War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

‘With my current strength, I’m afraid that even a Super Saint Weapon from the mundane realm is no longer useful to me…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he looked at the three-foot-long sword that was formed by his Celestial Origin Energy and mixed with Saint Origin, ‘What would be useful to me are Celestial Supreme Treasures like the Jasper Celestial Sword and the Universe Ruler… Unfortunately, both of them have been destroyed along with Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and Elder Huo!’ He felt his heart ache when he thought about the Celestial Supreme Treasures he used to possess. His eyes were filled with sadness when he thought about Elder Huo. Beneath the sadness, his anger that seemed capable of destroying everything could be seen as well. He thought to himself as his eyes turned cold, ‘Don’t worry, Elder Huo. I’m about to return to the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. When I return, I’ll go to the Fire Worship Sect and kill Tang Xuan to avenge you!’

After a moment…

Swoosh!

The sound of sword whistling reverberated in the air as the three-foot-long sword shot out of Duan Ling Tian’s hand and turned into a sword ray. He was like a Sword Celestial when he wielded the sword with the Sword Wielding Art.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

When the sword ray pierced the void, a strange buzzing noise began to ring in the air.

Rrrippp!

Soon after, the sound of something tearing sounded and a terrifying crack appeared in the sword ray’s wake, like a paper being torn.

‘I can actually tear a hole in the space so easily?’ Unlike the previous cracks that were completely dark, he could see glimpses of a green bamboo forest through this crack. He was certain the bamboo forest was located in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land.

Swoosh!

When Duan Ling Tian saw the green bamboo forest through the crack, he waved his hand and brought Ke’er, Duan Si Ling, and Gan Ru Yan with him as he flew unhesitatingly into the crack. When he entered the crack with the three ladies in tow, he felt a giddy sensation before he arrived on the other side. As soon as he arrived, he could clearly feel the changes in his surroundings. He could, notably, feel the difference in the richness of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy. The Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in this common bamboo forest was much richer compared to when he was in the Human-Devil Saint City!

‘Upper Province… I’m back!’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself. He knew he was back in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land when he sensed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in his surroundings.

“Wah! The Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy is so rich here… Daddy! We’ve returned to the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, haven’t we?” Duan Si Ling asked as she looked at Duan Ling Tian curiously. She was equally as excited as him.

“Yes, we’ve returned to the Upper Province.” Duan Ling Tian smiled fondly as he patted Duan Si Ling’s head.

“Daddy, you’re so amazing! You can tear a hole in the void just with a flick of your sword and bring us back to the Upper Province,” Duan Si Ling said as she gazed at Duan Ling Tian in admiration.

“With Si Ling’s innate talent, you’ll be as amazing in the future.” Duan Ling Tian smiled.

“Really?” Duan Si Ling became even more excited when she heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. Her eyes shone brightly as though she could already envision herself tearing a hole in the void and returning to the Lower Province. She was completely lost in her imagination.

Gan Ru Yan looked at Duan Ling Tian in amazement and disbelief as she asked, “H-how did you become so strong?” She had seen Duan Ling Tian becoming an Eminent Celestial and casting his fearsome Divine Ability. She believed the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan would not have survived if he did not escape. However, she was uncertain and began to lose confidence when the patriarch’s master, a Three Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, had appeared. The result was completely out of her expectation. In just a short time, he managed to kill Liao Nai Jiang, the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan’s master and a Third Tribulation Bodiless Celestial! She found the rise in his strength difficult to comprehend.

“My assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, is extraordinary in the Devata Realm, let alone the mundane realm!” Duan Ling Tian replied.

Although Gan Ru Yan had suspected this, she only fully believed it after she heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. She asked again, “But… didn’t you just break through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage Ninth Form not long ago? How did you immediately attract the Celestial Ascension Tribulation?” This question had been troubling her. After all, she knew Duan Ling Tian had only broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage not too long ago. It had confounded her when she saw him attracting the Celestial Ascension Tribulation!

“To be precise, I attracted the Celestial Ascension Tribulation the day I broke through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!”

When Ke’er heard Gan Ru Yan’s question, she turned to look at him as well.

Duan Ling Tian sighed.

His reply, naturally, shocked Gan Ru Yan. “What?”

Even Ke’er was stunned as well!

Duan Ling Tian actually attracted the Celestial Ascension Tribulation the same day he broke through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage?

When Gan Ru Yan regained her senses, she exclaimed, “H-how’s this possible?” After a while, she mumbled to herself, ‘Based on my knowledge, when one breaks through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, one would have to completely comprehend heaven and earth before one can attract the Celestial Ascension Tribulation. Even if he has help from others to attract the tribulation, he must completely comprehend heaven and earth. How’s it possible for someone to completely comprehend heaven and earth as soon as they break through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage?” She looked at Duan Ling Tian with a bewildered expression on her face. “You…”

Although Gan Ru Yan’s voice was not loud, Duan Ling Tian heard her words. “It’s as you’ve said. Even I am still surprised by it. The reason I could attract the Celestial Ascension Tribulation the same day I broke through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage Ninth is due to the Sun Force. The Sun Force had acted strangely at that time. There’s no doubt I wouldn’t be able to completely comprehend heaven and earth in just half a day if it was not for the Sun Force.” He still felt as though he was dreaming when he thought about what had happened that day.

“The Sun Force? You completely comprehended heaven and earth in just half a day?” It was not only Gan Ru Yan, but even Ke’er and Duan Si Ling had a stunned expression on their faces.

“The Sun Force…” Duan Ling Tian began to explain the origin of the Sun Force to Ke’er, Duan Si Ling, and Gan Ru Yan and what happened to him that day. He told them about what happened when he was facing the Celestial Ascension Tribulation.

“So that’s what happened!”

The three ladies finally understood what happened. However, a shocked and amazed expression could still be seen on their faces. What had happened to Duan Ling Tian had changed their perception immediately.

…

Meanwhile, the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan, Yang Zhen Xing, left the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land and returned to the Land of Exile. He had returned for only one reason. The forefather of the Human-Devil clan and a few Bodiless Celestials were still in the Land of Exile. They had yet to move to the Lower Province of Dao Martial Saint Land that they had successfully conquered.

Swoosh!

As soon as Yang Zhen Xing arrived at the Land of Exile, he flew in a direction as fast as he could. As an Eminent Celestial, his speed was, naturally, very fast.

After about half a day, Yang Zhen Xing finally stopped traveling. He arrived before an ancient altar and bowed reverently. “Forefather!”
