However, as far as I'm concerned, it's much easier for me to reach the Immortal Emperor Realm than most of the others. "
The cultivation of the Divine Emperor Realm was more than ten times harder than the cultivation of the Divine King Realm.
However, Duan Lingtian did not spend much time in the Divine King Realm. If he could only stay in the Divine Emperor Realm for a hundred years, Duan Lingtian felt that he was very lucky.
This was after he had taken into account the various things he had obtained from the Divine Treasury left behind by Divine Emperor Qin Wu.
Most of the things in the Divine Treasury left behind by Divine Emperor Qin Wu were only useful to Divine Emperors. In the past, Duan Lingtian had no use for them, but now they could be used.
Among them, there was no lack of cultivation aids.
He had originally planned to meet the Clan Master of the Tianlong Clan to thank him in person. After all, the Clan Master had taken great care of him by eliminating the Kuang Tianzheng branch for him.
However, since the Clan Master had no intention of meeting him for the time being, Duan Lingtian did not insist.
Although he knew that the Clan Master would still meet him if he insisted, he did not think it was necessary.
Now, he was even interested in the 'big gift' promised by the Clan Master of the Tianlong Clan. Since the Clan Master of the Tianlong Clan called it a 'big gift' and gave it to him after he killed the Elder of the Taiyi Sect, it could not be an ordinary item.
'However, with my current strength, it's impossible for me to kill the Elder of the Taiyi Sect.'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
"In that case, I'll take my leave first … Goodbye, Hall Master."
Duan Lingtian bade farewell to the Deputy Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall and left the Law Enforcement Hall. After he left, he immediately headed in the direction of the entrance of the Emperor Battle Dimension.
When Duan Lingtian left, the three White Dragon Elders who had sent him here and the others in the Law Enforcement Hall all looked at him respectfully.
In their eyes, there was a hint of fear.
They knew that from now on, no one in the Tianlong Clan would dare to treat the person in front of them as an ordinary inner sect disciple.
What a joke!
How could an ordinary inner sect disciple get the Tianlong Clan's Law Enforcement Hall to stand up for him?
"Although I can't kill the Greater One Sect's elder for the time being, I still have to go to the battlefield of the divine emperors."
"Just because I can't kill the Elder doesn't mean I can't kill the other Godkings of the Taiyi Sect … After all, the Elder of the Taiyi Sect represents the strongest force on the battlefield of Godkings."
"This time, I'll try my best to accumulate as many battle merits as possible and exchange them for some of the things that caught my eye previously."
"It would be best if I could gather enough battle merits to exchange for the things I want."
…
With this in mind, Duan Lingtian entered the Emperor Battle Plane.
This was his second time entering the Emperor Battle Plane.
Almost at the same time that Duan Lingtian entered the Emperor Battle Plane, news of the inner sect elder Kuang Tianzheng ambushing him spread like wildfire throughout the Tianlong Clan.
For a time, the entire Tianlong Clan was shaken.
"Inner sect elder Kuang Tianzheng ambushed Duan Lingtian halfway?"
"Do they have such a deep grudge? Kuang Tianzheng, as an Inner Sect Elder, actually dared to attack him in the sect. "
"As far as I know, the death of Kuang Tianzheng's disciple, Chu Han, seems to have something to do with Duan Lingtian … I heard this from a friend of mine in the Myriad Demon Sect."
…
Everyone was shocked that Kuang Tianzheng had tried to kill Duan Lingtian in the Tianlong Temple.
However, this was not what shocked them the most.
Instead, they were shocked that Kuang Tianzheng had tried to kill Duan Lingtian, but Duan Lingtian had not been killed!
"Elder Kuang Tianzheng is an inner sect elder, and he's one of the stronger inner sect elders … How can someone like him not kill a Godly King?"
"Even if Duan Lingtian is said to be invincible among those below the Godly Emperor level in the Tianlong Clan, shouldn't he be able to kill Duan Lingtian with a single strike if he ambushed him?"
"Could Elder Kuang Tianzheng have been careless?"
…
While many people were puzzled by this, a piece of shocking news reached their ears in a timely manner.
"Duan Lingtian has broken through to become a lesser Godly Emperor!"
"At the critical moment, Kuang Tianzheng even activated the power of his taboo bloodline and displayed the strength that could kill most lesser Godly Emperors, but he still failed to kill Duan Lingtian."
After this news spread, the Tianlong Clan was in an uproar again.
Just when everyone thought that this news was already very shocking, another piece of shocking news came.
"Kuang Tianzheng tried to kill Duan Lingtian in the Tianlong Temple. Kuang Tianzheng has been sentenced to death and executed on the spot by the Law Enforcement Hall."
"At the same time, the Law Enforcement Hall has ordered the arrest of Kuang Tianzheng's family members and disciples. Except for his second disciple, Zhong Can, no one was spared."
"Tomorrow, the Law Enforcement Hall will execute all of Kuang Tianzheng's family members and disciples who were arrested!"
When this news spread, the Tianlong Clan was shocked and in an uproar.
When Kuang Tianzheng tried to kill Duan Lingtian, even his family members and disciples were implicated?
"If Zhong Can, Elder Kuang Tianzheng's disciple, did not become the son-in-law of Deputy Sect Leader Xue … I'm afraid he will not be spared this time, right?"
"Oh my god! This time, the Law Enforcement Hall is really going to kill all of Kuang Tianzheng's family members! "
"The Law Enforcement Hall will not act rashly … Perhaps the other members of Kuang Tianzheng's family were really involved in the plot to kill Duan Lingtian."
…
Because of the Law Enforcement Hall's authority, most people in the Tianlong Clan believed that the Law Enforcement Hall was telling the truth. Otherwise, they could not imagine that the Law Enforcement Hall would do such a thing for an inner sect disciple.
However, for those who were in the know, they knew that the Law Enforcement Hall was helping Duan Lingtian to get rid of him!
For the Law Enforcement Hall to do such a thing, it was either the Law Enforcement Hall Master, who was the Golden Dragon Elder, personally gave the order, or the Sect Leader himself gave the order.
No matter which of the two gave the order, Kuang Tianzheng's family members were doomed to die.
…
Tianlong Temple.
In a secluded valley somewhere.
Thump!!
Accompanied by a soft sound, a young man suddenly knelt in front of a middle-aged man with a mournful expression.
A beautiful figure stood beside the young man. Surprisingly, it was a beautiful young woman. At this moment, she was looking at the middle-aged man before her and said coquettishly, "Father, please help Zhong Can and save the lives of his fellow disciples and his master's family."
The young man kneeling on the ground was Zhong Can.
This woman was Zhong Can's wife, the only daughter of the Tianlong Clan's Deputy Sect Leader, Xue Mingzhi.
As for the middle-aged man's identity, it was obvious that he was Xue Mingzhi.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
…
Xue Mingzhi sat in front of the stone table. A hint of helplessness flashed across his dignified face. At the same time, his fingers, which had been constantly tapping on the stone table, gradually slowed down.
Finally, he stopped tapping.
For a moment, the valley was silent.
"Before your master made his move, I promised him that after he died, I would protect his family and disciples."
Xue Mingzhi looked at the kneeling Zhong Can and said in a low voice.
The moment Zhong Can's eyes lit up, Xue Mingzhi continued, "However, this time, I really have no other choice."
Zhong Can's expression changed drastically.
The woman beside Zhong Can also frowned slightly.
At this moment, Xue Mingzhi continued to look at Zhong Can and said, "I can't save them. I've asked around … the extermination of your master, Kuang Tianzheng's family, was personally ordered by the Sect Leader!
Now, you should understand my helplessness, right? "
As soon as Zhong Can's words came out, his daughter's expression changed.
Zhong Can's expression froze, and his eyes were filled with disbelief. "The Sect Leader personally gave the order? How … how is this possible?! "
"At first, I also thought it was impossible."
Xue Mingzhi shook his head and said, "However, I later confirmed that it was indeed true.
"Perhaps, it's because of Duan Ling Tian's ability in the Divine Pill Dao that the Sect Leader values … Or perhaps, it's because of Duan Ling Tian's innate talent and comprehension ability."
For the Sect Leader, such a peerless prodigy should be on good terms with him, regardless of whether he stays in the Tianlong Clan in the future. This would only be beneficial to the Sect Leader.
"Do you understand what I'm saying?"
At this point, Xue Mingzhi looked deeply at Zhong Can.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Mingzhi added, "If you, Zhong Can, hadn't become my son-in-law, you wouldn't have survived this time."
"I understand."
After listening to Xue Mingzhi's words, Zhong Can was silent for a moment before he nodded. Then, he stood up, and a cold killing intent flashed in his eyes. "Father-in-law, what do you plan to do next?"
Zhong Can knew in his heart that his father-in-law was not someone to be trifled with.
He would definitely not let this matter rest.
Unless he could reach a compromise with Duan Lingtian.
However, from what he knew, there was almost no room for reconciliation between his father-in-law and Duan Lingtian.
"Father, you can't just let this matter rest like this."
At this time, the girl beside Zhong Can said in a low voice, "This matter is tantamount to the enmity of killing Zhong Can's father … you must avenge him!"
Xue Mingzhi glanced at the girl and sighed faintly. "Girl, don't get involved in this matter."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Mingzhi looked at Zhong Can and said indifferently, "I have my own plans for what to do next."
"You won't be able to help, so I won't tell you about it for now."
"Just go back and wait for news."
"Perhaps one day when you wake up from your cultivation, you'll hear the news of Duan Lingtian's death."
When they heard Xue Mingzhi's words, Zhong Can and his wife's eyes lit up.
"Thank you, Father-in-law!"
Zhong Can knelt on the ground and kowtowed to express his gratitude.
At this time, the girl beside him looked at Xue Mingzhi with a bright smile. "Thank you, father."
"You may leave."
Xue Mingzhi waved his hand and sent them off.
After receiving his reply, Zhong Can did not continue to stay. In the blink of an eye, he left Xue Mingzhi's cultivation place with his wife.
