War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Duan Ling Tian was confused as well. He had suddenly appeared at the gateway at the center of Scaling Cloud Lake. He remembered running into Sima Chun from the grade-seven Sima Clan. After killing Sima Chun, he had accumulated more than ten points in his Accumulative Point Jade, but he could not recall what happened from that moment onward. All he knew was he had suddenly been sent out of the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.

‘I remember after killing Sima Chun, I had 11 points in my Accumulative Point Jade…’ Duan Ling Tian instinctively checked his Accumulative Point Jade. ‘This… this…’ He was shocked to discover he had accumulated 286 points in his Accumulative Points Jade! Since he had started out with one point, this meant he had accumulated 285 points from other people at some point.

‘Out of the 285 points I accumulated, I can only account for ten points. Where did the remaining 275 points come from? Is there something wrong with my Accumulative Points Jade?’ No matter how hard Duan Ling Tian tried to search his memory, he still could not figure out where the points came from.

At this moment, the people around Duan Ling Tian were slowly regaining their senses. Similarly, they were surprised when they saw their points.

“Since when did I accumulate so many points? I remember only having 12 points.”

“Me too. I remember I had 11 points, but now, I have 23 points.”

“My points are the same. However, I feel like I’ve forgotten something…”

“Me too!”

Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, ‘I feel like I’ve forgotten something as well…’

At this moment, a gray figure began to look around his surroundings. His expression seemed a little panicked. He was none other than Ling Jue Yun, the genius sectless cultivator from the East Ming Nation!

“So that’s Ling Jue Yun?”

“He’s Ling Jue Yun, the genius sectless cultivator who ranks first in the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm? He’s really less than 100 years old!”

“He’s not even 100 years old, and he managed to rank first! Did he rely on his strength or is it just luck?”

“Whatever it is, it doesn’t change the fact that he’s the winner!”

At this moment, Ling Jue Yun had become the focus of everyone’s attention.

The group of people who had exited the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm looked at the scoreboard and was shocked to see Ling Jue Yun’s name at the top.

Meanwhile, Ling Jue Yun could not care less about the attention. His face was pale as he muttered to himself anxiously in a voice only audible to him, “Sister Huang’er… Where’s she? Did something happen to her while we were in the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm? I’m pretty sure I lost some of my memories. I can’t recall some things… How did I obtain 288 points? I remember the last time I checked, I only had 14 points. I don’t remember anything that happened next!”

Duan Ling Tian and the other participants were still flustered and confused when the voice of Zhangsun Xiong Qi, the elder from the Zhangsun Clan, rang in the air.

“There’s no need to panic! What you’re going through right now has happened to others in the past as well. This is due to a fortuitous encounter in the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Those who ran into this specific fortuitous encounter would have memories related to it erased. Your predecessors were also surprised when they found their points had increased and found they were in possession of new Spatial Rings, but they had no memories of obtaining the points or Spatial Rings. Moreover, some of them had even comprehended the law of time although they had no recollection of it!”

When they heard Zhangsun Xiong Qi’s last sentence, the eyes of the participants who went into the Celestial Lord Temple lit up.

The law of time?

The law of time was the most mysterious and profound law among the Four Supreme Laws. It would be a huge gain if they really did comprehend the law of time!

‘The law of time?!’ Pieces of information regarding the law of time suddenly appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s mind. Broken scenes of time slowing down, speeding up, and stopping appeared in his mind. ‘That’s the law of time?!’

At this moment, a childish voice suddenly rang in Duan Ling Tian’s mind, “Boy, some Formation in the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm has erased some of your memories. Let me recount them for you.” It was none other than the Chaos Divine Earth.

At this moment, the mellifluous voice of a woman rang in Duan Ling Tian’s mind, “Please do me a favor and inform Little Feng that I’m alright. He has also lost some of his memories. I’m sure he must be anxious to discover my sudden absence from his sea of consciousness.”

“Who are you?!” Duan Ling Tian was shocked to hear a strange woman’s voice in his mind. His expression changed drastically. Why was there another presence in his sea of consciousness? The sea of consciousness was where his soul resided, and it was constantly protected by the Profound Divine Metal. Nothing could get past the Profound Divine Metal!

“Boy, there’s no need to worry. After I’m done talking, you’ll know who she is… As for you, girl, don’t worry. He’ll speak to that lad, Ling Jue Yun, on your behalf after I fill him in about what happened,” the Chaos Divine Earth said reassuringly.

Duan Ling Tian sighed in relief when he heard the Chaos Divine Earth’s words.

Meanwhile, the woman had fallen silent after the Chaos Divine Earth reassured her.

“Boy, after you accumulated 11 points by killing Sima Chun, the Southern Heaven Celestial Lord spoke to you… Then, a guiding force brought you to a place called the Celestial Temple Lord. During the journey to the Celestial Lord Temple, you met that lad, Huang Jia Chao, and saved him…” The Chao Divine Earth began to recount what happened in detail after Duan Ling Tian lost his memory.

“So after killing Sima Chun, I also killed Dongfang Jin Lun and Li Yuan. Just like Sima Chun, two of them had also comprehended two profundities from a law. Meanwhile, Ling Jue Yun comes from the Divine Offering Land. Huang’er used to be the artifact soul of a prominent Devata artifact and has chosen me to be her master by becoming the artifact soul of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword. In exchange for that, I promised to avenge her former master as long as the person who killed her former master deserved it…” Although Duan Ling Tian learned about what happened, he felt a sense of detachment to the memories since he had forgotten about them. Even then, he did not doubt the veracity of the Chaos Divine Earth since he trusted it. Moreover, after he checked his Spatial Ring, the things in there corresponded with the Chaos Divine Earth’s words.

‘I even managed to claim the best place to comprehend the law of time in a place called Time Valley? Jia Chao is here with us because I helped him accumulate 10 points to enter the Celestial Lord Temple. He must have survived because he didn’t leave the safe room in the Celestial Lord Temple.’ With these thoughts in mind, Duan Ling Tian instinctively turned to look at Huang Jia Chao.

Coincidentally, Huang Jia Chao was making his way toward him. He asked in confusion, “Brother Duan, I remember you saved me. However, all I can remember is us having a conversation before you saved me. After that, I have no memories of anything else. Do you know what happened after that?”

Although Duan Ling Tian knew what happened, he did not intend to tell Huang Jia Chao. It was best nobody knew about it.

‘Ling Jue Yun…’ Duan Ling Tian shifted his eyes to Ling Jue Yun who had an unsightly expression on his face.

Ling Jue Yun looked deeply unhappy and distressed even though he was ranked first on the scoreboard.

‘He must’ve discovered Huang’er’s absence. I didn’t expect him to come from the Divine Offering Land and even possess Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons and Devata artifacts!’ Naturally, Duan Ling Tian only knew these things because of the Chaos Divine Earth’s reminder.
