At this moment, the two behemoths behind Dugu Wen were none other than the two Ning Dragons.
Previously, in the Genius Secret Realm in the Jade Emperor Heaven's Nan Dou Territory, Huan 'er had made a pact with the two Ning Dragons to bring them out of the Genius Secret Realm. For this reason, the Ning Dragons had allowed Duan Ling Tian and the others to enter God's Secret Treasure in advance.
In the end, with the help of the World Cleansing Divine Water, the two Ning Dragons were willing to follow Duan Lingtian for the time being. When the time came, Duan Lingtian would have to return the favor to them.
"If they join forces and unleash their full strength, their attack is comparable to the full-strength attack of an ordinary titled Celestial Emperor … However, they can only unleash such an attack three times at most."
The World Cleansing Divine Water's words rang in Duan Lingtian's ears.
For this reason, after the two Ning Dragons injured Duan Lingtian, Duan Lingtian did not hesitate. He leaped into the air with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword in his hand.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
…
The sound of swords whistling could be heard as beams of rainbow-colored sword radiance fell like a rain of swords, cutting off the willow branches and vines that were wrapped around the Pine Willow Divine Tree.
Under normal circumstances, with Dugu Wen's Fused Profundity Profundity, the vines would be able to heal themselves and continue to bind the willow branches.
However, the current situation was not normal at all.
Dugu Wen was injured.
Moreover, he was severely injured.
"Barf!"
Duan Lingtian spat out a mouthful of blood. When he regained his senses, he saw Duan Lingtian had already severed the vines.
Duan Lingtian's expression darkened as he glared at Duan Lingtian coldly. "Brat, you tricked me!"
Now, if he still couldn't react, then he would have lived for so many years in vain.
Swoosh!
At the same time, Dugu Wen's figure flashed, and he dodged the attacks of the two Ning Dragons.
However, just as he moved, the willow branches of the Pine Willow Divine Tree broke free from the restraints and followed him like a shadow. In the blink of an eye, they turned into a cage and trapped Dugu Wen within.
"Withdraw!"
Duan Lingtian's gaze turned cold. The willow branches of the Pine Willow Divine Tree wrapped around Dugu Wen and pulled him back.
In the end, Dugu Wen stood motionless in the air. The Pine Willow Divine Tree's avatar was pulled to its limit, and it flew towards Dugu Wen.
"Attack!"
The World Cleansing Divine Water's voice entered Duan Lingtian and the Ning Dragons' ears almost simultaneously, causing them to tremble slightly.
Following that, the two Ning Dragons flew out as fast as they could. Once again, they joined forces and launched an all-out attack. A terrifying power swept out and swept towards Dugu Wen, who was trapped in the willow branches of the pine tree.
"No!"
Dugu Wen stood on the spot and gathered his strength. Just as he was about to break through the Pine Willow Divine Tree's encirclement, he was met with the full force of the two Ning Dragons.
Boom!!
Rumble!!
…
With a series of explosions, Dugu Wen, who had not been able to break free in time, received another attack from the two Ning Dragons while he was heavily injured. Blood spurted out of his mouth, and his face was covered in blood, making him look quite ferocious.
"Damn it!
A mere Celestial Lord actually forced me, Dugu Wen, to such a state …
"Unforgivable! Unforgivable! "
Dugu Wen was completely enraged.
In just a blink of an eye, Dugu Wen's body swayed before he transformed into a thread and easily broke free from the Pine Willow Divine Tree's encirclement.
This was one of the 100 transformations Dugu Wen could perform as a Hundred Colors Flower.
"You're finally out?"
Dugu Wen thought he had successfully escaped from the Pine Willow Divine Tree's encirclement, but he saw Duan Lingtian waiting outside.
"Brat, without the Pine Willow Divine Tree, you won't be a match for me even if I'm severely injured."
In just a blink of an eye, the thread transformed into a young man who stared at Duan Lingtian coldly. At the same time, he brandished his Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon and charged toward Duan Lingtian.
He knew he had to kill Duan Ling Tian as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the Pine Willow Divine Tree's willow branches and the Ning Dragons arrived, he would definitely die with his severely injured body!
Dugu Wen felt extremely humiliated.
He was a titled Celestial Emperor, and yet, he was forced into such a state by a mere Celestial Lord.
Needless to say, he knew the Celestial Lord before him was not an ordinary Celestial Lord. Putting aside the Pine Willow Divine Tree Godly Image Phenomenon, just the two Ning Dragons alone were comparable to a titled Celestial Emperor.
Duan Lingtian's injuries were caused by the two Ning Dragons.
"Duan Lingtian, I'd like to see how you're going to fight me without the two Ning Dragons and the Pine Willow Divine Tree's Godly Image Phenomenon!"
Dugu Wen said as he stepped forward. His Celestial Origin Energy swirled around his spear as he unleashed all the profundities he had comprehended from the law of wood.
The three profundities from the law of wood were the first to charge at Duan Ling Tian. It was as though they had transformed into pythons as they charged at Duan Ling Tian.
At the same time, Dugu Wen was also able to unleash the other profundities from the law of wood.
"With your injuries, your Celestial Origin Energy is only comparable to an ordinary Celestial Lord at most. It's not enough to kill me."
Faced with Dugu Wen who was charging at him menacingly, Duan Ling Tian did not dodge at all. There was a sneer on the corner of his mouth as he charged forward. The Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword in his hand moved and merged with his body.
In the next moment, when the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword appeared again, he opened his mouth and spat out a seven-colored sword ray that carried five extremely powerful forces towards Dugu Wen.
"This is …"
At this moment, Duan Lingtian's attack was so close that Dugu Wen could clearly sense the energy of the Five Elemental Laws contained in the attack.
Boom!
Rumble!
…
However, before Dugu Wen could even react, Duan Ling Tian's seven-colored sword ray had already destroyed his two waves of attacks as easily as crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
There was no doubt that Dugu Wen's comprehension of the law of wood was powerful.
However, no matter how powerful the profundities were, they still required Celestial Origin Energy to activate. Currently, Dugu Wen's Celestial Origin Energy was extremely weak. His Celestial Origin Energy was, at most, comparable to Duan Lingtian's Celestial Origin Energy.
Under such circumstances, even if Duan Lingtian had comprehended all the profundities from the law of space to the mastery stage, he was still no match for Dugu Wen.
Their Celestial Origin Energies were similar, and their comprehension of the profundities from the law of space was similar. Therefore, Duan Lingtian was much stronger than Dugu Wen.
Under such circumstances, one could easily imagine who was stronger and who was weaker.
Dugu Wen thought this was the reason he had tried his best to kill Duan Lingtian even though he was severely injured. In his opinion, as long as he killed Duan Lingtian, he would have a chance to live.
However, he did not expect Duan Lingtian's strength was not as simple as someone who had comprehended all the profundities from the law of space to the mastery stage.
'He … He … He … He … He has five Divine Elements!'
This was the only thought in Dugu Wen's mind before he died.
As soon as Duan Lingtian's attack destroyed Dugu Wen's attack, Dugu Wen was certain Duan Lingtian's sword contained the energy of the Five Divine Elements.
Furthermore, it was the power of the five Divine Elements. Furthermore, those five Divine Elements were all in very different forms.
"Phew!"
After killing Dugu Wen, Duan Lingtian heaved a long sigh of relief. 'I only revealed the Five Divine Elements at the very last moment. It's impossible for him to have spread the news in such a short time.'
Duan Ling Tian had indeed guessed correctly.
Dugu Wen had only discovered Duan Lingtian had the Five Divine Elements before he died.
However, while Dugu Wen was escaping from the Pine Willow Divine Tree's willow branches, he sent several voice transmissions to Dugu Wu.
"Brother Wu, I might die in this brat's hands … I was too careless. I didn't expect him to possess a powerful Devata Artifact that contains an Artifact Soul and two Ning Dragons whose combined strength is comparable to a titled Celestial Emperor.
I'm heavily injured by the Ning Dragons. I only have a chance of survival if I kill him. If I don't kill him, I'll definitely die!
If I kill him, I might be killed by the Ning Dragons as well.
Come here as soon as possible. "
Before Dugu Wen made his move against Duan Lingtian, he sent a few more messages to Dugu Wu.
"Let's go!"
After killing Dugu Wen, Duan Lingtian took Dugu Wen's Spatial Ring. Then, he summoned the two Ning Dragons back to his Little World before he teleported away.
Although he was certain Dugu Wen would not have spread the news about him possessing the Five Divine Elements, Dugu Wu must have known Dugu Wen's whereabouts.
However, Dugu Wu definitely knew that Dugu Wen had made a move against him here, and he was most likely on his way here right now … Even if his teacher, Xu Lang, wanted to stall for time, he wouldn't be able to do so for long.
For this reason, Duan Lingtian's first thought after killing Dugu Wen was to flee as far as he could.
Naturally, Duan Lingtian did not forget to send a few messages to Huan 'er, Xu Lang, and the others to let them know he was safe.
"I'm fine now … You all should return to the Heavenly Pool Palace first.
I'll go back first, "Duan Lingtian said to Huan 'er and the others.
When Huan 'er and the others received Duan Lingtian's message on their way back to the Heavenly Pool Palace, they heaved a sigh of relief.
Prior to this, they had remained silent throughout the journey. Their hearts had been heavy.
However, now that they knew Duan Lingtian had escaped, they felt as though a huge rock had been lifted from their chests.
"Little Junior Brother, how did you escape?"
Hu Mei asked curiously.
"I killed him. Naturally, I was free."
At this moment, Duan Lingtian was not only responding to Hu Mei's question, but he was also responding to Xu Lang and Wen Wan 'er who had asked the same question.
Huan 'er was the only one who did not ask.
Hu Mei, Xu Lang, and Wen Wan 'er were shocked by Duan Lingtian's words.
Duan Lingtian said he had killed Dugu Wen?
Was that possible?
Meanwhile …
Dugu Wu, who was rushing towards the location where Dugu Wen and Duan Ling Tian were fighting, suddenly seemed to have noticed something. He abruptly stopped moving and looked at the Soul Pearl Fragment that appeared out of thin air in his hand. His expression abruptly changed.
"Little Brother Wen!"
