Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"Wild guess?" Cha Bai's words left Duan Ling Tian stunned for a moment before he burst out laughing again.
This time, he realized that more than half of the people present had begun to look at him weirdly with doubtful gazes after they heard Cha Bai's words.
It was apparent that they were all shaken by Cha Bai's words.
"No matter which level you said Nangong Yi's comprehension is at, it doesn't matter if it's the Ninth Level Intermediate Wind Concept or the First Level Advance Wind Concept, you still have a fifty-fifty chance of getting it right," Cha Bai looked at Duan Ling Tian and sneered. "From what I can see, you're just lucky."
"Look at mine then," a cold voice suddenly interjected and eclipsed Cha Bai's laughter.
It was Nangong Chen who was standing at the side all this time. He strode forward as he looked at Duan Ling Tian and opened his usually taciturn mouth, "I don't know whether I've comprehended the Ninth Level Intermediate Earth Concept or the First Level Advance Earth Concept after coming out of the Profound Assimilation Formation. Since Peak Master Cha Bai said that Duan Ling Tian is merely making a wild guess while looking at Senior Brother Yi's Concept, I wonder if Duan Ling Tian will be able to get it right this time."
The instance his words left his mouth, everybody, including Duan Ling Tian, shifted their gazes to him. The spotlight immediately turned to him.
…
The Five Element Sect's young disciples, including Tian Zhen and Tan Huan, constantly looked at both Duan Ling Tian and Nangong Chen.
"Duan Ling Tian!" Huang Daniu looked at Duan Ling Tian. His face was filled with confidence as he said loudly, "If you can see Nangong Chen's Concept clearly, but Peak Master Cha Bai still insists that you're merely making wild guesses, you can look at mine next!"
The instance Huang Daniu's words left his mouth, Cha Bai's face changed immediately. Was this not like him trying to say that Cha Bai was deliberately accusing Duan Ling Tian?
"Let us wait till he manages to see through the Concept that Nangong Chen has comprehended first!" Cha Bai sneered.
Duan Ling Tian nodded and flashed a smile at Huang Daniu before he looked at Nangong Chen, "You may start now!"
Nangong Chen nodded his head.
The floor beneath his feet immediately trembled, and a khaki energy rose up from the surroundings of his body immediately. It emitted an intense and majestic aura.
"Alright, that's enough," Duan Ling Tian said.
When Nangong Chen heard this, he retracted the Earth Concept that had not mobilized the Heaven and Earth Energy yet.
"Congratulations! You've already comprehended the First Level Advance Earth Concept!" Duan Ling Tian congratulated Nangong Chen.
With his current Spiritual Energy, and his experience from the two reincarnations of the Rebirth Martial Emperor, he could easily discern someone's Concept Level as long as they let out their Concept aura. It was similar to how he could easily use his Spiritual Energy to probe at others' cultivation bases.
First Level Advance Earth concept!
The moment Duan Ling Tian's words left his mouth, the place instantly became deathly quiet.
Guo Chong, the Sect Leader of Five Element Sect, was the first one to react. His eyes shone brightly as he looked at Nangong Chen, "Chen'er, you…"
Before he could even finish his sentence, Nangong Chen's Earth Concept around his body had already risen. Khaki energy continued to soar up into the sky, all the way up to its limit.
Whoosh!
The Heaven and Earth Energy bubbled in the air. In just a second, it accumulated into a clear Heaven and Earth phenomenon. There was a total of 200 ancient horned dragons in the air.
He mobilized the Heaven and Earth Energy with just his Concept, and he managed to converge them into a total of 200 ancient horned dragons.
That was the sign of the First Level Void Transformation Concept!
"It's indeed the First Level Advance Earth Concept!"
"Senior Brother Chen is so powerful! He actually managed to rise up two levels and reached the First Level Advance Earth Concept in just one go after coming out from the Profound Assimilation Formation."
"With Senior Brother Chen's current strength, it's already horrifying enough even if he doesn't rely on Earth Energy. I wonder how ghastly his strength is if he borrows Earth Energy?"
…
After Tian Gu, the Peak Master of Earth Peak, cried out in astonishment, the group of young disciples behind him could not stop themselves from whispering to each other.
All of them had one similarity at the moment — all of them had a bewildered look on their faces.
"Haha! Well done!" Guo Chong could not suppress the laughter rising from his throat when he saw his own direct disciple managed to progress so much after coming out of the Profound Assimilation Formation.
Nangong Chen still looked cold as usual. However, Duan Ling Tian could see that there was a hint of astonishment in the depth of his eyes. It was apparent that Nangong Chen's inside was not as cold as he usually showed on the outside.
"Congratulations, Sect Leader," Tian Gu and Yu Fang congratulated Guo Chong with a smile on their faces.
"Sigh," Nangong Yi who was standing by the side could not help but let out a sigh after casting a glance at Nangong Chen.
Not only were the two of them twins, they were also born to be rivals. Since they were young, the both of them had always competed with each other. However, the number of his losses were more than his wins. It had always been like this. It was like a curse that was hard to break.
After shifting his gaze away from Nangong Chen to look at Cha Bai, Qi Yu, the Peak Master of Wood Peak asked with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, "Cha Bai, do you still think that Duan Ling Tian's merely making a wild guess?"
Although his voice was not particularly loud, it managed to enter everyone's ears. Everyone immediately shifted their attention to Cha Bai.
Cha Bai's face turned slightly glum instantly.
Did Duan Ling Tian really make a wild guess?
Initially, when Duan Ling Tian saw through the real Concept level that Nangong Yi had comprehended, he indeed felt that Duan Ling Tian was making a wild guess. However, he began to doubt himself now.
However, since things had developed to this point, how could he show his uncertainty just like that?
"Hurmph!" Cha Bai swept an indifferent glance at Qi Yu as he snorted, "Qi Yu, you're right! Even until now, I still think he's merely making wild guesses! It's not that difficult to get two correct!"
"How about three then?" Standing by the side, Huang Daniu who could no longer stand it, smirked as he looked at Cha Bai scornfully.
"We'll see after he manages to see through your Concept!" A chilly look flashed across Cha Bai's eyes. However, his face remained calm on the outside as he replied nonchalantly.
Without wasting any time, Huang Daniu looked towards Duan Ling Tian and immediately called out, "Duan Ling Tian!"
Duan Ling Tian nodded his head, but he did not ask Huang Daniu to demonstrate his Earth Concept immediately. Instead, he looked at Cha Bai and said coldly, "Peak Master Cha Bai, before I look at Daniu's Concept level, there's something I want to confirm. If I can really see through his Concept level, can I stop giving you any more 'explanation'?"
Duan Ling Tian greatly emphasized the word 'explanation'. There was no lack of sarcasm in his words.
"As long as you can see through the exact Concept level that Huang Daniu has comprehended after coming out from the Profound Assimilation Formation, you'll only need to look at one more Fire Peak disciple that I'll bring over later from Fire Peak. You don't have to give me any more explanation after that," Cha Bai's replied nonchalantly as a gleam flashed across his eyes.
"Very well," Duan Ling Tian nodded his head. "Since the Sect Leader is here as well, I'm sure a dignified Peak Master of Fire Peak like you would never try and lie to me."
"Hurmph!" Cha Bai snorted coldly. An icy gleam flashed across the depth of his eyes as if it was about to devour a certain somebody.
"Daniu, you may start now," Duan Ling Tian looked at Huang Daniu. Huang Daniu instantly demonstrated his Earth Concept in a timely manner. He demonstrated for a just a second before he immediately retracted it again.
The Heaven and Earth Energy was not mobilized at all, let alone forming a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon.
Just as Huang Daniu retracted his Earth Concept that was barely demonstrated, and everyone's eyes shifted towards Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ling Tian burst out laughing without any warning, "Haha! Daniu, you're really a monster!"
"W-What?" Huang Daniu's eyes lit up. Then, as if he was hit by a realization, he asked excitedly, "Don't tell me that I, Brother Niu, have really comprehended the Ninth Level Intermediate Earth Concept? If that's true, then I, Brother Niu, will be the first genius who has managed to raise my Concept three levels higher after coming out of the Profound Assimilation Formation!"
Before Huang Daniu entered the Profound Assimilation formation, it was no secret that he had only comprehended the Sixth Level Intermediate Earth Concept. Everyone present at the scene knew this well.
"Psst!" The moment Huang Daniu's words left his mouth, Cha Bai burst out laughing at instantly. "Three levels? Are you daydreaming now?"
When Huang Daniu was glaring at Cha Bai, Duan Ling Tian opened his mouth again, "Daniu, since somebody thinks that you're merely daydreaming, why don't you show him how you're going to turn this daydream into reality?! I'm curious as to what kind of expression he'll be wearing later."
"If he really has comprehended the Ninth Level Intermediate Earth Concept, then I won't bring another disciple from Fire Peak, and you, Duan Ling Tian, no longer have to explain!" Cha Bai smirked.
No matter what, he absolutely refused to believe that Huang Daniu would be able to elevate his Sixth Level Intermediate Earth Concept to the Ninth Level Intermediate Earth Concept just by entering the Profound Assimilation Formation one time.
"Alright, you're the one who said this yourself!" Upon hearing Cha Bai's words, Duan Ling Tian laughed before turning towards Huang Daniu, "Daniu, let Peak Master Cha Bai see your transformed Earth Concept clearly, shall we?"
"Haha! Alright!" Huang Daniu laughed loudly.
He had absolute faith in Duan Ling Tian. Since Duan Ling Tian said that he had comprehended the Ninth Level Intermediate Earth Concept, then he must have comprehended the Ninth Level Intermediate Earth Concept.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the khaki energy around Huang Daniu's body soared up immediately. It radiated waves and waves of vast and majestic aura that constantly rose up to the sky.
Whoosh!
The Heaven and Earth Energy whirled in the air before it finally converged into a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon with 100 ancient horned dragons.
"It really is the Ninth Level Intermediate Earth Concept!" Tian Gu exclaimed loudly in surprise.
At this moment, everybody, except Duan Ling Tian, Huang Daniu, and Qi Yu who appeared to be calm as if he had long believed the words that Duan Ling Tian said, was gaping in shock as they stared at the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon above Huang Daniu's head. It was like they had seen something that was incredibly amazing.
Cha Bai, the Peak Master of Fire Peak, was the first to speak, "H-How's this even p-possible?!"
Cha Bai kept shaking his head! He could not believe that this was real.
"Daniu, looks like you're the person who had snatched Hu Fei's good fortune from him in the Profound Assimilation Formation. That Hu Fei did not even get a cent from the Profound Assimilation Formation. But look at you! You actually managed to raise three levels of your Earth Concept!" Duan Ling Tian smiled a bright and brilliant smile.
Hu Fei, who was nearby, already had a glum look on his face. The instance he heard Duan Ling Tian's words, he was so agitated that he threw up another mouthful of blood.
