War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

The fight between Duan Ling Tian and Xie Zong happened so quickly, and the winner and the loser of the fight became apparent just as quickly!

Duan Ling Tian had completely overpowered Xie Zong!

“I didn’t even use my offensive Divine Ability,” Duan Ling Tian said to Xie Zong through Voice Transmissions. Xie Zong felt humiliated when he was sent flying from the forces of the Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapons. He was so angry he threw up another mouthful of blood. Duan Ling Tian’s words undoubtedly enraged Xie Zong even more. He was already in such a wretched state, but Duan Ling Tian told him that he did not even use his offensive Divine Ability. If Duan Ling Tian had used his offensive Divine Ability, did it mean Duan Ling Tian could easily kill him?

After a while, Xie Zong finally managed to steady himself. His expression darkened as he looked at Duan Ling Tian with killing intent. “Duan Ling Tian, do you really think you’ve defeated me just because you’re stronger than me?”

“What? Are you going to seek for help by sending out a Voice Transmission jade token?” Duan Ling Tian sneered when he heard Xie Zong’s words. He knew what Xie Zong was thinking but he was not worried at all. He honestly did not care.

Duan Ling Tian was much stronger than Xie Zong, even if Xie Zong sent a Voice Transmission jade token to seek help, he would be able to kill Xie Zong before help arrived. He would have been long gone when the person Xie Zong sought help from arrived.

Suddenly, Elder Huo said, “Don’t forget about the Minor Major Mirror Image Talisman.”

It was clearly a reminder. After Duan Ling Tian killed Yao Bu Ji, the Leader of the Ground Ax Alliance, he returned to Sin City and researched on the various talismans available in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land.

After Duan Ling Tian spoke to Elder Huo, Duan Ling Tian realized it was the Minor Major Mirror Image Talisman that exposed his identity to Yao Bu Ji!

Upon hearing Elder Huo’s words, Duan Ling Tian nodded before he said, “Don’t worry. Before I kill him, I’ll retrieve the Minor Image Talisman from him if he’s carrying one. However. I’m not in a hurry to kill him, I’m going to torture him and let him know what despair feels like.” Duan Ling Tian’s voice was so cold that it seemed as though the temperature in the surroundings had dropped a few degrees.

The hatred Duan Ling Tian felt for Xie Zong for Elder Ku’s death, the deaths of the Black Armored Guards, and for forcefully taking away his Devilseal Tablet was not something he would be able to easily let go.

Minor Major Mirror Image Talisman was a set of two talismans. They were the Minor Mirror Image Talisman and Major Mirror Image Talisman.

If the person carrying the Minor Mirror Image Talisman was killed or if it was activated, it would transmit a video of what happened to the person carrying the Major Mirror Image Talisman through a mirror image. All the person needed to do to watch what happened was to crush the Major Mirror Image Talisman.

As a Black Kshetra Sect elder and the only son of the Golden Lion King, one of the Black Kshetra Sect’s Four Great Karmapas, it was impossible that Xie Zong did not carry a Minor Mirror Image Talisman with him!

Duan Ling Tian had already planned for this. Before he killed Xie Zong, he would severely injure him. At that time, he would search and take the Minor Mirror Image Talisman from him before killing him.

However, would everything go as smoothly as Duan Ling Tian had planned?

“I don’t need anyone else’s help. Just me alone is enough to kill you!” Xie Zong sneered when he saw Duan Ling Tian’s contemptuous expression.

Hu!

As soon as Xie Zong finished speaking, he raised his hand and a talisman glimmering with violet light appeared in his hand. Upon closer inspection, one would be able to tell it was a Dao Talisman.

The Dao Talisman was not violet. It was only surrounded by tiny flashes of violet lightning. Once it was activated, the air and the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy would be sucked dry.

“Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman!” Duan Ling Tian exclaimed. His expression changed dramatically when he realized what kind of Dao Talisman it was. When he was researching Dao Talismans in Sin City, he had also learned about the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman. He knew that the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman was a powerful offensive Dao Talisman that could only be created by a quasi celestial-grade Dao Talismans Master.

The Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talismans were rumored to be able to kill all cultivators below the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage! It did not matter if they were humans or beasts.

Even powerhouses at the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage would be severely injured by the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman. Even if they were not killed, they would be on the brink of death.

Generally, only powerhouses with cultivation bases at the Fifth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage or higher were able to withstand the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman.

Xie Zong laughed when he saw Duan Ling Tian’s expression had changed drastically when he realized what kind of Dao Talisman it was. It took a while before he stopped laughing.

“Duan Ling Tian, I didn’t think you’ll be able to identify the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman…” Xie Zong sneered. He did not expect a country bumpkin from the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land would recognize a top-grade Dao Talisman in the Upper Province.

Xie Zong’s father, the Golden Lion King and one of the Four Great Karmapas of the Black Kshetra Sect, had given the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman to him for protection. His father had expended much effort to obtain this Dao Talisman.

“Duan Ling Tian, you can consider yourself to have lived a great life if you die from the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman!” Xie Zong said again without waiting for Duan Ling Tian to respond. As soon as he finished speaking, he did not waste any time and threw the Dao Talismans that had mini flashes of violet lightning around it toward Duan Ling Tian.

Subsequently, Xie Zong opened his mouth in preparation to say the word ‘Activate’. Once that word was uttered, the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman would release a destructive force.

Time seemed to have stood still.

At the moment Xie Zong opened his mouth…

Xiu!

During the crucial moment, before Xie Zong could say the word to activate the Dao Talisman, the short-lived sound of a sword cry rang in the air again.

At this moment, Xie Zong briefly saw the sword’s gleam again.

‘Wait! This sword isn’t the Thousand Inscriptions Saint Sword. It’s much stronger than the Thousand Inscriptions Saint Sword!’ This was Xie Zong’s last thought before he died. He did not have time to react before blood bloomed from the wound in between his brows.

Slash!

A moment after the bloody wound appeared, the sound of a sharp sword slicing into flesh and bones rang in the air.

Blood kept gushing out from the wound between Xie Zong’s brows as his body fell to the ground. His mouth was still wide open even though he could no longer speak.

“Oh, no!” Duan Ling Tian’s expression changed slightly after he successfully killed Xie Zong with the Jasper Celestial Sword. This was because he could feel a wave of energy from a Dao Talisman that was clearly the Minor Mirror Image Talisman. He was very certain of this. The incident here must have been transmitted to the carrier of the Major Mirror Image Talisman. There was no doubt the carrier of the Major Mirror Image Talisman was the Golden Lion King, one of the Four Great Karmapas of the Black Kshetra Sect.

“I couldn’t do it in time.’ Although Duan Ling Tian felt slightly troubled, he did not give it much thought since there was nothing he could do at this point.

Earlier, Duan Ling Tian had to act quickly. He had no time to search for the Minor Mirror Image Talisman that Xie Zong carried.

Once Xie Zong uttered the word ‘Activate, the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman would release a destructive force that would kill anyone below the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Under those circumstances, Duan Ling Tian would not have been able to withstand that attack even if he cast all his defensive skills and the defensive Divine Ability, the Black Turtle’s Barrier. He might be able to block some of the force from the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman if he wielded the Jasper Celestial Sword with all his strength. However, after that, he would run out of strength and be left vulnerable.

At that time, even if Duan Ling Tian managed to survive the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman, he would not have any strength left to fight Xie Zong. Xie Zong would definitely kill him. At the crucial moment, he quickly brought the Jasper Celestial Sword out to kill Xie Zong before he could activate the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman.

It seemed like everything turned out well but Duan Ling Tian could not help but feel uneasy. This was because he had taken a huge risk.

If the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman was activated at the same moment Duan Ling Tian attacked with the Jasper Celestial Sword with the help of the third stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword, he would be killed along with Xie Zong!

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian sighed in relief. ‘Luckily, Xie Zong was a step slower than me.’

After Duan Ling Tian regained his composure, he put the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman into his Spatial Ring. From now on, the Violet Myrtle Celestial Thunder Talisman would become one of his trump cards. Its strength was comparable to the strength of the Jasper Celestial Sword!

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian did not forget to ask Elder Huo for help in devouring Xie Zong’s Innate Spiritual Root. “Elder Huo, help me devour his innate Spiritual Root!”

It was quite a surprise actually. As the only son of the Golden Lion King, one of the Four Great Karmapas of the Black Kshetra Sect, Xie Zong only possessed a light blue Innate Spiritual Root.

Although Xie Zong’s light blue Innate Spiritual Root would not improve Duan Ling Tian’s Innate Spiritual Root much since he possessed an indigo one, he was still happy since it was better than nothing.

“I wonder if the Devilseal Tablet is in his possession.” Duan Ling Tian took Xie Zong’s Spatial Ring and established ownership over it before he looked at what was inside. With just a glance, he saw there were many things stored in Xie Zong’s Spatial Ring.
