Chapter 3104: Jiang Lan’s Trump Card
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Lan felt truly regretful as he faced death. He had the chance to harvest the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruits and safely escape if he had only spared Duan Ling Tian, Ling Jue Yun, and Lin Fei Yang. However, he wanted to kill the trio because they refused to yield to him. It was too late for him to activate the defensive Formation he had set up in his past life now because he had underestimated the trio’s strength.
A crisp sound rang in the air as the maroon sword ray pierced Jiang Lan’s forehead and exited from the back of his head. The sword ray moved at lightning speed, making it difficult for people to catch its movement.
Duan Ling Tian did not claim Jiang Lan’s Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon, purely defensive Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, and Spatial Ring after Jiang Lan’s death. In just a flash, he appeared in front of Lin Fei Yang’s corpse. Upon closer inspection, a pool of water seemed to be hovering above Lin Fei Yang’s corpse.
“So this is a second-form World Cleansing Divine Water?” Duan Ling Tian asked the three Divine Elements in his body as he stared at the pool of water. Apart from the fact that it was strangely hovering in the air, it looked no different from an ordinary pool of water. At the very least, he could not see any difference at all. However, when he tried to extend his Divine Consciousness into it, he discovered his Divine Consciousness was being blocked by a profound energy.
“Yes, this is a second-form World Cleansing Divine Water... It has subconsciously left its host body, but it’s still in a deep slumber,” the Chaos Divine Flame said.
“Boy, what are you waiting for? Claim it now when it’s in an unconscious state. Any life form that touches it now would automatically claim it.” The Chaos Divine Earth’s childish voice rang promptly in Duan Ling Tian’s mind. “When it wakes up, it’ll be able to leave your body if it’s dissatisfied with you being its host. However, fret not! With how wise I am, it’d be easy for me to persuade it to stay.” Confidence was brimming from its tone as it spoke.
Duan Ling Tian did not pay attention to the Chaos Divine Earth’s boastful words. He raised his hand and touched the pool of water hovering in the air. As soon as he made contact with it, he felt a cool sensation. Then, he watched as the pool of water entered his body through his palm and settled in a corner of his body. He asked curiously, “When will it wake up?”
“It depends on how much it had exhausted itself. However, with our presence in your body, it’d definitely wake up much faster compared to when it was in Lin Fei Yang’s body. Although we’re different elements, our auras are capable of helping one another,” the Chaos Divine Flame replied.
After a moment, Duan Ling Tian seemed to recall something. A hint of anticipation could be heard in his voice as he asked, “Senior, I remember when you were still in your second form, you were already capable of helping me refine Celestial Pills. Even the Profound Divine Metal was capable of protecting my soul when it was in its second form. What can this second-form World Cleansing Divine Water do?”
“Although the World Cleansing Divine Water has only acknowledged you as its host in its unconscious state, it’d still subconsciously help you when you’re in danger. The second-form World Cleansing Divine Water is able to form a flexible defensive shield around you. However, its defensive ability is still no match for me when I’m in my second form,” the Chaos Divine Earth hurriedly replied, “That’s only natural since defense is my forte! In this regard, which one of the Five Divine Elements can compare with me?”
“Defensive ability? Does this include protecting your host’s soul?” the Profound Divine Metal said as soon as the Chaos Divine Earth’s voice fell.
The Chaos Divine Earth fell silent immediately. It specialized in physical defense, but the Profound Divine Metal was the best in soul defense.
After a moment, the Chaos Divine Flame added, “Apart from that, with the help of the World Cleansing Water, your success rate when inscribing high-level Celestial Talismans would increase in folds!”
After listening to the Chaos Divine Flame’s words, Duan Ling Tian finally learned about the benefits of owning a second-form World Cleansing Divine Water.
“Did you just claim ownership of a World Cleansing Divine Water, one of the Five Divine Elements?” A voice rang in the air at this moment.
Duan Ling Tian regained his senses and saw Ling Jue Yun had arrived in front of him at some point. He was surprised. “You can tell it’s a World Cleansing Divine Water?”
“Of course,” Ling Jue Yun nodded and said, “Duan Ling Tian, it’s useless to claim ownership of the World Cleansing Divine Water. The Five Divine Elements won’t choose descendants of supreme powerhouses like us as their hosts unless they’re in an unconscious state. Even if the World of Cleansing Divine Water unconsciously acknowledges you as its host, it’ll still leave you once it wakes up.”
“Why?” This was the first time Duan Ling Tian had heard of something like that since the Divine Elements in his body did not mention anything about it. He was slightly skeptical.
“This is because the power of blood contradicts the Five Divine Elements. The power of blood will continuously feed on the powers of the Five Divine Elements to supplement itself. Even if the Five Divine Elements in our bodies manage to evolve to a higher form, they’d still revert to a lower form once the power of blood absorbs their energies again,” Ling Jue Yun said as he harvested the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruits and passed one to Duan Ling Tian.
“There’s such a thing?” Duan Ling Tian seemed surprised when he heard Ling Jue Yun’s explanation.
“How weird. Isn’t this common knowledge among the descendants of supreme powerhouses? Anyway, let’s continue our conversation later. I have quickly harvested the two Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruits in case something unforeseen happens. Apart from that, I’ve also claimed Jiang Lan’s possessions,” Ling Jue Yun said.
Before Duan Ling Tian could reply, the cave began to shake violently as though there was a massive earthquake. At the same time, visible cracks appeared in the air and were spreading to every corner of the cave.
“Let’s go!” Ling Jue Yun beckoned Duan Ling Tian before he left the secret realm left behind by Jiang Liang in his past life through the nearest crack.
Now that the secret realm was beginning to crumble, they could leave through the cracks in the void.
Before Duan Ling Tian left, he saw the floating island and the cave slowly being pulled into the spatial turbulence. Apart from that, the tree of the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit had also turned into dust and scattered in the wind. If Ling Jue Yun were not quick with his action, the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruits would have been reduced to dust as well.
Once a Little World created by a Celestial Emperor collapsed, the cracks in the void were akin to exits. The cracks would transport them back to where they came from. With that, Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun appeared at the same time at the peak of the towering mountain.
“Is this Jiang Lan’s final trap?” Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes. Even in death, Jiang Lan was still causing them trouble. If Ling Jue Yun did not harvest the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruits earlier, all their efforts would have been in vain.
“That Jiang Lan really was something... When the Little World he created in his past life collapsed, it triggered a Killing Formation that shrouded the tree of the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit! With his strength in this life, it would be impossible for him to activate the Killing Formation. However, due to energy generated from the collapse of the Little World, the Killing Formation was activated.” Ling Jue Yun’s expression was solemn at this moment. He felt fortunate he had the foresight to quickly harvest the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruits. If he were a step too late while he conversed with Duan Ling Tian about the World Cleansing Divine Water, the two Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruits would have been destroyed.
“So it’s just a coincidence that the Little World collapsed when it did?” Duan Ling Tian asked. He could not help but feel the Little World’s collapse shortly after Jiang Lan’s death was too coincidental.
“Of course not,” Ling Jue Yun shook his head and said, ” That Jiang Lan must have used a Formation to connect the Little World to his Soul Pearl... Under such circumstances, if his Soul Pearl shatters, it would trigger the destruction of the Little World he had created.”
