War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

After Duan Ling Tian’s voice fell, he flew into the Given Alliance base, disappearing from sight.

The crowd exchanged a look before leaving one after another.

“Let’s go. The show’s over now that the Given Alliance no longer exists.”

“I didn’t expect such a strong and famous alliance in the Nine Serenities Battlefield would meet with such an end. Moreover, it took only one person to disband the Given Alliance…”

“That’s right. Since Duan Ling Tian intends to turn the Given Alliance base into his cultivation ground, how could the alliance members stay?”

“From this day onward, there won’t be anyone in the Nine Serenities Battlefield and the Devata Realms who won’t be aware of the highly talented true disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven.”

News of this incident spread like a wildfire in the Nine Serenities Battlefield. There was no one who did not hear about what had happened.

Everyone knew that Duan Ling Tian, the only true disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, possessed a prominent divine artifact with an artifact soul and that he had easily killed three veteran Nine Star Gods of War, Yue Chao Qun; Swordsman Chu; and Ji Ying, soon after he became a Nine Star God of War.

“How unexpected! The only true disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven is truly a peerless genius. Moreover, he possesses a prominent artifact with an artifact soul! I wonder if his master gave him the prominent divine artifact?”

“That’s possible. After all, everyone knew Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang attained godhood in the Asura Hell due to a fortuitous encounter. He must have come across many treasures as well. It’s likely that he had given the prominent divine artifact to his only true disciple.”

“Duan Ling Tian is really lucky to have a master like Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang.”

“If you have Duan Ling Tian’s innate talent and comprehension skills, Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang might accept you as true disciples as well.”

When news of Duan Ling Tian spread, it naturally included his prominent divine artifact. After all, such a treasure was too precious.

…

While the Nine Serenities Battlefield was in an uproar over this matter, a group of Eight Star Gods of War from the Given Alliance led the members to meet Duan Ling Tian in a valley in the base. These Eight Star Gods of War were the former Guardians of the now-defunct Given Alliance.

“Lord Duan Ling Tian, we’re willing to accept you as our leader. If you dislike the name of the alliance, you can switch it. We just want to serve you,” one of the Eight Star Gods of War said respectfully.

These people had been shocked by Duan Ling Tian’s strength, and they felt they would be incredibly lucky to be able to serve such a person. After all, it meant they would be under his protection. With Duan Ling Tian, they would become the ultimate alliance in the Nine Serenities Battlefield. Hence, they took the risk and tried to persuade Duan Ling Tian to take over the Given Alliance.

“You have 10 hours left to evacuate this place,” Duan Ling Tian said indifferently. After that, he no longer responded no matter how hard the former Guardians of the Given Alliance tried to persuade him.

Eventually, they left, greatly disappointed now that their hopes were crushed. It was obvious Duan Ling Tian had no intention of starting an alliance.

With that, the formerly lively Given Alliance base turned desolate. No one dared to linger and defy Duan Ling Tian’s words.

…

In the independent realm that housed the main Title Temple.

An unexpected guest appeared in the Title Temple today. It was none other than Ji You, the Heavenly Emperor of the Given Heaven. Ji Ying’s death was like rubbing salt on his wounds. He was so furious that he had almost destroyed his cultivation ground. His terrifying energy shook the entire Heavenly Palace of the Given Heaven, and everyone could feel his anger from afar. It was only after he calmed down that he quickly left for the main Title Temple to look for Wu Hong Qing, the Temple Master of the Title Temple.

“Temple Master Wu, your Nine Star God of War was killed in such a manner. Are you really going to bear the humiliation?”

Wu Hong Qing was not surprised by Ji You’s sudden visit. Upon hearing Ji You’s words, he shook his head and said, “What else can I do? Duan Ling Tian has become too strong. There’s nothing we can do if he remains in the Nine Serenities Battlefield.”

In fact, Wu Hong Qing had been thoroughly shocked when he received news about Duan Ling Tian becoming a Nine Star God of War. He was further shocked when he learned that Duan Ling Tian was also in the possession of a prominent divine artifact with an artifact soul. Not even the Title Temple possessed a prominent divine artifact with an artifact soul, after all.

Following that, frustration welled up in Wu Hong Qing’s heart when he learned that Mi Xuan was absent during the incident. After all, Mi Xuan was stronger than Yue Chao Qun. He should have been there to help the others. He could not help but wonder if it was a coincidence that Mi Xuan was absent or if Mi Xuan had run away after discovering how strong Duan Ling Tian had grown.

Ji You’s eyes glinted coldly as he said, “He must have people he cares about outside of the Nine Serenities Battlefield. We can use them to force him to leave the Nine Serenities Battlefield.”

“That’s unnecessary,” Wu Hong said as he raised an eyebrow and shook his head, “It’s best not to resort to this method unless it’s absolutely necessary. We’ll tarnish our reputation if we do such a thing. Moreover, Duan Ling Tian isn’t alone. He has the protection of Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang of the Solitary Destructive Heaven.”

“Feng Qing Yang?” Ji You frowned. His eyes flashed coldly as he said, “I almost forgot about him. I’ll demand an explanation from him regarding this matter!”

“You’re going to demand an explanation from him?” Wu Hong Qing scoffed upon hearing Ji You’s words. He said disdainfully, “Heavenly Emperor Ji, are you unaware that Feng Qing Yang is a rudimentary King of God like me? Do you think you, an ordinary advanced god, is a match for him?”

Ji You was shocked by these words. He exclaimed in disbelief, “A rudimentary King of Gods? H-how’s that possible? Didn’t he just attain godhood recently?”

Wu Hong Qing sneered. “Use your brain. Even his true disciple possesses a prominent divine artifact with an artifact soul. Do you think it’s impossible for him to be a rudimentary King of Gods?”

Ji You, who had trouble accepting the reality, asked again, “H-he… He’s really a rudimentary King of Gods now?”

“I personally witnessed his strength. Do you think I’d be wrong?” Wu Hong Qing retorted.

Ji You’s expression soon turned unsightly. He could afford to provoke a rudimentary King of Gods. His heart overflowed with resentment and unwillingness when he thought about how Feng Qing Yang had surpassed him despite being much younger than him. He knew his talent could not compare to Feng Qing Yang at all.

Wu Hong Qing said in a gloomy tone, “Let’s just wait for Duan Ling Tian to come out. There’s nothing we can do to him in the Nine Serenities Battlefield. He’s invincible there.”

“How’s that possible?” Ji You, who hated Duan Ling Tian to the bones, could not accept this fact. He was highly displeased by what he perceived as Wu Hong Qing’s praising Duan Ling Tian. He continued to say, “There are so many people in the Nine Serenities Battlefield who possess Divine Elements with high forms. They might be able to defeat Duan Ling Tian. After all, the laws they comprehended are much stronger as well with the help from the Divine Elements. Based on my knowledge, the Five Divine Elements aren’t inferior to a prominent divine artifact with an artifact soul…”

Wu Hong Qing looked at Ji You as though he was looking at a fool. However, he hurriedly corrected his expression to avoid discovery.

After Duan Ling Tian’s Five Divine Elements helped him to escape, they would take a long time to recuperate before they would be able to help Duan Ling Tian again. However, even if his Five Divine Elements had yet to fully recover strength, they would not sit back and do nothing if Duan Ling Tian was attacked by someone who possessed a Divine Element. How could a single or even two Divine Elements be a match for all Five Divine Elements? Hence, Wu Hong Qing knew it was futile to follow Ji You’s suggestion.

Naturally, Wu Hong Qing did not reveal his thoughts. After all, he did not want Ji You to know that Duan Ling Tian possessed all of the Five Divine Elements..
