War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens - Chapter 2372
Chapter 2372: You are Duan Ling Tian?
“What a formidable force!”
“So this is the strength of a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial? How strong!”
“Although we can’t see their movements, based on their attacks that rip holes in the void, it’s evident that they’re extremely strong!”
The group of people from the Fire Worship Sect who had retreated to the distance was astounded when they saw the cracks that appeared in the void kept appearing around Chen Yi Ru and Li Bing’s bodies.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The shockwave from the battle between Chen Yi Ru and Li Bing swept out and hit the nearby islands in the sky, laying waste to many mansions. Dust and debris swirled from the battle and clouded the sky.
…
“What’s happening?”
“It seems like there’s a battle going on!”
“These auras seem like they’re from Lord Sect Leader and the Guardians, right?”
The thunderous sound from Li Bing and Chen Yi Ru’s battle alerted many elders and disciples on the Saint Land. All of them instantly rose into the sky to see what was going on. However, when they rose to a certain level, they found that they were repelled by the airwaves. In the end, they could not see what was going on at all, they merely heard thunderous sounds.
“What’s happening?” Many of them asked.
The elders who were present since earlier recounted what had happened to them, causing an uproar.
“We have a Bodiless Celestial in our Fire Worship Sect?”
“Li Bing is a Guardian in the Fire Worship Sect 4,000 years ago, and he’s currently a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?”
The newly arrived elders and disciples of Fire Worship Sect were in shock. Naturally, none of them expected the Fire Worship Sect to have a Bodiless Celestial, let alone a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!
“4,000 years ago, Senior Chen Yi Ru was slightly stronger than our old ancestor. Currently, they’re both Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestials. I wonder who’s going to emerge victorious in this battle!” Many people were, naturally, curious about this.
“Based on the current situation, it seems like they’re evenly matched!”
“Just wait. There’ll definitely be a winner and a loser.”
“That’s right. We just have to wait.”
Although these people could not see the battle between Li Bing and Chen Yi Ru, it did not dampen their curiosity toward the result of the battle.
Among those present, only Duan Ling Tian could catch Li Bing and Chen Yi Ru’s movements. He thought to himself he watched them, ‘This Li Bing is not weak… They’ve exchanged more than a hundred blows but nobody has gained the upper hand yet!’
After a while, Chen Yi Ru cast two out of his three strongest saber techniques, the Peerless Saber and the World Annihilation Saber. He did not cast the World Cleansing Technique since the technique was more effective when used to deal with huge groups of people. Although the World Cleansing Saber was powerful, he risked injuring the people in the Fire Worship Sect. Since his master’s sister-in-law was the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect, he did not dare to indiscriminately kill the people of Fire Worship Sect.
‘He managed to withstand it!’ Duan Ling Tian was surprised when he saw Li Bing was able to hold his ground against Chen Yi Ru’s two saber techniques. After all, he knew Chen Yi Ru was stronger than the average Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestials. ‘Li Bing seems to be quite powerful as well.’
“Chen Yi Ru, we’ve already cast all our techniques and fought with all our strength, but we’re still evenly matched. I think it’s meaningless for us to continue this!” Li Bing said menacingly, “Although I don’t know why you’re helping Gan Ru Yan and Qing Huo, I’m warning you that it’s best if you leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, if I use my communication jade token to call Wang Chong over, you’ll definitely die if both of us join forces!”
Wang Chong!
The people from Fire Worship broke out in an uproar again when they heard Li Bing’s words. Based on their words, it was obvious they heard of Wang Chong as well.
“Wang Chong… W-wasn’t he also a Guardian of Fire Worship Sect 4,000 years ago?”
“Ancestor Wang Chong is still alive even though he failed his Celestial Ascension Tribulation?”
“If he’s still alive, it means he’s also a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!”
Meanwhile, Chen Yi Ru was astounded when he heard Li Bing’s words. He gasped. “Wang Chong? He’s a Bodiless Celestial as well?” He did not expect Wang Chong had become a Bodiless Celestial as well. Although Wang Chong was weaker than him and Li Bing, the gap in strength was not wide.
When Li Bing saw Chen Yi Ru’s expression, he thought Chen Yi Ru was frightened. He sneered as he said, “Are you finally afraid? If you’re afraid, leave my Fire Worship Sect now!”
However, Chen Yi Ru only remained silent.
At this time…
“Elementary Devouring Tactic!” Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Origin Energy that was mixed with Saint Origin surged out of his body quickly through his 99 Saint Veins as whirlpools began to appear around his body. A terrifying suction force that seemed capable of destroying heaven and earth began to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the Saint Land. It did not take long before he completely absorbed all of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the Fire Worship Sect. After he was done, he continued absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy from the Saint Stone reserve in the sect. In just a blink of an eye, his strength was raised to the limit. He only took a few breaths from when he cast the assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, to raise his strength to the limit.
‘The Saint Stone reserve in the Fire Worship Sect is truly amazing! Although I’ve absorbed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy there unreservedly, it’s not affected at all!’ Duan Ling Tian could clearly feel the condition of the Saint Stone reserve with his Divine Consciousness. Before anyone discovered the lack of Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the surroundings, he called out indifferently, “San Dao, retreat!”
“Yes, master,” Chen Yi Ru replied immediately.
Bang!
Chen Yi Ru attacked Li Bing one final time before he retreated to stand behind Duan Ling Tian deferentially.
‘Master?’ Li Bing looked at Chen Yi Ru incredulously. ‘Chen Yi Ru called this person master?’ He instantly raised his guard before he extended his Divine Consciousness toward Duan Ling Tian. He, naturally, thought that someone whom Chen Yi Ru acknowledged as master was much stronger. When he detected Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation base, he no longer paid any attention to Duan Ling Tian. Instead, he mocked Chen Yi Ru. “Chen Yi Ru, it seems like you’re going backward. You’re a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestials, but you actually acknowledged an Eminent Celestial as your master. Not only are you an embarrassment to yourself, but you’re an embarrassment to Bodiless Celestials everywhere!”
“Actually, I’ve been very curious about this as well. Why would a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial acknowledge an Eminent Celestial as his master?” Many elders and disciples in the Fire Worship Sect had been curious about this matter as well.
“Well, maybe it’s because Guardian Ling Tian’s the successor of Fog Rain Progeny and the Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect?”
“That seems to be the only explanation.”
Although the voices of the elders and disciples of Fire Worship were not loud, Li Bing, naturally, heard every single word. His eyes brightened immediately like the dazzling stars at night.
“The successor of the Fog Rain Progeny, the First Absolute of Seven Absolutes Sect, and the Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect?” He shifted his gaze away from Chen Yi Ru to Duan Ling Tian immediately. He asked in a hurried and excited tone, “Are… Are you Duan Ling Tian?”
“You’ve heard of me?” Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow.
When Li Bing heard this, he laughed uproariously. “How unexpected! It’s pointless to search high and low when one would usually find it when one least expected it!” He laughed for a long time before he stopped. He was extremely excited.
Li Bing had planned to return to the Fire Worship Sect to remove Gan Ru Yan from the position of Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect when he was given leave from the dragon clan. Although he wished to kill Duan Ling Tian, the Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect, the mission Di Chen had given him was much more important. He could only forget about it since searching for Duan Ling Tian would take too much time! However, who knew he would find Duan Ling Tian in the Fire Worship Sect? He could kill Duan Ling Tian now and avenge Tang Xuan. Moreover, he would be able to brag about this when he returned to the dragon clan. He could kill two birds with one stone! Now that Duan Ling Tian had presented himself to him, how could he not be delighted or excited?
