Duan Lingtian sighed as he stood in front of the Primordial Precipice.
After Duan Lingtian entered the Primordial Precipice, Tathagata, the Hall Master of the Title Temple's Xuan Yuantian Heaven Hall, did not personally verify Duan Lingtian's identity.
After all, other people could do the same.
"How confident are you?"
A figure stood near the Primordial Precipice. Even the people from the Heavenly Palace of the Primordial Heaven did not notice him.
At this moment, he was looking at Tathagata, the Hall Master of the Title Temple's Xuan Yuantian Heaven Hall.
"Don't worry, Vice Hall Master Xu. I'm 90% confident."
Tathagata replied confidently.
"You're not 100% confident? “
The person standing in front of Tathagata was none other than Xu Konghai, the Vice Hall Master of the Title Temple's Main Hall.
Tathagata was the one who had planned this. However, Tathagata had invited him to oversee the situation in case Feng Qingyang arrived too early and delayed his plan.
He needed more time.
For this reason, Tathagata had invited Xu Konghai here in hopes that Xu Konghai would be able to delay Feng Qingyang at the critical moment. This was to prevent Feng Qingyang from arriving too quickly and ruining his plan.
Naturally, Tathagata would not tell Xu Konghai that he was planning to possess Duan Lingtian. Moreover, Xu Konghai was unaware that Tathagata's body was currently being controlled by Yahiko from the Undead World.
Yahiko was very cunning. He knew the Title Temple would not let go of Duan Lingtian who had mastered two of the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth so easily. For this reason, he had told Xu Konghai that he would capture Duan Lingtian and send him to the Main Hall.
In fact, he had already made up his mind.
As long as he could successfully abduct Duan Lingtian, he would find a place where no one could find him. After a hundred years, his Divine Soul would recover and he would possess Duan Lingtian. Then, he would release Tathagata to bear the brunt of the Title Temple's wrath.
As for Feng Qingyang's anger, it was difficult for him to transfer it to Tathagata. He knew this very well.
Feng Qingyang and the Heavenly Emperor of Xuanyuan Heaven, Gongsun Xuanyuan, were old friends, so he believed Gongsun Xuanyuan's words. Gongsun Xuanyuan also knew that Yahiko had taken control of Tathagata's body.
On the other hand, the Title Temple would not believe Gongsun Xuanyuan's words so easily.
Even if they did, they would not give up so easily.
"Actually, I'm a hundred percent sure … But, there's always the possibility of an accident, so I can't be too sure."
Seeing that Xu Konghai was frowning with dissatisfaction, the Buddha, or Master Yahiko, narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.
"Yes."
Xu Konghai nodded. "Prepare yourself and make a move as soon as possible. As you said, Feng Qingyang left a Divine Soul Imprint on Duan Lingtian. If you make a move on him, Feng Qingyang will know immediately and rush over. "
"Understood."
Master Yahiko nodded before he left. He immediately went to look for the elder of the Primordial Heaven who was in charge of controlling the Primordial Precipice Formation. "I would like to enter the Primordial Precipice Formation."
The elder of the Primordial Heaven frowned when he saw Master Yahiko. He said hesitantly, "Temple Master Tathagata, the Primordial Heaven's Heavenly Emperor Palace has only agreed to allow 100 young geniuses to enter the Primordial Precipice Formation."
"I'm afraid you can't enter."
Tathagata was not surprised to hear the elder's words. He smiled faintly and said, "Elder, I'd like to enter the Primordial Precipice Formation to take a look at my disciples. I want to see if I can give them some pointers while they're comprehending the Primordial Precipice Formation."
"Can you do me a favor?"
Tathagata said as he took out a ferule from his Spatial Ring. "This ferule is an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon that I used in the past. Although its Artifact Spirit is injured and it'll take many years to recover, we Celestials don't lack time.
If you're willing to do me a favor, this ferule will belong to you. What do you think? "
A bright smile appeared on Tathagata's face when he finished speaking.
The elder of the Primordial Heaven's Heavenly Palace's eyes lit up when he heard Tathagata's words. However, he said warily, "Temple Master Tathagata, I'm afraid you don't just want to enter the Primordial Precipice Formation to give pointers to your disciples, right?"
An Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon with an Artifact Spirit.
Even if the Artifact Spirit was injured and it would take many years to recover, Tathagata was right.
"I like to talk to smart people."
Tathagata smiled. "Does it matter to you what I do in the Primordial Precipice Formation? If something happens, you can just say that I forced you to enter the Primordial Heaven's Heavenly Palace. "
"Even if you can't handle it, don't tell me an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon isn't enough for you to leave the Heavenly Palace of the Primordial Heaven and escape punishment?"
Tathagata asked.
On Tathagata's face, there was also a victorious smile.
He did not think Tathagata would refuse.
An Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon with an Artifact Spirit was extremely tempting to an ordinary titled Celestial Emperor. It was worth it even if he had to betray the Heavenly Palace of a Devata Realm.
The elder of the Heavenly Palace of the Primordial Heaven's expression changed several times before he finally accepted the ferule. "Thank you, Temple Master Tathagata."
As soon as he finished speaking, the elder of the Heavenly Palace of the Primordial Heaven opened the Formation and allowed Tathagata to enter. "Temple Master Tathagata, please enter."
"Alright."
Tathagata nodded. A hint of greed could be seen in the depths of his eyes as he flew into the Primordial Precipice. It was as though there were precious treasures waiting for him inside the Primordial Precipice.
After entering the Primordial Precipice, Tathagata concealed himself so that no one would be alerted.
Not long after, he found traces of his target this time.
A handsome young man in a purple robe with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes stood in front of a primitive precipice, comprehending the Law Marks left behind on the precipice. The faint aura of the Law of Space spread out from the precipice.
"This body is much stronger than mine."
The greed in Tathagata's eyes surged. He waved his hand, and in an instant, 36 golden beads flew out. They floated in the air in a very orderly manner, forming some kind of resonance with each other.
Swoosh!
Thus, a formation was set up.
"Hm?"
Duan Lingtian, who was comprehending the Primordial Precipice, sensed something amiss with his Divine Consciousness and quickly regained his senses.
With just a glance, he saw the Formation that enveloped him and a large space around him.
There was also a familiar figure.
Tathagata.
The Hall Master of the Title Temple's Xuan Yuantian Branch Temple.
"Hall Master Tathagata?"
Duan Lingtian turned around and looked at Tathagata with a grave expression. "Why are you here?"
"I'm here for you."
Tathagata stared at Duan Lingtian with shining eyes. He was like a wolf that had not eaten for a long time and was drooling over Duan Lingtian.
"I want to know … Why are you targeting me?"
Duan Lingtian asked bluntly. This was something that had been bothering him for a long time.
"Targeting you?"
Tathagata was stunned for a moment before he shook his head. "No, you're wrong. I'm not targeting you … I'm just interested in your body. Hmm, and your comprehension of the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth. "
As his voice fell, the greed in Tathagata's eyes, or more accurately, in Master Yahiko's eyes, was undisguised.
"You want to possess me?"
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes. He finally understood why Tathagata dared to probe him in front of his Master when he knew he had the Flaming Yellow Physique. It turned out that he wanted to possess him.
"Yes!"
Yahiko answered again. "However, because my Soul was injured by your Master Feng Qingyang, I have to wait for a hundred years before I can possess you."
"For the next hundred years, I will imprison you in my Small World."
"I know you have Feng Qing Yang's Soul Imprint on you … However, even if his Soul Imprint is here, he won't be able to save you this time …" Master Yahiko took a step forward and said coldly, "I know you have Feng Qing Yang's Soul Imprint.
"I will destroy his Soul Imprint so that at most he will know that his Soul Imprint was destroyed here, but he won't know who destroyed it."
"By the time he comes, I will have already left."
Yahiko smiled brightly. "In the future, when I possess your body and master two of the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth, coupled with my own means … Once I become a God, I will use your body to kill Feng Qingyang."
"That scene will be wonderful … I'm looking forward to it!"
Yahiko's eyes flashed. "Now, I will destroy the Soul Imprint Feng Qingyang left on you and imprison you … If you don't want to suffer, you'd better cooperate."
As soon as Master Mi Yan's voice fell, the Spirit Array that enveloped the area suddenly activated, and from his body, waves of extremely terrifying oppressive force swept out.
The Formation was used to prevent the Soul Imprint Feng Qingyang left on Duan Lingtian from transmitting information to the outside world. As long as the information was not transmitted, Feng Qingyang could only sense where his Soul Imprint was destroyed, but not what happened.
He did not want to expose himself for the time being.
However, Duan Lingtian remained calm as he faced Yahiko. "Thank you for answering my question."
"Hmm?"
Duan Lingtian's calmness was beyond Yahiko's expectations. At the same time, he could not help but have a bad feeling about this.
Almost at the same time, he felt an ominous premonition.
Whoosh!
The ear-piercing sound of a sword whistling in the air was earth-shattering. Then, the 36 dazzling pearls that formed the Formation shattered, and the Formation was destroyed.
In the next moment, a figure appeared next to Duan Ling Tian. His gaze was as sharp as a sword as he stared at Mi Yan.
Naturally, whether it was Duan Lingtian or Feng Qingyang who had just appeared next to Duan Lingtian, Yahiko was none other than Tathagata, the Hall Master of the Title Temple's Xuan Yuantian Subtemple.
