"That's right! The most unlucky one is still that Skywolf Fort!"
"Twenty disciples from Skywolf Fort came. First, there was an unlucky guy who overestimated himself and launched a sneak attack on Senior Brother Ling Tian, causing him to lose his footing and fall into the bottomless abyss. There was no way he could survive … The remaining nineteen disciples were also killed because they coveted the treasure in Senior Brother Ling Tian's hand!"
"If the five Vice Fort Masters of Skywolf Fort knew about this, I'm afraid they would be so angry that they would vomit three liters of blood!"
"Of course! A total of twenty people from Skywolf Fort came, and they were all killed before they even entered the Emperor Wu's Secret Treasure … If they knew about this, they would definitely be pissed to death! "
…
The group of Five Element Sect's disciples discussed animatedly with each other.
When they looked at the purple-clad young man who was slowly descending after putting away the stone tablet with a missing corner, all of their eyes were filled with reverence.
"Senior Brother Ling Tian is too strong!"
"That's right … Even though I have confidence in him, when I saw him being surrounded by forty-eight young powerhouses, I still couldn't help but break out in cold sweat for him."
"Me too. However, I didn't expect that Senior Brother Ling Tian would only use one sword to kill more than half of the forty-eight young powerhouses. Even though the remaining half didn't die, they were all crippled and no longer had the strength to fight. "
"I've decided! This time, I'll follow Senior Brother Ling Tian in this trip to the Emperor Wu's Secret Treasure … Senior Brother Ling Tian will eat the meat, and I'll follow him. I only need to drink the soup. "
"You're pretty smart, kid!"
…
Duan Lingtian had just put away the Devilseal Tablet and landed beside Feng Tianwu, Huang Daniu, Su Li, and Zhang Shou Yong when he heard these words. He could not help but smile wryly.
The group of Blade Sect's disciples stood quietly at the side. Their eyes were also filled with reverence when they looked at Duan Lingtian.
"Duan Lingtian … Could it be that I'm destined to be stepped on by you forever and never be able to surpass you?"
The gaze of a Saber Gate disciple landed on Duan Lingtian with a complicated expression.
It was precisely Long Yun!
Long Yun, the Saber Young Master that was one of the five great young masters of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, had taken the Vice Sect Master of the Saber Sect, Saber 5, as his master by chance, and he was able to advance by leaps and bounds in his path of cultivation.
Later on, he even became eminent in the Genius Competition of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom and competed with the young experts of the Empires and Dynasties all along the way to obtain the qualifications to participate in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties.
Presently, he had already followed Saber 5 back to the House of Sabers in the Blade Sect and had officially become a disciple of the House of Sabers.
This time, he was one of the twenty young disciples from Blade Sect who entered Emperor Wu's secret treasure.
"Who would have imagined that the young man that revealed his extraordinary talent during the Martial Competition of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom's five great sects a few years ago would have already grown to such an extent."
Long Yun sighed and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart.
"Let's go."
When he saw that everyone's eyes were still on him, Duan Lingtian smiled faintly and called out to them. Then, he took the lead and walked down the stone stairs at the side of the high platform.
The moment Duan Lingtian made his move, Feng Tianwu followed closely behind him.
Behind them were Huang Daniu, Su Li, and Zhang Shou Yong.
Instantly, the group of Five Element Sect and Blade Sect's disciples followed one by one.
The Five Element Sect's disciples were led by Duan Lingtian.
The Blade Sect's disciples were led by Feng Tianwu.
The two brothers, Nangong Chen and Nangong Yi, followed behind. Their eyes were filled with a complicated expression as they looked at the purple-clad young man who was the leader.
Once upon a time, the two brothers were the most dazzling young disciples of the Five Element Sect.
However, ever since Duan Lingtian appeared, he had snatched away all the glory that originally belonged to them.
"If we don't work hard, I'm afraid we'll never be able to surpass him in this lifetime."
Nangong Yi smiled wryly.
Although Duan Lingtian had snatched away the glory that originally belonged to him, he did not feel any dissatisfaction toward Duan Lingtian because of this.
This was because Duan Lingtian had used his own strength to snatch away his glory. He did not use any underhanded means.
Perhaps, he had lost.
However, he had lost wholeheartedly!
In his opinion, if he wanted to reclaim his glory, he would have to surpass Duan Lingtian. At that time, the glory that originally belonged to him would naturally return as well.
"I will surpass him."
Nangong Chen was still as taciturn as before. He was a man of few words. However, there was a hint of determination in his tone. His eyes gleamed with a terrifying light.
It was apparent that the two brothers, Nangong Chen and Nangong Yi, felt a great pressure because of Duan Lingtian's sudden rise.
This pressure was something that they had never encountered before.
At this moment, their Martial Dao Heart had been tempered to be even purer. At the same time, they had a common goal.
They wanted to surpass Duan Lingtian!
"Between the two of us … Whoever surpasses him first will be the big brother in the future! You don't have any objections, right? "
Nangong Yi looked at Nangong Chen and raised an eyebrow. He wanted to make a bet with Nangong Chen.
"Then, you'll have to wait to call me big brother."
Nangong Chen's expression was cold as he said coolly.
"Just you wait!"
Nangong Yi muttered as his eyes gleamed.
Currently, he was not as strong as Nangong Chen. Naturally, he knew this very well.
The reason he made such a bet with Nangong Chen was to motivate himself to surpass Duan Lingtian head-on!
Where would the motivation come from if there was no pressure?
Naturally, Duan Lingtian was unaware of what had happened between the two brothers. He also did not know that Nangong Chen and Nangong Yi were using him as a benchmark to surpass their goal.
"It's getting darker."
Duan Lingtian and Feng Tianwu led the way as they led the group of Five Element Sect and Blade Sect's disciples down the stone staircase.
In front of them, the figures of the Empyrean Temple's disciples led by Xuan Bei and the two Sun Moon Sect's disciples gradually disappeared before their eyes, leaving behind only darkness.
At some point in time, flames rose up. It was Feng Tian Wu's body that rose explosively, illuminating the surroundings.
However, there was a limit to the illumination.
However, after the flames on Feng Tianwu's body lit up the surroundings, a ball of flames also rose from the group of Empyrean Temple's disciples. It was obvious that they were inspired by Feng Tianwu.
After a while, a ball of flames also rose in front of the group of Empyrean Temple's disciples and the two Sun Moon Sect's disciples.
That was where the group of Emotion Severing Sect, led by Zhang Yan, was.
With the Emotion Severing Sect, Empyrean Temple, and Sun Moon Sect's disciples leading the way, the Five Element Sect and Blade Sect's disciples could not help but heave a sigh of relief as they followed behind at a moderate pace.
"How long is this stone staircase?"
An hour later, the stone staircase was still the same. They still did not reach the end. Duan Lingtian could not help but narrow his eyes. A hint of doubt could be seen on his face.
"The Emotion Severing Sect's people are turning!"
One of the Five Element Sect's disciples exclaimed, waking Duan Lingtian up with a start.
When Duan Lingtian heard it, he lifted his head and looked over. However, he noticed that the ball of flames in front of him was moving to the left. As for what was going on, it was impossible for him to see it clearly because they were too far away.
After a while, the Emotion Severing Sect's people moved to the bottom left of Duan Lingtian and the others' line of sight.
After a while, the group of Empyrean Temple's disciples and the two Sun Moon Sect's disciples also turned to the left and followed them.
As they moved closer, Duan Lingtian could see the end of the stone staircase through the flames that rose from Feng Tianwu's body.
Of course, it was only the end of the stone staircase in this direction.
The stone staircase in front of them suddenly turned and led to the bottom left, opening up a new unknown path.
"Don't tell me there's no end to this stone staircase?"
Duan Lingtian and the others turned to the left and continued to walk down. Huang Daniu could not help but frown. "We've been walking for more than an hour … Eh? They're speeding up!"
Before Huang Daniu could finish his sentence, he noticed that the ball of flames from the Emotion Severing Sect's people had suddenly sped up and flew forward.
The Empyrean Temple's flames also sped up.
"Follow them!"
Duan Lingtian raised his eyebrows. He called out to the others and flew after them.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
The Five Element Sect's and Blade Sect's disciples immediately followed them.
On top of the magnificent door that led to the exit of Emperor Wu's secret treasure, the upper echelons of the six major forces stood outside a layer of gray light shield. Their eyes were fixed on the gray light shield, trying to see through it and see what was going on inside.
Early on when Duan Lingtian was the first to pass through the gray light shield and arrive at the high platform, the gray light shield had become even darker, causing the people outside to be unable to see the situation inside clearly.
So after Duan Lingtian entered, the people outside were completely unaware of what had happened inside.
"Sword 13, Saber 5 … I originally thought that Duan Lingtian would join your Blade Sect, yet I never imagined that he would join the Five Element Sect in the end."
The Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort, Ning Can, looked at the two middle aged men nearby, and a wisp of a ridiculing smile appeared on his face.
Saber 5's face sank when he heard Ning Can, and he said angrily, "Ning Can, you still have the nerve to say that? If it wasn't for your Skywolf Fort interfering that day … How could Duan Lingtian have suddenly gone missing? "
Sword 13's expression was extremely unsightly as well.
Ning Can's words were undoubtedly rubbing salt on the wounds of their Blade Sect.
If it wasn't for the Skywolf Fort interfering that day with the intention of taking away Duan Lingtian, how could the subsequent events have occurred? How could Duan Lingtian have gone missing?
"Hmph! All of you listen up … Once the group of little fellows come out from Emperor Wu's Secret Treasure, us two old fellows will have to make a trip to your Skywolf Fort and ask Azure Wolf to give us an explanation! "
Meanwhile, the Sect Master of the Blade Sect grunted coldly, and his gaze that was like a blade flashed past the five Vice Fort Masters of Skywolf Fort.
"If Green Wolf can't give us a satisfactory explanation … I'm going to have to move my old bones a little."
The Sect Master of the Sword Sect spoke with a low voice.
They were already aware of the incident from a few months ago.
But they didn't take it to heart at that time.
As far as they were concerned at that time, there was utterly no need for them to shed all pretenses with the Skywolf Fort for a quasi Sword Sect disciple that hadn't even joined the sect.
But never had they imagined that it was this quasi Sword Sect disciple that they didn't take seriously that possessed natural talent and comprehension ability that shocked even them.
He wasn't even 30 years old, yet he killed a Ninth Level Void Interpretation martial artist who used a grade two spirit weapon and had comprehended ninth level Void Interpretation Concept with just a punch!
