Ling Tian's
Longing
Ling Tian realized one thing was certain, that it was impossible for one to be able to combine two manuals at once. There will be one of them defeated.
What happened to Wei Hun. The devourer manual was not his original manual that he was working on. Ling Tian guessed that Wei Hun learned the manuals and techniques of the devourer sword only because of the command of someone who gave the two books and purposely assigned Wei Hun to train in the devourer techniques that were given specifically for him.
Ling Tian was extremely grateful as well as curious about the identity of that person. Is it possible that that person was the one who met him in a dream and gave him a jade badge or someone else? A few questions filled Ling Tian's brain.
"alright.. I'll start now!" ling Tian said.
Ling Tian began his training of the devouring sword technique. Start by reading to completion and continue to repeat from the beginning and until finished again. He does it every time he wants to practice something new. Because it will be more effective and likely to succeed even though it is not perfect when trying the first practice.
The days keep passing. Days change weeks, weeks change months and months change years. In that time struggle, Ling Tian continued to fill it with practice, practice and continue to practice, whether it was refining cultivation manuals or devouring sword techniques.
Ling Tian also did not expect that the very simple-looking movements of Wei Hun that he had seen nearly two and a half years ago were very difficult for him to practice. If it counted since the beginning of Ling Tian's departure from the Ling Clan then Ling Tian right today had already left them for two years and eight months. Nevertheless Ling Tian never felt despair or gave up on training and became as strong as what he was attached to before leaving the clan. He continued to force himself to train beyond his limits.
Until the results do not betray his efforts. Ling Tian managed to master eighty-five percent of the devouring manuals and was able to use the fourth movement of the Eater Sword Technique; devouring Everything and the other three. Even so, because Ling Tian had not mastered the devouring manual perfectly then when he forced to use the fourth movement then his body would feel burdened with weight. It is also likely to be injured in considerable weight and run out of steam. Ling Tian's cultivation had also increased quite satisfactorily. Currently Ling Tian was in the realm of a 3-Star Intermediate Gold Swordsman who would be equivalent to a 3-Star Intermediate Platinum Swordsman if it fought seriously and used his flagship style.
Wei Hun and Long Yuan were still faithfully watching Ling Tian to practice. Sometimes one of them would Ling Tian invite to practice a match.

Ling Clan, Cemara Village.
A middle-aged woman was sitting contemplating alone in the back of her house. He turned his gaze towards the faraway where the Dark Forest was. Her tears could no longer be contained and spilled down her cheeks.
"Aunt Si.." said a beautiful young girl who surprised Ling Tian's mother.
"ah! Huaer.."
"Auntie crying again? Did aunt miss and worry about big brother Tian again?" asked the girl who was none other than Ling Lianhua, the girl that Ling Tian had met despite accidentally.
Ling Lianhua hugged Hei Si gently and tried to calm the woman's heart. Ling Lianhua loved Hei Si very much. She had already considered Hei Si as her own mother because Lianhua's mother had long since passed away.
"Auntie rest assured! Big Brother Tian must be fine! And somehow I have confidence that big brother Tian will come back to surprise us all!" said Ling Lianhua as she continued to hug Hei Si.
It was Ling Lianhua who accompanied Hei Si for almost a year, Ling Tian's mother. It started and for some reason Ling Lianhua suddenly came to Hei Si's residence and wanted to ask if Ling Tian had returned to the clan.
But who would have thought that when Ling Lianhua had reached the intended residence, she saw Ling Tian's mother crying from worrying and missing her son Ling Tian. Finally Ling Lianhua came to Ling Tian's mother and comforted her. Not to forget he also introduced himself as a friend of his son Ling Tian.

"Why does my heart suddenly hurt so much? And this..? Why are my tears flowing?" ling Tian said instantly stopping his training.
