At this moment, Duan Lingtian, who'd returned to the pergola, became the center of attention as expected.
"A 22 year old fourth level Nascent Soul Stage martial artist …"
Besides the three higher-ups of the Seven Star Sword Sect, the Sect Leaders and elders of the other four great sects looked at Duan Lingtian with extremely complicated gazes.
In the past, they'd noticed the powerlessness of the Seven Star Sword Sect's younger generation.
They originally thought that the Seven Star Sword Sect would fall from grace.
But unexpectedly, such a monster had actually appeared in the Seven Star Sword Sect!
"This Seven Star Sword Sect disciple has stepped into the fourth level of the Nascent Soul Stage at the mere age of 22? Simply abnormal! "
"Such natural talent surpasses any one of the five great young masters of our Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom."
"Exactly, even if it's the leader of the five great young masters, in terms of natural talent, he's far inferior to this Seven Star Sword Sect disciple."
"Duan Lingtian … Just like his name, he possesses the potential to soar above the heavens! That Mountain Split Sect disciple didn't have eyes and offended him. Not only did he have his legs broken, he was angered to the point he fainted. "
…
The disciples of the various sects recovered from their shock and were all astounded.
The scene before them had completely exceeded their expectations!
If they didn't see it with their own two eyes, they wouldn't dare believe that all this was true.
A martial artist with such monstrous natural talent had actually appeared in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom …
"In the history of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, there seems to have never been an existence that stepped into the fourth level of the Nascent Soul Stage at the age of 22."
The Snow Moon Sect's female disciple, Liu Yue, sighed.
She felt that her natural talent in the Martial Dao was extremely high, and was only inferior to the five great young masters in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom …
In the past, only the five great young masters were able to make her accept them.
But today, after witnessing the strength revealed by this Seven Star Sword Sect disciple at such an age with her own two eyes, she realized that there was actually an existence that had natural talent in the Martial Dao that surpassed the five great young masters hidden within the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom.
"Such a monstrous disciple has actually appeared in the Seven Star Sword Sect?"
The eyes of the Saber Young Master, Long Yun, jumped with burning flames as he sized up Duan Lingtian with interest, and he wished for nothing more than to directly charge out and spar with Duan Lingtian. "Duan Lingtian, right? I, Long Yun, will remember you. "
Now, it wasn't just Long Yun who remembered the name 'Duan Lingtian'.
The people present might never forget this name for the rest of their lives.
A 22 year old fourth level Nascent Soul Stage martial artist …
Such an achievement meant that this person was destined to be extraordinary.
Sitting in the pavilion, Duan Lingtian was unmoved by all the gazes that were directed at him. His face was calm and collected.
Such composure caused many people present to secretly praise him. "This Duan Lingtian is not only talented in the Martial Dao, but also has an extremely tenacious temperament … He's neither arrogant nor rash, neither servile nor overbearing, which is extremely rare!"
"Sect Leader Linghu, congratulations on having such a monstrous disciple in your sect."
As the host, the Demonic Lotusblade Sect's Leader was the first to recover from his shock, and he congratulated the Seven Star Sword Sect's Leader, Linghu Jin Hong.
The words of the Demonic Lotusblade Sect's Sect Leader were like a fuse that lit up the atmosphere of the scene.
The Sect Leaders of the other three great sects congratulated Linghu Jin Hong as well. "Congratulations Sect Leader Linghu, the Seven Star Sword Sect has a successor."
"Everyone, you're too kind."
Linghu Jin Hong lightly smiled as he nodded, and he had the demeanor of a great leader and was extremely appropriate.
Zheng Fan and Ke Zhen, the two Peak Masters of the Seven Star Sword Sect, sat by Linghu Jin Hong's side, and now they felt extremely honored …
It wasn't the first time they'd followed the Sect Leader to observe the Martial Competition of the five great sects.
But it was still the first time they could hold their heads high like this.
For a moment, their gazes seemed as if they'd discussed it beforehand as they descended onto Duan Lingtian, and their faces were covered in brilliant smiles.
They knew clearly in their hearts.
It was all thanks to Duan Lingtian that they were able to enjoy everything they had now.
Of course, there were also some people that had extremely unsightly expressions.
Huang Ji, who sat in the same pavilion as Duan Lingtian, clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes emitted boundless resentment …
As far as he was concerned.
It was Duan Lingtian who'd seized the thing that should've belonged to him.
Presently, Duan Lingtian even had the possibility of becoming the future Sect Leader of the Seven Star Sword Sect.
He was unwilling!
He was the true personal disciple of the Seven Star Sword Sect's Leader, an existence that was going to become the next Sect Leader of the Seven Star Sword Sect.
"No one can seize my position of Sect Leader … Duan Lingtian, you're no exception!"
Huang Ji's gloomy gaze descended onto Duan Lingtian, and it seemed as if it was waiting to swallow him up.
"The Martial Competition of the five great sects, continue!"
When he saw the unconscious Mountain Split Sect disciple being carried back to the pavilion by his companions, the Demonic Lotusblade Sect's Leader, the host, abruptly spoke out.
Even though his voice wasn't loud, it entered into the ears of everyone present. "Besides the same rewards as before, the rewards for the top three in the Martial Competition this time … I'll personally take out a Dark Nascent Pill as the reward for the first in the Martial Competition this time."
Profound Nascent Pill!
As soon as the Demonic Lotusblade Sect's Leader finished speaking.
As expected, waves of gasping sounded out within the Martial Competition Courtyard …
Profound Nascent Pill, grade six medicinal pill.
It was also known as the most difficult grade six medicinal pill to refine.
Even though the Profound Nascent Pill was only a grade six medicinal pill, practically no grade six alchemist was able to refine it.
At least, in the history of Cloud Continent, there had never been a grade six alchemist that was able to successfully refine the Profound Nascent Pill …
Even if a grade five alchemist were to refine the Profound Nascent Pill, the success rate would be pitifully low.
Not even 1%.
The preciousness of the Profound Nascent Pill could be imagined.
Of course, the reason the Profound Nascent Pill was precious wasn't only because of this.
The most precious thing about the Profound Nascent Pill was its medicinal strength.
Supposedly, the natural talent of a person that consumed the Profound Nascent Pill would increase greatly in the next half a year …
During the period the medicinal strength existed, the advancement of one's cultivation would increase by leaps and bounds.
Cultivating for half a year was comparable to cultivating normally for a year.
"Profound Nascent Pill!"
At this moment, besides Duan Lingtian who had a calm expression and seemed as if he utterly didn't hear what the Demonic Lotusblade Sect's Leader said, the gazes of the remaining people, including the Saber Young Master, lit up.
A Profound Nascent Pill was sufficient to allow them to achieve twice the result with half the effort …
Consuming the Profound Nascent Pill to cultivate for half a year was comparable to a year of cultivation in the past!
The Profound Nascent Pill was extremely tempting to them.
"Profound Nascent Pill?"
Duan Lingtian had a calm expression as flowing lights revolved within his eyes. "If I didn't consume the 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk, then perhaps this Profound Nascent Pill would be useful to me … Now, even if I was given 100 Profound Nascent Pills, it would be of no use in the slightest."
"Because my current natural talent has already reached the limit of a martial artist's natural talent in Cloud Continent!"
As someone that had fused with the lifetime worth of memories of Emperor Wu of Samsara, Duan Lingtian naturally knew what the Profound Nascent Pill was.
The Profound Nascent Pill was a grade six medicinal pill that had a huge difference between effort and return.
It was impossible for a grade six alchemist to refine it successfully.
Even if a grade five alchemist refined it, the success rate wouldn't exceed 1% …
"Even the Samsara Emperor Wu of all those years ago was only barely confident in being able to refine the Profound Nascent Pill with 100% success rate after he became a Royal Grade Alchemist!"
The refinement of the Profound Nascent Pill was related to the grade of the pill fire.
The higher the grade of the pill fire, the higher the success rate of the refinement of the Profound Nascent Pill.
Through the memories of Emperor Wu of Samsara, Duan Lingtian found out that those high grade alchemists wouldn't spend a large amount of time, energy, and materials to refine the Profound Nascent Pill that was known as one of the medicinal pills with the lowest success rate in Cloud Continent.
Only because refining the Profound Nascent Pill was completely strenuous and thankless.
"The materials to refine the Profound Nascent Pill once would cost 100,000 gold … 100 times would be 10,000,000 gold! Even if a grade five alchemist were to spend 10,000,000 gold in materials, he might not be able to refine the Profound Nascent Pill. "
Duan Lingtian knew clearly in his heart that the success rate of the Profound Nascent Pill was so low that it had already reached a shocking level.
During the second lifetime of Emperor Wu of Samsara, he'd once seen a stubborn grade five alchemist go mad for the sake of refining a Profound Nascent Pill.
It wasn't because of anything else, it was only because that grade five alchemist had spent 100,000,000 gold in materials, but still wasn't able to refine even a single Profound Nascent Pill …
The Profound Nascent Pill, in terms of its foundation, was a type of medicinal pill that had a heaven and earth difference in return.
At the very least, Duan Lingtian wasn't the slightest bit interested in refining the Profound Nascent Pill.
"Perhaps, only those alchemists that really don't lack money and have sufficient patience would refine the Profound Nascent Pill … The medicinal strength of the Profound Nascent Pill is indeed shocking. A person that consumes a Profound Nascent Pill doesn't feel anything, but to an alchemist, it's a type of torment and torture. "
Duan Lingtian was deeply aware of this point.
"Of course, there's also an exception … Perhaps there's an extremely small number of grade five alchemists that have an outburst of luck and only need one try to refine the Profound Nascent Pill."
Right when this thought arose within Duan Lingtian's heart.
"This Profound Nascent Pill in my hand was inadvertently refined by a grade five alchemist friend of mine by relying on luck, and he only consumed a single portion of materials."
The words of the Demonic Lotusblade Sect's Leader entered into Duan Lingtian's ears in a timely manner.
"There's really an alchemist that has an outburst of luck?"
Duan Lingtian was stunned.
After all, even though the success rate of a grade five alchemist when refining a Profound Nascent Pill was set at 1% ….
But if an outburst of luck occurred, then the grade five alchemist still had the chance to refine it in one go.
If one was unlucky, then even if one refined it a thousand times, one might not be able to refine a single Profound Nascent Pill.
That friend of the Demonic Lotusblade Sect undoubtedly belonged to the former.
An outburst of luck!
"So that's how it is."
"I was wondering why someone would refine a Profound Nascent Pill …. Sect Leader Long, the luck of that friend of yours is really heaven defying!"
"Sect Leader Long, the reason you took out this Profound Nascent Pill as the reward for the first in the Martial Competition is probably because you intend to bestow it to your Demonic Lotusblade Sect's Saber Young Master, your foster son, Long Yun, right?"
Besides Linghu Jin Hong, the Sect Leaders of the other three great sects looked at the Demonic Lotusblade Sect's Leader as they spoke successively.
