Chapter 59 - Dragon King of the east sea

Back in at the emotion severing cliff, at this moment the weather had already changed and a great tribulation was brewing. This time it was not a thunder trial but it was a test of the mind and the heart. To others it might be a bit hard but to Taiyi who no longer had any emotions it was definitely easy. Of course this was the mind test but the heart test was a whole different story. Even Taiyi was not sure that he was going to pass it. He was only around thirty percent sure but to him this was enough. At this moment Taiyi was still sound asleep and the trial had already begun. Taiyi found himself in the middle of nowhere standing a top a mountain. Years passed by and Taiyi did not know how much time had passed. During this time he had tried to leave the mountain but nothing worked. No matter what he tried to do it did not work out. As the days passed by his mind grew chaotic and his memories soon started disappearing and at some point he even forgot himself but even then he never forgot his purpose and his drive. He made sure to keep his principles and decided to just meditate taking everything to be normal. He spent his time meditating until he one day felt his life slipping away past him. At that time he felt something but he could not hold onto that feeling. He seemed to have understood something but he did not know what it was. He opened his eyes as he felt his life slipping away and at this moment his consciousness returned and he opened his eyes. His eyes were deep and his cultivation also seemed to have increased but his emotionless dao was on the verge of breaking and he knew that he could no longer keep it so he did nothing to try and fix his dao. At this moment there was a different type of dao that seemed to be on its growth phase and Taiyi could see it but he could not access it nor could he understand it. He rested for a few days as he realised that his mental energy was depleted after the mind test was over. He had successfully passed the mind test but what actually came next was the biggest challenge for him. Taiyi thought that he could rest but just as he wanted to recover his lost mental energy he was forced to stop. By forcing himself to comprehend a new dao he was already breaking the rules so how could the heavens allow such a thing to happen. Taiyi had to be destroyed which was why the test cake earlier than he expected. The heart trial was a major challenge and even Taiyi was unsure if he would pass it so he quickly drank the wine that he had took from the war monkey. At this moment in the fire realm, Feng Jiu had already returned but she immediately left. Her daughter who she had just brought from the mortal realm was still a mortal so she had to go to the east sea to have a 'talk' with the dragon king of the east sea to grant her the spring of nourishment and enlightment so that her daughter's body can easily adapt with the heavenly laws and spiritual energy of the heavenly realm. After leaving the mortal realm she decided to rename her daughter and called her Feng Tie Ling. She did not want her daughter to inherit the name Song. Although Tie Hongchen who was Feng Jiu's spirit was the mother of Tie Ling the baby technically belonged to Feng Jiu. When Feng Jiu left the heavenly realm, she had done the deed with Taiyi which was actually taboo as Taiyi was her master but after doing it she knew that she would be chased out of the heavenly realm which was why sheleft by her own accord. Although Tie Hongchen and Qin Tai Jian had also done it it was impossible for the baby to survive even if Feng Jiu was a god so at that time she had an idea. If she could allow Tie Hongchen to carry the baby that she had then it would be very easy for the baby to be born and moreover she wanted to give the baby a father and Song Taiyi who at that time was Tai Jian needed a reason to live so it was a win win situation for both. With Tai Jian as a father it could be counted as Taiyi having done his duty as her father. Moreover time flower differently in the mortal realm so Feng Jiu's child would be born early and would definitely mature up much faster than anyone else but the problem came BT when she brought Tie Ling back to the fire realm as she could definitely not live well in the fire realm. First of all, she had Taiyi's blood which meant that she was a half dragon and a half phoenix but these two bloodlines were still dormant so the only way to activate them is by nourishing her with the water from the spring of nourishment and the spring of enlightment as only them can she be able to control her energy and activate her bloodline. Feng Jiu was not worried about any of this rather she knew that if she were to activate her dormant bloodlines then Taiyi would definitely feel it and at that time she would not he able to face Taiyi. She might even be unsure of how to face him. To her Taiyi was definitely not fit to be a father but after witnessing how much he cared about his daughter in the mortal realm Feng Jiu thought that Taiyi would definitely change but after thinking about all the responsibilities and power that Taiyi held she felt that it was impossible especially after she learnt that Taiyi hadndecided to once again pay a visit to the emotion severing cliff. The emotion severing cliff was a place that many people feared and if it was to be marked then it would definitely be marked as the most dangerous place in heaven but to Taiyi it was more like his backyard. After Taiyi passed and came back from that place many people had tried but most of them ended up in failure and since then most people had forgotten about it so the message that soon spread out about Taiyi finally going back to the emotion severing cliff had definitely once again attracted attention but even Taiyi did not care about it. His moves were always under the watch of others and he knew it so once his plan was successful he would get rid of these rats first before dealing with the external threats. At this moment his eyes were still closed and his heart trial had truly begun. Feng Jiu at this momentvwas having a 'talk' with the dragon king of the east sea and the talk was definitely not pleasant and this was because Feng Jiu had once shaved the beard of the dragon king when the dragon king was asleep. But this was not the most disgraceful she ever did rather it was the fact that she had pulled out one of the whiskers of the dragon king. At that time she was still young and playful but she had totally pissed off the dragon king so their meeting wasn't so pleasant especially after the dragon king saw Tie Ling.
