Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded. In the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, apart from the weapons he obtained from those he killed, he had found two purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons nurtured by Celestial Lords.
“Alright.” Sun Liang Peng nodded. Then, he lifted his arm and waved his sword around. Brilliant sword rays that looked like golden ice flowers appeared immediately. The golden light intensified and spread into the surroundings soon after. It was clear he had just cast a technique.
“Apart from the Metal Elemental Profundity, I’m also using the law of metal’s offensive profundity…” Sun Liang Peng explained to Duan Ling Tian that this offensive profundity from the law of metal was a type of slashing technique. It was also the most powerful offensive profundity from the law of metal. “It’s known as the Piercing Profundity…”
As soon as Sun Liang Peng finished speaking, the sword rays that looked like ice flowers merged into one and shot toward Duan Ling Tian like an angry dragon at top speed.
Whoosh!
As it flew, it began to contract until it was as thin as a needle. Despite its size, it seemed capable of tearing the void. A buzzing sound rang in the air as it continued to make its way forward.
‘How fierce! So this is the Piercing Profundity, the law of metal’s strongest offensive profundity…’ Duan Ling Tian had learned about the law of metal’s profundities from the Profound Divine Metal so he knew the Piercing Profundity was the strongest offensive profundity from the law of earth even if Sun Liang Peng did not explain it to him.
After Sun Liang Peng struck, Duan Ling Tian began to move to avoid being hit. However, he discovered the attack had locked onto him. Moreover, his speed was not faster than Sun Liang Peng’s attack. It was impossible to avoid it. Since he could not avoid it, he decided to stop moving.
A black armor appeared on the surface of Duan Ling Tian’s skin immediately. Then, he quickly sent his Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted with the law of earth’s Fundamental Profundity, the Earth Elemental Profundity, into the armor. He did not waste any time and began to cast his Duke Grade Celestial Method, the Immobilization King Method, and his Duke Grade Divine Ability, the Eastern Purple Qi. He did not stop and continued to cast his heaven-grade assistive Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, as well. He did not hold back and unleashed all his defensive skills.
At the same time, the Chaos Divine Earth’s energy rolled out of Duan Ling Tian’s body and shot into the black armor. In just a blink of an eye, glittering crystals appeared on the black armor.
“Is this… Is this the Crystal Barrier Profundity?!” Upon seeing this, Sun Liang Peng’s eyes brightened. As the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, he was knowledgeable about all types of laws and profundities. The Crystal Barrier Profundity was one of the two profundities from the law of earth.
‘His assistive divine ability isn’t a Duke Grade Divine Ability… The force of the techniques he had cast is about the same as my attack… I wonder if he’d be able to resist my attack!’ Sun Liang Peng was looking forward to the outcome. At the same time, he directed the long golden needle to Duan Ling Tian who was covered in black armor.
At this moment, the Chaos Divine Earth’s childish voice rang in Duan Ling Tian’s mind. “Boy, use your Gravitational Space Profundity just in case he manages to see through the fake Crystal Barrier Profundity I created.”
“Alright.” Duan Ling Tian did not waste any time and cast the law of earth’s Gravitational Space Profundity.
After that, the long golden needle began to face a slight resistance. However, after a brief pause, it continued moving toward Duan Ling Tian.
‘The Gravitational Space Profundity?’ Sun Liang Peng’s eyes lit up again. ‘Although he has yet to completely master it, he has grasped the basics. It’s only a matter of time before he successfully masters it…”
‘How surprising! A peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial less than 100 years old managed to comprehend the law of earth’s Earth Elemental Profundity, the Crystal Barrier Profundity, and Gravitational Space Profundity… In the last hundreds of thousands of years in the regions under the Profound Nether Mansion’s control, we’ve not seen a monstrous genius such as him. The Simplicity Celestial Sect has truly found a treasure this time!’ At this moment, Sun Liang Peng was thoroughly convinced of Duan Ling Tian’s strength. With just a thought, he made the long golden needle disappear.
‘Huh?’ Duan Ling Tian was taken aback when he saw Sun Liang Peng withdrawing his attack all of a sudden.
“I have seen enough of your strength…” Sun Liang Peng said with a smile when he saw the confused expression on Duan Ling Tian’s face. Then, he turned to look at Zhang Guang Zheng who had also risen up into the air as well. “I appreciate your effort in leading the new disciples back to the sect, Senior Brother Zhang… I’ll take care of the rest from here…”
“Alright.” Zhang Guang Zheng understood Sun Liang Peng’s intention. After witnessing Duan Ling Tian’s talent and strength, Sun Liang Peng intended to personally initiate Duan Ling Tian into the sect so that Duan Ling Tian would feel a sense of belonging to the Simplicity Celestial Sect. What could be more welcoming than the sect leader personally tending to you?
After Zhang Guang Zheng left, Sun Liang Peng said with a smile, “Duan Ling Tian, let me bring you to the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s treasure vault… Initially, I planned to let you select two items from the treasure vault. However, after meeting you, I feel like we’ll get along well. Therefore, I’ve decided to let you select three items from the treasure vault.”
‘Sun Liang Peng… is really skilled at currying favors!’ Duan Ling Tian could, naturally, tell Sun Liang Peng wanted to get on his good side. In the end, he only replied, “Sect leader, I’ll surely take you up on your generous offer if I see something I like.”
Duan Ling Tian’s meaning was clear. He would only select the third item if he found anything to his liking. Otherwise, he would not pick a third item to avoid owing Sun Liang Peng a favor.
“Alright.” Despite the unchanging smile on Sun Liang Peng’s face, he was shocked inwardly. ‘Duan Ling Tian might be young, but he’s not a simple person… Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to stay calm under these circumstances! Unless he meets with an untimely death, he’ll surely grow to become a terrifying figure in the future… This isn’t only limited to the regions under the Profound Nether Mansion but includes the entire Southern Heaven Territory as well…’ He did not underestimate Duan Ling Tian at all even though Duan Ling Tian was young and relatively weak now.
…
There were numerous layers of Formations protecting the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s treasure vault. Even normal Celestial Lords would not be able to break in. For that reason, there was no guard guarding the treasure vault.
“It might seem easy to enter the treasure vault now. However, without me, even ordinary Celestial Lords wouldn’t be able to break in,” Sun Liang Peng said as they navigated through the complex underground paths.
Duan Ling Tian nodded. He could see how detailed the Formations were when Sun Liang Peng bypassed them.
Soon after, they arrived in front of an altar. It was not big, but there was a huge human statue on it.
The statue seemed to be modeled after a Taoist priest who was pointing a three-feet-long sword at the sky. Although it was just a statue, it emitted a piercing aura.
Sun Liang Peng bowed at the statue three times before he explained to Duan Ling Tian, “This is the statue of our Simplicity Celestial Sect’s founder, Han Fei Yu.”
Under Duan Ling Tian’s watchful eyes, Sun Liang Peng lifted his hand and began to draw a complex pattern in the air. The entire process lasted fifteen minutes.
After Sun Liang Peng was done, the pattern he had drawn with his Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted by his law of metal’s Fundamental Profundity, the Metal Elemental Profundity, shone with a golden light and seemed to come to life. Soon enough, it flew toward the statue on the altar.
When it shot into the status, two beams of golden light suddenly shot out from the statue’s eyes.
The sharp cry of a sword whistling in the air resounded immediately as the three-foot-long sword in the statue’s hand began to shoot out golden rays. The golden rays then merged with the two beams of lights from the statue’s eyes. Then, the golden light shot toward Duan Ling Tian and Sun Liang Peng.
“Relax, don’t resist it.” Sun Liang Peng reminded Duan Ling Tian.
As soon as Sun Liang Peng finished speaking, the beam of golden light shone on Duan Ling Tian. He felt as though he was being pulled in a specific direction. He had instinctively wanted to struggle but stopped himself when he recalled Sun Liang Peng’s words.
“Is this…Is this a Transportation Formation?” The pulling force grew stronger. Then, Duan Ling Tian’s vision turned black before he was lifted up. When his vision returned him, he discovered he was standing in a spacious mansion.
“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded. In the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, apart from the weapons he obtained from those he killed, he had found two purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons nurtured by Celestial Lords.
“Alright.” Sun Liang Peng nodded. Then, he lifted his arm and waved his sword around. Brilliant sword rays that looked like golden ice flowers appeared immediately. The golden light intensified and spread into the surroundings soon after. It was clear he had just cast a technique.
