The purple-clad young man stood on the Ultimate Martial Platform with a calm expression on his face. It was as if everything in front of him was of no importance to him.
He did not rejoice as if he already knew this would be the result.
Because of this, he gave off an unfathomable feeling as he stood there.
"I gave you a chance."
The purple-clad young man's words seemed to echo in many people's ears again. It was not until this moment that they realized that in the eyes of the purple-clad young man, Qi Yu was like a chicken that could not withstand a single blow.
If you were given a chance, you would live.
If you did not cherish it, you would die.
"When will the result of the Stairway to Heaven competition be released?"
Under the shocked gazes of the crowd, Duan Lingtian looked up at Tang Wuyan and asked.
"Huh?"
Tang Wuyan was still in a daze when she heard Duan Lingtian's question. She immediately returned to her senses and told Duan Lingtian the date the result of the Stairway to Heaven competition would be released.
"Understood. I'll take my leave first."
After getting the information he wanted, Duan Lingtian nodded and directly disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Only a pool of blood was left on the Ultimate Martial Platform.
After Duan Lingtian left, the crowd burst into an uproar as expected. "Oh my god! Duan Lingtian from the Hidden Mist Academy in Wind City is actually so strong? "
"Did you see how he insta-killed Qi Yu?"
"I feel that his sword move seemed simple, but Qi Yu was unable to block it."
"I don't understand. I don't understand."
…
Most people did not understand how Duan Lingtian killed Qi Yu. The Law of Space that Duan Lingtian displayed was only the fusion of three profundities.
The profundities of the law were not much stronger than the profundities of the law that Qi Yu displayed.
"Is this the difference between the Four Supreme Laws and the Five Elemental Laws?"
Some people questioned.
However, more people shook their heads and denied it. "The Four Supreme Laws are stronger than the Five Elemental Laws, but not to this extent … Perhaps Duan Lingtian used his bloodline power at the critical moment."
Even Tang Wuyan himself didn't understand.
Because of this, she couldn't help but send a message to Duan Lingtian. "Duan Lingtian, how did you kill Qi Yu? The Space Laws you displayed shouldn't be enough to kill him so easily, right? "
Duan Lingtian quickly responded, "Embryonic form of Sword Principle."
"Embryonic form of Sword Dao!"
When Tang Wuyan received Duan Ling Tian's message, Elder Peng and another inner sect elder who were on duty at the Ultimate Martial Arena today looked at each other before they instinctively exclaimed in a low voice.
Of course, only they could hear each other's whispers clearly.
The others were very far away from them, and the surroundings were filled with all kinds of discussions, to the extent that their voices were completely drowned out.
"Compared to revealing the fusion of two Profundities from the Law of Space … revealing the embryonic form of Sword Dao seems to be more low-key."
Duan Lingtian had already returned to his residence. After muttering to himself, he took out the five Creation Pills from the pile of gifts that Zhong Tiannu, the patriarch of the Zhong Family, had passed to him and swallowed all of them.
If Duan Lingtian had nine Creation Pills, with his talent, he would be able to break through to the God King Stage directly.
After all, nine Creation Pills would allow one to become a God King.
In the history of the various Planes of Gods, there was no lack of people who had just broken through and become a God King after consuming nine Creation Pills.
However, even without nine Creation Pills, five Creation Pills would be enough to allow Duan Lingtian's cultivation base to reach a higher level and bring him closer to the God King Stage.
He had rushed back precisely because he was desperate to consume the Creation Pills.
…
Revealing one of the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth, the Dao of Weapons, Sword Dao, was the decision Duan Lingtian made on the way to the Ultimate Martial Arena with Qi Yu.
Of course, he didn't completely reveal his attainments in the Sword Dao. He only revealed the embryonic form of Sword Dao.
Duan Lingtian, who had just comprehended the Sword Dao, could already operate the Sword Dao as if it were his own arm. It wasn't difficult for him to conceal his attainments in the Sword Dao.
The embryonic form of Sword Dao wasn't necessarily related to talent or perception. It could also be related to luck.
In the Planes of Gods, there was no lack of lucky sword cultivators who would accidentally comprehend the embryonic form of Sword Dao due to certain encounters …
It was also because of this that revealing the embryonic form of Sword Dao was much more low-key for Duan Lingtian than revealing the second fusion of three Profundities from the Law of Space. It also wouldn't attract too much attention.
In truth, it was fine if he attracted too much attention, but what he feared the most was attracting jealousy and hatred.
It was easy for geniuses to attract jealousy and hatred.
He had just arrived at the Hidden Fog Sect not long ago. He didn't have a backer and he had no intention of taking anyone as his master. He naturally had to keep a low profile.
However, he didn't plan on keeping a low profile.
Like today, when he killed Qi Yu, he didn't hold back at all.
And besides the fact that Qi Yu wanted to kill him, another reason was that he wanted to use Qi Yu's death to establish his prestige … although Duan Lingtian was a new disciple who had just entered the Hidden Fog Sect, he wasn't some soft persimmon.
"Once I become a core disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect, I can obtain the protection of the Hidden Fog Sect … at that time, even an ordinary core Elder won't dare to move against me."
At this time, Duan Lingtian thought of the Hidden Fog Sect's Second Elder, Tu Feng's master.
He had to teach Tu Feng a lesson. It was only a matter of time.
And as the saying went, 'after beating the young, the old will come'. After teaching Tu Feng a lesson, the Hidden Fog Sect's Second Elder would most likely stand up for Tu Feng. Even if he didn't personally deal with him, he would certainly use some small tricks.
An inner sect disciple could be expelled from the Hidden Fog Sect with a casual order.
But a core disciple was different.
The Hidden Fog Sect's Second Elder didn't have the qualifications to decide whether a core disciple should stay or leave.
"Next, I'll focus on breaking through to the Divine King realm … five Revival Good Fortune Pills should be enough for me to take a large step forward.
"If there aren't any accidents, the first place in this Heavenly Stairway struggle should be me. At that time, there will be another Revival Good Fortune Pill.
"Six Revival Good Fortune Pills will greatly shorten the gap between me and the Divine King realm.
"Once I become a Divine King, I will have the initial strength to protect myself in this completely unfamiliar Profound Handle Land."
…
After some thoughts flashed through his mind, Duan Lingtian calmed down and wholeheartedly immersed himself in cultivation.
And while Duan Lingtian was cultivating, the people around the Extreme Martial Arena began to disperse one after another.
As they left, news of today's battle between Duan Lingtian and Qi Yu spread out. Moreover, in a short period of time, it shook the entire Hidden Fog Sect!
Even some high level figures of the Hidden Fog Sect who knew of this were stunned. "Qi Yu died?"
"That brat Qi Yu actually died? I was planning on asking him later if he was interested in becoming my third disciple. "
"Without Qi Yu, we gained a Duan Lingtian … our Hidden Fog Sect didn't suffer a loss."
…
As the true high level figures of the Hidden Fog Sect were alarmed, Tu Feng, who was cultivating, was also awakened by a message from his master, the Hidden Fog Sect's Second Elder.
"Tu Feng, didn't you go to Hidden Fog Academy last time and accept Duan Lingtian as a disciple on my behalf?"
The Hidden Fog Sect's Second Elder was called Wu Fengyin. He was a middle-aged man who wore a loose green robe. Between his eyebrows was a vertical purple diamond-shaped mark. His face was hard and even though his robe was loose, it couldn't conceal his tall and sturdy figure.
"Go again and invite that Duan Lingtian over. This time, I will personally accept him as a disciple."
Wu Fengyin said.
Hearing this sound transmission, Tu Feng, who had just woken up from his cultivation, was stunned. "Master, didn't you say last time that since he doesn't know what's good for him, you wouldn't accept him as a disciple?"
"Is that so?"
Wu Fengyin lightly replied, "Even if that was the case, it was only a joke. Go and invite him over … he isn't even 3000 years old and yet he can instantly kill Qi Yu. If he becomes my disciple, his future achievements will be something that even I, Wu Fengyin, will have to look up to.
"If I, Wu Fengyin, can have such a disciple, my status in the Hidden Fog Sect will have a chance to rise even further!"
When Wu Fengyin sent another message, his tone was much more urgent.
"What!?"
Hearing Wu Fengyin's words, Tu Feng was scared silly. "Duan Lingtian instantly killed Qi Yu?"
"Master, are you sure you're not mistaken? The Qi Yu you speak of, is he the one who ranks in the top 10 of the Divine Spirit Realm inner sect disciples? The one who ranked in the top three of the Divine Spirit Realm inner sect disciples in the last Celestial Stairway struggle? "
Tu Feng couldn't help but ask. This was because he found it hard to believe that the one Duan Lingtian killed was the Qi Yu he knew.
"Besides him, who else could it be?"
Wu Fengyin lightly said, "I know what you're thinking … that Duan Lingtian, when he first came to the sect, was indeed only a middle Divine Spirit Realm. He wasn't Qi Yu's match.
"But, when he was on the seventh step of the Celestial Stairway, under the pressure of the gatekeeper, he smoothly broke through to the higher Divine Spirit Realm … then, he passed through the eighth step and ascended to the ninth before he was eliminated.
"If there are no accidents, he should be the first among the Divine Spirit Realm inner sect disciples in this Celestial Stairway struggle.
"In addition, not only did he comprehend the fusion of the three profound meanings of the Space Law, but he also touched upon the embryonic form of the Sword Dao. Moreover, he smoothly displayed it and killed Qi Yu with a single sword strike!
"Although the embryonic form of the Sword Dao might be due to luck, if he has the confidence, he might be able to grasp the Sword Dao!
"The Sword Dao, that is the Sword Dao … one of the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth. Even I, Wu Fengyin, have lived for tens of thousands of years and have yet to touch the surface of any of the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth. “
"I'll definitely accept this disciple!"
"Alright, you can go now."
Wu Fengyin's tone left no room for doubt.
"Yes, Master."
Tu Feng's eyes flashed coldly, but he didn't dare to lose his temper in front of Wu Fengyin. After he agreed, he was so angry that he smashed the bed under him.
"Damn it!"
"How can that Duan Lingtian have such strength?"
"Embryonic form of the Sword Dao? What kind of dog shit luck did he have? "
…
Tu Feng knew that once Duan Lingtian became his master's disciple, even if he was only his junior brother, his position in his master's eyes would be far higher than his.
He was destined to be trampled under Duan Lingtian's feet, even if Duan Lingtian's cultivation base was lower than his.
