Chapter 3846: Duan Ling Tian to the Rescue
The death of the twenty disciples from the Tai Yi Sect caused a huge commotion in Tai Yi City. It did not take for word of it to spread to Flying Dragon City as well.
Contrary to the gloomy atmosphere in the Tai Yi Sect, the members of the Flying Dragon Sect were in high spirits.
“A group with many advanced Kings of Gods in the Tai Yi Sect was annihilated?”
“It’s the work of someone from our Flying Dragon Sect?”
“Did any of our Kings of Gods perish on the King Battlefield?”
Those at the entrance of the King Battlefield in Flying Dragon City looked at the Soul Pearls curiously and found all the Soul Pearls were intact.
“No one died!”
“Hey, did Duan Ling Tian enter the King Battlefield? I don’t see his Soul Pearl…”
“It’s not mandatory to leave one’s Soul Pearl behind before entering the King Battlefield. It’s clear he’s confident about his strength and saw no need in leaving his Soul Pearl here.”
“I’m sure some of our members have his Soul Pearls. Perhaps, we can check with them to see if Duan Ling Tian is still alive?”
It did not take long for someone to approach Dongfang Yan Nian, a White Dragon Elder, to ask about Duan Ling Tian’s status. Hence, news soon spread that Duan Ling Tian was also alive. With that, it was confirmed that no Kings of Gods from the Flying Dragon Sect had died.
…
The atmosphere in the Tai Yi Sect was depressing. It dealt a huge blow to their morale when they found out that not only did they lose 20 Kings of Gods, but all of the Kings of Gods from the Flying Dragon Sect were alive and well.
The Kings of Gods from the Tai Yi Sect, who were about to enter the King Battlefield, were greatly affected by this news, causing them to feel reluctant to enter the battlefield.
“Will we suffer the same fate if we enter the King Battlefield?”
“I don’t want to die. Let’s form a larger group before we enter the King Battlefield. The larger our group is, the safer we’ll be. It doesn’t matter even if it’ll take a longer time for us to meet the minimum requirements.”
“That’s right! Look, those people there seem quite strong, and they’re recruiting people as well. Why don’t we join them?”
The deaths of the twenty disciples from the Tai Yi Sect prompted the other disciples to form even larger groups. Most of the groups had at least thirty disciples. The groups with fewer than thirty people usually had more advanced Kings of Gods.
There were many unknown advanced Kings of Gods in the Flying Dragon Sect and Tai Yi Sect who appeared during the Imperial War. Due to the bottlenecks they faced, most of them were closed-door cultivation. Moreover, due to the increasing difficulty of the Heavenly Tribulation, it was even more important for them to increase their strength during closed-door cultivation. As a result, not much was known about them, and most people were unaware of them. Many of them also thought of the Imperial War as a great opportunity to break through and increase their strength so they were all eager to enter the King Battlefield.
…
Duan Ling Tian was unaware of the huge commotion he had stirred up after killing twenty disciples from the Tai Yi Sect. He continued to wander the King Battlefield, searching for his next target.
At this time, a few days had passed, but Duan Ling Tian had yet to encounter anyone.
‘I’ll become a joke if I don’t kill 100 disciples from the Tai Yi Sect.’
Duan Ling Tian knew the chances of him meeting solitary disciples from the Tai Yi Sect were very low. After all, when he announced he was going to kill 100 Tai Yi Sect disciples, not many people had entered the King Battlefield yet. Most of the disciples from the Tai Yi Sectwho entered the King Battlefield were all in huge groups.
Duan Ling Tian flew openly and fearlessly in the King Battlefield. At this moment, his eyes narrowed slightly as he sensed movements in the surroundings. His ears twitched slightly before he suddenly teleported away. When he reappeared, he was in the sky above a grassland. He saw two groups of people fighting in the sky, and one group clearly held the advantage.
At this time, a middle-aged man carrying an identity token from the Flying Dragon Sect cried out, “Retreat!”
A young Tai Yi Sect disciple laughed sinisterly. “All of you will die here today!”
Following that, a seven-foot-long spear appeared in the young man’s hand, and he threw it out. It glowed with a golden light as it sailed in the air toward one of the intermediate Kings of Gods from the Flying Dragon Sect.
Whoosh!
Duan Ling Tian suddenly appeared in front of the group of disciples from the Tai Yi Sect who wore expressions of despair on their faces. Then, he brandished the prominent divine sword that had appeared in his hand, stirring a spatial storm that deflected the seven-foot-long spear.
Upon seeing this, the disciple from the Flying Dragon Sect, who had narrowly escaped death, heaved a huge sigh of relief. He looked at Duan Ling Tian, whose back was facing him, and expressed his gratitude. “Thank you, senior brother, for saving my life!”
At the same time, a few disciples from the Flying Dragon Sect exclaimed, “It’s Duan Ling Tian!”
“You’re right! It’s Duan Ling Tian!”
The middle-aged man, who was clearly the leader of the group of disciples from the Flying Dragon Sect, was an inner deacon. At this moment, he looked at Duan Ling Tian with a surprised expression on his face.
Duan Ling Tian looked at the middle-aged man and said casually, “I want half of these people’s identity tokens.”
Although this group of Tai Yi Sect disciples was stronger than the group he killed previously, Duan Ling Tian was still confident about killing them. He naturally knew that he would not be able to exert his full strength since the other Flying Dragon Sect disciples were present as well.
“Of course.” The middle-aged man nodded readily.
“Alright,” Duan Ling Tian said. At the same time, the sword in his hand thrummed. Following that, the spatial storm raged, disrupting the space to prevent disciples from the Tai Yi Sect who had comprehended the law of space from leaving.
“Kill them!” the middle-aged man said to the others.
The Flying Dragon Sect disciples, who were frightened earlier, charged out fearlessly at this moment.
As for the group from the Tai Yi Sect, their eyes brightened when they discovered the newcomer was none other than Duan Ling Tian. After all, Duan Ling Tian was currently worth 300,000 contribution points. However, soon enough, their excitement was dampened when they realized that Duan Ling Tian was not alone. Since the situation was unfavorable to them now, they tried to escape. Alas, they discovered that they could not escape.
When the Flying Dragon Sect disciples attacked, those from the Tai Yi Sect could only defend themselves. After all, they still had to deal with Duan Ling Tian. Before Duan Ling Tian’s arrival, their overall strength was better than that of the group from the Flying Dragon Sect. With Duan Ling Tian’s arrival, the scales had tipped to the other side.
Finally, an advanced King of Gods from the Tai Yi Sect said icily, “Gather around! Let’s get out of here together! Even if Duan Ling Tian is here, they won’t be able to stop all of us from leaving.”
The Tai Yi Sect disciples were filled with hope upon hearing these words.
“Well, let’s not talk about if I can stop everyone. I’m sure I can stop you,” Duan Ling Tian said coldly when he suddenly appeared in front of the advanced King of Gods from the Tai Yi Sect. He pushed his hand out, launching a sword ray that quickly reduced his opponent into a mist of blood.
Blood splattered on the faces of the disciples from the Tai Yi Sect standing nearby. When they regained their senses, all of them ran away frantically.
“Run!”
