"As it turns out, he's an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke. No wonder …"
"The Tai Yi Celestial Sect is a top sect in the Wasteland. However, it's said that the strongest person in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect is the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. He's only an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke. Why is he not afraid of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect? "
"That's right. He didn't show any respect to the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect at all!"
"Isn't he afraid of bringing disaster to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect?"
…
After learning about the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, many people began to discuss among themselves. They felt the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect would bring disaster to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
At this moment, someone in the know refuted the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
"It's true that the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect didn't show any respect to the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, but why should he? After all, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect is just a junior. "
"That's right! Although the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect is stronger than the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, they're both top sects in the Six Southeastern Regions so they're on equal footing. Who knows if the Tai Yi Celestial Sect still has a Ten Directions Celestial Duke in the Six Southeastern Regions? "
"That's right. If the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect makes a move against the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, what happened 100,000 years ago might happen again."
"The Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect has already shown the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect enough respect. If it weren't for the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, do you think the three people beside the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect would be able to survive?"
"Indeed. If they hadn't joined the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect and were still sectless cultivators, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect wouldn't have spared their lives! "
…
After Duan Lingtian and the others left, the place where they had a conflict with Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, became even more lively.
Duan Lingtian and out of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
With He Shan leading the way, Duan Lingtian and the others soon arrived at the Tai Yi Celestial Sect's residence in Alchemy City in the Barren Land.
"Master Duan, I didn't go overboard today. I've given the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect enough face so there's no need to worry about the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect. However, Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, won't let this matter rest."
Before parting ways, He Shan looked at Duan Lingtian and said solemnly, "Therefore, if there's nothing important, it's best if you don't leave this mansion without permission. Even if you want to leave, remember to let me know. I'll go with you."
"Not bad!"
Situ Ming nodded in agreement. Then, he looked at Duan Ling Tian and said solemnly, "Master Duan, in the next month, if you want to leave, remember to inform the Old Ancestor. Don't leave without permission."
"As the Young Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, Bai Yu Xuan's strength is not to be underestimated. Moreover, his strength isn't something you and Miss Huan 'er can contend with."
Situ Ming reminded Duan Lingtian.
Although Yang Chong and Yu Zhong Jing did not say anything, they nodded in agreement.
"Understood."
Duan Lingtian nodded. Even if He Shan and Situ Ming did not warn him, he would not have left without permission.
Although he had acted recklessly in front of Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, that was only because He Shan was there. Therefore, he was not worried Bai Yu Xuan would do anything to him.
If he left the mansion on his own accord and left He Shan's protection, it would be easy for Bai Yu Xuan to take revenge on him.
'I'm still too weak …' Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
After bidding farewell to He Shan and the others, Duan Ling Tian sighed inwardly as he parted ways with them.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er entered a large courtyard in the mansion. This was the place they had chosen to stay. It was not far from where He Shan and the others were staying. If anything happened, they would be able to look out for each other.
There were three rooms in the courtyard. The courtyard was spacious, and it was filled with flowers and plants. There were even a few small trees growing in the courtyard. It was a refreshing and comfortable place.
"Brother Ling Tian, is the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect very powerful? Why do I feel like even that old man is afraid of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect? "
Huan 'er asked curiously after they entered the courtyard, "Duan Lingtian, the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect is very powerful.
In Huan 'er's opinion, the old man who brought them to Alchemy City was someone whom even the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect feared. He was also the strongest person in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
Since such a powerhouse was afraid of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, Huan 'er could not help but feel curious about the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
Naturally, she was only curious about the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
Duan Lingtian had learned a lot about the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect from He Shan, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, and the others.
However, since Huan 'er was meditating on her Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities at that time, she did not hear their conversation.
For this reason, she did not know much about the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
"Huan 'er, the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect is the strongest sect in the Six Southeastern Regions …"
Duan Ling Tian explained the strength of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect and its current status in the Six Southeastern Regions to Huan 'er in detail. He was worried that she would not be able to comprehend his words.
"The Profound Heaven Celestial Sect has three Ten Directions Celestial Dukes?"
Although Huan 'er had always been calm, she was still shocked when she learned the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect had three Ten Directions Celestial Dukes.
"Brother Ling Tian … If I'm not mistaken, the old man who brought us here, the strongest person in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, is only an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke, right?"
Huan 'er asked.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded. "The old man is indeed an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke."
"There's a Nine Palaces Celestial Duke between an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke and a Ten Directions Celestial Duke. In other words, the old man's strength is two levels lower than the three Ten Directions Celestial Dukes in the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect!"
Huan 'er muttered to herself, "The Profound Heaven Celestial Sect definitely has Nine Palaces Celestial Dukes below Ten Directions Celestial Dukes. Based on this, there's no doubt the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect is much stronger than the Tai Yi Celestial Sect."
"Brother Ling Tian," Huan 'er suddenly said.
"Since the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect is so much stronger than the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, why did the old man treat the Young Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect in such a manner?
Isn't he worried the Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, the Young Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, would attack the Tai Yi Celestial Sect in a fit of rage?
If the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect attacks the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, the Tai Yi Celestial Sect won't be a match for them, right? "
Huan 'er asked.
"Based on the strength of the two sects, if the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect attacks the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, the Tai Yi Celestial Sect won't be able to fight back at all. Even if the other two sects in the Wasteland were to attack, they wouldn't be able to stop the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect."
Duan Lingtian said.
"If that's the case, why did the old man treat the Young Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect in such a manner? Isn't he afraid the Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect would avenge his son?"
Huan 'er asked again.
"The Old Ancestor represents the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. As one of the top sects in the Six Southeastern Regions, the Tai Yi Celestial Sect has its own dignity. If the Old Ancestor is afraid of the Young Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, it won't take long for the entire Alchemy City to spread rumors about the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
"Sometimes, there are some things that we can't back down on."
Duan Lingtian said.
"Moreover, the Old Ancestor didn't go overboard. If the Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect stands up for his son, his reputation will be tarnished.
Moreover, even if the Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect wants to attack the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, the high-ranking officials of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect and the three Ten Directions Celestial Dukes of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect might not agree to it. "
Duan Lingtian said.
"Why?
With the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect's strength, it shouldn't be difficult for them to annihilate the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, right? "
"That's right."
Duan Lingtian nodded. Then, his eyes glinted as he said, "Based on the strength of the two sects, who knows if the Tai Yi Celestial Sect doesn't have a Ten Directions Celestial Duke?
I heard from the Old Ancestor that about 100,000 years ago, there was a powerful sect in the General Region. It was the strongest sect in the Six Southeastern Regions at that time. It had five Ten Directions Celestial Dukes. It was even stronger than the current Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
At that time, the Young Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect accidentally killed a descendant of a Ten Directions Celestial Duke from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. The Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect said he was willing to use his son's life to appease the other sect.
After all, the strongest person in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect at that time was an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke.
For the sake of the sect, the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect had no choice but to sacrifice his son's life.
However, even after the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect sacrificed his son's life, the other sect still refused to let the matter rest. The Ten Directions Celestial Duke who had lost his descendant personally killed all the powerhouses in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect who were Celestial Dukes and stronger. Then, he planned to annihilate the Tai Yi Celestial Sect!
At this critical moment, two Ten Directions Celestial Dukes appeared. Their strength was close to that of a One Basic Celestial King, and one of them easily killed the Ten Directions Celestial Duke from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
After that, the two Ten Directions Celestial Dukes went to the other sect and killed the remaining four Ten Directions Celestial Dukes.
Soon after, the other sect was annihilated by the two Ten Directions Celestial Dukes.
