Heart Cultivation 278 Complete The Incomplete

Lin'an wanted to run away from this Manias because of confinement, she has refused to walk on the path which her mother several times forced her.

She was unwilling to choose that path because it would turn her heart as evil as her mother's, the two armors of spirituality would no more remain the same, her nature would blemish with the time.

Two armors of cult cultivation can grant insane power against a normal cultivator but Lin'an disliked such bleak power that was forbidden by the present Defender of Celestial Sphere.

She heard from her father that present Defender was an upright person and he has forbidden the dark methods to throw a heart in the turmoil, it was true a heart would suffer when a cultivator would choose such bleak path, and in the end it would turn evil with the time but the initial suffering cannot be neglected, the more it would suffer the more evil it would turn.

Heart can allow for two armors to learn but two armors of cult cultivation would burn away the actual existence of the heart, it can be said that the heart would not feel belonging with the blood relations, the emotions and all feelings would burn away too, perhaps this was the reason that her mother killed her father with her own hands, Lin'an whenever thought about it, she wanted to cry out loud to lessen her grief but she always muffled her own screams else her mother would come looking for her, not to console but punish.

Why would she chose a path which was hateful for her father back then, she heard many arguments between her mother and her father about this choice, her father was against this choice while her mother has already chosen not considering her father.

And no matter how hard her mother wanted to hide this fact, Lin'an was small but not stupid, she was aware what caused the death of her father and he was killed.

All these years she wanted to run away and finally was fortunate enough to break the confinement, now she don't want to stay any longer and caught in again.

Her mother was villainess and she wanted her daughter to choose the same path, how could she choose a path where she no longer would be able to feel sympathy for others.

The only choice was to run away and that's what she was doing now, she exited the fiber barrier after taking a last look at her birth place.

Lin'an removed the tears from her cheeks and left.

Zhi Chang and Jen settled in their separate rooms.

At least, in this abode, they don't need to remain alert about the attendant who was trying to rob them and waiting only for an opportunity.

"You are still thinking about that girl?" Zhi Chang could see Jen was standing absentmindedly.

"She was hiding something and perhaps she was not willing to trust anyone, this could be the reason," Jen was thinking how grave can be the reason for her impatience to leave, she don't seemed to offend someone ordinary, perhaps Crown lady, who knows.

"Since we are staying in this Manias for little longer, we'll eventually find out,"Zhi Chang spoke.

"Senior was quite efficient in grasping the technique, you can try to learn an aptitude along with the practice of this technique," Jen suggested, the three months stay should not be wasted, she would try to find out the root of the current situation in this Manias while Zhi Chang would be able to comprehend how a dominion work and use in actual battle, being his first head on today, he was quite efficient learner.

"I think I should learn sparing first because I still lack a necessary force behind my dominion which is due to lack of practice," he suggested, to some extent it was true though his Legend level dominion carried the force but it was not as powerful as it should be, the aura was there but where was the actual strength, the mugger was not going all out perhaps for some reason or he was just a coward who could brag at the shoulders of his friends.

Zhi Chang was also aware how he was able to stand for long, it was due to her guard against hidden enemies those wanted to ambush and what if he was alone, what would have happen then?

"Challenger Shillelagh can prove a better place for practice, but I don't think it would be working considering the current situation in this Manias, challenger shillelagh is a best place for cultivators to practice and earn too," Jen remembered when she was alone and penniless, she challenged a winner back then and she earned gold pins which she spent to buy food, few herbs and remedies for an apprentice.

"Then I should focus on the aptitude learning," he smiled, he could feel that Jen don't want to leave early and it was normal, she won't leave until she bring peace and settle the conditions here, he remembered she was appointed Defender buy the emperor of the lower sphere at the age of sixteen and she defeated the ruthless and powerful enemy who was bone in the throat.

She was not the type of to get feared and back down, in his eyes, she was suitable to get the highest position of this sphere.

"Don't forget to bring me along if you intend to meet the crown of this sphere," he spoke in a way that was not authoritative nor weak but a composed, willing and dedicated.

"It would disturb your learning and focus, I might look for you if I caught in trouble," she smiled lightly and moved back, Zhi Chang and Jen both were facing the central market, the shops were half closed while half of them were still running business, when she turned smiling she hurriedly stood against the back of Zhi Chang.

Someone was here to ambush in the night.

The mugger brought lazy toad along with him, lazy was not willing to believe so mugger suggested that he should go with them and witness with his own eyes, they planned to ambush in the night thinking that no one will be able to spot them.

Jen by chance moved and saw a fat man standing against the wind and attacked silently.

She could not garner enough time and the weapon hit her, since her heart was at ease and her mind was also not sinking in any battle scenario so the solar star was not active, this was first ever that Jen was peaceful while talking to someone without letting her solar star active and on guard.

Sigh, the moments when heart is distracted, is the moment when enemy appears.

Jen extended her hand and few arrows aimed toward fat man, meantime Zhi Chang felt something amiss and turned around, he spotted fat man and gritted his teeth.

But before he could do anything, the arrows hit the fat man and he fell screaming because the arrows hit his spread dominion and the central acmes pair got damaged, he could not fend off these arrows until the force behind died down.

Jen fell on the floor, Zhi Chang looked around and make sure that there was no other enemy, he saw the fat man screaming and running away, he bent down and held Jen in his arms, she was keeping her eyes open, it was necessary, she let her peace envelope her so that blood would not waste much, the scissors weapon has caused her body riddled all around, blood was still seeping, the scissors seemed poisoned or there was hidden technique she could not understand it.

The city archon was also practicing the cult cultivation and that's how he became second strongest person of this Manias, and the technique he used for his ambush carried the same blood red dominion like the crown lady.

Jen was a supreme cultivator and less strong than the toad, toad was at the peak of second level of Legend Realm while Jen was only a primary Legend, the difference was huge and she was also not prepared, the cult technique was hurting her heart directly until she forcefully defeat this evil force which was inserted with the help of weapons.

Currently she was suffering immensely, "Jen, hold on, I will go look for someone," he carried her in his arms and walked down stairs.

She was still conscious and clutched his robes to stop him, he looked at her bewildered thinking she stopped him, "Just be on guards and wait, no need to look for someone," it would be useless if he went to find someone, this Manias might not be able to provide something useful for her current situation.

"Be on my side," she tightly gripped his robes, the cult force was trying to tint her heart, being supreme was not always beneficial, if she happened to be extreme this cult dominion might not cause much suffering.
