After the old man appeared, he did not even greet Duan Lingtian. Instead, he pounced on him ruthlessly. It was obvious he wanted to kill Duan Lingtian in one hit.
The seven-foot-long spear in his hand was shooting out a spear ray that was several feet long. It caused the air to tremble as though it could pierce through everything.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
As the sound of air exploding reverberated in the air, the spear ray that was several feet long appeared in front of Duan Lingtian in just a blink of an eye. It looked like it was going to pierce through Duan Lingtian's body.
"Oh no!"
The moment the old man struck with his spear, Duan Lingtian had already regained his senses.
However, before he could react, the spear ray that shot out from the old man's seven-foot-long spear had already arrived in front of him. It was only a foot away from him.
He had no time to dodge at all.
Bang!
A loud bang reverberated in the air, accompanied by a rolling shockwave that swept out in all directions. The top and the surroundings were still fine, but the sea below was turbulent.
The originally calm sea seemed to have been smashed by a huge rock. Waves splashed up and shot up into the sky. It was a beautiful sight against the scorching sun.
However, regardless of whether it was Duan Lingtian or the old man who suddenly appeared, they were not in the mood to watch this.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian was sent flying by a stone tablet like an arrow that was shot out from a bow.
The moment the stone tablet landed on his body, a terrifying energy passed through the stone tablet and landed on his body. It caused his lungs to tremble, and he felt intense pain all over his body.
If it was not for his strong will, he would have fainted.
Duan Lingtian who was sent flying spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood finally caught his breath. He immediately took out a Royal Grade Resurrection Pill and consumed it.
The pill's effect dissipated, and his injuries started to heal.
However, due to the severity of his injuries, he could not fully recover even after consuming the Royal Grade Resurrection Pill.
"At this speed … I'll need at least 30 breaths to fully recover! I'll have to stall for time. "
Duan Ling Tian's thoughts spun as he made his decision.
"Thanks to you."
Duan Lingtian's gaze quickly landed on the Devilseal Tablet that flew out with him.
Earlier, it was he who had taken out the Devilseal Tablet in time and allowed it to block the spear for him.
If not for that, he would have been killed.
After flying for some distance, Duan Lingtian finally came to a halt. He looked at the old figure who caught up with him immediately and mocked, "The Second Island Master of the Hidden Fog Island sneakily attacked a nobody like me … Don't you think it's embarrassing?"
"As long as I can kill you and avenge my son … so what if I become the laughingstock of the world?"
The old man who sneaked an attack on Duan Lingtian was the Second Island Master of Hidden Fog Island, Chen Bei.
Ever since Tang Zhen, the First Island Master of the Hidden Fog Island, had led the people back to the Hidden Fog Island, Chen Bei had wanted to kill Duan Lingtian to avenge his son. He thought the First Island Master would not interfere at that time.
However, he did not expect Duan Lingtian to stay on Half Moon Island.
Moreover, he heard that there was a mysterious young lady by Duan Lingtian's side who could kill the First Island Master of Coral Island with a piece of yellow paper that was filled with scribbles.
The First Island Master of Coral Island's ability was on par with the First Island Master of Hidden Fog Island.
At that moment, he felt the pressure.
However, he still came to Half Moon Island.
He had arrived at Half Moon Island a few days ago. Today, he finally found a chance to ensure that the young lady by Duan Lingtian's side would not appear.
"I didn't expect you to have a defensive spirit weapon. You're lucky! But next time, your luck won't be so good. "
Chen Bei sneered.
"Chen Bei, do you know why I killed your son?"
Duan Lingtian asked in a deep voice.
He needed time to recover from his injuries. Otherwise, he would not be a match for Chen Bei.
Chen Bei, the Second Island Master of Hidden Fog Island, was on Emperor Wu Stage Eighth Level.
Although his ability had improved by leaps and bounds in the past six months to the point that even Han Xuenai was shocked, it was impossible for him to fight Chen Bei with his injured body.
"I don't care why you killed my son … Today will be the day you, Duan Lingtian, die!"
A cold gleam flashed across Chen Bei's eyes. He shook the seven-foot long spear in his hand and a terrifying Origin Energy swept out. Along with the skyrocketing Profundity Energy, it caused the air to tremble.
The movement of the spear shook the air. It was like a stone falling into a calm lake, setting off circles of ripples.
'How powerful!'
Upon seeing that, Duan Lingtian was secretly shocked. 'As expected of the Second Island Master of Hidden Fog Island … Chen Bei's ability is top-notch even among the Eighth Level Emperor Wu Stage martial artists.'
Although the Heaven and Earth Energy would no longer consolidate into the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon after leaving Cloud Continent,
Duan Lingtian could faintly sense how terrifying Chen Bei's ability was.
"Chen Bei, before your son died, he told me something … Do you want to know?"
Duan Lingtian gasped inwardly when he saw Chen Bei was about to attack. However, he maintained a calm expression on his face as he spoke slowly.
It was Duan Lingtian's calmness that stopped Chen Bei from attacking.
"What is it?"
The cold gleam in Chen Bei's eyes remained. He raised his eyebrows and asked in a deep voice.
"Chen Bei, you should at least show some sincerity if you want to know your son's last words, right? You look like you're about to kill me. I'm so scared that I can't even remember what your son said. "
Duan Lingtian glanced at the seven-foot long spear in Chen Bei's hand and said.
"Why? Are you trying to stall for time? "
Chen Bei smirked. "It's useless … Even if you release the Communication Jade Slip and I can't catch up with it, I'm confident I can kill you before that little girl arrives!"
"Stall for time? Communication Jade Slip? "
Duan Lingtian shook his head. "Chen Bei, I have to say that your imagination is really rich … Do you think I don't know what you're talking about?"
"Spit it out if you have something to say!"
Chen Bei snorted.
His eyes stared deadly at Duan Lingtian. "Don't play tricks in front of me … If you do anything, I'll kill you in an instant."
"I believe you have the ability … However, you should at least give me some time to think about it, right?"
Duan Lingtian said nonchalantly.
Currently, ten breaths had passed.
The injuries in his body had healed by one-third. The Royal Grade Resurrection Pill's medicinal effect was still spreading and healing the injuries in his body.
His injuries were recovering at an extremely fast speed.
He still needed close to twenty breaths to recover to his prime.
The surface of the sea that was initially turbulent gradually regained its calm.
High up in the sky, Duan Ling Tian stood there quietly with a slight frown on his face. He seemed to be thinking about something … Meanwhile, Chen Bei who was standing opposite him was glaring at him. He was afraid Duan Ling Tian would play some trick on him.
Chen Bei held the seven-foot long spear tightly in his hand. Faint Origin Energy was about to burst out.
If anything went wrong, he would instantly unleash his full force to kill Duan Lingtian.
"My patience is limited."
Another ten breaths passed. Chen Bei's face turned grave as he said coldly.
"Wait a little longer …"
Duan Lingtian's frown deepened. He could not be bothered with Chen Bei's gloomy expression.
His injuries were only a little bit away from being healed.
Once he was fully healed, he would have the strength to fight with Chen Bei!
In the past six months, his strength had improved in all aspects. He wanted to see how much his strength had improved.
He treated Chen Bei as his touchstone.
The last ten breaths passed in the blink of an eye. Duan Lingtian could clearly feel that the injuries in his body had completely healed … At this moment, he only felt that his entire body was filled with strength.
"You tricked me!"
Chen Bei's expression changed drastically when he saw Duan Lingtian relaxing his frown and a smile appearing on his face. In a fit of rage, the Origin Energy in his hand skyrocketed. Along with various Profundities, it merged into the seven-foot long spear.
At once, the seven-foot long spear trembled. A powerful energy spread out as though it could destroy everything.
Whoosh!
Faced with the enraged Chen Bei, a bow and arrow appeared in Duan Lingtian's hand out of thin air. He placed the arrow on the bowstring and pulled the bowstring into a full moon before shooting the arrow out.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
When Chen Bei's long spear trembled and tore through the sky, the spear ray that was several tens of feet long pierced towards the place where Duan Lingtian was standing. However, Duan Lingtian had already dodged it.
Body and Arrow Synchronization!
Stepping on the rapidly shooting arrow, Duan Lingtian dodged Chen Bei's furious attack.
However, his crisis was not over yet.
He could hear the sound of the wind whistling behind him. Without turning his head, he could tell that Chen Bei had caught up with him. However, Chen Bei's speed was only on par with his.
It was impossible for him to catch up with him.
"How's this possible?!"
Chen Bei who was chasing Duan Lingtian at full speed had a drastic change of expression when he realized this. Disbelief filled his eyes. "How can his speed be so fast?!"
"Nothing's impossible."
Naturally, Duan Lingtian heard what Chen Bei said. He smirked in disdain. "Chen Bei, today, I'd like to see how capable you are as the Second Island Master of the Hidden Fog Island!"
"Don't you want to avenge your son? I'll accompany you to the end! "
Duan Lingtian had already jumped down from the arrow and stood in the sky far away. He looked down at Chen Bei from afar as he taunted him.
"Do you think you can defeat me just because your speed is on par with mine? What a joke! I, Chen Bei, am not the strongest in terms of speed … "
Hearing Duan Lingtian's taunts, Chen Bei was instantly enraged. He roared fiercely, unwilling to lose to Duan Lingtian in terms of aura.
However, before he could finish his sentence, Duan Lingtian interrupted him. "Are you trying to say that your strongest point is not your speed but your attacking technique? I'd like to see it for myself! "
As soon as Duan Lingtian finished his sentence, he nocked an arrow on his bow. With a clang, the bowstring vibrated as he pulled the bowstring into a full moon shape again.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian fixed his gaze on Chen Bei who was dashing toward him. After confirming that he had locked onto Chen Bei, he released the arrow in his hand.
Whoosh!
A sharp arrow that was as black as ink pierced through the air like a black lightning bolt and went straight for Chen Bei.
Its target was between Chen Bei's eyebrows.
