Running Away from Home

But when Mage He looked at the Mother-and-Child Vicious Ghosts, he saw not a trace of Grievance Aura on them. His heart sank. His calculations had come to nothing! An expert needed only to make one move to show what he was made of!

To the people of the Three Households, it was merely a spectacle. Mage He, however, saw far more.

"He washed away the Grievance Aura of such formidable Mother-and-Child Vicious Ghosts in just four days... At the very least, that should only be possible after Spirit Terrace Formation..."

Without a Spirit Terrace to keep the Heavenly Heart lit at all times, how could anyone cast spells freely enough to guide them to the afterlife in a mere four days?

In this age, Forging the Spirit Terrace was a realm found only in myths and legends.

Mage He himself had cultivated for more than thirty years and even encountered a stroke of extraordinary fortune, yet he was still nowhere near Forging the Spirit Terrace.

For a moment, he felt profound awe and fear toward Tang Changsheng.

The General's Temple truly is the General's Temple, a great sect with a lineage in Lower River. It's not something a Rogue Cultivator like me can compare with... I'd best stay out of this, lest the General's Temple misunderstand!

Of course, Mage He did not know that Tang Changsheng possessed a treasure like the Primordial Yang Divine Lamp, which could aid his Heavenly Heart.

That led him to believe Tang Changsheng had already achieved Forging the Spirit Terrace!
