Chapter 668 As long as you're alive, there is always a chance

Hua Ying looked to be the most affected of all. A couple of times her legs looked like they were about to give out, and she couldn't conceal the dread in her eyes. She was pale, sweaty, and looked just about to vomit.

The healing period of the life essence that was sucked out for the remedy of the curse of the graveyard torch turned out to be a blessing in disguise for her. Without being able to cultivate, or meditate meant that she was essentially a non-cultivator and was therefore not at risk of her qi turning erratic because of how unbalanced she was.

All she had was an accelerated heart rate increased perspiration and maybe a bout of nausea and dizziness which were child's play in comparison to what qi deviation would do to her body or if her mental demons were triggered.

The four cultivators slowly walked out each lost in their thoughts.

Yang Qing seemed hesitant about something but ultimately decided to go through with it.

"Wu Shen...Don't turn just continue walking.." Yang Qing said as he used his palace sense to transmit his words to Wu Shen without notice from the other three.

As a palace realm master himself, Li Yao did detect the undulations of a palace sense being deployed, but he didn't say anything only throwing a curious glance at the group of four.

Wu Shen whose legs had jerked slightly from the appearance of Yang Qing's voice in his mind, quickly regained firmness in his steps as he continued walking, heeding Yang Qing's suggestion.

"Earlier you said when Pavilion Master Li Yao healed you, you felt like he had preserved a vital part of you. You were right, his intervention managed to protect something. He protected your budding dao heart.

I bet for some time now you could already feel that whenever you executed your fist art it felt vastly different from what it normally was. Like they were guided by some mystical force.

Growing arts are a product of that state. They're arts that have long since met the requirements of being baptized by one of the mysterious truths and have just fallen short of one single step. That step is opening the door to the mysteries it guides to.

The key is already there in the art, it just needs someone who knows it well enough and to the door it points towards.

As long as you or anyone from your sect deepens their understanding of your cultivation art, eventually, you will see that door, that door that has eluded most, the door to the palace realm.

You don't need the inheritance enlightenment blood crystals, nor do you need to ride the coattails of someone else who you think has better chances than you at producing a palace realm expert.

Your chances of reaching that level are much much higher as long as you are willing to assiduously walk on the path your cultivation art is guiding you toward.

As to why I'm telling you all this, let's just say I have a sentimental spot for cultivation arts, and I am curious to see what heights yours will reach rather than it getting buried in the annals of time.

I don't know what your friends from the Xin Clan, Hua Clan, or the Moon Essence Cauldron Sect will decide, but for you, your sect has a choice at a life outside of here.

Even if starting over is difficult,for you it will be slightly easier as long as you have your cultivation art. You will be able to gain a solid footing.

Like I told your compatriots, the waters of the Deer Mountain Range are dangerously deep, deep to the point that even the Deer Mountain Kingdom cannot guarantee its safety.

Choose wisely, and if you don't know where to head, you can try the territory of the Diamond Body Sect, they will relish the opportunity of having your sect in their territory. It's a fair distance away from here, but you can use mercenary escorts to guide you there.

I would recommend the Wind Gliding Mercenary Escorts. As long as you're alive, there is always a chance, don't forget that. That is all.." Yang Qing said as he disconnected his palace sense from Wu Shen.

They were already at the boundary of the array that covered the branch. Wu Shen took the lead and bowed in gratitude to both Li Yao and Yang Qing.

The other three emulated his actions, but they seemed distracted even while doing it. After their gratitude, they all turned and left, each to decide with their respective organizations what was next for them.
