Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

‘It seems like these are people who have just passed the trial.’ Duan Ling Tian surveyed his surroundings. Not only did he discover that everything in the hall he had just exited could be seen, but he also discovered he could see everything that was happening in other halls. There was a total of ten halls, and three of the halls were occupied by participants who were still going through the trial.

“Huh?” After Duan Ling Tian watched the other participants’ trials for a moment, a frown appeared on his face. He saw one of the participants had killed seven battle souls, but the remaining three battle souls showed no sign of merging. In the end, the participant killed three of the battle souls without them merging. The remaining two participants had also killed more than five battle souls each; similarly, the battle souls showed no sign of merging.

Duan Ling Tian was annoyed and puzzled by this. ‘This... What’s going on? Why is my trial so much more difficult than theirs?’

At the same time, Xue Jing Yu, the Second Prince of the Southern Qi Nation, noticed the confused expression on Duan Ling Tian’s face. He took the initiative and said, “Duan Ling Tian, did you help another person obtain ten points to enter the Celestial Lord Temple?”

Duan Ling Tian looked at Xue Jing Yu skeptically. Although Duan Ling Tian did not know why Xue Jing Yu would ask such a question, he still nodded in response. Indeed, he had helped Huang Ji Chao obtain ten points to enter the Celestial Lord Temple. “That’s right.”

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s reply, Xue Jing Yu said, “It’s considered as cheating to help someone to obtain ten points to enter the Celestial Lord Temple. That’s why the first trial you faced after entering the Celestial Lord Temple had a higher difficulty level. There was a person who wasn’t any weaker than me who died facing the same trial you did...”

“Cheating?” Duan Ling Tian frowned. He did not expect there to be such a rule in the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm; he had never heard of it before. However, when he recalled those who obtained ten points and were granted entry to the Celestial Lord would lose their memories after exiting the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, he thought it was only natural that the rule was not widely known.

At this moment, Ling Jue Yun, the genius sectless cultivator from the East Ming Nation, called out, “Duan Ling Tian.” Then, he made his way over to Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian was surprised that Ling Jue Yun would take the initiative to greet him. He nodded and calmly replied, “Ling Jue Yun.”

“Can I talk to you in private?” Ling Jue Yun asked.

“Hm?” Although Duan Ling Tian did not know what Ling Jue Yun’s intentions were, he nodded and acquiesced to Ling Jue Yun’s request without asking any question.

“Thank you very much.” Ling Jue Yun thanked Duan Ling Tian when he saw the other party agreeing to his request. Then, he led Duan Ling Tian back into the hall that Duan Ling Tian had just exited.

Meanwhile, Xue Jing Yu who had heard Duan Ling Tian calling out Ling Jue Yun’s name fell deep in his thoughts. He found the name familiar. ‘Ling Jue Yun? That’s right... He’s the genius who’s representing the East Ming Nation. He’s a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial who comprehended a power of the law. During the Southern Heaven Combat in the East Ming Nation, he had defeated all the other participants.’

At this moment, everyone, including Xue Jing Yu, could see Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun who stood facing each other in the hall. Ling Jue Yun’s back was facing a few people standing outside.

All of a sudden, a middle-aged man looked at Xue Jing Yu and curiously asked, “You said earlier that the purple-clad young man is from the Thousand Nations Territory?”

Upon hearing this, a few people turned to look at Xue Jing Yu.

“Yes.” Xue Jing Yu nodded. “It’s not just him. The person in the hall with him and I are also from the Thousand Nations Territory. Unlike me, who’s from the Southern Qi Nation, they’re both sectless cultivators. They’re only representing the Supporting Fall Nation and the East Ming Nation to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. They’re not citizens of the nations they’re representing...”

“I didn’t expect that three people from the Thousand Nations Territory managed to enter the Celestial Lord Temple...” The middle-aged man sighed.

At this time, an old man standing next to the middle-aged man asked, “I... If I’m not mistaken, the purple-clad young man isn’t even 100 years old, right?”

When Duan Ling Tian followed Ling Jue Yun into the hall, the old man had instinctively extended Divine Consciousness to probe Duan Ling Tian for a brief moment. It seemed like Duan Ling Tian was less than 100 years old, but he was not very sure.

Upon hearing the old man’s words, a few people, including the middle-aged man, shook their heads disbelievingly.

“What?!”

“The purple-clad young man isn’t even 100 years old? Impossible!”

“How can someone who hasn’t even reached the age of 100 be so strong?”

“He’s right,” Xue Jing Yu calmly replied, “It’s not just the purple-clad young man. The grey-clad young man with him is also less than 100 years old... If you don’t believe me, you can confirm my words when they come out...”

“What?!”

“Both of them... are under 100 years old?”

“The purple-clad young man comprehended two profundities of a law. How can he be less than 100 years old? Are you joking?”

When the crowd heard the conviction in Xue Jing Yu’s words, they no longer doubted him. After all, there was no reason for him to lie. Moreover, just as Xue Jing Yu had suggested, they could check for themselves when the duo exited the hall. If they wanted to confirm it now, they could even enter the hall now. However, none of them had the courage to do such a thing. After all, the purple-clad young man was insanely strong. Although they were strong as well, they had only comprehended one profundity from a law. They were far from being a match for him.

...

In the hall.

Duan Ling Tian looked at Ling Jue Yun and asked, “What’s the matter?” He was, naturally, slightly curious.

Ling Jue Yun did not beat around the bush and bluntly asked, “Duan Ling Tian, do you know Xia Jie?”

“Xia Jie?” Upon hearing Ling Jue Yun’s words, Duan Ling Tian’s eyes widened imperceptibly. Waves of emotions rose in his heart immediately.

Xia Jie. Duan Ling Tian was, naturally, familiar with this name. Moreover, Xia Jie had left a deep impression on him. After all, Xia Jie was Ke’er’s third uncle in her previous life. Not only that, but Xia Jie had saved his life in the mundane realm and gave him a first-form Profound Divine Metal and a Devata Divine Sword.

“Which Xia Jie are you talking about?” Duan Ling Tian asked after calming down. He did not think Ling Jue Yun, a mere Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, would know Xia Jie. After all, Xia Jie was someone who was stronger than Heavenly Emperors of the Devata Realms. He was from the Divine Offering Land, one of the Realms of Gods!

“I’m talking about Xia Jie, the third master of the Xia Clan in the Divine Offering Land!” Ling Jue Yun slowly said.

Upon hearing the words ‘Divine Offering Land’, Duan Ling Tian was shocked. Indeed, Ling Jue Yun was talking about Ke’er’s uncle! He was perplexed. How did Ling Jue Yun know about the Divine Offering Land? ‘Ling Jue Yun is just an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. How does he know about Xia Jie and the Divine Offering Land?’

Duan Ling Tian inhaled deeply before he asked with narrowed eyes, “How did you know I knew him?”

Ling Jue Yun replied honestly, “It’s due to the prominent artifact in your body, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword. That’s Xia Jie’s sword. Since it’s with you now, he must have given it to you.”

The Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword!

Duan Ling Tian looked at Ling Jue Yun warily and asked, “Who are you?”

“I’m from the Divine Offering Land,” Ling Jue Yun who had expected this question calmly said, “To be precise, I’m from the Ling Clan in the Divine Offering Land. It’s a solitary but peaceful clan...” He subconsciously clenched his hands into fists, and his eyes reddened when he mentioned the Ling Clan. Waves of killing intent rolled out of his body at the same time. His voice was cold as he continued to say, “Although our Ling Clan wasn’t as famous as the Xia Clan, and our strength was slightly inferior to the Xia Clan, our clan was as famous as the Xia Clan back then...”

Upon seeing the changes in Ling Jue Yun, Duan Ling Tian wondered inwardly, ‘Does he hate his clan? Or did something happen to his clan?’ He could clearly sense the hatred from Ling Jue Yun’s killing intent. However, he did not know who or what the hatred was directed at. He asked, slightly perplexed, “You asked to talk to me privately... just to say this?”

After entering the hall, except for the first sentence by Duan Ling Tian, the duo had been communicating through Voice Transmission.

“No.” Ling Jue Yun shook his head. “I have something to ask of you... Please let the soul of my elder sister’s prominent artifact become the artifact soul of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword in your body!”

The artifact soul of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword?

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes widened again. “What do you mean?”

“My elder sister had a prominent artifact. When she died, the prominent artifact was also taken away. However, the artifact soul forcibly separated herself from the prominent artifact that had become masterless at the cost of serious injuries. That’s how she came to temporarily reside in my consciousness,” Ling Jue Yun said, “After she becomes the soul of the Seven Orifice Exquisite Sword, her life will be completely in your hands. You don’t need to worry that she’ll turn against you. As long as you are the master of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, you’ll be her master as well... She can’t escape from the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword as long as the Seven Orifice Exquisite Sword has a master!”
