Chapter 4485: Hostile Supreme Powerhouses
Duan Ling Tian did not dare to let down his guard even though he and Tan Xiu Teng had changed their appearances. As such, he decided to travel through the mountains and rivers.
“Young master, will we be traveling like this until we arrive at the Sacred Lightning Realm?” Tan Xiu Teng asked.
Although the journey was not difficult, it would be much more comfortable to travel on the flying ship. Tan Xiu Teng thought that Duan Ling Tian was being too cautious and that Duan Ling Tian was worrying excessively. In his opinion, the Zhong clan and the Leng clan should know better than to further provoke Duan Ling Tian since Duan Ling Tian was under the protection of a demi Saint.
“Hmm?”
All of a sudden, Duan Ling Tian sensed a faint throbbing from the Divine Tree of Life in his Little World. However, the Divine Tree of Life was still in deep slumber, and if there was anything, the World Cleansing Divine Water would alert him.
‘Perhaps, it’s due to my psychological stress,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.
After all, Duan Ling Tian had deceived the Zhong clan and the Leng clan, letting them believe that he had the protection of a demi Saint.
Duan Ling Tian brought Tan Xiu Teng and sped up. After passing a towering peak, he was shocked when he saw two figures hovering in the sky ahead of him. With this, he realized that the faint throbbing he sensed from the Divine Tree of Life earlier was a warning.
‘They’re supreme powerhouses!’
The two figures were fully covered in black cloaks, and it was impossible to see their appearances. They had also cast illusory techniques to hide their faces. However, Duan Ling Tian could sense the overbearing auras of supreme powerhouses from them, and their auras were slightly weaker than those of Han Wang and Situ Lei.
‘They must be worried that I’m under the protection of a demi Saint so they hid their appearances,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, ‘However, they’re still quite bold.. ‘
It did not take long for Duan Ling Tian to guess that these people had come with a plan in mind. He naturally knew that they must have come for the supreme treasures from the Zhong clan and the Leng clan.
At this time, Tan Xiu Teng, who was behind Duan Ling Tian, finally discovered the two figures in the distance, and his expression changed drastically.
Duan Ling Tian sent a Voice Transmission to Tan Xiu Teng before he glanced at the two figures with a hint of fear in his eyes and continued to move forward. However, he was quickly bounced back by an invisible wall of energy.
Left with no other choice, Duan Ling Tian looked at the two men in the sky and cupped his fists together as he asked, “Seniors, how can we help you?”
Duan Ling Tian’s voice was polite but firm and confident. He knew he could not show weakness in front of these supreme powerhouses since it would only make them think he was a pushover. When facing someone more powerful, he knew he had to remain confident to confuse them.
‘I wonder who sent them here… They’re quick! It’s only been a few days, but the supreme powerhouses are already here,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself. At the same time, he thought that perhaps the supreme powerhouses might not recognize him since he had disguised himself.
“You’re quite calm… In any case, stop playing games. It’s not normal for people to travel on foot here. Give us the supreme treasures, and we’ll spare your lives,” one of the black-clad men said indifferently and confidently. It seemed like he was certain that Duan Ling Tian was the person they were looking for.
“Senior, I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Duan Ling Tian said with a frown, “We’re traveling on foot because I want to feel the ground to better comprehend the law of earth.”
At the end of his words, Duan Ling Tian’s body flashed with a mustard light.
The other black-clad man laughed and said, “Do you think we’re fools? As an advanced Supreme God, how can your law of earth be so weak?”
Duan Ling Tian replied, “The law of earth isn’t my strongest law. My strongest law is the law of life!”
Following that, rich vital energy surged from Duan Ling Tian’s body and swept through the surroundings.
In just a moment, the plants grew even lusher, and the dead trees in the surroundings came back to life.
Currently, Duan Ling Tian’s law of life was only slightly weaker than his law of space. After all, he possessed a complete Divine Tree of Life in his Little World. According to the Divine Tree of Life, its former master was a supreme powerhouse who governed one of the Realms of Gods in the God Defying World. A person like that was undoubtedly among the strongest supreme powerhouses in the God Defying World. In the past, that supreme powerhouse had gained the Divine Tree of Life by accident and became a formidable supreme powerhouse later on because of it. Based on this, it could be seen that the Divine Tree of Life was not ordinary.
The two black-clad men were slightly surprised by the display of Duan Ling Tian’s law of life. They could not help but wonder if they had recognized the wrong person. According to the information they had gathered, their target was close to becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God and was an expert in the law of space. It was said that he was comparable to Linghu Yun Di, who was recognized as the strongest person below the realm of peerless top advanced Supreme Gods in the Peaceful Might Realm.
Finally, Liu Yi Fan scoffed and said coldly, “Even if you’re not the person we’re looking for, you’ll still be punished for wasting our precious time! You should feel honored that I’m sending you to the afterlife!”
The void shook violently as a terrifying energy swept toward Duan Ling Tian and Tan Xiu Teng. At the same time, the ground beneath their feet cracked, forcing them to fly up.
“Young master!” Tan Xiu Teng exclaimed in fear as despair shone in his eyes now that he was staring death in the eyes.
Duan Ling Tian’s expression turned grim immediately. He did not expect these two supreme powerhouses to be so cruel. He speculated that the two supreme powerhouses might be trying to test him and force him to reveal his strength before they killed him.
‘I didn’t expect I’d have to use Situ Lei’s Spirit Blood Essence so soon…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself with a wry smile.
Following that, a drop of blood that emitted a terrifying aura appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s hand as he mobilized his Divine Energy. When the drop of blood disappeared, the sky darkened, and a wave of terrifying energy swept through the surroundings.
Boom!
In just a blink of an eye, the terrifying energy crushed Liu Yi Fan’s attack, and a familiar figure appeared before Duan Ling Tian. It was none other than Situ Lei, the Heaven Bearing Sword Saint.
Since they parted ways in the Divine Sand Realm, Duan Ling Tian had never seen Situ Lei again until now. As soon as Situ Lei appeared, he could sense that Situ Lei’s cultivation had progressed tremendously since their last meeting. Situ Lei’s appearance remained the same, but his aura had become much more overbearing. With this, he knew that Situ Lei’s Sword Dao must have improved to the next level..
