Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Shou! The blue-clad young man moved very quickly. As he fled, the four hundred ancient horned dragons’ silhouettes plunged toward him from the space above. It was as fast as the wind.
A First Level Void Transformation martial artist who had comprehended the First Level Void Transformation Concept!
"Someone who entered from another entrance?" Duan Ling Tian’s gaze turned cold, and he moved rapidly. He soon surpassed a bunch of khaki puppets and easily arrived behind the blue-clad young man.
Whirlwind!
He moved again, and he finally caught up to the blue-clad young man. He swung the Quasi Royal Grade Spirit Sword in his hand, and the sword whistled as a lightning flashed.
"Cough..." The blue-clad young man did not even have the time to react when a sword mark clearly appeared on his neck. When he coughed, the sword mark bloomed and blood sprayed out. Boom! Boom! Boom!
...
Following the sound, the blue-clad young man along with the box containing the treasure fell on the ground. His body was dragged a few dozen meters by the inertia.
At the same time, the exquisite box fell open with a ’Pa!’ sound. A fragment with deep khaki energy appeared before Duan Ling Tian’ eyes.
"Earth...Earth Profundity Fragment?!"
Duan Ling Tian, who had just caught up, could not help but narrow his eyes. He waved his hand fiercely and used Origin Energy to move the fragment into his hands.
"Oh, no!" The moment the fragment landed in Duan Ling Tian’s hands, his Spiritual Force sensed a familiar aura on the box. It was the aura of an Inscription Formation.
"Congratulations, young man... This Seventh Level Monarch Stage Earth Profundity Fragment is now yours." The voice of the Martial Emperor emitted from the exquisite box. With a frightening and penetrating ability, the voice managed to spread far and wide.
’A modified Polyphony Formation!’ Duan Ling Tian frowned.
A normal Polyphony Formation could only transmit sound within a radius of a hundred meters. However, a modified Polyphony Formation had an extremely frightening and penetrating ability. In just a short time, It could transmit sound into everyone’s ear within a radius of ten thousand meters.
’He definitely did it on purpose!’ Duan Ling Tian was certain of it. As to the purpose, the Martial Emperor just wanted to make it harder for people to obtain the treasures.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
...
Suddenly, several dozens of the remaining khaki puppets caught up and surrounded Duan Ling Tian. They punched Duan Ling Tian with Stone Fist
.
"Hng!" Duan Ling Tian swung the Quasi Royal Grade Spirit Sword. He used Nine Dragons’ Radiant Flash and Dragon Soaring The Nine Heavens, killing half of the puppets instantly.
’Kill!’ All the remaining puppets died in Duan Ling Tian’s hands. A strong killing intent could be seen in his eyes. When the puppets fell on the ground, Duan Ling Tian raised his eyebrows as if he had sensed something.
Hu! Hu! Hu! Three figures pounced from three different directions and arrived before Duan Ling Tian in just a blink of an eye. They all stopped and revealed themselves.
There were three young men. They looked at each other before they shifted their gazes to Duan Ling Tian.
"Seventh Level Monarch Stage Earth Profundity Fragment!" Three pairs of eyes filled with intense greed focused on Duan Ling Tian.
They ignored the surrounding puppets that had been turned to stones, not to mention the corpse of the blue-clad young man that was buried among the stones.
The one with a rather stony face among the three of them calmly glanced at Duan Ling Tian and said coolly, "Hand over the Profundity Fragment in your hands... Or die!"
Although the other two men did not say anything, their eyes were still locked onto the fragment glinting with khaki energy in Duan Ling Tian’s hand. They knew it was the Seventh Level Earth Profundity Fragment!
When the Martial Emperor’s voice sounded earlier, they were the first ones to arrive.
’All of them didn’t come in with me.’ As Duan Ling Tian observed the three men surrounding him, he realized instantly that they did not come in with him from entrance No. 2.
"Which entrance did all you come in from?" Duan Ling Tian asked bluntly with a glint in his eyes.
"No.1!" The young man with a stony face said.
"Entrance No.1?" Duan Ling Tian saw the light and kept asking, "You are all from the northern desert too?" Having heard what Duan Ling Tian said, the other man raised his eyebrows and questioned arrogantly and rudely, "You’re from the northern desert?"
Nevertheless, Duan Ling Tian was not bothered by his tone. He managed to confirm their origins from what they said.
"All of you want this Profundity Fragment?" Duan Ling Tian asked calmly while he weighed the fragment in his hands.
"Of course!" The man who had questioned Duan Ling Tian cried bluntly.
"But there’s three of you... Who should I give the Profundity Fragment to?" Duan Ling Tian glanced at them and asked curiously.
"No matter who it is for, you’ll have to give it up first!" The young man with a stony face said with certainty.
"Then who should I give it to?" Duan Ling Tian asked again.
"Hand it over to me," the young man who questioned Duan Ling Tian said.
"I’m okay with that," the young man who had been keeping quiet all this while said.
He smiled as he told the young man with a stony face, "The minority should obey the majority,"
"Hng! Don’t think I don’t know that all of you are Izumo Sect’s disciples... You’ve exposed yourselves by using the Izumo Movement Technique when you were rushing over," the young man with a stony face said with disdain.
The two men who previously echoed each other looked at him and quietly asked, "Does that mean you’re from North Nether Sect?"
"You’re right" He nodded without denying it.
"The people from North Nether Sect were absent when we, Izumo Sect, came in with those from Anicca Sect... I really didn’t expect that all of you would make it in time." The Izumo Sect’s disciple, who was rude earlier, sneered.
’Izumo Sect! Anicca Sect! North Nether Sect!’ Duan Ling Tian’s eyes shrank when he heard their conversation. He had never heard of these sects before leaving Five Element Sect.
He managed to learn a lot regarding the northern desert after leaving Five Element Sect when they were traveling to the southwest entrance of the Martial Emperor’s secret treasure. In the northern desert, the eastern, southern and western district were respectively dominated by several third-tier forces.
However, the central district and northern district of the northern desert were dominated by three powerful second-tier forces. All three had been inherited for thousands of years. The central district of the northern desert was under Izumo Sect, the northern district of the northern desert was ruled by North Nether Sect, and Anicca Sect controlled the border of the central and northern district.
’So they’re disciples from Izumo Sect and North Nether Sect?’ Duan Ling Tian took a deep breath. He thought to himself, ’That’s why they’re so strong... They’re the young powerhouses from the second-tier forces.’
"Senior brother Xu, stop talking to him... We should just kill him and snatch the Profundity Fragment from that boy," one of the Izumo Sect’s disciple suggested.
"Alright!" The eyes of the Izumo Sect’s disciple, who was addressed as Senior brother Xu, brightened when he heard it. He immediately flew out and attacked the North Nether Sect’s disciple with a stony face.
The other Izumo Sect’s disciple followed closely.
Xiu!
Oin! Both of them, one with a sword and the other with a saber, fully exerted their abilities from the beginning. One from the left and the other one from the right, both of them attacked the stationary North Nether Sect’s disciple who seemed like he was scared and shocked.
Hua! Hua! Both of them displayed their strength and had five hundred and fifty ancient horned dragons’ silhouettes at the space above them.
Both were First Level Void Transformation martial artist. Their Origin energies, if fully exerted, were equivalent to two hundred ancient horned dragons’ strength.
Both of them used Grade two spirit weapon that could boost almost seventy-eight percent of their Origin Energies’ strength, amounting to more than a hundred and fifty ancient horned dragons’ strength.
Moreover, they had comprehended First Level Void Transformation Concept. It amounted to two hundred ancient horned dragons’ strength. In total, it was more than five hundred and fifty ancient horned dragons’ strength!
’Come to think of it... The blue-clad fisherman who wanted to profit off me earlier could possibly be from Izumo Sect, North Nether Sect or Anicca Sect too?’ Duan Ling Tian stood aside, he was temporarily ignored by the three of them. He could not help but think of the blue-clad young man he had killed earlier. He was also a First Level Void Transformation martial artist who had comprehended First Level Void Transformation Concept that did not enter from entrance no. 2. Qiang! Qiang! Qiang! Qiang! Qiang!
...
At that moment, the sound of weapon clashing and strong wind from the battle forced Duan Ling Tian to pay attention.
It could be seen that the North Nether Sect’s disciple was not threatened by the two Izumo Sect’s disciples’ attacks at all. He easily blocked their attacks with a pair of iron fists.
Obviously, the North Nether Sect’s disciple was not fighting with his bare hands. He was wearing a grade two spirit weapon glove and fought with ease against his opponent’s Spirit Sword and Spirit Saber.
Duan Ling Tian remained unfazed by the scene.
Hua! In the space above the North Nether Sect’s disciple, the number of ancient horned dragons’ silhouettes increased again. It increased until there were more than eight hundred and thirty of them charging toward the two Izumo Sect’s disciples with their claws sharp and fangs bared.
"He’s a Second Level Void Transformation martial artist who has comprehended Second Level Void Transformation Concept... I wonder if he’s the strongest among the young powerhouses in North Nether Sect," Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself. "If he isn’t... How strong is their No.1 then?"
