In the Devata Realms, there was a huge gap between Duke Grade and King Grade Celestial Weapons, Celestial Methods, and Divine Abilities. Similar to the Heaven Grade, the Earth Grade, the Profound Grade, and the Yellow Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities, Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities were divided into many types.
However, the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities at and above the King Grade were not divided into offensive, defensive, movement, assistive, or a combination of the four types. The Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities at and above the King Grade revolved around the law. The comprehension and laws in these Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities were ever-changing. The same law could be used to boost one’s offenses, defenses, and speed at the same time. It was also for this reason that King Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities or those of a higher grade were so precious even if they were the same grade as a King Grade cultivation method. Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities that were of a lower grade than the King Grade such as Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities were far inferior to cultivation methods at the Duke Grade or lower.
‘It seems like the deputy patriarch is truly happy to obtain the Royal Grade Celestial Celestial Sword… After all, he doesn’t have many Memory Celestial Talismans that contained King Grade Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities,’ Bai Gang thought to himself.
Although the Memory Celestial Talismans that contained King Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities could only be used once, it was far more difficult to craft compared to ordinary Memory Celestial Talismans that could be used over and over again. This was because to craft a Memory Celestial Talisman capable of recording King Grade Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities, one must first understand the laws of said Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities to a certain extent. Otherwise, it would be impossible to craft the Memory Celestial Talisman. Apart from that, it took a lot of energy to craft a Memory Celestial Talisman. If it were not necessary, no one would craft the talismans. Therefore, these Memory Celestial Talismans that could record King Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities or those of a higher grade were rare and expensive.
As far as Bai Gang knew, in the Flying Tiger Clan’s branch in the Profound Nether Mansion, there was only one person capable of crafting Celestial Talismans capable of recording King Grade Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities or those of a higher grade. That person was none other than the Patriarch of the Flying Tiger Clan’s branch in the Profound Nether Mansion.
“Earth-type King Grade Celestial Method…” When Bai Zhen Yue, the Deputy Patriarch of the Flying Tiger Clan’s branch in the Profound Nether Mansion, mentioned the earth-type King Grade Celestial Method, Duan Ling Tian instantly recalled the Profound Divine Metal and the Chaos Divine Flame’s words from the past.
The Profound Divine Metal had said that as long as he obtained a metal-type King Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability, after it entered the third form, it would be able to help him quickly comprehend and master the law of metal in said Celestial Method or Divine Ability.
Similarly, the Chaos Divine Flame had also said that as long he obtained a fire-type King Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability, it would be able to help him quickly comprehend and master the law of fire.
Due to these reasons, Duan Ling Tian was undoubtedly certain that the third-form Chaos Divine Earth was able to help him quickly comprehend and master the law of earth in an earth-type King Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability. Moreover, the Chaos Divine Earth had also spoken up, confirming his thoughts. Therefore, his heartbeat had accelerated when he heard Bai Zhen Yue mentioning the earth-type King Grade Celestial Method.
“A King Grade Divine Ability and a King Grade Celestial Method?” Huang Jia Long was shocked by Bai Zhen Yue’s generosity as well. When he returned to his senses after a long time, he quickly turned to look at Duan Ling Tian and said, “Brother Duan, please go ahead and pick first…”
Despite his words, Huang Jia Long inwardly hoped he would be able to obtain the wind-type Divine Ability. In comparison to the laws of earth, the laws of wind were much better in terms of offensive strength. The laws of earth were much better in terms of defense and assistive strength.
In Huang Jia Long’s opinion, Duan Ling Tian would most likely want the wind-type King Grade Divine Ability that contained the law of wind like him. Therefore, he decided to cede the wind-type Divine Ability to Duan Ling Tian by letting Duan Ling Tian have the first pick.
“Me?” Duan Ling Tian was slightly taken aback when he heard Huang Jia Long’s words. However, he did not refuse Huang Jia Long. He turned to look at Bai Zhen Yue immediately.
Upon seeing this, Huang Jia Long sighed inwardly. It was as he had expected. Duan Ling Tian must have wanted the wind-type King Grade Divine Ability as well. Otherwise, Duan Ling Tian would have refused his offer.
At this moment, everyone else present shared Huang Jia Long’s thoughts as well.
However, Duan Ling Tian’s subsequent words to Bai Zhen Yue left Huang Jia Long and everyone dumbfounded.
Duan Ling Tian said loudly, “Senior, I want the earth-type King Grade Celestial Method.” He did not reject Huang Jia Long’s offer to let him pick first because he really wanted the earth-type Celestial Method. After all, now that he had the Chaos Divine Earth in his body, it could help him quickly comprehend and master the law of earth contained in this Celestial Method.
“Brother Duan, there’s no need for you to do this…” Huang Jia Long said with a wry smile. At the same time, he felt slightly ashamed for assuming that Duan Ling Tian was so eager to pick first because Duan Ling Tian wanted to get his hands on the wind-type King Grade Divine Ability. It was clear to him now that Duan Ling Tian did not refuse the offer because Duan Ling Tian had long made up his mind to give him the wind-type King Grade Divine Ability by choosing the earth-type King Grade Celestial Method.
Everyone present on the scene shared Huang Jia Long’s thoughts as well. They assumed Duan Ling Tian had deliberately chosen the earth-type King Grade Celestial Method so Huang Jia Long could have the wind-type King Grade Divine Ability.
“Lad, are you sure?” Bai Zhen Yue looked at Duan Ling Tian meaningfully and asked. Then, he said, “Although there’s a possibility that earth-type Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities may have offensive laws of earth, most of the laws of earth in earth-type Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities are defensive or assistive laws of earth. Moreover, I can tell you that the law of earth in my earth-type King Grade Celestial Method is an assistive one.”
At this moment, the childish voice of the Chaos Divine Earth rang in Duan Ling Tian’s mind. It scoffed before it said, “These people are looking down on the laws of earth, huh? Although only a small number of the laws of earth are of the offensive type, the offensive laws of earth are definitely one of the superior ones among offensive laws!” It was clearly angered by the perceived slight from Bai Zhen Yue, Huang Jia Long, and the others.
The Chaos Divine Metal continued to say, “Furthermore, the laws of earth is the orthodox law of the five elements. The five elements don’t include special laws such as the law of time and space, the law of devouring, and the law of destruction or natural laws derived from the five elements such as the law of wind, the law of thunder, and the law of ice. In any case, the laws of earth are the best in terms of defense… What’s the use of a powerful offense without a strong defense?”
Duan Ling Tian looked at Bai Zhen Yue and solemnly said, “I’m certain that I want that earth-type King Grade Celestial Method.”
After listening to the Chaos Divine Earth’s words, Duan Ling Tian finally figured out why Huang Jia Long and the others wore such an expression on their faces when they heard him choosing the earth-type Celestial Method.
As it turned out, most people in Devata Realms preferred offensive laws such as the laws of wind. Most people who had not comprehended or mastered any law would rather choose an offensive law such as the laws of wind given a choice.
If it were not for the Chaos Divine Earth in his body, perhaps, Duan Ling Tian might have made the same choice as the others as well. However, since he had the Chaos Divine Earth in his body, it was clear that the earth-type King Grade Celestial Method was the best choice for him.
“Brother Duan, you don’t have to do this for me…” Huang Jia Long said with a wry smile again.
“Jia Long, you’ve misunderstood. I really want the earth-type King Grade Celestial Method.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head. He, naturally, knew that unless he revealed the Chaos Divine Earth and its words, Huang Jia Long would not believe him and only think that he was being courteous by selecting the earth-type King Grade Celestial Method. Although he could not reveal anything about the Chaos Divine Earth, he still wanted to be honest.
…
After Duan Ling Tian obtained the earth-type King Grade Celestial Method from Bai Zhen Yue, he discovered the Celestial Method was called the Black Rock Prison Method.
Crack!
After Duan Ling Tian crushed the Memory Celestial Talisman that contained the earth-type King Grade Celestial Method, the Black Rock Prison Method, a stream of information about the Celestial Method instantly rushed into his mind.
At the same time, the childish voice of the Chaos Divine Earth resounded in Duan Ling Tian’s mind as well. “This King Grade Celestial Method can help you comprehend the Earth Elemental Profundity and the Gravitational Space Profundity in the law of earth. The Earth Elemental Profundity is the basic Profundity of the law of earth. Meanwhile, the Gravitational Space Profundity is an assistive Profundity of the law of earth.”
Then, the Chaos Divine Earth added, “Of course, although it’s an assistive type, the Gravitational Space Profundity has offensive and defensive traits as well.”
Based on the Chaos Divine Earth’s words, it was clearly venting, still dissatisfied with how Huang Jia Long and the others looked down on the laws of earth.
“Since the purpose of the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities at or above the King Grade is to comprehend the laws, why are they still called Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities?” Duan Ling Tian asked.
“The main purpose is to distinguish the Internal Assistive Profundities… All of the Divine Abilities at or above the King Grade contain an Internal Assistive Profundity,” the Chaos Divine Earth said.
“Internal Assistive Profundity?” Duan Ling Tian was puzzled.
“Just like the assistive Celestial Methods below the King Grade, assistive approaches cannot temporarily increase one’s Celestial Origin Energy. This type of assistive approach is called an external assistive approach. For example, the Gravitational Space Profundity in the earth-type King Grade Celestial Method you just obtained is a kind of external assistive approach. Meanwhile, the assistive Divine Abilities below the King Grade can temporarily increase one’s Celestial Origin Energy… This kind of assistive approach is called an internal assistive approach. This means that the law of the wind in the old man’s wind-type King Grade Divine Ability contains the Internal Assistive Profundity.” The Chaos Divine Earth finished speaking one breath.
The Chaos Divine Earth’s words enlightened Duan Ling Tian and cleared up his confusions.
“The Divine Abilities at or above the King Grade all have the Internal Assistive Profundity… On the other hand, the Celestial Methods at or above the King Grade is all-encompassing. It contains the Main Offensive Profundity, Main Defensive Profundity, Main Movement Profundity, and the External Assistive Profundity.”
