Chapter 3438: The Five Divine Elements Exposed!
Duan Ling Tian naturally remembered the Elementary Devouring Tactic. When he was in the mundane realm, he had relied on the Elementary Devouring Tactic a lot to increase the might of the Sovereign Heart Sword.
During the time when he was searching the Devata Realms for his family and friends, Elder Huo’s words had stirred up his memories. Now that Feng Qing Yang mentioned the Primeval Heaven, his memories were stirred up again. He sighed at how small the world seemed.
‘The Heavenly Emperor of the Primeval Heave was one of the top three strongest Heavenly Emperors until master came out of the Asura Hell. Moreover, there are also rumors that master has already attained godhood, causing the Heavenly Emperor of the Primeval Heaven to drop to fourth place…’ Duan Ling Tian had learned about this from Elder Huo.
Feng Qing Yang was the third strongest Heavenly Emperors. One of the two Heavenly Emperors above him was confirmed to have become a god while the one was, similar to Feng Qing Yang, suspected to have also attained godhood.
Although the Heavenly Emperor of the Primeval Heaven was also suspected to have attained godhood, he was ranked third previously because he was weaker than the Heavenly Emperor who was ranked second. As for why he was pushed down to fourth place even if he and Feng Qing Yang were both similarly suspected to have attained godhood, one had to understand that Feng Qing Yang had emerged from the Asura Hell, one of the seven deadliest places in the Devata Realms, unscathed. In the history of all Devata Realms, not one titled Celestial Emperors, from One Star God of War to Eight Star God of War, had walked out alive from the Asura Hell.
Since there were no known accounts of Nine Star Gods of War entering the Asura Hell, some people debated there was a possibility they could survive the Asura Hell, but most people thought it was unlikely since the Asura Hell was dangerous even to ordinary gods.
At this time, Feng Qing Yang said to Duan Ling Tian, “There’s still a year left. During this time, come live with me. If you don’t understand anything, you can speak to me. I didn’t disturb you over the last 100 years because I hope you’ll be able to create and comprehend your own Dao based on my Sword Dao and the sword marks I left behind. I used my Sword Dao along with the law of destruction, therefore, it’s impossible for you to replicate my Sword Dao completely unless you comprehend the law of destruction as well. However, that will take a long time. Although you can certainly use my Sword Dao along with the law of space you comprehended, my hope is that you’ll be able to create and comprehend your own Dao with the law of space based on my Sword Dao. I have a strong feeling that if you succeed, the might of your Sword Dao might even be stronger than mine… The law of space is one of the Four Supreme Laws, after all. Moreover, along with the Law of Time, it’s known to be notoriously hard to comprehend.”
Feng Qing Yang continued to say, “In the following year, there’s no need for you to comprehend my Sword Dao. Let’s focus on creating and comprehending your own Dao based on my Sword Dao. Naturally, if you feel my advice doesn’t suit you, you should choose to walk the path you’re comfortable with. After all, I can’t guarantee 100% that my advice is suitable for you…”
Based on Feng Qing Yang’s words, it was obvious he had given much thought to his matter. He was not rigid and understood that Duan Ling Tian had his own path to walk. He knew that his path could not be replicated and could only serve as a guide.
“Yes, Master.” Duan Ling Tian easily agreed to Feng Qing Yang’s suggestion. In fact, even if Feng Qing Yang did not speak, he knew he had to walk on his own path. He had spoken to the Five Divine Elements previously and discovered he could not perfectly comprehend his master’s Sword Dao because of the law of destruction.
…
After Duan Ling Tian moved in with Feng Qing Yang, he spent most of his time cultivating. When he was not cultivating, he would seek Feng Qing Yang out for advice. Some of the questions were not recent, and he had those questions for a long time.
After Feng Qing Yang patiently answered Duan Ling Tian’s question, Duan Ling Tian discovered it was just as Feng Qing Yang had said before; Feng Qing Yang’s advice was only half suitable for him. Therefore, he had to forge a new path for himself.
As the days passed, Duan Ling Tian’s Dao that was created with the law of space gradually took shape.
Feng Qing Yang was filled with praise when he saw Duan Ling Tian’s speed of improvement. He said to Duan Ling Tian, “I’m afraid all the peerless talents under 1,000 years old will only serve as your foil during the Devata Realms’ Battle of the geniuses.” Inwardly, he thought to himself, ‘This includes that peerless genius from the Title Temple…’
Following that, Feng Qing Yang muttered to himself as his eyes flashed, “The Title Temple intends to recruit peerless geniuses with the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit. Alas, I’m afraid they’ll suffer a loss this time and lose the fruit to the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven.”
“Master, when are we setting off?” Duan Ling Tian asked. He was ready to leave. Since his family and friends were in his Little World, there was not much preparation he needed to make.
“Tomorrow,” Feng Qing Yang said, “There’s something I need to discuss with Meng Luo today.”
“Understood.”
…
In the afternoon the next day.
After Duan Ling Tian stepped into the Transportation Formation in the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heavenly with Feng Qing Yang, he asked, “Master, this is your first time in the Primeval Heaven?”
Duan Ling Tian discovered this was the first time Feng Qing Yang had come to the Primeval Heaven. Nevertheless, they did not have a problem finding their way to the Heavenly Palace of the Primeval Heaven.
“Master, when is the exact date of the Devata Realms’ Battle of Geniuses?” Duan Ling Tian asked curiously.
“I’m not sure about the specifics as well. We’ll find out once we reach the Heavenly Palace. It’ll take some time for everyone to arrive after all…” Feng Qing Yang said.
Duan Ling Tian nodded.
As they continued their journey to the Heavenly Palace of the Primeval Heaven, Feng Qing Yang suddenly said words that scared the soul out of Duan Ling Tian’s body.
“It’s good that you possess the Five Divine Elements, but you shouldn’t be overly reliant on them…”
Duan Ling Tian quickly regained his composure and calmly asked, “Master, you……what do you mean?”
Naturally, Feng Qing Yang could see through Duan Ling Tian’s calmness. He said with a smile, “There’s no need to be nervous. When I first met you, I’ve already sensed the auras of the Five Divine Elements on you. Moreover, their forms shouldn’t be low either. Most importantly, most people only have one Divine Element, but you actually have all Five Divine Elements… Apart from that, I can also sense a strong vitality energy. If I’m not mistaken, your Little World must contain a supreme treasure that holds frightening Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy… This treasure should be able to help one comprehend the law of life as well…”
Duan Ling Tian smiled wryly when he heard Feng Qing Yang’s words. “Master, how did you find out?”
Feng Qing Yang smiled faintly, “After one’s cultivation base has reached a certain stage, one would be able to sense many things that are usually hidden. In my opinion, only a powerful god will be able to sense the auras on you. You’re a Celestial Emperor now, after all… The reason I’m able to sense the auras is due to a treasure I managed to refine during my time in the Asura Hell. This treasure has no other use but to increase my power of perception by more than ten times…”
Despite Feng Qing Yang’s modest words, Duan Ling Tian knew how terrifying it was for one’s perception to be so high. One’s perception was connected to one’s Divine Consciousness, but it was separate from one’s Divine Consciousness.
If it had been 100 years ago, Duan Ling Tian might not have understood the power of perception. However, he knew now that with such keen senses, it meant that every slight change in one’s surroundings would be in one’s grasp. If one were in a battle, one would be able to easily grasp the opponent’s weakness.
“I didn’t expect master to have such a fortuitous encounter,” Duan Ling Tian said. He smiled wryly; he did not expect his master to see through him completely.”I would not have mentioned this originally.”
Feng Qing Yang shook his head. “In fact, I didn’t plan to mention this. However, we’re going to the Heavenly Palace of the Primeval Heaven, and the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses is organized by the Title Temple. I’m afraid there’ll be gods among us… Therefore, I wanted to advise you to cut off your Little World from the outside world while we’re in the Heavenly Palace of the Primeval Heaven… Like I said, ordinary gods are unlikely to sense the auras from your Little World, but who can guarantee they don’t have a treasure or technique like me that allows them to see through everything?”
Duan Ling Tian broke out in cold sweat when he heard Feng Qing Yang’s warning. He had thought he had hidden everything very well, but it seemed like he had been at risk of exposure all this time! With this warning, he spoke to his family and friends and the Five Divine Elements, explaining the matter to them, before he cut off the connection between his Little World and the outside world.
Once Duan Ling Tian cut off the connection, the people in his Little World would no longer be able to observe the outside world nor would they be able to leave unless they managed to forcefully break their way out. Apart from that, they would not be able to communicate with Duan Ling Tian at all. Finally, during this time, Duan Ling Tian would not be able to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in his Little World.
