The gloomy valley was in ruins. Everything inside was in a state of chaos. The raging wind and fire in the air made it seem as if doomsday had arrived.
"I've locked onto him!"
Under the cover of the soaring flames, Duan Ling Tian's Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword shot out a sword ray and broke through the threads and wind blades contained in the tornado. He charged toward the Blood Skull Assassin who was in the middle of the tornado. At the same time, he locked his gaze on the Blood Skull Assassin's forehead.
"Not bad. I didn't expect you to be able to come here …"
The assassin was surprised to see Duan Lingtian's purple robe, which had been shredded by the wind blades, was still able to get close to him despite the wounds on his body.
"However, it's time to end this now."
A cold smile appeared on the assassin's face. Then, he stretched out his hands, and the threads in his hands suddenly shot toward Duan Lingtian.
At this moment, this thread that whistled towards Duan Ling Tian seemed to have transformed into a general that commanded a vast army, and as soon as it flashed out, the wind blades that covered the sky arrived along with its shadow and flashed towards Duan Ling Tian at the same time.
When the assassin made his move, his eyes were cold and his face was expressionless.
In his eyes, Duan Lingtian was already a dead man.
"Brat, now's the time!"
Just as the assassin saw Duan Lingtian breaking through the tornado and attacking Duan Lingtian, the Profound Divine Metal's voice rang in Duan Lingtian's ears.
"Die!"
Upon hearing the Profound Divine Metal's words, Duan Lingtian's eyes turned even colder. At the same time, the sword in his hand suddenly shone with a dazzling seven-colored light.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
At this moment, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, which had looked ordinary, shone with the utmost brilliance.
Seven sword rays of different colors shot out of the seven orifices on the sword and swirled around the sword. At the same time, they emitted different auras.
Every sword light of a different color exuded a completely different aura.
Seven different colored sword lights circled around the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword. After a while, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword seemed to have been injected with chicken blood. The sword lights suddenly surged and became sharper.
A terrifying aura began to spread out.
"This …"
If the Blood Skull Gang assassin still couldn't see the extraordinariness of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, he would have lived his life in vain.
However, before he could think of anything else, he saw a golden thread appear in the middle of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword.
If one took a closer look, it was not a golden thread, but a golden energy. It was like a golden stream of water, flowing on the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword.
Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!
…
The strings in the Blood Skull assassin's hands whizzed towards Duan Lingtian, as if they were going to cut Duan Lingtian into a thousand pieces.
In the face of this, Duan Lingtian's sword-light flickered in his hand as he fearlessly charged forward.
Whoosh!!
Just one sword strike seemed to be able to cut through the void. Wherever it passed, the golden threads were shaken away, and the wind blades were all swept away.
However, some of the wind blades still managed to land on Duan Lingtian's body. Even with the Chaos Divine Earth's energy and the purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon that had been nurtured by a Celestial Lord, he was still unable to withstand the wind blades.
In the blink of an eye, Duan Lingtian's purple clothes became even more tattered, and the number of wounds on his body increased. He looked like he was riddled with holes.
All this happened in the blink of an eye.
"Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon!"
When the Blood Skull Gang assassin saw the sword in Duan Lingtian's hand and let out a cry of shock, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword in Duan Lingtian's hand, which had been infused with the Profound Divine Metal's energy, was already close to the assassin's forehead.
The assassin from the Blood Skull Gang did not even have time to react since Duan Lingtian's attack was too fast.
When the Profound Divine Metal's energy surged into the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, Duan Lingtian felt as though the sword was flying out of his hand.
Spurt!
A soft sound rang in the air. The Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword in Duan Lingtian's hand pierced the assassin's forehead as though it was made of tofu. The white blade entered, and the red blade exited.
The Profound Divine Metal's power surged into the Blood Skull assassin's sea of psychic power, crushing his soul with ease.
The assassin from the Blood Skull Gang's eyes were wide open as he fell to the ground.
Before he died, he had clearly mobilized the remaining energy in his body and infused it into the King Grade Celestial Weapon that had been nurtured by a Celestial Lord. However, it was still easily pierced through by Duan Lingtian's sword.
It was as though the Seven-colored Sword Qi did not penetrate the defense of a King Grade Celestial Weapon but a broken wall.
Before he died, the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang only had one thought in his mind.
'How did Duan Lingtian cast the law of fire and the law of metal's Piercing Profundity at the same time?!'
The Profound Divine Metal that had fused with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword was very similar to the law of metal's Piercing Profundity.
The assassin from the Blood Skull Gang had comprehended the law of wind. Apart from the law of wind and the law of metal, the two profundities had similar characteristics.
It was the Severing Profundity!
The law of metal had the Severing Profundity, and the law of wind had the Severing Profundity as well.
Back then, in order to comprehend the Cutting Profound of the Law of Wind, the Blood Skull Gang had not only used the Floating Image Pearls of experts who had comprehended the Cutting Profound of the Law of Wind, but they had also used the Floating Image Pearls of experts who had comprehended the Cutting Profound of the Law of Metal.
For this reason, he was familiar with the Piercing Profundity since he had seen powerhouses who had comprehended the law of metal's Severing Profundity cast the Piercing Profundity.
Although the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang was surprised that Duan Lingtian had comprehended the law of metal's Piercing Profundity, he did not think it was impossible.
However, Duan Lingtian had cast the law of wind and the law of metal's Piercing Profundity at the same time. This completely overturned the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang's understanding of the law of metal's Piercing Profundity.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
…
After the death of the Blood Skull Gang's assassin, the vast tornado dispersed in the blink of an eye, turning into a gust of wind that blew in every corner of the canyon, displaying its remaining power.
Boom!
Boom!
Rumble!!
…
The valley trembled as though an earthquake had occurred.
"Huff! Huff!"
"Huff! Huff! Huff!"
…
After the tornado's energy dissipated, Duan Lingtian panted heavily. He felt completely drained.
When he put away the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, he felt as though his entire body was about to fall apart. The numbing pain he felt due to his concentration was transmitted to his mind from his nerves, causing him to faint.
After his body swayed for a while, Duan Lingtian took out a Duke Grade Healing Pill from his Spatial Ring and swallowed it. Only then did the pain in his body subside.
"Lad, the Chaos Divine Flame and the Profound Divine Metal have fallen into a deep slumber after helping you this time … I'll also need to rest for a while to recover."
Just as Duan Lingtian was about to collect the loot left behind by the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang, the Chaos Divine Earth's childish voice rang in his ears.
In the past, the Chaos Divine Earth's voice had always been full of energy. However, this time, it seemed to be very weak. Moreover, the more it spoke, the softer its voice became.
"Cultivate well and improve your strength as soon as possible. Although the Chaos Divine Flame has fallen into a deep slumber, you can still use it to refine Celestial Pills.
You can try to understand and visualize the Chaos Divine Flame when you use it. That way, it'll be easier for you to comprehend the profundities from the law of fire than if you were to comprehend them on your own.
Of course, although the effect is not bad, it's not as good as the Chaos Divine Flame's guidance.
However, if you want to receive guidance from the Chaos Divine Flame again, I'm afraid you'll have to wait until it wakes up … "
The Chaos Divine Earth's voice became softer and softer before it stopped abruptly.
'It seems like I'll have to rely on myself for the time being.'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
"Duan Lingtian!"
Just as Duan Lingtian was about to collect the loot left behind by the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang, an anxious voice rang from outside the valley.
Based on the voice, it was clear the voice was still some distance away.
"Sect leader?"
By the time Duan Lingtian regained his senses and recognized the owner of the voice, a figure had already appeared in the valley like a ghost.
The figure belonged to a middle-aged man with a medium build who was dressed in a shabby robe.
It was none other than Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
"Duan Lingtian, you're seriously injured …" Sun Liang Peng muttered to himself.
His expression changed slightly when he saw Duan Lingtian's injuries. Then, he asked instinctively, "Where's the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang?"
"Over there."
Duan Lingtian replied in a low voice as he looked at the corpse of the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang who had been smashed into a pulp on the ground.
At the same time, he struggled to descend to the ground and made his way to the corpse of the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang.
Sun Liang Peng was stunned when he saw the corpse of the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang. "This … This is the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang?
He … He was killed by Duan Lingtian? "
By the time Sun Liang Peng regained his senses, Duan Lingtian had already taken the assassin's Spatial Ring and the defensive Celestial Weapon from the assassin.
"This is my first time seeing a King Grade Celestial Weapon like this … Although this King Grade Celestial Weapon isn't popular, it's extremely powerful in the hands of someone who has comprehended the law of metal and the law of wind."
Duan Lingtian muttered to himself as he looked at the silk thread in the assassin's hand.
Earlier, when the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang made his move, the silk thread seemed to be able to cut the void in its wake.
Whoosh!
While Duan Lingtian was putting the silk thread in the assassin's Spatial Ring, Sun Liang Ping appeared next to Duan Lingtian in just a blink of an eye.
"Duan Lingtian, what's the cultivation base of this assassin?"
Sun Liang Ping asked curiously as he looked at Duan Lingtian.
"A Six Combos Celestial King."
