Since the Soul Pearls of the Great Overarching Golden Celestials younger than 100 years old from the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland were still intact, it meant they were still alive even if they were injured.
At this moment, the high-ranking officials from the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect and the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect were all looking at the Soul Pearls near Bai Ping, the Sect Leader of Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
“The Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s Great Overarching Golden Celestials and their Chief Celestial Alchemist, Duan Ling Tian, are still alive…”
There were two Soul Pearls on Bai Ping’s left, and one on his left. The two Soul Pearls on his right belonged to the two Great Overarching Golden Celestials younger than 100 years old who had joined the Tai Yi Celestial Sect after the Wasteland Grand Contest, and the Soul Pearl on his left belonged to Duan Ling Tian.
“As Great Overarching Golden Celestials, they’re, naturally, stronger than Violet Sun Golden Celestials… Just because the Violet Sun Golden Celestials couldn’t survive in there doesn’t mean that the Great Overarching Golden Celestials wouldn’t…”
“That’s right… The strength of a Violet Sun Golden Celestial is not comparable to the strength of a Great Overarching Golden Celestial… Places where Great Overarching Golden Celestials may go freely might be places that can kill Violet Sun Golden Celestials!”
“Yes. Although almost all of the Violet Sun Golden Celestials we’d sent in are dead, it’s likely that the Little World poses no threat to the Great Overarching Golden Celestials.”
“I wonder how many treasures they’ve found in there?”
After bitterly accepting the fact that almost all the Violet Sun Golden Celestials who had entered the Little World were dead, the high-ranking officials of the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland began to look forward to the Great Overarching Golden Celestials’ harvest in the Little World. At this moment, they had placed all their hopes on the Great Overarching Golden Celestials.
…
Inside the Little World…
The tranquility of a mountain range was marred by an explosion. Flames raged everywhere as though the mountains were volcanoes. The originally green mountain was scorched. All that was left were flames and the smell of smoke permeating the air.
“Thank you.” Above the mountain range that was burning red, an expressionless black-clad young man thanked a beautiful woman. A hint of lingering fear could be seen in his eyes at this moment.
The woman wore a thin white robe. Her face looked as though it was personally sculpted by God himself. Every man would be enchanted by her when they first looked at her. She looked seductive, but at the same time, there was a hint of innocence on her face that made her look like a naive young girl. This combination made her look even more attractive. She remained indifferent to the black-clad young man’s gratitude. In just a flash, she returned to the side of a purple-clad young man. “Don’t thank me… If you must thank someone, thank Brother Ling Tian. He’s the one who asked me to save you.”
Upon hearing the white-clad woman’s words, the black-clad young man shifted his gaze to the purple-clad young man. A hint of gratitude and determination could be seen in his eyes despite the blank expression on his face as he said, “Duan Ling Tian, I owe you a debt of gratitude… If I, Feng Wu Ji Guang, survive this, I’ll definitely repay you!” As soon as he finished speaking, he prepared to leave without waiting for the purple-clad young man’s response.
The purple-clad young man was none other than Duan Ling Tian. Seeing Feng Wu Ji Guang was about to leave, he quickly said, “If you want to make it out of the Little World alive, it’s best if you follow us. This Little World…”
“I appreciate your reminder.” Despite his words, Feng Wu Ji Guang merely paused briefly when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. He did not even give Duan Ling Tian a chance to finish his words before he flew away. In just a blink of an eye, he disappeared before Duan Ling Tian’s eyes. It was not because his speed was too fast for Duan Ling Tian, but he had disappeared because he had activated the transporting Formation in the Little World that would send him to a random place in the Little World. With this, it would be difficult for Duan Ling Tiant to find him.
“He’s gone?” Duan Ling Tian’s expression turned grave when he saw Feng Wu Ji Guang had left before he could even finish speaking. At this moment, he knew it was impossible for Feng Wu Ji Guang to make it out of the Little World alive.
“Brother Ling Tian, our effort is wasted on him,” Huan’er said with a frown.
“We did what we could, the rest is on him… Since we ran into him, we can’t just watch as he dies. As for what he wants to do, it’s not something we can dictate,” Duan Ling Tian shook his head and said, “Even if we want to save him now, we won’t be able to find him so easily.”
Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er had arrived the moment the mountain range exploded. They saw Feng Wu Ji Guang and the other five Violet Sun Golden Celestials in danger. However, they had arrived a little too late. They could not save the other five Violet Sun Golden Celestials. They only managed to save Feng Wu Ji Guang who was standing the closest to them. The other five were swallowed by the fire.
The fire had the force of a yellow-rank Great Overarching Golden Celestial. Therefore, it was impossible for Feng Wu Ji Guang and the five Violet Sun Golden Celestials to defend against it.
Duan Ling Tian had thought Feng Wu Ji Guang would follow him and Huan’er after they had saved him. In that case, Feng Wu Ji Guang would have a chance to leave this place alive. Although he did not know Feng Wu Ji Guang well, there was no animosity between them. Since they ran into each other, he was willing to help Feng Wu Ji Guang to leave this place alive. Who knew Feng Wu Ji Guang would leave before he could divulge important information about the Little World?
“En.” Huan’er nodded after hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words. However, it was not certain if she understood his words.
Shortly after, Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er activated the transporting Formation and left as well.
When they reappeared, they found themselves in a seemingly boundless desert that was being plagued by a flurry of sandstorms at this moment. The weakest of the sandstorm had the force of an Indigo Sun Golden Celestial while the strongest ones had a force equivalent to a yellow-rank Great Overarching Golden Celestial. Naturally, these sandstorms posed no danger to Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er.
Duan Ling Tian lifted his arm and retrieved the Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, the Mystical Yang Nine Water Chestnut Ring. He sighed in disappointment and put it away when he saw that it remained unresponsive. “Still no reaction… As it turns out, it’s not easy to find the Mystical Yin Nine Water Chestnut Ring.”
“Brother Ling Tian, a big guy is hiding underneath the desert.” Huan’er’s voice rang in the air just as Duan Ling Tian put the Mystical Yang Nine Water Chestnut Ring away.
“A big guy?” Duan Ling Tian was slightly taken aback.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
A gust of cold wind blew out as Huan’er attacked. It was as though there were thousands of ice dragons charging out before they pierced the ground.
The desert fell silent.
After three breaths…
The ground began to quake and rumble.
Duan Ling Tian saw the sand stirring beneath him as though there was a powerful earthquake.
At the same time, an angry howl reverberated in the air from under the desert.
“Here it comes!” Huan’er said. Her eyes were focused on the quaking ground. “Brother Ling Tian, be careful. The big guy has the strength of an earth-rank Great Overarching Golden Celestial like you…”
“Earth-rank Great Overarching Golden Celestial?” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes brightened when he heard Huan’er’s words. Up until now, the strongest opponent they faced was only comparable to a yellow-rank Great Overarching Golden Celestial. It was easy for him to deal with such an opponent without even breaking a sweat.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, a series of loud noises thundered in the air. It was as though a giant was walking.
Duan Ling Tian saw a gigantic stone man that seemed to be made from black and shiny stones. Its eyes were red. A hint of intelligence could be seen in its eyes as though it was sentient despite its appearance.
Roar!
The stone man roared as it looked up at Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er who were hovering in the sky.
