Chapter 3436: The Sword Mark Canyon
Duan Ling Tian felt as though he had been shown the door to a new world after listening to the World Cleansing Divine Water. He was also shocked when he discovered Feng Qing Yang had of becoming a supreme powerhouse even though Feng Qing Yang did not possess any of the Divine Elements or comprehend one of the Four Supreme Laws. Instead, it was because he had comprehended his own Dao.
“Actually, even without the Five Divine Elements, those who comprehend the laws of the five elements can also become a supreme powerhouse through the comprehension of their own Dao. It’s not unprecedented for someone to become a supreme powerhouse through this method, but it’s really rare. Those who managed to become supreme powerhouses through the comprehension of their Daos are all peerless geniuses; how can those who rely on the Five Divine Elements or the Four Supreme Laws compare to those who completely rely on themselves?” A hint of reverence could be heard in the World Cleansing Divine Water as it praised Feng Qing Yang’s outstanding talent and abilities. “The fact that your master is capable of comprehending his own Sword Dao to such an extent, he can be considered a first-rate peerless genius even in the Realms of Gods!”
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was thoroughly shocked. In the past, while he was still in the mundane realm, he had possessed extraordinary power after inheriting Feng Qing Yang’s legacy, the Sovereign Heart Sword. Following that, he knew that Feng Qing Yang was no ordinary person and even learned that Feng Qing Yang was a legend in the Saint Province Realm. Even after he ascended to a Devata Realm, he discovered Feng Qing Yang was truly extraordinary. Nevertheless, he did not imagine Feng Qing Yang was so monstrously talented that he even comprehended his own Sword Dao. Even those with similar cultivation bases and comprehension levels of the laws with his master were no match for his master. To think the World Cleansing Divine Heavens even said someone like Feng Qing Yang was as rare as a phoenix feather even in the Realms of Gods. Feng Qing Yang, who was known as the Invincible Sword Celestial by the Sword Celestials in the Solitary Destructive Heaven, truly lived up to his moniker.
“Creating and comprehending my own Dao…” Duan Ling Tian was lost in the world of Dao after listening to World Cleansing Divine Water. He was fascinated by it.
…
After Duan Ling Tian returned to his courtyard, he assumed he would have to wait a few days before he would see Feng Qing Yang again since Feng Qing Yang had told him to rest for a few days. To his surprise, he received a message from Feng Qing Yang a day later. When he finally saw Feng Qing Yang, he finally discovered why Feng Qing Yang had summoned him over.
Yang Yun Xiao, the Heavenly Emperor of the Floating Heaven, had come to the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. Next to him was a person who was tightly bound. “Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang, I’ve done as you’ve asked me to…”
A hint of helplessness could be seen in Yang Yun Xiao’s eyes at this moment. If this were in the past when he was still on par with Feng Qing Yang, perhaps, he might have a chance at protecting his second disciple. However, now that Feng Qing Yang had attained godhood, it would be as easy as killing a chicken for Feng Qing Yang to kill him. Therefore, he could only hand his second disciple over to Feng Qing Yang after being threatened.
“The Almighty Wind Celestial Emperor.” Duan Ling Tian, who was standing next to Feng Qing Yang, looked at Kong Fen expressionlessly. He looked at Kong Feng as though he was looking at a stranger instead of an enemy. This was because he had no doubt Kong Fen would die soon.
“This is him?” Feng Qing Yang looked at Duan Ling Tian for confirmation.
“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded.
“You can kill him yourself,” Feng Qing Yang said.
“Yes, master,” Duan Ling Tian responded. He said to Yang Yun Xiao as he strode forward, “Heavenly Emperor Yang Yun Xiao, please restrain him carefully while I kill him. If he manages to retaliate and injure me, my master will be displeased…” He smiled widely after he finished speaking.
Yang Yun Xiao fumed in anger inwardly upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s arrogant words. Despite his anger, he could only nod with a smile on his face in fear of angering Feng Qing Yang. “Rest assured, Junior Nephew Duan, he won’t be able to harm you as long as I’m here!”
“Duan Ling Tian!” Kong Fen suddenly called out. The gloomy expression on his face had eased somewhat, and his eyes were rather bright as he continued to say, “I, Kong Feng, am willing to be your slave forever if you spare my life!”
“The Almighty Wind Celestial Emperor is willing to be my slave?” Duan Ling Tian smiled faintly at Kong Fen’s cowardly attempt to preserve his life. His eyes glinted coldly as he killed Kong Fen without any hesitation.
Since Kong Fen was restrained by Yang Yun Xiao, there was nothing he could do to defend himself against Duan Ling Tian.
After Kong Fen died, Yang Yun Xiao looked at Feng Qing Yang and asked, “Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang, are you satisfied now?”
Feng Qing Yang nodded slightly.
Since Yang Yun Xiao did not want to stay a moment longer in this place, he left immediately after bidding farewell to Feng Qing Yang.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian further realized the importance of being strong.
Yang Yun Xiao, the Heavenly Emperor of the Floating Heaven, who ruled over one of the Devata Realms could only lower himself in front of Feng Qing Yang. He was even forced to hand his disciple over to be slaughtered. If Yang Yun Xiao was stronger or even on par with Feng Qing Yang, Duan Ling Tian would not have a chance to kill Kong Fen.
…
Following that, Duan Ling Tian rested in his courtyard and further comprehended his fused profundities from the law of space through the Supreme Powerhouse Divinity.
After a few days, he was awakened by a message from Feng Qing Yang asking him to join him for cultivation.
After arriving at Feng Qing Yang’s residence, Duan Ling Tian was brought to a barren canyon located in a forbidden area in the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven.
Duan Ling Tian had passed by this area before. Not only was there no human activity, but the canyon was so still that there seemed to be no sign of life at all. Even birds could not be seen flying in the sky.
When they arrived at the canyon, a surge of terrifying energy appeared in the sky above the canyon when Feng Qing Yang raised his hand.
Chills ran up Duan Ling Tian’s spine when he felt the energy in the sky. He felt as though he was about to enter a sea of fire.
“Let’s enter.”
As Duan Ling Tian followed Feng Qing Yang deeper into the canyon, he saw something he would never forget for the rest of his life. There were sword marks on every surface in the canyon! There were all kinds of sword marks: deep, shallow, horizontal, vertical, criss-cross, and so on. Each and every marking spoke of terrifying strength.
“This canyon is where I practice my sword skill… Since you’re going to learn my Sword Dao you should spend some time here to see if you can gain any insight,” Feng Qing Yang said, “Apart from me, you’re the first person to come to this place. There’s a Formation that can only be deactivated by me. If the Formation is somehow broken, the canyon would automatically self-destruct.”
Upon hearing Feng Qing Yang’s words, Duan Ling Tian realized the importance of the canyon. It reminded him of the place in the mundane realm where he had inherited his master’s legacy where the word ‘Sword’ was carved into a mountain.
“My Sword Dao can be used with any laws. Different laws will be able to display different facets of my Sword Dao, but the strength varies with the laws as well. For example, my Sword Dao when used with the law of destruction is far superior to when used with the law of earth. Since the law of space you comprehended is one of the Four Supreme Laws and also an offensive law, its offensive power should be similar to the law of destruction when used with my Sword Dao. You can gain insight into my Sword Dao here. Perhaps, you might even be able to come up with your own sword technique here. Each law is different, and my Sword Dao has many styles. It’s up to you now how much you can comprehend. You can stay here as long as you want. Once you’re done, let me know, and I’ll come get you…” As soon as Feng Qing Yang finished speaking, he vanished from the canyon immediately.
Before Feng Qing Yang vanished from sight completely, Duan Ling Tian saw Feng Qing Yang waving his hand once. He knew Feng Qing Yang must have reactivated the Formation again.
“Master’s Sword Dao…” Duan Ling Tian was fascinated by the sword markings around him. Each mark carried a different meaning and a different aura. Some of the auras were terrifying, some were suffocating, and some were violent.
…
After Feng Qing Yang returned to his residence, he sat in front of a stone table as he gazed in the direction of the canyon and murmured to himself, “How much he can comprehend depends on him now. If he’s able to comprehend it and fuse the profundities from the law of space well enough, I might be able to bring him to that place in the Asura Hell. He might be able to have a fortuitous encounter there since I managed to attain godhood in that place.”
