Before Duan Lingtian, Situ Ming, Yang Chong, and Yu Zhong Jing regained their senses, Bai Ping, the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, vanished into thin air.
Only his voice was left, echoing in the ears of Duan Lingtian and the other three.
"Master Duan, I'll go and see the Old Ancestor now … I'm sure the Old Ancestor will be willing to use the Tai Yi Celestial Sect's King Grade Celestial Weapon as a stake to support you!"
Listening to Bai Ping.
It was obvious he was going to look for He Shan, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, who was also the only Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, to inform him that Duan Lingtian would be participating in the Alchemy Conference in two years and that he wanted to make a bet with someone.
After witnessing the Duan Lingtian's insane heating speed, Bai Ping was filled with confidence in the Duan Lingtian!
"This …"
Yu Zhongjing was dumbfounded.
"I really didn't expect the Sect Master to have such a crazy side."
Situ Ming smiled wryly. He had known the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect for many years, but this was his first time seeing the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect lose his composure.
'If I can bet a King Grade Celestial Weapon on top of three Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities, I can even bet a Duke Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability that has both offensive and defensive attributes.'
Yang Chong sighed.
"A triple-trait Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Ability?"
As soon as Yang Chong finished speaking, Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up again.
As mentioned earlier, the value of Immortal Techniques and Divine Abilities that were both offensive and defensive, as well as Immortal Techniques and Divine Abilities that were both offensive and defensive were far more valuable than a single Immortal Technique or Divine Ability of the same level.
In fact, the value of an Immortal Technique or Divine Ability that had both offensive and defensive attributes was comparable to three or more Immortal Techniques or Divine Abilities of the same level.
On the other hand, Immortal Techniques and Divine Abilities that were both offensive and defensive were more valuable than Immortal Techniques and Divine Abilities that were both offensive and defensive, as well as movement techniques and Divine Abilities that were both offensive and defensive.
Even if a person had completely mastered an offensive and defensive Immortal Art or divine ability, he would still need to master another movement Immortal Art or divine ability.
Even if a person completely comprehended an offensive and speedy Celestial Method or Divine Ability, he would still have to comprehend another defensive Celestial Method or Divine Ability.
However, once he directly comprehended an offensive, defensive, and offensive Immortal Technique or Divine Ability, he wouldn't have to comprehend another single Immortal Technique or Divine Ability, and he would be able to accomplish it in one go.
On the other hand, for the same person with the same talent, it would take less time to comprehend a Celestial Method or Divine Ability that had both offensive and defensive attributes than to comprehend multiple Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities.
It was just like how it was more efficient for a cultivator to comprehend an offensive and defensive immortal art or divine ability than to comprehend two divine abilities at the same time.
Among Immortal Spells and Divine Abilities of the same level, the most effective ones were the movement techniques or Divine Abilities that had both offense, speed, and defense!
"The Supreme Sword Dao Mental Cultivation Method that Senior Feng Qingyang left to me, the Sovereign Heart Sword, is equivalent to an Earthly Grade Celestial Method that has both offense, speed, and defense!"
Duan Lingtian had experienced the Sovereign Heart Sword, an Earthly Grade Celestial Method that was similar to an Earthly Grade Celestial Method.
Naturally, he knew this Celestial Method was much better than a single Celestial Method. In fact, it was much better than a single Celestial Method.
"Although I'm the last one among the three of us to join the sect, it has been some time since I joined the sect. This is the first time I've seen the sect leader lose his composure. He doesn't look like a sect leader at all! "
Yang Chong shook his head with a bitter smile on his face.
"Well, it's understandable."
Situ Ming said with a smile, "After witnessing and confirming Master Duan's cauldron-heating speed, the sect leader must have blind faith in Master Duan. Since he's sure to win, why didn't he make the bet bigger?"
"Just as you said, if the sect has a King Grade Celestial Weapon, it's possible to win a Celestial Method or Divine Ability that has both offense, speed, and defense.
Once the sect obtains a Celestial Method or Divine Ability that has both offense, speed, and defense, the sect leader will become the first person in the history of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect to obtain a Celestial Method or Divine Ability that has both offense, speed, and defense. His name will go down in the history of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect! "
"This is very tempting to the sect leader."
Situ Ming's words clearly explained the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect's loss of composure.
"Master Duan!"
After Situ Ming finished speaking, he looked at Duan Lingtian and said solemnly, "The Alchemy Conference will be held in two years … During this time, I don't recommend you to comprehend the sect's movement Duke Grade Celestial Method and offensive Divine Ability.
After all, even if you comprehend the movement Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Ability in two years, you won't be able to comprehend much of it.
"Two years later, you'll be able to obtain a Duke Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability that's both offensive and defensive. In fact, as long as you're lucky, you might even be able to obtain a Duke Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability that's both offensive and defensive.
For this reason, you can focus on alchemy for the next two years. You can use the rest of the time to cultivate. "
Situ Ming earnestly advised Duan Lingtian.
"That's how it should be."
Yu Zhong Jing nodded in agreement with Situ Ming's words.
"That's how it should be."
Yang Chong nodded at Duan Lingtian as well. "Instead of wasting time on meaningless things, why don't you focus on studying alchemy? If you feel bored, you can calm down and cultivate. Once you've calmed down, you can continue studying alchemy.
"For the next two years, Master Duan, if you have any questions about the Dao of Alchemy, you can ask me … I'll definitely tell you everything I know!"
Situ Ming was the first to express his opinion.
"Same here."
Yang Chong chimed in as well.
Although Yu Zhong Jing did not say anything, the way he looked at Duan Ling Tian was enough to explain everything.
"Thank you, Alchemists."
Duan Lingtian quickly expressed his gratitude.
"Master Duan, you don't have to thank me. After all, if you're able to obtain a Duke Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability that has both offense and defense, as Revered Elders of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, we'll be able to bask in the glory as well."
Yang Chong said with a smile.
"Perhaps, Master Duan will be able to obtain a Duke Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability that has both offense and defense."
Situ Ming said with a smile. He was very optimistic.
Yu Zhong Jing's lips curled up into a smile as well.
Duan Ling Tian's group of four waited for approximately half an hour before Bai Ping returned. Moreover, his face was filled with smiles.
"Sect Leader, did the Old Ancestor agree?"
Seeing Bai Ping's happy face, Situ Ming already had an idea in his heart, but he still asked with a smile.
"He agreed."
Bai Ping nodded with a smile. Then, he looked at Duan Lingtian and said, "Master Duan, the Old Ancestor said he'll accompany you to the Alchemy Conference in two years. Firstly, he wants to see your skills in alchemy. Secondly, he wants to protect you.
After all, you've won a valuable Duke Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability. If you're not accompanied by a powerhouse, it's inevitable that some people will try to harm you. "
Bai Ping said.
"In that case, please thank the Old Ancestor on my behalf, sect leader."
Duan Lingtian hastily said.
Naturally, he knew the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect did not only want to protect him but also wanted to see his alchemy skills. He was worried the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect would lose the King Grade Celestial Weapon along the way.
After all, the King Grade Celestial Weapon was the only King Grade Celestial Weapon in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect and the Wasteland. It was extremely important to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
If the Tai Yi Celestial Sect lost the King Grade Celestial Weapon, they would not be as powerful as before.
After a few moments, Duan Ling Tian and the other three left after bidding farewell to Bai Ping.
After bidding farewell to Situ Ming and the others, Duan Lingtian and the others returned to his residence.
"Huan 'er."
When Duan Lingtian discovered Huan 'er was not cultivating, he told her everything that had happened.
"So, Brother Ling Tian, you're going to participate in the Alchemy Conference in two years?"
Huan 'er's eyes lit up. She looked at Duan Lingtian eagerly and asked, "The Alchemy Conference will be attended by Celestial Alchemists from the Wasteland and the other realms … It must be very lively, right?"
"Why? Do you want to join in the fun as well? "
Duan Lingtian could see through Huan 'er's thoughts. He shook his head and smiled.
"Can I?"
Huan 'er asked.
If Ling Tian was going to the Alchemy Conference alone, she was not worried Ling Tian would not bring her along.
However, she heard Ling Tian's words.
Not only would the three prominent Celestial Alchemists from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect attend the Alchemy Conference in two years, but even the only Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, would attend as well.
"Huan 'er, if you want to go, you can come with me."
Duan Ling Tian said affectionately as he patted Huan 'er's head affectionately.
Previously, when Duan Lingtian heard Du Fei's Voice Transmission in the Little World left behind by the Celestial King, he could vaguely sense something was amiss.
Although Huan 'er was a rare Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox in the Phantom Fox Clan, she was bound to become a thorn in the side of the Phantom Fox Clan.
Otherwise, Du Fei would not have warned him not to let Huan 'er interact with the Phantom Fox Clan.
Moreover, Du Fei had also warned him.
If anyone from the Phantom Fox Clan found out about Huan 'er's identity as a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox, as long as they're not from the Du Clan, they must kill them!
Based on the relationship between Du Fei and Huan 'er, it was not difficult for Duan Lingtian to figure it out.
The Du Clan was one of the most influential forces in the Phantom Fox Clan. It seemed like the other clans in the Phantom Fox Clan were unwilling to let the Du Clan become a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox.
Naturally, this was only Duan Lingtian's speculation.
Nevertheless, he could vaguely feel the helplessness Huan 'er's mother felt when she left her behind.
After all, which mother would abandon their children?
For this reason, after leaving the Little World, Duan Lingtian had become even more protective of Huan 'er.
"Huan 'er wants to go."
