"He's dead?"
"What … What's going on?"
"How's this possible?! Not only did Senior Brother Yang Wen consume a forbidden pill, but he even mastered the high-grade offensive Divine Ability, the Descent of the Spear Emperor. With such strength, isn't it easy for him to kill Duan Lingtian? How did he get killed by Duan Lingtian instead? "
"What's that sword cry earlier? Not only did it suppress the waves of buzzing sword howls, when it resounded, it crushed Senior Brother Yang Wen's attack with an unstoppable force … Even the bloody hole between Senior Brother Yang Wen's brows is very likely to have been pierced through by the sword move that caused that sword howl! "
"How's it possible for Duan Lingtian to be so powerful?!"
…
Liu Yun and the three Palace Of Death Bronze Flame Elders were still in shock when 90% of the Saint Land disciples in the spectator seats in the Death Arena rose to their feet in unison. All of them had an expression of disbelief on their faces.
"I must be dreaming! I must be dreaming! "
One of the Holy Land disciples cried out in shock. Then, he reached out and slapped himself. The burning pain on his face left him dumbfounded. "It's not a dream … It's actually not a dream! How's this possible?! "
"What sword technique did Duan Lingtian cast? From the beginning until the end, I couldn't even see his sword when he cast his sword technique! "
"His sword is so terrifyingly fast. I'm afraid only those at the Saint Celestial Stage or above would be able to catch his sword technique."
…
As the group of Saint Land disciples discussed among themselves, they shifted their attention to the four Palace Of Death's elders led by Nie Zui, the custodian of the Palace Of Death. The four of them were at the Saint Celestial Stage or above.
Many people's gazes also landed on Liu Yun.
Some of them shifted their attention to Cha Jin, the person who had the highest chance of becoming a true disciple among the Saint Land's elite disciples.
"Senior Brother Cha Jin, can you see Duan Lingtian's sword technique clearly?"
One of the Saint Land disciples could not help but ask.
"I can't see clearly."
Zha Jin shook his head before he said solemnly, "It's impossible for someone whose cultivation base hasn't reached the Saint Celestial Stage to see Duan Lingtian's sword technique clearly. His sword technique is too fast! It's terrifyingly fast!"
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
…
Although they had some guesses, the surrounding disciples couldn't help sucking in a breath of cold air when they heard Cha Jin's words.
"He's a Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage, yet only those at the Saint Celestial Stage and above can see through his sword technique? If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it! "
Many disciples of the Holy Lands exclaimed.
"In that case, I'm afraid that among the people present, only the four elders of the Hall of Life and Death and senior brother Liu Yun are able to clearly see Duan Lingtian's sword move?"
The gazes of even more Holy Land disciples fell on Nie Zui, Liu Yun, and the other four.
"Senior Brother Liu Yun and the three Bronze Flame Elders of the Hall of Life and Death don't look right …"
"I noticed it long ago! Their expressions have been strange since just now. "
"Don't tell me they're the same as us and didn't see Duan Lingtian's sword technique clearly?"
"How's this possible?!"
…
While the group of Holy Land disciples was whispering among themselves …
One of the Bronze Flame Elders from the Hall of Life and Death said in a loud voice, "I could see Duan Lingtian's sword technique clearly in the beginning. But in the end, that sword move that gave rise to a sword whistle that sounded like the cry of a phoenix … I'm ashamed that I couldn't even catch a glimpse of that sword shadow. "
"Same here."
"Same here."
The other two Bronze Flame Elders nodded as well.
"Same here."
At the same time, Liu Yun who was being stared at by many people nodded solemnly as well.
After the three Bronze Flame Elders from the Hall of Life and Death and Liu Yun made their stand, the entire Hall of Life and Death descended into a deathly silence.
At this moment, even if a needle was thrown to the ground, the sound would be audible.
The group of people present on the scene, including the custodian of the Hall of Life and Death, Nie Zui, was stunned.
Even Nie Zui did not expect this.
The three Palace Of Death's Bronze Flame Elders and the true disciple, Liu Yun, did not even see the sword technique Duan Ling Tian cast at the end.
Since Nie Zui's line of sight was blocked by Duan Lingtian's body and he did not react in time, he did not see Duan Lingtian's final sword technique. It was also the most crucial sword technique.
That sword strike had directly destroyed the attack of the Spear Emperor Phantom and destroyed it. Moreover, it had killed Yang Wen before he could even react!
From the smile on Yang Wen's face when he died, one could tell he did not react in time until the moment he was killed.
Based on this, one could see how fast Duan Lingtian's sword technique was.
Whoosh!
While the people in the Hall of Life and Death were still stunned, Duan Lingtian flew out and landed next to Yang Wen's body in the Death Arena.
He only sighed in relief after he was certain Yang Wen's soul had been destroyed.
Previously, when they were still in the Dobusei Subterranean, Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, did not die even after his glabella was pierced by Duan Lingtian's sword.
With this as an example, Duan Lingtian was, naturally, terrified.
'What a pity … There are so many Saint Celestial Stage powerhouses here. Even if I consolidate my 10,000 Swords Territory, it won't be able to block their line of sight. '
As Duan Lingtian stood next to Yang Wen's body, he really wanted to devour Yang Wen's Innate Spiritual Root that had yet to dissipate. However, he held himself back in the end.
Devouring Yang Wen's Innate Spiritual Root would definitely attract the attention of the few Saint Celestial Stage powerhouses.
The custodian of the Palace of Life and Death, Nie Zui, would definitely be able to see through him.
Although the 10,000 Swords Territory was consolidated with the Sun Saint Energy, once it was consolidated, it would form a golden fireball with a radius of 100 meters that could block other people's line of sight.
However, with Duan Lingtian's current strength, the 10,000 Swords Territory consolidated with the Sun Saint Energy could only block the line of sight of those below the Saint Celestial Stage.
His 10,000 Swords Territory would not be able to block the line of sight of those at the Saint Celestial Stage or above.
Otherwise, he could have cast his 10,000 Swords Territory to envelop Yang Wen and himself. Moreover, he could have cast the sword wielding technique from the third stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword and used the Jasper Celestial Sword to kill Yang Wen.
He would not have had to waste so much effort.
Duan Lingtian only had one goal in mind when he fought with Yang Wen.
He wanted Nie Zui, the custodian of the Palace of Life and Death, to lower his guard.
This was because he had learned from Huo Lao that the Jasper Celestial Sword's Innate Spiritual Root could not be used.
With his current strength, only a powerhouse at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage or above would be able to capture the movements of the Jasper Celestial Sword when he wielded the Jasper Celestial Sword at the Third Form of the Sovereign Heart Sword.
As for Liu Yun and the other three Bronze Flame Elders in the Palace of Life and Death, they might be able to capture the movement of the Hundred Inscriptions Saint Sword when he used the sword wielding technique from the third stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword. However, they would not be able to capture the movement of the Jasper Celestial Sword.
"However, that move of the Jasper Celestial Sword has almost depleted all of my strength."
At this moment, Duan Lingtian felt a sense of emptiness in his body. He had almost depleted all of his Sun Saint Energy.
Apart from that, the exhaustion had also caused the effect of the Devouring Tactic to disappear completely.
At this moment, even an ordinary Quintessential Saint Stage Martial Cultivator would be able to easily kill Duan Lingtian.
From the very beginning, Duan Lingtian had been setting up a trap to kill Yang Wen.
Naturally, this trap was not targeted at Yang Wen. Instead, it was targeted at the custodian of the Palace of Life and Death, Nie Zui. He did not want Nie Zui to discover the Jasper Celestial Sword in his hand.
After all, if the Jasper Celestial Sword was exposed, it would only bring disaster to him.
Due to this reason, Duan Ling Tian did not take Yang Wen seriously from the beginning.
He was merely a Martial Cultivator at the First Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.
If he had fully activated the Jasper Celestial Sword with the third stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword, he would have been able to kill a powerhouse at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.
'Although the Jasper Celestial Sword is the main reason why I was able to kill Yang Wen today, the third stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword, the Sword Wielding the Heart, has given me the sword wielding technique as well.'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
Duan Lingtian was confident that he would be able to kill Yang Wen because of the third stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword, the Sword Wielding the Heart, and the Celestial Supreme Treasure, the Jasper Celestial Sword.
"Elder Nie Zui!"
At the same time, Duan Lingtian used his remaining Sun Saint Energy to soar into the air and arrived next to the custodian of the Palace of Life and Death, Nie Zui. He handed his Crystal Card over. "You can return this Crystal Card to me after deducting 400,000 Contribution Points from the contribution points I earned."
Nie Zui only regained his senses when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. He stared at Duan Lingtian intently.
He did not rush to take Duan Lingtian's Crystal Card nor did he rush to return the Sun Shooting Bow to Duan Lingtian. Instead, he asked Duan Lingtian meaningfully, "Duan Lingtian, don't tell me you intentionally avoided me when you executed your last move?"
It was no wonder Nie Zui thought that way.
Duan Lingtian had fought with Yang Wen for a long time. In the beginning, Nie Zui's vision was not obstructed at all. However, at the critical moment, Duan Lingtian's body blocked his vision so he did not see how Duan Lingtian executed his last move.
Nie Zui felt it was too much of a coincidence.
"Elder Nie Zui, what do you mean by that? I intentionally avoided you when I executed my last move? Why would you say that? "
Although Duan Lingtian was shocked by Nie Zui's speculation, a confused expression appeared on his face. He could not see any flaws in his words.
Nie Zui stared at Duan Lingtian intently, trying to find a flaw in Duan Lingtian's expression. However, he could not find anything in the end.
'Could it be that I'm overthinking things?'
At this moment, he could not help but think to himself.
The moment he thought of this, he did not dwell on this matter for the time being. He raised his hand and returned the Sun Shooting Bow to Duan Lingtian before he took the Crystal Card from Duan Lingtian.
