"Lord City Governor, if that's the case, won't Duan Lingtian be in danger?"
Old Hong gasped when he heard Liu Feng Gu's words. A hint of dread could be seen on his face as he said, "Lord City Governor, why don't you use a Communication Celestial Talisman to inform him about this?
If he receives your message, he'll be able to prepare himself and think of a way to deal with the threat from Zhou Tong. "
Old Hong said.
"Old Hong."
Liu Feng Gu sighed when he heard Old Hong's words. "I've thought about this as well. However, do you think my Communication Celestial Talisman will reach the county city?
Unless I have a Communication Celestial Talisman inscribed by a Great Overarching Golden Celestial or stronger, the chances of it reaching the county city are slim, let alone entering the County Governor's estate and reaching Duan Lingtian. "
A Communication Celestial Talisman was a Communication Celestial Talisman.
Immortal Message Talismans were also divided into different grades. The higher the cultivation level of the Immortal Message Talisman, the faster the transmission speed. Moreover, it could prevent others from intercepting the transmission of the Immortal Message Talisman.
For example, Liu Feng Gu was a Great Overarching Golden Celestial Talisman.
Liu Feng Gu was an Indigo Sun Golden Celestial. Although he had Communication Celestial Talismans, they were all inscribed by him.
Any Communication Celestial Talisman he inscribed could be intercepted by a Indigo Sun Golden Celestial or stronger.
The distance between Bloody Specter City and the county city of Nine Specters County was huge. His Immortal Message Talisman would most likely be intercepted halfway. It was unlikely that it would reach the county city of Nine Specters County and the County Governor's Residence.
For a Communication Celestial Talisman to successfully transmit a message from Bloody Specter City to the county city of Nine Specters County, it had to be inscribed by a Great Overarching Golden Celestial.
This was because only a Great Overarching Golden Celestial or stronger could intercept a Communication Celestial Talisman inscribed by a Great Overarching Golden Celestial.
For example, after Zhou Fei's limbs were severed by Duan Lingtian, the Communication Celestial Talisman he used to send a message to his foster father, Zhou Tong, was personally inscribed by his foster father, a yellow-rank Great Overarching Golden Celestial.
Moreover, even if I have a Communication Celestial Talisman inscribed by a Great Overarching Golden Celestial, do you think Zhou Tong would still ask me to use a Communication Celestial Talisman to contact Duan Lingtian since he already knows about Duan Lingtian's background? "
I'm almost certain that even if either of us went to the County City of Nine Specters County or the County Governor's Estate, we wouldn't be able to see Duan Lingtian! "
At this point, Liu Feng Gu paused for a moment before continuing.
"Therefore, we can't help Duan Lingtian in any way … He can only rely on himself."
Liu Fenggu said.
Upon hearing Liu Feng Gu's words, Elder Hong fell silent.
After giving it some thought, Liu Feng Gu's words made sense.
After Elder Hong left, Liu Feng Gu's tense expression finally relaxed. He let out a long sigh as he said, "Duan Lingtian, I hope you'll be able to escape this calamity. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to seek revenge from Zhou Tong."
Liu Feng Gu could imagine what would happen if Zhou Tong was killed.
If something happened to Duan Lingtian, Zhou Tong would definitely not let him off.
After all, Zhou Tong did not want another Duan Lingtian to appear.
In the past, Zhou Tong did not feel threatened by Liu Feng Gu. Out of respect for the County Governor of Nine Specters County, Zhou Tong could not be bothered to make things difficult for Liu Feng Gu.
However, Duan Lingtian had appeared in Bloody Specter City this time.
Moreover, before Duan Lingtian went to the County Governor's Estate, Zhou Tong had treated Duan Lingtian so well and provided him with the best cultivation environment and resources.
As long as Zhou Tong was not an idiot, he would definitely feel threatened by Liu Feng Gu.
Once Zhou Tong dealt with Duan Ling Tian, there was no way he would allow Duan Ling Tian to continue living in Bloody Specter City to prevent another threat like Duan Ling Tian.
At this moment, Liu Feng Gu was almost certain.
If something happened to Duan Lingtian, Liu Feng Gu would definitely die.
"Lord City Governor."
The leader of the Golden Serpent Guards, Elder Hong, had returned and said to Liu Feng Gu, "Liu Feng Gu, Elder Hong.
He said to Liu Feng Gu, "A year ago, we received news from the County Governor's Estate that King Qin's Mansion will be holding the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties. The county behind the top three participants will be able to obtain the Mediocre Celestial Pill, the Great Overarching Pill.
Because of this, Lord County Governor didn't make things difficult for Duan Lingtian even though he violated the rules set by Lord County Governor. Instead, Lord County Governor even ordered Elder Zheng Qiu to take the blame for Duan Lingtian to protect Duan Lingtian.
Based on this, it's clear that Lord County Governor values Duan Lingtian a lot and has placed all his hopes on Duan Lingtian to obtain the Mediocre Celestial Pill, the Great Overarching Pill.
You and I both know that Lord County Governor's cultivation base has reached a bottleneck many years ago and hasn't improved since then. Therefore, he's determined to obtain the Great Overarching Pill this time!
Under such circumstances, for the sake of the Great Overarching Pill and the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties, he'll definitely protect Duan Lingtian. "
Elder Hong paused for a moment before he continued.
"Lord City Governor, why don't you tell Lord County Governor everything you know about Duan Lingtian? Let Lord County Governor protect Duan Lingtian so that Duan Lingtian won't be harmed by Zhou Tong. "
Elder Hong finished his sentence in one breath.
"I've thought about this as well."
Liu Feng Gu sighed and said, "However, you're oversimplifying things …"
"Let's not talk about whether Zhou Tong will allow us to contact Lord County Governor. Even if we manage to contact Lord County Governor, do you think he won't become a second Zhou Tong? After all, the temptation of a heaven-grade Celestial Method and Divine Ability is greater than the Mediocre Celestial Pill, the Great Overarching Pill. "
Liu Feng Gu said.
Upon hearing Liu Feng Gu's words, Elder Hong could not help but smile bitterly. "My thoughts aren't as thorough as yours, Lord City Governor. I should've thought of this earlier. It's impossible that you haven't thought of the idea of Lord County Governor protecting Duan Lingtian.
It seems like we can only rely on Duan Lingtian this time. "
Elder Hong sighed when he reached the end of his sentence.
Duan Lingtian was unaware of what was happening in Bloody Specter City.
At this moment, he was still in closed-door cultivation.
Ever since Duan Ling Tian obtained the bottle of primitive Celestial Pills, the Hidden Spirit Pills, from the County Governor of Nine Specters County, he had been immersed in his cultivation. Even after he had a breakthrough, he continued to cultivate in order to break through to the next level.
Apart from that, he continued to absorb the Hidden Spirit Pill, the primitive Celestial Pill, into his body.
He had completely lost track of time as he cultivated.
Although he had encountered some bottlenecks in his cultivation and his cultivation speed had slowed down, he did not stop cultivating. He continued to circulate the yellow-grade cultivation method, the Secret Crystal Clearance Technique. His Celestial Origin Energy worked with the Hidden Spirit Pill and the Spirit Containment Pill as he continued to circulate the energy in his body.
Naturally, during this process, Duan Lingtian's cultivation environment and the prominent Celestial Stones in his possession played a huge role as well.
'There's only one Hidden Spirit Pill left … I hope the last Hidden Spirit Pill will be able to help me break through the bottleneck and break through to the next level!'
In the stone chamber in the deepest part of the Latent Dragon Abyss, Duan Lingtian raised his hand and brought the last primitive Celestial Pill, the Hidden Spirit Pill, into his hand. Then, he popped it into his mouth and swallowed it.
A rich medicinal energy flowed down his throat and spread to his entire body in just a blink of an eye.
'Spirit Hardening Pill!'
Following that, Duan Lingtian consumed another primitive Celestial Pill, the Spirit Hardening Pill. 'Coincidentally, there's not much medicinal energy left in the previous Spirit Hardening Pill. Now that I've consumed another Spirit Hardening Pill, I'll try to break through this bottleneck in one go!'
After consuming the medicinal pill, Duan Ling Tian concentrated his mind and calmed his qi before once again immersing himself in cultivation. Only the thought of cultivation remained in his mind, and his mind was completely devoid of distracting thoughts.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian was still unaware that someone in the Latent Dragon Abyss was waiting for him in the Latent Dragon Abyss.
In the County Governor's Manor, there was someone waiting for him to come out of seclusion. Furthermore, the person was very patient and had been waiting for several months.
'Damn it! That Duan Lingtian still hasn't come out of his closed-door cultivation … He's only a Heavenly Celestial. No matter how good the cultivation environment is, no matter how many cultivation resources he has, he should've encountered a bottleneck and come out for a breather, right? It's been almost a year and a half, but he still hasn't come out of his closed-door cultivation! '
In the second last cultivation room in the Latent Dragon Abyss, Zhou Fei who had just returned from outside had a grave expression on his face.
It had been a few months since he and his godfather, Zhou Tong, had returned from Bloody Specter City.
During these few months, they had been waiting for Duan Lingtian to come out of his closed-door cultivation.
After all, they could not directly attack Duan Lingtian in the Latent Dragon Abyss. If they did, the County Governor of Nine Specters County would be alerted. At that time, they might not even be able to snatch the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities from Duan Lingtian.
As the saying went, the older the ginger, the spicier it was. Zhou Tong had been waiting patiently for Duan Lingtian to come out of his closed-door cultivation.
Zhou Fei, on the other hand, was gradually losing his patience after waiting for a few months.
However, he could only wait patiently. Every once in a while, he would come out of his room to check if there were any movements in the room below.
Two months later.
Boom!
Rumble!!
…
All of a sudden, a series of loud noises rang in the deepest part of the Latent Dragon Abyss. It was as though an earth-shattering explosion had occurred.
Even the stone room at the top that was closest to the Latent Dragon Abyss trembled slightly.
Naturally, the tremors were only limited to the stone room.
The stone rooms above the Latent Dragon Abyss did not tremble at all.
After all, the Latent Dragon Abyss was built under the supervision of the County Governor of Nine Specters County.
'This tremor … It's coming from Duan Lingtian's stone room!'
In the second last stone room in the Latent Dragon Abyss, Zhou Fei who was sitting cross-legged suddenly opened his eyes with an excited expression on his face.
