"Hmm?"
Tong Shan raised his eyebrows and turned his head around. His gaze swept across the Five Element Sect's upper echelons one by one as though he was trying to find out who had warned him via voice transmission earlier.
When they saw Tong Shan's sharp gaze sweeping towards them, the faces of the Five Element Sect's upper echelons, including Tian Gu and Yu Fang, turned solemn.
Only Cha Bai, the Peak Master of Fire Peak, remained calm. His eyes were filled with coldness.
"Senior Tong Shan, after Duan Lingtian left the Emperor Wu's secret treasure, he didn't return to our Five Element Sect … He must have returned to his hometown, the Darkhan Dynasty."
The one who sent the voice transmission to Tong Shan was none other than Cha Bai.
At this moment, Cha Bai continued to speak to Tong Shan through Voice Transmission, "As for the location of the Darkhan Dynasty, Senior, you can go to the Blade Sect in the Southern of the Northern Desert and ask around."
"I think … Blade Sect will give you a satisfactory answer."
Cha Bai finished his sentence in one breath.
Tong Shan gave Cha Bai a deep look that was hard to notice, "You're not bad at all... If the Duan Lingtian is killed in the future, I, Tong Shan, will owe you a favor."
Upon hearing this, Cha Bai's eyes lit up immediately.
Had a Martial Emperor promised him a favor?
For a time, his heart was filled with excitement and joy, and the resentment he had towards Duan Lingtian from the death of his personal disciple seemed to have been completely thrown to the back of his mind at this moment.
If he wasn't worried that the other higher-ups of the Five Element Sect would notice the clues, he would have long since been unable to restrain himself from cheering excitedly.
"Thank you, Senior."
Cha Bai secretly took a deep breath. He tried his best to maintain a calm expression on his face as he sent a voice transmission to Tong Shan to express his gratitude.
Tong Shan glanced at the Five Element Sect's upper echelons coldly again before he left with the other three and disappeared before the Five Element Sect's upper echelons.
Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
When the Five Element Sect's higher-ups saw that Tong Shan had left with his men, their tensed minds relaxed, and they couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
"As expected of a Martial Emperor … Just the aura that you're exuding is so oppressive that I can't breathe."
Tian Gu sighed.
"That's right … Martial Emperors are too powerful."
"I wonder if I'll have the chance to break through to the Martial Monarch Stage in my lifetime," Yu Fang muttered to herself with a face full of anticipation, "I wonder if I'll be able to break through to the Martial Monarch Stage in my lifetime."
"When the Sect Leader and Peak Master Qi Yu return, our Five Element Sect will have two Martial Monarch powerhouses! At that time, our Five Element Sect will become the fourth second-rate force in the northern desert! "
Nobody knew who said this, but it immediately lit up the eyes of all the senior officials of the Five Element Sect other than Cha Bai. Their eyes were filled with anticipation.
"Duan Lingtian … this time, you will die without a doubt!"
Cha Bai's eyes shone with a cold gleam.
A sinister smile appeared on his face. It was as though he could already see Duan Lingtian being killed by Tong Shan, the Martial Monarch powerhouse from Izumo Sect.
Duan Lingtian naturally did not know what had happened in the Five Elements Sect.
He also did not know that under Cha Bai's guidance, Tong Shan had already made his way to the Blade Sect in the Southern of the Northern Desert to inquire about the whereabouts of the Darkhan Dynasty.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian had just left the Seven Star Sword Sect and met up with a fiery red silhouette that was hidden in the sky above the Seven Star Sword Sect.
"Elder Brother Duan, have you found him?"
The owner of the fiery red silhouette was a red-clad lady with a graceful figure and a face that could topple a nation. Every frown and smile of hers seemed to be able to turn the world upside down.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded his head. At this moment, he was still thinking about the Foreign Lands force that his two fiancées were in.
Snow Peak! Volcano!
This was the only clue that he had at the moment.
"Tian Wu, let's go! Let's go look for Xiong Quan. "
After regaining his senses, Duan Lingtian called out to the lady and took the lead to fly out.
Feng Tianwu's figure that was like a fire elf followed closely behind like a shadow.
Duan Lingtian's figure flashed like lightning. However, before he could speed up, he could not help but frown. He looked at the sky behind the clouds in the distance as though he had noticed something.
"There's someone over there."
Soon after, Feng Tianwu also heard the sound of wind whistling that was rapidly flying towards them. Someone was flying in the sky, and his target was the Seven Star Sword Sect that was behind them.
Whoosh!
Soon after, the clouds in front of them dispersed, and a figure that was as fast as lightning appeared before Duan Lingtian and Feng Tianwu's eyes.
The figure that was as fast as lightning suddenly came to a halt when he was not far away from Duan Lingtian and Feng Tianwu.
"Ahhh!!"
When the person's gaze landed on Duan Lingtian, his scarlet eyes flashed. Subsequently, he stretched out his hands and hugged his head as he screamed in pain.
"How's this possible?!"
When the figure before them stopped, Duan Lingtian stopped as well. His face was covered in disbelief as he looked at the figure that was completely enveloped in strands of black mist.
No matter what, he never imagined that he would be able to see this person here!
"Elder Brother Duan, you know him?"
At this moment, Feng Tianwu who followed Duan Lingtian to stop just happened to see the astonishment and disbelief on Duan Lingtian's face, and she could not help but ask curiously.
However, Duan Lingtian did not answer her. His gaze stared straight at the figure that was enveloped in black mist. It was an old man with scarlet eyes.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian's breathing could not help but become hurried. The scene before his eyes gave him too great of a shock!
"Shouldn't he be fending for himself in that Inscription Formation?"
"Wasn't his Dantian destroyed by me?"
And his four limbs … They should have been crippled by me as well. Correct! "
Numerous questions arose in Duan Lingtian's heart.
The person that appeared before him was none other than Zhao Ming!
Zhao Ming was one of the two Guardian Elders of the Seven Star Sword Sect in the past, and he was called Elder Ming.
All those years ago, when the Seven Star Sword Sect was annihilated, he betrayed the Seven Star Sword Sect and joined the Azure Forest Tri-Sect to become a Guardian Elder of the Azure Forest Tri-Sect.
Later on, he wanted to kill Duan Lingtian even more, yet he was instead tricked by Duan Lingtian into entering an Inscription Formation in the Darkstone Empire and was trapped within it.
After the Dynasty Martial Competition ended, Duan Lingtian's strength increased greatly and far surpassed Zhao Ming.
After he entered the Inscription Formation once more and killed the other elder of the Azure Forest Tri-Sect, he crippled Zhao Ming's Dantian and crippled Zhao Ming's four limbs.
At that time, when he left the Inscription Formation, he thought that Zhao Ming would spend the rest of his life in terror that was worse than death.
But never had he imagined that he would encounter Zhao Ming here today!
Moreover, the current Zhao Ming seemed to be completely different from before.
Zhao Ming gave him an extremely dangerous feeling.
"Isn't this Zhao Ming supposed to be a cripple? How could he possibly appear here? Moreover, he seems to possess a formidable strength. "
Duan Lingtian's expression was slightly unsightly, and his Spiritual Force stretched out with the intention of detecting Zhao Ming's cultivation.
However, he quickly noticed.
When his Spiritual Force approached the black mist that suffused the surface of Zhao Ming's body, it seemed as if it had entered into a ball of cotton and completely vanished, and he was utterly unable to detect Zhao Ming's cultivation.
"With my current Spiritual Force, I'm even able to detect the cultivation of a ninth level Void Transformation Stage martial artist! However, I can't detect Zhao Ming's cultivation with my spiritual power. "
Duan Lingtian's expression became even more unsightly.
At the same time, a bad premonition arose in his heart.
"Could it be that he isn't Zhao Ming? Instead, it's a person that looks exactly like Zhao Ming? "
In next to no time, a fluke thought suddenly arose in Duan Lingtian's heart.
But this thought had only just arisen when it was mercilessly crushed by the old man that stood nearby.
"Duan … Duan Lingtian … I remember now! You're Duan Lingtian! You're Duan Lingtian!! "
The scarlet red eyes of the old man in the distance that were originally dim instantly had a bit of brilliance, and it seemed as if it was filled with life. After that, he stared at Duan Lingtian and gnashed his teeth as he roared.
"It's really Zhao Ming!"
Duan Lingtian's heart jerked when he saw the savage and hatred revealed on the old man's face, and his expression completely sank.
"Hahahaha … Duan Lingtian, I've finally found you! Today, not only will I kill you, I'll even annihilate the Seven Star Sword Sect that you rebuilt! "
Presently, Zhao Ming had recovered his senses from his initial daze, and he looked at Duan Lingtian as he laughed wildly, and his laughter was filled with ruthlessness and hatred.
"Zhao Ming, I never expected that you're still alive."
Duan Lingtian's eyes flickered with cold lights as he spoke in a low voice.
"You naturally want me to die … But unfortunately, you weren't able to kill me! You didn't kill me that day, but I'll kill you today. Remember this properly on the road to hell, if you don't pull out the roots, it'll grow again when the spring breeze blows! "
As Zhao Ming finished speaking, he actually started to educate Duan Lingtian.
"I was able to cripple you that day, and I can kill you today as well!"
Duan Lingtian spoke coldly.
He was extremely confident towards his current strength.
Although he was unable to see through how strong Zhao Ming's current cultivation was, as far as he was concerned, it ought to be impossible for Zhao Ming to defeat him.
After all, when Zhao Ming's Dantian and limbs were crippled by him, Zhao Ming was only a Void Initiation Stage martial artist.
Now, only a little over a year had passed since he crippled Zhao Ming that day.
As far as he was concerned.
In merely a little over a year, even if Zhao Ming had a fortuitous encounter, it was still impossible for Zhao Ming to defeat him!
"Is that so?"
Zhao Ming laughed when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. His laughter was filled with arrogance. "Duan Lingtian, I won't be in a hurry to kill you today! I'll let you have a good taste of despair just like what you did to me last time. "
Amidst his laughter, the black fog around Zhao Ming's body fluctuated, emitting waves of terrifying aura.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
Subsequently, when the black fog around Zhao Ming's body fluctuated, the airflow in the air was compressed, setting off waves of thunderous air explosions that shook the hearts of people.
"What a powerful strength!"
Duan Lingtian's expression changed. Feng Tianwu's beautiful face, who stood by his side, also changed slightly.
Whoosh!
At the same time, the Heaven and Earth Energy above Zhao Ming's head stirred and finally gathered into the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon.
Silhouettes of ancient horned dragons appeared before Duan Lingtian and Feng Tianwu's eyes one after another, and the number continued to increase.
One hundred.
Two hundred.
Three hundred.
…
One thousand.
It was still increasing.
"The strength of three thousand ancient horned dragons?"
