1680 Sun True Origin’s Power

If he could not even block the Territory, there was no need to fight anymore. This was because he would die in his opponent's Territory before he could even make his move. Naturally, this would only happen when the gap between the strength was too wide.

The sectless cultivators might not have thought like that if Duan Ling Tian had not been so young. However, Duan Ling Tian was just ridiculously young.

As the saying went, 'A man too young to grow a beard is not dependable.' These words were applicable to the current situation.

"Overestimated myself, huh?" A faint smile appeared on Duan Ling Tian's face when he heard Xu Ping, the Rising Sky Mansion's disciple's words.

Duan Ling Tian's expression did not change at all even though Xu Ping was charging at him with his Territory in tow.

Although his expression did not change, his body began to emit a burning hot aura as a dazzling golden True Origin surged out of his body.

10,000 Swords Territory!

At this instant, the area within a 100-meter radius of Duan Ling Tian transformed into a golden sea.

It seemed as though sunlight had enveloped him, it caused many people to instinctively shut their eyes. They gradually tried to open their eyes, but they ended up having to squint. This was because the golden light before them was too dazzling that their eyes could barely stand it.

"What kind of Territory is this?" Many people were baffled. This was their first time seeing such a Territory.

High in the sky, Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang's expressions turned grave immediately. This was also their first time seeing such a Territory.

In their eyes, they could barely see the figure shrouded in golden light. This shocked them greatly. "What a horrifying Territory!"

Although the Territory had not displayed its strength yet, its aura was enough to make their hearts jolt.

"What cultivation base does this young man have? To think he can actually consolidate such a powerful Territory!" Ren Zhong said in shock as he looked at Liu Hong Guang.

"He must have cultivated some secret technique that could conceal his cultivation base. Even we can't see through it at all... Originally, I thought I'll be able to judge his cultivation base based on his True Origin when he unleashes it. As it turns out, his True Origin is actually this peculiar. It seems like he's only at the Intermediate Pristine Saint Stage?" Liu Hong Guang said, baffled.

"You think so as well?" Ren Zhong was dumbfounded. Originally, he thought that he had sensed it wrongly. He could not believe Liu Hong Guang came to the same conclusion as him as well.

When Duan Ling Tian displayed his True Origin, he realized the aura of the True Origin was only the True Origin of an Intermediate Pristine Saint Stage if one judged it based on normal logic.

However, he also realized Duan Ling Tian's True Origin was not as simple as it seemed. Even he could not explain why he felt this way.

Particularly when Duan Ling Tian's True Origin formed his Territory in just a blink of an eye, surpassing the speed of his opponent. He was extremely shocked. "Impossible! It's impossible that it's the True Origin of an Intermediate Pristine Saint Stage powerhouse!"

What a joke!

How could the True Origin of an Intermediate Pristine Saint Stage powerhouse be able to form a Territory so quickly? It confounded them.

It felt as though the Territory was a vast golden ocean while the Rising Sky Mansion's disciple's Wind Blade Territory was just like papier mache that could barely withstand a blow.

Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang had lived for a very long time, but this was their first time witnessing such a peculiar scene.

"Who is he?" Both of them were bewildered.

Both of them had noticed that something was not right. It was only natural that Xu Cen, the Grand Elder of Rising Sky Mansion, had also noticed something was amiss. The moment he noticed it, his expression turned horrified, and he could not even transmit his voice in time. Instead, he shouted out loud, "Xu Ping, admit defeat now!"

The instant Xu Cen's words left his mouth, the entire scene broke into an uproar.

The Grand Elder of Rising Sky Mansion actually asked that Rising Sky Mansion's disciple to admit defeat?

Did he feel his disciple was not even comparable to a sectless cultivator who was not even forty years old?

Among the people present on the scene, only a few were able to faintly see the situation taking place inside the golden light that appeared in Duan Ling Tian's Territory.

Ren Zhong, Liu Hong Guang, and Xu Cen could see it. Apart from that, the Shrine Master of Pure Yang Shrine, the Abbott of Brahma Temple, and another leader of a fifth-rate force in the Rising Sky Mansion's district could faintly see what was happening.

As for the others, they could not see anything at all.

Perhaps, they would only be able to see once they enter the Territory.

Xu Cen had shouted instinctively when he realized he had underestimated that young sectless cultivator.

Earlier, he had thought the young sectless cultivator was seeking death. That was why he had asked Xu Ping to kill him. It did not cross his mind that the tide would change in just a blink of an eye. Although the opponent's True Origin was similar to that of an Intermediate Pristine Saint Stage powerhouse, its vibe after it formed the Territory felt more like an Intermediate Refined Saint Stage powerhouse.

It was precisely because of this he had lost his cool and shouted out loud. Unfortunately, his warning came too late.

How could an arrow that was released from the bowstring be retracted?

Together with his Wind Blade Territory, Xu Ping charged into the Golden Brilliance Territory that surrounded a 100-meter radius around Duan Ling Tian.

The five powerhouses present on the scene could clearly see the moment Xu Ping entered the Golden Brilliance Territory, solidified sword rays suddenly appeared. After these sword rays appeared, it seemed to have transformed the Golden Brilliance Territory into a world of swords.

As the figure in the middle of the Golden Brilliance Territory raised his hand and pointed a finger toward the sky —

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

…

10,000 ear-piercing sounds of sword whistling reverberated in the air.

"STOP!" At this moment, Xu Cen realized Xu Ping had no time to admit defeat, and he immediately shouted at Duan Ling Tian through Voice Transmission. This was his attempt to make Xu Ping realize the overwhelming odds against him. He could only resort to this when he found out Xu Ping was no match for Duan Ling Tian at all.

"Stop?" A sneer appeared on Duan Ling Tian's face. He could tell the voice belonged to Xu Cen. However, he had no intention of stopping at all. Instead, he only stared coldly at Xu Ping who had a panicked expression on his face.

Everything was almost over.

10,000 swords sliced through the sky and charged toward Xu Ping who entered Duan Ling Tian's Territory with his Wind Blade Territory in tow. The entire scene was chilling.

Unfortunately, only five people could faintly see what was happening inside.

As for the others, they merely heard 10,000 ear-piercing sounds of sword whistling in the air that that overwhelmed the sound of the wind blades slicing through the air.

However, when they heard Xu Cen shouting earlier, they could roughly guess what was going on inside.

"How's this possible?" Many people found this unbelievable. It was like a joke!

A sectless cultivator who was not even forty years old was stronger than the Rising Sky Mansion's disciples who was at the Early Refined Saint Stage?

Currently, Duan Ling Tian was no longer like the former him.

His cultivation base had already made a breakthrough to the Intermediate Pristine Saint Stage. Due to the fact that the True Origin in his body had been transformed by Elder Huo into the Sun True Origin, it was extremely domineering. It was almost equal to the True Origin of an ordinary Intermediate Refined Saint Stage Martial and Dao Cultivator.

The Territory formed by such a True Origin was almost on par with the techniques and Territory of an ordinary Intermediate Refined Saint Stage Martial and Dao Cultivator.

Since his opponent was merely an Early Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator, Duan Ling Tian did not use any other technique at all since there was no use for him to use any other technique. He merely used his True Origin against his opponent.

10,000 swords whizzed in the sky. Xu Ping and his Territory were completely annihilated. It was as though they had been vaporized by the sun. There was no trace of them at all.

Naturally, when Duan Ling Tian retracted his Territory, everybody present could faintly smell a burnt smell.

"Xu Ping's gone?" At this moment, apart from Xu Cen, the Grand Elder of the Rising Sky Mansion, who was staring furiously at Duan Ling Tian, the people from Rising Sky Mansion had a horrified expression on their faces and hints of confusion in their eyes.

Although they knew Xu Ping was no match for this sectless cultivator who was not even forty years old from the way the Grand Elder had lost his composure, they did not expect that Xu Ping would vanish without a trace after the sectless cultivator had retracted his Territory.

Silence.

The entire place was silent.

From the high-ranking officials such as Ren Zhong, Liu Hong Guang, and other people from the fourth-rate forces to the people from the lower forces and the sectless cultivators whose cultivation base was low and only came to watch the show, they were all staring dumbfounded at the aloof young man. They did not regain their senses for a long time.

A thought kept looping around in their minds. This sectless cultivator was not even forty years old yet.

Although he was not forty years old yet, he managed to instantly kill an Early Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator. Not only that, he did not even leave a trace of his opponent's body behind.

The only thing that remained behind was a Spatial Ring that was falling down.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian took the Spatial Ring. This was his war trophy. It did not belong to anyone else.

"I can't believe that the 10,000 Swords Territory that's consolidated by the Sun True Origin is so tyrannical. Moreover, there seems to be a layer of golden light along the edge of the Territory that conceals what's happening inside. If I'm not mistaken, those with a lower cultivation base would not be able to see what's happening inside." This was the first time Duan Ling Tian used his 10,000 Swords Territory after he had broken through to the Pristine Saint Stage and obtained the Sun True Origin.

The outcome was completely beyond his expectation. When he was controlling the 10,000 swords attack in the 10,000 Swords Territory, he noticed the 10,000 swords seemed to have a trace of Sun's Flame on them. Although the Sun's Flame could not be compared to Elder Huo's Flame of Sun, it was still a pure Sun's Flame.

Faced with the 10,000 swords attack that had the Sun's Flame, Xu Ping whose strength was originally inferior to Duan Ling Tian had completely been vaporized.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was shocked as well.

Although he had heard from Elder Huo about how powerful the Sun True Origin was, he was still stunned when he saw how domineering the force of the Sun True Origin was.
