War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

There were many types of Celestial Supreme Treasures. For example, the Jasper Celestial Sword on the second floor of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was an offensive-type Celestial Supreme Treasure. On the other hand, the Astonishing God Halberd on the third floor of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was an offensive and defensive-type of Celestial Supreme Treasure. The Universe Ruler on the fourth floor of Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was an assist-type Celestial Supreme Treasure that could be used to confuse one’s opponent with its unique divine ability, the Universal Teleportation.

With Duan Ling Tian’s current strength, he possessed only the barest of strength to use the Universe Ruler. For this reason, when he cast the Universal Teleportation, the effect was very weak.

Jiao Zhan, the Deputy Leader of the Black Crow Alliance, regained his senses after being stunned for a moment. Then, he easily broke out of the constraint of the divine ability, the Universal Teleportation, that Duan Ling Tian had cast using the Universe Ruler. Even so, the divine ability had affected Jiao Zhan.

“Oh, no!”

When Jiao Zhan regained his senses, he discovered Duan Ling Tian was already next to him. Moreover, a swift and piercing aura was heading toward him as well. He felt so threatened by the aura that he instantly cast all the defensive techniques he had in his arsenal in a rush.

Although the Universe Ruler Duan Ling Tian had used was only an assist-type Celestial Supreme Treasure, it was still a Celestial Supreme Treasure after all. The Saint Weapons in Mundane Realms could hardly compare to it.

Weng!

As the Universe Ruler in Duan Ling Tian’s hand slashed toward Jiao Zhan, the air seemed to still. All of the defensive techniques Jiao Zhan had cast seemed to have no effect at all when faced with the Universe Ruler.

Kacha!

A crisp sound rang in the air as Jiao Zhan was decapitated. His head, separated from his body, flew in the sky from the impact. Blood splattered everywhere, creating a dazzling sight.

At this moment, time seemed to stand still.

The sectless cultivators who managed to break out of the constraint of the Universal Teleportation regained their senses just in time to see Duan Ling Tian decapitating Jiao Zhan with the Universe Ruler. Moreover, it seemed as though decapitating Jiao Zhan was as easy as cutting tofu.

The sectless cultivators gasped in unison as they looked at Jiao Zhan who had been decapitated with a look of incredulity in their eyes.

They were not shocked by the bloody scene before them, but they were terrified by Duan Ling Tian’s strength!

Jiao Zhan, the Deputy Leader of the Black Crow Alliance, was ranked at the 566th place on the Supreme Saint Ranking after all. However, he was like an ant before Duan Ling Tian. Duan Ling Tian had killed him without much effort in less than a minute!

“How terrifying! The black-robed man’s strength is too terrifying!”

“No matter what, Jiao Zhan was a powerhouse who was ranked at the 566th place on the Supreme Saint Ranking. However, he could not even endure a blow from the black-robed man. Moreover, the black-robed man killed Jiao Zhan with just an ordinary ruler that doesn’t even seem to be a Saint Weapon!”

“It does seem like an ordinary ruler! Even after he infused his Saint Origin into it, I didn’t see the ruler emanating any energy.”

The Universe Ruler that Duan Ling Tian used was an assist-type Celestial Supreme Treasure after all. It was only natural that its attack was not as aggressive nor as showy as the Jasper Celestial Sword. For this reason, it seemed unassuming and ordinary, causing many people to think it was just an ordinary ruler.

This was all part of Duan Ling Tian’s plan. It would have been faster and easier to kill Jiao Zhan with the Jasper Celestial Sword. However, he had chosen to use the Universe Ruler so it would not reveal his identity as Duan Ling Tian.

Recently, most people had been talking about the black-robed man and his identity, Duan Ling Tian had become and less and less talked about. This was also because most people thought Duan Ling Tian had left. If people in Sin City knew Duan Ling Tian and the black-robed man were the same person, it would certainly cause an uproar in Sin City!

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian did not want his identity to be revealed. He planned to continue hiding his identity under the guise of the black-robed man and improve his Innate Spiritual Talent Root so he could achieve his goal as soon as possible! The most important thing to him at the moment was to devour as many Innate Spiritual Roots from wicked men to improve his Innate Spiritual Root!

“Elder Huo!”

Since Duan Ling Tian killed Jiao Zhan, he, naturally, did not forget to ask Elder Huo for help to devour Jiao Zhan’s Innate Spiritual Root!

Duan Ling Tian’s Sun Saint Energy was currently equivalent to the Saint Origin of a Saint Celestial Stage powerhouse. In fact, nobody would be able to guess that his Sun Saint Energy was not Saint Origin. After all, his cultivation base was only at the Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage. His cultivation base was still not at the Saint Celestial Stage so he still could not detect others’ Innate Spiritual Roots. For this reason, he needed Elder Huo’s help.

Currently, Duan Ling Tian had gotten quite skilled at devouring Innate Spiritual Roots. Before all of the sectless cultivators standing around him completely regained their senses, he had already devoured Jiao Zhan’s Innate Spiritual Root.

‘Jiao Zhan’s Innate Spiritual Root is pretty good. It’s probably the best among all the Innate Spiritual Roots I devoured recently. Just his Innate Spiritual alone is equivalent to all the Innate Spiritual Roots I devoured recently,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself after he devoured Jiao Zhan’s Innate Spiritual Root.

After that, Duan Ling Tian nonchalantly walked away under the watchful eyes of the others. People could only look at his disappearing back as Duan Ling Tian walked away.

Due to the loose and hooded long black robe that Duan Ling Tian wore, no one could tell if he was male or female, let alone being able to tell he was Duan Ling Tian who was rumored to possess two Super Saint Weapons!

Duan Ling Tian had hidden himself very well. If he did not speak, no one would be able to tell he was a man.

“It seems like Jiao Zhan was the only from the Black Crow Alliance who came!” One of the sectless cultivators said as he looked at Duan Ling Tian’s disappearing back.

Many people agreed with his words.

“I heard the Leader of the Black Crow Alliance has left Sin City recently. Even if Jiao Zhan didn’t come alone today, do you think the others from the Black Crow Alliance would dare to stand out under the circumstances?”

“That’s true. Everyone knows the strongest person in the Black Crow Alliance is the leader. Following that, Jiao Zhan was the strongest person. Someone who killed Jiao Zhan so easily is not someone the men from Black Crow Alliance can deal with.”

“In my opinion, even the Leader of the Black Crow Alliance is not a match for the black-robed man!”

The sectless cultivators discussed among themselves as the looked at Duan Ling Tian’s departing figure.

Duan Ling Tian was the only one who knew there was no one from the Black Crow Alliance who had come. Jiao Zhan did not bring along any help. Elder Huo had informed him of this. This way why he had revealed himself. Currently, he valued his life even more so than he did in the past.

At this moment, apart from rescuing Ke’er and their daughter from the Fire Worship Sect, he wanted to improve his strength as quickly as possible so he could return to the Lower Province and reunite with his family and friends. At present time, he knew nothing about what was happening in the Lower Province. For this reason, he could not help but worry when he thought about his family and friends in the Lower Province.

When word about the black-robed man had killed Jiao Zhan, the Deputy Leader of the Black Crow Alliance, spread, it, naturally, caused an uproar in Sin City. Since Duan Ling Tian had concealed himself well, no one made the connection that he was the black-robed man.

Apart from that, Duan Ling Tian had asked for help from Elder Huo to figure out a way to devour Innate Spiritual Roots without using the Jasper Celestial Swords and his other techniques that could expose his identity.

Eventually, Elder Huo asked him to use the Universe Ruler on the fourth floor of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. The Universe Ruler had the divine ability, the Universal Teleportation.

Although Duan Ling Tian still could not use the Universe Ruler to its full potential with his current strength, it was still effective when used against opponents who had let down their guards.

Duan Ling Tian relied on the Universal Teleportation to conceal his Sun Saint Energy. When his Sun Saint Energy was enhanced by the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, he did have to worry about people recognizing him since the Universal Teleportation helped him conceal the Elementary Devouring Tactic. This way, his identity would not be exposed.

Duan Ling Tian really had gone all out to play the character of a vigilante, the black-robed man!

‘With my current strength, there’s no risk of people finding out who I am unless it’s those elites at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage or stronger!’ Duan Ling Tian was extremely confident about this.

Duan Ling Tian continued to focus on improving his Innate Spiritual Root in Sin City.

Meanwhile, as time passed, news of Duan Ling Tian being the Young Mansion Master of the Azure Cloud Mansion in the Lower Province, him killing Xie Zong, the son of the Golden Lion King, one of the Four Great Karmapas in Black Kshetra Sect, and him possessing two Super Saint Weapons finally arrived in the Fire Worship Sect.

For a time, the entire Fire Worship Sect was in an uproar!

“My goodness! Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian is actually the Young Mansion Master of the Azure Cloud Mansion in the Lower Province? He’s the lucky guy that possesses the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet?”

“Amazing! I didn’t expect Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian to be that Duan Ling Tian!”

“Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian is amazing! He actually killed the son of the Golden Lion King from Black Kshetra Sect and regained the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet!”

“Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian actually owns another Super Saint Weapon, the Traceless Sword?”
