When Duan Ling Tian, Huan’er, and Tie Tai He had left the Cross Region and entered the General Region, news of the Blissful Sect being annihilated was verified by more and more people.
As soon as the trio arrived in the General Region, Tie Tai He looked at Duan Ling Tian and said,
Master Duan, we’ve arrived in the General Region… However, I don’t know the exact location of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect’s estate since I’ve never been there before. My plan is to look for a city or a friendly sect we can lodge in while I look for the exact location of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect’s estate. We’ll leave as soon as I find out the exact location of the sect.

Duan Ling Tian nodded slightly and calmly replied,
Elder Tie, I’ll leave this matter entirely up to you.

As soon as they arrived in the General Region, Duan Ling Tian had begun to feel restless.
‘I wonder if I’ll meet her when we go to the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect…’ Duan Ling Tian did not plan to insist on meeting Murong Bing during this trip to the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect unless she was willing to meet him. After all, for now, he had no plans of taking Murong Bing away from the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect to the central area.

Brother Ling Tian.
Huan’er could sense Duan Ling Tian’s restlessness even though he was behaving as usual. She reached out to hold his hand and gently squeezed it in hopes of calming him down.

Huan’er, I’m fine,
Duan Ling Tian said with a faint smile on his face as he stroked the back of her hand with his fingers. His eyes were filled with affection as he looked at her.
…
At the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect’s estate.
After the deaths of Zhou Ming, Bai Wu Ji, and Bai Yu Xuan, the Old Ancestor, the Sect Leader, and the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect respectively, a gloomy atmosphere loomed over the sect’s estate. Since that fateful day, the sect had not returned to its lively state from before.
The members of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect were morose, devastated by the deaths of crucial members of the sect.
Elder Qi seemed to be the only one who was in a good mood.
However, on this day, the Profound Heaven Sect seemed to turn lively again when they received certain news. The news turned the entire sect upside down.

Not only did Duan Ling Tian, the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, kill Li Ping, a One Basic Celestial King, but he also destroyed the Blissful Sect?


Is it true that Old Ancestor Li Ping of the Blissful Sect had broken through and became a Celestial King prior to his death?


Many people have verified it to be true…

Similarly, the high-ranking officials of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect were shocked as well when they heard the news. However, their shock was replaced with relief soon after.

Heavens! Duan Ling Tian is capable of killing a One Basic Celestial King?


In comparison, doesn’t it seem like Duan Ling Tian was very lenient toward our Profound Heaven Celestial Sect?


Yes…


Since he’s capable of killing a One Basic Celestial King, it’d be easy for him to destroy our sect. Thank the heavens he didn’t do so even after everything Bai Yu Xuan had done.

The two remaining two Old Ancestors of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect were no exception and were equally shocked even though they had suspected this.

Duan Ling Tian killed Li Ping after he became a Celestial King?


Indeed, he’s not just a One Basic Celestial King!

Based on the strength Duan Ling Tian displayed on that fateful day, they knew he was stronger than an ordinary Celestial King. As Ten Directions Celestial Dukes, they should still be able to vaguely see his movements if he was a One Basic Celestial King. However, they could not catch his movements at all at that time. Therefore, they were rather certain he was stronger than a One Basic Celestial King. Now that the Blissful Sect’s destruction confirmed their suspicions, they could not help but heave a big sigh of relief that Duan Ling Tian did not destroy the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.

From today onward, the members of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect are strictly prohibited from finding fault with the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. Be extra courteous when you encounter members of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect! This is an order!

In fear of Duan Ling Tian’s formidable strength, the two old ancestors did not waste any time in passing down their order to the members of their sect.
All of the members of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect did not object to the order and found it reasonable. Even without the order, they still would not dare to offend the people from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
…
Duan Ling Tian was, naturally, unaware of the situation in the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect. All he knew was news about the destruction of the Blissful Sect had spread like a wildfire shortly before he left the Cross Region.
‘Everyone should’ve heard about the annihilation of the Blissful Sect by now, right? The quasi Celestial Kings in the Cross Region should’ve also heard about it… ‘ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he arrived at the outer area of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect’s estate.
…
Indeed, Duan Ling Tian was right. Half a month ago, the quasi Celestial Kings of the Cross Region’s Blissful Sect had heard about the destruction of their sect.

Li Ping had become a Celestial King, but he was still killed?


The Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect possesses such formidable strength even though he hasn’t even reached the age of 100?


Who is he? How’s it possible that he possesses such terrifying strength at such a young age?

The three quasi Celestial Kings of the Blissful Sect were furious and devastated when they heard about the Blissful Sect’s destruction. They were eager to come out from seclusion to avenge their descendants and disciples who were sacrificed in that ordeal. However, when they found out Li Ping, the Old Ancestor of the Blissful Sect, was killed even after becoming a Celestial King, they dismissed the idea of revenge. They did not even dare to think about stepping forward since they risked getting killed by Duan Ling Tian. They knew even if they banded together, they would not be able to survive more than 100 moves from a One Basic Celestial King. They knew this very well since they were once One Basic Celestial Kings as well. Therefore, they knew without a doubt how easy it would be for Duan Ling Tian to kill them.

Senior uncle, are we just going to sit back and do nothing? Due to the limit on our innate talent, we decided to stay in the borderlands to protect our sect. Is there nothing we can do now that our sect has been annihilated? I feel unreconciled with the fate of our sect… I just can’t accept it…
a middle-aged quasi Celestial King of the Blissful Sect said to an old man.
The old man shook his head and said with a bitter smile on his face,
Do you think I can accept it? I know Li Ping was the disciple whom you’re most proud of, and you want to avenge him. However, Duan Ling Tian killed Li Ping even though Li Ping had become a Celestial King. Do you think you stand a chance against Duan Ling Tian?

Another old man chimed in at this moment,
Perhaps, it’s time for us to leave the borderlands. We didn’t leave the borderlands due to our limited innate talent and decided to protect the sect instead. Inevitably, our cultivation bases had dropped from that of a One Basic Celestial King to that of a Ten Directions Celestial Duke… Unless we’re able to obtain rare medicinal herbs or rare Celestial Pills to eliminate the side effects of retrogradation, we won’t be able to improve our cultivation bases for the rest of our lives! Now that the sect’s gone, it’s meaningless for us to remain in the borderland… Let’s head to the central area. We might find rare medicinal herbs or Celestial Pills there to help us. This is the only chance we have to grow stronger.

In the end, the three quasi Celestial Kings of the Blissful Sect decided it was best for them to leave the borderlands for the central area. At this moment, they regretted their decision to stay back in the borderlands. All these years, they had been protecting the Blissful Sect, but in just a day, all their efforts had gone to waste. For this reason, the trio hated Duan Ling Tian to the core. Alas, they could not seek revenge since they knew they were no match for Duan Ling Tian.
…
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian was oblivious to the fact that the three quasi Celestial Kings of the Blissful Sect had left the borderlands for the central area. He would never expect that, in the future, he would meet them in the central area.
Tie Tai He looked at an area that was shrouded in fog and said to Duan Ling Tian at this moment,
Master Duan, the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect is up ahead… Should we announce our arrival or should we just enter unannounced?
