War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Soon after, Wu Feng was transported out of the Divine Sanctuary as well. He asked, “Junior Brother Duan, will you return to the sect with me or do you plan to return after breaking through and becoming a rudimentary King of Gods?”

At this moment, Wu Feng seemed to have returned to his normal self. Earlier, he had said those words that were out of character because of his curiosity and the influence of Qin Wu’s remnant soul. Under the influence of Qin Wu’s remnant soul, he had been overcome with greed for Duan Ling Tian’s

treasure. The remnant soul had felt it was best to kill Duan Ling Tian so his host could obtain all the treasures. Fortunately, Wu Feng was able to regain control of his emotions and did not let the remnant soul dictate his actions. Moreover, he was aware that even if he killed Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ling

Tian’s Spatial Ring would self-destruct.

“Senior Brother Wu, I won’t return to the sect with you,” Duan Ling Tian replied as he shook his head, “I plan to find a quiet place to break through and become a rudimentary King of Gods first. After that, I’ll consider whether to return to the sect or not.”

Duan Ling Tian still planned to return to the Hidden Fog Sect eventually. After all, he had yet to resolve the enmity between him and Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao. He was determined to settle the accounts with them in the future after he had gotten stronger.

“Alright.” Wu Feng respected Duan Ling Tian’s decision and did not try to persuade him to return.

Before parting, Wu Feng looked at Duan Ling Tian and said, “Junior Brother, thank you again. Not only did you give me the prominent divine artifact with an incomplete soul, but you also gave the remnant soul of Emperor of Gods Qin Wu to me. I’ll definitely return this favor in the future!”

‘Wu Feng finally revealed that his soul had fused with Qin Wu’s remnant soul.

Although Duan Ling Tian had already suspected this, his expression still turned solemn upon hearing Wu Feng’s words. He reminded Wu Feng out of concern and said, “Senior Brother Wu, I understand that you think it’s beneficial to let Emperor of Gods Qin Wu’s remnant soul integrate with yours, and

that is indeed the case. However, I hope you’ll be able to stay true to yourself in the future and not let the remnant soul affect you. I hope you won’t let the remnant soul’s subconscious thoughts affect your decisions and actions. You have to remember that you’re you, not Emperor of Gods Qin Wu.”

“Don’t worry. I know what to do.” Wu Feng nodded.

“Alright. Don’t underestimate the remnant soul. It came from an Emperor of Gods, after all,” Duan Ling Tian said before he left.

Now that Qin Wu’s remnant soul had integrated with Wu Feng’s soul, no one could tell what would happen in the future. Apart from raising his comprehension skills, no one knew how big of an influence the remnant soul would have on him for now. However, no matter what, it was impossible for the

remnant soul to take over Wu Feng’s body. After all, it was just a remnant soul that Qin Wu left behind. In this world, no one wanted to die; not even Emperors of Gods who had lived for a long time.

After separating from Wu Feng, Duan Ling Tian took a huge detour before he found a remote valley and decided to cultivate there.

“Tl consume the Auspicious Divine Fruit first to break through and become a King of Gods. After that, I’ll decide whether to return to the sect immediately or not. Once I return, I’ll display my strength before recommending myself to be a nominal disciple of Supreme Elder Yun or Supreme Elder Wu.”

Before Duan Ling Tian began to cultivate, he asked Huang’er, the artifact soul of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, to protect him. After receiving the mysterious bead from Yang Yun Xiao, the Heavenly Emperor of the Floating Heaven, a Devata Realm, Huang’er had been refining the bead, and in turn,

improving the quality of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword. She had only managed to completely refine it not too long ago. With this, according to Huang’er, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword had reached the limit of a prominent divine artifact. Apart from that, her strength had also increased

accordingly.

Since Duan Ling Tian was an advanced god, Huang’er’s cultivation base was also that of an advanced god. However, since her comprehension of the law was more profound than Duan Ling Tian’s, coupled with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, she was stronger than him.

For all these reasons, Duan Ling Tian felt at ease with Huang’er guarding him. Moreover, if Huang’er could not deal with her opponent, it was even less likely that he would be able to deal with the opponent.

“Huang’er, hide in my body… If Wu Feng shows up and intends to harm me, kill him,” Duan Ling Tian said decisively. He had trusted Wu Feng, but he did not trust the Wu Feng whose soul had been integrated with Qin Wu’s remnant soul. He could clearly feel the negative changes in Wu Feng. For this

reason, he did not think it was impossible for Wu Feng to secretly follow him here to ambush him while he was cultivating. However, he thought that Wu Feng would severely injure him at most. After all, if Wu Feng killed him, his Spatial Ring would self-destruct, and Wu Feng would lose the treasures in

his possession.

“Yes, master,” Huang’er replied respectfully.

With that, Duan Ling Tian felt relieved. He consumed the Auspicious Divine Fruit and focused on his cultivation. He could feel the Divine Energy in his body surging as soon as he consumed the Auspicious Divine Fruit.

He quickly circulated his Divine Energy according to his cultivation method before he guided it to break through the bottleneck.

Bang!

With the help of the Auspicious Divine Fruit, Duan Ling Tian easily broke through the bottleneck that he had tried breaking thousands of times in the past.

“So fast?!

Although Duan Ling Tian knew about the potency of the Auspicious Divine Pill, he still did not expect the breakthrough to come so quickly and smoothly.

After the breakthrough, he could clearly feel his Divine Energy undergoing a qualitative transformation. His Divine Energy was clearly richer than before.

Boom!

Duan Ling Tian released a surge of his Divine Energy and saw the void ripple in its wake. He could clearly feel the Divine Energy was much stronger than before.

“Tonly used up a small part of the divine fruit’s efficacy…” Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself.

Since the Auspicious Divine Fruit was only helpful to gods, now that Duan Ling Tian had become a King of Gods, the remaining efficacy from the Auspicious Divine Fruits dissipated immediately.

If people were to find out that Duan Ling Tian had used the Auspicious Divine Fruit when he was just a step from breaking through and becoming a King of Gods, they would surely think he was being wasteful.

However, to Duan Ling Tian, he did not think he was being wasteful. Although he was just a step away from becoming a King of Gods, he did not know how much time it would take. What he lacked most was time now.

“Nowy, I’ll consume the Consolidation Divine Fruit to stabilize my cultivation base as a rudimentary King of Gods. Then, I’ll cultivate further. Among the treasures I obtained, there are some that can help the cultivation of a King of Gods,” Duan Ling Tian muttered under his breath.

suddenly, a thought appeared unbidden in his mind.

‘In the Realms of Gods, one can be considered crossing the threshold to become a powerhouse after becoming a King of Gods. After becoming a King of Gods, one would have to face the Heavenly Tribulations once every 1,000 years. However, when one first becomes a rudimentary King of Gods, one would

have to face the first Heavenly Tribulation three days later.’

It was as though now that he had become a rudimentary King of Gods, he could sense when the next Heavenly Tribulation would be.

“Under normal circumstances, as long as one has comprehended the profundities of a law to the mastery stage, it should be easy to pass the first Heavenly Tribulation after becoming a rudimentary King of Gods.” Duan Ling Tian had learned about this a while ago.

In the Realms of Gods, those who had a high aptitude in cultivation might not necessarily have a high comprehension skill. There were many advanced gods who had yet to comprehend all their profundities from the laws to the mastery stage. For this group of people, even if they could break through and

become a rudimentary King of Gods, they would not do so since they would not be able to pass the first Heavenly Tribulation.

On the contrary, the first Heavenly Tribulation after he became a rudimentary King of Gods was not a problem at all. He was confident he would be able to easily pass the tribulation.

“The Consolidation Divine Fruit will help me stabilize my cultivation base as a rudimentary King of Gods in just a day,” Duan Ling Tian murmured as he looked at the Consolidation Divine Fruit in his hands with bright eyes.

He was rewarded with the Consolidation Divine Fruit when he first became a core disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect. At that time, when he had selected the Consolidation Divine Fruit as his reward, the inner elder had been puzzled by his choice.

After consuming the Consolidation Divine Fruit, Duan Ling Tian began to cultivate again.

The efficacy of the Consolidation Divine Fruit did not disappoint Duan Ling Tian at all. Just as the rumors said, he managed to stabilize his cultivation base as a rudimentary King of Gods in less than a day.

“After stabilizing my cultivation base, my Divine Energy has grown even stronger and richer than before. Compared to when I’d just broken through, it’s about 30% stronger now.”

Duan Ling Tian was very satisfied with his improvement after stabilizing his cultivation base.

Since the Heavenly Tribulation would come in two days, Duan Ling Tian did not continue to cultivate. Instead, he looked through the treasures he obtained from the Divine Sanctuary. Among the treasures he obtained, he only recognized a few of them. Moreover, he did not have time to study them

carefully.
