"Please tell Sister Huang 'er that she doesn't have to worry about me. I'm no longer the same as before. Even without her help, I'll still be able to make a name for myself in the Devata Realm!"
Ling Jueyun said to Duan Lingtian before he left.
Currently, Huang 'er had not fully merged with Duan Lingtian's prominent Celestial Weapon, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword. For this reason, she was still in Duan Lingtian's body and was unaware of what was happening outside.
However, when Duan Lingtian was talking to the Five Divine Elements in his body, Huang 'er had interjected. For this reason, she was happy for Ling Jueyun when she learned that Ling Jueyun had obtained the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit.
"He's grown up …"
Huang 'er sighed after listening to Duan Lingtian's words. She did not say anything else and fell silent again.
However, Duan Lingtian could hear the worry in Huang 'er's voice.
"With his current strength, it won't be difficult for him to grow up safely as long as he doesn't take risks recklessly."
Duan Lingtian comforted Huang 'er. Based on her words, it was clear she was in a better mood.
"It's time for me to return to the Spirit Overarching Heaven."
After Ling Jueyun's figure disappeared from sight, Duan Lingtian turned around and returned to Tianji City. He planned to use the Transporting Formation in Tianji City to return to the Profound Nether Mansion in the Southern Heaven Territory of the Spirit Overarching Heaven.
After all, Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, was the reason he was able to obtain the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit.
Previously, if it were not for the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman that Sun Liang Peng had given him, he would not have been able to escape from the Nine Palaces Celestial King from the Blood Skull Gang unless he used his consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon.
Moreover, even if he used his consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon to kill the Blood Skull Gang's assassin, he would still have to pay a price.
A Nine Palaces Immortal King assassin had comprehended far more profound laws than him. He was definitely not someone easy to deal with.
For this reason, when the two Nine Palaces Celestial Kings from the Blood Skull Gang attacked him a month ago, he did consider using the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon as a last resort. However, even if he used the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, he might not be able to escape unscathed.
After all, unlike when he left the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate, he was facing two Nine Palaces Celestial Kings.
Fortunately, Ling Jueyun had a Life-Saving Celestial Talisman with him. Otherwise, he would have had to rely on the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon to fight the two assassins from the Blood Skull Gang.
'The sect leader didn't waste the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman he gave me. Now that I'm a Ten Directions Celestial Duke, I should be able to enter the Profound Nether Mansion, right?'
On the way back to Tianji City, Duan Lingtian's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes flickered.
A Ten Directions Celestial Duke who was not even 100 years old would not have to go through the Profound Nether Mansion's recruitment process.
Previously, although he was not even 100 years old, he was already a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial and had comprehended two profundities from the law of fire, making him one of the rare geniuses in the Profound Nether Mansion.
Although there were not many people in the Profound Nether Mansion who had such achievements, there were still a few.
Moreover, in the history of the Profound Nether Mansion, the Southern Heaven Territory, and the Spirit Overarching Heaven, there were many people who were outstanding in the beginning but ended up mediocre and mediocre in the end.
Therefore, for a force like the Profound Nether Mansion, a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial who had comprehended two profundities from a law before the age of 100 was not worthy of the Profound Nether Mansion.
For this reason, Duan Lingtian had to stay in the Simplicity Celestial Sect and wait for the right time to enter the Profound Nether Mansion.
However, after Duan Lingtian consumed the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit, not only had he become a Ten Directions Celestial Duke, but he had also comprehended six profundities from the law of space.
Most importantly, Duan Lingtian was not even 100 years old yet.
It could be said that Duan Lingtian's achievements at such a young age were unprecedented in the history of the Southern Heaven Territory.
Even if Duan Lingtian had consumed the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit, Duan Lingtian's current achievements were enough to attract the attention of the Profound Nether Mansion.
In the Devata Realms, fortuitous encounters were also a part of one's strength.
…
In the Southern Heaven Territory of the Spirit Overarching Heaven.
The two Nine Palaces Celestial Kings from the Blood Skull Gang had returned empty-handed. However, since they did not mention anything about meeting Duan Lingtian, the Blood Skull Gang was certain that Duan Lingtian was dead.
After all, the reincarnated Celestial Emperor had sacrificed Duan Lingtian to the tree of the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit.
For this reason, the Blood Skull Gang decided to put Duan Lingtian's mission on hold.
Usually, if a mission was put on hold, it would mean the mission was over. However, since the target's body was not found, the mission could only be put on hold.
Under such circumstances, if the target did not show up, the mission would be put on hold.
However, if the target showed up in front of everyone, and the Blood Skull Gang confirmed that the target was still alive, they would restart the mission and wouldn't give up until the target was dead.
"The mission can't be put on hold … Even if Duan Lingtian doesn't return to the Jade Emperor Heaven, the mission can't be put on hold!"
Leng Ye, the Nine Palaces Celestial King from the Blood Skull Gang, who had just returned to the Spirit Overarching Heaven, said with a grim expression on his face when he learned that the mission to kill Duan Lingtian had been put on hold.
"Naturally, I won't reveal that I've met Duan Lingtian.
After all, Zhou Jun and I didn't manage to find Duan Lingtian. "
Leng Ye and the other Nine Palaces Celestial King had lied about not being able to find Duan Lingtian.
Based on this, the Blood Skull Gang concluded that Duan Lingtian must have been killed.
The Blood Skull Gang concluded that Duan Lingtian must have been sacrificed to the tree of the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit.
In fact, Leng Ye and the other Nine Palaces Celestial King could also say that Duan Lingtian had used another Wind Shadow Escape Talisman or that someone close to Duan Lingtian had used an Escape Celestial Talisman that was on par with the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman.
However, if they said that, they would have to explain the situation in detail.
In order to simplify the mission, they would have to lie about not being able to find Duan Lingtian.
However, now that Leng Ye learned that the mission to kill Duan Lingtian had been put on hold, he could no longer sit still.
Duan Lingtian, a mere peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, had escaped from him, a Nine Palaces Celestial King, twice. Leng Ye was greatly humiliated. He could not wait to tear Duan Lingtian into pieces.
Even if Duan Lingtian had not returned to the Spirit Overarching Heaven, Leng Ye did not want the mission to be put on hold.
After all, if the mission was put on hold, he would have to do it himself if he wanted to kill Duan Lingtian in the future.
It would be like looking for a needle in a haystack if he went to the Jade Emperor Heaven to look for Duan Lingtian.
However, if the mission to kill Duan Lingtian continued, even if Duan Lingtian was in the Jade Emperor Heaven, the Blood Skull Gang would still use their intelligence network in the Jade Emperor Heaven to search for Duan Lingtian.
'I should ask Wang Qian Zhan …'
Leng Ye suddenly remembered Wang Qian Zhan, the Grand Elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. He still had Wang Qian Zhan's Soul Pearl so he could contact Wang Qian Zhan.
Naturally, Leng Ye was unaware that Wang Qian Zhan was the Grand Elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
After Duan Lingtian escaped from him using the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman, Wang Qian Zhan had left the Simplicity Celestial Sect and was no longer the Grand Elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect.
After leaving the Simplicity Celestial Sect, Wang Qian Zhan did not have a good time.
His former enemies were afraid of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. However, when they found out he had left the Simplicity Celestial Sect, they immediately sought revenge on him.
"Lord."
When he received Leng Ye's message, Wang Qianzhan was hiding in a swamp. Even so, he did not dare to neglect Leng Ye's message.
"Based on what I know, Duan Lingtian is a disciple of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. His Soul Pearl should be somewhere in the Simplicity Celestial Sect. Can you check if his Soul Pearl has shattered? Is he dead? "
Leng Ye's tone was condescending, causing Wang Qianzhan's originally depressed mood to become even more depressed.
"Lord … What do you mean? Duan Lingtian might be dead? "
Wang Qian Zhan's eyes lit up immediately. A bright smile appeared on his gloomy face.
Initially, he still harbored resentment toward Leng Ye.
After all, he had openly colluded with Leng Ye to deal with Duan Lingtian. That was why he was expelled from the Simplicity Celestial Sect by Sun Liang Peng. However, at that time, Duan Lingtian was still alive. For this reason, he harbored resentment toward Leng Ye.
Now that he heard Duan Lingtian might be dead, his resentment toward Leng Ye disappeared.
"Yes."
Leng Ye replied. He briefly explained where Duan Lingtian had gone after leaving the Simplicity Celestial Sect's estate and how the reincarnated Celestial Emperor had plotted against the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit. "We couldn't find Duan Lingtian in the area where Duan Lingtian had stayed in the Yan Huang Heaven. For this reason, we believe he's dead and was tricked by the reincarnated Celestial Emperor into sacrificing the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree."
"Duan Lingtian was tricked by the reincarnated Celestial Emperor into sacrificing the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree?"
As the Grand Elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect who had lived longer than Sun Liang Peng, Wang Qian Zhan had heard about the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit.
For this reason, he laughed heartily when he learned Duan Lingtian had been tricked into sacrificing the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree.
The person who plotted against the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree was no ordinary person.
Leng Ye had said the person who plotted against the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree was a reincarnated Celestial Emperor. For this reason, Wang Qian Zhan did not think Duan Lingtian would survive.
"Lord Leng Ye, I think you're overthinking things. If Duan Lingtian was tricked by the reincarnated Celestial Emperor into sacrificing the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree, there's no doubt he's dead!"
Wang Qian Zhan laughed heartily before he replied to Leng Ye.
"I want to confirm whether he's dead or alive through his Soul Pearl."
