Under everyone’s watchful eyes. Li Yuan, whose body was on fire, charged toward Duan Ling Tian. Alas, before he could even draw close to Duan Ling Tian, he was cleaved into two. The only thing they saw and heard before Li Yuan’s death was the sound of a sword cry and a burst of seven-color light.
After Li Yuan was cleaved in two, the fire continued to burn. In just a blink of an eye, the two parts of his corpse were burnt into ashes.
After the fire died down, only a Spatial Ring, a spear, a golden armor, and an Accumulation Points Jade hovered in the air.
“You can have his points,” Duan Ling Tian said to Ling Jue Yun. Before Li Yuan’s Accumulative Points Jade could go to him, he sent it over to Ling Jue Yin with a flick of his fingers.
Li Yuan’s Accumulative Point Jade accurately flew more than 100 meters away toward Ling Jue Yun in just a blink of an eye.
Compared to Murong Xiao Xiao, Ling Jue Yun was seated closer to Duan Ling Tian.
Boom!
After Li Yuan’s Accumulative Points Jade exploded, Duan Ling Tian brought out his own Accumulative Points Jade. He nodded in satisfaction when he saw his points did not increase. Prior to this, he had obtained a lot of points after killing two people who had comprehended two profundities from a law. If he had obtained Li Yuan’s points as well, it would certainly raise people’s suspicion. Even if no one would have memories of the Celestial Lord Temple, with his points, it was easy to rouse people’s suspicion. With so many points, someone was bound to connect Sima Chun, Dongfang Jin Lun, and Li Yuan’s deaths to him.
Although Duan Ling Tian would be somewhat protected after joining the Three Sects and Two Clans, he knew the Three Sects and Two Clans would not be able to protect him all the time. He was more than capable of protecting himself since he still possessed the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, but he did not want to use it unless it was absolutely necessary.
For all these reasons, Duan Ling Tian decided to give Ling Jue Yun the points so their points would be balanced.
When Ling Jue Yun saw the many points he just obtained, he said through gritted teeth, “You’re trying to make me your scapegoat…”
“Don’t worry. They won’t just suspect us. There are many people with a lot of points as well. It’d be difficult for them to narrow down the suspect,” Duan Ling Tian said through Voice Transmission.
Whoosh!
Then, Duan Ling Tian raised a hand, and an invisible force brought Li Yuan’s Spatial Ring, spear, and golden armor to him.
“I thought the law of time would be my biggest gain in Time Valley… Who knew someone would give me their Spatial Ring and King Grade Celestial Weapon,” Duan Ling Tian put the things away and shook his head as he said, “Although I don’t lack King Grade Celestial Weapons, it’d be rude of me not to accept it.”
Due to the silence in Time Valley, Duan Ling Tian’s words rang clearly in everyone’s ears. They were rendered speechless by his words. He did not lack King Grade Celestial Weapons? If he did not lack those weapons, he could give them away! Naturally, they did not dare to verbalize their thoughts after witnessing his strength. Who would dare to provoke this monster?
Duan Ling Tian looked down at everyone and said, “Everyone, I apologize… Since I just killed someone, it means our time here has been shortened. After this, I hope everyone will quietly comprehend the law of time that was left behind by the Southern Heaven Celestial Lord…” He continued to say, “Well, I’ll start comprehending the law of time now… Please don’t disturb me unless it’s urgent. It’s not that easy for me to enter the meditative state.”
Everyone felt chills running up their spines when they heard the threat in Duan Ling Tian’s words. They had no doubt if anyone dared to provoke him, they would surely end up like Li Yuan.
Duan Ling Tian closed his eyes. Before he entered the meditative state, he extended his Divine Consciousness to monitor surroundings. “I hope no one will bother me again… After all, it takes time to comprehend the law of time…”
‘This… is the law of time?’ As soon as Duan Ling Tian began to comprehend the law of time, he could feel a mysterious energy swirling around him. The air on his right seemed to flow slowly before it suddenly picked up speed. Then, at some point, it completely stagnated as though time had stopped.
The Four Supreme Laws could not be found in Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. It depended on one’s luck to encounter and comprehend the Four Supreme Laws. The law of time was known as the most mysterious and profound among the Four Supreme Laws.
Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, ‘The Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon that I once owned, the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, should contain the law of time as well… After all, the time flow in the pagoda was different.’ When he recalled the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, he, naturally, thought about Elder Huo. He could not help but sigh. He wondered where Elder Huo and the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda were now…
While Duan Ling Tian was immersed in comprehending the law of time, fierce battles ensued underneath his seat.
Many participants were vying for the stone blocks. However, regardless of how intense the fights were, none of them dared to approach the stone block that Duan Ling Tian occupied.
Meanwhile, Murong Xiao Xiao who had witnessed Duan Ling Tian killing Li Yuan with just a strike was in shock for a long time. Although she did not doubt Ou Ya’s words, it was still a shocking sight to behold. ‘His strength is terrifying! I wonder if that seven-color light came from his Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon? If he had attacked me, I’d end up just like Li Yuan…’ She broke out in cold sweat when she thought about this.
Similarly, the four men who doubted Duan Ling Tian’s words earlier were shocked. They did not believe he was a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial who had comprehended two profundities from a law due to his age. Moreover, they had found it difficult to believe he had killed Sima Chun and Dongfang Jun Lin.
‘Their strength is just average. I killed them within seconds with just a strike!’ Duan Ling Tian’s words echoed over and over again in their minds.
“He’s a monster! How’s he so strong?”
“If I’m not mistaken, he had only attacked with the law of earth’s Earth Elemental Profundity earlier… The reason his attack was so strong should be due to the seven-color light that burst forth from his sword earlier. In fact, I saw the sword entering his body after he attacked!”
One of them remembered seeing a sword returning to Duan Ling Tian’s body after he killed Li Yuan. He did not think the sword was a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon.
“Entering his body? T-this is a trait unique to Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons, right?”
“He… he has an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon?!”
“An Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon!”
“This purple-clad young man possesses an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons!”
It did not take long before everyone in Time Valley knew Duan Ling Tian possessed an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon.
Ou Ya, Xue Jing Yu, and others who had witnessed Duan Ling Tian killing Dongfang Jin Lun were not surprised at all.
A few people occupying the lower stone blocks discussed among themselves.
“Li Yuan was foolish to provoke Duan Ling Tian!”
“I could’ve reminded him earlier to not look for trouble with Duan Ling Tian… However, his reputation was really bad, and I don’t like him so I let him be”
“Me too!”
Meanwhile, near the two second-highest stone blocks.
When Murong Xiao Xiao saw Ou Ya was about to leave, she said through Voice Transmission, “Sister Ou Ya… This person is less than 100 years old. Aren’t you going to challenge him for his seat? With your strength, it shouldn’t be difficult for you to claim his seat.”
Upon hearing Murong Xiao Xiao’s words, a bitter smile appeared on Ou Ya’s face before she explained through Voice Transmission. “Sister Murong, I appreciate your kind thought… However, I’m not his match. Even if both of us join forces, we still won’t be a match for him. Instead of wasting time challenging him for the seat, I’d rather use my time to comprehend the law of time.”
Murong Xiao Xiao asked, “D-Does he own an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon like Duan Ling Tian?” She did not think there would be a second person who possessed an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon here. After all, Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons were incredibly rare!
“He doesn’t have an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons,” Ou Ya said.
“Then why are you afraid of him?” Murong Xiao Xiao asked.
“He doesn’t have an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons, but I heard some people said he has a purely defensive Royal Grade Celestial Weapon… Moreover, he has comprehended two profundities from the law of death,” Ou Ya said with a trace of helplessness.
Duan Ling Tian was less than 100 old and had comprehended two profundities from the law of earth. Apart from that, he had a seven-color sword that was an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon.
On the other hand, Ling Jue Yun was also less than 100 years old and had comprehended two profundities from the law of death. On top of that, he possessed a purely defensive Royal Grade Celestial Weapon as well.
Ou Ya had no intention of challenging these two people at all.
