Until now, when Duan Lingtian recalled the strength of the old man at the Early Refined Saint Stage during the final trial in the Abyssal Swamp, he could not help but feel a lingering fear in his heart.
If it was an ordinary Martial Cultivator, he would not be a match for that old man even if his cultivation base was at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage!
Due to this reason, in his opinion, the Sun True Origin that Huo Lao had given him was the main reason he was able to pass the final trial in the Abyssal Swamp and obtain the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic.
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Huo Lao smiled faintly. "It's your good fortune to be able to obtain the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and meet me. It's also your good fortune to be able to obtain the inheritance from the Sword Saint, Feng Qingyang. It's also your good fortune to be able to obtain the Elementary Devouring Tactic this time.
In the end, the Sun True Origin has nothing to do with you being able to obtain the Elementary Devouring Tactic. It's all because of your good fortune. "
Even Huo Lao could not help but sigh emotionally when he heard about Duan Lingtian's good fortune.
Back then, even among the people he knew in the Devata Realms, there were not many people who could compare to Duan Lingtian in terms of good fortune.
Naturally, Huo Lao did not take the initiative to mention this to Duan Lingtian.
In his opinion, even if he told Duan Lingtian about this, it would only harm Duan Lingtian.
It would be fine if Duan Ling Tian took his fortuitous encounter seriously. However, if he did not, he would slack off because of his fortuitous encounter. In the end, even if he had an extraordinary fortuitous encounter, he would not have any great achievements.
Good fortune was a person's luck, but it could not be relied on too much.
Huo Lao had lived for so many years, and he had seen many similar tragedies. Naturally, he did not want Duan Lingtian to make the same mistake.
Duan Lingtian remained silent when he heard Huo Lao's words.
When he thought about his journey, his luck was indeed not bad.
Naturally, as someone whose soul had transmigrated from another world, Duan Lingtian was not complacent because of these fortuitous encounters.
In his opinion, transmigrating from earth to this world was the greatest fortuitous encounter he had in his life!
Otherwise, he would have died long ago, let alone obtain the fortuitous encounter later on.
Duan Lingtian had a good attitude in this regard.
Naturally, Elder Huo was unaware of this. That was why he did not dare to tell Duan Ling Tian about this.
"Elder Huo, after some time, I will start looking for materials to repair the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda."
Duan Ling Tian's cultivation in closed-door cultivation...... When Duan Ling Tian's next time, Gu Li, Duan Lingtian's Realm, Duan Lingtian Sect Return Duan Li Duan came Return.
Duan Lingtian entered closed-door cultivation mainly to raise his cultivation base and further comprehend the profundity of the Supreme Sword Dao Mental Cultivation Method, the Sovereign Heart Sword.
Currently, he had only comprehended the second stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword, the Sword Shadow Follow the Heart. The Sovereign Heart Sword had a total of five stages!
In the future, he still had a very, very long way to go.
While Duan Lingtian was cultivating, in the faraway Rising Sky Mansion's district, the fourth-rate force, the Rising Sky Mansion, was facing a calamity.
The Rising Sky Mansion was originally peaceful and quiet until their Mansion Master was killed by a mysterious powerhouse. Only then did it cause a huge commotion.
The Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion was the strongest powerhouse in the Rising Sky Mansion. In the entire Dobusei Subterranean, there were only a handful of powerhouses who could kill him without alerting others.
Due to this reason, when the group of Rising Sky Mansion's high-ranking officials and disciples discovered that their Mansion Master was killed, they panicked.
Subsequently, a few more high-ranking officials of the Rising Sky Mansion were killed.
In the end, almost all of the high-ranking officials of the Rising Sky Mansion were killed. Even some of the outstanding disciples of the Rising Sky Mansion were killed.
The people from the Rising Sky Mansion who were killed all had one thing in common. All of them knew that their Young Mansion Master, Xu Jing, had obtained a top Devil Dao Cultivation Method that contained the Soul Congregation technique.
However, up until the moment they died, it did not cross their minds that the group of tiger-like powerhouses would come for the cultivation method that their Young Mansion Master, Xu Jing, cultivated.
The people who killed them were none other than the group of high-ranking officials from the Mystical Sky Mansion.
Among the people from the Mystical Sky Mansion who came, the weakest one was Gu Li.
Naturally, Gu Li was only here to join in the fun. He followed his father, Gu Ci Yun, and did not even have the chance to make a move from the beginning until the end.
Apart from Gu Li, the weakest among the people from the Mystical Sky Mansion was a Vice Mansion Master.
Due to this reason, they were able to annihilate the backbone of the Rising Sky Mansion in one fell swoop before most of the people from the Rising Sky Mansion could even react.
"Has everything been cleaned up?"
In the sky above the Rising Sky Mansion's estate, a group of people flew over from all directions. They were the group of high-ranking officials from the Mystical Sky Mansion. The person who spoke was none other than the Mansion Master of Mystical Sky Mansion, Meng Qing.
"Mansion Master, the east side has been cleaned up."
Gu Ci Yun who was standing next to Gu Li said.
"The west side has been cleaned up as well."
The old man standing next to Zhao Deng said. This old man was Zhao Deng's father, the other Guardian of the Mystical Sky Mansion.
In the entire Mystical Sky Mansion, in terms of strength, he was on par with Gu Ci Yun. He was only inferior to Meng Qing.
"Lord Mansion Master, the south side has been cleaned up."
The Four Great Palace Masters of the Mystical Sky Mansion led by Zhu Lüqi, the Palace Master of Heaven Palace, had also arrived. Zhu Lüqi reported to Meng Qing respectfully.
As for the other Vice Mansion Masters, they followed Meng Qing and were in charge of cleaning up the north side of the Rising Sky Mansion's estate. After all, this matter had to be done secretly.
Since it was related to a top Devil Dao Cultivation Method, even the Mountainshade Black Market and the Azure Cloud Mansion would be tempted.
"Very good."
Meng Qing nodded in satisfaction. "I've already moved Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, to a secret place. Since we've cleaned up everything, we can return now. However, based on Xu Jing's condition, if we use the Soul Searching Secret Tactic now, I'm afraid his soul won't be able to withstand it.
For this reason, we'll have to bring him back and imprison him for a period of time. "
Meng Qing added.
"Previously, he used the Soul Congregation technique, causing his soul to disperse. He'll need at least a few years to fully recover. However, if we want to use the Soul Searching Secret Tactic on him, we'll have to wait for his soul to recover for another year or so. Otherwise, with his current condition, I'm afraid his soul will disperse completely before we can extract the Devil Dao Cultivation Method from his soul. "
Gu Ci Yun nodded.
"Then, we'll wait for another year or so. I hope the Devil Dao Cultivation Method he obtained isn't a heartless one! In that case, with that Cultivation Method, our Mystical Sky Mansion's position in the Dobusei Subterranean will definitely rise to a higher level! "
The eyes of the old man next to Zhao Deng, the other Guardian of Mystical Sky Mansion, gleamed. When he reached the end of his sentence, his voice was filled with excitement.
The moment his words left his mouth, even Meng Qing, the Mansion Master of Mystical Sky Mansion, lost his composure, let alone the others.
In the Dobusei Subterranean, the Mystical Sky Mansion was one of the quasi third-rate forces. In the eyes of ordinary people, the Mystical Sky Mansion was one of the top forces in the Dobusei Subterranean.
However, only those who stood in the upper echelons of the Dobusei Subterranean knew that although the Mystical Sky Mansion was a quasi third-rate force, it was still lacking compared to the Mountainshade Black Market and Azure Cloud Mansion that were also quasi third-rate forces.
"Lord Mansion Master!"
At this moment, Qian Ping Sheng, the Palace Master of Yellow Palace, said hesitantly, breaking the good atmosphere.
At once, most people, including Meng Qing, shifted their attention to Qian Ping Sheng.
"What's wrong?"
Meng Qing was puzzled.
"There might be a fish that slipped through the net …"
Qian Ping Sheng smiled wryly.
A fish that slipped through the net!
The moment Qian Ping Sheng's words left his mouth, everyone, including Zhu Lüqi, the Palace Master of Earth Palace, and the Palace Master of Mystical Palace, could not help but have a change in expression.
"Didn't Palace Master Zhu say earlier that we've cleaned everything up?"
Before Meng Qing could speak, Zhao Jin had already looked at Qian Ping Sheng and asked in an interrogative tone.
"Junior Brother Qian, what's going on?"
Zhu Lüqi looked at Qian Ping Sheng. His expression was extremely grave as well. Qian Ping Sheng did not mention this to him earlier.
"Senior Brother Zhu, didn't Xu Jing have a follower? We didn't notice that follower at all, right? "
Qian Ping Sheng asked as he looked at Zhu Lüqi.
"Xu Jing's hunchbacked follower?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Lüqi's frown eased up. "He's only Xu Jing's follower. It's impossible for him to know that Xu Jing has obtained the Devil Dao Cultivation Method, right? Moreover, when we were cleaning up, we didn't hear anyone mention that he knew about the Devil Dao Cultivation Method at all. "
"Those people are all proud and arrogant. Perhaps, they didn't care about Xu Jing's follower at all."
Qian Ping Sheng shook his head. "Initially, I didn't care about Xu Jing's follower at all. However, the more I thought about it, the more I felt something was amiss. I heard that one year before the Rising Sky Ranking Battle began, Xu Jing's follower was not in the Rising Sky Mansion's estate. It's suspected that he had left with Xu Jing. "
"If he left, then …"
Before Qian Ping Sheng could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Gu Ci Yun who had a grave expression on his face. "A Rising Sky Mansion's disciple in the area that I'm in charge of mentioned that Xu Jing's follower appeared at the Rising Sky Ranking Battle with Xu Jing. After that, he even returned with Xu Cen, the Grand Elder of Rising Sky Mansion."
Apart from that Rising Sky Mansion's disciple, nobody mentioned him at all. I think they didn't care about him at all. After all, his position in the Rising Sky Mansion is extremely low. However, if he was by Xu Jing's side when he left, he must have known about the Devil Dao Cultivation Method! "
When Gu Ci Yun reached the end of his sentence, his expression turned grave.
"Someone in the area that I was in charge of also mentioned Xu Jing's follower. However, he was in the area that Palace Master Zhu was in charge of so I didn't ask about it. Initially, I thought Palace Master Zhu would deal with him. However, it did not cross my mind that he would be the fish that escaped the net! "
Zhao Jin looked at Zhu Lüqi with a reprimanding expression on his face.
"What?!"
Zhu Lüqi's expression turned grave. It did not cross his mind that the only fish that escaped the net had escaped from under his watch.
"Lord Mansion Master, although we didn't know that Xu Jing's follower knew about the Devil Dao Cultivation Method, we did look for him, but we couldn't find him.
