Chapter 3706: Opening the Divine Sanctuary
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Avast world opened up before Duan Ling Tian’s eyes as soon as he stepped out of the Void Gate. When he turned around to look at the Void Gate, he discovered the Void Gate looked no different from the other side.
With just a glance, Duan Ling Tian saw a huge palace suspended in the air nearby, looking like a huge beast looking down on the land beneath it. The tightly-closed palace doors were huge, occupying one-third of the front of the palace. It looked ancient, and its architecture was exquisite. Each and every
place, from the small doorknob to the huge doors, were covered with complex lines and patterns.
Six people hovered in the air in groups of two at this moment. Four of them were Liu Dong Ming, Yue Qi, and their respective companions whom Duan Ling Tian had met earlier.
‘There were two unfamiliar faces there. One of them was a thin and frail young man who looked as beautiful as a woman. He was dressed in a white robe and held a folded fand in his hand. He looked like an elegant and erudite scholar. The other person was a handsome young man dressed in a red robe. He
carried a long saber at his waist. He was tall and muscular, and his face was equally as masculine as his body. The two young men’s appearances complemented each other.
“The young man in white in Sima Han.” Wu Feng’s Voice Transmission rang in Duan Ling Tian’s ears in a timely manner.
Needless to say, even without Wu Feng’s Voice Transmission, Duan Ling Tian knew the white-clad young had to be Sima Han whom Wu Feng and Du Qian Jun had described as a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Of the two young men, the white-clad young man fit this description more. Although the red-clad
young man was handsome, he did not look like the deceptively frail person that Wu Feng and Du Qian Jun had spoken about.
“I’s been a while since we last met, but all of you still look as good as ever,” Sima Han said as he nodded at Wu Feng, Du Qian Jun, and the two men. His smile looked sincere and was like the refreshing spring breeze. He truly looked harmless with his frail physique and feminine facial features.
Nevertheless, he had an air of majesty about him that made it seem like he towered above everyone. He was the kind of person that others would have a hard time trying to figure out how to attack.
Although it was just a fleeting feeling, Duan Ling Tian could tell Sima Han was not easy to deal with and was extraordinary. After meeting Sima Han, he agreed with Wu Feng and Du Qian Jun’s words. Based on his first impression of Sima Han and the unconcealable confidence in Sima Han’s eyes, he could
not help but put his guards up. In fact, he would not have felt so vigilant if Liu Dong Ming and Yue Qi joined forces; Sima Han was clearly harder to deal with.
Apart from that, Duan Ling Tian also noticed that when Sima Han spoke, the red-clad young man had subconsciously looked at Sima Han with a respectful and fearful expression on his face. Although the expression appeared for just a moment, it did not escape his notice. He could tell the red-clad young
man’s reverence and fear were not feigned. With this- it was easy for him to see that the red-clad young man truly acknowledged Sima Han’s capabilities.
Previously, Wu Feng and Du Qian Jun had said that strength-wise, Sima Han was no match for them. When Duan Ling Tian recalled their words, he thought to himself, ‘Sima Han is definitely hiding his strength, and he must be incredibly smart and cunning. I have a feeling he’s rather evil as well”
Duan Ling Tian grew even warier of Sima Han. He had a feeling that out of everyone present, Sima Han was the most dangerous. Even Du Qian Jun, the grandson of Du Zhan, the Supreme Elder of the 10,000 Devil Sect, who possessed a king-grade flying ship was nowhere close to being as dangerous as
Sima Han was.
After living two lives, Duan Ling Tian trusted his instincts very much. Those gave him the feeling that Sima Han gave him always ended up being incredibly strong and evil.
“Sima Han, stop talking nonsense.” Du Qian Jun did not seem to have a good relationship with Sima Han. He did not even pretend to be cordial. He said impatiently and bluntly, “Since we’re all here, let’s open up the Divine Sanctuary so we can enter. After that, it’s every man for himself.”
As soon as Du Qian Jun’s voice fell, he heard a sigh being transmitted through Voice Transmission before a voice said, “Elder Du Zhan has always been calm and composed. Why is his grandson so hot-tempered and impatient? Du Qian Jun, if you don’t reign in your temper, you’ll get in trouble sooner or
later.”
Upon hearing the Voice Transmission, Du Qian Jun’s eyes widened and his expression soured immediately. He looked at Sima Han in disbelief as he asked through Voice Transmission, “How do you know my identity? Did Wu Yi Shan or his companion tell you about it?”
After saying that, Du Qian Jun instinctively turned to look at Wu Feng and Duan Ling Tian with anger and vigilance shining in his eyes.
‘Wu Feng noticed Du Qian Jun’s abnormal reaction and asked with a frown, “What’s wrong?”
On the other hand, Duan Ling Tian’s eyes narrowed. Since he had been looking at Sima Han, he had seen Sima Han looking at Du Qian Jun before Du Qian Jun suddenly changed. He wondered inwardly, ‘What did Sima Han say to Du Qian Jun to make Du Qian Jun react in such a way?
‘When Duan Ling Tian saw the anger and wariness in Du Qian Jun’s eyes, he frowned slightly as he turned back to look at Sima Han.
At this time, Du Qian Jun suddenly calmed down. Then, he said, “Sima Han, did you hear what I said? Let’s go.”
“Of course. If the other two are fine with this, then we can go in now,” Sima Han said before he smiled at Liu Dong Ming and Yue Qi.
Liu Dong Ming and Yue Qi said in unison, “We can go whenever you’re ready, Sima Han.”
Based on the duo’s words, it was clear they were going to follow Sima Han’s lead. Naturally, this did not mean anything. They would not hesitate to attack Sima Han if they had any conflicts of interest in the Divine Sanctuary. They only temporarily decided to follow Sima Han’ss lead due to the presence of
the disciples from the Hidden Fog Sect and the 10,000 Devils Sect, which were lord-rank sects.
“Are you ready?” Du Qian Jun asked as he looked at Wu Feng and Duan Ling Tian.
“Alright, let’s just open the Divine Sanctuary now,” Wu Feng said. The entire point of this was to enter the Divine Sanctuary, after all. There was no need to waste time unnecessarily.
“Alright. The five of us who hold the keys will open the door while our companions will destroy the Formation. With this, we can also ensure we won’t be stabbed in our backs,” Sima Han said.
‘Wu Feng, Du Qian Jun, and the other two men naturally did not have any objections.
Duan Ling Tian and the other four men’s companions stepped back as the other five people walked toward the door of the Divine Sanctuary. They watched as the five men brought out a copper key each before inserting them into the five keyholes on the door.
The five keyholes shone with a different color light each: gold, green, blue, red, and yellowish-brown. The colors corresponded to the five elements, which were metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
At this time, Duan Ling Tian’s eyes were trained on Sima Han and Du Qian Jun’s backs. What happened earlier was still on his mind. He had a feeling that something important must have transpired between the duo earlier.
‘Du Qian Jun clearly looked at Senior Brother Wu and me with anger and vigilance earlier. What did Sima Han say to make him look at us in that manner? He obviously thinks we’ve done something. What is it that he thinks we did? Duan Ling Tian wondered inwardly.
After a moment, Duan Ling Tian said to Wu Feng through Voice Transmission, “Senior Brother Wu, did you tell anyone through Voice Transmission about Du Qian Jun’s identity?”
‘Wu Feng, who had just inserted the key into the keyhole, was briefly stunned by Duan Ling Tian’s question. Then, he replied through Voice Transmission, “No. Why?”
Duan Ling Tian did not reply to Wu Feng. After receiving Wu Feng’s reply, many thoughts appeared in his mind. He speculated inwardly, ‘Sima Han may have long found out about Du Qian Jun’s identity and said as much as through his Voice Transmission to Du Qian Jun. However, after a while, Du Qian
Jun calmed down visibly. At that time, Sima Han must have told him that we didn’t expose him. With that, the matter has passed…
However, Duan Ling Tian did not fail to notice that after Du Qian Jun calmed down earlier, he had looked at Sima Han with a slightly shocked and complex expression on his face. With this, he speculated that Sima Han’s identity must be extraordinary as well. Otherwise, there was no reason to explain why
the grandson of the Supreme Elder of the 10,000 Devils Sect would react in that manner.
At this time, Sima Han suddenly said, “Move back!”
When Wu Feng and the other three retreated, a thunderous sound rang in the air, interrupting Duan Ling Tian’s thoughts..
