2212 Duan Ling Tian“s Guess
Duan Ling Tian and the others were instantly pulled into the tear in the void just as Tang Xuan’s attack fell from the sky like a thunderbolt on the circular light shield that was formed from blood-red sword qi.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Mushroom clouds formed around the light shield following the thunderous explosions. The shockwave from the explosions caused the ground to quake, ruining the sprawling courtyard. The shockwave traveled out from the ruined courtyard into the surrounding areas.
Tang Xuan’s cultivation place, a huge sprawling estate, was mined from the assault. Smoke billowed everywhere. It seemed as though the apocalypse had arrived! However, Tang Xuan seemed indifferent to the aftermath. His attention was focused on something else.
“This... How’s this possible!?” Tang Xuan was shocked at his discovery. Although he had attacked the front part of the light shield, the light shield remained untouched. However, the area surrounding it was completely destroyed.
Although Tang Xuan had only used 70% of his strength, if other powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage tried to defend against his attack, they still would not be able to escape unscathed.
The spherical light shield formed by tens of thousands of blood-red sword qi remained motionless as it hovered in the air. The tear in the void that had pulled Duan Ling Tian and the others in slowly disappeared without a trace.
Tang Xuan could only stand and watch as all of this happened.
My goodness... What is this?’ Tang Xuan thought to himself as he looked at the spherical light shield that was formed from blood-red sword qi. He had no time to worry about where the four people had disappeared.
The spherical shield that was hovering in the air seemed like a wall that separated two worlds.
Earlier, Tang Xuan had no time to study the light shield carefully. Now that he was studying it, he discovered a faint and sour odor from the light shield. The odor seemed to be destroying everything within its reach. Just a moment ago, there was no time to observe carefully nor did he notice it. Apart from that, he had seen how indestructible it was. There was no doubt that the person who created such a light shield did not come from the mundane realm. He knew this very well. After all, he had met such a powerhouse a few decades ago. That powerhouse had god-like power. Until today, whenever he recalled how that powerhouse had raised his hand and wielded his power, he would break out in cold sweat as fear rose from the depth of his heart.
Before Tang Xuan could continue his trains of thought...
Whoosh!
The spherical shield formed by the thousands of blood-red sword qi suddenly disappeared before Tang Xuan’s eyes like a gust of wind. It had disappeared without a trace.
For a brief moment, Tang Xuan stood alone in the empty space that was ruined. He was at a loss.
Tang Xuan finally regained his senses and sighed. Such a powerful light shield that was formed from tens of thousands of blood-red sword qi had just disappeared without a trace in just a blink of an eye. He knew very well that this meant the powerhouse who had created the light shield had easily summoned the shield with just a wave of his hand.
Even if the person came from the Devata Realm, to be able to summon such a light shield with just a wave of his hand, this person must not be simple!’ Tang Xuan thought to himself as his breathing quickened. He looked at his surroundings warily, but he did not find anything suspicious.
The Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. Outside a rundown village. Shrekkk!
Following the sound of something being tom, a tear formed in the void. The tear lengthened until it was over ten meters long before it finally stopped growing. As soon as it stopped growing, it began to shrink rapidly like a spring that had been let go after it was pulled taut. When the tear was shrinking, three figures fell out of the tear.
There was a young man dressed in a purple robe and two young women who looked identical even though their bearings were different. One of the women carried a girl who was sound asleep.
As soon as these four people appeared, the purple-clad young man’s expression changed as he cried out in anguish, “Elder Huo!”
The purple-clad young man’s sudden cry shocked the women out of their daze. Their attention quickly shifted to the young man.
Young master, are you okay?” One of the women, the one with a gentle demeanor, looked at the young man with a worried expression. When she spoke, her voice was laced with anxiety.
However, the young man did not seem to hear her question. He stood motionlessly with a pained expression on his face. His body was trembling non-stop as though he had just gone through extreme agony.
“Duan Ling Tian?” The other woman, an elegant lady who was carrying a child, looked at the purple-robed young man and furrowed her slender brows.
The purple-clad young man was none other than Duan Ling Tian.
Just a moment ago, Duan Ling Tian, the two women, and the child were in the Fire Worship Sect that was located in the western region of the Upper Province in the Dao Martial Saint Land. However, in just a blink of an eye, they shuttled through space and arrived at the Lower Province of Dao Martial Saint Land!were
the western region of the Upper Province in the Dao Martial Saint Land. However, in just a blink of an eye, they were
During that time, not only did Duan Ling Tian discover he had lost contact with Elder Huo, but the bond between him and the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda had also been severed.
The Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda had long recognized Duan Ling Tian as its master. There was even a blood-bond to cement their ties. However, the bond had now disappeared without a trace!
The first thing that came to Duan Ling Tian’s mind was Elder Huo had used a ‘forbidden technique’ to protect them and open a tear in the void to send them from the Upper Province to the Lower Province. In the process, it had destroyed the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda! If the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was not destroyed, why was his link to the pagoda severed?
If the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda is destroyed, it would be impossible for Elder Huo to survive!’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as his heartbeat accelerated.
From the moment, Duan Ling Tian had obtained the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and met Elder Huo, Elder Huo had helped him through every single difficult situation. And now, Elder Huo had even sacrificed himself to protect him!
“Elder Huo!” Duan Ling Tian cried out in sorrow. He fell to his knees to honor the spirit of Elder Huo who had gone to heaven!
Although Ke’er did not know what was happening nor did she know who Elder Huo was, she could acutely feel her man’s pain. She instantly kneeled as well to keep him company.
Gan Ru Yan stood at the side, stunned and speechless by Duan Ling Tian’s actions. Moreover, she was also confused by her sudden appearance in this place. “This place... looks like the Lower Province?”
The Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in this place was far inferior to the Upper Province of Dao Martial Saint Land. It felt familiar to Gan Ru Yan. The feeling was similar to when she was previously in the Lower Province.
“Ke’er...” Duan Ling Tian who had been kneeling for a while finally said in a hoarse voice, “We’re back in the Lower Province... The reason we’re able to return is because of Elder Huo’s sacrifice! He had sacrificed himself so he could open a tear in the void to send us back here, allowing us to escape from the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect.” Grief and disappointment could be heard in his voice when he spoke.
After listening to Duan Ling Tian’s words, Ke’er finally understood why her man was in so much pain earlier and why he had suddenly kneeled on the ground. As it turned out, this Elder Huo had sacrificed himself in order to rescue them and send them back to the Lower Province!
Ke’er instantly kowtowed three times as she said emotionally, “Elder Huo, thank you for saving Young Master and all of us. Thank you.” Although she had not met Elder Huo before, the kind Ke’er felt sad when she learned of his sacrifice.
“Elder Huo?” When Gan Ru Yan learned about what happened, she followed suit and kowtowed three times as well.
Based on everything that Duan Ling Tian knew, it was only natural that he came to the conclusion that Elder Huo had sacrificed his life and destroyed the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda in order to rescue them and send them back to the Lower Province. Moreover, he could no longer sense the bond between him and the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. Apart from this, he could not think of any other possibilities.
However, was Duan Ling Tian’s conclusion correct?
The western region of the Upper Province in Dao Martial Saint Land West Region. Somewhere outside the estate of the Fire Worship Sect.
A young man in a blood-red robe hovered in the air. He held a miniature pagoda in his hand.
If Duan Ling Tian were here, he would be able to identify the pagoda as the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda that he had lost!
