In the opinion of most of the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples, it was not a big deal.
Although Duan Lingtian was strong and had killed Gu Long, a disciple at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage from the Black Turtle Sanctum, it did not mean he was stronger than Zhang Ji.
Perhaps, in terms of innate talent, Gu Long possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root and was stronger than Zhang Ji.
However, in terms of strength:
Zhang Ji, however, was far from what Gu Long could compare to!
No matter what, Gu Long was only a disciple at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage in the Black Turtle Sanctum.
Zhang Ji was an Early Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouse in the Black Turtle Sanctum. Coupled with the fact that he was a Devil Cultivator who focused on tempering his body, his strength surpassed more than 80% of the Early Quintessential Saint Stage disciples in the Black Turtle Sanctum!
"The best among the Early Quintessential Saint Stage disciples in the Black Turtle Sanctum? A devil cultivator who focuses on body refinement? "
As more and more Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples gathered around, Duan Lingtian heard all kinds of whispers. He had a better understanding of Zhang Ji.
He did not miss any useful information.
As the saying goes, 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated!'
However, even if he knew about Zhang Ji's background, Duan Lingtian was not afraid at all. His face was calm and unperturbed.
Even if he had transformed into a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior ten days ago, he would still be able to fight an ordinary Early Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouse to a draw even if he unleashed all of his techniques. Naturally, he would still lose in the end.
Because the Elementary Devouring Technique consumed too much of his mental energy, he couldn't maintain it for long.
Today, his cultivation base had made another breakthrough. It would not be difficult for him to defeat an Early Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouse.
Even if Zhang Ji was an Early Quintessential Saint Stage Devil Cultivator, one of the strongest Early Quintessential Saint Stage disciples in the Black Turtle Sanctum, he was 80% confident he could defeat him!
The reason why he wasn't 100% sure was because he still didn't know if Zhang Ji had mastered any high-level divine ability.
If Zhang Ji grasped a high-grade divine ability, it would be difficult to defeat him.
The Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples present on the scene did not know about this.
Ten days ago, Duan Lingtian did not use his full strength in his battle with Gu Long. He still had the ability to transform into a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior.
The reason why he did not transform into a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior was because he felt that it was unnecessary. Even if he did not transform into a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior, he could still defeat and even kill Gu Long.
And the end result proved that this was indeed the case.
'I wonder if I'll be able to defeat Zhang Ji without transforming into a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior …' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.
Duan Lingtian stared at Zhang Ji calmly as he muttered in his heart.
In the upcoming battle with Zhang Ji, he did not plan to transform into a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior right from the beginning.
In fact, if it was not necessary, he did not even plan to transform into a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior.
The ability to transform into a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior was one of his trump cards. He did not intend to use it unless it was absolutely necessary.
A hidden trump card would often have a miraculous effect at a critical moment!
"He offended Elder Li An as soon as he entered the Black Turtle Sanctum after arriving at the Zoroastrianism? Ten days ago, with his cultivation base at the Early Exemplary Saint Stage, he managed to kill a disciple at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage who possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root with two powerful Divine Abilities that are suspected to be high-grade Divine Abilities? "
While Duan Lingtian gained a deeper understanding of Zhang Ji, Zhang Ji had also learned about Duan Lingtian's deeds from the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples. He was shocked as a hint of surprise flashed in the depth of his eyes.
It did not cross his mind that the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciple who wanted to challenge him to snatch his Secundus house was only an Early Exemplary Saint Stage Martial Cultivator.
At the very least, he was an Early Exemplary Saint Stage Martial Cultivator ten days ago!
However, since he had heard that Duan Lingtian had killed a Black Turtle Sanctum's disciple at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage, he did not dare to underestimate Duan Lingtian. At the very least, Duan Lingtian's strength could be considered as one of the best among those at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage.
This was especially true when Duan Lingtian cast his movement Divine Ability. His speed was comparable to an Early Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouse!
Zhang Ji had learned all of this from the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples who were spectating.
"I can't believe that the Black Turtle Sanctum would have such a great person like you, Duan Lingtian, when I was in closed-door cultivation. I'm sure you must have made a breakthrough in your cultivation base in the past ten days and entered the Intermediate Exemplary Saint Stage, right?"
Zhang Ji stared at Duan Lingtian as he spoke in a cold voice. He was trying to probe him when he reached the end of his sentence.
In his opinion, since Duan Lingtian did not have any intention of snatching the Secundus house, it was obvious he knew his place.
However, today, he wanted to snatch the Secundus house as soon as he came out. It was obvious he was confident in his strength.
"Why? Are you scared? "
Duan Lingtian asked indifferently as he smirked when he heard Zhang Ji's probing question.
"Scared?"
Under the watchful eyes of the others, Zhang Ji smirked when he heard Duan Lingtian's question. "Duan Lingtian, aren't you overthinking things? I admit that you're quite strong. Once you've broken through to the Intermediate Exemplary Saint Stage, you'll be able to fight with an ordinary Early Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouse! However, do you think I, Zhang Ji, can be compared to an ordinary Early Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouse?
Today, I, Zhang Ji, will let you know what it means by there's always someone better than you! "
When Zhang Ji reached the end of his smirk, he suddenly shouted and charged toward Duan Lingtian. He was as agile and swift as a swimming dragon.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
As Zhang Ji charged toward Duan Lingtian, the Devil Qi in a 100-meter radius around him skyrocketed and transformed into hundreds of Devil Shadows that were formed by pure Devil Qi.
In just a blink of an eye, half of the sky was shrouded by Devil Qi.
It was as though black clouds were pressing down on the city.
It felt as though black clouds were pressing down on the city.
"It's the Hundred Devils Territory!"
Many Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples could not help but exclaim.
"I can't believe Senior Brother Zhang Ji has already consolidated the Hundred Devils Territory. It seems like after learning about Duan Lingtian's deeds, he no longer dares to underestimate Duan Lingtian. He's not holding back at all!"
"Hurmph! Since Senior Brother Duan Lingtian dares to snatch the Secundus house today, he must have made a breakthrough just like Senior Brother Zhang Ji has guessed. Senior Brother Duan Lingtian who has broken through to the Intermediate Exemplary Saint Stage can fight an Early Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouse with his various techniques! Would Senior Brother Zhang Ji dare to be careless when facing an opponent who's comparable to an Early Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouse? "
"That's right. Although Senior Brother Zhang Ji can be considered as one of the best among Early Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouses, he's still an Early Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouse. He's not at the Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage or even higher! "
…
The Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples discussed among themselves as they stared intently at Zhang Ji who had consolidated the Hundred Devils Territory.
At this moment, Zhang Ji was charging toward Duan Lingtian at an extremely fast speed.
"Devil Convergence!"
Without warning, a loud cry resonated in everyone's ears. It was none other than Zhang Ji.
In the blink of an eye, the hundreds of demonic shadows in his Hundred Demons Domain rushed toward him at an extremely fast speed. In the end, his entire body was submerged within.
The hundreds of Devils seemed to have transformed into a Devil cloud that shrouded Zhang Ji. At the same time, they charged toward Duan Ling Tian at an even faster speed.
This speed was much faster than an ordinary Early Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouse!
"Elementary Devouring Tactic!"
"Golden Crow's Wings!"
Faced with the ferocious Devil Cloud, Duan Lingtian's expression turned grave immediately. He instantly cast the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, and devoured all the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in his surroundings. Then, he activated the Sun Saint Energy that had been strengthened.
In the next moment, the Golden Crow's Wings flew out from Duan Ling Tian's back and flapped violently.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
When the pair of huge wings that were burning with raging flames flapped, the air in the surroundings was compressed to the extreme, causing thunderous explosions to reverberate in the air.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian increased the distance between him and the Devil Cloud at a speed that was slightly faster than the Devil Cloud.
During this process, Duan Lingtian discovered the Devil Cloud was shrinking rapidly!
In the end, it actually transformed into a black armor that was suffused with a dense and cold demonic aura. It covered Zhang Ji's body, causing the originally tall and large Zhang Ji to appear as though he had transformed into a demonic god with an oppressive baleful aura.
"His Territory can be used like this?"
Upon seeing this, Duan Lingtian could not help but feel a little surprised.
However, what surprised Duan Lingtian even more was yet to come.
"Demonic Shadow!"
With a soft cry, Zhang Ji, who was wearing the black armor, activated his Saint Energy and cast an Intermediate-level movement Divine Ability. After leaving behind a Demonic Shadow, his speed increased again.
At this moment, in terms of speed, he was actually on par with Duan Lingtian!
"Duan Lingtian, I've caught up with the speed that you rely on the most … What other tricks do you have? Just use them now!"
As he shouted, the Devil Qi on Zhang Ji's body increased again. He activated the Devil Qi in his body without any reservation, and his speed increased again.
Although the increase was not much, it allowed him to be slightly faster than Duan Lingtian. He was slowly closing the distance between him and Duan Lingtian.
If this continued, it would not take long for him to catch up to Duan Lingtian.
"Duan Lingtian is about to be caught up!"
"Ten days ago, Duan Lingtian fought with Gu Long. He relied on his speed after casting his movement Divine Ability. If it wasn't for the fact that his speed is much faster than Gu Long, he wouldn't be a match for Gu Long at all!"
"That's right. Senior Brother Duan Lingtian's biggest advantage is his speed. Now that he's caught up to him, doesn't this mean he's going to be a piece of meat on Senior Brother Zhang Ji's chopping board? "
"I can't believe this battle is going to end as soon as it has just begun."
…
Upon seeing this, many Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples shook their heads. They felt the result of this battle would be out soon.
"Junior Brother Duan Lingtian?"
Even Jiang Chu could not help but frown at this moment.
