When Duan Lingtian's 10,000 Swords Territory appeared, Gu Long discovered that Duan Lingtian's strength was much stronger than his.
Although Duan Ling Tian's Territory was more powerful than his Territory, it was only on par with his Thousand Sabers Territory since it was only activated by the Saint Energy at the Mastery Exemplary Saint Stage.
"Do you think you can break my defense just by consolidating your Territory? How naive! "
Gu Long had a disdainful expression on his face when he looked at Duan Lingtian again.
Even if Duan Lingtian consolidated his Territory, he would not be able to break through his defense!
He still had this bit of confidence in himself.
"I don't plan to use my Territory to deal with you."
When Duan Lingtian saw the 10,000 Swords Territory had spread out and blocked the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples' view, he felt relieved. He turned around and said to Gu Long indifferently, "Duan Lingtian, don't worry.
When his words entered Gu Long's ears, it was like a bolt from the blue. At the same time, Gu Long's expression changed greatly. At the same time, fear appeared in his eyes.
"Stop trying to mystify me!"
Taking a deep breath, Gu Long suppressed the fear that rose in his heart for no reason and roared.
"Mystify me?"
Upon hearing Gu Long's words, Duan Lingtian merely shook his head and smiled. His nonchalant expression made Gu Long even more fearful.
In the end, Gu Long flew into a rage out of humiliation and attacked Duan Lingtian again.
'Otherworldly Celestial!'
As Duan Lingtian chanted inwardly, he shot up into the sky. With the help of the Golden Crow's Wings, he disappeared from Gu Long's sight in just a blink of an eye. It was as though he had vanished into thin air.
"Huh?"
Upon seeing this, Gu Long was stunned. He could not see what Duan Lingtian was doing at all.
As Duan Lingtian shot up into the sky, he also brought his 10,000 Swords Territory with him.
When Duan Lingtian disappeared into the sky, the 10,000 Swords Territory disappeared as well.
Gu Long's figure reappeared in front of the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples, including Gu Chun.
"Duan Lingtian seems to have gone up to the sky?"
"Could it be that the support-type divine ability he used is about to disappear?"
"It's possible!"
…
After a moment of silence, the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples began to whisper among themselves again.
"The effect of the support divine ability is about to wear off?"
When Gu Long who was still in a state of shock heard the whispers of the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples around him, a look of realization appeared on his face. "It seems like he was just deliberately mystifying things earlier!"
"Damn it! I was actually scared! "
When he thought about how he was scared out of his wits just now, Gu Long immediately felt ashamed and resentful.
In the next moment, he stomped his feet in the air and shot up into the sky like an arrow.
"Duan Lingtian, you're faster than me now … But once the effects of your support god art wear off, what are you going to use to fight me? You're dead meat! "
As he soared into the sky, Gu Long's heart was filled with joy. Those who didn't know would have thought that Duan Lingtian had already died in his hands.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
However, almost as soon as Gu Long soared into the sky, three short-lived sword cries resonated in the air and reverberated in all directions.
When the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples heard the cries, a gigantic golden light shield with a radius of 100 meters had already enveloped Gu Long.
"Stop!"
Before the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples could return to their senses, a furious shout resonated in the air from afar.
Based on the voice, it seemed like the person was still very far away.
"A Black Turtle Sanctum's elder?!"
Almost as soon as the shout resonated in the air, Duan Lingtian who was in the 10,000 Sword Territory had a change of expression. He immediately called out to Huo Lao, "Huo Lao, help me devour his Innate Spiritual Root!"
In front of Duan Lingtian, tens of thousands of golden sword rays gathered and formed a sword platform that supported Gu Long's body.
To be more precise, it was Gu Long's body.
At this moment, Gu Long's eyes were wide open as he lay there with a grievance.
There were three fatal wounds on his body that were still bleeding. These were the marks left behind by Duan Ling Tian when he cast his high-grade offensive Divine Ability, the Otherworldly Flying Sword, on Gu Long's body.
Currently, he could only summon two clones when he cast the Otherworldly Celestial.
Even so, with the Otherworldly Celestial and the profundity of the second stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword, Duan Lingtian easily breached Gu Long's defense and killed him before he could even react.
The entire process was as smooth as flowing water. It was extremely natural.
However, it was a pity.
Due to the 10,000 Sword Territory, the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples present on the scene did not see the most important scene where Gu Long was killed by Duan Lingtian in just three strikes.
"His Innate Spiritual Root is a blue Innate Spiritual Root!"
As Duan Lingtian called out to Huo Lao, Huo Lao extended his Divine Consciousness into the depths of Gu Long's soul to investigate and sense Gu Long's Innate Spiritual Root.
Huo Lao rarely paid attention to the situation outside so he had only just found out Gu Long possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root.
"Huo Lao, guide my Divine Consciousness to sense his Innate Spiritual Root. I must devour his Innate Spiritual Root before the Black Turtle Sanctum's elder arrives! He's already dead so his soul will dissipate soon. At that time, the blue Innate Spiritual Root will disappear as well. This is my last chance! "
As Duan Lingtian's Divine Consciousness entered Gu Long's soul, he hastily urged Huo Lao.
As Duan Ling Tian urged Elder Huo, he placed his hand on Gu Long's forehead and cast the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic. He was ready to attack at any time!
"Alright!"
When Huo Lao sensed Duan Lingtian's anxiousness, he did not dare to delay any longer. He quickly used his Divine Consciousness to guide Duan Lingtian's Divine Consciousness to sense Gu Long's Innate Spiritual Root. "His Innate Spiritual Root is of a higher grade than the one you devoured previously. For this reason, the aura in his Innate Spiritual Root is much denser.
"I've sensed it!"
As soon as Huo Lao finished speaking, Duan Lingtian immediately sensed Gu Long's Innate Spiritual Root.
Just as Huo Lao had said, Gu Long's Innate Spiritual Root was a blue Innate Spiritual Root. Its presence was much stronger than Gu Chun's Innate Spiritual Root that Duan Lingtian had devoured previously. For this reason, Duan Lingtian immediately sensed Gu Long's Innate Spiritual Root and locked onto it.
After locking onto Gu Long's Innate Spiritual Root with his Divine Consciousness, the next step was simple. Duan Lingtian could complete the task on his own.
As the saying went, 'Difficult the first time, easy the second time.' This was Duan Lingtian's second time devouring an Innate Spiritual Root.
He controlled the Devouring Energy and merged it with his Innate Spiritual Root before devouring Gu Long's Innate Spiritual Root.
'I didn't expect Gu Long to lose so much of his Innate Spiritual Root even though I acted so quickly …'
As Duan Lingtian sighed, he could clearly sense the changes in his Innate Spiritual Root. The speed at which he sensed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy was a few times faster than usual.
"Your Innate Spiritual Root has transformed from dark yellow to dark green!"
Huo Lao reminded Duan Lingtian in a timely manner.
"It's just as I expected."
Duan Lingtian was not surprised by this outcome.
No matter what, Gu Long's Innate Spiritual Root was a blue Innate Spiritual Root. Even if he lost some of it during the devouring process, it was still a piece of cake for him to transform his yellow Innate Spiritual Root into a green Innate Spiritual Root.
"Stop!"
At this moment, a loud shout resonated in the air again. It shocked Duan Lingtian so much that he regained his senses. He immediately withdrew his 10,000 Swords Territory.
When Duan Lingtian withdrew his 10,000 Swords Territory, he discovered two old figures had arrived near the residence of the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples.
Based on the robes the two old men were wearing, it was obvious they were the Black Turtle Sanctum's Silver Flame Elders!
One of them was no stranger to Duan Lingtian.
If it was any other time, the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples present on the scene would have bowed to the two old men.
However, at this moment, they were looking at the sky not far away.
As the Territory that resembled a golden light shield disappeared, a young man hovered in the air unscathed.
Not far away from him, a corpse fell from the sky. A moment later, it crashed heavily on the ground with a 'boom'.
Boom!
When the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples present on the scene heard this, they were shocked. When they regained their senses, an expression of disbelief appeared on their faces.
"H-How's this possible?!"
"Gu Long … Gu Long is dead! He's a Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage! "
"A Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage died in the hands of an Early Exemplary Saint Stage Martial Cultivator? Can someone tell me what the f * ck is going on? "
"Am I dreaming?"
…
The Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples present on the scene fell silent for a moment before an uproar broke out.
Goodness!
What did they just see?!
A genius Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage who possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root had died in the hands of an Early Exemplary Saint Stage Martial Cultivator who possessed a yellow Innate Spiritual Root!
If they did not see this with their own eyes, they would not have believed it even if they were beaten to death.
"Brother!"
A sorrowful cry rang in the air as a figure descended from the sky and appeared above Gu Long's corpse. His face turned pale as he looked at Gu Long's corpse.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that his cousin, whom he regarded as his savior, would actually die!
He had died in the hands of someone he hated to the core!
"How's this possible? Impossible …"
Gu Chun shook his head as he looked at Gu Long's corpse. In the end, he muttered to himself in disbelief, "You're not my brother! You're not my brother! My brother can't be so useless! My brother can't be so useless! "
"So he's your cousin who possesses a blue Innate Spiritual Root?"
In the next instant, an old figure appeared next to Gu Chun. He looked at Gu Long's corpse as he asked in a deep voice.
The appearance of this person immediately caused Gu Chun to quiver. He completely recovered from his shock.
"Master!"
