In the Spirit Overarching Heaven.
In the Profound Nether Mansion's territory in the Southern Heaven Territory.
In the east of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, there was a vast grassland that spanned from 80,000 to 130,000 miles.
In the east of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, there was a blue lake with a diameter of more than 1,000 meters on a grassland that was about 100,000 miles away from the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
This lake was located in the middle of the grassland. It was like a mirror embedded in the grassland, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds in the sky, as well as the scorching sun.
Whoosh!
As if a gust of wind had blown past, a purple figure appeared in the air above the lake that was originally empty.
"Hm?"
The purple figure was none other than Duan Lingtian who had rushed here from the Simplicity Celestial Sect. He looked to his left and right, but he did not see anyone around him.
The reason Duan Ling Tian was here was because of the letter he had received.
Since the person who wrote the letter had invited him here, it was only a matter of time before he showed up.
For this reason, Duan Lingtian was not in a hurry. He sat cross-legged in the air and continued to comprehend the law of fire's Pillaging Profundity with the help of the Chaos Divine Flame.
With the help of the Chaos Divine Flame, his comprehension of the law of fire's Pillaging Profundity improved rapidly.
'At this rate, I'm sure I'll be able to comprehend the Pillaging Profundity within half a year!'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
Naturally, Duan Lingtian was referring to comprehending the Pillaging Profundity to the rudimentary stage. A King Grade Celestial Method that contained the Pillaging Profundity could only help him comprehend the Pillaging Profundity to the rudimentary stage.
Although Duan Ling Tian was comprehending the law of fire, his Divine Consciousness was constantly spreading out. As long as someone was near him, he would be able to detect it immediately and react in time unless the person's cultivation base was much higher than his.
While Duan Lingtian was comprehending the law of fire above the lake, two people were busy in the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
They were none other than Zheng Hong Yi, the third direct disciple of the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, and Wang Hong, the granddaughter of the Grand Elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
At this moment, the two of them were making their way around the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate to make sure none of the Celestial Kings had left the sect.
The reason why the two of them were doing this was because they wanted to cooperate with the Blood Skull assassin.
The assassin sent by the Blood Skull Gang was only a One Basic Celestial King. Although he was strong, there were many people in the Simplicity Celestial Sect who were stronger than him.
As a member of the Blood Skull Gang, it was only natural for him to be cautious. Therefore, when he learned that Duan Lingtian had left, he sent a message to Zheng Hong Yi to confirm if anyone from the Simplicity Celestial Sect had left.
Three days later, Zheng Hongyi and Wang Hong met.
"The people I went to look for are all in the sect's encampment. No one has left."
Wang Hong said to Zheng Hongyi.
"Same here."
Zheng Hongyi nodded. At the same time, he took out an Immortal Message Talisman. Through the soul imprint in a Soul Pearl, he sent the message over.
"Senior, all the Celestial Kings and above who haven't left the sect's estate are all in the sect's estate. None of them have left. It seems like Duan Lingtian really didn't tell anyone about your invitation."
These were the exact words Zheng Hong Yi sent to the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang. Then, he continued to flatter the assassin, "Senior, you're really amazing. Not only did you lure Duan Lingtian out of the sect's estate, but you even made sure he didn't dare to tell anyone about your invitation."
"Alright."
Unfortunately, Zheng Hong Yi's flattery was destined to be in vain. After receiving Zheng Hong Yi's message, the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang only responded with a faint grunt and then ignored Zheng Hong Yi.
"It's time to make a move."
The black-clad middle-aged man who was sitting cross-legged in the air suddenly rose to his feet.
In the next moment, his eyes were filled with sharpness as he stared at the grassland. At the same time, his body emitted waves of frightening killing intent.
He murmured to himself, "It seems like the information from the organization is correct. That woman is indeed very important to him.
"However, he really didn't tell anyone that he came here … Could it be that he couldn't see that the letter could be a great threat to him?"
Or perhaps, he thinks his life won't be in danger if he follows my instructions? "
"What a naive brat!"
After muttering for a while, the black-clothed middle-aged man smiled coldly. Then, his entire body seemed to have turned into a bolt of lightning, and directly swept into the grassland.
The grassland was vast, and the sky was clear.
A mirror-like lake could be seen in the middle of the grassland. It was like a pearl that had fallen from the sky, giving the grassland a unique sense of beauty.
A purple-clad young man could be seen sitting cross-legged in the air above the lake. He seemed to be meditating, but one could vaguely see waves of heat pulsing around his body.
If it was night instead of day, it would not be difficult to see the heat waves pulsating around his body, emitting a faint fiery red glow.
It was the Fire Elemental Profundity, the Fire Elemental Profundity.
The purple-clad young man was none other than Duan Lingtian.
It had been a few days since Duan Lingtian arrived. He had been waiting for the person who had sent him the letter, but the person had yet to show up.
However, since Duan Lingtian was comprehending the law of fire's Pillaging Profundity, time did not seem to pass too slowly.
"He's here!"
All of a sudden, Duan Ling Tian who was sitting cross-legged in the air suddenly opened his eyes. He immediately stood up and looked at the sky in front of him warily.
As soon as he looked in the direction of the sound …
Swoosh!
At this moment, a black figure appeared like a ghost in the sky. It was a middle-aged man dressed in a long black robe.
The middle-aged man was skinny and looked like a bag of bones. However, the murderous aura he exuded was enough to make one's heart palpitate.
"Hm?"
As soon as the middle-aged man appeared, Duan Lingtian looked at the blood-red skull embroidered on the chest of the middle-aged man's black robe.
The bloody skull was embroidered vividly, as if it was a real skull that was dyed with blood. It was hideous and terrifying.
"The Blood Skull Gang?"
Duan Lingtian raised an eyebrow when he saw the middle-aged man's skinny face.
Before he came to the Simplicity Celestial Sect, he did not know about the Blood Skull Gang, let alone recognize the Blood Skull Gang's symbol.
However, after staying in the inner court of the Simplicity Celestial Sect for a period of time, he learned a lot about the Southern Heaven Territory.
He learned about the three strongest assassin organizations in the Southern Heaven Territory. One of the three strongest assassin organizations was the Blood Skull Gang.
The assassins of the Blood Skull Gang wore the uniform of the Blood Skull Gang with the Blood Skull Gang's symbol on their chests.
Apart from that, one could also tell the assassin's rank in the Blood Skull Gang by looking at the symbols on their chests.
"You're quite knowledgeable to recognize that I'm an assassin from the Blood Skull Gang."
The middle-aged man stared at Duan Lingtian coldly as he said, "Duan Lingtian, you're an assassin."
Waves of shock surged in his heart when he saw the purple-clad young man. It seemed as though the purple-clad young man had already noticed his presence.
This was inconceivable to him.
After all, he was a One Basic Celestial King while the purple-clad young man was only a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial.
"Where's Huan 'er?"
Duan Lingtian asked indifferently, ignoring the middle-aged man's cold gaze.
"Huan 'er?"
The middle-aged man was taken aback. Then, he sneered and said, "There's no Huan 'er. She's just a bait to lure you away from the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
It's just that I didn't expect you to come here on your own … It seems like that person is very important to you. "
Based on her name, she must be a woman, right?
Today, a genius like you will die because of a woman! "
The middle-aged man's sneer deepened when he finished speaking.
"So, you don't know where Huan 'er is?"
Duan Lingtian raised an eyebrow as he sighed in relief inwardly.
"Didn't I tell you? It's just a bait. "
The middle-aged man sneered.
"Although it's just a bait, the Blood Skull Gang's intelligence network is pretty good. To think you're aware of Huan 'er's existence and know how to lure me out."
Duan Lingtian said indifferently.
"Can you tell me who hired the Blood Skull Gang to kill me? Based on what I know, it's not easy to hire an assassin from the Blood Skull Gang. Not everyone is qualified to do so. "
Duan Lingtian asked as he looked at the middle-aged man.
"You seem to know a lot …"
The middle-aged man looked at Duan Ling Tian as though he was looking at a dead man. "Originally, since you're about to die, there's no harm in letting you know the reason before you die … Unfortunately, our Blood Skull has our own rules."
You can only die with your curiosity and regret! "
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, the air around him began to tremble as a majestic aura surged out of him.
At the same time, a terrifying killing intent surged out of the middle-aged man's body.
In the next moment …
Swoosh!
In just a blink of an eye, the middle-aged man appeared in front of Duan Lingtian like a ghost. He raised his hand and threw a punch at Duan Lingtian. Blue Celestial Origin Energy swirled around his fist. It was clear this was the Celestial Origin Energy from the law of water's Fundamental Profundity, the Water Elemental Profundity.
Bang!
His fist shot out like a roaring water dragon toward Duan Lingtian's head. It was clear the middle-aged man intended to kill Duan Lingtian with a single punch.
However, the middle-aged man had a nonchalant expression on his face as though he was certain Duan Lingtian would be killed by his punch.
However, in the next moment, his gaze froze, and his expression changed drastically.
Crack!
Just as the middle-aged man's gaze froze and his expression changed drastically, a crisp sound rang out. It wasn't loud, but it scared the middle-aged man so much that he felt like his insides were about to split apart!
