A Six Combos Celestial King?!
Sun Liang Peng’s expression changed drastically upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s reply.
A Six Combos Celestial King assassin from the Blood Skull Gang was not like ordinary Six Combos Celestial Kings. The numbers of profundities they comprehended were higher than most Six Combos Celestial Kings in the Profound Nether Mansion’s territories.
The assassin is a Six Combos Celestial King?
At this moment, another voice rang out from the periphery of the valley. Following that, a huge figure that almost covered the sky appeared.
Duan Ling Tian saw a green flying beast that looked like a goshawk. In just a moment, the green flying beast had turned into a young man dressed in green robes.
It did not take long before the green-clad young man arrived next to Duan Ling Tian and Sun Liang Peng.
Duan Ling Tian, this is my second brother, Qing Hong.
Sun Liang Peng introduced the green-clad young man to Duan Ling Tian as soon as the green-clad young man arrived.
Although Qing Hong had been tailing Duan Ling Tian as soon as Duan Ling Tian left the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate, Duan Ling Tian had yet to meet Qing Hong face-to-face prior to this. This was their first meeting.
Even without Sun Liang Peng’s introductions, Duan Ling Tian would have been able to guess the identity of the green-clad young man. He bowed and thanked Qing Hong.
Thank you for your protection along the way, Senior Qing Hong.
I didn’t expect him to lead you to a one-time Transportation Formation. I was careless. Fortunately, you’re fine. Otherwise, I won’t be able to explain myself to my brother.
Qing Hong said tonelessly despite his words. It was only natural since he was not familiar with Duan Ling Tian. He had only protected Duan Ling Tian due to his brother’s directive. Otherwise, he would not care about Duan Ling Tian’s life or death.
Naturally, Duan Ling Tian was aware of this as well. Therefore, he no longer paid any attention to Qing Hong after he thanked Qing Hong.
The Blood Skull Gang’s assassin should have comprehended the law of wind, right?
Qing Hong asked Duan Ling Tian as he studied the canyon that was in ruins. He had also mastered the law of wind, therefore, it was not difficult for him to tell that damages in the canyon were caused by the law of wind.
Yes.
Duan Ling Tian nodded.
A Blood Skull Gang’s Six Combos Celestial King who comprehended the law of wind… Usually, someone like him would have comprehended five profundities from the law of wind, including the law of wind’s Fundamental Profundity, the Wind Elemental Profundity,
Sun Liang Peng speculated out loud. Based on his knowledge, Six Combos Celestial King assassins in top assassin organizations in the Southern Heaven Territory like the Blood Skull Gang would have at least comprehended five profundities of a law.
Five profundities?
Duan Ling Tian laughed bitterly. Sun Liang Peng severely underestimated this assassin from the Blood Skull Gang whom he had just killed. Including the law of wind’s Wind Elemental Profundity, the assassin had comprehended six profundities from the law of wind.
Duan Ling Tian was about to correct Sun Liang Peng when Qing Hong spoke up first.
It’s more than that… Based on the damages on the scene, I’d say the Blood Skull Gang’s assassin had comprehended six profundities from the law of wind, including the Wind Elemental Profundity.
Upon hearing Qing Hong’s words, Duan Ling Tian could not help but turn to look at Qing Hong. Qing Hong was absolutely right. He felt a chill run up his spine when he saw the confident expression on Qing Hong’s face. Qing Hong was not even here to witness the fight, but he could pinpoint with accuracy the numbers of profundities the assassin had comprehended.
Brother, are you sure?
Sun Liang Peng was thoroughly shocked when he heard Qing Hong’s words.
You know how rare it is for a Six Combos Celestial King, whether he’s an assassin from the Blood Skull Gang or not, to be able to comprehend six profundities from a law!
I’m certain.
Qing Hong’s gaze swept over the destroyed valley again.
Brother, look at what is left behind from the fight… That… That is left behind by the law of wind’s Wind Blade Profundity. That one… That is a mark left behind by the law of wind’s Slicing Profundity. Moreover, judging from the damage these profundities caused, he must have comprehended the Wind Gathering Profundity as well and possessed a purely offensive King Grade Celestial Weapon that had been nurtured by a Celestial Lord!
He pointed out the profundities from the law of wind he was sure the assassin had mastered before he looked at Duan Ling Tian and asked,
Am I right?
Yes.
Duan Ling Tian nodded calmly. Inwardly, he was truly shocked by Qing Hong’s accuracy.
Sun Liang Peng gasped. Soon after, he looked at Duan Ling Tian with a complicated and curious gaze as he asked,
The assassin was a Six Combos Celestial King who had comprehended six profundities from the law of wind… Duan Ling Tian, how did you manage to kill him? Even if you have the cultivation base of a Ten Directions Celestial King from your consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, you have only comprehended two profundities from the law of earth, right?
It was only natural that Sun Liang Peng was confused. A Six Combos Celestial King who had comprehended six profundities from a law of wind could easily kill a Ten Directions Celestial King who had merely comprehended two profundities from a law. The difference between the strength was almost four stages.
A Ten Directions Celestial King had to comprehend, at least, four profundities from a law to be a match for a Six Combos Celestial King who had comprehended six profundities from a law.
How could Duan Ling Tian who had merely comprehended two profundities from a law be a match for the assassin even if he had the cultivation base of a Ten Directions Celestial King?
Perhaps, Duan Ling Tian had used a Soul Attack. After all, profundities could be used along with Soul Attacks. However, no matter what, Duan Ling Tian who had just comprehended two profundities from the law of earth should not be a match for the Blood Skull Gang’s assassin who had comprehended six profundities from the law of wind.
Duan Ling Tian was already prepared for this question. An apologetic expression appeared on his face as he said,
Sect leader… In truth, the law of earth isn’t my strongest suit. My comprehension of the law of fire is higher than that of the law of earth. I have comprehended four profundities from the law of fire. Coupled with that, I had to go all out and unleashed all my strength from the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon before I could kill him. Even then, I’m severely injured. Even with medicinal pills, it’d take me two to three months, at least, to recover.
He sighed after he finished speaking.
Duan Ling Tian had already prepared to tell Sun Liang Peng that he had comprehended four profundities from the law of fire when he had, in fact, only comprehended two profundities from the law of fire. After all, if Sun Liang Peng knew the truth, it would not take long before Sun Liang Peng suspected he had other treasures like Royal Grade Celestial Weapons or there were still uses left in his consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapons.
In fact, when Duan Ling Tian discovered the full extent of the assassin’s strength earlier, he had briefly considered using the last of the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon. At that time, for a brief period, his strength would exceed that of an ordinary Celestial Lord. With that, it would not be difficult for him to escape unscathed from the assassin even if he could not kill the assassin. However, in the end, he dismissed that idea.
Sun Liang Peng fell into a daze when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s explanation. It took him a while to recover his senses.
Meanwhile, Qing Hong looked at Duan Ling Tian as though he had expected the explanation. He had been observing the surroundings. He did not find any trace from the law of earth, only the law of fire. At that time, he had already suspected that Duan Ling Tian was more skilled in the law of fire than the law of earth. With this, it made sense now why Duan Ling Tian did not choose the King Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities that contained the law of earth and choose the King Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities that contained the law of fire instead when he was on the top floor of the inner sect library.
When Sun Liang Peng finally regained his senses, he said with bright eyes,
Duan Ling Tian, you’re really the most talented prodigy I’ve ever met… Not only throughout the history of the Profound Nether Mansion’s territories, but I’ve never heard of anyone in the Southern Heaven Territory who’s a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial and has comprehended four profundities before reaching the age of 100!
Before reaching the age of 100?
Qing Hong was stunned by Sun Liang Peng’s words. He knew his brother valued Duan Ling Tian. Otherwise, his brother would not have asked him to fetch Duan Ling Tian’s servant from the Thousand Nations Territory or protect Duan Ling Tian. However, he was unaware that Duan Ling Tian was not even 100 years old.
Qing Hong nodded slightly as he thought to himself, ‘That’s right… If he isn’t so monstrously talented, why would my brother think so highly of him?’
It’s useless. I still can’t protect those who matter to me.
Duan Ling Tian walked to the remnants of Liu Guang Lin’s corpse and silently pieced Liu Guang Lin together before burying Liu Guang Lin. His eyes were red, and regret swelled up in his heart as he thought to himself, ‘If I’ve insisted that Guang Lin stays in the Supporting Fall Nation, this wouldn’t have happened…’
…
Meanwhile.
Someone in the Blood Skull Gang’s branch outside of the Profound Nether Mansion’s territories noticed that the Soul Pearl of one of their Six Combos Celestial King assassins had shattered!
