Chapter 4109 - Five Months and Nine Days

Yang Yu Chen was not the only one who was surprised and excited.

“He’s still in there after two months?”

The Academy Master of the Myriad Laws Academy was also surprised and amazed when he found out about the matter.

At this time, he was not with Yang Yu Chen. Instead, he was lying on a chaise lounge in a quiet courtyard, basking under the sun. His posture was not like that of an old man at all.

A hint of surprise could be seen in his eyes as he muttered under his breath, “With this, he has already surpassed Yu Chen’s Second Senior Brother. It seems like it won’t be long before he surpasses that brat, Yu Chen, and that girl who has no respect for her elders. That boy really has great potential. It’s a pity Yu Chen was a step ahead of me to recruit him. The others only know how to compete for power. Even at important moments, they still needlessly hold on to their pride. I don’t believe they’re unaware of Duan Ling Tian’s existence.”

‘The others’ that the old man mentioned were the high-ranking officials in the Myriad Laws Academy’s Legacy faction, which included two Vice Academy Masters.

…

During the time Duan Ling Tian was in the Supreme Powerhouse Relic, more and more people in the Myriads Law Academy began to forget about him. His presence grew weaker and weaker, especially after the task on the Dark Net was removed.

Duan Ling Tian might be the champion of the Seven Mansions Feast and the most outstanding young prodigy in the Seven Mansions. However, in the eyes of the teachers and students in the Myriad Laws Academy, the Seven Mansions were just like the countryside.

However, there were quite a few people who did not forget about Duan Ling Tian.

One of them was Wang Yun Sheng, one of the Holy Sons of the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation.

It was not surprising that Wang Yun Sheng had yet to forget about Duan Ling Tian. After all, he was the one who accepted the task on the Dark Net. Moreover, after he went to challenge Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ling Tian had decisively refused his challenge.

Although most people assumed that Duan Ling Tian refused the challenge because he was no match for Wang Yun Sheng, Wang Yun Sheng was not convinced. When Duan Ling Tian refused him, he could see that Duan Ling Tian was not worried or frightened. In fact, it seemed as though Duan Ling Tian disdained to fight with him.

“I’ll trample on you under my feet one day. I’ll make you see that prodigies like you that come from backward places are nothing!”

Wang Yun Sheng’s biggest wish now was to fight Duan Ling Tian. He was even willing to pay a high price to do so.

…

Apart from Wang Yun Sheng, those from the Myriad Laws Academy’s Legacy faction also did not forget about Duan Ling Tian. After all, they were extremely worried that Duan Ling Tian would give Yang Yu Chen another advantage to become the Academy Master of the Myriad Laws Academy.

Without Duan Ling Tian, even if Yang Yu Chen had the support of the Academy Master of the Myriad Laws Academy, they could oppose Yang Yu Chen by saying he had no talent in cultivating the younger generation, which was an important factor in the academy. With Duan Ling Tian, this excuse naturally became useless. The more outstanding Duan Ling Tian was, the higher Yang Yu Chen’s advantage would be.

Many of them were convinced that Yang Yu Chen went to the Eastern Ridge Mansion’s Pure Yang Sect to personally recruit Duan Ling Tian because Yang Yu Chen wanted the position of the Academy Master of the Myriad Laws Academy.

For all these reasons, Duan Ling Tian was an eyesore to the members of the Legacy faction.

“This won’t do. I’ll wait for Duan Ling Tian to leave the Inner Palace faction’s independent realm so I can test his strength. In fact, I should just look for an opportunity to kill him. Otherwise, he’ll definitely give Yang Yu Chen a high advantage…”

…

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian was unaware that due to the internal strife in the Myriad Laws Academy, many people whom he had not met were already plotting his death.

At this time, he was still in the Supreme Powerhouse Relic.

…

“Two and a half months…”

Yang Yu Chen was amazed and pleasantly surprised.

“I truly have a discerning eye! My junior brother is so amazing. I really admire myself for having such a good eye for talent. I wonder when he’ll come out…”

Yang Yu Chen naturally had expectations for Duan Ling Tian. Although Duan Ling Tian did very well so far, he still hoped that Duan Ling Tian would be able to break his record.

…

When three months passed, Yang Yu Chen’s eyes shone with excitement when he saw that Duan Ling Tian had yet to come out from the Supreme Powerhouse Relic.

“Junior brother really has a bright future ahead of him! He’s definitely going to catch up to me in the future… If he stays longer than this, he’ll break my record!”

…

After another few days passed, Duan Ling Tian finally broke Yang Yu Chen’s record.

Yang Yu Chen sighed emotionally, “He’s truly monstrous. Now that he has surpassed me, I wonder if he’ll surpass Eldest Senior Sister as well…”

…

When four months had passed, Yang Yu Chen had grown slightly numb.

Duan Ling Tian had now surpassed their Eldest Senior Sister’s record in the Supreme Powerhouse Relic.

“The longest time spent in the Supreme Powerhouse Relic is five months and five days… That person was on track to become a supreme powerhouse. It’s unfortunate that when he was a rudimentary Supreme God, he fought with an advanced Supreme God, causing him to die prematurely…”

Among the current members of the Inner Palace faction, Yang Yu Chen and his Eldest Senior Sister stayed the longest in the Supreme Powerhouse Relic. However, after Duan Ling Tian entered the Supreme Powerhouse Relic, he had surpassed both of their time.

In the history of the Inner Palace faction, the longest time spent in the Supreme Powerhouse Relic was five months and five days. No one had broken the record at all after so many years. This record was set by a member 200,000 years ago.

…

“It’s been four and a half months… Will he be able to stay for five months?”

…

When five months passed, Duan Ling Tian still did not come out from the Supreme Powerhouse Relic.

“Will Duan Ling Tian really break the record set by our senior 200,000 years ago? Will he be able to stay for more than five months and five days?”

Yang Yu Chen, who had grown numb, began to feel excited again.

…

Another five days passed, and there was still no sign of Duan Ling Tian coming out from the Supreme Powerhouse Relic.

Yang Yu Chen felt rather emotional.

“He’s going to break the record! What kind of monstrous talent did I find?”

…

In the Supreme Powerhouse Relic.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was being chased by a group of people. Without exception, they were all advanced Lords of Gods.

“I’ve already died twice. If I die again, I’ll be sent out. I wonder if I’ve broken Third Senior Brother’s record, right? Before Third Senior Brother entered the Supreme Powerhouse Relic, he had not comprehended the Mastery Dao at all. Eldest Senior Sister was like that as well…”

Duan Ling Tian tried his best to flee, but he was soon surrounded by the group of advanced Lords of Gods. He charged out, attacking them to fight his way through the encirclement. Although he managed to break free, he was severely injured.

‘I don’t think I’ll last much longer. At most, I’ll be able to hold on for a few more days…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself bitterly. He was very aware of the state he was in now, after all.

…

After a few more days, Duan Ling Tian could no longer hold on and was killed. In just a blink of an eye, he found that he was no longer in the Supreme Powerhouse Relic. With this, he could no longer enter the Supreme Powerhouse Relic again. One could only enter the Supreme Powerhouse Relic once in their life; if one tried to enter again, one would be met with resistance from the Supreme Powerhouse Relic.

“Five months and nine days!” Yang Yu Chen exclaimed when he saw the purple-clad figure that suddenly appeared. The corners of his lips twitched slightly as he watched Duan Ling Tian look around in a daze.

When Duan Ling Tian regained his senses, he turned to ask Yang Yu Chen with a hint of nervousness, “I’m out… Third Senior Brother, how long did I stay in there?”

“Five months and nine days,” Yang Yu Chen replied as he tried his best to stay calm. He did not want to seem too excited. Otherwise, his junior brother might think he was an amateur.

“Five months and nine days?” Duan Ling Tian frowned slightly. “I didn’t even last a year?”

‘A year?’ The corners of Yang Yu Chen’s lips twitched when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words.

“Third Senior Brother, how long did you, Eldest Senior Sister, and Second Senior Brother stay in there?” Duan Ling Tian asked curiously.

Yang Yu Chen sighed. He knew he could not avoid this question. After taking a deep breath, he said calmly, “Don’t be discouraged. Although you stayed there for only five months and nine days, it’s rather good. After all, I’ve only been in there for a little over six months. As for Eldest Senior Sister, she stayed in there for seven months…”

Duan Ling Tian’s expression fell upon hearing these words. “There’s so much difference? I stayed in there about a month less than you and about two months less than Eldest Senior Sister…”

Although Duan Ling Tian had made mental preparations, he still could not help but feel disappointed. After a moment, he asked, “Then, how long did Second Senior Brother and Fourth Senior Sister stay in there?”

Yang Yu Chen replied with a smile, “They didn’t stay there as long as you did. Your Second Senior Brother only stayed there for almost five months. As for your Fourth Senior Sister, she stayed there for four months.”

At this time, Yang Yu Chen was speaking to Lang Chun Yuan through Voice Transmission. He informed her about his intention and what he had told Duan Ling Tian so she would not expose him when they met. He had lied to Duan Ling Tian to prevent Duan Ling Tian from becoming complacent. In fact, he only wanted the best for Duan Ling Tian, and he did not have any selfish intentions at all.
