Chapter 4242 - 4242 Duan Ling Tian Attacks

4242 Duan Ling Tian Attacks

‘As expected, it’s not that simple.’

Duan Ling Tian, who did not think that ten apes were a threat previously, nodded inwardly. Previously, he had felt that the final level was too simple and speculated that there was more than meets the eye. As it turned out, he was right. The final level was much harder. The ten apes had turned into an ape demon. To be precise, the ten apes were the doppelgangers of the ape demon. After the apes returned to their original body, the ape demon’s cultivation base rose to that of a rudimentary Supreme God. Moreover, even if it was lacking compared to his law of space, the ape demon’s comprehension of the law of fire was rather profound as well; it could manifest a phenomenon that shone for 100,000 miles.

At this time, the veiled woman’s eyes widened slightly as she watched the ape demon charge over. As she hastily retreated, she looked at Duan Ling Tian and asked in a slightly anxious voice, “Aren’t you going to make your move yet?”

The veiled woman’s voice was no longer as steady as before.

Duan Ling Tian only smiled faintly in response. Then, he teleported and appeared in the path of the ape demon, blocking it.

The ape demon came to a halt and brandished the blazing long staff in its hand.

Bang!

When the ape demon brought the staff down, the void rippled, looking as though it was going to tear.

At the same time, Duan Ling Tian made a move as well.

A dazzling seven-colored sword ray shot out in the sky and blocked the long staff.

Boom!

Another explosion rang in the air as the long staff landed on the seven-colored sword ray. The sword ray dimmed slightly, and the flames on the road seemed to turn smaller as well. After a while, the flames on the staff completely died down while the dimmed sword ray remained.

The ape demon withdrew its long staff and stopped attacking. It looked at Duan Ling Tian with a hint of anxiety flashing in its red eyes as it said, “Human, you’re not the one I want to kill.”

At this time, the ape demon’s hand that was holding the long staff was trembling slightly. Only it knew what it experienced earlier. Although it did not unleash its full strength earlier, it had used about 70% of its strength. However, its opponent was able to stop its attack easily without using the bloodline power. Moreover, its opponent was just an advanced Emperor of Gods, but its opponent’s comprehension of the law of space was much more profound than its comprehension of the law of fire. Most importantly, it detected the traces of the Sword Dao, one of the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth, in its opponent’s attack.

Meanwhile, apart from Hou Lian Yu and the veiled woman, Jiang Yu Wei, Hou Dong, Qiu Ping gasped in shock. Their eyes were filled with disbelief when they looked at Duan Ling Tian. Although they knew he was strong, they did not expect him to be so strong. Even the veiled woman was forced to retreat by the ape demon, but he managed to gain the upper hand in a direct confrontation with the ape demon.

‘His strength…’

The veiled woman, who was standing in the distance, looked at Duan Ling Tian in shock. The worst-case scenario she had thought of earlier came true; Duan Ling Tian’s strength was comparable to that of an ordinary rudimentary Supreme God. Although the ape demon did not use its full strength, in her opinion, Duan Ling Tian had yet to use his bloodline power as well. It was clear that he was still holding back his strength.

Although Hou Lian Yu already knew Duan Ling Tian was strong, he still could not help but feel slightly shocked.

‘Big Brother Duan is really too powerful… Although he’s just an advanced Emperor of Gods, he has strength that rivals a Supreme God….’

At this time, Duan Ling Tian looked at the ape demon and said expressionlessly, “Attack with all your might. If you want to kill her, you’ll have to go through me first.”

Despite being wary of Duan Ling Tian, the ape demon was infuriated by Duan Ling Tian’s words, which it thought were humiliating. “Human, since you have a death wish, I’ll fulfill your wish!”

Following that, the ape demon roared, and a ten-meter-tall Supreme God Phenomenon appeared. After it merged with the phenomenon, the long staff in its hand grew accordingly as well.

The void shook as the ten-meter-tall ape demon moved, sending out shockwaves into the surroundings. It swung the long staff in its hand as though it was trying to bring the heavens down and dominate the lands.

“Die!” the ape demon bellowed as flames that soared to the sky appeared on the long staff. At the same time, its red eyes glinted before balls of flames appeared like stars in the sky. In just a moment, the balls of flames grew and weaved into a flaming net that closed in on Duan Ling Tian.

Boom!

The long staff fell down like it was capable of cleaving the heavens into two. Hairline cracks appeared in its wake as it swooshed past. Based on this, one could tell how powerful the attack was. Clearly, the ape demon no longer held back and had attacked with all its might.

Hou Lian Yu, Jiang Yu Wei, Hou Dong, and Qiu Ping watched in shock.

“So powerful!”

“I’m afraid that even a weak rudimentary Supreme God would not be able to withstand this strike!”

“He won’t be crushed to death just like that, right? If he dies, we have to escape immediately!”

After that, a portal appeared above Jiang Yu Wei, Hou Dong, and Qiu Ping.

Alas, no portal could be seen above Hou Lian Yu and the veiled woman. They were both focused on Duan Ling Tian at this moment.

Hou Lian Yu’s confidence did not waver. He was certain that Duan Ling Tian would win. As such, he ignored Hou Dong’s Voice Transmission urging him to open a portal to leave the natural secret realm.

Meanwhile, the veiled woman looked at Duan Ling Tian curiously. She wondered if he was truly a match for the ape demon. If he possessed the strength of a weak rudimentary Supreme God, he would only be on par with the ape demon. It would be also impossible to defeat the ape demon, let alone kill it. Even if he had Hou Lian Yu’s help, it was useless. Hou Lian Yu who was only close to becoming an imminent Supreme God was not strong enough to help. Moreover, if Hou Lian Yu made a move recklessly, not only would he be of no help, but he might even become a burden to Duan Ling Tian.

‘If he’s only on par with the ape demon, I still have a chance to act. With that, I’ll still be able to obtain the final reward,’ the veiled woman thought to herself hopefully, ‘In any case, I’ll only make my move once he and the ape demon are injured. Otherwise, he’ll definitely get a bigger share of the reward.’

Thought after thought appeared in the veiled woman’s mind as she made all kinds of calculations. She knew that her calculations were only useful if she was right about Duan Ling Tian being only as strong as a weak rudimentary Supreme God. If Duan Ling Tian was capable of defeating the ape demon on his own, all her calculations would be for naught. She had no intention of snatching the reward from Duan Ling Tian even if Duan Ling Tian was injured from defeating the ape demon. She had her own principles, after all. She would not deliberately harm others, but she would always guard herself against others.

At this time, Duan Ling Tian, who was surrounded by flames, smiled faintly as he said, “You’re as strong as a weak rudimentary Supreme God…”

Duan Ling Tian was incredibly calm. It was as though everything was in his control.

In the next moment, Duan Ling Tian made his move.

A terrifying sword ray shot out as a spatial storm began to rage.

At the same time, Duan Ling Tian cast his Sword Dao, Mastery Dao, and law of space.

Following that, the speed of the flaming net that was closing in on Duan Ling Tian slowed down.

“Mastery Dao?!” the ape demon cried out, alarmed, “Who the hell are you? How can a mere advanced Emperor of Gods comprehend two Daos of Heaven and Earth?!”

The ape demon roared and brought its long staff down to meet the terrifying sword ray. It did not bother to probe the sword ray. Otherwise, it would discover that the sword ray was not just a prominent divine artifact.

Boom!

When the sword ray and the long staff collided, the void began to distort.

Following that, frightening shockwaves rolled out, sending Hou Lian Yu, Jiang Yu Wei, Hou Dong, and Qiu Ping; who were standing quite a distance away; flying back.

Hou Lian Yu, who was standing the closest, spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face paled immediately. However, his eyes did not leave the battle at all. He exclaimed, “Is… Is that a doppelganger from a law?”

“He’s not a native of a Realm of Gods?!” The veiled woman, whose veil was partially removed by the shockwaves, looked at Duan Ling Tian in shock. Initially, she had assumed that he had a formidable background in the Divine Offering Land. She thought that she had never heard of his name before because he had been hiding his strength. However, the reveal of his doppelganger completely shattered her theories. As it turned out, he was not a native of a Realm of Gods. Only those from the lower realms could form doppelgangers from the laws they comprehended.

‘He’s far stronger than a weak rudimentary Supreme God,’ the veiled woman thought to herself with a sigh.

At this time, Duan Ling Tian had already appeared in front of the ape demon. At the same time, his doppelganger that was wielding a seven-colored sword ray appeared behind the ape demon as well.
