War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Apart from Madam Snake, there were certainly more powerhouses at or above the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who entered the pseudo realm! Meng Hao and the other two powerhouses at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage were certain of this.

After all, the remaining people who passed the first series of tests were divided into three groups. In theory, the combined strength of each group should be about the same.

After Zheng Dong Ji’s laughter died down, he said, “Given that all of you have passed the third test… I’ll give you an additional 15 minutes before the Killing Formation in this place is activated! After that, similar to the other two groups, all of you will be reduced to dust! Enjoy your final 15 minutes, greedy humans!”

After that, Zheng Dong Ji stopped talking completely.

Meng Hao and the others who recovered from the shock, naturally, felt anxious.

15 minutes!

They only had 15 minutes left!

“How? What should we do now?!

“15 minutes… We have 15 minutes before we die! I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die!!”

“Why are you yelling?! You’re not the only one who doesn’t want to die!”

After learning they would all die in 15 minutes, many people’s expressions changed as their bodies trembled in fear. They could not calm down.

Death was, indeed, fearsome! It would have been better if they were instantly killed instead of being given time. Currently, they had 15 minutes to stew in fear as they waited for death to come for them.

Even the three powerhouses at the Seventh Form Saint Celestial Stage, including Meng Hao, had a grim expression on their faces.

Even the youngest among them, Meng Hao, had spent a few hundred years to achieve what he had today. For this reason, they valued their lives more than anything else! After all, it was not easy to get to where they were in life!

They were already granted an eternity to live, but they had entered this place out of greed. Now, they would all die here.

After a moment of silence, Meng Hao said, “No! I won’t resign myself to this!” He growled as he flew about to find a way out.

The other two powerhouses at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage saw Meng Hao and followed suit. Upon seeing this, the others put aside their fear and began to search for a way out as well!

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian learned about what happened from Elder Huo while Meng Hao and the others were searching for a way out of the restrictive space.

Although Elder Huo was still confined to the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, he had regained some of his strength and was comparable to an ordinary Celestial. For this reason, his Divine Consciousness had become stronger as well, and it was not difficult for him to move his Divine Consciousness around the pseudo realm and learn about what happened. Every one of Zheng Dong Ji’s words was heard by Elder Huo before he disclosed what had happened to Duan Ling Tian.

“The Devil Clans? This pseudo realm is created by three Devils?!” Duan Ling Tian was extremely shocked when he heard about this. Not even in his wildest dreams did he expect this.

The treasure vault everyone suspected was left behind by a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage was nothing but a trap created by three Devils?

“Saint Province Realm? That’s what the Devils call the Dao Martial Saint Land? The reason the entrance to this pseudo realm appeared is due to the Formations being activated? The Formation in the Upper Province is only activated because the Formation in the Lower Province has detected the pure Devil Qi from the Devils? The invasion of the Devil Clans? The dawning of a new Human-Devil Era? The first place the Devil Clans would invade is the Lower Province?”

Various expressions flitted across Duan Ling Tian’s face when he heard Elder Huo’s words. Although he had previously suspected the Devil Clans from the Land of Exile had invaded the Lower Province, it was still just his speculation. Now that Zheng Dong Ji had confirmed it, Duan Ling Tian’s heart turned heavy.

“It seems like the Devil Clans have really invaded the Lower Province. I wonder how father, mother, and the others are faring?” Duan Ling Tian could not help but worry about his family and friends who were in the Lower Province. His heart was filled with anxiety.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian wished he had wings to fly so he could return to his family and friends in the Lower Province.

“The Killing Formation in that restrictive space will be activated after 15 minutes… All those inside would die!” Elder Huo said, “Are you ready to devour their Innate Spiritual Roots?”

However, Duan Ling Tian remained motionless as though he did not hear Elder Huo’s words. All he could think about was his family’s well-being. Previously, he could put his worries aside since he was not certain the Devil Clans had invaded the Lower Province. However, with Zheng Dong Ji’s confirmation, he was overwhelmed by the worries he had hidden in the depth of his heart!

“I know you’re worried about your family and friends… Moreover, you probably can’t bear the thought of devouring those people’s Innate Spiritual Roots,” Elder Huo said with a sense of urgency, “However, think about this. Their Innate Spiritual Roots would only go to waste if you don’t devour them! If you devour them, your Innate Spiritual Root might even turn violet! Once you possess a violet Innate Spiritual Root, not only will you be able to save your wife and daughter, but you’ll be able to contribute in the war against the Devils as well. After that, you can focus on finding a way to return to the Lower Province and be reunited with your family and friends!”

Elder Huo advised Duan Ling Tian patiently. It seemed as though he was afraid Duan Ling Tian would miss the chance to devour so many high-grade Innate Spiritual Roots.

Almost as soon as Elder Huo finished speaking, Duan Ling Tian recovered from his shock. A hint of determination could be seen in his eyes. His aura had changed as well. It was as though he had transformed into a different person. Following that, he flew toward the restrictive space under Elder Huo’s guidance.

After almost 15 minutes…

Boom!

An earth-shattering explosion rang in the air. It came from the restrictive space where Meng Hao and the others were at. They had all been turned to dust.

Sou!

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian was traveling there at his fastest speed. As soon as he arrived, he extended his Divine Consciousness and sensed the soul remnants that contained Innate Spiritual Roots with a heavy heart.

“I hope all of you rest in peace. I will help all of you and contribute in the war against the Devils!” Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself as he devoured the Innate Spiritual Roots.

Based on Elder Huo’s words, Meng Hao and the others had died with resentment in their hearts. They all thought they were sinners! For this reason, he kept muttering these words to himself, in hopes that Meng Hao and the others could hear him and rest in peace.

Violet Innate Spiritual Root!”

Duan Ling Tian only regained his senses when Elder Huo’s voice rang in his ears. He shifted his attention to his Innate Spiritual Root and discovered it had turned violet.

Although it was only a light violet Innate Spiritual Root, Duan Ling Tian was still surprised. It made him momentarily forget about what had happened as a smile appeared on his face.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian tried to sense the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in his surroundings. He discovered his speed of absorbing the energy had improved significantly. “How fast! With my current cultivation speed and the help of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, can anyone in the whole of Dao Martial Saint Land even compete with me?” Duan Ling Tian’s confidence rose at this moment. It was not without a reason after all.

Those devils, Zheng Dong Ji and his friends, went to great lengths to set up such a trap. I’m certain they didn’t think that someone like me would be able to benefit from it!’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, feeling pleased.

After a while, he turned solemn. ‘However, it’s still a pity… I’ve devoured eight indigo Innate Spiritual Roots. Eight powerhouses at or above the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage have been killed by those three Devils!’

Eight cultivators at or above the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!

Duan Ling Tian felt chills running up his spine when he thought about this.

One should know there were only about a dozen or so known powerhouses at or above the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in Dao Martial Saint Land. Eight of them had died in this pseudo realm!

This was undoubtedly a huge blow to humans in the Dao Martial Saint Land.

This was also why Zheng Dong Ji thought this would be a great gift to the future generation of Devils! It was, indeed, a very thoughtful gift!
