Chapter 3074: Leng Ye

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Wind Shadow Escape Talisman was a one-time use Celestial Talisman. It granted the user an incredible speed for ten breaths.

The Wind Shadow Escape Talisman that Sun Liang Peng gave to Duan Ling Tian was inscribed by a Celestial Lord. It contained the law of wind’s Wind Style Profundity and the Gale Profundity. Most importantly, the two profundities were at the initial stage.

In the Southern Heaven Territory, it was extremely rare for Celestial Lords and those weaker to master profundities to the initial stage. This was because Royal Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities that contained laws were very rare in the Southern Heaven Territory. Even the sects and clans that possessed such Royal Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities protected them as though they were their lives. They were, naturally, uninclined to share it with others. Moreover, comprehending and mastering profundities to the initial stage was incredibly difficult compared to mastering them to the rudimentary stage. Even someone with high comprehension skills needed a long time to comprehend profundities to the initial stage unless they had external help.

In the Spirit Overarching Heaven, the Southern Heaven Territory was not considered large at all. Therefore, how could a small region in the Spirit Overarching Heaven have something like Royal Grade Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities that contained laws? It was even more difficult to find external help that could help one quickly to comprehend the profundities to the initial stage.

Duan Ling Tian was aware of all these things, therefore, he knew how valuable the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman that Sun Liang Peng had given him was. Perhaps, if one viewed this with a wider perspective, the value of this talisman was not much. However, in the Southern Heaven Territory, it was a hard-to-come-by treasure. Even the people who were capable of inscribing such a talisman were rare. To inscribe this Celestial Talisman, not only did one have to be powerful, but one had to master the profundities of a law in the Celestial Talisman. Apart from that, one needed materials strong enough to hold the talisman creator’s Celestial Origin Energy and the profundities from a law.

The Wind Shadow Escape Technique could be considered as one of the finest of the Celestial Talismans in the Southern Heaven Territory.

“In the current Southern Heaven Territory, the number of Celestial Lords or those weaker who have comprehended profundities to the initial stage can be counted on one hand. Moreover, most of them are from top sects or clans. The Blood Skull Gang doesn’t have Celestial Lord or those weaker who have comprehended any profundity to the initial stage,” Sun Liang Peng said to Duan Ling Tian, “Therefore, we can be certain the assassin sent by the Blood Skull Gang hasn’t comprehended any profundity to the initial stage.”

Sun Liang Peng continued to say, “A profundity that has been comprehended to the initial stage has the strength equivalent to three profundities that have been comprehended to the rudimentary stage... Moreover, with the Celestial Origin Energy that had been imbued into the Celestial Talisman by the Celestial Lord who inscribed the talisman, you’ll definitely be able to leave the Nine Palaces Celestial King assassin in the dust. However, the effect only lasts for ten breaths.”

After hearing Sun Liang Peng’s words, Duan Ling Tian was even more convinced it was best to accept the talisman and quietly leave the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate instead of killing that Blood Skull Gang’s assassin with his consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon that would definitely raise a commotion.

Moreover, Duan Ling Tian had already lied to Sun Liang Peng about using up the last of the power from the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon. It would be difficult to explain to Sun Liang Peng later how he managed to survive. Although the Celestial Talisman’s effect would only last for ten breaths, it should be enough for him to escape the assassin. Coupled with Sun Liang Peng’s insistence, he decided to accept the Celestial Talisman to escape the Blood Skull Gang’s assassin and safely leave the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate to meet Ling Jue Yun.

At this moment, Sun Liang Peng asked, “Duan Ling Tian, when are you planning to leave?”

“Now,” Duan Ling Tian replied.

“In that case, let me see you out.” Sun Liang Peng rose to his feet. “I’ll accompany you to the periphery of the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate. At that time, you can use the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman and swiftly leave the sect’s estate.”

“Many thanks, sect leader.” Duan Ling Tian rose to his feet as well. He knew Sun Liang Peng accompanying him would allow him to use the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman to its full potential.

Then, the duo no longer wasted time and left the courtyard, leaving Sun Liang Peng’s residence.

...

As soon as Duan Ling Tian and Sun Liang Peng emerged from Sun Liang Peng’s residence, Wang Qian Zhan, the Grand Elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, noticed their movements immediately.

“Hmm?” Wang Qian Zhan narrowed his eyes as they flashed with killing intent. “Duan Ling Tian is finally willing to leave the sect leader’s residence?”

Wang Qian Zhan had been keeping watch for seven years now! After seven years, Duan Ling Tian finally emerged from the sect leader’s residence that no one dared to take half a step into without permission.

When he saw Duan Ling Tian and Sun Liang Peng walking next to each other, making their way to the entrance of the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate, he wasted no time in contacting the Blood Skull Gang’s assassin who was waiting near the sect’s estate. “Lord Leng Ye, Duan Ling Tian has left the sect leader’s residence. Based on the direction they’re heading, it seems like he’s going to leave the sect’s estate.”

With Sun Liang Peng next to Duan Ling Tian, Wang Qian Zhan knew it would be impossible for him to personally kill Duan Ling Tian when Duan Ling Tian left the sect’s estate even if he attacked with all his strength. Sun Liang Peng was much stronger than him after all. Therefore, when he saw Sun Liang Peng accompanying Duan Ling Tian, he immediately contacted the Blood Skull Gang assassin.

In Wang Qiao Zhan’s opinion, with the assassin’s strength, even if Sun Liang Peng accompanied Duan Ling Tian on his trip, Sun Liang Peng would not be able to protect Duan Ling Tian. He was confident Duan Ling Tian would die!

...

The Blood Skull Gang’s assassin might not dare to make a move in the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate due to the Profound Nether Mansion, but once Duan Ling Tian left the sect, he longer had anything to fear.

“He dares to leave the sect’s estate?” Near the Simplicity Celestial Sect Estate, inside a cave on the cliff of a steep mountain, the Nine Palaces Celestial King from the Blood Skull Gang narrowed his eyes. A contemptuous smile could be seen on his face. Killing intent flashed in his eyes as he left the cave and made his way to the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate.

...

In the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate.

Duan Ling Tian and Sun Liang Peng walked side by side at leisurely speed as they made their way to the sect’s estate entrance.

“Sect leader, the grand elder is still watching me,” Duan Ling Tian said with an indifferent smile on his face.

Earlier, as soon as the duo stepped out of Sun Liang Peng’s residence, Duan Ling Tian had seen Wang Qian Zhan’s figure from afar and could feel Wang Qian Zhan’s cold gaze on him.

“Over these seven years, the grand elder didn’t relent at all. Wang Hong’s death has caused him to go insane for revenge,” Sun Liang Peng said as he shook his head. During the past seven years, whenever he left his residence, he would see the grand elder keeping a sharp eye on his residence, keenly watching every movement in his residence. Although he was displeased by Wang Qian Zhan’s unbecoming behavior, even if he was the sect leader, there was nothing much he could do as long as Wang Qian Zhan did not make a move. Moreover, Wang Qian Zhan was a Grand Elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. As long as Wang Qian Zhan did not directly break the sect’s rules, the other high-ranking officials of the sect would not agree to him disposing of Wang Qian Zhan as well. Therefore, despite his displeasure, he could only put up with Wang Qian Zhan constantly keeping an eye on his residence.

“Sect leader, you said the Blood Skull Gang’s assassin is very likely already lying in wait outside the sect’s estate?” Duan Ling Tian asked.

“Yes.” Sun Liang Peng nodded slightly.

“Don’t tell me the grand elder acted so quickly and has already informed the assassin that I’m leaving the sect’s estate?” Duan Ling Tian asked.

“That’s highly likely.” Sun Liang Peng nodded slightly again. In fact, he was 100% certain Wang Qian Zhan had already notified the Blood Skull Gang’s assassin as soon as they stepped out of his residence. Unfortunately for Wang Qian Zhan, it would be futile even if he had contacted the assassin from the Blood Skull Gang.

A sneer appeared on Sun Liang Peng’s face as he said, “He would never expect that I would give you the only Wind Shadow Escape Talisman in my possession.”

Soon enough, Duan Ling Tian and Sun Liang Peng arrived at the edge of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. There was an array of Formations set up by masters of Formations using a large number of resources. Once Duan Ling Tian stepped out of the sect’s estate, he would instantly lose the great protection from the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s Formations.

If the Blood Skull Gang’s assassin were to kill someone within the Formation, he would leave his aura on the Formation. At that time, it would not be difficult for the Profound Nether Mansion to track him down and kill him. Therefore, despite being a Nine Palaces Celestial King, he did not dare to make a move in the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate. That would only be seeking death.

When Duan Ling Tian and Sun Liang Peng arrived at the edge of the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate, the Blood Skull Gang’s assassin who was hiding noticed the duo immediately.

The assassin hid in the dark and stared at Duan Ling Tian unblinkingly as he thought to himself, ‘Once Duan Ling Tian leaves the sect’s great Formations, he’ll definitely die. Sun Liang Peng is the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, after all. If I kill him, there will certainly be repercussions from the Profound Nether Mansion. It’s better that I spare Sun Liang Peng’s life. My target is only Duan Ling Tian alone.’

At this moment, Celestial Origin Energy was already brewing on the surface of the assassin’s body. As soon as Duan Ling Tian stepped out of the protection of the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s great Formations, he would make his move without any hesitation.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian who was standing at the edge of the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate did not detect the assassin’s presence. After all, the power from the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon had been exhausted when he killed the Six Combos Celestial King from the Blood Skull Gang. No matter how talented he was, how could a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial detect the presence of a Nine Palaces Celestial King if the Nine Palaces Celestial King deliberately kept his presence hidden?

At this moment, Sun Liang Peng looked at Duan Ling Tian and solemnly said, “Duan Ling Tian, there’s nothing much for me to say to you. I only hope that you’ll cherish your life and put your life first. Although the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit is precious, it’s better to prioritize your life over the fruit. After all, if you lose your life, you’d lose everything...”
