Naturally, Duan Lingtian was unaware of what was happening outside.
Currently, he was cultivating on the third level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. The flow of time in the third level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was slow. Five days inside was only one day outside. For this reason, Duan Lingtian had plenty of time to cultivate. At the very least, he was more efficient than anyone else in the Dao Martial Saint Land.
After stabilizing his cultivation base at the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage, Duan Lingtian began to break through to the peak of the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage.
This was because he would only be able to break through to the Imminent Saint Stage and the Saint Stage after entering the peak of the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage!
Although his current strength was almost invincible among those below the Saint Stage, his cultivation base was still close to the peak of the Saint Stage.
However, his cultivation base was only close to the peak of the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage. He had not truly entered the peak of the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage.
'With the strength I've displayed so far, if my cultivation base breaks through to the Imminent Saint Stage, the True Energy in my Qi Sea will also be abundant to a certain extent. At that time, I should be able to fight against the weakest Saint Stage powerhouse if I use all my techniques, right?'
Apart from cultivating, Duan Lingtian was also looking forward to the future.
Naturally, although he was looking forward to it, he was not certain. After all, he had witnessed the strength of a Saint Stage powerhouse. It was not something a Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouse could compare to.
It would be a brand new transformation!
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Huo Lao immediately heard the sound and promptly informed Duan Lingtian.
"You have news about Senior Brother and the others?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up immediately. He had told Situ Hang, the Great Young Master of Situ Clan, not to disturb his cultivation unless there was news about his Senior Brother.
Now that someone knocked on the door, it was obvious there was news about his Senior Brother.
After leaving the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and opening the door, Duan Lingtian immediately saw Situ Hang standing outside. "Young Master Hang, you have news about my Senior Brother?"
"Yes."
Situ Hang nodded.
"Where's my Senior Brother?"
Duan Lingtian asked anxiously.
"Master Duan, speaking of which, it's actually not our people who found Senior Brother Ling. It was Senior Brother Ling who took the initiative to look for us. However, Senior Brother Ling seems to have encountered some trouble. He only asked someone to send a Voice Transmission Jade Token to our Situ Clan.
Situ Hang said.
The Voice Transmission Jade Token was a jade token that was inscribed with the Voice Transmission Saint Inscription in the Dao Martial Saint Land. It was similar to the Voice Transmission Jade Slip on Cloud Continent that could store sound.
Of course, voice transmission jade slips could store more sounds than voice transmission jade slips, and they were not easily damaged.
It was just like the voice transmission jade slip that Duan Rufeng had left for Duan Lingtian. The voice transmission jade slip that had been hidden in the exquisite jade box had been damaged. If it had been replaced with a voice transmission jade slip, it would not have been damaged so easily.
Due to the destruction of the voice transmission jade slip, Duan Lingtian was unable to meet up with Ku Mi in time.
Otherwise, he would have been living the life of a Young Mansion Master in the Azure Cloud Mansion.
"Huh?"
Upon hearing Situ Hang's words, Duan Lingtian frowned. "Then, does this mean you're not certain he's my Senior Brother as well?"
"The person who sent the voice transmission jade slip said Bai Li Hong asked him to send the jade slip … I don't think I'm mistaken, right?"
Situ Hang said.
"If that's the case, I don't think I'm mistaken."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
After taking the voice transmission jade slip from Situ Hang, Duan Lingtian mobilized his True Energy and inserted it into the jade slip.
The method of activating the voice transmission jade slip was the same as the method of activating the voice transmission jade slip. Soon after, a familiar voice resonated in Duan Lingtian's ears. "Junior Brother, when I heard a young Interim Advisor, Duan Lingtian, has recently appeared in the Situ Clan, I was certain it was you. Only you're capable of defeating the strongest person among the younger generation in Windfall Nation, Lady Feng from Drift Blaze Sect.
Currently, you're famous in Windfall Nation … I think you must have done this on purpose to let us know about your existence. It seems like you've also guessed I've come to Windfall Nation. "
Upon hearing this, Duan Lingtian felt excited.
He could tell this was his Senior Brother, Bai Li Hong's voice. It was definitely not fake.
"Actually, when you escaped from the Moon Illumination Sect, the others and I almost encountered a calamity as well. Fortunately, the few Saint Stage powerhouses in the Moon Illumination Sect had their attention on you. Otherwise, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to escape from the Moon Illumination Sect.
After leaving the Moon Illumination Sect, I brought them to Windfall Nation. Initially, we planned to go to the capital of Windfall Nation since it's the most prosperous and safest place in Windfall Nation. Who would've thought we would encounter a calamity not long after we arrived in Windfall Nation? All of us were confined in the Dark Nether Sect.
Fortunately, due to my ability to inscribe Saint Inscriptions, the people from the Dark Nether Sect didn't kill us. However, they were forced to work for the Dark Nether Sect and were sent to excavate the Saint Stone reserve.
Up until now, I'm not completely confident I'll be able to bring them out of here unharmed. If you have a say in the Situ Clan, you can ask them for help. I'm sure the Dark Nether Sect won't dare to not let us go. "
Bai Li Hong continued to speak, "Naturally, it's fine if the Situ Clan isn't willing to help. I'll think of a way to bring them out of the Dark Nether Sect unharmed. Once we've left the Dark Nether Sect, we'll go to the capital to look for you. For now, our lives won't be in danger. "
Apart from these words, Bai Li Hong also said he had come to the capital with an excuse. Moreover, there was a Vice Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect and two Dark Nether Sect elders by his side.
The Vice Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect was called Tan Chi. He was an Imminent Saint Stage powerhouse.
As for the two Dark Nether Sect elders, they were also elites at the peak of the Saint Rudiment Stage. Their cultivation bases were close to the Imminent Saint Stage.
After Bai Li Hong finished speaking, the contents of the Voice Transmission Jade Token finally came to an end.
"Dark Nether Sect!"
Duan Lingtian's eyes gleamed coldly. Killing intent surged in his heart.
How dare the Dark Nether Sect enslave his Senior Brother, his family, and friends?
In his opinion, this was no different from a slap in the face!
"Master Duan, what did your Senior Brother say in the Voice Transmission Jade Token? Is there anything you need my help with? "
Situ Hang asked in a timely manner when he saw Duan Lingtian's expression was slightly off. His words were like rain in a drought.
"Young Master Hang, do you know about the Dark Nether Sect?"
Duan Lingtian asked as he looked at Situ Hang.
In the Voice Transmission Jade Token, his Senior Brother Bai Li Hong did not tell him what kind of sect the Dark Nether Sect was. He could guess the reason why his Senior Brother did not tell him.
He must have known he could ask around in the Situ Clan.
"Dark Nether Sect? I know about it. "
Situ Hang nodded. "The Dark Nether Sect is similar to the Drift Blaze Sect. It's also a seventh-rate sect in our Windfall Nation. However, although they're both seventh-rate sects, the Dark Nether Sect can't be compared to the Drift Blaze Sect at all. In fact, they're far from being comparable to our Situ Clan! In Windfall Nation, the Dark Nether Sect is considered one of the weakest seventh-rate forces. They only have two Saint Stage powerhouses. Moreover, those two Saint Stage powerhouses had only broken through to the Saint Stage in recent years. "
Seventh-rate sect?
Two Saint Stage powerhouses?
Duan Lingtian could not help but frown.
No matter how powerful or how many Martial and Dao Cultivators below the Saint Stage were, he was not afraid of them.
With his current strength, he was confident he was invincible below the Saint Stage.
However, a Saint Stage powerhouse was not someone he could deal with. At the very least, it was not someone he could deal with now.
"Master Duan, why did you suddenly ask about the Dark Nether Sect? Is it related to your Senior Brother's current situation?"
As the Great Young Master of Situ Clan, Situ Hang was, naturally, not a fool. Naturally, he could guess many things from Duan Lingtian's question.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian did not hide anything and directly told him about his Senior Brother and his friends being imprisoned by the Dark Nether Sect. "Since the Dark Nether Sect is a seventh-rate sect, with my current strength, it's almost impossible for me to rescue my Senior Brother and my friends. Young Master Hang, are you and your father willing to help me? "
"If you can rescue my Senior Brother and my friends, I, Duan Lingtian, will owe you a favor!"
Duan Lingtian said solemnly when he reached the end of his sentence.
All this while, Duan Lingtian had rarely promised favors. This was because he knew a favor was the hardest to repay.
However, at that moment, for the sake of his senior brother, for the sake of his family and friends, he had decided to make a debt of gratitude.
"Dark Nether Sect …"
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Situ Hang's eyes gleamed a few times before he said, "Master Duan, if the other party isn't the Dark Nether Sect, even if it's a seventh-rate force that's slightly more powerful than the Dark Nether Sect, I'll agree to your request immediately. However, since it's related to the Dark Nether Sect, I'll have to report this to my father and let him make the decision. "
The moment Situ Hang's words left his mouth, Duan Lingtian could not help but frown.
He instantly felt that Situ Hang was trying to evade his request.
The Dark Nether Sect was only a seventh-rate force at the bottom of Windfall Nation. Why would the Situ Clan be afraid of it?
When Situ Hang saw Duan Lingtian frowning, he, naturally, could guess what was on Duan Lingtian's mind. He smiled wryly and said, "Master Duan, I'm not trying to evade your request … It's just that the Dark Nether Sect has something to do with our Situ Clan."
"It has something to do with your Situ Clan?"
Duan Lingtian's expression turned grave. He did not expect the Situ Clan to have something to do with the Dark Nether Sect. If he had known earlier, he would not have saved Situ Hang.
Naturally, this was merely a thought in his mind.
Even if he knew the Situ Clan had something to do with the Dark Nether Sect, he would still save Situ Hang if he did not know his Senior Brother and friends were imprisoned by the Dark Nether Sect. This was because he had saved Situ Hang because of the huge reward the Situ Clan had promised him.
"Yes."
