Chapter 3746 Blessed by the Heavens
Previously, Kuang Tian Zheng had sent his junior brother, Du Zhan, to the Hidden Fog Sect while he personally went to the Linghu clan. He was in such a hurry to avenge his disciple that he forgot to consider many things. At that time, his mind was occupied by thenews of Duan Ling Tian killing the disciples of Supreme Elder Feng and Supreme Elder Lei of the Hidden Fog Sect.
Kuang Tian Zheng heard that Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao, the disciples of the two supreme elders of the Hidden Fog Sect, were among the five strongest core disciples in the Hidden Fog Sect. Apart from that, despite being intermediate Kings of Gods, the duo was capable of killing ordinary advanced Kings of Gods. However, Duan Ling Tian, who had just become a rudimentary King of Gods, managed to kill the duo.
With this kind of strength, Kuang Tian Zheng knew Duan Ling Tian would not have much difficulty killing his disciple, Chu Han, who was a rudimentary King of Gods before his death, even if Duan Ling Tian was just an advanced god at that time.
Kuang Tian Zheng was so engrossed in thinking about Duan Ling Tian after he left the 10,000 Devils Sect for the Linghu clan that he completely disregarded other matters. He did not consider that his speed would be much faster thanks to his lord-rank flying ship compared to Du Zhan’s speed. Consequently, news about his visit to the Linghu clan was quickly passed to Wu Feng before Du Zhan even arrived at the Hidden Fog Sect.
Du Zhan looked for Kuang Tian Zheng immediately after returning to the 10,000 Devils Sect. He said apologetically, “Senior brother, my speed is too slow…”
“It’s not your fault,” Kuang Tian Zheng said. Although he was angry, he did not let his anger consume his reason. He waved his hand and said, “I didn’t consider things properly leading to Duan Ling Tian warning Wu Feng.” “However, the fact that Wu Feng fled from the Hidden Fog Sect further confirms that the “Junior Brother Duan’ that Qian Jun told us about is Duan Ling Tian. Duan Ling Tian is much stronger than we imagined. He’s just a rudimentary King of Gods, but he managed to kill Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao. This shows he’s capable of killing opponents with cultivation bases a level or two higher than his. This also means he could kill Chu Han, who was a rudimentary King of Gods, when he was just an advanced god. With all these, there’s no doubt he’s the one who killed Chu Han.”
After saying these words, Kuang Tian Zheng had to inhale deeply to calm his anger. After a moment, he said, “It’s fine. There’s no rush. I heard from Linghu Ren Jie that Duan Ling Tian’s planning to participate in the Latent Dragon Grand Contest 20 years later. Since he plans to join the Flying Dragon Sect, I’ll have plenty of chances to kill him once he joins the sect. I can’t allow him to grow stronger so I’ll kill him as soon as he enters the sect!” Kuang Tian Zheng’s eyes shone with murderous intent when he spoke. “Can’t we kill him while he’s in the Linghu clan?” Du Zhan asked. Then, he said, “Duan Ling Tian’s innate talent and comprehension skills are too heaven-defying. It’s best to kill him sooner than later.”
Although Du Zhan had never met Duan Ling Tian before, he had heard more than enough about Duan Ling Tian.
“I want to kill him as soon as possible as well,” Kuang Tian Zheng said grimly, “However, Linghu Ren Jie is determined to protect him. Earlier, before I could even make a move, Linghu Ren Jie had already activated his clan’s Guarding Formation.”
After a brief pause, Kuang Tian Zheng continued to say through gritted teeth, “That Linghu Ren Jie dares to act impudently because of his grandfather, the White Dragon Elder, in the Flying Dragon Sect.”
Du Zhan inhaled sharply upon hearing the words ‘White Dragon Elder’.
The White Dragon Elder was originally from the Linghu clan. In the past, his status in the clan was as high as a supreme elder. He was a famous intermediate Lord of Gods. Regardless of factions, he was rather kind to the juniors who entered the Flying Dragon Sect.
Kuang Tian Zheng looked at Du Zhan and said, changing the topic, “Junior brother, I heard from Lan Qing that Duan Ling Tian came from the Devata Realm so he shouldn’t have any family here. However, Wu Feng is native to the Profound Energy Land so he should have family here. He might have already moved his family to a safer place, but investigate it just the same. If we can capture his family, we might be able to threaten him.” After a pause, he continued to say, “As for me, I’ll return to the Flying Dragon Sect first to prepare for my disciple’s wedding since there’s no longer any use in my staying in the 10,000 Devils Sect.” “Don’t worry, senior brother,” Du Zhan solemnly said, “Even if he relocates his family, I’ll do all that I can to find them.” Upon hearing this, Kuang Tian Zheng nodded with a smile and said, “Then, I’ll have to trouble you, junior brother.”
“The wedding banquet for my disciple and the daughter of Vice Sect Leader Xue should be held in three months’ time. I’ll send an invitation to you and Lan Qing. Bring Qian Jun and Po Jun along with you to attend the wedding,” Kuang Tian Zheng said.
After Kuang Tian Zheng left, Du Zhan muttered to himself excitedly, “Since senior brother’s disciple is going to marry the daughter of Vice Sect Leader Xue, our 10,000 Devils Sect’s status will definitely rise. With that, we’ll be able to suppress the Hidden Fog Sect!”
When Du Zhan finally calmed down, he left to look for Lan Qing to discuss the matter of searching for Wu Feng and his family.
Linghu clan.
After Duan Ling Tian joined the Linghu clan, Linghu Ren Jie, the Clan Leader of the Linghu clan, treated him very well. Linghu Ren Jie would try his best to fulfill his requests. For this reason, his opinion of Linghu Renjie and the Linghu clan was rather high.
During this time, Duan Ling Tian stayed in the Linghu clan’s estate and focused on his cultivation. Unfortunately, even with the help of various divine pills and divine fruits, his cultivation speed was not particularly fast. In fact, he felt like his progress was quite slow after becoming a rudimentary King of Gods.
In the end, he decided to take a break from the monotony of cultivating and continued to comprehend the law of space through the Supreme Powerhouse Divinity. Apart from that, he studied ancient records as well.
Linghu Ren Jie had granted Duan Ling Tian access to the Linghu clan’s library. He had access to everything in the library except for the core secrets of the Linghu clan.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was perusing the ancient records regarding pill refining methods by alchemists in the Realms of Gods.
“The process of pill refining here is really intricate…” Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself. After reading about pill refining in the Realms of Gods, he discovered his knowledge was quite shallow.
Similar to the Devata Realms, alchemists in the Realms of Gods had to use the law of fire to form a flame to refine pills. Similarly, their control of the flames was very important.
However, as Duan Ling Tian continued reading, he realized that in the Realms of Gods, pill refining did not solely depend on one’s control of the fire. There was also a purification stage in the process of refining the pills that could be done with the help of the law of the wood.
“Highly talented alchemists can even extract the vitality energy, which is similar to the energy from the Divine Tree of life, present in the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy and imbue the pills with it. This will increase the purity of the pills, and in return, improve the quality and efficacy of the pill.” Duan Ling Tian was slightly surprised. He knew that Realms of Gods had Divine Trees of Life, and he knew about the vitality energy from the Divine Trees of Life. After all, he also had a Divine Tree of Life in his Little World. However, he did not expect that vitality energy could also be extracted from the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the Realms of Gods.
“In Realms of Gods, the first stage of refining pills relies on the law of fire, the middle stage relies on the law of wood, and the final stage relies on the law of life…”
After reading this, Duan Ling Tian realized he was equipped with the laws necessary to become a genius alchemist. Not many people were like him. He was truly blessed by the heavens.
“In a fight, a deeper comprehension of the law and Fused Profundities will be advantageous. However, in terms of pill refining, Fused Profundities from the law of fire are useless. Moreover, Fused Profundities can cause the temperature to become unstable, causing failure in refining pills. Nonetheless, it shouldn’t be a problem to use a Fused Profundity to heat the cauldron in the initial stage as long as one is careful. It would save a lot of time. It’s the same for the law of wood and the law of life. It’s enough as long as one comprehends the profundities to the mastery stage…”
“In other words, if I want to refine pills, I don’t have to waste too much time comprehending the law of fire, the law of wood, and the law of life. My law of fire is up to standard. As for my law of life, I’ve comprehended the profundities to the initial stage. However, I’ve only comprehended two profundities from the law of wood to the initial stage.”
When Duan Ling Tian was in the Devata Realms, Duan Ling Tian had comprehended all of the profundities from the law of fire to the mastery stage in the Title Temple’s chamber of law that was located in an independent realm. However, he did not spend much time comprehending the law of wood and the law of life. He only had shallow comprehension of them. Even then, it was all thanks to the Divine Tree of Life and the Clear Heavens Divine Wood.
“Seems like I’ll have to visit the Linghu clan’s chamber of law.”
With this, Duan Ling Tian did not waste time and sent a message to Linghu Ren Jie immediately, asking if he could enter the chamber of law.
Linghu Ren Jie’s reply came swiftly. “Duan Ling Tian, with your profound comprehension of the law of space, our clan’s chamber of law won’t be useful to you at all. It’s a waste of your time to enter it.”
Duan Ling Tian knew Linghu Ren Jie had misunderstood his intention so he explained, “Clan Leader, you’ve misunderstood me. I’m not comprehending the law of space in the chamber of law. I want to comprehend the law of life and the law of wood.”
