It made sense when he thought about it.
Since this old man was related to the Divine Ability Relic, the Abyssal Swamp, how could he be an ordinary person?
Even if such a person suppressed his cultivation base to the same level as Duan Ling Tian, he still had an advantage.
His battle experience and martial tactics were not something an ordinary Early Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator could compare to.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian was most relieved the old man before him could not replicate his Sun True Origin.
In fact, the reason he was able to rely on his strength that was equivalent to an Early Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator's clone to make his way here was due to the extraordinary Sun True Origin.
In terms of strength, the Sun True Origin at the Early Refined Saint Stage was not inferior to the ordinary True Origin at the Early Eminent Saint Stage.
"He's accelerating again!"
When Duan Lingtian dodged the old man's attack in time, he was surprised to see the old man's speed had increased again.
Through the Divine Consciousness that Duan Ling Tian released, he was certain the old man's True Origin did not change at all. It was still the ordinary True Origin of an Early Refined Saint Stage powerhouse. The reason his speed was slightly faster was due to the old man's movement technique.
It was an extremely ethereal and swift movement technique.
"Even the movement technique in the Heaven Rank Advanced Saint Grade Martial Tactic that has been cultivated to the highest stage wouldn't be as fast as this."
Duan Lingtian could not help but click his tongue when he saw the old man's current speed.
Even an ordinary Intermediate Refined Saint Stage powerhouse might not be able to match the old man's current speed.
If Duan Lingtian did not have the Sun True Origin and was only an ordinary Early Refined Saint Stage powerhouse, he would not have any advantage at all in terms of speed.
The attack the old man cast with just a raise of his hand was extremely powerful as well. It was even more powerful than the attack of an ordinary Intermediate Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator.
However, his speed was suppressed by Duan Lingtian. Since he could not touch Duan Lingtian, it was useless no matter how powerful his attack was.
Although Duan Lingtian's cultivation base was only at the Early Refined Saint Stage, with the Sun True Origin, his speed was comparable to an Early Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator.
Faced with the old man whose strength was comparable to an Intermediate Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator, he did not feel any pressure at all.
"It's also because I encountered this obstacle … If an ordinary Martial Cultivator or Dao Cultivator encountered this obstacle, it would be almost impossible for them to pass!"
Duan Lingtian knew very well that he was the only one who could easily pass this hurdle.
If it was another Early Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator who did not have the Sun True Origin to rely on, he would have been defeated long ago.
"Hmm? Why isn't he moving? "
At the same time, Duan Lingtian noticed that the old man had suddenly stopped chasing after him. He looked at Duan Lingtian blankly and said, "Little fellow, it seems like you're the person I've been waiting for. If you can still defeat me after I cast the Elementary Devouring Tactic, I'll teach you the Elementary Devouring Tactic!"
Duan Lingtian didn't pay much attention to the old man's words.
However, when the old man reached the end of his sentence, Duan Lingtian's eyes narrowed.
I will teach you the Elementary Devouring Technique!
Based on the old man's words, did it mean the Elementary Devouring Tactic was his Divine Ability?
'Don't tell me this Abyssal Swamp was left behind by this senior?'
The moment Duan Lingtian thought of this, his heart began to beat faster.
Although he had entered three Divine Ability Relics previously, there was no one like the old man in front of him at all. They did not even appear, let alone communicate with him.
However, not only did this old man appear in the Abyssal Swamp, but he even said he would teach him the Elementary Devouring Tactic if he could defeat him!
How could he not let his imagination run wild?
"Hmm?"
While Duan Lingtian was lost in his thoughts, he was shocked to discover the Sun True Origin in his body began to leak out without him deliberately controlling it.
Fortunately, he managed to react in time and stopped it.
Otherwise, a lot of the Sun True Origin in his body would have leaked out.
When Duan Lingtian regained his senses, he noticed the old man's robe was bulging.
The air around his body began to vibrate before it finally transformed into a huge ripple. The ripple continued to spread out and formed a huge whirlpool.
The whirlpool was constantly absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the surroundings into the old man's body.
"His aura seems to be getting stronger!"
At the same time, Duan Lingtian could clearly sense the old man's aura was constantly rising with his Divine Consciousness. In the end, the air around him seemed to have stagnated, and his aura finally stopped rising.
At the same time, the whirlpool that shrouded him disappeared as well.
Whoosh!
As the air vibrated, a Territory rapidly formed in a 100-meter radius around the old man.
However, the True Origin that formed the Territory was not the True Origin of an Early Refined Saint Stage powerhouse.
It was the True Origin of a powerhouse at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage!
Naturally, it could not be compared to the True Origin of a powerhouse at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage since the True Origin of the old man's Territory was very unstable.
It was unstable because it was forcefully raised. In essence, it was still the True Origin of an Early Refined Saint Stage powerhouse.
"This is the Elementary Devouring Tactic?"
Duan Ling Tian couldn't help but gasp when he saw this, and his heart trembled.
The Elementary Devouring Tactic allowed an Early Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator to forcefully raise his True Origin to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage?
This Divine Ability was too heaven-defying, right?
The old man's Territory was dark. Pythons that were entangled in blood mist would occasionally jump out of the Territory. After rolling a few times, they would hide in the Territory again.
When Duan Lingtian looked around, he could clearly see there were thousands of pythons that appeared in the old man's Territory at the same time.
The thousands of pythons were entangled in the blood mist as they rolled around in the Territory. They would appear and hide at times, giving off an eerie and terrifying feeling.
Whoosh!
The sound of wind being torn apart rang in the air. Duan Lingtian saw the old man charging toward him rapidly after he had consolidated his Territory.
As for the unstable True Essence that permeated his body, it also showed signs of weakening during this process, although this trend was very slow.
'It seems like the True Origin raised by the Elementary Devouring Tactic won't last for long … He wants to kill me in one go while his True Origin is still at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage!'
The moment Duan Lingtian thought of this, he began to make his move.
One must admit the old man's speed with his True Origin at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage was very fast. It was even faster than 99% of Martial Cultivators at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage.
However, he still could not catch up to Duan Lingtian whose speed was comparable to an Early Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator.
Although his speed was comparable to an Intermediate Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator with his True Origin at the Early Refined Saint Stage.
However, with his True Origin at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage, it was difficult for him to move at the speed of an Early Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator.
Although the peak of the Refined Saint Stage and the Early Eminent Saint Stage were similar to the Early Refined Saint Stage and the Intermediate Refined Saint Stage, they were only one level apart. However, the latter was a cultivation level within a major stage while the former was a cultivation level that was separated by a major stage. They could not be mentioned in the same breath at all.
The difference between the latter and the former was as vast as 1,000 miles!
Due to this reason, even if the old man had raised his True Origin to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage with the Elementary Devouring Tactic, he still could not touch Duan Lingtian.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
…
Naturally, the old man was not fighting alone. The thousands of pythons in his Territory that were shrouded in blood mist quickly joined the battle and surrounded Duan Lingtian.
"Territory?"
Faced with the attack from the old man's Territory, Duan Lingtian smiled faintly as the Sun True Origin shrouding his body spread out.
10,000 Swords Territory!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
…
Wherever the 10,000 sword rays passed, the pythons were completely annihilated. The old man's Territory was also destroyed by the 10,000 Swords Territory.
Territory relied on True Origin.
Duan Lingtian's True Origin was the Sun True Origin that was comparable to the True Origin of an Early Eminent Saint Stage powerhouse. The Territory consolidated from such True Origin easily crushed the Territory consolidated from the old man's True Origin at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage.
"Eh? It's getting weaker? "
At the same time, Duan Lingtian discovered the old man's True Origin had weakened to the Mastery Refined Saint Stage.
"It's time to end this."
With a flash of brilliance in his eyes, Duan Lingtian's 10,000 Swords Territory suddenly shrank. 10,000 sword rays gathered in his hand and merged into a heavy sword.
From afar, it looked like a dazzling sun.
Without warning, Duan Lingtian made his move.
The gigantic sword that was as bright as the sun appeared in his hand. Faced with the old man who had cast the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, again in an attempt to raise his True Origin to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage, the gigantic sword whistled in the air and landed on his body mercilessly.
The old man's True Origin had finally returned to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage after much difficulty. However, faced with Duan Lingtian's sword that contained the Sun True Origin and the profundity of the Sovereign Heart Sword, his True Origin crumbled immediately. Even his body was vaporized and disappeared before Duan Lingtian's eyes.
"Who would've thought that the final hurdle would be the easiest."
With just a thought from Duan Ling Tian, the gigantic sword in his hand dispersed. At the same time, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth as he slowly descended from the sky.
Indeed.
Ever since he entered the Abyssal Swamp, every step he took until he reached the ninth trial was extremely difficult.
As the last trial, the ninth trial was, naturally, the most difficult one in Duan Lingtian's opinion.
Before he faced it, although he appeared to be indifferent on the surface, he was extremely perturbed in his heart. This was because he didn't know if he could successfully pass through the final hurdle and obtain the Divine Ability within the Abyssal Swamp.
However, he had passed the last trial. Moreover, he had an absolute advantage and easily passed the trial.
Of course, the reason for this was also because of the Sun True Origin in his body.
If it was another person, it would be impossible for them to pass the trial.
This had been mentioned many times before.
"This Abyssal Swamp is really insane … However, the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, is even more insane!"
