Chapter 4486: The Heaven Bearing Sword Saint In the Flesh
The skinny Situ Lei’s sword aura, which was extremely overbearing, crushed Liu Yi Fan’s attack easily. It was as though he was a god of sword.
‘A supreme powerhouse in the flesh!’
Liu Yi Fan and Lin Yu’s expressions changed. They had seen Duan Ling Tian using the Spirit Blood Essence earlier. They assumed that he had summoned a demi Saint and could not help shuddering when Situ Lei displayed his terrifying Sword Dao.
“Li…” Situ Lei called out.
However, before Situ Lei could call out the name ‘Li Feng’, Duan Ling Tian hastily said through Voice Transmission, “Senior Situ, please don’t reveal my name.”
Situ Lei reacted quickly. Then, he said, “Young man, I didn’t expect for us to meet again so soon…”
Liu Yi Fan and Lin Yu did not suspect anything since they did not know Duan Ling Tian’s real name and fake name.
“Senior, I had no choice,” Duan Ling Tian said to Situ Lei with a hint of helplessness in his voice, “I wouldn’t have used the Spirit Blood Essence you gave me if those two over there didn’t insist on killing me. I’m sorry for the trouble, senior.”
Meanwhile, Tan Xiu Teng was shocked to see Situ Lei. He would not have been as surprised if a demi Saint had shown up. After all, he was from the Divine
Sand Realm, and Situ Lei was famous in the Divine Sand Realm. Situ Lei, the Heaven Bearing Sword Saint, was among the most powerful supreme powerhouses in the Divine Sand Realm, and he had only seen Situ Lei once from afar.
Tan Xiu Teng thought to himself in shock, ‘Senior Situ has such a high regard for the young master that he actually gave the young master his Spirit Blood Essence?’
Tan Xiu Teng knew Duan Ling Tian was from the Myriad Worlds and had no acquaintances in the Outer Boundary. As such, he knew that Duan Ling Tian only established a connection with Situ Lei during the wedding in the Wang clan. In the past, he had followed Meng Yu Zheng to the Wang clan so he knew that Situ Lei was present in the Wang clan during the wedding. Needless to say he was not qualified to meet Situ Lei personally.
At this moment, Situ Lei shifted his gaze to Liu Yi Fan and Lin Yu before he said, “Gentlemen, I spent some time in the Peaceful Might Realm in my younger days. Although I’m not acquainted with many supreme powerhouses from there, I’ve heard many stories about them. May I ask who you are?”
Earlier, Duan Ling Tian had already informed Situ Lei that they were in the Peaceful Might Realm.
Situ Lei’s strength might only be in the third tier among the supreme powerhouses in the Peaceful Might Realm, but he was still relatively strong. Moreover, his strength had improved after he had raised his Sword Dao to another level. As such, not many third-tier supreme powerhouses in the Peaceful Might Realm were a match for him now.
“W-who are you?” Liu Yi Fan asked hoarsely. It was obvious that he was trying to hide his real voice. The burning fighting spirit in Situ Lei’s eyes gave rise to a foreboding feeling in his heart; he felt that Situ Lei was not simple.
Situ Lei replied confidently and honestly, “I’m Situ Lei, the Heaven Bearing
Sword Saint from the Divine Sand Realm.’
Upon hearing this, Liu Yi Fan and Lin Yu exchanged a glance and saw the relieved expressions on each other’s faces.
Situ Lei was among the top supreme powerhouses in the Divine Sand Realm, but he was considered ordinary in the Peaceful Might Realm, after all. Liu Yi Fang and Lin Yu might not be as strong as he was, but they would be on par with him if they joined forces.
“As it turns out you’re the Heaven Bearing Sword Saint,” Liu Yi Fan said courteously, “We just entered the realm of supreme powerhouses not long ago so I don’t think you’ve heard of us.”
After a moment, Liu Yi Fan asked, “May I ask about your relationship with this person?”
At this time, Liu Yi Fan and Lin Yu were sure that they had gotten the wrong person. After all, based on the information they gathered, their target had the protection of a demi Saint. Situ Lei might be stronger than them, but he was definitely not a demi saint; Situ Lei was still far from being a demi Saint.
‘He’s my direct descendant, and I have high hopes for him. Otherwise, why do you think I gave him my Spirit Blood Essence?’ Situ Lei said according to Duan Ling Tian’s wish. If it were up to him, he would say that Duan Ling Tian was his friend and mentor.
“He’s from the Divine Sand Realm?” Liu Yi Fan asked again.
“Yes.” Situ Lei nodded.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yi Fan said, “This is just a misunderstanding.” Then, he turned to Duan Ling Tian and said, “Forgive us if we’ve offended you. It’s our fault for mistaking you for someone else. This wouldn’t have happened if you’d told us that you’re the direct descendant of the Heaven Bearing Sword Saint.” Situ Lei scoffed coldly. “My direct descendant nearly died in your hands. Do you think I’ll let things go so easily? It’s best if you give me a proper explanation. Otherwise, I’ll teach you a lesson you’ll never forget.”
Situ Lei’s eyes burned with fighting spirits as his Divine Energy surged out, and he cast his Sword Dao again.
Dark clouds gathered in the sky as the wind blew and howled as the void shook violently. It was as though the end of the world had arrived.
The duo exchanged a glance before they mobilized their Divine Energies in unison.
Upon seeing this, Situ Lei’s expression suddenly changed.
In just a blink of an eye, Liu Yi Fan and Lin Yun vanished into thin air, looking as though they had teleported away.
‘That’s not the Teleportation Profundity… They synced the energies of the law of space and the law of time, creating an escape technique! They definitely didn’t just enter the realm of supreme powerhouses like they claimed earlier…’ Situ Lei thought to himself. The space had been disrupted so it was impossible for them to teleport away.
Most new supreme powerhouses were naturally among the weakest supreme powerhouses, and they were categorized as level-one supreme powerhouses.
As they grew stronger, they would go up in levels. Based on Liu Yi Fang and Lin Yu’s escape technique, even if they were weaker than him, Situ Lei could tell that they were stronger than most of their peers and were not as weak as they seemed. They were definitely not level-one supreme powerhouses and were level-two supreme powerhouses. They were so fast that he could not track them at all with his Divine Consciousness.
‘What an amazing technique! Even a powerful level-four supreme powerhouse won’t be able to vanish into thin air without leaving some traces behind. Their escape technique is almost comparable to that of a demi Saint,’ Situ Lei, a third-tier and also a level-three supreme powerhouse, thought to himself.
After a moment, Situ Lei turned to Duan Ling Tian and asked, “Li Feng, how did you offend them?”
Duan Ling Tian replied with a wry smile, “Senior, I really don’t know. They suddenly appeared and blocked our path while we were traveling through this place. They clearly mistook me for someone else and wanted to kill me. As such, I was forced to use the Spirit Blood Essence you gave me. Senior, thank you for saving our lives. I’ll never forget your kindness!”
Duan Ling Tian did not reveal the truth just to be safe. After all, even supreme powerhouses were tempted by the supreme treasures in his possession.
“How preposterous!” Situ Lei frowned. He did not doubt Duan Ling Tian’s words at all. In his opinion, Duan Ling Tian would not be so foolish as to provoke supreme powerhouses.
After a moment, Situ Lei asked, “Li Feng, where are you going? I’ll accompany you before I leave.”
Situ Lei was reluctant to leave immediately. He had a few questions regarding the Sword Dao he wanted to ask.
“Senior, it’s inappropriate for me to waste your precious time like that, ” Duan Ling Tian said politely even if it conflicted with his true thoughts.
“It’s nothing,” Situ Lei said as he shook his head, “Moreover, I came across a few minor issues with my Sword Dao recently. I’d like to ask for your advice.” Situ Lei looked slightly sheepish when he spoke.
Duan Ling Tian was naturally delighted upon hearing this. He replied with a smile, “Senior, I’m happy to help you! I’m going to the Sacred Lightning Realm, one of the Three Great Sacred Realms. I plan to head to the nearest city in the Sacred Lightning Realm first.’
At the same time, Tan Xiu Teng’s eyes shone with excitement. They would be much safer if Situ Lei were with them..
