'Unfortunately, my Sun Saint Origin is almost depleted so I can't chase after Hao Shuang's soul. Moreover, my soul is only at the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage so I can't use my Soul Attack to chase after Hao Shuang's soul!'
Duan Lingtian sighed inwardly when he saw Hao Shuang's soul escaping.
It was not that he did not want to kill Hao Shuang, but there was nothing he could do.
After Hao Shuang used the Soul Detaching Technique that was unique to powerhouses at or above the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, his soul's speed was comparable to an ordinary powerhouse at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.
'However, based on Hao Shuang's words before he escaped, it seems like he hates Xuanzha Buddhism as well.'
Duan Lingtian's expression turned strange when he recalled Hao Shuang's words. 'Based on his tone, it seems like he hates Xuanzha Buddhism more than Zoroastrianism!'
Duan Lingtian could understand why Hao Shuang was acting this way.
After all, Hao Shuang was here because he had accepted Xuanzha Buddhism's invitation.
However, Hao Shuang had lost his body because of Xuanzha Buddhism's invitation. His soul had left his body and was forced to flee.
Now that his body was dead, his soul could no longer possess it. He could only steal another person's body or reconstruct his own.
Compared to stealing another person's body, it was better to reconstruct his own body since that was the only way he could regain his strength.
Naturally, it would take a long time to reconstruct his own body.
In any case, Hao Shuang had accepted Xuanzha Buddhism's offer to help, but he ended up going for wool and coming home shorn.
This was something he did not expect even in his wildest dreams.
'Hao Shuang must hate Xuanzha Buddhism to the core. He must hate Xuanzha Buddhism for inviting him to help before he figured out my strength. Otherwise, he wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable state!'
Putting himself in Hao Shuang's shoes, Duan Lingtian could understand Hao Shuang's feelings.
If Hao Shuang had known that he had such strength, he would not have appeared here even if Xuanzha Buddhism had given him so many benefits.
"However, even I didn't expect that the Celestial Supreme Treasure, the Jasper Celestial Sword, would be able to unleash such a powerful attack when I infused it with my Sun Saint Origin that was enhanced by the Elementary Devouring Tactic!"
When Duan Lingtian recalled how the Jasper Celestial Sword easily destroyed Hao Shuang's attack and knocked away the Super Sacred Artifact, the Dharma Rod, he could not help but feel slightly shocked.
One had to know that even before he made his move, he wasn't sure what the outcome would be.
After all, Hao Shuang was the strongest person below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in the Dao Martial Saint Land. Moreover, he possessed the Dharma Rod, the Super Saint Weapon. If he unleashed his full strength, he would be invincible among those below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.
For this reason, Duan Lingtian did not hesitate to reveal his Celestial Supreme Treasure, the Jasper Celestial Sword, in front of everyone. He was not certain if his attack would be able to match Hao Shuang's full strength.
At that time, he felt slightly anxious.
When the results came out, he was shocked, but at the same time, he knew that he had been overthinking things.
If he was not there, Hao Shuang's attack would be considered invincible among those below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.
However, compared to his attack, even Hao Shuang's full strength would pale in comparison.
"Actually, the power contained in my attack was not much different from the power contained in his attack. However, at that level of power, the difference of a hair's breadth is like a thousand miles! That's why he was defeated so miserably. '
When Duan Lingtian thought about this, he could not help but feel relieved. 'If I didn't inject all my Sun Saint Origin into the Jasper Celestial Sword and used a portion of my Sun Saint Origin to cast the Universe Ruler's Divine Ability, the Universe Teleportation, or to form the 10,000 Swords Territory to conceal the Jasper Celestial Sword's attack …
'The Jasper Celestial Sword's attack might not be comparable to Hao Shuang's full strength attack. If that's the case, the outcome would've been reversed! I would've been the one who was defeated or killed. '
When Duan Lingtian thought about this, he broke out in cold sweat.
He suddenly felt it was a wise decision to risk exposing his Celestial Supreme Treasure, the Jasper Celestial Sword, to fight with Hao Shuang. [Zero ↑ Nine △ Little ↑ Say △ Net]
Even if he had to expose the Jasper Celestial Sword, it was worth it.
After all, he had saved his life.
Thoughts flashed through Duan Ling Tian's mind as he thought of one idea after another.
The people present on the scene finally regained their senses.
Everyone present on the scene was shocked by what they had seen.
Many people even wondered if they were dreaming. There were even some who couldn't help but pinch their own thighs and slap themselves to make sure that they weren't dreaming.
One move to determine the outcome!
This was what Duan Lingtian, the Guardian of Zoroastrianism, had suggested to Hao Shuang, the sectless cultivator who was ranked fifth on the Supreme Saint Ranking.
Hao Shuang was widely acknowledged as the strongest person below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in the Dao Martial Saint Land. Moreover, he possessed the Dharma Rod, the Super Saint Weapon. If he unleashed his full strength, it would definitely be the strongest attack below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.
This was what everyone present on the scene thought as well.
When Hao Shuang made his move, they were certain Duan Lingtian would either be killed or severely injured.
However, the outcome was like a joke to them.
At the most critical moment, Duan Lingtian had used his sword wielding technique and bestowed it with a destructive force. Not only did he send Hao Shuang's Super Saint Weapon, the Dharma Rod, flying, but he had also killed Hao Shuang's body.
In the end, Hao Shuang was forced to use the Soul Detaching Technique that was unique to powerhouses at or above the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage to abandon his body and escape.
At that time, everyone was shocked.
Although Hao Shuang had left behind a threat before he escaped, it did not bring them back to their senses.
This was because this was the strongest shock they had ever experienced in their lives, the most inconceivable shock, the most unbelievable shock!!
When everyone regained their senses, they turned to look at Duan Lingtian in unison. Their eyes and faces were filled with shock and disbelief.
Duan Lingtian finally spoke.
"Everyone from the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect."
Duan Lingtian looked at the people from the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect and said calmly, "Since the Devil Clans from the Land of Exile could invade the Upper Province at any time, I didn't want to see the humans lose any more powerhouses. That's why I only destroyed Hao Shuang's body to teach him a lesson. I didn't destroy his soul.
I don't think any of you have any objections to this, right?
After all, when he left, it seemed like he hated the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect very much. After he recovers, I'm sure he'll seek revenge on the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect. "
A hint of mockery could be seen in Duan Lingtian's eyes when he spoke.
The faces of the people from the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect turned pale when they heard Duan Lingtian's words.
This was especially so for the Sect Leader of the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect and the two kings of the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect. They were puzzled why Duan Lingtian did not seize the opportunity to destroy Hao Shuang's soul.
After all, with the strength that Duan Lingtian had displayed previously, it would not be difficult for him to destroy Hao Shuang's soul if he made another move.
However, when they heard Duan Lingtian's words, they were stunned.
At this moment, they realized Duan Ling Tian had done this on purpose!
He did not destroy Hao Shuang's soul on purpose so that Hao Shuang could seek revenge on the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect after he recovered.
Duan Lingtian wanted to kill Hao Shuang with a borrowed knife.
They did not believe Duan Lingtian when he said that he had held back because the Devil Clan was about to invade the Upper Province.
Why did he kill one of the Four Kings of the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect, the Golden Lion King, Xie Kang Xun, if he did not want the humans to lose any more powerhouses because the Devil Clan was about to invade the Upper Province.
"Guardian Ling Tian, this is …"
The people from the Zoroastrianism Sect could not help but smile when they heard Duan Lingtian's words to the people from the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect.
Their understanding of Duan Lingtian was similar to that of the people from the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect.
They felt that Duan Lingtian did not kill Hao Shuang on purpose so that Hao Shuang could seek revenge on the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect in the future.
"However, judging from Hao Shuang's shout when he left, he was not only targeting Xuanzha Buddhism, but also Zoroastrianism."
The two Deputy Sect Leaders of Zoroastrianism furrowed their brows in dissatisfaction. "Guardian Ling Tian's decision is inappropriate. If Hao Shuang makes a comeback in the future, I'm afraid he won't only target Xuanzha Buddhism, but also Zoroastrianism!"
However, even though they were unhappy that Duan Lingtian had intentionally let Hao Shuang go, they did not dare to say anything.
They all knew in their hearts:
After today's battle, Guardian Ling Tian from the Zoroastrianism would definitely become famous in the Dao Martial Saint Land. Moreover, he would replace Hao Shuang and become the strongest person below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in the Dao Martial Saint Land!
How could they question the actions of such an existence?
After today, even the Sect Leader of Zoroastrianism would treat Ling Tian differently.
Let alone them!
However, whether it was the people from the Xuanzha Buddhism Sect or the people from the Zoroastrianism Sect, they were unaware that this was not the truth.
The reason Duan Lingtian did not chase after Hao Shuang's soul was because he wanted to seize the opportunity to kill Hao Shuang …
It was not because he was worried that the Devil Clans would invade the Upper Province and he did not want the humans to lose any more powerhouses.
It was not because he wanted to spare Hao Shuang's life so that Hao Shuang could seek revenge on Xuanzha Buddhism Sect in the future.
It was because Duan Lingtian was at his limit.
Right now, he was like an arrow at the end of its flight. He no longer had the strength to chase after Hao Shuang's soul and kill him!
