Chapter 2507 A Good Show
“Left Guardian, Duan Ling Tian killed Wu Xiao, the strongest Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial in Mouro Realm. His strength is comparable to a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!” Zhang Yi said solemnly, “Let alone the Right Guardian, even our patriarch, the Free Cloud Sage, wouldn’t be able to defeat him!” He knew Duan Ling Tian’s strength very well. He had divulged this information to Zhang Chu He so that Zhang Chu He would not drag the Celestial Masters Sect down a destructive path just because of his personal grudge with Duan Ling Tian. Zhang Chu He would only cause the downfall of the sect if he persisted.
The Celestial Masters Sect was a large and influential force in Yan Huang Realm. In comparison, Duan Ling Tian was just a lone wolf with no attachments. If both sides were to fight, the Celestial Masters Sect had much more to lose. As a disciple of the sect, Zhang Yi, naturally, did not wish for the sect to be destroyed. For this reason, he had spoken up to Zhang Chu He.
Zhang Chu He said, “Duan Ling Tian? So he’s the one who killed a Seven Tribulation Bodiless as soon as they encountered each other.” He had heard of Duan Ling Tian killing a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial while he waited here. He also heard that Duan Ling Tian had killed a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial who possessed a Celestial Supreme Treasure. Rumor had it that Duan Ling Tian had succeeded in killing that Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial with Celestial Supreme Treasure due to the technique he had mastered that enabled him to snatch all weapons, including Celestial Supreme Treasures, from his opponents. This was the extent of Zhang Chu He’s knowledge about Duan Ling Tian. He was unaware of what had happened near the location of the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial. For this reason, he did not take Zhang Yi’s warning seriously. Instead, he thought Zhang Yi was exaggerating Duan Ling Tian’s strength to intimidate him. If he was cowed by Zhang Yi’s words, would it not give Zhang Yi a chance to avoid punishment. Moreover, if Zhang Yi was telling the truth, why did Duan Ling Tian not kill him the moment he attacked? Why did Duan Ling Tian bother wasting words with him?
Unbeknownst to Zhang Chu He, Zhang Yi was the only reason Duan Ling Tian did not deal with him harshly as he normally would.
Just as fifteen minutes were about to pass, a booming voice that sounded like the tolling of a giant bell rang in the distance. “Guardian Chu He, what troubles you that you had to summon me?” Soon after, a short and stout old man with a surprisingly muscular body appeared in everyone’s sight. He looked at Duan Ling Tian skeptically before a hint of surprise appeared on his face when he saw Zhang Yi. “Zhang Yi?”
Zhang Yi sighed softly when he saw this old man. He quickly sent a Voice Transmission to Duan Ling Tian. “This person is Shi Zhong, the Right Guardian of Celestial Masters Sect. If it’s possible, can you please show him some mercy? He’s my master’s benefactor.” It was clear he wished to protect the Right Guardian.
“Don’t worry,” Duan Ling Tian replied through Voice Transmission as he looked at Zhang Yi reassuringly, “Apart from Zhang Chu He, I won’t fatally injure other members of the Celestial Masters Sect. I know how much you yearn to stay in the sect.”
Zhang Yi said with a sigh, “Well, it’s where I came from after all.”
Zhang Chu He said in a thunderous voice, “Guardian Shi Zhong, Zhang Yi had colluded with an outsider to kill a sect member. He killed my grandson, Zhang Yun Fei. He should be executed!”
Whoosh!
As soon as Zhang Chu He finished speaking, the Right Guardian’s expression darkened immediately. His eyes seemed to bore through Zhang Yi as he asked, “Is Guardian Chu He telling the truth, Zhang Yi? Did you collude with an outsider and kill Zhang Yun Fei?”
Zhang Yi’s master might be one of Shi Zhong’s favorite disciples, but Zhang Yun Fei was an important person among the younger generation. He was second only to his older twin brother, Zhang Yun Teng. The Celestial Masters Sect, naturally, valued talented youths. For this reason, Shi Zhong was angry when he heard Zhang Yi might have worked with an outsider to kill a promising youth in the sect.
“Right Guardian, I...” Zhang Yi began to explain himself.
However, Zhang Chu He quickly interrupted Zhang Yi. He scoffed as he said, “What kind of excuses are you going to come up with? I personally witness the entire incident through the Mirror Image Formation. How can you still deny it?” After a moment, he said fiercely, “Today, I’ll kill the man responsible for my grandson’s death, and then, I’ll kill you as well!” He flew across the sky in an arc toward Duan Ling Tian like a brilliant rainbow. It was clear that this time around, he no longer held back any of his strength. After all, his opponent was as strong as him.
“You’re overestimating yourself!” Faced with Zhang Chu He’s impending attack, Duan Ling Tian only blinked before he pushed his hands forward.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The Sword Formation hovering above Duan Ling Tian reacted to his movement. As though it possessed a mind of its own, it flew toward the seemingly-imposing Zhang Chu He.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Zhang Chu He knew Duan Ling Tian’s Sword Formation was powerful enough to rival the full strength of an Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial so he braced himself and drew all his power to directly collide with Duan Ling Tian’s attack!
The sound of something being torn rang near Zhang Chu He. As he charged toward Duan Ling Tian’s Sword Formation, tears began to appear in the void around him like spiderwebs.
“How strong!” Tang Xiao Xiao who was standing next to Duan Ling Tian looked on with excitement. She had heard of Duan Ling Tian’s strength through word of mouth but had yet to witness it personally. She was excited to see the result of this battle.
As soon as Zhang Chu He collided with the Sword Formation, he was sent flying, throwing up blood. He looked extremely wretched at his moment. It was clear his strength was lacking compared to Duan Ling Tian.
Shi Zhong’s eyes widened in surprise. He studied Duan Ling Tian again in earnest. When he had arrived earlier, he had discovered Duan Ling Tian was only an Eminent Celestial through his Divine Consciousness. How could he not feel shocked when Duan Ling Tian managed to defeat the Left Guardian of Celestial Masters Sect despite only being an Eminent Celestial? Although Duan Ling Tian had only narrowly defeated Zhang Chu He, it was still a victory nonetheless. A hint of trepidation rose in his heart. However, he was not entirely frightened. After all, based on the strength Duan Ling Tian had demonstrated, if he joined forces with Zhang Chu He, they would be able to defeat Duan Ling Tian. “No wonder Zhang Chu He summoned me. This one’s a beast!’ When he regained his senses, he asked calmly, “Are you the man who inherited the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial? Which force are you from?”
Zhang Chu He who had somewhat recovered from his injury spoke up at this moment, “Guardian Shi Zhong, he’s not from Yan Huang Realm. He’s from a small mundane realm called the Saint Province Realm. Anyway, what’s important is there’s a Celestial Sword in his Sword Formation!”
“A Celestial Sword?!” Shi Zhong immediately turned his attention to the Sword Formation above Duan Ling Tian. Indeed. There was a Celestial Sword. His gaze turned heated instantly.
“Is everyone in the Celestial Masters Sect so long-winded?” Duan Ling Tian said flippantly as he looked at Zhang Chu He and Shi Zhong. For Zhang Yi’s sake, he had decided to let Shi Zhong join the fight. However, enough was enough. His patience had been stretched to its limit, and he no longer wanted to waste any more time.
“Impudent!” Duan Ling Tian’s words shocked Zhang Chu He and caused Shi Zhong’s expression to darken. Shi Zhong thought Duan Ling Tian was outrageously arrogant.
Zhang Chu He sneered and lunged at Duan Ling Tian again like a cockroach that refused to die.
Duan Ling Tian disregarded Zhang Chu He and said to Shi Zhong calmly, “Shi Zhong, you’re the Right Guardian of Celestial Masters Sect, right? I’ve been waiting for you so you can watch a good show. Now that you’re here, let the show begin!”
“A good show?” Shi Zhong was bewildered. He was about to join in the fight but Duan Ling Tian’s words caused him to stop moving. Soon after, he witnessed a scene he would never be able to forget in his life.
Duan Ling Tian had just finished speaking when the Sword Formation above his head flew out again. However, this time there were six Sword Formations. As they flew out, they began to merge into one, emitting an extremely terrifying aura. He had cast his Divine Ability, the Thirteen Green Lotus Swords, as well. He did not hold back his strength at all.
“This aura...” Shi Zhong muttered to himself when he felt Duan Ling Tian’s aura.
Meanwhile, Zhang Chu He was already panicking. “No! This is impossible! Imposs...” He had unleashed all his strength, and yet, this Sword Formation easily defeated him.
‘Nine... Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial! He’s as strong as a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!’ Shi Zhong exclaimed inwardly as his eyes widened in fear. ‘It’s possible that Feng Qing Yang from the Saint Province Realm, who obtained the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial, was as strong as this young man before he ascended!’
