Never had Feng Wei imagined that for the sake of a Duan Lingtian, his Martial Uncle would actually be willing to take out an eighth level Fire Concept Fragment that he'd kept for many years.
At this moment, Feng Wei deeply felt the hatred his Martial Uncle had towards Duan Lingtian, and it was hatred that came from the bones.
"Don't worry Martial Uncle, I'll tell Yong 'er."
Feng Wei's eyes flashed, and he felt happy for the personal disciple he'd just taken. After all, eighth level Fire Concept Fragments weren't so common.
An eighth level Fire Concept Fragment came from a Void Transformation Stage powerhouse that had comprehended the eighth level Advance Fire Concept. This type of Void Transformation Stage powerhouse was usually an existence at the seventh level of the Void Transformation Stage or above.
If one wanted to obtain an eighth level Fire Concept Fragment, then one either had to wait for an existence like this to die or kill such an existence.
The rarity of an eighth level Fire Concept Fragment could be seen from this.
In next to no time, Feng Wei returned to the courtyard he lived in, and the personal disciple he'd just taken was placed in a room within the courtyard.
"Yong 'er!"
Feng Wei shouted out as soon as he entered the room.
"Master!"
There was a total of three rooms within the courtyard, and a person walked out from the room on the far left and looked respectfully and reverently at Feng Wei. It was precisely the Darming Dynasty's Crown Prince, Lu Yong.
Even though he, Lu Yong, was a high and mighty Crown Prince in the Darming Dynasty, this was the Skywolf Fort, and casually dispatching an elder with a high cultivation would be able to annihilate a formidable power of the Darming Dynasty in the Foreign Lands.
He didn't dare put on any airs in a power of the Foreign Lands like this.
"Haha … Yong 'er, come, Master has something to say to you."
Feng Wei called Lu Yong over and went straight to the point. "You ought to have seen how Duan Lingtian treated your Martial Ancestral Uncle today, right?"
"Yes."
Lu Yong nodded, and he couldn't help but be slightly shocked when he recalled the scene he saw in the outer fort not long ago.
Although he didn't wish for Duan Lingtian to acknowledge his Martial Granduncle as his master, because once Duan Lingtian acknowledged him as his master, his seniority would be lower than Duan Lingtian, and he would have to address Duan Lingtian as Martial Uncle.
However, he never thought that Duan Lingtian would actually be so bold. Not only did he directly reject his Martial Granduncle, but his words also left no room for negotiation.
"Master, what do you want to tell me?"
Lu Yong asked curiously.
Feng Wei didn't beat around the bush and directly spoke of what Ning Can had said to him. "… So long as you're able to kill Duan Lingtian during the later selections of the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties, then your Martial Ancestral Uncle will give you an eighth level Fire Concept Fragment."
An eighth level Concept of Fire fragment!
Lu Yong sucked in a breath of cold air as greed instantly suffused his eyes. However, this greed vanished in the blink of an eye, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
"Hmm?"
From the beginning until the end, Feng Wei who'd noticed the changes in Lu Yong's expression couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Lu Yong reveal a bitter smile.
"Master."
Lu Yong sighed. "Actually, when we were in the Illusory Purgatory, I was almost able to kill Duan Lingtian … But unfortunately, right when he was about to die at my hands, the Illusory Purgatory teleported us out."
"His luck is so good?"
The corners of Feng Wei's mouth twitched as he felt disbelief towards Duan Lingtian's luck, and then he said, "Don't worry, you'll have another chance later on."
"Later on?"
Lu Yong shook his head. "Master, there's something you don't know … That Duan Lingtian isn't a simple figure. I heard from Zi Shang that came from the Darkhan Dynasty along with him … "
Subsequently, Lu Yong spoke of everything Zi Shang had told him about Duan Lingtian's illusory realm soul skill.
"Illusory realm soul skill? Soul skill? "
Feng Wei's pupils constricted as he revealed an astonished expression. "Are you sure it's a soul skill? Besides those variant demon beasts that possess extraordinary natural talent, how could there possibly be a human martial artist capable of executing a Spiritual Force ability that's similar to a soul skill before attaining the realm of Emperor Wu … Impossible! Absolutely impossible! "
As the Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort, Feng Wei had an extremely good understanding of soul skills, and he knew that it was the ability of some variant demon beasts that possessed extraordinary natural talent.
Even though human martial artists were capable of executing Spiritual Force abilities that were similar to soul skills, yet they had to break through to the realm of Emperor Wu before they could execute it.
"When I heard Zi Shang speak of this matter, it didn't seem to be false …"
Lu Yong continued.
Even now, when he recalled the strand of black colored flame brand that appeared between Zi Shang's brows and the strength that suddenly erupted out and completely crushed him, he still couldn't help but feel a slight lingering fear in his heart.
At that time, if Zi Shang really wanted to take his life, then he would die for sure!
So he felt that Zi Shang had utterly no need to deceive him.
"That Zi Shang you spoke of is a member of the Darkhan Dynasty? You knew him from before? "
Feng Wei frowned as he asked.
"I got to know him in the Illusory Purgatory."
Lu Yong laughed bitterly.
"Illusory Purgatory? You didn't kill him? "
Feng Wei was stunned.
"Kill him?"
Lu Yong was stunned, and then he laughed bitterly. "Master, I want to kill him, but the problem is that I'm utterly not a match for him …"
"What?! You're not a match for him? "
Feng Wei was slightly shocked. "Then there's someone in the Darkhan Dynasty that's stronger than you?"
Lu Yong nodded, and then he asked. "Right, Master, I have something to ask you … Do you know why a black colored flame brand would appear between a person's brows? Moreover, after the black colored flame brand appears, the person's strength would instantly increase greatly!?"
"Black colored flame brand?"
Feng Wei frowned as he asked. "What's that?"
Lu Yong continued. "Master, Zi Shang was originally only a first level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist, and he wasn't a match for me … But when a strand of black colored flame brand appeared between his brows, he instantly possessed a strength comparable to a fifth level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist, and he caused me to be unable to fight back in front of him."
"A first level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist instantly possessed a strength at the fifth level of the Void Interpretation Stage? A black colored flame brand appeared between his brows? "
Feng Wei's brows knit together even more tightly, and then he guessed. "Could it be some sort of secret technique?"
"I don't know about that."
Lu Yong shook his head.
"Looks like there's a need for me to meet Zi Shang … You make a trip and bring him here."
Feng Wei spoke to Lu Yong.
"Yes."
Lu Yong replied and left.
In a restaurant near Skywolf Fort, Duan Lingtian and the others were sitting around a table and enjoying fine wine and delicacies. After being hungry for an entire day, all of them buried their heads in eating and drinking.
In next to no time, the fine wine and delicacies on the table were completely swept away.
After they were full and Duan Lingtian paid the bill, the group left the restaurant and soared into the sky with the intention of returning to Skywolf Fort.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Sword 13 and Saber 5's figures stopped moving, and they turned around to glance at the side of the restaurant. After they noticed there was nothing unusual there, the two of them continued forward.
After Duan Lingtian and the others left, an aged figure walked out from the shadows at the place Sword 13 and Saber 5 had looked at earlier.
"Duan Lingtian, consider yourself lucky! I don't believe that Sword 13 will be able to follow by your side forever … "
The old man's eyes emitted a gaze of hatred as he gnashed his teeth as he spoke.
The old man was precisely the Dongguo Clan's Patriarch, Dongguo Lei.
For the sake of finding an opportunity to kill Duan Lingtian with a single strike, he'd always been lying in ambush outside Skywolf Fort, waiting for an opportunity. Even though he'd seen Duan Lingtian arrive today, he had no way to make a move against Duan Lingtian.
The Blade Sect's expert, Sword 13, had always been by Duan Lingtian's side, and he was utterly unable to find an opportunity to make a move.
"Could it be Dongguo Lei?"
Even though the movements of Sword 13 and Saber 5 were short, it was still noticed by Duan Lingtian who possessed an extremely strong ability of observation, and he couldn't help but guess.
In the Ancient Desert City, the person that wanted to take his life the most was undoubtedly the Dongguo Clan's Patriarch, Dongguo Lei.
Now, there seemed to be someone watching them from the shadows, and according to his inference, that person was most probably Dongguo Lei!
"It's easy to dodge an open attack, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow … If Dongguo Lei doesn't die, then he'll be a great calamity in the end."
On the way back, Duan Lingtian pondered in his heart.
But Dongguo Lei was a sixth level Void Transformation Stage expert after all, and if he wanted to kill Dongguo Lei, then there was only a single path he could take.
That was to utilize the talisman his deadbeat father left behind for him!
But there were only two talismans left now, and if it wasn't necessary, he was really unwilling to utilize them.
"Nevermind … I won't take the initiative to look for him. If he really comes looking for me, then even if I have to risk using a talisman, I'll still kill him so as to avoid future troubles!"
Duan Lingtian decided in his heart.
"Eh, isn't that Lu Yong?"
Suddenly, Zhang Shou Yong's voice entered into Duan Lingtian's ears, and it caused Duan Lingtian to be unable to refrain from following along Zhang Shou Yong's gaze to look ahead, and he saw Lu Yong heading towards a pavilion with a glance.
"Isn't that the pavilion Zi Shang resides in?"
Feng Tianwu's beautiful brows frowned slightly.
After a short moment, Duan Lingtian's group saw Lu Yong stand in the sky outside a pavilion for a while before a figure shot out from within the pavilion to converge with Lu Yong.
"Zi Shang!"
Duan Lingtian's brows raised as his eyes flickered with an extremely cold light.
If it wasn't for this being the Skywolf Fort that prohibited him from casually attacking, otherwise, he would wish for nothing more than to charge over and kill Zi Shang right now!
"Lu Yong has brought Zi Shang to the inner fort … What do they want to do?"
Zhang Shou Yong frowned when he saw Lu Yong and Zi Shang swiftly entering the inner fort side by side, and he muttered to himself with slight worry.
As far as he was concerned, nothing good would happen when these two fellows were gathered together.
"Lu Yong, do you know why Vice Fort Master Feng is looking for me?"
After they entered the inner fort, Zi Shang asked Lu Yong.
"It's mainly to ask you about Duan Lingtian's illusory realm soul skill … That Martial Ancestral Uncle of mine wants me to kill Duan Lingtian during the later selections of the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties, and he didn't hesitate to pay an eighth level Fire Concept Fragment for this."
Lu Yong said.
"Eighth level Fire Concept Fragment?"
Zi Shang's eyes lit up, and a sheen of greed faintly flickered within them, yet it quickly vanished. "What a pity …"
"Zi Shang, actually, there's something I've always been curious about … Exactly what did that Duan Lingtian rely on to counter you? After all, with your strength after the flame brand appeared between your brows, you're entirely capable of killing him in an instant! "
