Chapter 2970 - Ling Jue Yun

Chapter 2970: Ling Jue Yun
Chaos Divine Flame, you’re such a showoff!
the Chaos Divine Earth said indignantly,
That’s only because this boy has been constantly using you to refine pills and consequently, gained a deeper understanding of the fire element. T-that’s the only reason you’re able to help him comprehend the Fire Elemental Profundity in three hours!
It felt embarrassed since the Chaos Divine Flame’s words made his achievement of helping Duan Ling Tian comprehend the Earth Elemental Profundity overnight seemed like nothing. How could it not feel angry?
The Chaos Divine Flame replied nonchalantly,
All those factors don’t matter to me. What’s important is the result! If you want me to acknowledge you as my senior, then you should be better than me, at least. You can’t even help him comprehend the Fundamental Profundity as fast as I can… Do you think you’re worthy of being my senior?
Its tone grew increasingly disdainful toward the end of its sentence.

Y-you…
The Chaos Divine Earth was so angry that it was rendered speechless.

Old Fire, you’re so cruel. You’ve angered Little Earth so much that it has fallen into a deep slumber,
the usually-quiet Profound Divine Metal said in a gloating manner.
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian did not pay attention to the three elements that bickered like enemies. Instead, he was lost in his thoughts. ‘The Chaos Divine Flame is capable of helping me comprehend the Fire Elemental Profundity, the Fundamental Profundity of the fire element, in three days? Moreover, whenever I use the Chaos Divine Flame to refine pills, I’m actually gaining comprehension of the fire element? Doesn’t this mean that all I need to do is to obtain a fire-type King Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability to comprehend the Fire Elemental Profundity?’ His eyes lit up like the stars in the night sky when he thought about this. A fire burned in his heart; he could not wait to obtain a fire-type King Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability!
‘The Imperial auction will only start at night. Since I still have plenty of time, I’ll stroll around the Imperial Palace… Let’s start from the library,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.
It was still early in the morning when Duan Ling Tian left the room. After he greeted Liu Guang Lin, he left the courtyard with Liu Guang Lin in tow.
‘Jia Long must be in the midst of comprehending the wind-type King Grade Divine Ability… I should leave him to it.’ Duan Ling Tian briefly glanced at Huang Jia Long’s courtyard as he walked past it.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian and Liu Guang Lin saw a group of people leaving their courtyard in the Imperial Palace as well.

Master, those people are from the East Ming Nation. They’re here for the Golden Nematodes as well,
Liu Guang Lin said.

The East Ming Nation?
Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow.
The purpose of Duan Ling Tian’s visit to the capital of the Solitary Nation was to obtain the Golden Nematodes during the auction. Previously, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation had personally reached out to the Emperor of the Solitary Nation for the Golden Nematodes. However, because the Moran Nation and the East Ming Nation wanted the Golden Nematodes as well. For this reason, the Solitary Nation decided to put the Golden Nematodes up for auction since it was a fair method and could help them avoid offending the two nations that would inevitably fail to obtain the Golden Nematodes.
It did not take long before the group of people from the East Ming Nation noticed the duo as well.

These two men are from the Supporting Fall Nation!


Isn’t that purple-clad young man the genius sectless cultivator from the Supporting Fall Nation, Duan Ling Tian?


It must be him! I heard that the Supporting Fall Nation sent a group of five to attend the Imperial auction. Out of the five people, there are only two young men… One of them is Huang Jia Long, the Young Master of the City Governor’s estate in Passage City. Since I’ve met Huang Jia Long before, I can confirm this purple-clad young man isn’t Huang Jia Long.

As the people from the East Ming Nation whispered among themselves, they would occasionally look at one of the two young men walking in the lead. The young man wore a grey robe, and his eyes were as cold as ice. His expression was aloof, and he emitted a chilling aura with his sword hanging by his waist.
‘Duan Ling Tian?’ The grey-clad young man instinctively turned to look at Duan Ling Tian when he heard the conversation behind him. His eyes flashed as he looked at Duan Ling Tian pointedly. After probing Duan Ling Tian with his Divine Consciousness, he exclaimed inwardly, ‘It’s him!’

It’s him!
The silver-clad young men standing next to the grey-clad young man exclaimed as well,
There’s no doubt he’s Duan Ling Tian. He’s not even 100 years old, but he defeated Huang Jia Long with a single strike. Huang Jia Long is one of the strongest peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials, but Duan Ling Tian is only a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial! Rumors from the Supporting Fall Nation say that Duan Ling Tian didn’t even comprehend any power of the law to defeat Huang Jia Long!
His eyes were wide open, and a hint of fear could be seen in them. After a brief pause, he asked the grey-clad young man,
Brother Jue Yun, do you think that’s possible?

During the Southern Heaven Combat in the East Ming Nation, the silver-clad young man was defeated by the grey-clad young man. The grey-clad young man’s Celestial Origin Energy had turned into a sword after he had merged it with the power of the law. He had easily sent the silver-clad young man flying out of the battle ring with a single strike. Despite the grey-clad young man holding back his strength, the silver-clad young man’s injuries were so serious that it took him half a month to recuperate. Despite the grey-clad young man’s amazing feats, he was only a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial who was not even 100 years old. For all these reasons, from that day onward, the grey-clad young man was widely acknowledged as the strongest person among those below Celestial Dukes.

The world is filled with many great wonders… It’s possible for a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial to defeat a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial if neither of them uses the power of the law,
the grey-clad young man replied nonchalantly.
The grey-clad young man was none other than the genius sectless cultivator who had recently shot to fame during the Southern Heaven Combat in the East Ming Nation! He was Ling Jue Yun.

Brother Jue Yun, are you confident about defeating him if you have to fight him?
the silver-clad young man asked.

I can’t say since I don’t know much about him,
Ling Jue Yun lightly replied.
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, ‘This grey-clad young man must be the genius sectless cultivator from the East Ming Nation whom everyone has been talking about… He’s indeed extraordinary. I wonder if he’s a remarkable Celestial who has reincarnated. Otherwise, he must be extraordinarily talented…’ He could tell with a glance that it was true that Ling Jue Yun was not even 100 years old. As the saying went, ‘It takes one to know one’.
Soon after, Duan Ling Tian called out,
Let’s go, Guang Lin.
Then, he continued on his journey to the library in the Imperial Palace. The library was open to guests of the Imperial family. The guests would be given access to many books, Memory Celestial Talismans, and Floating Image Pearls. The Floating Image Pearls were old recordings of duels between powerhouses weaker than Celestial Kings. Even if there were recordings of duels between Celestial Kings, the Celestial Kings in the recordings were Celestial Kings who had not comprehended the power of the laws. The Floating Image Pearls that contained recordings of Celestial Kings who had comprehended the power of the laws were valuable in the Solitary Nation so they were not kept in the library.
…

Brother Jue Yun, do you want me to invite him over for a challenge on your behalf? If he loses, the Supporting Fall Nation has to withdraw from making a bid during the auction,
the silver-clad young man said as he narrowed his eyes.

What if I lose?
Ling Jue Yun asked lightly.

Lose?
The corners of the silver-clad young man’s mouth twitched. He did not expect someone as arrogant as Ling Jue Yun would utter such words.
Even the people behind the duo were stunned and dumbstruck by Ling Jue Yun’s words.

I, Ling Jue Yun, am a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Sword Celestial. I will admit defeat to whoever who’s capable of deflecting one sword attack from me!
These were the exact words Ling Jue Yun had said during the Southern Heaven Combat in the East Ming Nation.
How could the people from the East Ming Nation not be surprised by Ling Jue Yun’s words about the young man from the Supporting Fall Nation? Was he really the Ling Jue Yun, the arrogant Sword Celestial, they knew during the Southern Heaven Combat in the East Ming Nation?
