War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

2603 Gigantic Rod Tremor

“Jian Qiu Ping! I’ll give you three breaths to cast and use all your skills and techniques. If I can’t defeat you in a single strike after three breaths, I, Duan Ling Tian, will concede the position of Captain of the Black Dragon Army to you!” Duan Ling Tian said icily.A heavy silence descended on the Valley of Ares as his words resounded in everyone’s ears for a long time. Everyone, including Chen Xuan Ba, the Commander of the Black Dragon Army, and Jian Qiu Ping, was shocked by how outrageous Duan Ling Tian’s words were!

Chen Xuan Ba was the first to regain his senses. When he looked at Duan Ling Tian, his eyes gleamed with suspicion as he thought to himself, ‘Is it possible that I’ve underestimated Duan Ling Tian?’ As the Commander of the Black Dragon Army, he was a good judge of character. Although Duan Ling Tian’s words were domineering and arrogant, he could see Duan Ling Tian was brimming with confidence. Moreover, it did not seem like Duan Ling Tian was putting on a front. After all, the confidence Duan Ling Tian exuded was not something that could be faked!

Meanwhile, Jian Qiu Ping who had just regained his senses laughed uproariously as though he had just heard a very funny joke. His laughter was so loud that it caused everyone to regain their senses.

“Captain Duan s-said that he’s going to defeat Centurion Jian with a single strike? Heavens! Is he joking?”

“Defeat Centurion Jian Qiu with a single strike? I’m afraid only Commander Chen is capable of that in the Black Dragon Army, right?”

“If he’s truly so strong, why is there a need for him to come here and assume the position of a captain?”

“I think he’s just putting on a front. Perhaps, he’s doing this to mentally affect Centurion Jian, sort of like a psychological attack.”

“Psychological attack? Based on the current situation, Centurion Jian doesn’t seem to be affected by his words at all.”

Based on the discussions of the officers and soldiers of the Black Dragon Army, one could see they thought Duan Ling Tian was just boasting and putting on a front. None of them believed he was capable of defeating Jian Qiu Ping with a single strike.

“Our captain is truly...”

“Although I believe he’s not any weaker than Jian Qiu Ping, it doesn’t seem like he’ll be able to defeat Jian Qiu Ping with a single strike, right?”

“What’s our captain doing? Why did he say he’s going to concede the position to Jian Qiu Ping if he can’t defeat Jian Qiu Ping with a strike? Does he dislike being our captain?”

Even Duan Ling Tian’s subordinates were stunned by his words and found them hard to believe. Although they were confident he would not be defeated by Jian Qiu Ping, they did not think he would be able to defeat Jian Qiu Ping with a single strike! If Jian Qiu Ping was a mere centurion who had yet to become a Golden Celestial, it would be possible for him to achieve such a feat. However, Jian Qiu Ping was a Golden Celestial and had been a captain for a long time! Only Chen Xuan Ba, the Commander of the Black Dragon Army, would be capable of defeating Jian Qiu Ping with a strike in the Black Dragon Army.

“Arrogant!”

“I think he’s crazy!”

Among the four captains standing behind Chen Xuan Ba, Qin Yu and Zhao Dong Xing wore a slight frown on their faces while Hu Ji and Chai Wen Yu had a contemptuous expression on their faces.

Hu Ji and Chai Wen Yu had been disdainful of Duan Ling Tian ever since they learned he was only a Violet Moon Heavenly Celestial. Naturally, they did not believe Duan Ling Tian when he said he was going to defeat Jian Qiu Ping with a single strike. They only thought Duan Ling Tian had gone crazy!

After Jian Qiu Ping stopped laughing, his eyes gleamed with anger as he said disdainfully, “Is there a need for me to cast and use all my techniques and skills just to defeat a mere Violet Moon Heavenly Celestial? I just need to use half of my strength to defeat you!” As soon as he stopped speaking, the Celestial Origin that he had mobilized since a while ago surged out of his body like a trapped dragon that had just broken free of its constraints. He roared, “Duan Ling Tian, I don’t even need a Celestial Weapon to defeat you. All I need is a mere rod!” His Celestial Origin Energy twined around his body like a dragon and lifted him into the sky and transformed into a pair of wings. This was a movement Divine Ability that he had mastered. He did not use any Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities since he did not see the need for it.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The Celestial Origin Energy in Jian Qiu Ping’s palm solidified into a long rod as the wind howled in the air. It was obvious that he was skilled with the rod. As he charged toward Duan Ling Tian, he bellowed, “Gigantic Rod Tremor!” Based on his speed, he would be able to reach Duan Ling Tian in just a blink of an eye.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Jian Qiu Ping wielded the long rod that was formed from his Celestial Origin Energy skillfully. It seemed as though his rod was capable of causing a tremor in heaven and on earth!

Hu Ji and Chai Wen Yu who were standing behind Chen Xuan Ba looked at Jian Qiu Ping in admiration as though they could already see the scene of Duan Ling Tian being defeated.

“Based on Jian Qiu Ping’s strength, this rod is more than enough to defeat a Violet Moon Heavenly Celestial!”

“Jian Qiu Ping’s rod contains the subtleties of Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. The Gigantic Rod Tremor is an attack he had mastered by merging an offensive Celestial Method and offensive Divine Ability. Hence, its power should not be underestimated.”

Meanwhile, Chen Xuan Ba looked at Duan Ling Tian intently as he murmured to himself, “I really want to see how you’re going to defeat Jian Qiu Ping with a single strike...” He saw Duan Ling Tian remained calm even as Jian Qiu Ping charged toward him menacingly with his rod. It seemed like Duan Ling Tian did not take Jian Qiu Ping seriously at all.

“Hmm?” In between lightning and thunder, Chen Xuan Ba who was carefully observing Duan Ling Tian saw a flicker of disdain in Duan Ling Tian’s eyes.

At the same time, Jian Qiu Ping brandished his rod and was fast approaching Duan Ling Tian.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

When Jian Qiu Ping was only a stone throw away from Duan Ling Tian, the ear-piercing sound of wind howling rang in the air. It sounded as though it could split the heavens.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, dazzling sword rays surged out of Duan Ling Tian’s body. There were so many of them that it seemed that there were at least 10,000 of them.

Boom!

At the same time, a loud and heavy sound similar to a drum rang in the air.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Soon after, a series of thunderous explosions rang in the air, stirring up a flurry of hurricanes in the Valley of Ares. The hurricanes were so strong that some soldiers with a weaker cultivation base could not see what was going on.

At this moment, a giant sword had appeared under Duan Ling Tian’s feet. The giant sword was formed by the dazzling sword rays that surged out from his body earlier. The giant sword seemed like an impenetrable fortress as it repelled Jian Qiu Ping’s seemingly powerful strike from his rod.

As soon as Jian Qiu Ping’s rod connected with the giant sword under Duan Ling Tian’s feet, his hands trembled from the backlash. His rod that was formed from his Celestial Origin Energy disappeared instantly, and he was sent flying back like a shot arrow. After he spat out a mouthful of blood, he managed to regain his footing. His eyes burned with fury and humiliation as he roared, “Duan Ling Tian, I want you dead! Die!”

Everyone was stunned speechless by this scene.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The wind howled again.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

At this moment, Jian Qiu Ping had brought out his Celestial Weapon, a long rod, and he had also cast all his Divine Abilities. His Celestial Origin Energy had risen in strength before he cast the Gigantic Rod Tremor again! Although it was the same technique, now that he had unleashed it with his full strength, the attack was, naturally, stronger. The Celestial Rod whistled in the air as it fell toward Duan Ling Tian like a falling pillar of heaven. The visual impact was truly stunning. It seemed capable of destroying heaven and earth!

Bang!

Jian Qiu Ping’s Celestial Weapon, a long rod, finally connected with the gigantic sword beneath Duan Ling Tian’s feet that seemed like a protective shield. The power from the Gigantic Rod Tremor was two times stronger this time around!
