"Crazy! He's crazy!"
"He's insane! Even if he's an Eminent Celestial who has mastered a Divine Ability from the Devata Realms, his opponent is a Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial… In the mundane realm where I came from, the most powerful Eminent Celestial only has strength comparable to a Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. They're as rare as a hen's teeth. Who does he think he is?"
"Maybe he's one of those extraordinarily strong Eminent Celestials?"
"Impossible! Do you know how rare those Eminent Celestials are? Moreover, even if he's one of those strong Eminent Celestials, he still wouldn't be a match for this Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial."
"You're right. Look at him, he's obviously a greenhorn who doesn't know what's good for him!"
When the crowd regained their senses, they began to discuss among themselves. Most of them thought Duan Ling Tian was a fool.
"You said you'll kill me?" Pei Kun Shan looked at Duan Ling Tian disdainfully when he regained his senses. "Boy, I'll give you one more chance to tell me where you're from. Otherwise, I'll have to teach you a lesson on behalf of your elders!" His eyes flashed coldly as he spoke.
Pei Lian Chen glared at Duan Ling Tian with killing intent as he said to Pei Kun Shan, "Grandpa, why are you wasting words with him? Just kill him!"
Pei Kun Shan frowned when he heard Pei Lian Chen's words. He was reluctant to kill Duan Ling Tian. Naturally, it was not because he was benevolent. He was only afraid of the possibility that Duan Ling Tian might have a formidable background. After all, an Eminent Celestial who had mastered a Divine Ability from a Devata Realm had to come from a top-ranking force. Such a person definitely had a high status. If he killed someone like that, the members of his sect might come looking for him. Even if they were from another mundane realm, who knew if they would enter Mouro Realm through the point of entrance and exit in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone?
"You're going to teach me a lesson on behalf of my elders?" Duan Ling Tian sneered when he heard Pei Kun Shan's words. He said indifferently, "How unfortunate you won't have a chance to do so!"
Everyone, including Pei Kun Shan and Pei Lian Chen, was stunned speechless by Duan Ling Tian's words. They could not figure out where he got his confidence from.
At this moment, a sword appeared in Duan Ling Tian's hands. It was the Celestial Sword that was as translucent as a pool of water. "Sword Wielding Art!" His energy that was enhanced by the assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, surged into the Celestial Sword immediately.
Whoosh!
The Celestial Sword instantly lit up and emitted a destructive aura. Since the space in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone was much more stable compared to the mundane realms, the force from Duan Ling Tian did not tear holes in the void.
"How's this possible?!" Apart from Han Xue Nai who was standing the closest to Duan Ling Tian, Pei Kun Shan was the first to sense the destructive aura from Duan Ling Tian's Celestial Sword. As soon as he sensed the energy, he felt his heart sink. His instincts told him that the person in front of him was dangerous. After a while, his expression changed drastically. Alarm began to blare in his mind when he verified that Duan Ling Tian was holding a Celestial Supreme Treasure. "No! I-is that a Celestial Supreme Treasure?!"
Xiu!
At this moment, the short-lived sound of a sword cry rang in the air.
Pei Kun Shan's eyes widened in fear and shock. In just a blink of an eye, the Celestial Sword was only a mere foot away from him.
"No!" Pei Kun Shan hurriedly mobilized his Celestial Origin Energy. Although the speed was not slow, he did not think he would be able to completely mobilize his energy in time. Based on the speed of the sword, it was comparable to the speed of a Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestial or someone stronger.
'He's an Eminent Celestial whose strength is equivalent to a Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestial…' This was Pei Kun Shan's last thought as a soft noise sounded in the air. Something had pierced his glabella, effectively destroying his soul. Before he died, he finally understood why the purple-clad young man was so bold as to say he would kill him. As it turned out, the purple-clad young man was not boasting.
After killing Pei Kun Shan, Duan Ling Tian did not even waste any time before he turned around and used his sword to pierce Pei Lian Chen's glabella as well. He had killed both of them with just one strike!
Xiu!
After killing Pei Kun Shan and Pei Lian Chen, the Celestial Sword drew an arc in the air as it flew back to Duan Ling Tian's hand.
At this moment, time seemed to have stood still for everyone present. The Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestials, in particular, were thunderstruck since they managed to catch a brief glimpse of Duan Ling Tian's attack. It took them a while before they regained their senses.
"Even the strongest Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial wouldn't be able to cast such an attack, right?"
"Since Pei Kun Shan who was a Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial couldn't even react in time and dodge the attack, doesn't it mean this person is as strong as a Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?"
"Who is he? He has such heaven-defying strength despite only being an Eminent Celestial!"
The Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestials present on the scene felt their hearts thumping wildly in their chests when they discussed this among themselves.
Meanwhile, the rest of the people present on the scene finally regained their senses one after another. All of them were baffled. They saw Pei Kun Shan's body fading away while Pei Lian Chen's body fell to the ground. As a Bodiless Celestial, Pei Kun Shan had no physical body, therefore, when he died, he only faded away.
"This…"
"What's happening?"
"Pei Kun Shan… is dead?"
"H-he's a Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, how can he die so easily?"
"Pei Lian Chen is dead as well!"
Shock and disbelief could be seen on the crowd's faces.
Meanwhile, Zhang Yi and Liu Xia who had been worried about Duan Ling Tian were in a similar state as well. They did not expect Duan Ling Tian would be able to defeat a Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial so effortlessly. His opponent did not even have the time to retaliate!
Zhang Yi felt chills running up his spine as he thought to himself, 'Killing a Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial so easily as though he's killing a chicken… Does this mean his strength is comparable to a Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?' At this moment, he finally realized he had truly underestimated Duan Ling Tian. Contrary to his assumption, Duan Ling Tian was much stronger than a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!
The only person who did not seem surprised was Han Xue Nai. After all, she had known Duan Ling Tian's strength was comparable to a Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestial before they even entered the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone.
As the current successor of the Red Dust Progeny, Han Xue Nai was very knowledgeable even though her cultivation base was only at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. "Brother Ling Tian, your sword..." She could tell Duan Ling Tian's sword was extraordinary.
Duan Ling Tian said with a faint smile on his face, "I obtained this Celestial Sword in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone."
Although Duan Ling Tian's voice was not loud, everyone present heard his words clearly.
Celestial sword? A Celestial Supreme Treasure?
A Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial said in horror, "That's why his attack is so terrifying! As it turns out, he was using a Celestial Supreme Treasure!"
The remaining Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestials turned to look at Duan Ling Tian in unison. An envious expression could be seen on their faces.
At this moment, many people's eyes were darting back and forth between Duan Ling Tian and the small silver bell that was protected by Formations.
"It seems like today he'll gain another Celestial Supreme Treasure."
Swoosh!
Just as expected, Duan Ling Tian vanished from his spot in just a blink of an eye. When he reappeared, he was next to the small silver bell. He had gone through the Formations as though the Formations were only there for show.
