A gentle breeze brushed by, bringing a hint of coolness. Unknowingly, time had passed for quite a while.
At this moment, the sun had quietly risen from the mountains, warm rays of light filtering through the thin clouds, casting a soft glow.
"Mother, I understand."
Ye Tian finally came to his senses after standing in a daze for about the time it takes to burn an incense stick.
Having endured hardships since childhood, his mental fortitude had long surpassed that of ordinary people. After calming himself from the earlier turmoil, he had fully accepted this reality.
Yu Xiaorong nodded in satisfaction and smiled. Then, with a hint of regret in her voice, she said softly, "Child, you showed extraordinary talent in martial arts when you were young, but I did not want you to pursue it. I wanted you to live an ordinary life—one that is simple and happy through hard work."
"Mother..." Ye Tian called out softly, his eyes reddening again.
"Ha ha, but I was wrong." Yu Xiaorong shook her head self-deprecatingly, regret swirling in her gaze as she said, "I forgot the principle of this world—Heavenly Choice Continent, survival of the fittest!"
Ye Tian's body trembled slightly, and his fists clenched tightly. However, he remained silent and earnestly waited for his mother to continue.
"If I had encouraged you to pursue martial cultivation earlier, how could you have suffered so much humiliation? Perhaps by now you would already be one of the top experts in Spirit Martial Town." With a gentle smile on her face, she was well aware of her child's potential.
"Mother, don't worry. I will not disappoint you," Ye Tian said firmly, nodding at his mother.
"Xiao Tian, although I say this, if possible, I still hope you can let go of your hatred and live a normal life," Yu Xiaorong shifted her tone and began to advise Ye Tian again.
"Why? Didn't you just say that? Heavenly Choice Continent—survival of the fittest. Without strength, one can never control their own fate in this world!" As he spoke, a trace of pain flashed across Ye Tian's youthful face. Tears welled up in his eyes again as he said to his mother, "Let alone protecting those closest to me..."
"Xiao Tian, you are mistaken. Even if one possesses overwhelming strength that surpasses all others, they ultimately cannot overcome the hearts of people," Yu Xiaorong's tone was filled with both regret and sorrow.
She looked up towards the unknown distance, where there seemed to be a graceful figure standing against the wind, fighting fiercely.
"As long as one is human, there will definitely be weaknesses..." Yu Xiaorong sighed lightly, staring blankly, seemingly lost in thought.
"Is it true that humans must have weaknesses..." Ye Tian repeated this sentence in his heart: "Even someone as strong as Martial God Definition must have weaknesses..."
"That's right, even peak experts above War God have weaknesses." At some point, his mother had already withdrawn her gaze and turned to look at Ye Tian, as if she had read his thoughts.
"Is there a higher definition beyond War God?" This was the first time Ye Tian had heard such a statement, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
Yu Xiaorong nodded and then shook her head, finally giving a wry smile and saying, "Even if I tell you, you probably won't understand for now."
"Oh." Ye Tian responded and continued to ask, "Mother, I heard that the strength of Martial God Definition can crush mountains and block rivers with just a wave of their hand. Such formidable power still has weaknesses?"
"Of course, their weaknesses do not lie within themselves but in external factors."
Ye Tian tilted his head and suddenly realized, "Mother means desires?!"
Yu Xiaorong smiled and nodded, expressing her approval: "Some people can kill for wealth, some can kill for beauty, and some can kill for Spiritual Pill in martial arts. Because they desire these things, that desire becomes their weakness."
"Mother, I understand. You want to tell me to be content with little?" Ye Tian asked.
"Xiao Tian." Yu Xiaorong paused for a moment and said gently: "What I want to tell you is to be content."
"Be content?" Ye Tian was somewhat puzzled.
"That's right, be content." His mother stepped forward, her gaze filled with patience as she explained: "Only by being content can one have no regrets; without regrets, one can have no desires; and without desires, one becomes strong. Just as you said earlier, the weakness of a person is indeed desire!"
Ye Tian nodded, indicating that he understood the reasoning behind it. However, after a moment of thought, another question arose in his mind, so he asked, "Mother, what do you mean by telling me this?"
Yu Xiaorong smiled gently and then became serious, saying, "I want to tell you not to think about avenging me anymore; revenge is the strongest desire in this world."
Ye Tian was taken aback; he didn't expect his mother to go through such a long explanation just to dissuade him from seeking revenge.
Thinking of this, Ye Tian couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself. He had to take revenge, but he replied verbally, "Don't worry, Mother. I won't seek revenge on Wang Weiyang."
"Really?" A smile blossomed on Yu Xiaorong's delicate and beautiful face, resembling a blue lotus.
"Really!" Ye Tian nodded heavily, though he felt a bit uncomfortable inside for lying.
"Mother, I have a few things I want to ask you." Ye Tian quickly changed the subject, fearing he might slip up.
Nodding, Yu Xiaorong smiled softly and said, "Go ahead."
"Um..." Ye Tian pondered for a moment and said, "How did you..."
"I died because I forcibly broke through the forbidden technique within my body and recklessly used the Five Element Profound Body, which caused a backlash," Yu Xiaorong preemptively answered, knowing what Ye Tian was going to ask.
"What do you mean? Can you explain it more clearly? Also, will I still be able to meet you like this in the future?" Ye Tian pressed on.
"Regarding the forbidden technique in my body, it is related to your father, so I can't explain it clearly right now. If you have the chance to visit the Spirit Sect in the future, look for someone named Yu Ning Tian; he will tell you."
"Yu Ning Tian..." Ye Tian contemplated this name in his mind. The Yu surname was also his mother's surname; he wondered what their relationship was.
Just as Ye Tian was lost in thought, his mother's voice came again: "As for your second question, due to the limitations of the forbidden technique, we can only meet like this at most once a year."
"Really?!" Ye Tian exclaimed with great joy. Even if it was only once a year, it was still a thousand times better than visiting a lonely grave.
Seeing Ye Tian's happiness, Yu Xiaorong's lips curled into a satisfied smile.
After a moment of laughter, Ye Tian's expression suddenly darkened again, and he asked softly, "Mother, is there really no way to bring you back completely?"
"No..." Yu Xiaorong shook her head, but then she smiled gently and comforted him, "Xiao Tian, isn't this good? Although I can't come back completely, I will never truly die. As long as you work hard in your cultivation and reach those realms that transcend life and death, then we can be together forever."
"Yes!" Ye Tian nodded heavily, his tone firm as he said, "Mother, I will definitely work hard in my cultivation!"
Yu Xiaorong smiled warmly and said, "Xiao Tian, what did you just promise your mother?"
"What?" Ye Tian tilted his head in confusion.
"You child, did you not promise your mother that you would stop seeking revenge?" she feigned anger.
"Oh... right..." Ye Tian felt a bit bewildered.
"Will you keep your word?"
"Yes!" Ye Tian nodded heavily again, but in his heart he felt guilty as he thought, "Mother, if it weren't for Wang Weiyang, we wouldn't have to meet like this. I must take revenge!"
"What a good child," Yu Xiaorong said with a smile. "Then I can rest assured to teach you the method for refining the Spirit Pouch."
"Spirit Pouch?" Ye Tian asked in confusion.
"That's right. Remember this well: the method for refining the Spirit Pouch is very simple. You just need to memorize the incantation and practice it regularly."
After saying that, without caring about Ye Tian's reaction, Yu Xiaorong began to recite the incantation for the Spirit Pouch.
"All things have spirits, the human heart condenses the soul, how to store the spirit, how to return the soul..."
The Forest was quiet, only her gentle voice floated lightly.
In a moment, the incantation was completed, consisting of twelve lines, and it was not difficult, so Ye Tian had firmly memorized it after just one hearing.
"Did you remember it?" Yu Xiaorong asked gently.
"I remembered it." After saying this, Ye Tian recited it aloud.
Once Ye Tian finished repeating it, Yu Xiaorong nodded in satisfaction and continued, "Although refining the Spirit Pouch is easy, opening the Spirit Pouch is somewhat challenging."
At this point, she frowned and looked Ye Tian up and down as if confirming his abilities. After a moment, she spoke again: "To open the Spirit Pouch, you need at least an Earth Level One Spirit Beast Inner Pill as a catalyst."
"Oh?" Ye Tian expressed slight confusion; it seemed that the method of refining the Spirit Pouch was quite different from martial arts cultivation. It directly relied on external forces, which was not the way of the Martial Sovereign...
"Next is the incantation for opening the Spirit Pouch; pay close attention."
His mother's voice interrupted Ye Tian's thoughts as complex characters appeared in his mind. Compared to the refining incantation, although this one consisted of only about thirty words, Ye Tian had to listen three times before he could memorize it.
"Mother, I have a few questions I want to ask you." Ye Tian decided to voice all his doubts.
Yu Xiaorong smiled and nodded, saying, "Ask whatever you want; anything I can tell you, I will."
"Okay." Ye Tian replied and then said, "Mother, within the Martial Sovereign realm, Spiritual Pills and Spiritual Materials are looked down upon. However, the way of the Spirit Pouch seems quite different. I wonder..."
"This is the foundational cultivation method of the Spirit Sect. Only by mastering it can one qualify to cultivate the Five Element Profound Body," Yu Xiaorong replied with a smile.
"Spirit Sect!" Ye Tian gasped in surprise.
"For thousands of years, the Spirit Martial Dark Three Sects have been in mutual conflict, even to the point of being incompatible. Therefore, after you successfully cultivate the Spirit Pouch, you must be careful in its use. If someone recognizes it, it could lead to unnecessary trouble," Yu Xiaorong warned seriously.
"Mother, what exactly are you and Father’s identities?" Ye Tian blurted out, not following his mother's lead.
"It’s better for you not to know your father and my identities just yet," Yu Xiaorong sighed lightly, feeling a bit guilty.
"Mother, you are from the Spirit Sect, right?" Ye Tian recalled the Spiritual Treasure Compendium and the Heavenly Fire Heart Furnace and asked again.
Yu Xiaorong shook her head and said softly, "Xiao Tian, don’t ask. Before you reach that level of strength, I fear knowing too much will bring you trouble."
"What level of strength?" Ye Tian asked excitedly.
"What level of strength..." His mother’s gaze drifted far away as if she were looking at a handsome figure who had long since left her. She seemed a bit lost as she said, "That Heavenly Secrets Register likely requires reaching..."
At this point, Yu Xiaorong suddenly came back to herself and quickly stopped speaking.
"The Heavenly Secrets Register..." Ye Tian silently repeated in his heart, firmly committing those three words to memory.
