The Teleportation Profundity that Duan Lingtian had comprehended was only at the rudimentary stage. His maximum teleportation distance was only 100 meters.
But now, the young man in purple who looked exactly like him in the illusion used the Law of Wood to condense vines that were full of thorns and directly sealed the area around him within a hundred meters, preventing him from using the Teleportation Profundity.
After all, even if Duan Lingtian used the Teleportation Profundity, he would still be trapped in the area covered by the thorny vines.
"Do you think that's all I have?"
Duan Lingtian sneered. His Celestial Origin Energy surged out of his body and merged with the Space Elemental Profundity to form the Spatial Territory around him.
The Spatial Territory Profundity was one of the profundities from the law of space.
The moment the Space Domain was formed, the Domain covered an area of ten meters. The thorny vines were immediately attacked by the Space Domain, and in the blink of an eye, they were riddled with holes. However, they were still holding on, as if they were not afraid of death.
Moreover, in the blink of an eye, a layer of faint green light appeared on the thorny vines. The green light appeared for a while, then disappeared. At the same time, it was not difficult to see that the thorny vines that were originally riddled with holes had completely healed.
The energy from the Spatial Territory continued to damage the thorny vines, but the green light healed the thorny vines in just a blink of an eye.
"Is this another profundity from the law of wood?"
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes when he saw this.
Up until now, the purple-clad young man who looked exactly like him had already cast several profundities from the law of wood.
Moreover, the purple-clad young man's cultivation base was the same as his, a Ten Directions Celestial Duke.
Duan Lingtian had discovered this earlier when they exchanged blows earlier.
"The Cross-Dimensional Slash Profundity!"
Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes. A tearing sound rang in the air as a tiny spatial tear appeared out of thin air beside him.
Just as the spatial crack opened, a greyish, blade-like flowing light flew out from behind the crack. It was like an attack from another dimensional space, crossing the space and arriving here.
Weng!
As the saber ray swept past, it left a saber mark in the air. Wherever it passed, the vines that enveloped Duan Ling Tian's body were all severed.
The saber light was like an unstoppable force. Wherever it passed, it was unstoppable!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
Just as Duan Ling Tian was about to use the law of space's Cross-Dimensional Slash Profundity to save himself, sharp wooden spikes shot toward Duan Ling Tian like arrows. At the same time, the wooden spikes shone with a green light. It was clear the Spatial Territory was no match for them.
However, if he used Dimensional Slash, he would only be able to destroy a portion of the wooden spikes. Most of the wooden spikes would still fly toward Duan Lingtian.
"Distortion Profound!"
Faced with the menacing wooden spike attack, Duan Ling Tian's robe suddenly fluttered. In the next moment, the space around his body began to distort and tremble again. It was as though the entire space had been distorted.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
The wooden spikes came one after another and entered the distorted space in a moment.
Immediately, the distorted space vibrated, and the wooden spikes that had shot in were broken and shattered.
But during this process, as the green light on the wooden spike flickered, the wooden spike that had been broken and shattered actually gathered together again, as if it was not affected by the distorted void at all.
Suddenly, a portion of the wooden spikes rushed through the distorted space and whizzed toward Duan Lingtian like the scythe of the Grim Reaper. They gradually closed in on Duan Lingtian and wanted to kill Duan Lingtian!
"Another Profound Meaning?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes were fixed on the wooden spikes that were whizzing toward him. After passing through the distorted space, the power of the wooden spikes that had escaped the net did not weaken at all. Instead, it seemed to have grown stronger.
Duan Lingtian did not find it difficult to discover that this fierce attack contained another Profound of the Law of Wood that his opponent had not used before.
"The Restraining Profundity!"
Duan Lingtian knew the illusion before his eyes was either the Pavilion Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion testing his strength or a test to see if he could become the first Imperial Tutor in the Imperial Tutor Pavilion in 30,000 years.
Naturally, he was more inclined to believe the former.
For this reason, even if he had other methods to defend himself, he still chose to use the Restraining Profundity from the law of space that he had comprehended.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
…
Duan Ling Tian's eyes were locked on the dozens of wooden spikes that were charging at him menacingly. He activated the Confinement Profundity and directly confined the space around them. It was as though he had placed them in a completely enclosed space.
In the next moment, the dozens of wooden spikes paused in the void as if they had collided with something. They were all blocked and then annihilated in the void.
Duan Lingtian was not surprised by this.
After all, he had discovered the wooden spikes were formed by his Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted with the law of wood's Fundamental Profundity, the Wood Elemental Profundity.
As soon as Duan Lingtian used the Restraining Profundity to block the wooden spikes, he saw a flash before his eyes.
In the next moment, not only did his opponent disappear, but the vast stone platform beneath his feet had also changed. It was as though nothing had happened.
"I'm out."
When light returned to Duan Ling Tian's eyes, he discovered he had returned to the valley. In front of him was a world filled with birds and fragrant flowers. There was also a simple and unadorned palace. On the plaque above the entrance of the palace, three large words were written in flamboyant calligraphy.
Imperial Tutor Pavilion!
"You want to become the Imperial Tutor of the Profound Nether Mansion?"
At this moment, a deep and hoarse voice rang in Duan Lingtian's ears.
Duan Lingtian could tell the voice belonged to the person who had injured Qi Tian Ming earlier. The person must be the elusive Pavilion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion's Imperial Tutor Pavilion. He hastily replied, "Yes, senior."
"Why?"
The deep and hoarse voice rang again. It was clear the person was asking why Duan Lingtian wanted to become the Imperial Tutor of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion.
Why?
Duan Lingtian was taken aback when he heard the question.
However, he quickly revealed the reason he wanted to become the Imperial Tutor of the Profound Nether Mansion. "This way, I'll be able to enter the Profound Nether Mansion through a shortcut. Moreover, if I become the Imperial Tutor of the Profound Nether Mansion, I'll be able to obtain a large amount of cultivation resources from the Profound Nether Mansion.
I want to use the Profound Nether Mansion as a springboard to leave the Profound Nether Mansion and the Southern Heaven Territory.
I don't plan to stay in the Southern Heaven Territory forever! "
Duan Lingtian's words were impassioned. To others, it seemed like he was unwilling to stay in the Southern Heaven Territory and wanted to be the tail of a phoenix.
However, the truth was that Duan Lingtian was not only unwilling to stay in the Southern Heaven Territory, but he was also unwilling to stay in the Devata Realms.
This was because his goal was to kill his way into the World of Divine Remains in the next thousand years and rescue his wife, his children, and his family and friends!
At that time, if he did not have the strength to transcend the Devata Realms, everything would be in vain.
"You're quite ambitious, and you're quite an honest person."
The deep and hoarse voice rang again. It was clear the Imperial Tutor agreed with Duan Lingtian's words. However, the Imperial Tutor did not say anything else. The atmosphere was deathly silent.
"Senior."
In the end, it was Duan Ling Tian who broke the silence. "Is everything I've just faced a test from the Imperial Tutor Pavilion? Or do you think I'm qualified to become the first Imperial Tutor in the Profound Nether Mansion's Imperial Tutor Pavilion in the past 30,000 years with my age and strength? "
"I merely wanted to test your strength earlier. It's not a test from the Imperial Tutor Pavilion," the Imperial Tutor Pavilion replied.
"Indeed, you're qualified to become the first Imperial Tutor in the Profound Nether Mansion's Imperial Tutor in the past 30,000 years. However, before that, you'll have to pass the test from the Imperial Tutor Pavilion."
"What test?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"You'll have to enter the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm and compete for the first place on the scoreboard. If you're able to rank first for 12 consecutive months, you'll be the first Imperial Tutor in the Profound Nether Mansion's history in the past 30,000 years!"
The Imperial Tutor Pavilion's voice continued to tell Duan Lingtian about the test from the Imperial Tutor Pavilion.
The test was to enter the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm and compete for the first place on the scoreboard.
If Duan Lingtian managed to rank first for 12 consecutive months, he would be the first Imperial Tutor in the Profound Nether Mansion's history in the past 30,000 years.
"Senior, this test …"
Duan Lingtian could not help but smile wryly when he heard the Imperial Tutor Pavilion's words.
Although Duan Ling Tian was confident in his current strength, it was still difficult for him to maintain the top spot in the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm for twelve consecutive months.
During his journey to the Profound Nether Mansion, Duan Lingtian had learned from Qi Tian Ming that the Ten Directions Celestial Dukes sent by the major Celestial Mansions to the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm were not to be underestimated.
"If you want to give up, you can leave the Profound Nether Mansion now. When the time comes for the Three Sects and Two Clans to recruit disciples, you can join the Profound Nether Mansion as a disciple of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. The test won't be difficult for you. "
The Imperial Tutor Pavilion's voice sounded as though he was certain Duan Lingtian would agree to the test.
After all, Duan Lingtian had said he wanted to become the first Imperial Tutor in the Profound Nether Mansion's history in the past 30,000 years so he could join the Profound Nether Mansion through a shortcut.
"I agree."
Although Duan Lingtian had no choice but to agree to the Imperial Tutor Pavilion's request.
He knew that he had sold himself out with his words, but he had no other choice now.
Moreover, it was only a matter of time before he entered the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.
Duan Lingtian had planned to rank first for 24 consecutive months in the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm so he could join the Profound Nether Mansion's clan and enter the highest stage in the Southern Heaven Territory.
The Profound Nether Mansion's clan was one of the Ten Major Clans in the Southern Heaven Territory.
