War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 3903: The Deaths of the Advanced Gods

Zhuang Tian Heng did not expect the person in front of him to be a doppelganger from a law until Duan Ling Tian told him so after possessing Wu Hong Qing. With that, his respect toward Duan Ling Tian grew even more. After all, Duan Ling Tian’s doppelganger alone could easily kill Wu Hong Qing, who was a King of Gods, let alone someone like him.

“Prepare yourself. When the Main Title Temple Grand Contest starts, I’ll use Wu Hong Qing’s identity to promote you to become the new Temple Master,” Duan Ling Tian said nonchalantly.

Zhuang Tian Heng looked slightly worried as he said, “My lord, it’s not a problem for me to become the Temple Master, but I’m afraid the others will be dissatisfied. After all, there are a few more members who are stronger than I am. They weren’t here when Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang came previously…”

While most of the branch masters were unaware of the truth, Zhuang Tian Heng was one of the few who knew that the main Title Temple was previously destroyed by Feng Qing Yang. Not only that, but he also knew Feng Qing Yang had killed everyone present at that time. Due to the loss of manpower, Wu Hong Qing decided to hold the Main Title Temple Grand Contest.

“Don’t worry. I’ll take care of it,” Duan Ling Tian said.

Zhuang Heng Tian felt relieved upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words. Following that, he bade farewell to Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian, who possessed Wu Hong Qing’s body, returned to Wu Hong Qing’s room after using his Divine Consciousness to figure out the location.

‘What a pity! Wu Hong Qing’s spatial ring is like the one in the Realms of Gods that self-destruct upon their owners’ deaths….’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself when he recalled Wu Hong Qing’s spatial ring that had turned to dust as soon as Wu Hong Qing died. Even if there was nothing useful to him, that might not be the case for his family and friends.

‘Forget it. If I really need something, I’ll have Zhuang Heng Tian look for it after he becomes the Temple Master. In the coming 300 years, I’ll have complete control over the Title Temple, after all.’

…

When Zhuang Tian Heng returned, the group of participants he brought here from the Dream Cycle Heaven began to whisper among themselves.

Zhuang Tian Heng glanced at them and said, “Li Feng has been accepted as the Temple Master’s direct disciple…”

Li Feng was the name Duan Ling Tian had used in the Title Temple’s branch in the Dream Cycle Heaven. He had come up with that name after combining his mother and father’s names, Li Rou and Duan Ru Feng.

“What?!”

“The Temple Master accepted Li Feng as his direct disciple?”

“How’s that possible?!”

Everyone was shocked. The young cultivators were envious.

As more and more people arrived, they were finally escorted to their accommodations.

…

In just a blink of an eye, a month had passed, and the Main Title Temple Grand Contest was about to begin. Until now, Zhuang Tian Heng was the only one who was aware that Wu Hong Qing had died.

“Lord Temple Master!”

When Duan Ling Tian arrived in a valley, the venue of the Main Title Temple Grand Contest, everyone greeted him respectfully.

The younger cultivators’ eyes shone with reverence when they looked at him.

Duan Ling Tian hovered in the air and looked at the people below him. After he extended his Divine Consciousness, he sighed inwardly. ‘The Title Temple has so many geniuses… No wonder it manages to stay in power for so long…’

After a moment, Duan Ling Tian raised his hand, and the entire place fell silent.

The huge crowd’s attention was focused on Duan Ling Tian, who now possessed Wu Hong Qing’s body.

Duan Ling Tian said, “Initially, I planned to personally host the Main Title Temple Grand Contest. However, I’ve broken through recently so I need to continue cultivating. As such, I’ll appoint someone host the contest on my behalf.”

Although most of the people present were disappointed, they thought it was reasonable. After all, cultivation was very important.

“I’ve decided to let Branch Master Zhuang Tian Heng from the Dream Cycle Heaven to host the contest. Apart from that, I’ll also be resigning from my position and appointing Branch Master Zhuang as the new Temple Master of the main Title Temple so I can focus on my cultivation.”

Duan Ling Tian’s words stirred up a commotion immediately.

“What?! The Temple Master is appointing Zhuang Tian Heng as the new Temple Master?!”

“Zhuang Tian Heng is strong, but there are a few branch masters and elders who are stronger than him. Any of them are more qualified than him to become the new Temple Master, right? Why was he chosen?”

“Why is Zhuang Tian Heng?”

Everyone questioned the decision immediately. They whispered among themselves, afraid of being overheard.

However, there were a few bold ones who stepped forward and spoke out. They were the three advanced gods who were stronger than Zhuang Tian Heng. One of them was a young man and the other two were middle-aged men.

One of the middle-aged men said tentatively, “My lord, I’m afraid this isn’t appropriate…”

Normally, he would not dare to publicly question the Temple Master’s decision. However, due to the circumstances, how could he stay put and do nothing? How could he allow Zhuang Tian Heng, who only recently attained godhood, to surpass him and become the Temple Master?

The other middle-aged man said, “Lord Temple Master, I think it’s more suitable to appoint Elder Chu as the new Temple Master.”

Although the young man did not speak, it was clearly based on his expression that he disapproved of Duan Ling Tian’s decision as well.

Duan Ling Tian looked at the two middle-aged men before he asked the young man, “Do you disagree as well?”

The young man replied, “Lord Temple Master, I agree with the two guardians. Zhuang Tian Zheng only attained godhood recently. Let alone Elder Chu, he’s even weaker than us. Position-wise, he’s just a branch master. On the other hand, Elder Chu is the First Vice Temple Master of the main Title Temple.”

The young man was also a Vice Temple Master of the main Title Temple.

After the young man finished speaking, everyone held their breaths as they shifted their eyes back and forth between Duan Ling Tian and the three advanced gods. The atmosphere at this time was as cold as ice.

Duan Ling Tian finally said, “I, Wu Hong Qing, have already made up my mind. If you want to change my mind, you’ll have to defeat me.”

The three advanced gods’ expressions changed drastically. They felt that Wu Hong Qing was unlike himself. If Wu Hong Qing was domineering and unreasonable, they would not have dared to voice their dissatisfaction, after all.

A huge palm seal descended from the sky onto the three advanced gods immediately.

At the same time, the trio discovered that they had been restrained by an invisible force and could not even mobilize their Divine Energies. Before they could regain their senses, the palm seal had already struck them.

Boom!

The space tore, and a huge black hole appeared immediately before it slowly mended itself.

Just like that, the three advanced gods died.

When the crowd regained their senses, they did not even dare to move a muscle. Fear and reverence could be seen in their eyes as they looked at Duan Ling Tian. They did not expect their Temple Master would kill the three advanced gods so decisively just because they disagreed with him. They were also shocked by how easily he had killed the three advanced gods as though he was strangling chickens.

All of the branch masters who had a good relationship with Wu Hong Qing in the past keenly felt that there was something wrong with Wu Hong Qing. In their opinion, Wu Hong Qing was not so cruel.

At this moment, an aged and cold voice rang from the distance.

“Temple Master…”

In just a blink of an eye, an old man appeared, standing across from Duan Ling Tian and looking at Duan Ling Tian with a dark expression on his face.

Duan Ling Tian looked at the old man and asked expressionlessly, “Elder Chu, do you disagree with me as well?”
