Duan Lingtian's attack was very fast.
He teleported behind Tu Feng, who had just mobilized his Divine Energy and was about to attack, and killed Tu Feng before Tu Feng could react.
If Tu Feng had been given a little more time, he would have been able to block Duan Lingtian's killing move.
However, slow was slow.
The slightest mistake was the difference of a thousand miles!
Duan Ling Tian relied on the advantage of mobilizing the Divine Energy from his 99 Heavenly Veins and the element of surprise from the Teleportation Profundity to kill Tu Feng.
Ordinary people who did not have 99 Heavenly Veins, even if they had comprehended the law of space, fused two of the three profundities, and the embryonic form of the Sword Dao, would not have the courage to do so.
Because it was too risky.
The slightest carelessness could allow the opponent to block his killing move, and because of the close distance, he would be in a passive position.
However, Duan Lingtian did not take any risks.
After all, his true strength was not limited to this.
Even if he failed to catch Tu Feng off guard, he still had the ability to turn the situation around. At most, he would just have to show more of his negatives.
Of course, if he could keep his trump cards, he would rather keep them.
For Duan Lingtian, this was like a gamble.
If he won, everyone would be happy.
If he lost, he would at most be more high-profile.
However, no matter what, Tu Feng was destined to die. It was just a question of how he would die.
"Fortunately, I didn't reveal too much of my strength."
Duan Lingtian was very satisfied that he had won the gamble and killed Tu Feng without further revealing his strength.
The strength he revealed when he killed Tu Feng was no different from when he had passed the core disciple assessment in Zhang Tianheng's Little World.
Higher God cultivation base.
Two of the three profundities from the law of space.
Embryonic form of the Sword Dao.
Low Grade Divine Sword.
Of course, he also revealed the number of Heavenly Veins in his body. He suspected to have 99 Heavenly Veins, but as long as no one investigated him, they would not be able to find out whether he really had 99 Heavenly Veins or not.
At most, they would only be suspicious.
After all, 99 Heavenly Veins were as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns in the Devata Realms. However, in the Realms of Gods, there were still many of them.
After all, the natives of the Realms of Gods had the blood of supreme powerhouses flowing in their veins.
"This Duan Lingtian has definitely passed the core disciple assessment!"
High up in the sky, the core disciple Lin Yijian said with absolute certainty, "This is the first time I've seen a lesser deity comprehend the fusion of two types of three profound meanings of any one of the Four Supreme Laws of Nature."
"Although the Divine Spirit Level Core Disciple Assessment is difficult for Divine Spirit Level Inner Sect Disciples, it's not difficult at all for Duan Lingtian."
The other core disciple nodded.
"Duan Lingtian!"
On the other hand, the young man in a black robe who had remained on the huge stone tablet suspended in the air had already descended. In the blink of an eye, he had landed on the Ultimate Martial Platform. He kept the stone tablet and looked straight at Duan Lingtian.
As soon as the black-robed young man appeared, many people in the surroundings turned to look at him.
"It's Senior Brother Shi Tongming!"
"I didn't expect to see Senior Brother Shi Tongming again after so many years here."
"When Senior Brother Shi Tongming was still an inner sect disciple, he was the strongest inner sect disciple. Later on, when he entered the God King Realm, he passed the core disciple assessment and became a core disciple."
"That's nothing. The most important thing is that after Senior Brother Shi Tongming became a core disciple, due to his outstanding performance, our Hidden Fog Sect's Supreme Elder, Elder Lei, took a liking to him and accepted him as a personal disciple!"
"Elder Lei? He's one of the four Supreme Elders in our Hidden Fog Sect? "
"That's right. The strongest of our Hidden Fog Sect's Highest Elders are Elder Wind, Elder Thunder, Elder Cloud, and Elder Fog. Their seniority is also very high. Even if the Sect Master were to see them, he would have to respectfully bow to them. And this Senior Brother Shi Tongming is Elder Lei's personal disciple. "
"The four Supreme Elders of Wind, Thunder, Cloud, and Mist rarely accept disciples. Unless one's talent is particularly amazing, they won't even think of accepting a disciple … for Senior Brother Shi Tongming to be accepted by Elder Lei, his talent and perception can be imagined."
…
As soon as Shi Tongming appeared, he didn't even need to introduce himself. Duan Lingtian learned his identity from the surrounding chatter.
The Hidden Fog Sect had four Supreme Elders. They represented the highest combat strength of the Hidden Fog Sect. He already knew this.
The four Supreme Elders were said to be stronger than the Hidden Fog Sect's Sect Master. They were the leaders of the Hidden Fog Sect's Supreme Elders. Let alone the core Elders, even the 19 Protectors and the several Vice Sect Masters were only 'little brothers' in front of them.
Even if the latter's seniority wasn't low and was even higher than theirs, they still had to be respectful in front of them.
After all, this was a world where the strong were revered.
"Senior-apprentice Brother Shi, are you looking for me for something?"
After learning of Shi Tongming's identity, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but ask why Shi Tongming had called out to him and why he had appeared at such a timely moment.
"You passed the core disciple test?"
Shi Tongming asked.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
When Duan Lingtian killed Tu Feng, everyone present had already guessed that Duan Lingtian had passed the core disciple test. But now that they saw Duan Lingtian personally admit it, they couldn't help but be shocked.
"Very good."
Shi Tongming looked at Duan Lingtian with appreciation. Then, he got straight to the point and said, "Duan Lingtian, my honorable master is Elder Lei. Are you willing to become his disciple and acknowledge him as your master?
"If you are willing, then from now on you will be my junior-apprentice brother.
"In the Hidden Fog Sect, if anyone dares to offend you, that is the same as offending me, Shi Tongming!"
Shi Tongming wasn't a talkative person to begin with. Thus, as soon as he opened his mouth, he went straight to the point.
As Shi Tongming's voice fell, the entire crowd went into an uproar. "Elder Lei wants to receive Duan Lingtian as his disciple?"
"Didn't you hear Senior-apprentice Brother Shi Tongming ask whether or not Duan Lingtian passed the core disciple test before asking? It's clear that Elder Lei has some requirements for accepting Duan Lingtian as his disciple. At the very least, Duan Lingtian has to pass the core disciple test and become a core disciple. "
"Elder Lei is one of the four highest existences in the Hidden Fog Sect … if one becomes his disciple, wouldn't they be able to walk sideways in the sect in the future?"
"How enviable. Unfortunately, I don't have this life. "
…
Now, it wasn't just the group of inner and outer sect disciples. Even the two inner sect elders on duty at the Extreme Martial Arena were looking at Duan Lingtian with envy.
In their opinion, Duan Lingtian was about to reach the heavens in a single bound.
"Elder Lei …"
Tang Wuyan also recovered from the scene of Duan Lingtian killing Tu Feng. When she looked at Duan Lingtian again, there was a hint of joy in her eyes. Those who didn't know might have thought that Elder Lei wanted to take her as his disciple instead of Duan Lingtian.
Tang Wuyan was the same as everyone else. She felt that Duan Lingtian wouldn't refuse to become Elder Lei's disciple. Even if Duan Lingtian had refused many core elders, protectors, and even people sent by the Grand Elders to find him.
Elder Lei couldn't be compared to the Grand Elders, Protectors, and Core Elders at all.
Perhaps Duan Lingtian wasn't willing to take ordinary Grand Elders, protectors, and core elders as his master because he was waiting for the four Grand Elders to take the initiative to accept him as their disciple.
And now, Duan Lingtian had waited for Elder Lei. How could he refuse?
"Senior-apprentice Brother Shi."
Duan Lingtian looked at Shi Tongming and faintly smiled. "Please help me tell Elder Lei that I, Duan Lingtian, thank him for his kindness.
"It's just that I, Duan Lingtian, already have a master, so I can only miss out on his kindness."
As soon as Duan Lingtian said this, Shi Tongming froze for a moment. Then, he looked deeply at Duan Lingtian and said, "So that's how it is. What a pity."
As his voice fell, Shi Tongming stepped into the air. A giant stone tablet appeared beneath his feet, carrying him and disappearing from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.
It was only at this time that the surrounding people recovered from the shock of Duan Lingtian rejecting Shi Tongming.
No one thought that Duan Lingtian would reject Shi Tongming and Elder Lei.
After all, this was an opportunity to reach the heavens in a single bound in the Hidden Fog Sect!
"Duan Lingtian actually rejected Elder Lei?"
"Heavens! Should I call him honest or stupid? So what if he has a master? Elder Lei is willing to accept him as a disciple. As long as he doesn't mention it, why would Elder Lei care? "
"Perhaps, this is the pride of a genius."
…
Most of the inner and outer sect disciples present found it hard to understand Duan Lingtian's choice.
Even Tang Wuyan was the same.
"Duan Lingtian, you should have agreed."
"Now that you've killed Tu Feng, even if the Second Elder won't easily act against you in the Sect, he definitely won't let you off … The Second Elder is famous for being protective of his own people, he definitely won't let Tu Feng's death go."
"And if you become Elder Lei's disciple, even he will have to consider whether it is worth it to make a move against you for Tu Feng's sake."
"If you become Elder Lei's disciple, it will be the same as having another life-saving charm."
Tang Wuyan's thoughts were simple.
Duan Lingtian had killed Tu Feng and offended the Second Elder. If he had Elder Lei as a protective umbrella, the Second Elder wouldn't dare to make a move against him.
But now, Duan Ling Tian had refused, and he was putting himself in danger.
"Everyone has their own ambitions."
Facing Tang Wuyan's dissuasion, Duan Lingtian responded with a sound transmission. His tone was indifferent, without the slightest hint of regret.
"You!"
Tang Wuyan was so angry that her face flushed red. She nearly vomited blood. She stomped her feet like a little girl and turned around to leave. Her angry appearance was like a little girl who was angry at her first love and had a conflict with her lover.
At the same time.
"Hu ~ ~"
The Hidden Fog Sect's Second Elder, Wu Fengyin, also relaxed after learning that Duan Lingtian had rejected Shi Tongming and refused to become Elder Lei's disciple.
A cold light flashed in his eyes. "Stupid brat … if you become Elder Lei's disciple, I definitely won't dare to make a move against you."
