Chapter 937: Third Level Void Interpretation Concept?!
Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"Amitabha… Congratulations, Little Benefactor Duan." Under the watchful eyes of the others, Hui Kong, the Abbot of Empyrean Temple, slowly lifted his hand up and threw four fragments at Duan Ling Tian.
"Ninth Level Concept Fragments!" Although they were already mentally prepared, the instance they witnessed the four Ninth Level Concept Fragments falling into Duan Ling Tian's hands, many of the people present still could not suppress the shock that rose up in their hearts as they became consumed with envy.
Those were Ninth Level Concept Fragments after all!
Even in the respective sects they were in, there were only a few pieces in their hands.
However, right now, Duan Ling Tian, just this one young disciple from Five Element Sect, had monopolized four Ninth Level Concept Fragments. Even many of the high officials from the major sects could not help but be consumed by envy and jealousy as well.
Duan Ling Tian took the four Ninth Level Concept Fragments and placed them into his Spatial Ring one by one while he thanked Hui Kong, the Empyrean Temple's Abbot, "Thank you, Master Hui Kong."
"You're too polite, Little Benefactor Duan. I didn't do much," Hui Kong replied indifferently.
Duan Ling Tian nodded his head before narrowing his eyes at Chen Feng, the Sect Leader of Sun Moon Sect. His face was ashen. With a smile, Duan Ling Tian said, "Sect Leader Chen Feng, thank you for your two Ninth Level Concept Fragments!"
Chen Feng's originally pale face darkened instantly as he snorted. "Duan Ling Tian, what can you do even if you have that two Ninth Level Concept Fragments? You'll only be considered capable if you can retain that two fragments. Otherwise, you'll only be carving a path for someone else!"
The instance Chen Feng's words left his mouth, many disciples' eyes from the Empyrean Temple, Blade Sect and Sun Moon Sect lit up immediately.
Indeed.
Would they not be able to snatch the four Ninth Level Concept Fragments in Duan Ling Tian's hands after they entered the Martial Emperor's secret treasure?
Naturally, there were more people who had these thoughts in their minds, but their intentions were crushed ruthlessly by him.
What a joke!
After all, one would need to be capable enough before one could even hope to snatch the Ninth Level Concept Fragments from Duan Ling Tian's hand.
Otherwise, it would only be a one way ticket to hell.
The scene of Duan Ling Tian punching the Ninth Level Void Interpretation martial artist who had comprehended the Ninth Level Void Interpretation Concept to death earlier was deeply seared into their minds. It would not disappear for a very long time.
However, there were four Ninth Level Concept Fragments on Duan Ling Tian. If four people joined forces to kill him, each of them would be able to get one Ninth Level Concept Fragment each.
The moment Chen Feng's words left his mouth, the restlessness from the three major forces' disciples — other than Five Element Sect — did not escape Duan Ling Tian's eyes. However, he did not feel disturbed by it at all.
"Thank you for your concern, Sect Leader Chen Feng," Duan Ling Tian replied Chen Feng casually before he cast a glance at the group of disciples from the three major forces who were looking at him like he was a prey. "I'd love to get closer to anyone who really wants to obtain the four Ninth Level Concept Fragments in my hands!"
A dazzling and confident smile appeared on Duan Ling Tian's face.
Upon hearing his words and seeing the confident smile on his face, many of the young disciples immediately dismissed the idea of going against Duan Ling Tian to snatch the four Ninth Level Concept Fragments.
Naturally, there were many exceptions as well.
After all, the temptation of these four Ninth Level Concept Fragments was just too huge. Even if they already knew Duan Ling Tian had a remarkable strength, they still wanted to give it a try.
As the saying went, 'How can you catch the tiger cub if you don't enter the tiger's lair?'
Under the watchful eyes of the others, Duan Ling Tian once again went to stand with Feng Tian Wu, Su Li, and Zhang Shou Yong. At the same time, he also asked the three of them to move toward the group of people from Five Element Sect.
Duan Ling Tian then introduced the three of them to Guo Chong, Qi Yu, Huang Daniu and Chen Wei, and vice versa.
"Sect Leader Guo, Peak Master Qi," Feng Tian Wu and the other two greeted Guo Chong and Qi Yu politely while they nodded at Huang Daniu and Chen Wei with a smile.
"Prior to this, I've never heard Duan Ling Tian mention anything about knowing such an extraordinary genius like you, Miss Feng. From what I can see, your strength is in no way inferior to Duan Ling Tian's, right?" Qi Yu asked with a twinkling smile in his eyes as he stared intensely at Feng Tian Wu.
"You flatter me, Peak Master Qi. How can I possibly be better than Big Brother Duan?" Feng Tian Wu replied quickly and modestly.
"Tian Wu, don't be so modest. Previously when that Lian Xiong was attacking me, even I wouldn't be able to respond in time to your speed if I didn't prepare beforehand." Duan Ling Tian shook his head.
The strength that Feng Tian Wu demonstrated at that time had also taken him by surprise.
Unfortunately, by the time he regained his senses, Feng Tian Wu had already retracted her Origin Energy and Fire Concept, leaving no chance for him to probe her using his Spiritual Energy.
However, he was certain that the strength that Feng Tian Wu currently possessed was in no way inferior to him.
He felt a jolt in his heart as his Spiritual Energy stretched out instantly and swept towards Feng Tian Wu. He was trying to investigate her strength.
In the next instance, he immediately figured out Feng Tian Wu's cultivation base.
Ignorance was bliss. The moment Duan Ling Tian figured it out, he was so shocked that he was left speechless for quite a while. His mind went completely blank, and he stood there for a long time as though he was possessed.
In the next second, he muttered to himself inaudibly, "H-How's this possible?! T-Tian Wu's only at the Third Level Void Interpretation?!"
From Duan Ling Tian's Spiritual Energy's investigation, Feng Tian Wu's cultivation base was not even a step in the Fourth Level Void Interpretation. It was only at the Third Level Void Interpretation.
Just a mere Third Level Void Interpretation martial artist and yet she could help him block Lian Xiong's attack?
He instantly became a little doubtful
However, the moment he remembered the scene where Feng Tian Wu crippled Lian Xiong, the disciple of Blade Sect's arm, he could not help but feel shaken for a while. "Lian Xiong is an Eight Level Void Interpretation martial artist who has comprehended the Eighth Level Intermediate Sword Concept. That means that Tian Wu's strength is definitely better than his if she could sever his arm before he could react in time! S-Still, Tian Wu is indeed only a Third Level Void Interpretation martial artist. Could it be that the Concept that Tian Wu comprehended is the Fire Concept?" The moment Duan Ling Tian thought of this, he immediately knew he had his answer.
Feng Tian Wu had a Fire Spirit Body. The speed that she comprehended the Fire Concept could be considered as very fast.
Basically, she would not encounter any bottleneck in the process of comprehending the Fire Concept. Apart from that, if she had some assistance from Fire Concept Fragments, the speed that she comprehended the Fire Concept would leave all martial artists who did not possess the Fire Spirit Body blushing in shame.
'B-But, even if she has the Fire Concept Fragment for her cultivation, she shouldn't have been able to win against Lian Xiong with just her Third Level Void Interpretation right?' Duan Ling Tian became more perplexed as he pondered over it.
Lian Xiong was an Eighth Level Void Interpretation martial artist who had comprehended the Eight Level Intermediate Sword Concept. With the help of the spirit saber, his strength was equivalent to the strength of over 270 ancient horned dragons.
With Tian Wu's Third Level Void Interpretation cultivation base, even if she used the Grade Three Spirit Whip that he had refined for her, the most she could demonstrate was the strength of 68 ancient horned dragons.
A Third Level Void Interpretation martial artist had a strength of 40 ancient horned dragons if all the Origin Energy in the body was unleashed.
The Grade Three Spirit Whip that he personally refined gave a 70% boost. That was equivalent to the strength of 28 ancient horned dragons.
The two of them added up together would be the strength of exactly 68 ancient horned dragons!
'In other words, even if Tian Wu has comprehended the first Level Advance Fire Concept, along with the strength of 68 ancient horned dragons, her strength would still only be at about 268 ancient horned dragons. It's still a far cry from Lian Xiong's strength! Well, unless she has comprehended the Second Level Advance Fire Concept. In that case, she would have a strength of 368 ancient horned dragons if she unleashes all of her strength. That would be enough for her to beat Lian Xiong!' Duan Ling Tian's mind was whirring rapidly as he tried to make sense of the information in his mind.
While he was still mulling over the information in his head, he suddenly gasped. "It would still be impossible for Tian Wu to elevate her Fire Concept to such a level in such a short period of time even if she had the Fire Concept Fragment to aid her. Hmm, in that case, the only plausible explanation is the Profound Assimilation Formation!"
Blade Sect had the Profound Assimilation Formation as well.
If it was the Profound Assimilation Formation that allowed Feng Tian Wu to go through such a transformation, then all of these would not be so surprising anymore.
"The Profound Assimilation Formation is the Inscription Formation that was created by the Rebirth Martial Emperor. For an innate spirit body like Tian Wu's Fire Spirit Body, it would have an extraordinary effect compared to ordinary people." After going through the Rebirth Martial Emperor's memory, Duan Ling Tian very quickly found the reason.
Not only that, based on the Rebirth Martial Emperor's judgment, the Profound Assimilation Formation would tremendously elevate an innate spirit body that was far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. "That's to say, there's a possibility that Tian Wu's Fire Concept is not as simple as being at the Third Level Advance stage!"
The instance he muttered this sentence to himself, Duan Ling Tian discreetly gasped.
"Duan Ling Tian, I never thought that you knew such an exceptional stunning beauty like Miss Feng. This is amazing!" A voice entered Duan Ling Tian's ears and woke him from his daze. It was none other than Huang Daniu who was talking to him.
Rolling his eyes at Huang Daniu, Duan Ling Tian scoffed as he answered, "Could it be that you thought everybody I know is a big blockhead like you?"
Apart from Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu, the other people standing close by, including Guo Chong and Qi Yu, could not suppress the laughter boiling up from their chests.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
All of a sudden, the sound of a gust of faint wind whistling resonated from afar and converged into two gusts without any warning.
Upon hearing the noise, the four major sects present on the scene immediately looked toward the source with their eyes alert.
With just a glance, they could see two groups of people making their way toward them with great strength and vigor. In just a short while, they had already arrived and came to a halt at once.
"It's the Skywolf Fort people!"
"And the Emotion Severing people as well!"
Many of Blade Sect's and Empyrean Temple's disciples immediately called out in a low voice.
As two of the four major forces in the southern district of the northern desert, Blade Sect and the Empyrean Temple had a more profound understanding of Skywolf Fort and Emotion Severing Sect than Five Element Sect who came from the eastern district of the northern desert and Sun Moon Sect who came from the western district of the northern desert.
"Skywolf Fort!" Long before the Skywolf Fort's people appeared, Duan Ling Tian's gaze had already locked on four out of five people who were leading the group — three old men and one middle-aged man.
Meng Li, Ning Can, Yu Kang, and Feng Wei.
These four people were part of the five Vice Fort Masters. They were also the people who chased him and tried to kill him when he was making his way to the Blade Sect camp from the Ancient Desert City with a group of Blade Sect's people previously.
