War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Duan Ling Tian was relieved that his search for Destruction Divine Shuttles had ended in his favor. With that, he would be able to send his doppelgangers back to the lower realm.

‘If master still hasn’t returned the next time I send my doppelganger back, I’ll look for him in the Land of the Dead. Even if he’s fine, it must mean he’s unable to rid Mi Xuan from his body. If Mi Xuan continues to grow stronger, it’ll be dangerous to master,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, worried about his master.

Feng Qing Yang was a talented cultivator. He had also inherited the legacy of a supreme powerhouse through a fortuitous encounter. Naturally, his luck could not compare to Duan Ling Tian who possessed all Five Divine Elements.

In Duan Ling Tian’s opinion, he only managed to come so far all thanks to Feng Qing Yang. Even if his cultivation had surpassed that of Feng Qing Yang now, he did not think Feng Qing Yang was unqualified to be his master. After all, a master for a day was like a father for life. Moreover, based on Feng Qing Yang’s talent, there was no doubt he would soar to greater heights in the future in the Realms of Gods.

At this time, Duan Ling Tian suddenly asked, “Elder Qin,

Duan Ling Tian felt relieved that the search for the Destruction Divine Shuttle had ended in his favor and he could have his doppelganger return to the Devata Realm anytime he wanted.

‘If master hasn’t returned the next time my doppelganger returns to the Devata Realm, I’ll go to the Land of the Dead to look for him! Even if he’s alright, he still must be unable to escape from Mi Xuan if he’s not back from the Land of Dead… Mi Xuan might not battle to the death with master within this short period of time, but what if he continues to grow stronger?’ Duan Ling Tian could not help but feel concerned for his master.

Feng Qing Yang was naturally a talented cultivator. In terms of good fortune, Feng Qing Yang had also inherited the legacy of a supreme powerhouse whereas Duan Ling Tian was slightly luckier than him for possessing the Five Divine Elements. However, Duan Ling Tian could come this far mainly because of Feng Qing Yang. Even if his cultivation might have surpassed Feng Qing Yang, he did not think that would mean Feng Qing Yang was not qualified to be his master anymore. After all, as the saying went, a teacher for a day, a teacher for a lifetime. Moreover, based on Feng Qing Yang’s talent, he would definitely soar to greater heights in the Realm of Gods!

“Elder Qin, I know that natives of the Realms of Gods and those who’ve yet to attain godhood can’t travel to the lower realms using the Destructive Divine Shuttles. Can gods in the Devata Realm travel to the Realms of God using the Destruction Divine Shuttles?” Duan Ling Tian suddenly asked. If the answer was yes, then he could bring his master to the Realm of Gods.

Although it did not make a difference even if Feng Qing Yang waited another three hundred years for the spatial passage to reopen before coming to the Realms of Gods, Duan Ling Tian hoped his master could come to the Realms of Gods earlier. After all, now that his master had become a King of Gods, his master would have to face a Heavenly Tribulation every 1,000 years. The Heavenly Tribulations would only become more and more difficult with each passing one. It was imperative that his master get stronger as quickly as possible to increase his chances of survival when facing the Heavenly Tribulations. Heavenly Tribulations would get so difficult that there were many Supreme Gods who succumbed to it, let alone Kings of Gods, Lords of Gods, or Emperor of Gods. As for supreme powerhouses, he was not sure if they still had to face Heavenly Tribulations.

“They can,” Qin Wu Yang said confidently, “The Destructive Divine Shuttles can accurately send you to a specific lower realm, but the destination is uncertain when you use the Destruction Divine Shuttle to return to the Realm of Gods from the lower realm.”

Duan Ling Tian nodded as he thought to himself, ‘In that case, I’ll prepare a Destruction Divine Shuttle for master as well during my next visit. I’ll leave it up to him whether he uses it or not…’

Since Feng Qing Yang had just become a King of Gods not too long ago, Duan Ling Tian knew the first Heavenly Tribulation would be easy. Nonetheless, he still hoped his master would have a headstart.

…

Time passed quickly as the trio continued to chat. It did not take long before they arrived in Skywind City.

As soon as the trio arrived, a few figures appeared and bowed at the trio. These people were Qian Yin, the Sect Leader of the Hidden Fog Sect, and a few of his subordinates.

“Greetings, Elder Zhen, Elder Qin, Elder Duan…”

“Elder Duan?” Duan Ling Tian was slightly stunned by the form of address.

Qian Yi smiled and explained, “Elder Duan, Sect Leader Long has asked me to inform you that you’re now an honorary elder of the Flying Dragon Sect, a Silver Dragon Elder.”

A complicated expression could be briefly seen on Qian Yin’s face as he spoke. He did not expect Duan Ling Tian to surpass him by leaps and bounds in such a short time.

Duan Ling Tian was perplexed. He had never heard of a Silver Dragon Elder in the Flying Dragon Sect before.

“Silver Dragon Elder?” The corners of Qin Wu Yang’s lips twitched slightly as he looked at Zhen Ping Fang.

“Elder Duan, you’re the first Silver Dragon Elder in the Flying Dragon Sect,” Qian Yin explained again, “Sect Leader Long said that the Silver Dragon Elder is an honorary title in the Flying Dragon Sect. A Silver Dragon Elder has the same status as Golden Dragon Elders, but without the obligations.”

At this moment, Zhen Ping Fan could no longer hold back his laughter. After laughing, he said, “Silver Dragon Elder… Yin Long? Duan Ling Tian, should I call you Yin Long from today onward?1”

After Zhen Ping Zhan emphasized the word ‘Yin Long’, realization dawned on Duan Ling Tian. He looked at Zhen Ping Fang, feeling speechless. After a while, he asked, “Elder Zhen, was this your idea?”

“Do you like it?” Zhen Ping Fan continued to laugh. When he was in the Flying Dragon Sect, he had suggested this to Long Qing Chong. Long Qing Chong had found the title inappropriate, but he could not refuse and could only agree.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian really felt like beating Zhen Ping Fang up. Alas, he could only smile helplessly now. In the future, when he surpassed Zhen Ping Fang, he would definitely pay Zhen Ping Fan back for this prank.

Zhen Ping Fang was naturally unaware of Duan Ling Tian’s thoughts. He was also unaware of the repercussions of his silly prank in the future.

After a while, Qian Yin said, “Elders, please follow me.”

Then, Qian Yin led the trio into Skywind City and to the king-rank Zhong clan’s estate. Before the trio’s arrival, he had already captured all the people involved in Duan Ling Tian’s assassination attempt, which included the Clan Leader of the Zhong clan and members of other king-rank forces. He had placed them in a huge cage in the Zhong clan’s estate.

When they arrived at the Zhong clan’s estate, Qian Yin said, “Elder Duan, the culprits are all here.”

The faces of the people in the cage were ashen, and despair could be seen on their faces.

At the same time, the Hidden Fog Sect’s elders, who were guarding the prisoners, bowed and greeted the trio.

“Greetings, Elder Zhen, Elder Qin, and Elder Duan.”

Duan Ling Tian recognized the two elders from the Hidden Fog Sect as Elder Yun and Elder Wu, two of the Four Supreme Elders of the Hidden Fog Sect.

The two supreme elders were tasked with guarding the prisoners to ensure that none of them escaped since the duo was one of the strongest in the Hidden Fog Sect. Their strength was almost comparable to that of the Supreme Elders of the Linghu clan.

Supreme Elder Yun and Supreme Elder Wu’s expressions were complicated when they looked at Duan Ling Tian. After all, the young man they had looked down upon not only became stronger than them, but his status was higher than theirs now. They felt chills running up their spines when they thought about how a 3,000-year-old rudimentary Lord of Gods was capable of killing ordinary intermediate Lords of Gods. Not only that, but he had also joined the Pure Yang Sect, one of the top emperor-rank forces in the Eastern Ridge Mansion. If he did not die prematurely, he would definitely soar to greater heights. Put the future aside, at this moment, he could easily decide their fates with just a few words.

Meanwhile, the culprits fell to their knees and began to plead for mercy when they saw Duan Ling Tian.

“Elder Duan, please show mercy!”

“Elder Duan, please forgive me! I was a fool in the past. I’ll be more than willing to be your servant if you spare me my life!”

“Elder Duan, please spare my lowly life!”

Some of them kowtowed so hard that blood began to trickle down their faces.

There were also some who stood motionlessly and sighed as they looked at Duan Ling Tian with a bitter and complicated expression on their faces.

Duan Ling Tian looked at the culprits expressionlessly and said, “I didn’t offend any of you in the past, and yet, that didn’t stop you from sending death warriors to kill me. If I wasn’t strong enough to defend myself, I would’ve died at that time. You have to pay for your actions.”

Upon hearing this, some of them panicked and cried even louder than before, pleading for mercy.

At the same time, a spatial storm suddenly appeared and swept toward the huge cage. In just a moment, nothing, not even the cage, was left except for a mist of blood.

Those dressed in white robes who stood near the cage found their robes were faintly red.

“Sect Leader Qian, sorry for the inconvenience caused,” Duan Ling Tian said before he left with Zhen Ping Fan and Qin Wu Yang for the Pure Yang Sect.

Qian Yin and the others from the Hidden Fog Sect were filled with mixed feelings as they watched Duan Ling Tian disappear from sight. To think they had expelled such a peerless prodigy from their sect back then.
