Duan Lingtian was unaware that Yun Qing Yan had taken his family and friends to the Divine Offering Land to threaten Kerr. They had been sent out of the Divine Offering Land by Xia Jie, Xia Jie, Yun Qing Yan's third uncle.
After entering the mundane realms, each of them had their own encounters.
Among all the people he cared about, Kerr was the only one who remained in the Divine Offering Land.
To be more precise, she was in the Realm Battlefield where the Divine Offering Land intersected with the other Realms of Gods.
He was also unaware that the three little fellows who had their own fortuitous encounters had left the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven and returned to his hometown, the Saint Province Realm, in order to find him.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was completely immersed in comprehending the law of fire's Burning Profundity and Explosion Profundity. He was completely oblivious to what was happening outside.
He was waiting for Ling Jueyun to come looking for him in two years. At that time, he would leave the Spirit Overarching Heaven with Ling Jueyun and head to the Jade Emperor Heaven.
Of course, he had no idea if he would return after going to the Jade Emperor Heaven. He just wanted to wait for the time to come.
However, if everything went according to plan, he would return to the Jade Emperor Heaven.
After all, he still had to return the favor to Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
Moreover, it didn't matter to him where he was before the thousand-year period. He just needed to increase his strength as soon as possible.
A thousand years was not a short time, but it was not a long time either.
Therefore, he had to improve his strength as soon as possible so that he could return to the Divine Offering Land.
…
Duan Lingtian had stayed in Sun Liang Peng's residence for five years.
Wang Qian Zhan, the Grand Elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, was furious and helpless at the same time. "Is Duan Lingtian really planning to stay in the sect leader's residence forever?"
During these five years, Wang Qian Zhan had been keeping an eye on Sun Liang Peng's residence, afraid that Duan Lingtian would leave without him noticing.
For this reason, Wang Qian Zhan was exhausted.
Five years was not a long time for him, but concentrating on one place for five years was undoubtedly a kind of torture for him.
Four years ago, an assassin from the Blood Skull Gang had arrived at the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate.
Moreover, he was a Nine Palaces Celestial King assassin.
It would not be difficult for an assassin like the Blood Skull Gang to annihilate the entire Simplicity Celestial Sect.
However, due to his fear of the Profound Nether Mansion and the top clans in the Southern Heaven Territory, he did not even dare to enter the Simplicity Celestial Sect and kill them, let alone destroy the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
Although he did not dare to kill Duan Lingtian in the Simplicity Celestial Sect, he still looked for Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, to convince Sun Liang Peng to kick Duan Lingtian out of the sect.
However, Sun Liangpeng refused.
For this reason, the Blood Skull Gang had no choice but to leave the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate in a fit of rage.
At the very least, he managed to establish a connection with Wang Qian Zhan, the Grand Elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
For this reason, Wang Qian Zhan had become his informant.
Four years had passed, and the Blood Skull Gang's assassin had not completed his mission. Not only did he not leave the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate, but he even built a cave abode near the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate to cultivate.
He patiently waited for his target, Duan Lingtian, to leave the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate.
As soon as he received news from Wang Qian Zhan that Duan Lingtian dared to leave the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate, he would immediately make a move and kill Duan Lingtian.
…
Time flew by like a white steed flitting by a crack.
Two years had passed in just a blink of an eye.
"Duan Lingtian, I'll wait for you in Cauldron Mountain City, about 300,000 miles north of the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate. The Profound Nether Mansion has set up a Transporting Formation there that leads to various Devata Realms."
It had been two years and a month since Ling Jueyun had last contacted Duan Lingtian. Duan Lingtian finally received a message from Ling Jueyun.
"I'm finally going to depart …"
Upon receiving Ling Jueyun's message, Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up immediately. Then, he stopped comprehending the law of fire's Explosion Profundity.
As for the law of fire's Burning Profundity, he had already comprehended it three months ago.
Currently, Duan Lingtian had comprehended the following profundities from the law of fire:
The Fire Elemental Profundity, the Pillaging Profundity, and the Burning Profundity.
Apart from that, there was another thing worth mentioning.
A year ago, the Chaos Divine Earth, the Profound Divine Metal, and the Chaos Divine Flame had woken up one after another.
The reason they had been in a deep slumber for so long was because they did not dare to hold back when they helped Duan Lingtian.
For example, when the Chaos Divine Earth helped Duan Lingtian, it did not expend much of its energy. Therefore, it did not need to enter a deep slumber to recover its energy.
After replying to Ling Jueyun, Duan Lingtian sent a message to Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. He did not beat around the bush and said, "Sect leader, I need to leave the sect for a while."
A few breaths after Duan Lingtian sent the message, Sun Liang Peng's voice rang from outside the door. "Come out and talk."
Duan Lingtian left the ice bed and opened the door. He saw Sun Liang Peng standing in front of the door.
Duan Ling Tian was currently staying in a small courtyard in the residence of Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. There was a small stone table in the courtyard, and two stone stools were placed in front of the table.
When Duan Lingtian opened the door, Sun Liang Peng had already taken a seat in front of the stone table.
"Sect leader."
Duan Lingtian did not expect Sun Liang Peng would personally visit him after receiving his message. He was slightly touched.
"Have a seat."
Sun Liang Peng gestured for Duan Lingtian to sit before he asked with a frown on his face, "Must you leave?"
In Sun Liang Peng's opinion, Duan Lingtian must be aware of his current predicament. If he left the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate, he would most likely die.
However, Duan Lingtian still insisted on leaving. This meant he had a reason to leave.
For this reason, Sun Liang Peng did not stop Duan Lingtian.
"Of course."
Duan Lingtian replied solemnly.
"What's the reason?"
Sun Liang Peng asked.
"The Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit!"
Duan Lingtian did not hide the truth from Sun Liang Peng. After all, if he really obtained the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit and became a Ten Directions Celestial Duke, Sun Liang Peng would definitely be able to guess the reason when he returned to the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
Moreover, he was not worried that Sun Liang Peng would covet the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit since it was only effective for Celestial Dukes and below.
"T-the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit?!"
Sun Liang Peng's expression changed drastically when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. His eyes widened in shock.
Although there was no record of the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit in the records of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, as the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, he had heard of the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit when he chatted with his friends in the Profound Nether Mansion.
The Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit was a priceless treasure for Celestial Dukes and below.
If a peak Great Overarching Golden Celestial consumed the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit, he would be able to break through and become a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial.
A peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial who consumed the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit would be able to unleash the full potential of the fruit and become a Ten Directions Celestial Duke.
What did it mean to become a Ten Directions Celestial Duke from a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial?
When Sun Liangpeng learned about the existence of the legendary Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit, he was stunned for a long time. He never thought that such a heaven-defying Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit would exist in this world.
"Duan Lingtian, are you sure it's the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit? The Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit is legendary. I've only heard of it in other Devata Realms, but it has never appeared in the Spirit Overarching Heaven before. "
Sun Liang Peng replied.
Sun Liang Peng had learned a lot about the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit when he first learned about it.
Even if someone managed to plant the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit and had enough sacrifices, the success rate would be less than 10%.
"Yes, I'm sure."
Duan Lingtian nodded. Then, he recounted everything that Ling Jueyun had told him.
Naturally, he did not mention the artifact's soul since it would expose the fact that Ling Jueyun possessed an artifact.
After all, the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit was different.
Although the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit was priceless, it was useless to Sun Liang Peng.
On the other hand, Sun Liang Peng was willing to pay any price to obtain the artifact since he could use it for himself.
Duan Lingtian only said that Ling Jueyun was certain the person who came looking for him was a reincarnated Celestial Emperor. Moreover, he was 90% certain the person was looking for Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials to sacrifice to the secret realm where the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree was located.
As for the secret realm, it was most likely a Little World that the person had created in his past life. Only those below Celestial Dukes could enter it.
"If we're certain the person is a reincarnated Celestial Emperor and he's looking for powerful Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials like you to enter the secret realm, it's very likely he's looking for sacrifices to hasten the ripening of the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree."
Sun Liang Peng nodded. However, he could not help but frown. "However, many Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials are bound to die in order to sacrifice to the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree. Moreover, the reincarnated Celestial Emperor is bound to have the upper hand in this process.
After all, the secret realm where the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree is located should be a Little World he created in his past life. Although he might not be able to fully control the Little World in this life, he must have some tricks up his sleeve.
Even if the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree bears fruit, I'm afraid it won't be easy for you to obtain the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit.
"In fact, you may even lose your lives in the process!"
Based on Sun Liang Peng's words, it was clear he was certain Duan Lingtian would have a difficult time obtaining the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit.
"You've already used up your consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon. Even if you haven't used it up, you won't be able to use it since only those below Celestial Dukes are allowed to enter the secret realm. Even if you can use it, you'll be kicked out of the secret realm!"
Sun Liang Peng said.
