Chapter 3610: Duan Ling Tian’s First Fight After Attaining Godhood
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Nobody expected Qian Shu Huan, the ancestor of the Qian family, to question Duan Ling Tian’s identity at this moment. Moreover, they were unaware that Ye Bei Yuan, the Valley Master of the Moon Shadow Valley in the Glorious Heaven Sect, only had a disciple who perished 30 years ago. With this revelation, everyone shifted their eyes to Duan Ling Tian in unison. All of them began to wonder if Duan Ling Tian was lying about his identity.
Upon hearing Qian Shu Huan’s words, Qian Fei, the second Young Master of the Qian family, hurriedly cried out, “Impostor! You must be an impostor! How dare you pretend to be a disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect? You’re dead!”
Faced with a life-or-death situation, Qian Fei treated Qian Shu Huan’s words as though they were the only thing that could save him now.
At the same time, Qian Yue Jin, the head of the Qian family, looked at Duan Ling Tian skeptically as well. He did not doubt Duan Ling Tian’s words previously since Duan Ling Tian had mentioned Ye Bei Yuan, whom he had been certain no one in Mountain Descent City had known. However, in hindsight, he thought he had trusted Duan Ling Tian’s words too much when there was no evidence to prove Duan Ling Tian was telling the truth. He had only trusted Duan Ling Tian previously because he did not think anyone would be bold enough to pretend to be a disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect unless they had a death wish. An emperor-rank force would not let anyone get away with this since it could potentially tarnish their reputation.
‘I hope he’s really an impostor!’ Qian Yue Jin thought to himself. If Duan Ling Tian was truly an impostor, it would mean that his beloved son would be spared. After all, if they could prove that Duan Ling Tian was not a disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect, then the Qian family had nothing to be afraid of.
Everyone from the Qian family stared at Duan Ling Tian intently at this moment. All of them hoped that Duan Ling Tian was just an impostor at this moment. Nevertheless, none of them dared to act recklessly since no one could be sure that Qian Shu Huan was not mistaken.
At the same time, the members of the Meng family, the Cloudy Morning Sect, and the Heaven Martial Sect looked at Duan Ling Tian with expressions of surprise on their faces. All of them were intrigued by the sudden turn in events. They wanted to know if Duan Ling Tian was truly a disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect or just an impostor.
Duan Ling Tian glanced at Qian Shu Huan and asked with a faint smile on his face, “How do you know my master?”
“I, Qian Shu Huan, left Descent Mountain City 10,000 years ago and joined a lord-rank sect called the Oriental Moon Sect. The Oriental Moon Sect has many interactions with the Glorious Heaven Sect so I’ve heard of the matters in the Glorious Heaven Sect. Young man, do you know how serious it is to pretend to be a disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect?” Qian Shu Huan asked in a grave tone.
“Pretend?” Duan Ling Tian laughed. “An advanced god like you who has had no breakthrough after 10,000 years must be at the bottom of the hierarchy even in a mere lord-rank sect. How dare you question my identity!”
Qian Shu Huan’s expression darkened as soon as Duan Ling Tian’s finished speaking. “Young man, the Qian family will personally execute Qian Fei if you’re truly a disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect. However, if you’re not who you said you are, I’ll have to capture you and send you to the Glorious Heaven Sect so they can deal with you as they see fit.”
Duan Ling Tian scoffed. “You think you can capture me with your capabilities?”
In the next moment, Divine Energy surged out of Duan Ling Tian’s body.
Upon sensing the Divine Energy, the eyes of Meng Qi You, the divine pill alchemist from the Meng family, flashed. ‘He’s broken through and attained godhood!’
Meng Qi You remembered that Duan Ling Tian was only a celestial three months ago when Duan Ling Tian bought the Psychic Pills. Since Duan Ling Tian had attained godhood in such a short time, it meant that three months ago, Duan Ling Tian must have already been very close to attaining godhood.
“A rudimentary god thinks he can best an advanced god?”
Upon seeing this, many people looked at Duan Ling Tian contemptuously. Some did not even hide the disdainful smiles on their faces.
“A rudimentary god like you dares to attack me?” Qian Shu Huan scoffed at Duan Ling Tian. “Young man, even if you’re a disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect and a direct disciple of Lord Ye Bei Yuan, it’s impossible for a rudimentary god like you to defeat me, an advanced god!”
Qian Shu Huan’s Divine Energy that was mixed with the law of water swept out into the surroundings.
‘An advanced god…’ Duan Ling Tian’s fighting spirit soared. He had already known Qian Shu Huan was an advanced god when he saw Qian Shu Huan. Currently, all the intermediate gods in Descent Mountain City were no match for him. He could easily defeat them with his law of space. Hence, he was excited to test his strength against an advanced god. After all, an advanced god in Descent Mountain City was even inferior to the advanced gods in the Devata Realms.
The advanced gods in the Devata Realms had cultivated for a long time, and the laws they comprehended were more profound compared to the bottom dwellers in Realms of Gods like Qian Shu Huan. Hence, Duan Ling Tian was not surprised when he saw Qian Shu Huan had only managed to fuse two profundities from the law of water. Although he was not surprised, he found it difficult to accept that someone who had attained godhood for more than 10,000 years would have such a weak comprehension of the law.
‘Based on his comprehension of the law of water, he’s nothing but a speck of dust in front of the Ten Directions Celestial Emperors in the Nine Serenities Battlefield…’
Nonetheless, despite Qian Shu Huan’s weak comprehension of the law, Duan Ling Tian did not underestimate Qian Shu Huan. After all, Qian Shu Huan was still an advanced god no matter what; Qian Shu Huan’s Divine Energy was two times stronger than his. With all that said, he was not afraid at all.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
At this time, spatial tears appeared in the void as nine sword rays from the Cross-Dimensional Slash Profundity that had been strengthened by the Divine Energy and fused with another three profundities from the law of space shot out. Subsequently, they merged into a huge gray sword ray.
Buzz!
The huge gray sword ray from the Cross Dimensional Slash Profundity, which had been boosted by the Teleportation Profundity, the Transportation Profundity, and the Magnetic Profundity along with the Divine Energy, emitted a terrifying energy.
“How’s this possible?!” The confident smile on Qian Shu Huan froze immediately when he sensed the power contained in Duan Ling Tian’s huge gray sword ray. Panic flashed in his eyes as he looked at the sword ray disbelievingly. How could a rudimentary god cast such an attack that fused four profundities from the law of space?
Qian Shu Huan knew that the most talented prodigy in the Glorious Heaven Sect could also fuse four profundities. However, that prodigy had comprehended one of the elemental laws that was no match for the law of space in terms of difficulty. He had previously heard that the prodigy was the best talent the Glorious Heaven Sect had seen in the last 10,000 years. Hence, the sect had high hopes for him and thought he had the highest potential to become an Emperor of Gods.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Qian Shu Huan recovered from his shock and quickly attacked. The blue energy that surged out from his body churned like a tornado as it spun toward Duan Ling Tian’s attack. He did not bother using his divine artifact because Duan Ling Tian would have a superior divine artifact if Duan Ling Tian was truly Ye Bei Yuan’s disciple. If he brought his divine artifact now, he would be the one to suffer.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The water tornado churned fiercely as it swept out, causing the weaker members of the Qian family to retreat.
Buzz!
Duan Ling Tian’s sword ray collided with the water tornado and easily cleaved the water tornado into two. When the water tornado tried to merge again, they were kept apart by a powerful spatial energy.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Water splashed everywhere as the sound of an explosion rang in the air.
The crowd blocked the splashes of water hastily as though the water were deadly weapons.
The leaders and gods of the Qian family protected themselves and did not forget to protect their weaker members as well from the backlash of the collision..
