Bang!
A loud explosion reverberated in the air as Bai Yu Hai and Tong Shan's palms collided.
When the two Martial Monarchs' palms collided, a terrifying energy swept out and collided violently. A deafening sound rang in the air and shook the hearts of the people.
In the next moment, an invisible airwave swept out in all directions from the point of collision, turning into a vast gust of wind.
At once, the flowers and trees in the valley were uprooted. It was a wretched sight.
Bai Yu Hai and Tong Shan, the two Martial Monarchs, were in a stalemate. Since their strength was on par with each other, neither of them wanted to give in to the other.
"Tong Shan!"
At this moment, the grey-clad old man spoke, "You should listen to Zuo Yue carefully … What's the use of being so agitated now? Can you avenge your direct disciple? "
Upon hearing this, Tong Shan suppressed his agitated emotions and moved away from Bai Yu Hai.
"Zuo Yue, tell me."
Tong Shan took a deep breath and asked Zuo Yue who was shielded behind Bai Yu Hai.
Seeing that Tong Shan had no intention of attacking him, Zuo Yue could not help but heave a sigh of relief. Then, he recounted some of his experiences, including the deaths of Lei Zhong and Lei Jun.
When Tong Shan learned from Zuo Yue that Lei Jun was also dead, he was even more furious.
Lei Jun was not only the biological brother of his direct disciple, Lei Zhong, but he was also the direct disciple of the Sect Leader of Izumo Sect.
He was the one who brought Lei Jun out. However, now that he had died in Emperor Wu's secret treasure, he did not know how to explain this to the Sect Leader when he returned to Izumo Sect.
Due to his superior status in Izumo Sect, even the Sect Leader of Izumo Sect had to be respectful to him.
This time, even if Lei Jun was dead, the Sect Leader of Izumo Sect would not blame him.
But in his heart, he couldn't get over it.
"They were killed by the same person!"
Just when Tong Shan was about to explode in anger, Zuo Yue spoke again in a clear voice.
"Who?!"
Upon hearing Zuo Yue's words, Tong Shan narrowed his eyes. His eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. His voice was cold as though it came from an ice cave.
"Xu Qing … He was also killed by the same person!"
Zuo Yue did not answer Tong Shan for the time being. Instead, he looked at the grey-clad old man standing at the side. He was the Martial Monarch powerhouse in the North Nether Sect, Feng Tong.
As soon as Zuo Yue's words fell, Feng Tong could no longer calm down. His face changed dramatically, and his anger soared to the sky. "Who is that person?!"
Although Xu Qing wasn't his personal disciple, he was his personal disciple's disciple, his grand-disciple.
His direct disciple was the current Sect Leader of the North Nether Sect.
And now, his grand-disciple had been killed?
"His name is Duan Lingtian!"
Zuo Yue, who had successfully infuriated the two Martial Emperors, said with a cold glint in his eyes.
"Duan Lingtian, as long as you can come out of the 'Secret Treasure of Emperor Wu' alive this time … you will definitely die!"
Zuo Yue swore inwardly.
In his opinion, it was impossible for Duan Lingtian, who was targeted by a Martial Emperor, to survive.
"He's the person who broke into the 'Secret Treasure' of Emperor Wu from another entrance. He's a disciple of the third-rate force, the Five Element Sect, in the eastern district of the northern desert …"
Zuo Yue revealed everything he knew. However, he did not mention the fact that Duan Lingtian had publicly announced his departure from the Five Element Sect.
"Five Element Sect?"
Bai Yu Hai, who was standing at the side, was shocked when he heard this.
Many years ago, a young powerhouse with monstrous innate talent had appeared in the Five Element Sect. Due to this reason, he had heard of the Five Element Sect.
When he learned that the two most outstanding young disciples of Izumo Sect and North Nether Sect had been killed, he no longer blamed his direct disciple, Zuo Yue, for not helping Anicca Sect obtain the Profundity Fragment.
Based on Zuo Yue's words earlier, Duan Lingtian was shocked.
He was lucky to be alive!
At this moment, even though Bai Yu Hai was a Martial Emperor, he could not help but break out in cold sweat for his disciple.
"Duan Lingtian? Five Element Sect? Since you killed my direct disciple, I, Tong Shan, will definitely annihilate your entire sect! "
Tong Shan raised his head abruptly and looked up at the sky as he shouted.
Tong Shan's voice reverberated in the air. A series of majestic sound waves soared into the sky, killing a few unlucky birds that happened to fly by. The birds' corpses fell from the sky.
Although Feng Tong did not roar hysterically like Tong Shan, a cold gleam flashed in the depth of his eyes as if he was about to devour someone.
His hatred for the Five Element Sect's disciple, Duan Lingtian, whom he had never met, was no less than Tong Shan's hatred.
Naturally, Duan Lingtian was unaware of what happened outside Entrance No.1.
Duan Lingtian was also unaware that he had been targeted by two Martial Emperor powerhouses. Both of them had the intention to kill him without exception.
Very soon, Duan Lingtian returned to the vast platform at the end of the stone stairs at the side of the high platform under Entrance No.2. The platform was shrouded in black fog with Illusory Formations hidden inside.
Duan Ling Tian stood on the platform and turned a deaf ear to the Blade Sect's, Empyrean Temple's, and Emotion Severing Sect's disciples who were walking past him. Only when the Five Element Sect's disciples walked past him would a faint smile appear on his face.
"Senior Brother Ling Tian!"
"Senior Brother Ling Tian!"
…
Although Duan Lingtian had announced that he was leaving the Five Element Sect, the Five Element Sect's disciples still treated Duan Lingtian as their Senior Brother and idol.
He had killed the strongest powerhouse among the younger generation in a second-rate force all by himself!
In the history of the Five Element Sect, there had never been such a monster.
Duan Lingtian waited quietly.
Finally, the person he was waiting for appeared.
A figure that looked like a fire elf was the first to appear before him. "Elder Brother Duan."
"Tian Wu."
Upon seeing the person, Duan Lingtian smiled as he greeted her.
The person was none other than Feng Tianwu.
Feng Tianwu's current strength far surpassed Huang Daniu, Su Li, and Zhang Shou Yong. Due to this reason, Duan Lingtian was not surprised that she was the first to appear.
Very soon, Huang Daniu, Su Li, and Zhang Shou Yong walked out of the Illusory Formation one by one and joined up with Duan Lingtian and Feng Tianwu.
"Let's go."
Since everyone was here, Duan Lingtian and the other three did not stay any longer. They climbed up the stone stairs one by one and flew to the top of the high platform at lightning speed.
Soon after, they arrived at the top of the high platform.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Very soon, Duan Lingtian and the other three borrowed the force from the high platform and flew out of the Emperor Wu's secret treasure one by one. They reappeared in the vast valley outside of Entrance No. 2.
The moment Duan Lingtian and the other three appeared, they became the center of attention.
This was especially true for Duan Lingtian.
More than 90% of the gazes were on him.
"Duan Lingtian is out!"
"Among all of us who entered from Entrance No. 2, as far as I know, only Duan Lingtian has obtained the Profundity Fragment!"
"The Five Element Sect is in luck this time."
…
Apart from the Five Element Sect's disciples, the group of disciples from Blade Sect, Empyrean Temple, and Emotion Severing Sect could not help but mutter to themselves when they looked at Duan Lingtian.
Their voices were filled with envy, but none of them were jealous.
This was because they knew that the reason Duan Lingtian was able to obtain and keep the Profundity Fragment was all because of Duan Lingtian's powerful strength.
Otherwise, even if Duan Lingtian was lucky enough to obtain the Profundity Fragment, he would not have been able to keep it.
"Sect Leader, Peak Master."
After Duan Lingtian came out, he was the first to fly out and arrived next to Guo Chong, the Sect Leader of Five Element Sect, and Qi Yu, the Peak Master of Wood Peak. With a raise of his hand, a fragment that was shining with purple energy appeared in his hand.
It was the Third Level Monarch Stage Thunder Profundity Fragment!
This Thunder Profundity Fragment was the Profundity Fragment that Duan Lingtian had obtained from the Sword Monarch's Treasure.
Ever since he obtained the Eighth Level Monarch Stage Profundity Fragment from Peng Bao, this Profundity Fragment was dispensable to him.
Therefore, he decided to give it to the Five Element Sect as a form of repayment for the Five Element Sect's kindness in cultivating him.
"Great, great!"
Under the burning gaze of the other forces' senior officials, Guo Chong took the Concept Fragment from Duan Lingtian and laughed heartily. His laughter came from the bottom of his heart, and it was filled with joy.
As a powerhouse at the peak of the Void, he had comprehended two types of Ninth Level Void Transformation Concepts, and one of them happened to be the Thunder Concept.
In other words, this Thunder Profundity Fragment happened to be of use to him.
With the help of this Thunder Profundity Fragment, it would not take long for him to successfully comprehend the Thunder Profundity and break through to the Martial Monarch Stage to become a Martial Monarch powerhouse!
"Congratulations, Sect Leader."
Qi Feng was the first to congratulate Guo Chong.
"Congratulations, Sect Leader."
At this moment, the other three Peak Masters, including Cha Bai, the Peak Master of Fire Peak, also congratulated Guo Chong one by one.
"Congratulations, Sect Leader."
Subsequently, the group of Five Element Sect's disciples who were lucky enough to survive also congratulated Guo Chong one by one.
"Duan Lingtian, do you really want to leave the Five Element Sect?"
Very soon, Guo Chong put away the Thunder Profundity Fragment in his hand as though he had just obtained a precious treasure. With a solemn expression, he asked Duan Lingtian.
At this moment, the others finally remembered.
Not only did Duan Lingtian obtain a Profundity Fragment from Emperor Wu's secret treasure, but he had also gotten himself into a huge disaster that could be considered as a catastrophe to the third-rate forces that they were in!
Duan Lingtian had killed the two most outstanding young disciples of the second-rate force in the northern desert, Izumo Sect.
The two young disciples of Izumo Sect were undoubtedly the future pillars of the sect.
However, they were killed by Duan Lingtian.
How could Izumo Sect not be angry?
"Yes."
In the face of Guo Chong's question, Duan Lingtian nodded and did not deny it.
Back then, when he admitted that he had killed Lei Jun and Lei Zhong, every young powerhouse present on the scene saw it clearly.
"Duan Lingtian, why don't you reconsider? Who knows, we might be able to come up with another solution. "
Guo Chong said with a frown.
He knew that he could not just let go of a person who had obtained a Profundity Fragment for the sect and made a great contribution to the sect.
"I have an idea."
Qi Feng who was standing by the side replied calmly.
Just when everyone's gaze landed on Qi Feng, Duan Lingtian said with a determined expression, "Sect Leader, Peak Master … I've made up my mind! Let this matter come to an end. "
