War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 2817: Offensive-Defensive-Movement Celestial Method Or Divine Ability

Before Duan Ling Tian, Situ Ming, Yang Chong, and Yu Zhong Jing could react, Bai Ping, the Sect Leader of Tai Yi Celestial Sect, had already disappeared before their eyes. Only his voice echoed in his wake. “Master Duan, I’ll go see the Old Ancestor right now... I believe he’ll agree to you using our sect’s King Grade Celestial Weapon on top of the Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Abilities as a stake as well!”

Based on Bai Ping’s words, it was obvious he had gone to see the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, who was also the sect’s sole Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke, to discuss Duan Ling Tian’s plan for the Alchemy Conference that would be held two years later. After personally witnessing Duan Ling Tian’s perverse speed in heating the cauldron, he was, naturally, brimming with confidence.

“This...” Yu Zhong Jing was stunned.

“Who would have thought the sect leader would be excited to this extent? I never knew he has this side to him.” Situ Ming smiled wryly. He had known Bai Ping for many years, but this was his first time seeing Bai Ping in such a state.

“If a King Grade Celestial Weapon is added on top of the Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Abilities, people might even be willing to use their triple-trait Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities as a stake. Who knows if someone might have an offensive-defensive-movement Duke Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability?” Yan Chong said hopefully.

“Triple trait? An offensive-defensive-movement Celestial Method or Divine Ability?” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes brightened when he heard Yang Chong’s words. An offensive-defensive-movement Celestial Method or Divine Abilities was undoubtedly even more precious than a double-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability, let alone a single-trait Celestial Method and Divine Ability. It was three times more valuable than single-trait Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities.

Needless to say, one could save even more time with a triple-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability compared to a double-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability. For example, if one comprehended an offensive-defensive Celestial Method or Divine Ability, one would still need to comprehend an assist-type or movement Celestial Method or Divine Ability. With a triple-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability, one would no longer have to waste time comprehending a separate Celestial Method or Divine Ability. Moreover, for talented individuals, it would be easier for them to cultivate a triple-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability in comparison to cultivating them in separate parts. Similar to how it was more efficient to cultivate and comprehend a double-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability compared to a single-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability, it was far more efficient if one had a triple-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability!

‘The Supreme Sword Dao Mental Cultivation Method, the Sovereign Heart Sword, that I inherited from Senior Feng Qing Yang is equivalent to an earth-grade offensive-defensive-movement Celestial Method!’ Duan Ling Tian who had comprehended the Sovereign Heart Sword was, naturally, aware of this. This Celestial Method was undoubtedly superior compared to single-trait and double-trait Celestial Methods.

At this moment, Yang Chong shook his head and smiled wryly. “Although I’m the last one to join the sect among the three of us, I’ve still been in the sect for a long time. Today is the first time I’ve seen the sect leader in such a state. Where did his bearing as the sect leader go?”

“Well, his reaction is understandable,” Situ Ming said with a smile, “Having personally confirmed Master Duan’s cauldron heating speed, it’s only natural that our sect leader has developed a blind trust in Master Duan. Since he’s sure of Master Duan’s victory, what’s wrong with increasing the stakes?”

Situ Ming continued to say, “It’s just as you said. If a King Grade Celestial Weapon is added to the stakes, we might even obtain an offensive-defensive-movement Celestial Method or Divine Ability. If our sect obtains a triple-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability like that, not only would our sect leader’s name go down in history for being the first person to help obtain a triple-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability for the sect, but it would boost our sect’s strength as well. How could the sect leader not be excited by this prospect?”

After a brief pause, Situ Ming looked at Duan Ling Tian and solemnly said, “Master Duan! The Alchemy Conference will be held two years later. I suggest that you don’t comprehend or cultivate the Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Abilities you just obtained from the sect. After all, you wouldn’t gain much after comprehending them for two years. It’s better to save your time and energy since it’s highly likely that you’ll obtain a double-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability during the conference. If you’re lucky, you might even obtain a triple-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability. During these two years, it’s better that you wholeheartedly focus on the Dao of alchemy and cultivation.” His advice was given in earnest.

“I agree.” Yu Zhong Jing nodded lightly.

“Indeed.” Yang Chong agreed with Situ Ming’s words as well. He said, “Rather than wasting time on meaningless and superfluous matters, it would be better to focus on the Dao of alchemy... If it gets too overwhelming, you can resume cultivating to calm your heart before you start on alchemy again.”

Situ Ming said, “During this time, Master Duan, you can speak to me if there’s something you don’t understand about alchemy. I’ll surely help you without withholding any information!”

“The same goes for me,” Yang Chong chimed in.

Although Yu Zhong Jing remained silent, the look in his eyes was enough to convey his intention.

“Many thanks, masters.” Duan Ling Tian expressed his gratitude.

“There’s no need to thank us, Master Duan....After all, if you truly manage to win an offensive-defensive-movement Celestial Method or Divine Ability, it’ll benefit us and the sect as well,” Yang Chong said smilingly.

“I’m confident there’s a high chance Master Duan will be able to obtain a triple-trait Celestial Method or Divine Ability.” Based on Situ Ming’s words, one could see how optimistic he was.

Yu Zhong Jing only smiled faintly. However, it was clear that he felt the same way as his peers.

The four of them waited for about half an hour before Bai Ping finally returned with a huge grin on his face.

“Sect leader, did the Old Ancestor agree to your proposition?” Situ Ming asked even though he knew the answer when he saw the smile on Bai Ping’s face.

“Yes, he agreed!” Bai Ping nodded before he turned to look at Duan Ling Tian and said, “Master Duan, the Old Ancestor intends to accompany you during the Alchemy Conference. He wants to see your skills in alchemy. Most importantly, it’s to protect you. After all, if you win those valuable Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities, it’s inevitable that there would be a few people with nefarious intentions in the absence of a powerful expert guarding you.”

“In that case, please express my gratitude to the Old Ancestor,” Duan Ling Tian said politely. He was well aware that apart from protecting him and witnessing his skills, the Old Ancestor wanted to accompany him to the Alchemy Conference so that he could make sure the King Grade Celestial Weapon would not be lost. After all, the King Grade Celestial Weapon was the only one in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect and the Wasteland. Its importance to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect was immense. If the Tai Yi Celestial Sect were to lose the King Grade Celestial Weapon, it would lose a significant amount of its strength as well.

Bai Ping exchanged a few more words with them before he left.

Soon after, Duan Ling Tian also bade farewell to the three prominent Celestial Alchemists and returned to his residence.

“Huan’er,” Duan Ling Tian called out when he was certain Huan’er was not cultivating. Then, he recounted the day’s event to her.

“So you’ll be participating in the Alchemy Conference two years later...” Huan’er eyes shone as she asked excitedly, “There will be many Celestial Alchemists from the Wasteland and the other regions so it would be really lively, right?”

“Do you want to join in the fun as well?” Duan Ling Tian could, naturally, see through Huan’er’s thoughts. He shook his head and smiled helplessly.

“Can I?” Huan’er asked. If Duan Ling Tian was attending the Alchemy Conference alone, there was no doubt he would bring her along as well. However, he had said earlier that apart from the three prominent Celestial Alchemists, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke, would be attending the Alchemy Conference as well.

“Huan’er, if you wish to attend the conference, you can, naturally, come along.” He reached out and patted Huan’er’s head affectionately. A doting expression could be seen on his face.

When they were in the Little World, based on Du Fei’s words, Duan Ling Tian understood that although Huan’er was a rare Thousand Phantom Ice Fox who would only appear once in a million years in the Phantom Fox Clan, she had also become a thorn to some people in the Phantom Fox Clan. Otherwise, why would Du Fei, the Celestial King, ask him to keep Huan’er away from the members of the Phantom Fox Clan? She had bluntly said that if some of the forces in the Phantom Fox Clan found out that Huan’er was a Thousand Phantom Ice Fox, the Du family aside, they would kill her at all cost! The Du family was Huan’er’s family in the Phantom Fox Clan. It was obvious that opposing forces of the Du family in the Phantom Fox Clan would be unhappy about the existence of a Thousand Phantox Ice Fox in the family.

Duan Ling Tian could vaguely feel how helpless Huan’er’s mother must have felt when she had to leave back then. After all, how could it be easy for a mother to leave her daughter behind? Therefore, he felt sympathetic toward Huan’er and doted on her even more.

“Huan’er wants to go!” Huan’er tugged Duan Ling Tian’s hand excitedly as soon as she heard his words. She was just like an overgrown child.
