"It's time to end this."
Duan Lingtian glanced at Huang Daniu who was still running around like a headless fly, and he smiled indifferently before flying out.
After a short moment, he arrived beside Huang Daniu.
Huang Daniu didn't notice him at all, and he was still punching the air. His punches were like a landslide, and they gushed out like an earth dragon leaving its hole as they swept out.
Bang!
Duan Lingtian casually slapped out with his palm, and it landed on Huang Daniu's back and blasted him flying.
At the same time that Huang Daniu flew out, his face flushed red, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. After that, he looked behind him and shouted loudly, "Who is it?! Who's helping Duan Lingtian?! "
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled as he looked at Huang Daniu who was looking at him.
In the illusory realm that Huang Daniu was in, there was no one around him.
When he saw Huang Daniu looking left and right as if he wanted to find out who attacked him, Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled, and then he withdrew his soul skill, Thousand Illusions, and the illusory realm was destroyed.
At the same time, he appeared before Huang Daniu.
"You … Why are you here?"
When Huang Daniu saw Duan Lingtian, it was as if he'd seen a ghost.
Subsequently, he hurriedly turned around to look behind him, but he noticed that there was no one there.
"Impossible! How can your speed be so fast?! Unless you're a Void Transformation Stage expert, otherwise, it's impossible for your speed to be so fast! "
Huang Daniu shook his head ceaselessly, and he didn't dare believe that everything before his eyes was real.
"Haha … Daniu, are you convinced now?"
Meanwhile, Chen Wei walked into the martial practice field with large strides and stood beside Duan Lingtian, and he grinned as he said to Huang Daniu, "Needless to say, your strength is really not bad …"
"But you must know that Duan Lingtian once killed eight bandits with extraordinary strength by himself! Amongst those eight bandits, there were three existences at the sixth level of the Void Interpretation Stage. "
Chen Wei spoke of Duan Lingtian's past accomplishments.
"What?!"
Huang Daniu's eyes narrowed, and his face was filled with shock. Then, he looked at Duan Lingtian and gasped, "You … Don't tell me you're really a Void Transformation powerhouse?"
"Do you think … that if I were a Void Transformation Stage expert, you would be able to withstand a single blow from me?"
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled. He felt that Huang Daniu was too naive.
To put it bluntly, he was simple-minded!
"Daniu, Duan Lingtian is a fifth level Void Interpretation martial artist just like you."
Chen Wei smiled.
"Impossible!"
Huang Daniu shook his head decisively. "It's impossible for him to be a fifth level Void Interpretation martial artist! If a fifth level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist wants to defeat me on the ground, then he must have comprehended sixth level Intermediate Earth Concept or has comprehended another ninth level Intermediate Concept. "
Huang Daniu was very confident in his own strength.
"Moreover, the speed at which he arrived here from that side was extremely fast. It was so fast that I was completely unable to react in time … In front of me, only a Void Transformation Stage expert is able to do this."
Huang Daniu spoke with extreme certainty.
Chen Wei was slightly speechless towards Huang Daniu's one-track mind.
But he still spoke of the truth. "Then what if I told you … Earlier, Duan Lingtian used an illusory realm to confuse you before injuring you?"
"In other words, the Duan Lingtian you've always been attacking isn't the real Duan Lingtian, but was created by an illusory realm … In the world in our eyes, you've always been attacking the air."
Chen Wei finished speaking in a single breath.
"Illusory realm?"
Huang Daniu frowned, and then he looked at Chen Wei with an expression that said 'don't try to deceive me'. "I didn't sense any fluctuation of an Inscription or Inscription Formation earlier … It's impossible for it to be an illusory realm!"
"Unless this Duan Lingtian is a person transformed from a demon, then he would be able to use Spiritual Force to construct an illusory realm."
Huang Daniu added.
"I've said it before, Duan Lingtian's true cultivation is only at the fifth level of the Void Interpretation Stage … I wonder if you've heard of a Variant?"
Chen Wei shook his head and directly spoke of Duan Lingtian's identity in the end.
"A Variant?!"
Huang Daniu frowned and muttered. "I seem to have heard someone mention it in the past … Wait, let me think."
Huang Daniu fell into deep thought as he spoke.
"What an idiot!"
Ye Xuan playfully stuck out her tongue and couldn't help but grunt.
Duan Lingtian shook his head, and then he walked out of the Martial Practice Grounds. Only now did he notice that Yang Ling had suddenly arrived, and he instantly greeted with a smile. "Elder Yang."
"Duan Lingtian, your cultivation is at the fifth level of the Void Interpretation Stage, yet the illusory realm you constructed with your innate ability is actually able to affect a sixth level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist?"
Yang Ling asked with a dumbstruck expression, and he obviously heard what Chen Wei said earlier.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded with a light smile. "Even though my cultivation is at the fifth level of the Void Interpretation Stage, but because I've consumed spirit fruits that improve the level of my soul, my Spiritual Force is higher than my cultivation."
"Haha …"
Yang Ling laughed loudly. "Looks like there'll be a good show to watch in the Battle of the Five Peaks this time."
"Battle of the Five Peaks?"
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Yang Ling. "What's that?"
"The Battle of the Five Peaks is a Martial Competition of the Five Peaks that our Five Element Sect is going to hold recently for the younger generation. However, it's different from an ordinary martial competition … In the Battle of the Five Peaks, apart from determining the individual strength rankings, each peak will also send out three of their strongest young talents to compete in team martial competitions with the other peaks.
"Finally, the specific rankings of the five peaks will be rearranged according to the individual's strength and team's strength rankings!"
Ke Zheng smiled as he explained.
As far as he was concerned.
The Battle of the Five Peaks this time was an opportunity for the Wood Peak, an opportunity to reclaim their glory.
"I've decided to go back with all of you to join in the fun."
Yang Ling said.
At the same time, his eyes stared fixedly at Duan Lingtian, and his eyes faintly flickered with anticipation. He hoped that Duan Lingtian would be able to obtain a good ranking for the Wood Peak in the Battle of the Five Peaks this time.
"I remember now!"
Suddenly, a voice that was like muffled thunder sounded out.
It was Huang Daniu who was in the martial practice grounds that had recovered from his shock, and he looked at Duan Lingtian as if he was looking at a monster as he exclaimed in surprise. "So you're a variant! In that case, the illusory realm you constructed earlier to affect me was your innate ability? "
Innate ability?
Duan Lingtian smiled and didn't admit nor deny it.
Some things might not be a bad thing when misunderstood by others.
However, when Duan Lingtian's smile entered into Huang Daniu's eyes, it was undoubtedly a tacit agreement.
"How old are you this year?"
Unknowingly, Huang Daniu had arrived by Duan Lingtian's side, and he stared at Duan Lingtian with a burning gaze. "Based on your appearance, you're only around the age of 25 … Your true age is probably over 30, right?"
"28."
Duan Lingtian shrugged as he spoke.
"What?!"
Huang Daniu was instantly shocked when he heard this. "You … You're actually younger than me? I'm already 31 years old. Monster! You're the real monster! "
As he finished speaking, Huang Daniu scolded with a grin.
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled.
He'd long since become accustomed to this.
But even though Duan Lingtian was accustomed to it, it didn't mean that Ye Xuan was accustomed to it as well. When she heard Huang Daniu scold Duan Lingtian, she was instantly displeased.
"You're the monster! Your entire family is monsters! "
Currently, Ye Xuan was completely like a female leopard protecting her cubs.
When they saw this scene, Yang Ling and Ke Zheng laughed heartily, and they were both amused by Ye Xuan.
Duan Lingtian and Chen Wei couldn't help but laugh as well, and they looked at Huang Daniu at the same time as they wanted to see how he would react.
Huang Daniu was speechless instead, and he had nothing to say.
As far as he was concerned.
Him scolding Duan Lingtian like that seemed to be another type of praise, right?
After all, he was extremely happy every time someone called him a monster in the past, because it indicated that he was outstanding and different from the masses.
"When do all of you intend to depart?"
Yang Ling looked at Ke Zheng and asked.
"Tomorrow."
Ke Zheng said.
At dawn the next day, the group of people departed from Settlement City and headed towards the Five Element Sect.
As soon as the five of them left the city, a middle aged man appeared from the shadows and returned to Settlement City. He headed straight towards a mansion that occupied a vast area and entered a back garden.
"Elder Tang."
The middle aged man stood outside the pavilion in the back garden and bowed respectfully to the old man inside.
"Have you found out their whereabouts?"
The old man that was playing chess with himself, the Earth Peak Elder, Tang Lin, slowly raised his head and asked with a low voice.
"No."
The middle aged man shook his head, and then he said, "But, Ke Zheng brought people back to the sect today … The two of them didn't return with Ke Zheng, so they've probably perished."
Whoosh!
Tang Lin abruptly stood up from his seat, and cold lights flickered within his eyes as he said with a low voice, "Wood Peak, how audacious! They actually dared to touch a disciple of my Earth Peak. "
The middle aged man was speechless in his heart when he saw Tang Lin flare up.
You've already sent people to the Wood Peak to be spies, yet you still won't allow them to clean up the sect?
Of course, he only dared think like this in his heart and didn't dare speak it out.
"Besides Chen Wei, was there another young man around the age of 25 that traveled with Ke Zheng?"
Tang Lin took a deep breath and stared at the middle aged man with a burning gaze as he asked.
"I didn't dare approach too close, so I didn't see his appearance clearly … Besides that, it wasn't just one person that traveled with Ke Zheng and Chen Wei, but four."
The middle aged man continued.
"Four?"
Tang Lin frowned. "Who else?"
"One of them is the person in charge of the Wood Peak stronghold in Settlement City, Elder Yang … As for the other three, all of them are unfamiliar faces, and one of them is comparatively tall."
The middle aged man spoke of everything he saw.
"That old fellow, Yang Ling?"
Tang Lin's face sank. "That old fellow actually left Settlement City and returned to the sect with Ke Zheng? Could it be that he thinks that merely that Duan Lingtian is able to make the Wood Peak turn the tables in the Battle of the Five Peaks this time? "
"Hmph! Yang Ling, Ke Zheng … I'll let all of you know that your Wood Peak has been busy for so long, yet in the end, all of you were only paving the way for our Earth Peak! "
Tang Lin grunted coldly as he muttered, and then his figure flashed out to vanish into thin air from the pergola in the rear garden.
"I'm returning to the sect … You take charge of the matters in Settlement City."
