"What's impossible about that?"
Duan Lingtian smirked when he heard Zuo Yue's words. "You said it yourself that it's just your guess … If you could guess everything correctly, you wouldn't be as useless as you are now."
Useless!
Duan Lingtian's words clearly entered Zuo Yue's ears, causing his expression to turn grave. He did not know what to say at that moment.
Although he was unwilling to admit it, he had to admit it.
Compared to Duan Ling Tian, he could indeed be considered as trash.
A complacent smile appeared on the corners of Duan Ling Tian's mouth when he saw this.
He swore on the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation that he would be killed by the lightning punishment if he managed to obtain the three Profundity Fragments from Qing Feng Emperor Wu's body.
The Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation let out nine claps of thunder in response to his oath, but the lightning punishment did not descend.
Therefore, from an outsider's perspective, he did not see Qing Feng Emperor Wu's body even if he managed to ascend to the fifth level of Qing Feng Palace.
Otherwise, why would he dare to swear on the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation? Why would he say he did not obtain the three Profundity Fragments from Qing Feng Emperor Wu's body?
Nobody knew.
The reason Duan Lingtian dared to swear on the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation was not because he did not see Qing Feng Emperor Wu's body.
It was the opposite.
Not only did he see Qing Feng Emperor Wu's body, but he even obtained the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment from Qing Feng Emperor Wu's body.
The reason he dared to make that oath using the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation and didn't trigger the lightning punishment or even get killed by the lightning punishment was because he didn't violate the oath.
He swore that as long as he obtained the three Profundity Fragments from Martial Emperor Qing Feng's body, he would be willing to be killed by the thunder punishment.
However, although he obtained the Profundity Fragments from Qing Feng Emperor Wu's body, he did not obtain the three Profundity Fragments. There was only one Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment.
As for the other two Monarch Stage Profundity Fragments, even he did not know who had them.
Because of this, he did not break his oath.
He didn't get three Profundity Fragments. He only got one.
Just now, Duan Lingtian was playing a word game with the three from Anicca Sect. The three from Anicca Sect did not notice anything and believed Duan Lingtian's words.
"Even if that's the case, you should still have a Profundity Fragment with you!"
Zuo Yue gritted his teeth as he looked at Duan Lingtian unwillingly.
"Idiot!"
Ignoring Zuo Yue's increasingly ugly expression, Duan Lingtian spat out two words without hesitation.
After Zuo Yue was so angry that his body began to tremble violently, he continued to say, "Do you think that all the Profundity Fragments that I obtained after entering the Emperor Wu's secret treasure belong to me?"
At this point, Duan Lingtian looked at the old man standing in front of Zuo Yue. He was the Supreme Elder of Anicca Sect, Bai Yuhai.
Just as he was about to say something, another voice descended from the sky, interrupting him just as he was about to speak.
"Do you dare to swear … that you didn't obtain the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment?"
A loud and clear voice descended from the sky. Two figures appeared almost at the same time and arrived near Duan Ling Tian in just a short moment. The person following behind stared at Duan Ling Tian like a tiger eyeing its prey.
The voice just now was from his mouth.
It was a middle-aged man in his fifties. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's.
However, his appearance did not attract Duan Lingtian's attention.
Duan Lingtian's attention was completely focused on the old man standing in front of the middle-aged man.
The old man was dressed in gray and exuded an extremely sharp aura from his body.
The feeling he gave Duan Lingtian was exactly the same as the feeling Tong Shan and Bai Yuhai gave him. He was not simple and gave him an invisible pressure.
An ordinary martial artist would not be able to give him this kind of pressure.
"Martial Monarch powerhouse!"
Duan Lingtian's eyes narrowed and his heart skipped a beat. "Could it be that person from North Nether Sect?"
North Nether Sect was a second-rate force in the northern desert like Izumo Sect and Anicca Sect. There was also a Martial Monarch powerhouse in the sect.
When Duan Ling Tian left the Five Element Sect and made his way to the Martial Emperor's secret treasure, he had heard about the Martial Monarch powerhouse from some of the Five Element Sect's disciples.
The strongest person in North Nether Sect, the Martial Monarch powerhouse.
Feng Tong!
"Feng Tong?"
As soon as the grey-clad old man appeared, Duan Lingtian heard Bai Yuhai, the Martial Monarch powerhouse from Anicca Sect, greeting the grey-clad old man in surprise.
At once, Duan Lingtian realized he had guessed correctly.
The person who appeared before him was none other than Feng Tong, the pillar and guardian of North Nether Sect.
"Two Martial Monarch powerhouses …"
Unknowingly, a wisp of indescribable bitterness appeared on the corners of Duan Ling Tian's mouth.
Bai Yuhai, the Martial Monarch powerhouse from Anicca Sect, was already a headache for him.
Now, Feng Tong, who was even more difficult to deal with, had appeared.
Bai Yuhai was still fine. He was instigated by his direct disciple, Zuo Yue, to look for him for the Profundity Fragment that he obtained from Emperor Wu's body in Qing Feng.
However, after he swore on the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, he noticed that Bai Yuhai's hostility toward him had lessened.
Feng Tong, on the other hand, did not come for the three Profundity Fragments that might be in his possession. Instead, he came to kill him to avenge Xu Qing.
Xu Qing was the strongest person among the younger generation in North Nether Sect. He was also the direct disciple of the Sect Leader of North Nether Sect.
When they were on the fourth level of Qing Feng Palace in the Martial Emperor's secret treasure, Xu Qing had attacked him mercilessly because of his greed to kill him and seize his treasures.
In the end, he was killed by Xu Qing after he had made a breakthrough.
Only he and Zuo Yue knew about Xu Qing's death.
If Zuo Yue was dead, nobody would know that he was the one who killed Xu Qing.
However, Duan Lingtian had suffered internal injuries at the critical moment. This gave Zuo Yue the opportunity to escape before he could recover. That was the root of the problem.
Now, the root of the problem was exposed one by one. Duan Lingtian was exhausted from dealing with it.
"You're Duan Lingtian?"
Feng Tong's cloudy eyes suddenly turned piercing as he stared intently at Duan Ling Tian. He enunciated each word clearly as he asked.
At the same time, an aura as sharp as a sword swept out from his body toward Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian did not feel any pressure when he faced Tong Shan's aura earlier.
But now, facing the aura from Feng Tong's body, he felt a trace of pressure.
Naturally, Duan Lingtian knew this did not mean Feng Tong was stronger than Tong Shan. It was just that Feng Tong was better at this.
Duan Lingtian did not reply to Feng Tong's question. He only looked at Feng Tong with a fearful expression on his face.
He could clearly see the killing intent that flashed in the depth of Feng Tong's eyes.
He knew Feng Tong wanted to kill him. He could not wait to kill him.
For a moment, Duan Lingtian felt anxious and uneasy.
"Duan Lingtian, make another oath … As long as you swear on the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation that you didn't obtain the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment, I'll kill you. If you don't die, I won't make things difficult for you anymore. "
Bai Yu Hai glanced at Duan Lingtian indifferently and said slowly.
He was inspired by the North Nether Sect's middle-aged elder to add such a sentence. He wanted to force Duan Lingtian into a corner so Duan Lingtian had no other choice.
Upon hearing this, Duan Lingtian's expression changed subtly.
At this moment, he realized something.
Even if he did not admit that he had obtained the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment, there was no turning back now.
Bai Yu Hai had come looking for him because he coveted the treasure in his possession.
Feng Tong's main goal was to avenge Xu Qing.
Even if Bai Yu Hai did not make a move, Feng Tong alone was enough to kill him.
"That's right! I did obtain the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment. "
Due to this reason, Duan Lingtian did not hesitate to admit it.
As he admitted it, he immediately looked at Feng Tong.
To be more precise, he looked at Feng Tong's eyes and carefully observed the changes in Feng Tong's gaze.
When he saw the greedy gleam in the depth of Feng Tong's eyes, he could not help but sigh in relief.
Perhaps, this was a turning point for him.
Based on the current situation, this was the only turning point.
The Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment!
The moment Duan Lingtian's words left his mouth, the eyes of the three people from Anicca Sect, led by Supreme Elder Bai Yu Hai, lit up.
When they looked at Duan Lingtian again, it was as though they had seen a rare treasure.
"Humph! It seems like I was right. You really did obtain the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment, "Zuo Yue said coldly.
When he looked at Duan Lingtian, he had a 'I've seen through you' expression on his face. Based on his words, it was as though he was bragging about his ability to predict the future.
At the same time, two terrifying killing intents flashed and swept toward Duan Lingtian. They were filled with extreme coldness.
When Duan Lingtian regained his senses, he realized the two terrifying killing intents came from the two Martial Monarch powerhouses, Bai Yu Hai and Feng Tong. Both of them wanted to kill him.
Let alone two First Level Martial Monarch Stage martial artists, even a Ninth Level Martial Monarch Stage powerhouse would be interested in the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment.
However, at this moment, none of them made a move. They were in a stalemate for the time being.
In their opinion.
There was no doubt that the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment in Duan Lingtian's hand was already theirs.
What they had to consider now was how to suppress each other and obtain the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment.
They had been rivals for many years, and they knew each other very well. This was the reason why they hesitated for a long time without making a move.
"Feng Tong, aren't you looking for him to avenge Xu Qing? I can give you his life … As for the other things in his hand, I'll take them. "
Bai Yu Hai's eyes gleamed as he said to Feng Tong.
"Bai Yu Hai … If you think his life is more valuable than the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment, then I can give you his life, and the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment will belong to me."
Feng Tong's words made his stance clear.
