It was because of Di Jue's calmness that he did not die even after the Inscription Formation outside was crushed by the seawater. Instead, he managed to catch his last breath.
In the span of eleven breaths, he was severely injured by Huo Lao. He was on the verge of death, but he did not die.
When the seawater bombarded the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, regardless of whether it was Duan Lingtian who was hiding and watching the show, or Di Jue who was struggling to catch his last breath, they were all sent out immediately.
"Boy, I, Di Jue, will remember what happened today … I won't let you go when we meet again!"
When Duan Lingtian was sent out, he heard Di Jue's voice that was getting further and further away.
The moment Di Jue was sent out of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda by force, he crushed a high-grade Divine Strider Talisman. His entire being seemed to have transformed into a bolt of lightning as he disappeared without a trace in just a blink of an eye.
A powerhouse above the Saint Stage could activate a Dao Talisman with his True Origin. He did not even need to shout 'Appear'.
He only needed to channel his True Origin into it and crush it.
Duan Lingtian could tell that Di Jue's words were weak. It was obvious that he was severely injured.
Moreover, he did not even dare to stay for a moment longer. It was obvious that he was really afraid of Huo Lao.
'I must go back now … I must bring Uncle Feng, Teacher, and the others away from Half Moon Island while he's in a state of panic and has temporarily lost his rationality!'
Without any hesitation, without even informing the Three-legged Golden Crow, Huo Lao, in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, Duan Lingtian shrunk the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and put it away. He then rushed back to Half Moon Island as fast as he could.
After rushing back to Half Moon Island, Feng Wu Dao and the rest were overjoyed when they saw him.
"Let's talk after we leave … Di Jue might come back anytime."
Seeing that Feng Wu Dao and the rest were about to say something, Duan Lingtian stopped them first. He then waved his hand, and vast True Energy swept out and shrouded Feng Wu Dao and the rest. He then brought them away from Half Moon Island as fast as he could.
However, after leaving Half Moon Island, Duan Lingtian did not head south directly to the Mortal Continent.
Instead, they went west and took a big detour before they started heading southeast.
The reason he did this was to avoid Di Jue who would return after regaining his rationality.
Facts proved that Duan Lingtian's concerns were correct.
After Di Jue crushed the Divine Strider Talisman and left, he hastily consumed a few healing medicinal pills and recovered some of his injuries.
Although the current Di Jue was no longer as terrifying as he was when he was in his prime, as long as his opponent was not at the Saint Stage or above, he was confident he could defeat him.
At the same time, the panic and fear in Di Jue's heart was gradually suppressed by him as he gradually calmed down.
"Something's wrong!"
After calming down, he immediately felt that something was wrong. "That big bird covered in golden flames doesn't seem to be chasing after us … Could it be that it can't leave the seven-story tower?"
The more Di Jue thought about it, the more he was certain of it. At once, regret filled his face.
"Why didn't I think of this before? Otherwise, even if I couldn't re-enter the seven-story pagoda, I would have been able to kill that brat after I was sent out. "
The moment Di Jue thought about Duan Lingtian, he gnashed his teeth in hatred.
At this moment, if he still did not realize that the danger he was facing was created by Duan Lingtian, he would have lived his life in vain.
Although it was impossible for Di Jue to think that the seven-story pagoda belonged to Duan Lingtian, he also realized that everything he faced earlier was related to Duan Lingtian.
The moment he entered the pagoda, he was tortured by a terrifyingly powerful Saint Beast.
In his opinion.
With that Saint Beast's strength, it would not be difficult for it to kill that brat called Duan Lingtian.
However, that brat was fine even after staying in there for fifteen minutes.
In fact, even he, Di Jue, was almost killed after staying in there for over ten breaths. Although he did not die, he was on his last breath. He could only rely on the Divine Strider Talisman to escape when he was sent out.
At that time, there was only fear left in his heart. He did not have the time to think too much.
Otherwise, he would not have left.
Now that he had figured everything out, Di Jue's eyes flashed with a fierce gleam. "Brat, how dare you trick me … If I don't kill you, I, Di Jue, am a Five-clawed Golden Dragon of the Imperial Dragons!"
At this moment, Di Jue was almost certain that Duan Lingtian had long known about the existence of the gigantic bird in the pagoda and purposely lured him in.
As for Duan Lingtian himself, since he was familiar with the situation inside, he could avoid that terrifyingly powerful strange gigantic bird immediately and let the gigantic bird deal with him.
After figuring all this out, the rage in Di Jue's heart grew even stronger.
Whoosh!
At this moment, Di Jue had already disappeared from his original spot. With his fastest speed, he rushed back to the depths of the sea.
However, when he rushed back, there was no trace of Duan Lingtian at all.
Even the seven-story pagoda had disappeared without a trace.
"It seems to be here."
Di Jue arrived at a group of seaweeds and imitated Duan Lingtian by kicking the bottom of the sea. However, he realized that the seven-story pagoda did not appear again.
"Could it be that the location is wrong?"
Subsequently, Di Jue used his fastest speed to kick every corner of the seaweeds. However, the seven-story pagoda still did not appear.
"Don't tell me that there's a need for some technique to make the seven-story pagoda appear?"
Di Jue's face was grave. He could not figure out the reason at all.
If Duan Lingtian had seen Di Jue's series of actions, Duan Lingtian would have burst out laughing.
This was because he had only done that to deceive Di Jue.
When he had passed through this sea for the first time, he had already left the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda that had turned into dust here. After that, he had brought Di Jue back. When he had returned to this place, he pretended to be activating some mechanism while he enlarged the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda with just a thought.
His kicking action was just a smokescreen.
When Di Jue realized that he could not make the seven-story pagoda appear, his face turned even graver.
"Boy, you've completely infuriated me. Since that's the case, there's no need for your friends to continue living in this world! If I kill them now, it won't be considered as breaking the lightning penalty oath that I swore earlier! "
In his rage, Di Jue left the depths of the sea as fast as he could and returned to the valley on Half Moon Island.
However, when he returned, he soon realized that there was no one in the valley anymore. Everyone had left.
Di Jue who was unwilling to give up searched the surroundings, but he still did not discover anything. He immediately headed south. "This group of people came from the Mortal Continent. They must have returned to the Mortal Continent now!
In such a short time, even if that boy comes back, I'll be able to catch up to them in the shortest time as long as the direction is correct. "
The moment Di Jue thought of this, he headed south at full speed.
Half an hour later, Di Jue came to a halt as he muttered to himself with a grave expression, "It seems like they didn't head south. Otherwise, with my speed, I would've already caught up to them."
Currently, Di Jue had already appeared near the Mortal Continent's Cloud Continent.
"If I can figure it out, that cunning boy must've figured it out as well. Perhaps, he brought that group of people north to the Dao Martial Saint Land."
Subsequently, Di Jue headed back. After he returned to Half Moon Island, he continued to search north.
This time, he relied on his speed to search the north. He searched every inch of the area, not missing a single corner.
However, after a few days, he still came up empty-handed.
When he returned to his senses and returned to Half Moon Island, he continued to search south of the sea. Duan Lingtian had already brought Feng Wu Dao and the others back to his hometown, the Cloud Continent.
If it was any other time, Duan Lingtian would definitely be in a good mood when he returned to the Cloud Continent.
However, at this moment, his mood was extremely gloomy. He felt as though the sky above his head was dark.
Of his two fiancées, one was missing while the other was taken away from him by force. The feeling of his heart being hollowed out almost drove him crazy!
However, he managed to calm down in the end.
At this moment, he could only remain calm. It would be useless no matter how impatient he was.
Having lived two lifetimes, Duan Lingtian still had this bit of self-control.
"Little Fei 'er should be fine since she's with Little Black and the others. Three years have passed, Little Black and the others must've broken through to the Mortal Shedding Stage! As Saint Beasts, apart from their strength, the three of them have a perception that far surpasses humans. Half Moon Island has suffered a great calamity. There's only one way for them to go, and that's to look for Xue Nai and ask for help. "
After calming down, Duan Lingtian's thoughts gradually became clearer.
The moment he thought of this, he felt relieved.
"Kerr was taken away by Chi Mei. Based on Chi Mei's attitude toward her, she shouldn't hurt her. Chi Mei is from some Zoroastrianism or something. If I want to look for Kerr in the future, this is the only clue I have right now. "
Although Duan Lingtian had calmed down, he could not help but feel a stab of pain in his heart when he thought of Kerr.
It was obvious that Chi Mei was dissatisfied with the child Kerr was pregnant with.
Moreover, from what Chi Mei said, there was another group of people looking for Kerr as well. That group of people might harm Kerr.
"What kind of background does Kerr have?"
Duan Lingtian could not figure it out no matter how hard he racked his brains.
Duan Lingtian had brought Feng Wu Dao and the others to the Ten Great Dynasties' territory at the south of Cloud Continent. They had returned to the Darkhan Dynasty and the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom under the Darkstone Empire.
His final destination was the remote canyon hidden deep in the mountains.
It was also the place where the Sword Saint, Feng Qingyang, had left his ruins.
Those who followed him now were people who could rely on him with their lives. Therefore, he did not plan to hide this.
Of course, many of those who followed him had come into contact with this canyon before.
For example, Xiong Quan, Feng Wu Dao, and Sima had come into contact with this canyon before and had more or less benefited from it.
However, it was the first time Chen Shao Shuai, Nangong, and the Gold Thug had come here.
