At this moment, he was completely unaware that he could be betrayed by the Blood Skull Gang's assassin at any time.
According to his plan, if Duan Ling Tian did not show up, the Blood Skull Gang's assassin would kill Liu Guang Lin before Duan Ling Tian's follower woke up.
Once Duan Lingtian showed up, the assassin would naturally place all his attention on Duan Lingtian.
At that time, the assassin would not care if Liu Guang Lin woke up or if Liu Guang Lin would betray him after he woke up.
All the assassin cared about was killing Duan Lingtian and fulfilling the orders given to him by the organization.
Duan Lingtian did not expect to receive such a letter.
After half a year, he had actually received a letter similar to the one he had received half a year ago.
The content of the letter was similar to the one he had received before.
However, the person in the letter was not Huan 'er but Liu Guang Lin's follower.
Moreover, he had personally gone to Liu Guang Lin's location to confirm that Liu Guang Lin had indeed been abducted.
"Swaggering in and abducting one of your men … There's no way that the person who did this is a member of the Blood Skull!"
After all, if an assassin from the Blood Skull Gang were to enter the sect, he would definitely alert the sect's Formation. "
This was the reply Duan Lingtian had sent to Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, to inform him that Liu Guang Lin had been abducted.
"Based on your words, it's very likely that the assassin is a mole. Is it someone from the Simplicity Celestial Sect? "
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Yes."
Sun Liang Peng's reply was firm.
"The letter also states that I should travel alone. If you or a Celestial King from the sect comes with me, I'm afraid the mole will still inform the assassin."
Duan Lingtian replied.
"Duan Lingtian, I've already made plans for this. Half a year ago, when you encountered that incident, I pretended to send my second brother out to handle some matters," Sun Liang Peng replied confidently.
Sun Liang Peng's voice was filled with confidence as he replied, "Now, he's waiting for my orders. This time, he'll go with you to meet the Blood Skull's assassin."
"Sect leader, are you sure your second brother will be able to protect me?"
Duan Lingtian did not beat around the bush.
Although he was certain he would leave the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate to rescue Liu Guang Lin, he had to be fully prepared before he left.
After all, he did not know how strong the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang was sent.
Although he did not know how strong the assassin from the Heaven Realm was, he was certain the assassin was stronger than him.. at most, the assassins from the Heaven Celestial Sect's estate.........
In the eyes of the Blood Skull Gang, Duan Lingtian was no longer a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial but a Ten Directions Celestial King who had comprehended two profundities from the law of earth.
Moreover, his cultivation base as a Ten Directions Celestial King would decline rapidly if he expended even a little bit of his energy.
"Don't worry."
Sun Liang Peng remained confident even after hearing Duan Lingtian's words. "Although my second brother's cultivation base is only a Five Elements Celestial King, his comprehension of the law of wind is extremely powerful.
None of the Five Elements Celestial Kings in the Profound Nether Mansion are a match for him.
His strength is comparable to a Five Elements Celestial King from the Blood Skull Gang. In fact, his strength is comparable to a Six Combos Celestial King from the Blood Skull Gang. “
Duan Lingtian nodded.
Although your cultivation base is comparable to a Ten Directions Celestial King, your comprehension of the profundities from the law isn't strong. It's impossible for the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang to be too strong.
In my opinion, they'll send a Five Elements Celestial King at most. It's more likely that they'll send a Four Phenomenons Celestial King. "
Based on Sun Liang Peng's words, it was clear he was confident in his guess.
"My second brother should be able to suppress a Five Elements Celestial King. It won't be difficult for him to kill the assassin after some time.
Even if the assassin doesn't want to fight and wants to flee, with my second brother's comprehension of the law of wind, it won't be difficult for him to catch up to the assassin. Even if he can't kill the assassin, he can still send a message to me.
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"Alright."
Sun Liang Peng's words put Duan Lingtian at ease.
"Sect leader, when can I depart?"
Duan Lingtian asked Sun Liang Peng. He was in a hurry to rescue Liu Guang Lin.
"You can depart now. My second brother is hiding near the sect's estate. Moreover, his true form as a Celestial Beast is best at concealing itself. Even a Six Combos Celestial King or Seven Stars Celestial King won't be able to detect his presence, let alone a Five Elements Celestial King. "
Sun Liang Peng replied.
"Where is that person asking you to go? To the east? "
Sun Liang Peng asked.
"The west."
Duan Lingtian replied.
"Alright, you can depart now. Keep in touch. I'll ask my second brother to follow you closely so he can protect you in time. "
As soon as Sun Liang Peng finished speaking, Duan Lingtian made his way to the west. This time, he was even further away from the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate.
Swoosh!
After leaving the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate, Duan Lingtian did not use his Celestial Origin Energy to travel. Instead, he used a Celestial Boat to carry him.
The weakest Celestial Boat was a Duke Grade Celestial Weapon. Moreover, it was very complicated to refine. For this reason, Duan Lingtian had only heard of Duke Grade Celestial Boats before he joined the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
The Duke Grade Celestial Boats were divided into three grades. The better the grade, the faster the boat.
The fastest Celestial Boat was comparable to a Nine Palaces Celestial Duke who traveled with only his Celestial Origin Energy.
The slowest Celestial Boat was comparable to a Three Talents Celestial Duke who traveled with only his Celestial Origin Energy.
This was the difference between a high-grade Duke Grade Celestial Boat and a low-grade Duke Grade Celestial Boat.
Mid-grade Duke Grade Celestial Boats were comparable to a Six Combinations Celestial Duke who traveled with only his Celestial Origin Energy.
Currently, Duan Lingtian was riding on a low-grade Celestial Boat. He had spent some Celestial Crystals to purchase it from an elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
The elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect was a Duke Grade Celestial Weapon Craftsman who was capable of forging Duke Grade Celestial Boats. He was also the only Duke Grade Celestial Weapon Craftsman in the Simplicity Celestial Sect who was capable of forging Duke Grade Celestial Boats.
However, the Duke Grade Celestial Boats he was capable of forging were mostly low-grade Duke Grade Celestial Boats.
Up until now, he had only forged two mid-grade Duke Grade Celestial Boats. As for high-grade Duke Grade Celestial Boats, he had yet to forge one.
"I've arrived."
After traveling for a day and a night on the Celestial Boat, Duan Lingtian finally arrived at the place where the person who had left the message had agreed to meet him.
The place where they had agreed to meet was a barren plain. There was only a lone tree standing on the plain.
The tree had no leaves, only its branches. Most of the branches were withered, and there were a few cracks on the main branch. It was clear the tree had lost its vitality.
"A Soul Pearl!"
Duan Lingtian discovered a Soul Pearl on one of the branches of the tree. He was not surprised by this since this was what the person who had left the message had agreed to meet.
After obtaining the Soul Pearl, he tried to contact the person who had written the message through the soul imprint on the Soul Pearl.
However, as soon as Duan Lingtian's Divine Consciousness made contact with the soul imprint on the Soul Pearl …
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
…
Along with the sound of leaves flapping, the branches on the big tree beside Duan Ling Tian began to shake one by one.
At the same time, white dots of light appeared at every corner of the tree. They looked like stars in the sky.
These white dots of light each gave off a mysterious power, which then converged together and blossomed into a dazzling white light.
As soon as the white light appeared, it enveloped the entire tree, including Duan Lingtian.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian felt his vision darken. His heart skipped a beat. "Is this … a Teleportation Formation?!"
"Oh, no!"
In the void not far away, a huge green bird that resembled a goshawk appeared. It was as if it had been hiding in the void earlier.
After the goshawk appeared, its mountain-like body transformed into a young man dressed in a long green robe in the blink of an eye.
He looked at the tree that had returned to its original state after the white light dissipated. His expression was unsightly. "The assassin from the Blood Skull Gang is actually a Formation Master?
This Teleportation Formation was set up so stealthily that even I didn't notice it before it was set up.
"I wonder where Duan Ling Tian has been transported to."
The green-clad young man was the second brother of Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. He was a Five Elements Celestial King in human form.
Based on Sun Liang Peng's words, among the Five Elements Celestial Kings in the Profound Nether Mansion, there was no one who was a match for Sun Liang Peng.
Based on this, it was clear the green-clad young man was quite strong.
However, even then, Duan Ling Tian had still disappeared right under his nose!
"As expected, it's a one-time Teleportation Formation."
Although the green-clad young man knew Duan Lingtian had triggered a one-time Teleportation Formation, he still flew toward the tree to inspect it. After a while, he was certain it was a one-time Teleportation Formation that had sent Duan Lingtian away.
"Big brother."
The green-clad young man took a deep breath before he sent a message to his big brother, Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
Sun Liang Peng, who was in the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate, had an unsightly expression on his face when he received the green-clad young man's message.
"I can't believe that the Blood Skull's assassin is a spell formation grandmaster!"
Even if one had sufficient materials, it was not easy to set up a one-time Teleportation Formation on a withered tree.
Ordinary Formation Masters were not capable of such a feat.
