The remaining leaders from the Three Palaces and Six Halls were in a panic over Yuwen Hao Chen, the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace, becoming an Eminent Celestial. They had gathered to discuss countermeasures. Who knew they would see two beams of Penta-color Sunglow shooting up to the sky from the Wandering Saint Palace. Naturally, they knew what this meant. There were two people in the Wandering Saint Palace who had become Eminent Celestials.
"Is it possible that Shi Nan Feng, the Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace, had attracted the Celestial Ascension Tribulation and had successfully overcome it?" They began to speculate among themselves.
In the end, they could no longer suppress their curiosity and made their way to the Wandering Saint Palace's estate.
"Lord Palace Master!"
"Lord Hall Master!"
The arrival of the other leaders from the Three Palaces and Six Halls had naturally attracted the attention of the high-ranking officials from Three Palaces and Six Halls. Many of them began greeting and paying respect to their leaders.
The Hall Master of Azure Sheen Hall was a middle-aged man who was dressed like a scholar. He looked at Gongsun Jin, one of the Vice Hall Masters, and asked in a deep voice, "Vice Hall Master Gongsun, what's going on? Palace Master Yuwen isn't the only one who overcame the Heavenly Tribulation? Why are there two beams of Penta-color Sunglow?"
"Lord Hall Master… I think we should discuss this after you greet Lord Patriarch," Gongsun Jn said to the Hall Master of Azure Sheen Hall as he looked at the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan.
The Hall Master of Azure Sheen Hall was shocked when he heard this. His eyes followed Gongsun Jin's line of sight and saw the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan standing in a hidden corner. "Lord Patriarch!" He instantly forgot about the two beams of Penta-color Sunglow and flew toward the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan to greet him.
"Lord Patriarch?!" The other leaders were similarly shocked when they found out their patriarch was present as well. They followed the Hall Master of Azure Sheen Hall and flew to greet the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan.
"Hm." The Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan only glanced at them before he ignored them. The indifferent expression on his face disappeared when his attention returned to the Penta-color Sunglow. His eyes glinted coldly.
"Who's the other person shrouded in the Penta-color Sunglow? Why does Lord Patriarch seem so hostile?" The leaders were confused but returned to where their subordinates were standing.
Soon enough, they discovered the person who had earned their patriarch's dislike was none other than Duan Ling Tian, the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion!
"Duan Ling Tian? The Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion? He has also become an Eminent Celestial?"
"When Palace Master Yuwen attracted the Celestial Ascension Tribulation, he seized the chance and used that to attract his Celestial Ascension Tribulation as well… Moreover, he managed to overcome it?"
"In our history, no one has successfully overcome the Heavenly Tribulation under such circumstances. Duan Ling Tian has broken the curse!"
Needless to say, the leaders who had just arrived were shocked when they learned about this.
"Why didn't you inform me of this immediately?" They began to reprimand their subordinates.
"Lord Palace Master, I didn't think Duan Ling Tian would survive. For this reason, I didn't think it was necessary to inform you about it immediately. Who knew he had so many tricks up his sleeve and managed to overcome the Heavenly Tribulation at the last minute!" Wu Tian Jin, the Vice Palace Master of Crimson Blaze Palace, said to the palace master.
The five other Vice Hall Masters told their leaders the same thing as well.
"Fine… Fortunately, we made it in time. Otherwise, we would have missed a good show!"
The leaders did not dwell on the matter. Similar to the others, their eyes were currently focused on Duan Ling Tian who was surrounded by the Penta-color Sunglow.
"Even if Duan Ling Tian becomes an Eminent Celestial, he's still not a match for Lord Patriarch!"
The leaders who had just arrived also thought that Duan Ling Tian would die after the Penta-color Sunglow went away.
...
"The Penta-color Sunglow heralds the emergence of a new Eminent Celestial… It won't be too long before it disappears. The Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan will probably strike as soon as the Penta-color Sunglow disappears…" Duan Ling Tian knew the Penta-color Sunglow would appear once he had successfully overcome the tribulation since he had knowledge about the Celestial Ascension Tribulation. His expression was solemn when he thought about this.
Duan Ling Tian quickly came up with a plan. 'I should take this opportunity when the Penta-color is still around and the patriarch is afraid to attack to cast my assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, and increase the Celestial Origin Energy in my body!'
As soon as Duan Ling Tian cast the assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, whirlpools began to appear around him and a powerful suction force could be felt. The Penta-color Sunglow was unaffected as the whirlpools churned and absorbed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the surroundings at lightning speed.
'It's absorbing the energy so quickly!' Duan Ling Tian discovered that by using the Celestial Origin Energy that had been fused with Saint Origin to cast the Elementary Devouring Tactic, the rate of absorption was incredibly fast. In just an instant, he had absorbed all the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the surroundings of Yuwen Hao Chen's residence!
'This…' It did not take long for Duan Ling Tian to discover that he was still absorbing Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy further than where Yuwen Hao Chen's residence was. His range of absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy had widened! In just a blink of an eye, he had absorbed almost all of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the Wandering Saint Palace's estate!
'I think there's no limit to how far I can absorb Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy now!' Duan Ling Tian was shocked when he discovered this.
Previously, Duan Ling Tian needed a long time if he wanted to absorb Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy outside of his range. He would need to move places to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy. Currently, he did not move from his spot at all and he managed to absorb almost all of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the Wandering Saint Palace's estate in just half a breath's time!
