Before he came here, Duan Lingtian had already planned to kill the two Saint Stage powerhouses from the Dark Nether Sect.
Naturally, he planned to kill both of them at once.
Initially, he had thought about luring one of them away. However, when he thought about it, it was not realistic.
Although he was powerful now, he was not a match for either of the two Saint Stage powerhouses from the Dark Nether Sect if he did not use the Devilseal Tablet.
If he did not use the Devilseal Tablet, he would be in a dangerous situation. However, if he used the Devilseal Tablet, he would alert his enemies.
Due to this reason, he decided to use the Devilseal Tablet when both of them appeared at the same time.
In the beginning, everything went according to his plan.
When Ye Feng, the Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect, and the Supreme Elder of Dark Nether Sect appeared together, Duan Lingtian could already see them being killed by the Devilseal Tablet.
However, what happened next was completely out of his expectations.
He did not expect the Devilseal Tablet would be able to suppress Ye Feng and the Supreme Elder of Dark Nether Sect so easily. Moreover, it took some time for them to escape.
Moreover, he did not expect Ye Feng to recognize the Devilseal Tablet at the most critical moment and decide to escape.
Due to this reason, the situation had completely changed.
The Supreme Elder of Dark Nether Sect was killed by the Devilseal Tablet, and Ye Feng, the Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect, had escaped.
'Now that the Devilseal Tablet has lost track of Ye Feng, it's impossible for me to catch up to him with my current strength!'
Duan Lingtian's expression was grave.
If it was any other time, he would not have thought much of it if Ye Feng had escaped.
However, at this moment, Ye Feng found out that he possessed the Devilseal Tablet.
Since Ye Feng knew he had the Devilseal Tablet, he must have known it was a Super Saint Weapon on the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking.
What if Ye Feng spread the news that he had the Devilseal Tablet? It would be a disaster for him!
Just the thought of it sent chills up Duan Lingtian's spine.
Let alone the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion, the Devilseal Tablet was a Super Saint Weapon that people in the entire Dao Martial Saint Land would go crazy for.
To a Devil Cultivator, the Devilseal Tablet was no different from a nightmare.
Whoever obtained the Devilseal Tombstone would not need to fear Devil Cultivators. Although they would only fear Devil Cultivators who were one realm higher than them, it was still an extremely impressive feat.
Just this alone was sufficient to make countless Martial and Dao cultivators go mad for the Devilseal Tablet and flock to it like ducks.
If these people found out that the Devilseal Tombstone was in Duan Lingtian's hands, Duan Lingtian could almost imagine what would happen.
Just the thought of that scene made Duan Lingtian tremble with fear.
Duan Lingtian inhaled a breath of cold air. His eyes flickered, and he finally calmed down after a long while. "Since things have already developed to this stage, it is futile to think about it any further. The most important thing now is to rescue Uncle Feng, teacher, and the rest and bring them back to the Situ Clan."
The moment Duan Lingtian thought of this, he temporarily cast Ye Feng's matter to the back of his mind.
Since one of the two Saint Stage powerhouses from the Dark Nether Sect had died and escaped, Duan Lingtian no longer had anything to worry about. He directly swaggered into the Dark Nether Sect's estate where the seventh-grade Saint Stone reserve was mined. He no longer concealed himself.
"Who's there?!"
Duan Lingtian's swagger naturally attracted the attention of many Dark Nether Sect's patrolling disciples. These Dark Nether Sect's disciples shouted one after another as they surrounded Duan Lingtian like dumplings.
Previously, when the Devilseal Tablet killed the Supreme Elder of Dark Nether Sect, it did not attract the attention of the Dark Nether Sect's people.
Otherwise, these Dark Nether Sect's disciples would not dare to act so boldly.
What a joke!
How could they be a threat to someone who could kill their Dark Nether Sect's Supreme Elder?
Faced with the dozen or so Dark Nether Sect's disciples surrounding him, Duan Lingtian raised an eyebrow and said nonchalantly, "Scram!"
Originally, Duan Lingtian did not think he would make things difficult for these people if they left.
Unfortunately, when these Dark Nether Sect's disciples heard Duan Lingtian's words, they became stubborn and flew into a rage. "Brat, you're seeking death!"
"Not only did you barge into our Dark Nether Sect, but you even asked us to scram! I really don't know where you get your courage from!"
"Why are you wasting your breath on him? Kill him!"
…
The group of Dark Nether Sect's disciples made a ruckus as they attacked Duan Lingtian. Dazzling True Energies shot out in all directions and intertwined with each other as though they had transformed into a huge net that enveloped Duan Lingtian.
"Hurmph!"
As soon as Duan Ling Tian snorted, the aura in the area within a 100-meter radius around him changed drastically. The piercing aura caused the group of Dark Nether Sect's disciples' expressions to change.
Just as their expressions changed, tens of thousands of solid sword lights appeared in the void within a radius of a hundred meters.
"Territory! He's a Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouse! "
When Duan Lingtian's 10,000 Swords Territory appeared and shattered the attacks of the group of Dark Nether Sect's disciples, horror dawned on the group of Dark Nether Sect's disciples as they cried out in horror.
This was destined to be the last emotion they felt in their lives.
As the 10,000 swords flew out, the bodies of the group of Dark Nether Sect's disciples were pierced. In just a few moments, they turned into corpses that resembled a hornet's nest before they fell from the sky.
In just a blink of an eye, the group of people who had come in a ferocious manner had turned into wandering ghosts.
"I've given all of you a chance."
Duan Lingtian's expression was cold as he looked at the corpses. His voice was indifferent and emotionless.
Just like that, Duan Lingtian killed his way into the Dark Nether Sect's seventh-grade Saint Stone vein.
During this time, Duan Lingtian killed another two Imminent Saint Stage Devil Cultivators. One of them was the Vice Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect, and the other was the Grand Elder of Dark Nether Sect.
Duan Lingtian's appearance shocked all of the laborers in the Dark Nether Sect's Saint Stone vein.
Someone had actually killed his way into the Dark Nether Sect's estate and even killed the Vice Sect Leader and Grand Elder of Dark Nether Sect!
In the past, this was something that they did not even dare to think about.
However, it was clear to them now.
"Duan Lingtian!"
Soon after, the group of laborers saw another young man who was also a laborer rose into the air. They were pleasantly surprised when they saw the purple-clad young man who looked like an invincible God of War.
"Does he know this powerhouse?"
"Isn't he also a laborer like us? How is it possible for him to know such a powerhouse? "
"That's right. How is it possible for a person who knows such a powerhouse to end up being a laborer here? "
…
The group of laborers discussed among themselves. They found it hard to believe.
"Nangong Yi, from the looks of it, you didn't suffer much."
Duan Ling Tian smiled as he looked at the familiar young man before him.
This young man was one of the Nangong brothers whom he was familiar with on Cloud Continent. His name was Nangong Yi.
After Duan Ling Tian saw Nangong Yi, he quickly discovered Feng Wu Dao, Sima, and the others as well. When he discovered they were safe and sound, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
"Uncle Feng, Teacher."
Duan Lingtian descended from the air and appeared in front of Feng Wu Dao and the others in just a blink of an eye. He greeted the two seniors, Feng Wu Dao and Sima Chang Feng.
After a while, he greeted Chen Shao Shuai. Then, he nodded at Xiong Quan and Gold Thug and said, "I'm sorry for troubling all of you during this period of time."
"You're welcome."
Xiong Quan and Gold Thug shook their heads. Xiong Quan even smiled as he said, "I knew Young Master would definitely come and save us."
"Master, don't tell me the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan, Master Duan, who has been rumored in Windfall Nation recently is really you?"
Gold Thug asked curiously as he looked at Duan Lingtian.
As Gold Thug asked the question, Feng Wu Dao and the others shifted their attention to Duan Lingtian. They were also curious about this.
"Yes."
In the face of Gold Thug's question, Duan Lingtian nodded and said with a smile, "I'm indeed the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan now. I'm here to bring all of you away and temporarily bring all of you to the Situ Clan."
The Interim Advisor of Situ Clan!
Master Duan!
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's admission, Feng Wu Dao and the others could not help but feel shocked even though they had suspected it.
They knew very well why the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan, Master Duan, was so famous.
Now that they found out the Duan Lingtian they knew was Master Duan, how could they not be shocked?
"I can't believe it's really you!"
Chen Shao Shuai exclaimed in shock.
"In that case, you're here with the powerhouses from Situ Clan as well?"
Nangong Yi asked with bright eyes as he looked at the corpses of the Dark Nether Sect's disciples that had been smashed into minced meat on the ground.
"No, I came here alone."
Duan Lingtian shook his head.
Alone?
Duan Lingtian's words stunned Feng Wu Dao and the others.
He had barged into the Dark Nether Sect alone and killed so many Dark Nether Sect's disciples, including the Vice Sect Leader and Grand Elder.
Although they did not find it strange that Duan Lingtian possessed such strength, they did not find it strange.
After all, when they found out Duan Lingtian was the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan, Master Duan, they knew he had the strength of a Heaven Ranking powerhouse. Naturally, it was easy for him to kill two Imminent Saint Stage powerhouses who were not in the Heaven Ranking.
However, since Duan Lingtian dared to kill so recklessly in the Dark Nether Sect, there was no doubt he would alert the two Saint Stage powerhouses in the Dark Nether Sect.
It was precisely because they thought of those two Saint Stage experts that Feng Wu Dao and the others were frightened.
"Young Master, you should leave now … If the Sect Leader and Supreme Elder of Dark Nether Sect catch wind of this and rush here, you'll be in danger!"
Xiong Quan was the first to regain his senses. His expression was solemn as he told Duan Lingtian.
"That's right. We'll take advantage of the chaos to escape. If we manage to escape, we'll go to the capital to look for you."
Feng Wu Dao nodded in agreement as he said to Duan Lingtian in a slightly anxious manner.
Although Sima and the others did not say anything, the anxious look in their eyes when they looked at Duan Lingtian showed they shared the same thoughts. They hoped Duan Lingtian would leave as soon as possible so that the two Saint Stage powerhouses from Dark Nether Sect would not be able to escape.
"Don't worry, they won't come."
