"Hmph! If it wasn't for some people acting on their own, that group of bandits wouldn't have gone mad. "
"They're all Seven Star Sword Sect disciples, but why is the difference so great? Some people have no ability, yet like to show off … If it wasn't for that bandit leader having his cultivation crippled by Elder Feng Ping, would some people dare make a move against him? "
"Fortunately, none of our brothers were killed, otherwise … Hmph!"
…
The group of merchant guards discussed animatedly, and their intentions were clear.
Zhao Lei's face sank, as he naturally guessed that these guards were talking about him.
"Duan Lingtian, are you really only at the fourth level of the Nascent Soul Stage?"
On the other side, a voice transmission entered into Duan Lingtian's ears.
Duan Lingtian was able to discern that this was Elder Feng Ping's voice, and he instantly replied via voice transmission. "Yes."
Feng Ping's pupils constricted when he obtained Duan Lingtian's acknowledgment.
"How did you comprehend Wind Force? According to my knowledge, martial artists below the Void Prying Stage are at most able to comprehend the seed of Force, and it's impossible for them to comprehend true Force. "
Feng Ping's voice transmission sounded out once more, and it was filled with bewilderment and bewilderment.
As far as he was concerned.
Everything he said was the iron law of Cloud Continent, and he'd never heard of anyone being able to break it.
Duan Lingtian being able to break this iron law caused him to be extremely shocked.
"I don't know as well."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and replied via voice transmission. "I … comprehended as I comprehended."
Feng Ping had a dumbstruck expression.
What do you mean comprehended as you comprehended?
Saying it was equivalent to not saying anything!
But Feng Ping knew clearly that even if it was him, he wouldn't easily speak of a secret like this.
Duan Lingtian being unwilling to speak of it was pardonable.
The following journey could be considered to be peaceful.
After using almost a month of time, Duan Lingtian followed the Ancient River Trading Company's merchant group and finally arrived nearby their destination.
"We'll be there in another five or six days."
Feng Ping looked at Duan Lingtian and lightly smiled as he spoke.
After witnessing Duan Lingtian's shocking display of power, Francis' attitude towards Duan Lingtian had changed.
In Cloud Continent, the strong were respected.
Duan Lingtian might not be as strong as him now, but his talent could be said to be unparalleled.
With Duan Lingtian's talent, it would not be difficult for Duan Lingtian to catch up with him, or even surpass him in the future.
"Almost there?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up.
As for the change in Francis Ping's attitude, he naturally felt it.
In this world where the strong were respected, this was how it was. If you had the strength, you would be looked up to and respected by others.
On the other hand, in the eyes of others, they were like lowly grass and ants.
Seven Star Sword Sect, Megrez Peak.
Today, an uninvited guest arrived at the cultivation grounds of the Outer Court Elder, Zhao Lin, within a canyon that was filled with light.
"You are Elder Zhao Lin?"
The travel-worn young man bowed respectfully to Zhao Lin.
"You're … a member of the Ancient River Trading Company?"
Zhao Lin's gaze descended onto the symbol on the young man's clothes, and his brows raised. "Did my cousin brother send you here?"
"Cousin brother?"
The young man from the Ancient River Trading Company couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Zhao Lin.
"My cousin brother is called Zhao Yu."
Zhao Lin said.
"Exactly, exactly … It was Elder Zhao Yu who sent me here. Elder Zhao Lin, this is the letter Elder Zhao Yu asked me to send over one month ago. "
The young man from the Ancient River Trading Company withdrew a letter from his Spatial Ring and passed it over to Zhao Lin.
"Letter?"
Zhao Lin received the letter with slight bewilderment.
He was curious in his heart, why would his cousin brother who hadn't contacted him for a few years suddenly send him a letter.
His cousin brother was the grandson of his grandfather's elder brother, and was also the only person besides him amongst the Zhao Clan disciples of the same generation as him.
The Zhao Clan had already declined until now.
Apart from his grandfather, there were only his two cousins and their only sons left.
Zhao Lin opened the letter.
"Cousin Brother Zhao Lin, after not seeing you for a few years, I miss you and Grandfather … Today, an uninvited guest came to the Ancient River Trading Company's branch in the Ancient City of Everlast that I stayed behind, and he said he was an inner court disciple of the Seven Star Sword Sect."
"But his age is shocking, he's actually only 22 years old! His strength is even above Lei, and he's a fourth level Nascent Soul Stage martial artist … "
Zhao Lin's heartbeat sped up when he saw this, and his pupils constricted.
"Could it be …?"
Zhao Lin took a deep breath and continued reading.
"This person calls himself Duan Lingtian! I wonder if such a peerlessly talented disciple has appeared in the Seven Star Sword Sect in these past few years? Brother, please write back and tell me, so that I can confirm it. "
Zhao Lin finished reading in one go.
Suddenly.
"Haha … Hahahaha!"
After a short moment of silence, Zhao Lin burst into laughter, as if he'd encountered an extremely joyous matter.
"The heavens are helping me!"
Zhao Lin was overjoyed in his heart.
"Duan Lingtian, no wonder you vanished without a trace a month ago. So it turns out that you went to the Ancient City of Everlast … I'm afraid you never imagined that the External Affairs Elder of the Seven Star Sword Sect's branch in the Ancient River Trading Company's branch in the Ancient City of Everlast would be my cousin brother, right?"
When he thought up to here, Zhao Lin's mood surged, and he was unable to calm down for a long time.
Zhao Lin's eyes were suffused with dense cold lights. "Duan Ling Tian, there was a path to heaven, yet you refused to take it, and there was no door to hell, yet you barged in … This time, let me see how you die!"
"I'll write a letter right away, give it to Elder Zhao Yu."
Zhao Lin looked at the young man from the Ancient River Trading Company.
"Yes."
The latter replied respectfully.
Zhao Lin took out a brush and paper, and with a wave of his hand, a letter was completed in one go.
"You must personally hand this letter over to Elder Zhao Yu! These gold bills are my reward to you. "
Zhao Lin passed the letter over, and at the same time, he took out a stack of gold bills and passed it over to the young man from the Ancient River Trading Company.
"Don't worry Elder Zhao Lin, if the letter exists, then the person exists, if the letter is destroyed, then the person perishes!"
The latter vowed solemnly, and when he received the gold bills, he beamed with joy.
"Go!"
Zhao Lin waved his hand.
"Yes."
The latter turned around and left.
"Cousin Brother, the future of our Zhao Clan depends on you … If we're able to obtain the Muscle Meridian Rebirth Scroll in Duan Lingtian's possession, then our Zhao Clan will rise in strength!"
Zhao Lin's eyes flickered with a bright light.
When he found out that Duan Lingtian had gone to the Ancient City of Everlast, he wished for nothing more than to rush over himself …
But he knew clearly that if he left, he would surely leave behind traces of his tracks.
Once Duan Lingtian died outside, it was very likely that others would follow the traces of his tracks and trace it back to him.
This was something he wasn't willing to see happen.
"Cousin Brother's strength surpasses mine, I presume it isn't difficult to kill that Duan Lingtian and seize the Muscle Meridian Rebirth Scroll."
When he thought up to here, Zhao Lin's face revealed a smile.
Six days later.
Duan Lingtian's group had finally walked out of the boundless desert, and they'd only just entered the oasis when they could see a city standing in the distance.
"Elder Feng Ping, that's the destination of our trip?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Feng Ping who was beside him and asked curiously.
"Exactly."
Feng Ping nodded. "When we arrive at the city ahead, the merchant group will go put down the goods and exchange for another batch of goods … At that time, we'll return to the Ancient City of Everlast using the same route. During this period of time, we'll have time to have a proper meal. "
Duan Lingtian's gaze shone.
Along the way, for an entire month, they had not had a proper meal even though they ate the wind and drank the dew.
Now, they could finally eat a proper meal.
The merchant group entered the city.
The guard leader brought the merchant group to unload the goods. As for Duan Lingtian, Feng Ping, and the other three Seven Star Sword Sect disciples, they found a restaurant to eat.
The meal was calm and tranquil.
Even Zhao Lei didn't cause any trouble.
Actually, since Duan Lingtian exerted the strength of 800 ancient mammoths the last time, Zhao Lei was completely terrified and didn't dare be presumptuous before Duan Lingtian, and he was so well-behaved that it caused the other Seven Star Sword Sect inner court disciples to exclaim in admiration.
They all felt that Zhao Lei had changed.
After eating, Duan Lingtian's group once again gathered with the merchant group and left the city to return to the Ancient City of Everlast.
All along the way, besides cultivating, Duan Lingtian was still cultivating.
Time flew by.
Almost a month of time had almost passed.
On this day, Duan Lingtian awoke from his cultivation, and bright lights flickered within his eyes.
"Looks like you've improved."
Duan Lingtian had just awoken from his cultivation when Feng Ping's voice transmission entered into Duan Lingtian's ears in a timely manner.
Duan Lingtian smiled lightly.
Presently, his cultivation had already arrived at the critical point between the fourth level of the Nascent Soul Stage and the fifth level of the Nascent Soul Stage.
He only lacked a critical factor before he would be able to smoothly break through to the fifth level of the Nascent Soul Stage!
At that time, his strength would increase once more.
"Once I break through to the fifth level of the Nascent Soul Stage … Even if I encounter the Saber Young Master, Long Yun, in a head on battle, I don't have to fear the strength of his Saber Force Seed any longer! Even if his strength fluctuates to the peak along with the Saber Force Seed, I'll still be able to crush him head on! "
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart and was filled with confidence.
"Elder Feng Ping, how long more until we arrive at the Ancient City of Everlast?"
Duan Lingtian asked Feng Ping.
Feng Ping lightly smiled. "We ought to be able to arrive in another four or five days … Now, the people that Elder Zhao Yu and I sent to the Seven Star Sword Sect ought to have already returned. We'll be able to confirm your identity once we return. " “
Duan Lingtian nodded and continued to close his eyes and rest his mind.
At practically the exact same time, in the Ancient River Trading Company's branch in the Ancient City of Everlast.
"Elder Zhao Yu, this is the letter that Elder Zhao Lin replied to you."
The young man respectfully passed the sealed letter in his hand over to Zhao Yu.
"Okay. You can leave. "
Zhao Yu waved his hand and the young man withdrew.
Swish!
In next to no time, Zhao Yu opened the letter.
His gaze descended onto a paragraph of words at the front of the letter, and he was slightly shocked.
"That Duan Lingtian is really an inner court disciple of our Seven Star Sword Sect? Looks like it was indeed Lei who was too impulsive. "
Zhao Yu sighed and continued to read.
"He just entered the Seven Star Sword Sect for less than a year and killed the number one disciple in the outer court, Shi Hao, at the age of 20 and became the new number one disciple in the outer court?"
"One year later, he used a cultivation at the ninth level of the Origin Core Stage to kill the first level Nascent Soul Stage inner court disciple, Liu Shi Ge?"
"Not long ago, he defeated the Demonic Lotusblade Sect's Saber Young Master, Long Yun, and seized the supreme glory of first place for the Seven Star Sword Sect?"
Zhao Yu's breathing followed his gaze down and became even more hurried …
