The Boar Devil thought he had heard wrongly so he asked, "Sir, may I know what is it you want to ask?" Was there a need to inquire about the current state of the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land?
"I don't want to repeat myself," Duan Ling Tian said with a slight frown on his face. His eyes flashed with impatience when he saw the Boar Devil looking at him skeptically.
"Yes, yes!" The Boar Devil was so frightened when he saw the impatience in Duan Ling Tian's eyes. He quickly revealed the current state of the Upper Province of Dao Martial Saint Land.
"Both the southern region and the northern region in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land have been taken over by the Devil Clans?"
"The Devil Clans haven't been able to take over the western and eastern regions because of the phoenix and dragon clans respectively. Currently, the central region of the Upper Province has become the main battlefield for the Devil Clans from the Land of Exile and the humans from Saint Province Realm..."
Through the Boar Devil, Duan Ling Tian had a rough understanding of the state in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land.
"The strongest existence in the Devil Clans is an Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial? Both the Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestials from the dragon and phoenix clan and the Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial in the Devil Clan fought to a draw?" Duan Ling Tian muttered under his breath. After thinking about it for a moment, he thought to himself, 'This shouldn't be the extent of the Devil Clans' strength.'
Although it was said that the Devil Clans did not have any Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, it might not be the case.
After a while, Duan Ling Tian looked at the Boar Devil who was kneeling before him and said nonchalantly, "Since you're pretty cooperative, you can f*ck off now!" To him, the Boar Devil was nothing more than an insignificant existence in the Devil Clans. It did not matter to him if he killed the Boar Devil or not.
"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!" The Boar Devil thanked Duan Ling Tian joyfully and quickly rushed out of the great hall and left the snow-capped mountain.
After the Board Devil left, Duan Ling Tian rose to his feet. His eyes flashed with fury as he said, "Now, I'll go to the dragon clan and settle our old scores!" He would never forget the deaths of two successors in the Seven Absolutes Sect that was caused by the dragon clan.
The dragon clan had killed Gu Li, the successor of the Kratos Progeny, the third Absolute, and Yue Wu Ying, the successor of the Dark Shadow Progeny, the fourth Absolute.
In just a blink of an eye, Duan Ling Tian left the hall. He stared at the sky as he murmured, "Senior Brother Gu Li, if you're watching from heaven, please watch carefully as I seek revenge from the dragon clan for you!"
"San Dao." Duan Ling Tian beckoned Chen Yi Ru who had just exited the great hall after he regained his senses.
"Master," Chen Yi Ru replied respectfully.
Duan Ling Tian said, "From now on, you're free. There's no need for you to follow me."
Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian's words, Chen Yi Ru became anxious. "Master! Did I do something that's not to your liking? Please let me know so I won't repeat my mistake."
"Don't misunderstand my words," Duan Ling Tian shook his head and explained with a faint smile, "What I mean is we're no longer master and slave. You may choose to stay or leave the Seven Absolutes Sect. It's up to you"
Chen Yi Ru had been faithful in serving Duan Ling Tian for quite a period of time, and he was extremely satisfied with Chen Yi Ru. For this reason, he decided to release Chen Yi Ru from his promise.
"I'm sorry for misunderstanding you." Chen Yi Ru realized that he had misunderstood Duan Ling Tian's meaning. He continued to say, "Thank you for your grace, master. However, I'm willing to follow you."
Duan Ling Tian said decisively, "Well, in any case, you're free from today onward!"
"I'll stay in the Seven Absolutes Sect as a guardian!" Chen Yi Ru said determinedly.
Duan Ling Tian smiled faintly. "The Seven Absolutes Sect welcomes you!"
…
Soon after, Duan Ling Tian informed the other members of the Seven Absolutes Sect about the matter.
"Welcome, Guardian Chen!"
"Welcome, Guardian Chen!"
The members of Seven Absolutes Sect led by the Old Prophet welcomed Chen Yi Ru who was a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. Chen Yi Ru joining the sect would only make the sect stronger. Previously, he was not a member of the Seven Absolutes Sect even though he followed Duan Ling Tian and followed Duan Ling Tian's orders. If Duan Ling Tian ascended to a Devata Realm, he would have left the sect. However, now that he became a guardian of the Seven Absolutes Sect, he would stay in the Seven Absolutes Sect whether or not Duan Ling Tian was around.
After this matter was dealt with, Duan Ling Tian went to look for Ke'er to inform her about his intention to seek revenge from the dragon clan. "Ke'er, I'm planning to head to the dragon clan."
Ke'er said without any hesitation, "Brother Tian, I'll come with you."
"There's no need for that." Duan Ling Tian shook his head as a faint smile appeared on his face. "With my current cultivation, I'm not afraid even if the dragon clan has a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial! Moreover, don't you have the jade token I've given you? If I need your help, I'll notify you through the jade token so don't worry. With your current strength, it'll only take you a couple of dozens of breaths to travel across half of the Upper Province. Furthermore, you can protect Si Ling and the others if you stay here. With you around, I don't have to worry about their safety."
After listening to Duan Ling Tian's words, she knew she could insist on going to the dragon clan with Duan Ling Tian. She said solemnly, "Brother Tian, if you encounter any problem, you must notify me immediately." Although Ke'er knew no one in the Upper Province should be able to threaten Duan Ling Tian's safety, she still could not help but worry. She was afraid harm would befall him. She had determinedly improved her strength because of her strong desire to help him after all. She did not want to be a useless person by his side.
"I will." Duan Ling Tian immediately agreed. He then added, "Please inform Tian Wu about this on my behalf. I think my trip to the dragon clan won't take long, providing there are no unseen circumstances."
"Okay." Ke'er nodded. She had always been very meek and obedient when faced with Duan Ling Tian.
After Duan Ling Tian bade farewell to Ke'er, he left the Seven Absolutes Sect's temporary estate that was located on a nameless snow-capped mountain. He quickly left the northern region and made his way to the eastern region of the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. As soon as he arrived in the eastern region, he instantly made his way to the dragon clan. Soon after, he arrived at the 100,000 Towering Mountains where the dragon clan was located.
"So this is the 100,000 Towering Mountains where the dragon clan's estate is located?" With Duan Ling Tian's current strength, he easily dealt with the Misty Illusory Formation shrouding the dragon clan's estate. In fact, there was no need for him to destroy the Formation, he could easily bypass the Formation if he wanted to.
Swoosh!
Duan Ling Tian stood on a sword as he made his way swiftly into the dragon clan's estate, leaving rainbow-like light in his wake.
…
At the same time, the members of the dragon clan were alerted to the presence of an intruder.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
"Based on the thunderous sounds, I can feel how terrifying the intruder is! Is it a powerhouse from the Devil Clans?"
"Who has the audacity to trespass onto the grounds of our dragon clan's estate?"
As chaos descended on the dragon clan, Duan Ling Tian's voice resounded thunderously in every nook and cranny in the dragon clan's estate. "I'm Duan Ling Tian, the Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect. I came to the dragon clan to seek revenge from the culprit responsible for the deaths of my sect's members, Gu Li and Yue Wu Ying! If you don't hand the culprit over to me today, I'll annihilate the dragon clan!"
The entire dragon clan's estate fell silent immediately.
Duan Ling Tian? The Sect Leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect personally came? Moreover, he had boldly announced that he had come to seek revenge, and if the dragon refused to hand the culprit over, he would annihilate the dragon clan?
A hint of surprise could be seen on the face of a member of the dragon clan as he said skeptically, "D-did I hear correctly? Duan Ling Tian, the Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect, said he'll annihilate our dragon clan?"
"You heard correctly. He said if we don't hand over the culprit responsible for the deaths of the two members from his sect, Gu Li and Yue Wu Ying, he'll annihilate our dragon clan!"
"He's crazy! Crazy! The Sect Leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect is insane! Who does he think he is? He thinks he can destroy our dragon clan?"
"The Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect is seeking death!"
When the members of the dragon clan regained their senses, they erupted in anger. All of them thought Duan Ling Tian was courting death!
