'Sometimes wealth brings calamity!' Duan Ling Tian had heard of the saying.
Duan Ling Tian felt pressured. It weighed on his heart like a huge stone.
"The Golden Lion King wants me to dispose of the two Super Saint Weapons he thinks I possess. Unless I'm willing to give up the Devilseal Tablet, I can't simply reveal myself in public until I'm strong enough to hold on to the Devilseal Tablet!" Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself as his expression darkened.
In other words, in the coming days, Duan Ling Tian would not be able to use his name when he went out. Otherwise, he would be hunted by all the powerhouses in the Upper Province.
As a Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet was a huge temptation! Moreover, the Golden Lion King had even said that Duan Ling Tian also owned the Traceless Sword.
Similar to the Devilseal Tablet, the Traceless Sword was also a Super Saint Weapon ranked on the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking!
"There are only ten Super Saint Weapons in the entire Dao Martial Saint Land… Since the Golden Lion King spread the rumor that I own two Super Saint Weapons, I'm afraid everyone is jealous of me!" Duan Ling Tian's eyes were cold like a snake that was about to devour its prey. "Golden Lion King, I'll remember what you've done today. When I break through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, you'll be able to join your son in hell!"
Since Duan Ling Tian had been forced into a corner by the Black Kshetra Sect's Golden Lion King, he had no choice but to go into hiding until he became strong enough to protect himself. For this reason, he hated the Golden Lion King to the core even though he had never met him.
"Innate Spiritual Roots… I need more Innate Spiritual Roots!" Ever since Duan Ling Tian's Innate Spiritual Root turned indigo, he could clearly feel the improvement in his cultivation speed. Therefore, he became even more eager to improve his Innate Spiritual Root.
"As long as my Innate Spiritual Root evolves into a dark violet Innate Spiritual Root, with the help of the time flow in the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, it'll take me a few years at most before I break through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage! Once my cultivation base reaches the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, there's no need for me to hide anymore. At that time, it doesn't matter if I own the Devilseal Tablet or if I own two Super Saint Weapons. Who would dare to offend me?"
At this moment, as Duan Ling Tian indulged in his thoughts, he began to feel motivated again. It was as though he could already imagine himself breaking through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Naturally, after he regained his senses, it felt as though someone had poured a bucket of ice-cold water on him.
'Since I've disguised my face and my body is hidden by the long and loose black robe, no one will be able to recognize me even if my portraits are currently being circulated everywhere.' Duan Ling Tian sighed in relief when he thought about this.
"I've just broken through to the Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage, and I still need it to stabilize. I should take advantage of this time to wander around Sin City to see if I encounter any more men from the Black Crow Alliance," Duan Ling Tian muttered under his breath before he left the inn he was temporarily staying in.
Fortunately, the men from Black Crow Alliance did not hear Duan Ling Tian's words. Otherwise, they would have been afraid and they would not dare to take advantage of the situation in Sin City.
With Duan Ling Tian's current strength, he could kill the Leader of the Black Crow Alliance with just a strike, let alone the ordinary members!
The Black Crow Alliance was of similar strength to the Ground Ax Alliance. Both their leaders were at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.
The Deputy Leader of Black Crow Alliance, Jiao Zhan, would never expect that the man who had impersonated Bu Hong, a true disciple from the Fire Worship Sect, and killed his brother, Jiao Tu, was planning to act against the Black Crow Alliance.
For a period of time, Duan Ling Tian wandered the streets of Sin City. Whenever he saw members from the Black Crow Alliance trying to take advantage of someone when they were hurt, he would kill the members of the Black Crow Alliance without showing any mercy.
Naturally, it was not only the people from the Black Crow Alliance who took advantage of weaker people who were killed. Other people who acted similarly were killed by Duan Ling Tian as well before he devoured their Innate Spiritual Roots. However, the fact remained that the majority of the people who died in Duan Ling Tian's hands was from the Black Crow Alliance.
There was an uproar in the estate when the Black Crow Alliance found out about this.
"This black-robed man kills our men whenever he sees them trying to take advantage of the weak? Moreover, he kills them with just a strike?"
This was shocking news to the people from the Black Crow Alliance.
Suddenly, everyone in the Black Crow Alliance felt like they were in danger. In fact, many people thought they should stop taking advantage of the weak. Otherwise, they would definitely die if they met the black-robed man!
"Who the hell is he? Is he targeting the Black Crow Alliance? Does he want to make an enemy out of the Black Crow Alliance?" One of the Black Crow Alliance members growled.
"Not only men from the Black Crow Alliance were killed by him… Those who bully or take advantage of the weak will be killed by him," another Black Crow Alliance member said. Based on his words, it seemed like he knew quite a bit about the black-robed man's modus operandi.
"What's he trying to do? Does he think he's a vigilante? How funny!"
"Regardless, he has killed a lot of men from our Black Crow Alliance… He owes us an explanation!"
"Owes us an explanation? Are you kidding me? Generally, people from the Black Crow Alliance wear uniforms that show we're from the Black Crow Alliance. Did it seem like the man gave a shit when he killed our men?"
"In my opinion, the black-robed man is simply trying to provoke the Black Crow Alliance! If he doesn't die, it'll be hard for our alliance to remain standing in Sin City in the future!"
Similar remarks could be heard in the Black Crow Alliance's estate.
Bang!
A sudden loud bang came from the front yard of one of the mansions inside the Black Crow Alliance's estate. The sound was caused by Jiao Zhan, the Deputy Leader of the Black Crow Alliance, when he destroyed the stone table in his front yard. Not only did he destroy the stone table, but there was a hole where the stone table originally stood. There were dust and debris everywhere.
"Who gave him the courage to do this! He dares to kill so many of my men!" Jiao Xhan said angrily as his eyes gleamed coldly. He looked like a poisonous snake at this moment.
"Since Leader and the other two Deputy Leaders aren't around. I'll deal with you, Black-robed Vigilante!" As soon as Jiao Zhan finished speaking, he left his mansion like a gust of wind.
The black-robed man was what people from the Black Crow Alliance called Duan Ling Tian since no one knew who he was. Little did they know, it was Duan Ling Tian who was hiding his identity.
…
'It's still too slow! I've killed so many people, but they all had low-grade Innate Spiritual Roots. It's just like a drop of water in a bucket to improve my indigo Innate Spiritual Root.' There was a frown on Duan Ling Tian's face as he wandered around Sin City again.
...
"Hey, did you hear about it? Recently, a black-robed man has appeared in Sin City who seems to very righteous and filled with justice!"
Duan Ling Tian suddenly heard people speaking in front of him.
"Are you talking about that black-robed man who killed a lot of the Black Crow Alliance members for taking advantage of the weak?"
"That's right!"
"You say he's righteous, but why do I feel like it's a dog-eat-dog situation?"
"Well, take makes sense as well. However, even if that's the case, I don't hate him. Because of him, the people from the Black Crow Alliance have tone down a little."
Duan Ling Tian was not surprised when he heard this since he had heard conversations similar to this before.
There were people in Sin City who praised and criticized his actions. Some people thought he was like a vigilante, and there were also people who thought it was a dog-eat-dog situation, and he was a wicked man.
Regardless of what people said, Duan Ling Tian only ignored them and continued to wander around Sin City, looking for those wicked men who took advantage of the weak.
If one appeared, he would kill one!
If two appeared, he would kill two!
In other words, he was intentionally looking for trouble with these people to improve his Innate Spiritual Root.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
A series of explosions rang in the air suddenly, catching Duan Ling Tian's attention. He looked over to the source of the commotion and saw two people fighting. Based on what he could see, it seemed like neither would give up until the other died.
This fight had attracted many powerhouses' attention.
Duan Ling Tian hid at the side so there were not many people who noticed him. Otherwise, there would definitely be a commotion since he was famous in Sin City now. His long and loose black-robed had become his trademark.
In Sin City, no matter where it was, a commotion would break out if a person in a long and loose black robe appeared even if the person was not Duan Ling Tian.
"There are more and more people fighting Death Duels recently..." Duan Ling Tian could not help but smile bitterly when he saw those two people fighting in the distance.
Recently, there were a lot of people who managed to stay alive even after losing their Death Duels due to Duan Ling Tian's intervention.
For this reason, many people began to get into Death Duels since they felt Duan Ling Tian would protect them.
