EndlessFantasy Translation EndlessFantasy Translation

The high-ranking officials of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect laughed uproariously when they heard Duan Ling Tians words. Contempt brimmed in their eyes as they ridiculed Duan Ling Tian. Although Elder Hong and Elder Qi, the two Eight Trigrams Celestial Dukes from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, had remained silent, their disdain was palpable as well.

I wonder where did this puny Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial get the courage to utter such nonsense?

He must be crazy Hes only a mere Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, and yet, he has the audacity to spew death threats at us!

I wonder after three breaths time, which of us does he think hes capable of killing?

Well see in two more breaths

At the same time, the patrolling disciples discussed among themselves furtively. Most of them thought Duan Ling Tian had overestimated himself and would soon have to suffer the consequences of his arrogance.

So, hes the Chief Alchemist Celestial from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, Duan Ling Tian? The most famous person in the Six Southeastern Regions during the Alchemy Conference?

Thats right! Its him! Hes acknowledged as the best prominent Celestial Alchemist in the Six Southeastern Regions. Its also said that hes an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial even though he hasnt even reached the age of 100!

Its undeniable that hes truly remarkable, having achieved such feats in both alchemy and his cultivation base. However ultimately, hes still just an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. Why is he so confident?

He just threatened to kill the elders if they dont comply with his demand! Is he crazy?

Before his true identity was being exposed by the Blissful Sect, the elders were wary of him. However, after finding out that hes just a transcender, the elders are no longer wary!

Hes seeking death!

Isnt he aware that the Blissful Sect had thoroughly investigated and exposed his background and identity?

I bet hes unaware Otherwise, how could he be so arrogant?

At this moment, Duan Ling Tians voice rang in the air. Times up. Although he had not spoken loudly, his voice drowned out the commotion in his surroundings.

The high-ranking officials of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect looked at Duan Ling Tian smugly and disdainfully.

One of the elders stepped forward and said, Thats right. Times up. I wonder who among us would you kill?! He continued to say derisively, Among the elders from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, a Six Combination Celestial Duke like me is considered mediocre Why dont you try me?

Upon seeing this, Tie Tai He shook his head and muttered under his breath, A bunch of idiots. A wave of pity welled up in his heart as he looked at the people from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect. He felt sorry for their ignorance.

Duan Ling Tian looked at the elder who had spoken as his eyes flashed with killing intent. Honestly, its difficult to pick one Since you couldnt wait and volunteered yourself, Im more than happy to fulfill your wish!

As soon as Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, the Six Combination Celestial Duke suddenly clasped his hands around his neck. His face was flushed red, and his expression was twisted in agony.

The other elders from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect watched in shock as their expressions changed drastically.

Whats going on?

Suddenly

Boom!

A loud explosion rang in the air. The Six Combination Celestial Duke from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect had exploded into a mist of blood. Only a Spatial Ring could be seen in the midst of the blood fog. They watched as a wave of energy brought the Spatial Ring to Duan Ling Tian before he put the Spatial Ring away.

When the high-ranking officials of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect regained their senses, they inhaled sharply. Fear crept into their hearts and flashed in their eyes when they looked at Duan Ling Tian.

Meanwhile, Elder Hong and Elder Qi, the two Eight Trigrams Celestial Dukes from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, hurriedly surveyed their surroundings in search of hidden powerhouses. They were convinced this was the work of a hidden powerhouse. It would be easy for them to kill a Six Combinations Celestial Duke with their cultivation bases, but it was impossible for them not to leave any traces behind.

Only someone who has our sect leaders cultivation base, at least, is able to kill a Six Combination Celestial Duke without leaving any trace behind, right? Elder Hong asked Elder Qi through Voice Transmission. He was inwardly terrified.

Im afraid so Only a Nine Palaces Celestial Duke or someone stronger is able to kill a Six Combination Celestial Duke in such a manner We werent vigilant enough, thats why we didnt catch his movements! Elder Qi replied through Voice Transmission. In his opinion, as an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke, he would be able to capture the movements of a Nine Palaces Celestial Duke as long as he stayed alert. He was also convinced the hidden powerhouse who had killed their sects Six Combination Celestial Duke was a Nine Palaces Celestial Duke at most, only a rank higher than them.

Meanwhile, the patrolling disciples were stunned and in disbelief. The derision in their eyes had vanished as they looked at Duan Ling Tian again.

What happened?

D-dead The elders dead?

Elder Peng is a Six Combination Celestial Duke, right? He just exploded and died?

Did Duan Ling Tian kill him?

Soon enough, the patrolling disciples noticed Elder Hong, Elder Qi, and the other elders seemed to be looking around their surroundings, and realization dawned on them.

It must have been a sneak attack from a hidden powerhouse!

However, why is there such a powerhouse with Duan Ling Tian? Didnt the Blissful Sect prove Duan Ling Tian was lying about coming from a powerful clan in the central area?

Thats right But, how else would you explain what happened earlier?

At this moment, not only the patrolling disciples of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect were confused, but even the high-ranking officials were confused as well.

Despite the death of the Six Combinations Celestial Duke, the people from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect seemed to have forgotten Duan Ling Tians request for them to summon Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.

Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes; his patience was running low. Very well Another three breaths have passed.

Earlier, the people from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect had dismissed Duan Ling Tians death threats. However, after witnessing the death of an elder, a Six Combination Celestial Duke, they began to take him seriously. When they heard Duan Ling Tians voice again, it felt as though the Grim Reaper had whispered in their ears. Chills ran up their spines, and their faces turned as white as a sheet of paper.

Duan Ling Tian scoffed. He flickered out of sight, leaving only afterimages in his wake. In just a blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Elder Hong.

Upon seeing this, it finally dawned on the people of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect that there were no hidden powerhouses protecting Duan Ling Tian in the dark. It was all Duan Ling Tians doing all along!

Indeed, Duan Ling Tian had intentionally made a move that would make it obvious that there was no hidden powerhouse. He stood in front of Elder Hong and coldly said, An Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke?

Elder Hongs expression drastically changed. His eyes widened in fear as he looked at Duan Ling Tian.

Hes fast! Elder Qi who had just regained his senses was petrified when he saw Duan Ling Tian standing in front of Elder Hong.
