Chapter 3962 - Trading Conference

After Feng Qing Yang showed Duan Ling Tian everything knew, Duan Ling Tian realized how profound the comprehension of the law of time of the supreme powerhouse, who had left his legacy in the Asura Hell, was. His speed of comprehending the law of time was not as fast as his law of space that had the help of the Supreme Powerhouse Divinity, but it was not much slower.

‘If this continues, it won’t be long before my law of time becomes my second strongest law…’

Duan Ling Tian was very satisfied with his progress and was looking forward to the results.

The law of time was the strongest among the Four Supreme Laws. After all, the law of time could affect space to a certain extent, making it stronger than the other three supreme laws.

Currently, Duan Ling Tian’s strongest law was the law of space, followed by the law of life, and the law of time, which was about to overtake the law of life.

One of the reasons Duan Ling Tian’s second strongest was the law of life was due to his time in the chamber of laws. Although he had also comprehended other laws in the chamber of laws, his law of life was still stronger. Apart from that, his comprehension of the law of life also improved whenever he refined Limit Divine Pills. Having to sense the vitality energy and extracting it from the Heaven and Spirit Energy greatly helped him comprehend the law of life as well. Additionally, he had a complete Divine Tree of Life in his Little World which passively and subtly improved his comprehension of the law of life. For all these reasons, it was no wonder his second strongest law was the law of life.

The fact that Duan Ling Tian’s law of time was now about to surpass his law of life showed much improvement he had made all thanks to his master’s guidance.

‘I’ve comprehended nine laws so far; five elemental laws and the Four Supreme Laws. My law of space, law of life, and law of time are my strongest laws. My comprehension of the other six laws is only average. They’re not weak, but they can’t compare to my three strongest laws at all. I should focus on my law of space and comprehend the others when I have the time. However, recent experience proves that my doppelganger can also comprehend laws on my behalf. Also, a doppelganger can only comprehend the law it corresponds to. The doppelganger from the law of space can only comprehend the law of space, and the doppelganger from the law of life can only comprehend the law of life. If it weren’t for master, I wouldn’t even know that doppelgangers can comprehend their corresponding laws.’

…

Back in the Pure Yang Sect.

Duan Ling Tian stopped cultivating. Then, he sent a message to Zhen Ping Fan.

“Elder Zhen, are you aware that doppelgangers from non-natives of Realm of Gods can comprehend their corresponding laws?”

Zhen Ping Fan’s reply came swiftly, “Isn’t this common knowledge? Were you unaware of this?”

“Common knowledge?” Duan Ling Tian was stunned. As it turned out, what he thought was a huge discovery was common knowledge.

Zhen Ping Fan sent another message. “The world is fair, after all. Natives of Realms of Gods have bloodline powers. However, there are those who failed to trigger their bloodline power due to their weak blood relations with the supreme powerhouses. Apart from that, there are both strong and weak bloodline powers. Since non-native of Realms of Gods aren’t descendants of supreme powerhouses, they naturally can’t trigger bloodline powers. However, they can create doppelgangers from the laws they comprehended. Not only can the doppelgangers be used during a battle, but they can also be used to comprehend the laws. If you think about it carefully, non-natives havequite a few advantages over descendants of supreme powerhouses. However, their cultivation resources and cultivation environment naturally can’t compare to ours. Since we were born here, we’ve enjoyed a superior cultivation environment and cultivation resources since birth. They’re not something the lower realms can hope to compare to. For that reason, there are very few people like you who can come to the Realms of Gods. Even if they’re highly talented, their cultivation environment and the lack of superior cultivation resources are huge stumbling blocks in their path. However, if they manage to get past the stumbling block, they’ll have a slight advantage over the descendants of supreme powerhouses. For example, even among the supreme powerhouses, the strongest ones are people like you who aren’t descendants of supreme powerhouses. Naturally, this doesn’t mean the descendants of supreme powerhouses are weaker than those who are not. For descendants of supreme powerhouses, there are many who awakened extremely powerful bloodline powers. There are some that aren’t only offensive in nature; they can also assist with comprehending the laws or speeding up the comprehension of the laws or cultivation. Like I said, the world is fair.”

Duan Ling Tian learned a lot from Zhen Ping Fan’s message. In the end, he also came to the same conclusion as Zhen Ping Fan; the world was indeed fair. However, he still could not help but think that those who were non-natives of the Realms of Gods had a very slight advantage over the descendants of supreme powerhouses because he thought there were more non-natives who attained godhood compared to the number of natives who awakened extremely powerful bloodline powers.

At this time, Zhen Ping Fan sent another message again.

“There are about more than 30 years left before the start of the Seven Mansions Feast. I heard you’ve been urging Little Yang to help you gather Destruction Divine Shuttles and that the Hidden Sword faction has also been sending you Destruction Divine Shuttles. I understand you have your own ideas and plans, but I hope you’ll consider taking a break from them if you feel that they’re affecting your cultivation. At the very least, you should have moderation in everything you do. Your top priority now should be to break through and become an intermediate Lord of Gods before the start of the Seven Mansions Feast. The sect has invested greatly in you. If you fail to break through and rank in the top 10 during the Seven Mansions Feast, I’m afraid it won’t be so easy for you to leave the sect in the future. The sect will naturally make you repay it. Put yourself in the sect leader’s shoes. I’m sure you know in your heart that your actions won’t be any different from the sect leader.”

Zhen Ping Fan’s voice turned rather serious during the latter part of his message.

“Elder Zhen, don’t worry. I know what to do,” Duan Ling Tian replied, “I’ll definitely be able to become an intermediate Lord of Gods within 20 years.”

Zhen Ping Fan was relieved when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s reply. His mood lightened considerably as he smiled and replied, “If you’re able to become an intermediate Lord of Gods within 20 years, you have a chance of participating in the trading conference organized by the top five emperor-rank forces in the Eastern Ridge Mansion. It’ll be held before the Seven Mansions Feast. At that time, you’ll be able to attend with our Cloud Peak faction. Like I said before, the condition is that you must be an intermediate Lord of Gods at that time. Otherwise, the Cloud Peak faction won’t be able to reserve a place for you.”

Zhen Ping Fan’s voice turned solemn again at the end of his message.

“Trading conference?” Duan Ling Tian asked curiously, “So the five major forces gather just to trade?”

Zhen Ping Fan replied, “This upcoming trading conference will be held at Seven Kills Valley. We gather not just to trade. There are many sparring sessions among the younger generation. It’s an opportunity to test your strength, gain experience, and grow stronger. Apart from that, all the rare treasures gathered by the five major forces will also be put up for auction. In any case, it won’t be a loss for you to attend the conference. You might gain something unexpected. The only condition is that you have to be an intermediate Lord of Gods at that time. Otherwise, even if I plead for you, my father won’t agree to it. Even if I manage to put your name on the list, my father will check the list.”

After listening to this, Duan Ling Tian was rather excited. He was more than 90% confident that he would become an intermediate Lord of Gods within 20 years so long as nothing happened to him during that time.

…

Zheng Ming Island was the cultivation ground of members of the Zheng Ming faction. The faction was only an average faction in the Pure Yang Sect. After all, they only had one Emperor of God who was just a Nirvanic Elder.

Lan Zheng Ming, the leader of the Zheng Ming faction, was also only average among the Nirvanic Elders in the Pure Yang Sect. He was not weak, but he was not among the strongest. However, in terms of wisdom, very few Nirvanic Elders could compare to him. Even the Ascension Elders would praise him; not for his cultivation talent or comprehension skills but for his intelligence and shrewdness.

In fact, Lan Zheng Ming came from a very ordinary background. Apart from being hard-working, he also knew how to take advantage of situations, seize opportunities, and use his brain to deal with problems. His intelligence had helped him escape danger time and time again. In the past, he, his son, and his grandson were caught in a deadly trap, but in the end, he managed to escape due to his quick thinking. Unfortunately, unlike him, his son and grandson did not survive the trap. Hence, the only direct descendant he had left was his great-grandson from the third generation, Lan Xi Lin.

“Those from the Hidden Sword faction have been visiting the Cloud Peak faction frequently because of Duan Ling Tian? You said they seem to be giving him something?” Lan Zheng Ming, who had just received the report, asked as his eyes flashed, “Duan Ling Tian hasn’t left Cloud Peak Island at all after returning from the Myriad Phenomena Island, right? When did he get acquainted with the Hidden Sword faction?”

Lan Zheng Ming did not plant any spies on Cloud Peak Island. First, it was unnecessary and of little significance. Second, and most importantly, doing so would inevitably destroy the relationship between the Zheng Ming faction and the Cloud Peak faction. As someone who was shrewd, how could he not know what should or should not be done?

Lan Zheng Ming only heard this news from a member who was patrolling near Cloud Peak Island recently.
