Dong Yue.
Dong Yue was a sectless cultivator in the Southern Heaven Territory who was a Ten Directions Celestial King who had comprehended two profundities from the law of water.
Previously, his best result in the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm was 13th place.
However, it had been more than ten years since his name appeared on the scoreboard in the upper realm.
Naturally, even if his name had not appeared on the scoreboard for more than ten years, nobody would think he was not even ranked in the top 100 in the past ten years.
"I thought Dong Yue had become a Celestial Lord more than ten years ago. That's why he didn't enter the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm … I didn't expect him to remain a Celestial Lord for more than ten years."
Someone in a safe zone in the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm sighed.
"Do you think it's that easy to become a Celestial Lord? If it's that easy, there wouldn't be so few Celestial Lords in the Southern Heaven Territory. In my opinion, Dong Yue has been in closed-door cultivation for more than ten years. "
"Dong Yue is really strong this time. It has only been three months, but he's already ranked 19th."
"It seems like Dong Yue's strength has improved over the past ten years. As long as he's lucky, he'll be able to rank in the top ten."
…
At this moment, the sectless cultivator, Dong Yue, was the topic of discussion in the safe zones of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.
After all, not only did Dong Yue, who had disappeared for more than ten years, appear again, but he had also risen to the 19th place in such a short time.
"I remember Dong Yue didn't kill indiscriminately in the past. However, he killed almost all the people he eliminated this time."
"I don't know … Perhaps, something happened to him in the past ten years."
"He's almost on par with Zhang Jin Yi from last year."
"Speaking of Zhang Jin Yi, why didn't he enter the upper realm this year?"
"Perhaps, he wants to enter at the end of the year. His speed on the scoreboard is much faster than Dong Yue's. "
…
At this moment, the people in the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm did not expect the real Dong Yue to be dead.
After all, the real Dong Yue was Zhang Jin Yi.
In the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, one could leave one's name on the Identity Jade Token as long as it did not overlap with someone else's name.
This time, when Zhang Jinyi entered, he left the name 'Dong Yue'.
"It's been four months … and they still haven't come in?"
Zhang Jinyi hovered in the air above a blood-red forest. He glanced at the scoreboard through his Identity Jade Token, only to discover that Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er's names were not on the scoreboard.
"Could it be that they also came in under fake names?"
Zhang Jinyi could not help but think so.
With this thought in mind, Zhang Jin Yi sent a message to Zhang Dong Nan, the patriarch of the Phantom Fox Clan. Zhang Dong Nan immediately instructed Zhang Yun Ting's son to check the scoreboard.
Zhang Yun Ting's son quickly replied to Zhang Dong Nan, "Clan leader, the remaining people on the scoreboard are all frequent visitors to the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Their rankings are the same as before … Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er haven't entered the upper realm yet."
After receiving the reply, Zhang Dong Nan immediately sent another message to Zhang Jin Yi. "Lord Envoy, Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er haven't entered the upper realm yet. Please wait a little longer."
However, because of Zhang Dongnan's words, Zhang Jinyi had to wait for a hundred years.
'This is the last time I'll enter the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. If Duan Lingtian and Huan' er still haven't entered the upper realm, I'll have to return as well. '
Zhang Jinyi entered the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm again.
This was the 100th time Dong Yue had entered the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm using the name Dong Yue.
Throughout the past 100 years, he had barely made it into the top ten in the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm to avoid attracting too much attention.
However, as soon as he entered the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, he would crush his Identity Jade Token and leave. He was not interested in staying in the upper realm for long.
Initially, he had planned to return to the Phantom Fox Clan in the Heavenly Territory after waiting for a few years, but Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er still had not entered the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.
However, a message from the Grand Elder of the Zhang Clan stopped him. "Jinyi, I know you don't want to stay in the Southern Heaven Territory, but the matter of the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox is very important. You'll have to wait for 100 years. If she still hasn't shown up after 100 years, you'll have to return."
Due to the Grand Elder's words, Zhang Jin Yi had no choice but to stay in the upper realm of the Phantom Fox Clan.
In just a blink of an eye, 100 years had passed.
'Finally, I can return.'
Zhang Jin Yi felt refreshed after entering the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. After all, he would be able to leave the Southern Heaven Territory and return to the Heavenly Territory after the scoreboard was reset.
'Since this is the last time, I won't hold back anymore. I'll make sure Dong Yue ranks first this year!'
Throughout the past 99 years, he had never given it his all.
However, this time, he decided to give it his all to bring the name he had used for 100 years to the top of the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.
…
In the Profound Nether Mansion.
In the Imperial Tutor Pavilion.
"Senior."
An old man who was fishing in the backyard was awakened by the voice behind him. He put down his fishing rod and turned around to see a purple-clad young man standing nearby.
Beside the purple-clothed young man stood a woman in white. They looked like a golden couple standing next to each other.
"Both of you have been in closed-door cultivation for 100 years … How is it? How's your cultivation base now? "
The old man asked with a smile.
He did not expect Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er to be in closed-door cultivation for 100 years.
Nevertheless, Duan Ling Tian still asked the Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion to look for cultivation resources for the duo while they were in closed-door cultivation.
Over the past 100 years, at least half of the Profound Nether Mansion's wealth had been spent on the duo.
"Huan 'er has become a Ten Directions Celestial King. She's only one step away from becoming a Celestial Lord."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
In just a blink of an eye, 100 years had passed.
Initially, he did not plan to cultivate in seclusion for so long. However, after consuming the five Flaming Green Striped Fruits, Huan 'er gave him ten drops of blood essence as well. With that, his cultivation base rose from a Three Talents Celestial King to a Seven Stars Celestial King in just a short time.
Huan 'er had also become extremely weak due to the overdraft of her blood essence.
She would need to recuperate for ten years to recover from a single drop of blood essence.
On the other hand, she would need 100 years to recover from ten drops.
Fortunately, even though she had used ten drops of blood essence, it didn't affect her cultivation or her comprehension of the law of space through the Supreme Quintessence Godhead.
Since Huan 'er wanted to recuperate, he planned to explore the upper realm alone. However, when he saw the longing in Huan' er's eyes and the fact that he had promised her that he would never leave her side again, he decided against it.
Therefore, he accompanied Huan 'er and cultivated in closed-door cultivation for 100 years.
"What about you?"
The old man asked.
"I … I'm still far from becoming a Ten Directions Celestial King."
Duan Lingtian smiled awkwardly.
After 100 years, even with the endless cultivation resources provided by the Profound Nether Mansion, he had only managed to break through from a Seven Stars Celestial King to a Nine Palaces Celestial King.
"What do you plan to do next?"
The old man asked again.
"I plan to enter the upper realm again. After that, I'll leave the Spirit Overarching Heaven and travel to the Yan Huang Heaven."
Duan Lingtian revealed his plan. "When Huan 'er and I are strong enough to avenge the Imperial Tutor, we'll return."
"You're going to the Yan Huang Heaven? Why? "
The old man frowned in confusion.
"It's dangerous for Huan 'er to stay here. After all, the main Phantom Fox Clan in the Heavenly Territory is aware of Huan' er's existence. Even if they don't know for sure that Huan 'er is a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox, she's still in great danger.
If we leave the Spirit Overarching Heaven and go to the Yan Huang Heaven, we'll be able to avoid the main Phantom Fox Clan. "
Duan Lingtian said.
"There's a Phantom Fox Clan in the Jade Emperor Heaven as well."
The old man said, "However, compared to the main Phantom Fox Clan in the Spirit Overarching Heaven, the main Phantom Fox Clan in the Jade Emperor Heaven is slightly weaker.
After all, the main Phantom Fox Clan in the Jade Emperor Heaven is also a branch of the Spirit Overarching Heaven. "
The old man said.
"The main Phantom Fox Clan in the Jade Emperor Heaven is the Du Clan … They won't harm Huan 'er."
Duan Lingtian said with a smile.
In fact, 100 years ago, Duan Lingtian had learned from the Memory Celestial Talismans in the Profound Nether Mansion that the main Phantom Fox Clan in the Jade Emperor Heaven was the Du Clan.
Therefore, at that time, he felt that this was a miraculous coincidence.
The Jade Emperor Heaven was supposed to be a Devata Realm for him.
However, due to a freak combination of factors, he ended up in the Spirit Overarching Heaven and met Huan 'er.
Huan 'er was from the Du Clan in the Phantom Fox Clan.
"I see."
Realization dawned on the old man. Then, he said, "Since both of you have made up your minds, I won't disturb you any further. I only hope that both of you can visit me whenever you're free."
"Even if I'm not strong enough to avenge the Imperial Tutor …"
The old man said.
The old man was usually alone. Even if someone came to visit him, it would be the Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion.
Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er had been in the Imperial Tutor Pavilion for more than 100 years. Therefore, the old man had developed feelings for both of them.
He liked these two juniors very much.
In fact, he had a feeling they would surpass him in the future. If everything went well, they might even become titled Celestial Lords or ordinary Divine Emperors.
"Senior, we're not leaving yet … Let's talk about it after we leave the upper realm."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and said with a smile.
Without waiting for the old man's reply, Duan Lingtian took out the Transportation Formation compass and placed the Celestial Crystals on it. Then, he brought Huan 'er into the upper realm.
This was his second time entering the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.
Naturally, this would be his last time as well.
After they left the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, they would leave the Spirit Overarching Heaven and head to the Jade Emperor Heaven.
