War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Liu Xiao Zhou is the son of a Vice Mansion Master of the Martial Battle Mansion. Although he was not as strong as Heng Feng, he was someone who had comprehended five profundities from the law of metal and was in the process of comprehending the sixth profundity. His highest rank on the scoreboard of the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm was 69th place. It was incredibly rare for a Ten Directions Celestial Duke who had merely comprehended five profundities from a law to make it into the top 70. This could be attributed to him comprehending the law of metal as well. If he were to comprehend the law of earth, he would not even make it to the top 80, let alone the top 70.

Previously, everyone present on the scene saw Liu Xiao Zhou’s name at the 78th place. They knew, based on his strength, he could still rise in ranks. In fact, many of them were looking forward to it. Who knew he would be eliminated right after Heng Feng? Moreover, both of them were eliminated back to back.

“I didn’t even bother fighting that person who defeated Senior Brother Heng; I surrendered immediately.” Liu Xiao Zhou shrugged in response to the elder’s question.

Silence descended on the place as soon as Liu Xiao Zhou finished speaking.

After a few moments, the elder who had spoken earlier asked again, “You mean you’re also eliminated by the person who breached Heng Feng’s defenses?”

Whoosh! Whoosh!

As soon as the elder finished speaking, two more figures appeared after they were eliminated from the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.

“Two more people are eliminated? At this point, our Martial Battle Mansion only has roughly 10 people left in the middle realm, right?”

In less than 15 minutes, four people were eliminated from the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. This was rare in the Martial Battle Mansion.

“Were the both of you eliminated by the same person who eliminated Heng Feng and Xiao Zhou?” The Martial Battle Mansion elder looked at the two Martial Battle Mansion disciples who had just been eliminated with a shocked expression on his face. The intervals between these four disciples’ eliminations were too short so he knew it could not be a coincidence.

“Yes.”

The Martial Battle Mansion elders and disciples looked at the two disciples in shock.

One of them nodded and said with a bitter smile on his face, “There are another seven who were also eliminated. They might have been transported to the other Transportation Formations in the estate since they didn’t show up here…”

The entire place was as silent as a graveyard.

There were another seven disciples who were eliminated as well? In other words, within 15 minutes, 11 disciples, including Heng Feng and Liu Xiao Zhou, were eliminated? Most importantly, they were all eliminated by the same person?

“With this, he managed to enter the top 50,” Liu Xiao Zhou said with a bitter smile on his face as he looked at the scoreboard.

Upon hearing Liu Xiao Zhou’s words, the group of Martial Battle Mansion elders and disciples turned to look at the scoreboard as well. It did not take long before their eyes found the name in the 45th place. They were keeping an eye on the top 50 rankings earlier so it was easy for them to discover the new name that had just appeared.

One Martial Battle Mansion disciple said, “This name seemed to have 19 points earlier. He was ranked 52nd. He’s from the Profound Nether Mansion, but I’ve never heard of his name before this.”

“I’ve never heard of him as well.”

“Duan Ling Tian? When did the Profound Nether Mansion have such a disciple?”

“Is he the Profound Nether Mansion’s secret trump card?”

Most of the elders and disciples had learned that Duan Ling Tian was from the Profound Nether Mansion, and he was the one who had defeated Heng Feng and eliminated Liu Xiao Zhou and the others. Since he was capable of breaching Heng Feng’s defenses and defeating Heng Feng, did this not mean he could easily rank in the top 30?

“Were all of you… Did he eliminate all of you by himself?” the Martial Battle Mansion elder asked again. He found the entire matter hard to believe. Initially, he had assumed the Green Spirit Mansion’s Leng Yun You or the Han Wing Mansion’s Liu Qi had defeated Heng Feng since the duo were the only ones left in the middle realm at this time who were capable of defeating Heng Feng. When Heng Feng denied it and said it was someone from the Profound Nether Mansion, he was shocked. He grew even more shocked when Liu Xiao Zhao and the others said they were also eliminated by the same person.

“It’s no surprise we haven’t heard of him… He told me he just joined the Profound Nether Mansion a few days ago. Based on his identity token, he’s only an outer court disciple in the Profound Nether Mansion,” Liu Xiao Zhou said, “I suspect the Profound Nether Mansion sought help from him. Moreover, he probably has an extraordinary background.”

After Liu Xiao Zhou crushed his Accumulative Point Jade, he was bold enough to probe Duan Ling Tian with his Divine Consciousness, making a shocking discovery. Duan Ling Tian was not even 100 years old! What kind of person who was less than 100 years old could defeat Heng Feng who had comprehended seven profundities from the law of earth? If he did not probe Duan Ling Tian with his Divine Consciousness, he would not have believed it if he had heard it from someone else. For this reason, he did not plan on telling anyone about his shocking discovery. After all, what was the point of mentioning it when he knew no one would believe him?

“He just joined the Profound Nether Mansion a few days ago as an outer court disciple? Heng Feng, what law did he comprehend? Since he managed to breach your defenses, it has to be one of the offensive laws… Moreover, he must have comprehended seven profundities, at least, right?” the Martial Battle Mansion elder asked curiously.

Everyone, including Liu Xiao Zhou, shifted their gaze to Heng Feng.

Although Liu Xiao Zhou knew Duan Ling Tian had comprehended the law of space, he did not know how many profundities Duan Ling Tian had comprehended. Moreover, he was not familiar with the law of space.

“I’m not sure how many profundities he comprehended, but he used seven profundities to defeat me,” Heng Feng replied. He had noted Duan Ling Tian had used six profundities from the law of space during their fight.

When he fought the Profound Nether Mansion’s outer court disciple Duan Ling Tian, he noted that Duan Ling Tian had used six types of law of space profundities. When Duan Ling Tian’s Cross-Dimensional Slash Profundity forced him into a life-or-death situation, he managed to comprehend the Defense Profundity. At that time, he had thought he would be able to resist Duan Ling Tian’s attack. Alas, he did not expect Duan Ling Tian to use the Transportation Formation to transport the attack to another location. With that, his Defense Profundity was rendered useless.

The elder was aware of Heng Feng’s strength. Therefore, he quickly came to a conclusion. “He used seven profundities? No wonder you lost… Those who comprehend offensive laws such as the law of wind, the law of metal, the law of fire, the law of thunder, or the law of destruction could easily breach your defenses especially when they have comprehended one profundity more than you.”

Before Heng Feng could reply, Liu Xiao Zhou interjected, “Elder Yun, Senior Brother Heng Feng’s defenses were breached after he comprehended the Defense Profundity.”

“What?!” Liu Xiao Zhou’s words thoroughly stunned the elder. “Heng Feng has comprehended the Defense Profundity?” Based on what he knew, Heng Feng had only comprehended six profundities from the law of earth and was in the process of comprehending the Defense Profundity.

“Heng Feng…” The elder turned to look at Heng Feng for confirmation.

“That’s right.” Heng Feng nodded. “Actually, I have to thank him for that… When we were fighting, I was pushed into a life-or-death situation. For that reason, I managed to comprehend the Defense Profundity. It was only after I comprehended the Defense Profundity that he used his seventh profundity. Otherwise, he would’ve been able to defeat me with six profundities!” He felt chills running up his spine when he recalled Duan Ling Tian’s formidable attack.

“He would only need six profundities to defeat you if you didn’t comprehend the Defense Profundity? Even after you comprehended the Defense Profundity, he still managed to defeat you by casting his seventh profundity?” The Martial Battle Mansion’s elder widened in shock as he inhaled sharply.

The other Martial Battle Mansion elders and disciples who were aware of Heng Feng’s strength were similarly shocked.

Another elder asked solemnly, “Did he… Did he comprehend one of the Four Supreme Laws?” In his opinion, even if someone had comprehended offensive laws such as the law of wind, the law of metal, the law of fire, the law of thunder, or the law of destruction, it would still be difficult to breach Heng Feng’s defenses after Heng Feng had comprehended the seventh profundity. Moreover, with the seventh profundity, Heng Feng had comprehended the two main defensive profundities from the law of earth. Moreover, the Rock Style Profundity would boost Heng Feng’s defenses. Therefore, he speculated that Heng Feng’s opponent had comprehended one of the Four Supreme Laws.
