The sudden voice caused Duan Lingtian's expression to change instantly.
Even if it was Feng Tian Wu, her extremely beautiful face that could be said to be capable of causing the downfall of nations, couldn't help but slightly change color at this moment.
"This voice sounds familiar … Who is it?"
Duan Lingtian shook his head and looked at the sky where the voice came from. His brows were tightly knitted together. He could not recall where he had heard this voice before.
When Duan Lingtian saw three figures appearing out of thin air in the sky, his face turned completely grave when his eyes landed on one of the two people behind them.
"Zuo Yue!"
At this moment, it seemed as though only the young man in the distance remained in the world in Duan Ling Tian's eyes, the young man that had once fled under his nose.
The strongest person among the young generation in Anicca Sect, Zuo Yue!
He still remembered.
After entering the fourth level of Qing Feng Palace left behind by Emperor Wu's secret treasure, he, Zuo Yue, and the strongest person among the young generation in North Nether Sect, Xu Qing, had successfully passed the test and entered the central area of the fourth level.
In the beginning, Zuo Yue and Xu Qing had joined forces to kill him.
When his life was in danger, he unintentionally activated the Inscription Formation on the fourth level. After successfully distracting the two of them, he was lucky enough to survive.
After he survived, he consumed a spirit fruit that was a reward for passing the test on the fourth level before Zuo Yue and Xu Qing discovered him. His cultivation base successfully broke through.
After his cultivation base broke through, he killed Xu Qing who wanted to kill him and steal the spirit fruit in just one blow.
Just when he was about to continue to kill Zuo Yue, the Origin Energy in his body was in a mess due to his cultivation base breaking through again. It caused him to suffer quite a lot of internal injuries, and he could not chase after Zuo Yue at that moment.
Zuo Yue, who was supposed to die in his hands, managed to survive because of this.
After Zuo Yue escaped, Duan Lingtian knew that he would be a huge trouble!
This was because not only would Zuo Yue spread the news that he had killed Xu Qing, but he would also spread the news that he was the only one who could ascend to the fifth level of Qing Feng Palace and obtain the Profundity Fragment in Martial Emperor Qing Feng's body.
"He's finally here."
Therefore, Duan Lingtian knew that what he was worried about was happening when he saw Zuo Yue following behind a mysterious old man.
"This old man's strength is probably not inferior to Tong Shan!"
Tong Shan was the one and only Martial Monarch powerhouse in Izumo Sect whom he had just killed with the last talisman left behind by his cheapskate father.
"He … He should be the Martial Monarch powerhouse from Anicca Sect! Zuo Yue's master. "
Duan Lingtian tried his best to maintain a calm expression, but he couldn't help but feel a wave of shock in his heart.
In front of Tong Shan, he was able to remain calm because he knew what he was doing.
He had the talisman left behind by his cheapskate father, so it was not difficult for him to kill Tong Shan. The difficult part was creating an atmosphere that could scare away the three Anicca Sect elders behind Tong Shan.
Now that he had made up his mind, he was neither servile nor overbearing in front of a Martial Monarch powerhouse like Tong Shan.
This was also the reason why he was able to remain calm on the outside and on the inside when he saw Tong Shan appear and guessed his identity.
However, it was different now.
"I'm afraid they heard what I said to Tian Wu just now."
Duan Lingtian still remembered.
After he told Feng Tianwu that he had used the last talisman in his possession to kill Tong Shan, Zuo Yue's voice resonated in the air.
It was obvious that he had heard what Duan Lingtian said.
Duan Lingtian's heart sank when he realized this.
He was not afraid of a Martial Monarch powerhouse when he had the talisman in his possession.
However, the problem was that he had used up all the talismans in his possession. He could no longer rely on talismans to fight a Martial Monarch powerhouse. He could only rely on his own strength.
Although he was quite strong now, his strength was equivalent to the strength of 3,500 ancient horned dragons after he used the Quasi Royal Grade Spirit Sword and unleashed his full strength.
His strength was nothing in front of a Martial Monarch powerhouse who could easily unleash the strength of 6,000 to 7,000 ancient horned dragons.
"Supreme Elder, he's Duan Lingtian! The person who killed Lei Zhong and Xu Qing. "
Zuo Yue said respectfully to the old man in front of him.
The old man was dressed in white. His face was cold, and there was no emotion in his eyes. A rare gleam flashed in the depth of his eyes when he heard Zuo Yue's words.
"You're Duan Lingtian? The lucky guy who obtained three Profundity Fragments from Emperor Wu's body in Emperor Wu's secret treasure? "
The old man asked calmly as he stared at Duan Lingtian calmly.
"Yes, I'm Duan Lingtian … However, it seems a little arbitrary to say that I obtained three Profundity Fragments from Emperor Wu's body in Emperor Wu's secret treasure."
Duan Ling Tian looked at the old man fearlessly and calmly responded to the old man.
"Duan Lingtian, stop playing dumb!"
Before the old man could speak, Zuo Yue said sarcastically, "You, me, and Xu Qing were the only three people who managed to reach the fourth level of Qing Feng Palace and pass the Bumpy Road."
"You killed Xu Qing, and I left first … You were the only one left in Qing Feng Palace's fourth level who had the chance to go to the fifth level! Who else could it be but you who obtained the three Profundity Fragments from Emperor Wu's body? "
Zuo Yue sneered.
Left first?
Duan Lingtian's face turned a little strange when he heard Zuo Yue's words.
He still remembered.
At that time, Zuo Yue was obviously afraid of being killed by him. That was why he fled right under his nose.
However, now that Zuo Yue said it, he was the one who left first?
"Zuo Yue, I know you're jealous that I'm more powerful than you after I killed Lei Zhong … Not only that, but you also want the Profundity Fragment that I obtained from the outer ring of Emperor Wu's secret treasure."
Duan Lingtian looked at Zuo Yue calmly and said nonchalantly, "However, don't you think it's a little too much for you to fabricate facts and slander me just for your own selfish desires?"
"Y-You're saying that I'm slandering you?"
Duan Lingtian's words angered Zuo Yue so much that his face turned green and white. It took him a long time to calm down.
"Isn't that the case?"
Duan Lingtian did not plan to let Zuo Yue go when he saw his expression turning grave. He sneered and said, "Did you see me reach the fifth level of Qing Feng Palace with your own eyes? Did you see me obtain the three Profundity Fragments from Emperor Wu's body with your own eyes? "
Duan Lingtian's repeated questions made Zuo Yue speechless. He did not know how to answer.
"What? Are you in the wrong? "
Duan Lingtian said with a mocking smile when he saw Zuo Yue opening his mouth but no words came out. "Zuo Yue, I must say that you're really capable!"
"Because of the enmity between us, you didn't hesitate to slander me and even used your master, the Martial Monarch powerhouse from your Anicca Sect, as a tool to get back at me."
Duan Lingtian enunciated each and every word that came out of his mouth. Zuo Yue was so angry that his face turned extremely grave.
The moment Duan Lingtian's words left his mouth, not only the old man in front of Zuo Yue but also the middle-aged man next to him turned to look at Zuo Yue instinctively.
"Master, don't listen to Duan Lingtian's nonsense!"
Zuo Yue's expression changed dramatically when he saw the old man looking at him. He said in a panic, "I'm telling the truth."
"At that time, he was indeed the only one who had the opportunity to go to the fifth floor and see the body of Qing Feng Emperor Wu and obtain the three Profundity Fragments in his body."
Zuo Yue was really afraid that his master would believe Duan Lingtian's words and misunderstand him.
"You've said so much, but it turns out that everything you said is just your personal guess."
Duan Lingtian sneered.
"I admit that the rest is just my personal guess … However, you can't deny that I left Qing Feng Palace after you killed Xu Qing and continued to stay on the fourth floor of Qing Feng Palace!"
When Zuo Yue saw the old man, who was his master, nodding at him, the haze in his heart was swept away. He looked at Duan Lingtian fearlessly and said word by word in a deep voice.
"Why should I deny what I've done?"
Duan Lingtian said nonchalantly, "As for why you said you left, it seems a little far-fetched, don't you think? Are you sure that you left because you gave up the opportunity to explore the fifth floor of Qing Feng Palace? "
When Zuo Yue's face turned pale, Duan Lingtian did not plan to let him go. He completely tore off the last piece of cloth on him. "Why do I remember that … someone was fleeing in front of me at that time?"
"Hmph! Don't try to change the topic. The three Profundity Fragments in the Martial Emperor's body must have ended up in your hands in the end. "
Zuo Yue took a deep breath and suppressed his restless emotions before he snorted coldly.
"Are you so sure?"
Duan Lingtian felt chills running down his spine when he saw the Martial Monarch powerhouse from Anicca Sect and another middle-aged man who seemed to be an elder from Anicca Sect looking at him together. However, he still tried to remain calm on the surface.
"Of course!"
Zuo Yue replied without any hesitation.
"What if I swear by the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation … that I didn't obtain the three Profundity Fragments in Emperor Wu's body?"
Duan Lingtian asked back.
"Do you dare?!"
Zuo Yue said disdainfully with an arrogant look on his face.
However, he was dumbfounded in the next moment.
This was because he saw it.
Duan Lingtian actually broke his finger and used his blood to communicate with the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation to swear that he did not obtain the three Profundity Fragments in Emperor Wu's body.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
Nine deafening claps of thunder resonated one after another. It clearly entered the ears of Duan Lingtian, Feng Tianwu, the three people from Anicca Sect, and everyone in the Imperial Palace.
After the nine claps of thunder, everything returned to normal.
The lightning punishment did not descend as expected.
"How's this possible?!"
