explain in his own words about the abandoned world he had gone to, and told about what he found, being the World Lake of the King of Spirits, the Spiritual Veins and a high-ranking Mineral Vein of Spiritual Crystals. All these sacred treasures he placed in the Little Mysterious World, where he planted the five-petalled lotus that Luo Hongmeng gave him, as well as the Spiritual Peach of Enlightenment. 

"I would have loved to have met Sister Hongmeng... she certainly would have made a great sister and a great wife too!" 

Yun Mengxin said a little wistfully at first when she understood about the origin of the five-colored lotus, then she smiled slyly and looked at Ling Tian from the corner of her eye. Her blue eyes shone softly, smiling full of complicity as if she was happy that Ling Tian was able to get such a wonderful woman even if it was for a short time. 

Ling Tian looked into her eyes and let out a helpless smile, he shook his head. Somehow he feels that even though Yun Mengxin is jealous like his other wives on the subject of women, she still feels happier that he had found another woman and sincere feelings were born between the two of them. 

"Bygones are bygones, and it's something I can't change even if I tried my hardest... but Hongmeng will always have a place in my heart!" 

Ling Tian smiled softly, a smile mixed with nostalgia and love at the thought of Luo Hongmeng. Although his feelings were developed in the world of illusion, they are still genuine and sincere feelings, completely real. 

Everything he lived and experienced with Luo Hongmeng was a great priceless experience, and he will surely still continue to receive surprises in the future with that unique lotus of the 5 elements. 

"You're right, the past is something that can't be changed, neither you, me, nor anyone else can, but that doesn't mean we can't in the future!" Yun Mengxin suddenly added, looking at him with eyes full of wisdom and experience. 

Ling Tian was stunned for a moment as he listened to Yun Mengxin. She is right, his current self does not have the strength or ability to alter the past, but in the future he will become stronger, ascend to the territory of the gods and attain new realms and an unknown strength, a power Ling Tian cannot yet imagine. 

Who knows if there are beings in the universe that can interfere with the world completely, with life, altering the course and changing the course in a different way? That would prove that the strength has reached a specific point! 

There could even be a realm in which it can interfere with all the laws of the universe, selecting and using the right laws. That way, a person in the past or even in the future could be brought to a specific time, and the destiny would change completely. 

Then Luo Hongmeng could exist again even if her soul has been scattered and lost completely! 

'Maybe if... maybe if I can attain a power strong enough to interfere with the world and the universe, I can interfere with the cycle of reincarnation to save Hongmeng! If I can't, then I will interfere with the power of time and space... and if not, then I will look for ways to bring her back to life! 

If I cannot protect and keep my women with me, then what is the point of fighting to attain a higher power? 

What is the point of cultivating? 

What is the purpose of cultivation and power if in the end loneliness is all that is left?'
