Chapter 3724: Linghu City

It was a pleasant surprise to Duan Ling Tian that he managed to comprehend the law of thunder. Although it did not add to his strength, it was undoubtedly beneficial to comprehend additional laws.

“Tl consume the six Heavenly Divine Pills and cultivate for a while. After that, I’ll decide between returning to the Hidden Fog Sect or going to the place where the Linghu clan is located…”

With just a flash, Duan Ling Tian appeared on the other side of the forest near the valley. Due to the commotion from the Heavenly Tribulation, he knew he could not continue staying in the valley.

Duan Ling Tian traveled for a day before he came to a stop near a cliff and dug a cave to cultivate in.

“Although the efficacy of the Heavenly Divine Pills will weaken after the third pil, it’s better than nothing…”

Duan Ling Tian wasted no time in swallowing all six of the Heavenly Divine Pills that he had obtained from Qin Wu’s Divine Sanctuary. Then, he began to cultivate again.

With Huangéer standing guard, he was completely focused on cultivating and absorbing the efficacy of the Heavenly Divine Pills. Now that he had become a rudimentary King of Gods, he wanted to become an intermediate King of Gods as soon as possible.

He completely lost track of time while he cultivated, and in just a blink of an eye, a month had passed.

In the 10,000 Devils Sect’s estate.

An elder hurried into the main hall and said, “Sect Leader, our spies in the Hidden Fog Sect sent news that Wu Feng has returned to the Hidden Fog Sect…”

Lan Qing, the Sect Leader of the 10,000 Devils Sect, frowned slightly upon hearing the report. “What about Duan Ling Tian?”

“There’s no news about him,” the elder said as he shook his head, “However, according to the news we received a few days ago, Duan Ling Tian is alive… Unless he died within these few days…”

The spies that the 10,000 Devils Sect placed in the Hidden Fog Sect had a hard time finding out about Duan Ling Tian’s status since very few people possessed his Soul Pearls in the Hidden Fog Sect. It was not until a few days ago that they managed to find out that Duan Ling Tian was alive.

“That’s unlikely…” Lan Qing shook his head.

Duan Ling Tian was a prodigy that appeared once in 10,000 years in the Hidden Fog Sect. Since he did not die when Chu Han died, how could he suddenly die within the past few days?

“So he didn’t return to the Hidden Fog Sect with Wu Feng…” Lan Qing muttered to himself before his eyes suddenly lit up. Then, he looked at the elder in front of him and said, “Tell our spies to confirm again that Duan Ling Tian is alive.”

“Understood.”

After the elder left, Lan Qing hurried over to Du Zhan’s cultivation ground. Naturally, he was looking for Kuang Tian Zheng, not Du Zhan.

‘As soon as Lan Qing arrived, Du Zhan appeared. It was Du Zhan’s cultivation ground, after all.

Du Zhan asked, “What’s the matter? Do you have news?”

“Junior uncle,” Lan Qing greeted Du Zhan before he nodded in response to Du Zhan’s question.

“Follow me to see my senior brother,” Du Zhan said without wasting time.

At this time, Kuang Tian Zheng was sitting quietly with his eyes closed in the tranquil courtyard. When he sensed Du Zhan and Lan Qing, he opened his eyes.

Du Zhan stood outside the courtyard and said, “Senior brother, Lan Qing has news.”

“Come in.”

After Du Zhan and Lan Qing walked in, Kuang Tian Zheng’s eyes flashed coldly as he looked at Lan Qing and asked, “Did those two return to the Hidden Fog Sect?”

Lan Qing could not help but shudder inwardly when he saw the cold look in Kuang Tian Zheng’s eyes even though he knew it was not aimed at him. Although they were both Lords of Gods, he was just a rudimentary Lord of Gods while Kuang Tian Zheng was an intermediate Lord of Gods. At this level,

even the smallest gap represented a huge difference in strengths. Hence, it was only natural that he felt pressured by Kuang Tian Zheng. After a moment, he said, “Wu Feng has returned to the Hidden Fog Sect.”

“Wu Feng? Just him?” Kuang Tian Zheng frowned.

Lan Qing nodded. “Yes. It’s just him. Duan Ling Tian has yet to return to the sect. It’s likely that he has something else to attend to. Although it’s not very likely, he might have died since the last time we checked his Soul Pearl.”

“Impossible…” Kuang Tian Zheng said, “In any case, confirm his status again.”

“Te already ordered my men to confirm his status,” Lan Qing said, “Uncle, are you going to take action against Wu Feng first or do you plan to wait until Duan Ling Tian returns to the Hidden Fog Sect?”

“Til wait until Duan Ling Tian returns before I act,” Kuang Tian Zheng said, “If I deal with Wu Feng now, it might frighten Duan Ling Tian. If Duan Ling Tian is dead, I’ll look for Wu Feng immediately. Otherwise, we’ll wait until Duan Ling Tian returns to the sect.”

After waiting for a few days, the spies in the Hidden Fog Sect sent news again, confirming that Duan Ling Tian was still alive.

“Since Duan Ling Tian is alive, we’ll continue to wait until he returns.

Duan Ling Tian was unaware that apart from the Hidden Fog Sect’s Long Xiao, an inner elder from the emperor-rank Flying Dragon Sect was also waiting to kill him.

In the cave that he had dug out, he cultivated quietly.

It had taken him longer to absorb the efficacy of the first three Heavenly Divine Pills. The remaining three were easier to absorb due to their weakened efficacy. The combined efficacy of the last three pills was less than one-tenth of the efficacy of any of the first three pills.

‘When he finally absorbed the efficacy of all the Heavenly Divine Pills, he opened his eyes and said with a wry smile, “If I had known the efficacy of the last three pills was so negligible, I wouldn’t have wasted my time consuming them.”

Even if he knew the efficacy of the three final pills would not be as strong as the first three pills, he did not expect the effect to be so insignificant.

Nonetheless, Duan Ling Tian quickly recovered from feeling regretful. After all, what had been done had been done. There was nothing he could do to change it.

Duan Ling Tian sighed. “After becoming a rudimentary King of Gods, the speed of my improvement has slowed down a lot. Although my cultivation has improved with the Heavenly Divine Pills, I’m not even at the halfway mark of becoming an intermediate King of Gods. At most, I’m one-third of the way

there. To think I only made this much progress after taking the Heavenly Divine Pills that are considered one of the three best pills to help the cultivation of Kings of Gods.”

After a while, he asked Huang’er, the artifact soul of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, “Huang’er, how long have I been in closed-door cultivation?”

“Three months and 21 days,” Huang’er replied.

“Nearly four months?!” Duan Ling Tian was taken aback. He did not expect to lose track of so much time. After all, with the Auspicious Pills and the Auspicious Divine Fruits, it took him less than a day to absorb their efficacy and for his strength to skyrocket.

To ordinary people, the progress he had made during these four months was not bad. However, to him, due to his previous experience, he found it slightly lacking.

“The cultivation path after one becomes a King of Gods is truly much more difficult than that of a god… No wonder people say that one would only be crossing the threshold to become a powerhouse after becoming a King of Gods…” Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself.

Duan Ling Tian did not intend to cultivate anymore. He thought about whether he should return to the Hidden Fog Sect or go to the place where the Linghu clan was located to try and meet Linghu Chu Yin first before returning to the sect.

When he thought that Linghu Chu Yin might be Ke’er, he could barely hold back his emotions. With this, he easily made up his mind and headed to the area in the vicinity of the Linghu clan’s estate.

‘The Linghu clan was a lord-rank force that was on par with the Hidden Fog Sect and the 10,000 Devils Sect.

With King Descending City in the center, the Hidden Fog Sect was to the east, the 10,000 Devils Sect was to the south, and the Linghu clan was to the north. As for the emperor-rank Flying Dragon Sect, it was located to the west of King Descending City.

The Flying Dragon Sect ruled over the Hidden Fog Sect, the 10,000 Devils Sect, and the Linghu clan. Hence, similar to the two sects, the Linghu clan had been sending their prodigies to the Flying Dragon Sect.

With this, the three lord-rank forces had somewhat of an influence in the Flying Dragon Sect.

Unlike the estates of the two sects that were hidden, the Linghu clan’s estate was located in a prosperous city that was named Linghu City.

The city was named as such since it was founded and built by the Linghu clan.

Linghu City was not smaller than King Descending City and was much bigger than Skywind City and the other cities that Duan Ling Tian had visited in the past.

With Duan Ling Tian’s current cultivation base, it only took him half a month to arrive at Linghu City.

“Linghu clan…”

As soon as he arrived, he wasted no time in finding out the location of the Linghu clan’s estate. After asking around, he found out that the Linghu clan’s estate was located in the east of the city. When he arrived at the estate, he discovered that the Linghu clan’s estate occupied more than one-fifth of the

entire Linghu City.
