EndlessFantasy Translation EndlessFantasy Translation

The Spatial Ring of He Shan, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, hovered in the air in front of Duan Ling Tian and the members of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, but no one made a move to claim the ring. Eventually, Duan Ling Tian broke the silence first as he said, Master Situ, please hold onto the Old Ancestors Spatial Ring Hand it to the sect leader after we return to the Tai Yi Celestial Sects estate.

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tians words, Situ Ming, with a heavy heart, stepped forward and took He Shans Spatial Ring before he put it away.

Although Duan Ling Tian was not particularly close to He Shan, as the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, he could not help but feel angry when he saw He Shan being killed. Nevertheless, there was nothing he or the sect could do for now since their strength was limited and the situation was not in favor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.

It seems like Im right. Theres more than meets the eyes Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he looked at the injured young man from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect. The whistleblower was the cause of Bai Wu Ji, the Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, flying into a violent rage, and subsequently, killing He Shan. He had been keeping an eye on the young man since he felt something was amiss. At this moment, he saw a flash of guilt on the young mans face when the young man looked at the spot where Bai Wu Ji had killed He Shan. If He Shan had truly killed Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, what was there for the young man to feel guilty about? It seems like Bai Yu Xuans death has nothing to do with the Old Ancestor. This young man must know the truth!

Up until now, it did not cross Duan Ling Tians mind that Bai Yu Xuan might be alive. After all, he was unaware that Bai Yu Xuans Soul Pearl had lost its energy. He was only certain that He Shan had nothing to do with Bai Yu Xuans death. Alas, he had no evidence so he knew no one would believe him even if he spoke up. Moreover, how could the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect believe an outsider over their sects disciple?

Old Ancestor, although weve only known each other for a short time, and you only protected me because of my value to the sect, Ill do my best to prove your innocence, Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he gazed at the spot where He Shan was killed.

After two lifetimes, Duan Ling Tian had witnessed too many deaths, especially after he had ascended to this Devata Realm. For this reason, he had grown slightly numb to the deaths of his acquaintances. However, regardless of He Shans motives, there was no doubt that He Shan had treated him well. Moreover, as the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, he felt he had to do something for the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. He would wait until he was powerful enough before he investigated the matter and revealed the truth to prove He Shans innocence.

He Shans death had caused a huge commotion and huge destruction to the Alchemy Square, but it did not stop the Alchemy Conference from commencing as it should. In the Six Southeastern Regions, the death of an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke was insufficient to stop a prestigious event such as the Alchemy Conference from taking place.

It did not take long before the prominent Celestial Alchemists from the top sects began to compete and bet.

Since the stone platform was damaged during the battle, the members of the Alliance of Celestial Master had lost their seats. For this reason, they made their rounds among the prominent Celestial Alchemists to make sure there was no foul play.

Meanwhile, now that He Shan had died, Duan Ling Tian could sense the predatory and greedy gazes of some of the sectless cultivators on him. These sectless cultivators were among the strongest sectless cultivators in the Six Southeastern Regions. He knew these people coveted the Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Ability that he had won from the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect and the Thousand Leaves Sect respectively. When He Shan was alive, these people, naturally, did not dare to have any covetous thoughts. Now that He Shan died, they had begun to show their true colors. However, he did not pay them any mind. He knew they would not dare to recklessly attack him even though He Shan had died. After all, as one of the top sects in the Six Southeastern Regions, the Tai Yi Celestial Sect was still a force to be reckoned with. Unless they were capable of killing the entire party from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, the sectless cultivators would not act! He thought to himself, If anything, we should be wary of the top sects from the Six Southeastern Regions. However, based on their actions at the moment, it seems like they wont dare to rob me. Theres no need for me to use the Communication Celestial Talisman for now.

Before they left the estate of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, Bai Ping, the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, had given Duan Ling Tian a few Communication Celestial Talismans. These were not just any ordinary Communication Celestial Talismans, they were Communication Celestial Talismans inscribed by Celestial Kings! These talismans were left as protection by powerhouses from the sect who had become Celestial Kings before they left the Six Southeastern Regions for the central area. With these Communication Celestial Talismans, one would be able to send a message in a matter of seconds. The sectless cultivators would not be bothered about the Communication Celestial Talismans. After all, it would be difficult to identify or locate them since they were sectless. They would only be worried about Shadow Void Escaping Talismans inscribed by Celestial Kings since the talismans would allow one to escape. If their target survived, it would be easy for the sectless cultivators to be identified through means such as the Floating Image Pearls. As one of the top sects in the Wasteland, it would be easy for the Tai Yi Celestial Sect to hunt them down as long as they knew what the sectless cultivators looked like. The only way the sectless cultivators could escape the sects grasp was to escape to the central area. However, these sectless cultivators who coveted Duan Ling Tians Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Ability were mediocre at best, and these included the Celestial Dukes. It would be difficult for them to leave the borderlands for the central area. Therefore, Duan Ling Tian was not worried about them at all.

At this moment, a loud and energetic voice rang in the air. Master Duan!

Duan Ling Tian instinctively turned to look at the source of the voice. He saw a middle-aged man walking toward him. The middle-aged man wore the earth Celestial Masters uniform, similar to the one Duan Ling Tian was wearing. These were uniforms given by the Alliance of Celestial Masters to prominent Celestial Alchemists.

Duan Ling Tian was still thinking about where he had seen the middle-aged man before since he found the middle-aged man rather familiar when Situ Mings voice rang in his ears. Its Xiao Gang Yu, the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Blissful Sect. Upon hearing Situ Mings words, he recalled he had seen the middle-aged man standing behind Li An, the Old Ancestor of the Blissful Sect, earlier.

Why is he coming here? Yang Chongs expression turned grim. He was certain that Xiao Gang Yu had come with ill intentions.

Situ Ming said to Duan Ling Tian through Voice Transmission, Master Duan, Xiao Gang Yu is highly skilled in alchemy, and hes able to refine the prominent Celestial Pill, the Overarching Heaven Pill, as well.

When Duan Ling Tian regained his senses, Xiao Gang Yu was only a few feet away from him. He asked lightly, Whats the matter?

Before Xiao Gang Yu could reply, someone scoffed coldly and said, The Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Blissful Sect, Master Xiao, would like to compete with you, the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect! Soon after, another figure walked toward Duan Ling Tian.
