The grey-clad middle-aged man's palm seemed to have transformed into a five-fingered mountain as he tried to suppress Duan Lingtian.
The power of a Perfection Mortal Shedding Stage cultivator was fully displayed!
In order to regain his freedom, the grey-clad middle-aged man did not hold back at all.
Seeing that the grey-clad middle-aged man's palm was about to land on him, the little vortex in Duan Lingtian's left pupil spun faster and faster.
In an instant, Duan Lingtian's remaining Mind Power was almost completely drained by the little vortex.
Strange Pupil!
Spatial Shift!
In the blink of an eye, the grey-clad middle-aged man's palm that was about to land on Duan Lingtian shifted strangely and brushed past Duan Lingtian's body.
The vast and mighty strength caused the air to vibrate, emitting a series of thunderous explosions.
"How's that possible?!"
At the same time, the grey-clad middle-aged man's expression changed drastically.
However, at this moment, he was sent flying by the palm strike that he unleashed with all his might. He was completely exposed in front of Duan Ling Tian.
In a split second, the True Energy in Duan Lingtian's Qi Sea gushed out unreservedly and gathered in his right hand through the 32 Saint Veins.
At the same time, he pulled the bowstring of the Sun Shooting Bow with all his might and released it.
Clang!
Buzz!
A solid True Energy light blade flew out and sliced through the grey-clad middle-aged man's throat before he could retract his True Energy and activate his defensive technique. His head was severed from his body.
Plop!
The grey-clad middle-aged man's head fell to the ground. Blood spurted out from the two halves of his body and dyed the ground red.
Duan Lingtian took the opportunity to move to the side. The grey-clad middle-aged man's body was then swept away by the inertia of the palm.
The Perfection Mortal Shedding Stage bandit died just like that. He was completely dead.
Silence.
The scene was dead silent. Even if a needle was thrown to the ground, the sound could be heard.
"This … This …"
The grey-clad middle-aged man who was hiding at the side, one of the 36 Guardians, stared blankly at the scene in front of him and could not regain his senses for a long time.
When Duan Lingtian told him not to interfere, he thought that Duan Lingtian was being arrogant.
Seeing that Duan Lingtian was about to be killed, she thought the Duan Lingtian would be killed by the Perfection Mortal Shedding Stage bandit because he did not make a move in time because of Duan Lingtian's words.
Who would have thought that at the last moment, the bandit seemed to have been bewitched. His palm that was moving forward with a ferocious momentum actually changed direction abruptly and slapped towards Duan Ling Tian's side.
In that instant, even he hadn't noticed how the criminals had changed directions.
In his field of vision, the criminal's hand seemed to disappear into thin air. At the same time, it appeared to the side out of thin air, dodging Duan Lingtian.
He couldn't figure out what was going on.
Then, he saw Duan Lingtian take advantage of the bandit's missed attack and the fact that he could not withdraw his strength to defend himself. Duan Lingtian decisively killed the bandit.
As a peak Perfection Mortal Shedding Stage existence, he knew very well that the bandit's missed attack was the turning point.
Logically speaking, his attack should have been enough to kill Duan Lingtian.
However, it strangely avoided Duan Lingtian at the critical moment.
It was because his attack missed that he was killed by Duan Lingtian.
'Could it be … This Duan Lingtian knew this would happen?'
When he recalled Duan Lingtian's True Energy Voice Transmission that forbade him from interfering, his heart skipped a beat as an incredulous thought rose in his mind. 'Then … Could it be his doing?'
He did not dare to think further.
If it was really Duan Lingtian's doing, how terrifying would it be?
At this moment, a greedy gleam appeared in the depth of the silver-armored middle-aged man's eyes without any warning.
'If it's really Duan Lingtian's doing … If I can get my hands on it, won't I be able to fight a Paramount Mortal Shedding Stage powerhouse with my cultivation base at the peak of the Perfection Mortal Shedding Stage?'
The silver-armored middle-aged man was excited as he thought about this. 'By then, my Heavenly Dark Guardian's ability will be on par with most of the top ten guardians!'
The Heavenly Dark Guardian was ranked 18th among the 36 Guardians in the City Governor's Estate of Mound Hill City. He had a cultivation base at the peak of the Perfection Mortal Shedding Stage.
"Hmm?"
Duan Lingtian's face was slightly pale as his Spiritual Energy was almost depleted. At the same time, he became more alert of his surroundings … He noticed a burning gaze.
Currently, his Spiritual Energy was completely depleted, which affected his ability to a certain extent.
He might not even be a match for an ordinary Mastery Mortal Shedding Stage Martial Cultivator now.
'Is it one of the 36 Guardians?'
Duan Lingtian became alert.
Whoosh!
After the Heavenly Dark Guardian appeared, Duan Lingtian became even more alert. He saw a subtle gleam of greed in the depth of his eyes. 'Greed? What does he want? '
'Could it be … Could he have noticed something earlier? Is he plotting something against me? '
Duan Lingtian's heart sank as he thought about this.
Just as the Heavenly Dark Guardian walked over quietly, Duan Lingtian took a few steps back.
"Eh?"
At this moment, a soft sound of surprise came from the sky. It made the Heavenly Dark Guardian's expression change slightly. At the same time, he stopped walking toward Duan Lingtian.
"Heavenly Leader Guardian!"
When Duan Lingtian lifted his head and saw the Heavenly Leader Guardian standing in the air, he immediately sighed in relief.
He knew that since the leader of the 36 Guardians, the Heavenly Leader Guardian, was here, the silver-armored middle-aged man before him, one of the 36 Guardians, would not dare to act like before.
However, Duan Lingtian knew very well that the Heavenly Leader Guardian had only resolved his crisis temporarily.
Since his opponent was greedy, it was impossible for him to suppress it so easily.
"Big Brother."
The Heavenly Dark Guardian bowed respectfully in front of the Heavenly Leader Guardian.
"Heavenly Dark Guardian?"
The Heavenly Leader Guardian stepped on the air and landed next to Duan Lingtian and the Heavenly Dark Guardian in just a blink of an eye. He looked at the Heavenly Dark Guardian and asked with a frown, "Did you kill this Perfection Mortal Shedding Stage bandit?"
"No."
The Heavenly Dark Guardian shook his head and subsequently looked at Duan Lingtian and said, "He killed him."
The Heavenly Dark Guardian!
When the Heavenly Leader Guardian appeared and greeted the silver-armored middle-aged man before him, Duan Lingtian already knew the silver-armored middle-aged man's name.
'The Heavenly Dark Guardian … It's named after the 36 Heavenly Stars. The Heavenly Dark Guardian seems to be ranked 18th.'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
"Duan Lingtian?"
At the same time, with the Heavenly Dark Guardian's reminder, the Heavenly Leader Guardian looked at Duan Lingtian in shock. "Did you kill this Perfection Mortal Shedding Stage bandit?"
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded. When he saw the shock on the Heavenly Leader Guardian's face, Duan Lingtian continued, "He fought with the others earlier and exhausted a lot of energy … I was lucky enough to kill him."
Lucky?
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, the Heavenly Leader Guardian had a look of disbelief on his face as he stared deeply at Duan Lingtian.
"The test is over. You can leave now."
The Heavenly Leader Guardian said after a while.
"It's over? So soon? "
Duan Lingtian was stunned.
"There's only one Perfection Mortal Shedding Stage bandit in this valley. He's hiding at the end of the valley … You've killed the rest of the bandits."
The Heavenly Leader Guardian said, "Therefore, there's no more bandits in this valley. There's no point for you to stay here."
Realization dawned on Duan Lingtian.
When he left with the Heavenly Leader Guardian, Duan Lingtian clearly noticed that the Heavenly Dark Guardian's burning gaze would land on him from time to time.
'It seems like I shouldn't use the Strange Pupil in front of others in the future … Otherwise, I'll be in trouble sooner or later.'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself as his heart sank.
He had already guessed that it was the Perfection Mortal Shedding Stage bandit's palm strike that missed its target that exposed the Heavenly Dark Guardian.
The Heavenly Dark Guardian must have thought that it was some special technique of his and coveted it.
'I'll have to be careful in the City Governor's Mansion in the future … Since the Heavenly Dark Guardian can't find an opportunity today, he'll definitely find an opportunity to make things difficult for me in the future!'
It was not difficult for Duan Lingtian to guess this.
Perhaps the Heavenly Dark Guardian would not kill him in the beginning, but he would definitely force him to hand over the Spatial Manipulation technique.
Although he knew that the Spatial Manipulation technique originated from the Strange Pupil, it could not be replicated.
However, the Heavenly Dark Guardian did not know this!
'If I can't hand it over by then, I'm afraid my life will be in danger.'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
Under the Heavenly Leader Guardian's lead, Duan Lingtian left the valley and returned to the outside of the valley.
"Where are they?"
When he returned to the outside, Duan Lingtian noticed that there was no one outside. Everyone, including the other 36 Guardians, had left.
"Master City Governor has brought them back to Mound Hill City."
The Heavenly Leader Guardian reminded Duan Lingtian as if he could see the confusion on his face.
"Now, follow me back to Mound Hill City … I'll report the results of the test to Master City Governor."
After calling out to Duan Lingtian, the Heavenly Leader Guardian took the lead and leaped into the air to lead the way.
Duan Lingtian followed closely behind.
Behind Duan Lingtian, the Heavenly Dark Guardian leaped into the air. It was obvious that he was prepared to follow the Heavenly Leader Guardian and Duan Lingtian back to Mound Hill City and the City Governor's Mansion.
In the meeting room of the City Governor's Mansion in Mound Hill City.
"Master City Governor!"
Suddenly, a loud and respectful voice came from outside, attracting the attention of the group of people in the meeting hall.
In the meeting hall, the City Governor of Mound Hill City sat majestically at the head of the table.
Below him stood eleven young men and one young woman … They were the eleven of the Thirteen Gangsters who had just returned from outside and Zhu Lang, an ordinary member of the Latent Dragon Camp.
"Come in!"
Hearing the voice coming from outside, the City Governor of Mound Hill City spoke calmly.
"Master Heavenly Leader Guardian!"
Seeing a figure enter the meeting hall first, many people greeted him respectfully.
Soon, the people in the room noticed that there was a purple figure following closely behind the Heavenly Leader Guardian.
It was Duan Lingtian, who ranked sixth among the Thirteen Gangsters in the Latent Dragon Camp.
"Duan Lingtian."
Seeing Duan Lingtian, a smile appeared on Guo Li and Zhu Lang's faces.
Of course, Duan Lingtian's appearance caused some people to be happy and some to hate him.
For example, Zheng Jian, Hou Lin, and Zhang Ji Long had already formed an irreconcilable enmity with Duan Ling Tian. When they saw Duan Ling Tian, they gnashed their teeth in hatred.
"Master City Governor, the final results and rankings of today's test are out."
After entering the meeting hall, the Heavenly Leader Guardian reported to the City Governor of Mound Hill City.
"Speak."
