4412 The Man Who Was Close to Becoming a Peerless Top Advanced Supreme God
Indeed, the Supreme Elder of the Wang clan was also a sword cultivator.
As a sword ray shot out, the energy from the law of metal shone brilliantly, lighting up the dark space in the spatial artifact like the scorching sun.
Duan Ling Tian was not surprised that the Supreme Elder of the Wang clan had comprehended the law of metal to its perfect form. After all, the other party was close to becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God. However, he was surprised that the other party had also comprehended the Sword Dao, not just the rudimentary form of the Sword Dao, but the real Sword Dao. However, the other party’s Sword Dao was still inferior to his Sword Dao.
Swoosh!
Duan Ling Tian struck with his sword as well. The Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, which was now a prime divine artifact, did not have any advantage at all since the other party’s sword was also a prime divine artifact.
Duan Ling Tian channeled his Divine Energy into his sword, and a seven-colored sword ray shot out. It looked particularly eye-catching in the midst of the golden light emitted by the other party.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The golden sword ray was domineering, and its terrifying sword intent seemed to make the entire place tremble.
…
Meanwhile, Wang Kui, the Clan Leader of the Wang clan, watched solemnly from a distance away. He had also sparred with the Supreme Elder before, and based on the Supreme Elder’s display of strength now, it was clear that the Supreme Elder had held back a lot when they sparred in the past. The Supreme Elder’s law of metal and Sword Dao were much more powerful than he had imagined.
‘No wonder some people say that our Supreme Elder is the hope of our Wang clan to regain a supreme powerhouse again… With this, he really has a chance of breaking into the realm of supreme powerhouses!’
…
Duan Ling Tian flew toward the Supreme Elder of the Wang clan. When the white-haired and rosy-cheeked old man used his bloodline power, he could sense the other party’s frightening strength. As expected of someone who was almost comparable to a peerless top advanced Supreme God. Not counting supreme powerhouses, the other party was the strongest opponent he had encountered since he came to the Outer Boundary. Not many of those under the realm of supreme powerhouses were a match for the other party.
“Senior, your strength is impressive… However, I’m afraid it’s impossible for you to defeat me with your Sword Dao,” Duan Ling Tian said.
In just a moment, Duan Ling Tian had already exchanged more than a hundred blows with the old man. Although he briefly fell into a disadvantageous position, he quickly regained the upper hand. He had also used his Sword Dao, which was stronger than his opponent’s Sword Doa. It was only natural that those who had a higher comprehension of the Sword Dao would gain the upper hand.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Elder of the Wang clan also discovered the problem. Since he and his opponent comprehended the Sword Dao and his opponent’s comprehension of the Sword Dao was superior to his, it was only natural that his opponent was able to find the flaw in his Sword Dao and evade his attacks over and over again. Most importantly, the opponent’s Sword Dao was significantly stronger than his even if his opponent’s strength was weaker than his. Even if the Sword Dao they mastered was not the same, there were still many similarities.
‘Even if I mastered other Weapon Dao such as the Saber Dao or the Spear Dao, I still won’t be able to defeat him unless I comprehend one of the other three Daos of Heaven and Earth…’ the old man thought to himself with a sigh before he said, “Alright, let’s end this. If we continue, we’ll only be wasting our energies. It’s unlikely for any of us to win. I admit it’s impossible for me to defeat you, but it’s also impossible for you to defeat me. After all, my strength is stronger than yours.”
Following that, the Supreme Elder of the Wang clan withdrew his prime divine sword and looked at Duan Ling Tian with a complicated gaze. If he had not witnessed it with his own eyes and experienced it himself, he would not have believed a young man who was not even ten thousand years old possessed such strength. He was certain that it was only a matter of time before Duan Ling Tian became a supreme powerhouse unless Duan Ling Tian died prematurely. Moreover, he had no doubt that Duan Ling Tian would not be an ordinary supreme powerhouse.
The Supreme Elder of the Wang clan knew a lot about supreme powerhouses. He knew that there were many outstanding and talented cultivators who had difficulty growing stronger after becoming supreme powerhouses. This was because they took too many years to become supreme powerhouses. He, himself, was a good example. If he became a supreme powerhouse in the future, it would be difficult for him to continue raising his strength. He was already very old, after all. Saying that, he was not even sure if he could become a supreme powerhouse.
When the Supreme Elder of the Wang clan recalled the earlier battle again, his eyes suddenly lit up. Earlier, he had ended the fight early not only because he felt it was pointless to continue, but it was also because he seemed to have gained some enlightenment regarding the Sword Dao when he was fighting Duan Ling Tian. If he could improve his Sword Dao, he would be one step closer to becoming a supreme powerhouse.
At this time, Duan Ling Tian already had a basic understanding of the opponent’s strength. He nodded and said, “Indeed. Senior, if you comprehended another Dao instead of the Weapon Dao, I’ll definitely lose if the fight drags on. We’ll end the fight as you suggested. Senior, I have a request, and I hope you’ll agree to it.”
“Tell me.”
Duan Ling Tian had given the Supreme Elder of the Wang clan a chance to improve his Sword Dao. Even if Duan Ling Tian did not do it intentionally, he was still grateful. As such, when he heard that Duan Ling Tian had a request, he did not refuse Duan Ling Tian immediately. As long as it was within his ability, he would not refuse Duan Ling Tian. He had always been magnanimous, and if he refused Duan Ling Tian now, who knew if it would impede his growth in the future?
“Senior, I hope you’ll match me and Miss Luo Yu from your clan. I have seen many beauties in my life, but Miss Luo Yu is the only person who made me fall in love at first sight. I’m deeply enchanted by her. If I don’t marry her, I’m afraid it’ll be a stumbling block in my path to becoming a supreme powerhouse. Senior, I’m sure you understand my feelings since you’ve cultivated to this point. One small misstep can lead one down the wrong path. It won’t be easy going back to the right path after that…” Duan Ling Tian said as his expression grew more and more solemn. Needless to say, his words were all nonsense. However, it had to be said that no flaws could be found in his words.
The old man was briefly stunned. Then, he looked at Duan Ling Tian intently and said, “I’ve heard about this from the clan leader. I really didn’t expect a member of our clan to be lucky enough to catch your eyes…” He paused for a moment before he continued to say, “It’s her blessing if she can marry you. As such, I’ll take it as a joke when you said that you’ll join the Wang clan. If there’s anything you need from our clan in the future, just let us know. We’ll be family after all…”
Clearly, the Supreme Elder of the Wang clan had agreed to Duan Ling Tian’s request. Not only that, but he planned to do Duan Ling Tian a favor. He and the clan would not suffer any losses from doing Duan Ling Tian a favor.
On the other hand, Duan Ling Tian was taken aback by how easygoing the Supreme Elder of the Wang clan was. The other party was frank and agreed immediately, causing him to feel guilty.
‘Forget it… I’ll just owe him and the clan a favor. In the future, I’ll definitely repay them,’ Duan Ling Tian consoled himself inwardly and pulled himself together.
At the same time, the Supreme Elder of the Wang clan also expressed his intentions to the Clan Leader and the Grand Elder of the Wang clan. He told them to go along with Duan Ling Tian’s wishes.
No one objected. After all, in their eyes, ‘Li Feng’ was an extremely powerful peerless prodigy who came from outside of the Divine Sand Realm.
“I understand, Supreme Elder. I’ll deal with this matter properly,” Wang Kui, the Clan Leader of the Wang clan, said.
Following that, Wang Kui led Duan Ling Tian out as he said, “Young Master Li Feng, I’ll arrange for a place for you to stay first. After that, I’ll send someone to bring Luo Yu over to meet you…”
