After all, Di Jue, the Five-clawed Golden Dragon, had lived for many years, but how old was his son?
When Duan Rufeng discovered Duan Lingtian's cultivation base was only at the peak of the Eminent Saint Stage, he had already thought of persuading Duan Lingtian not to fulfill the five-year promise.
This was because the disparity between Duan Lingtian and Di Jue's cultivation base was too big!
When he mentioned the five-year promise to Duan Lingtian earlier, Duan Rufeng was merely following The Oracle Man's instructions.
If his son did not want to fulfill the five-year promise, he would not force him at all!
Not only that, but deep in his heart, he did not want his son to fulfill the five-year promise.
This was because if his son fought with Di Jue and Di Jue had already broken through to the Exemplary Saint Stage, he would not be able to guarantee his son's safety even if he was by his side.
If something happened to his son, let alone his wife who would blame him, he would not be able to forgive himself!
"Father, it's not that I don't want to fulfill the five-year promise!"
Upon hearing Duan Rufeng's words, Duan Lingtian regained his senses. He knew his father had misunderstood him, so he quickly said, "I was just thinking about something else earlier. As for the five-year promise, I'll fulfill it.
Put aside the fact that Di Jue is at the peak of the Divine Saint Stage, even if he has broken through to the Exemplary Saint Stage, I'll still fulfill it! "
When Duan Lingtian reached the end of his sentence, his eyes shone with determination.
"But you … You're only at the peak of the Eminent Saint Stage now!"
Duan Rufeng shook his head. "With only ten months, I'm afraid it'll be very difficult for you to raise your cultivation base to the point where you can fight with Di Jue, let alone defeat him!"
"Father, weren't you very confident in me earlier? Why did you suddenly change? "
Duan Ling Tian couldn't help but be slightly bewildered when he saw Duan Ru Feng's attitude suddenly take a 180-degree turn. He felt that his father's change was too quick, and it caused him to be slightly unaccustomed to it.
When Duan Rufeng heard this, he naturally felt a little awkward.
He had confidence in Duan Lingtian because he trusted The Oracle Man.
However, after seeing the ugly expression on Duan Lingtian's face, his trust in The Oracle Man was shaken again. That was why his attitude changed so quickly.
"Tian 'er, are you really confident?"
Duan Rufeng asked with a serious face, "This is not a joke … If we are not careful, we may be doomed eternally!"
"Don't worry, Father."
Duan Lingtian gave Duan Rufeng a reassuring look, exuding a strong sense of confidence.
Ten months later, he had already tempered the Golden Crow's Wings to the second form, and his cultivation base had successfully broken through to the Early Eminent Saint Stage.
Moreover, with the help of the third level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, he had a chance to break through to the Intermediate Eminent Saint Stage!
Once he entered the Intermediate Eminent Saint Stage, his strength would be comparable to an Intermediate Divine Saint Stage powerhouse. At the very least, the Sun True Origin in his body would not be any weaker than the energy in an Intermediate Divine Saint Stage powerhouse's body!
Apart from that, he could also comprehend the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, during this period of time!
He had witnessed the power of the Elementary Devouring Tactic with his own eyes.
He still remembered the last trial in the Divine Ability Relic where he obtained the Elementary Devouring Tactic. The old man's cultivation base was maintained at the Early Refined Saint Stage. With the help of the Elementary Devouring Tactic, his strength was comparable to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage.
Although it did not last long, it was enough!
'If I can comprehend the Elementary Devouring Tactic, even if I'm only at the Early Eminent Saint Stage and my strength is only comparable to an Early Divine Saint Stage powerhouse after ten months, I'll be able to display the strength at the peak of the Divine Saint Stage for a short period of time with the help of the Elementary Devouring Tactic!
If I can break through to the Intermediate Eminent Saint Stage in ten months, I might be able to fight Di Jue even if he has broken through to the Early Exemplary Saint Stage with the help of the Elementary Devouring Tactic! '
The moment Duan Lingtian thought of this, he was filled with confidence.
'Apart from that, I still have the Divine Ability, the Golden Crow's Wings. As long as I break through to the Early Eminent Saint Stage, I'll be able to master the Golden Crow's Wings! With the second form of the Golden Crow's Wings and the Elementary Devouring Tactic, I might be able to fight Di Jue even if I'm only at the Early Eminent Saint Stage! '
Moreover, even without the Divine Ability, Duan Lingtian was not afraid of Di Jue at all.
The biggest reliance he had was the Celestial Sword Supreme Treasure, the Jasper Celestial Sword.
He knew very well how powerful the Jasper Celestial Sword was.
Putting aside the distant incidents, just recently, he had used the Jasper Celestial Sword to block the full-force attack of a Mastery Divine Saint Stage Devil Cultivator!
Although he had nearly exhausted all of the Sun True Origin in his body, he only had about sixty percent of the Sun True Origin left in his body at the time … Before that, when he used the Demon Sealing Tombstone, it greedily absorbed a portion of the Sun True Origin in his body.
The activation of the Devilseal Tablet required the support of the True Origin as well.
'With my current Sun True Origin that's comparable to the True Origin of a powerhouse at the peak of the Eminent Saint Stage, I might even be able to kill a powerhouse at the peak of the Divine Saint Stage with the help of the Jasper Celestial Sword …'
If I break through to the Early Eminent Saint Stage, the Sun True Origin will transform as well. At that time, I might even be able to kill a powerhouse at the Early Exemplary Saint Stage after exhausting all the Sun True Origin in my body! '
Naturally, the Jasper Celestial Sword was Duan Lingtian's biggest trump card. He would not use it unless he had no other choice.
Moreover, if he used the Jasper Celestial Sword right from the beginning, it would hinder his cultivation.
If he relied too much on the Jasper Celestial Sword, it would only harm his cultivation in the future.
Due to this reason, he would not use the Jasper Celestial Sword unless it was absolutely necessary.
"Although I don't know where you get your confidence from, I still believe in you. In the next ten months, if you need anything, just let me know. All the resources in the Azure Cloud Mansion will be available to you unconditionally! "
Duan Rufeng said to Duan Lingtian.
In the end, he was influenced by Duan Lingtian's confidence and chose to believe in Duan Lingtian.
"Father, I don't need anything else … However, I'd like you to help me look for some materials."
When Duan Lingtian found out his cheapskate father was the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, he had thought of asking his father to help him look for the materials he needed to repair the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
With the Azure Cloud Mansion's influence in the Lower Province, it would be more efficient than the Mystical Sky Mansion to look for the materials.
"What materials?"
Duan Rufeng asked.
When Duan Rufeng took the blueprint from Duan Lingtian and saw the materials on it, he could not help but be stunned. "Aren't these the materials that the Mystical Sky Mansion has been searching for in recent years?"
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded. "I'm the one who asked the Mansion Master of Mystical Sky Mansion to help me look for these materials."
"You … You asked the Mansion Master of Mystical Sky Mansion to help you look for these materials?"
Duan Rufeng had a surprised expression on his face. "As far as I know, Mansion Master Meng Qing of Mystical Sky Mansion is very diligent in looking for these materials. Moreover, he even promised many rewards. You actually made him work so hard? Don't tell me he owes you a favor? "
"You can say that."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"As far as I know, a monstrous genius appeared in the Mystical Sky Mansion a few years ago. His name is Ling Tian. Tian 'er, he … Don't tell me you're him? "
Duan Rufeng asked.
If it was before, he would not have linked the Mystical Sky Mansion's genius, Ling Tian, to his son.
This was because he had asked Elder Ku to go to the Mystical Sky Mansion before. Elder Ku had confirmed that Ling Tian did not disguise himself. Moreover, that Ling Tian's appearance was different from his son's.
However, after witnessing his son's miraculous disguising technique, he had no choice but to link his son to Ling Tian again.
"That's right, it's me."
Duan Lingtian nodded with a smile. "Speaking of which, before I came to the Azure Cloud Mansion, I've been staying in the Mystical Sky Mansion. Oh right, Father, if someone reports his identity and says he's the Mystical Sky Mansion's disciple, Gu Li, please ask someone to invite him to the Main Mansion. He's my friend in the Mystical Sky Mansion, and he's the only one who knows my true identity! "
When he mentioned the Mystical Sky Mansion, Duan Lingtian could not help but think of Gu Li.
Previously, he had told Gu Li that once Gu Li was done dealing with the matters in the Mystical Sky Mansion, he would come to the Azure Cloud Mansion to look for him and they would head to the Upper Province together.
When he calculated the time, Gu Li should be here soon.
"Gu Li? The son of Guardian Gu Ci Yun of Mystical Sky Mansion, the strongest person on the Mystical Sky Ranking? "
Duan Rufeng raised an eyebrow. It was obvious he had heard of this genius disciple in the Mystical Sky Mansion.
"That's him!"
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"Since you told him your true identity, it means he's a trustworthy person. Since he's your friend, he's naturally a friend of the Azure Cloud Mansion as well. Don't worry, as long as he comes, I'll personally entertain him! "
Duan Rufeng said.
"Also, I heard that the genius Li Feng who appeared in the Rising Sky Mansion's district is the senior brother of the Mystical Sky Mansion's genius disciple, Ling Tian."
Duan Rufeng looked at Duan Lingtian again with a mischievous gleam in his eyes. "If I'm not mistaken, that Li Feng is also your disguise, right? The surname Li happens to be your mother's surname. Feng happens to be one of the characters in my name. I don't think this is a coincidence, right? "
"That's right. That Li Feng is also me."
Duan Lingtian nodded. There was no need to hide this in front of his father.
"Haha! To think I was wondering when such a young genius appeared in the Lower Province. I even wanted to recruit him to the Azure Cloud Mansion. It didn't cross my mind that he's actually my son!"
Duan Ru Feng laughed loudly, and his laughter was filled with pride.
He, Duan Rufeng, could not help but feel proud of his son for being so capable!
"Alright! I'll order Elder Rong to arrange for his men to search for these materials. Even if I have to turn the entire Lower Province upside down, I'll try my best to gather these materials and pass them to you! "
Duan Rufeng said confidently as he looked at the drawing in his hand again.
"Father, you told me before that it's all thanks to me that you're able to become the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion. What do you mean by that?"
Duan Lingtian suddenly recalled the words that Duan Rufeng had said to him a few days ago.
"If I'm not mistaken, the Devilseal Tablet in your hand should be something you obtained from the Swamp of Death in our hometown, right?"
