Realization finally dawned on Duan Ling Tian after he listened to the Chaos Divine Flame’s explanation. Since Huang’er had merged with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, she was greatly influenced by the sword’s loyalty and would prioritize him above everything else. With this revelation, he decided to test her. He deliberately asked, “What would you do if I reneged on the promise and refused to help Ling Jue Yun avenge his clan?”
“If master is unwilling, Huang’er won’t insist on it,” Huang’er replied without any hesitation. Her expressions did not change at all, and there were no signs of unwillingness or unhappiness on her face.
With this answer, Duan Ling Tian was convinced Huang’er had truly prioritized him above everything else. Then, he shook his head and said, “I was just kidding. Don’t worry, I will keep my promise.”
There were no changes in Huang’er’s expression when she heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. She remained expressionless, not even the slightest trace of happiness could be seen on his face. It was obvious that she would support him unconditionally no matter what he did.
‘It’s really true that nothing else matters to her now except for me,” Duan Ling Tian thought to himself. He felt relieved. After all, he had been concerned about Huang’er independent will. It would be troublesome if she continued to think about Ling Jue Yun and his clan after becoming the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword’s soul. What if she betrayed him if Ling Jue Yun became his opponent? Who would want to keep a ticking time bomb at their sides? Therefore, he was very satisfied with Huang’er’s change in attitude.
“Brother Ling Tian, she’s…” Huan’er seemed worried by the fact that a woman had appeared by Duan Ling Tian’s side. Although the woman was not as beautiful as her, the woman possessed qualities that she lacked.
“Huan’er, this is Huang’er, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword’s soul. I’ve told you about this in the past,” Duan Ling Tian said with a smile, “She has completely merged with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword so she’s finally able to manifest a physical body.”
‘So she’s Brother Ling Tian’s Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword’s soul?’
“I really have to thank this place,” Duan Ling Tian explained to Huan’er, “Due to the hidden object in the Formation, Huang’er successfully merged with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword in just ten years.”
At this moment, Huang’er who was still on her knees suddenly turned into a seven-color sword ray before entering Duan Ling Tian’s body.
“Huang’er, what’s hidden in the Formation?” Duan Ling Tian asked curiously.
“My lord, it’s an Eternal Ice Marrow,” Huang’er replied honestly, “Its energy is almost depleted now because I used it to merge with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword. Based on my calculation, the icy energy in the valley will disappear in about 100 years.”
Based on Huang’er’s words, Glacier Valley would revert to an ordinary valley after 100 years. At that time, there would be no advantages to cultivating in the valley, and there would be no law of ice to comprehend.
‘I didn’t think Huang’er’s successful merge with the sword would result in the end of the Snow Horizon Celestial Sect’s good fortune. I hope I’ll be able to compensate them in the remaining 50 years.’ Duan Ling Tian would not have known about this place if it were not for the members of the Snow Horizon Celestial Sect. It could be said that they played a big part in Huang’er being able to completely merge with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword in such a short time. Therefore, he felt indebted to the Snow Horizon Celestial Sect and felt guilty that the sect would lose such a good cultivation ground.
After a moment, Duan Ling Tian asked Huang’er, “How strong are you now?” He knew she used to be an artifact soul of a powerhouse in the Realm of Gods. Although her artifact was destroyed in the past, she was still rather powerful.
“My cultivation base is the same as yours, my lord… Artifact souls possess cultivation bases similar to their masters,” Huang’er replied, “However, the profundities I’ve comprehended are still president. However, since you’re not able to unleash the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword’s full potential, my usage of the profundities is limited as well. In conclusion, my strength should be similar to yours.”
“What law did you comprehend?” Duan Ling Tian asked.
“Artifact souls usually comprehend the law of destruction,” Huang’er replied.
“The law of destruction?” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up. Based on his knowledge, the law of destruction was similar to the law of light and the law of darkness; they were different from the elemental laws. Even the law of ice, the law of thunder, and the law of wind were derivatives of main elemental laws. In terms of strength, laws like the law of destruction, the law of light, and the law of death were only below the Four Supreme Laws. After that, they were followed by derivatives of elemental laws such as the law of ice, the law of thunder, and the law of wind. At the very bottom were the main elemental laws.
“One can comprehend main elemental laws and their derivative laws such as the law of ice, the law of thunder, and the law of wind from Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. However, it depends on luck to be able to comprehend the Four Supreme Law and the non-elemental laws like the law of destruction, the law of light, and the law of darkness.” Duan Ling Tian was aware of this fact.
“Master, you’ll be able to comprehend the law of destruction if you use the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword frequently… As the owner of a Devata Artifact, it’s not difficult for you to comprehend the law of destruction. However, it’d still be difficult to comprehend it to higher stages,” Huang’er said.
Even if Huang’er did not say so, Duan Ling Tian knew it would not be difficult to comprehend the law of destruction or any law for that matter. However, it was difficult to comprehend them to higher stages.
For now, Duan Ling Tian had no plans of comprehending the law of destruction. It would not benefit him in any way now. After all, he had comprehended the law of space, one of the Four Supreme Laws, to rather high stages. It would be impossible for the law of destruction to match the law of space’s strength.
‘With the Supreme Powerhouse Divinity, I won’t face any difficulties when comprehending the law of space. Before I comprehend the profundities from the law of space to the mastery stage, there’s no need for me to waste my time comprehending other laws.’
Although the Chaos Divine Flame, the Profound Divine Metal, and the Chaos Divine Earth could help Duan Ling Tian comprehend the law of fire, the law of metal, and the law of earth respectively, they could not compare to the Supreme Powerhouse Divinity at all.
It had to be said that the three Divine Elements would not leave Duan Ling Tian now even if Duan Ling Tian no longer wanted to be their host. After all, it would only become more and more beneficial to them if Duan Ling Tian grew stronger. If they were to encounter a higher form of Divine Elements, they would be able to defeat them and devour them with his help.
…
Another 20 years had passed in just a blink of an eye after Huang’er successfully merged with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian who was cultivating in Glacier Valley heard someone calling out to him.
“Lord Revered Elder.”
When Duan Ling Tian emerged from the wooden hut, he saw Chai Xiong Yi, the Sect Leader of the Snow Horizon Celestial Sect, standing in the courtyard. He asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Lord Revered Elder, we received news about the emergence of a medicinal herb paradise about a million miles away from the east of Northern Iceland. Many people are rushing there now,” Chai Xiong Yi said, “However, rumor has it that a grade-five force nearby had cut off access to that place before the medicinal herb paradise even appeared. Only members of that force are allowed to enter that place.”
“A medicinal herb paradise?” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up immediately.
In Devata Realms, a medicinal herb paradise was a small realm where various rare medicinal herbs and Celestial Fruits grew. The herbs and fruits there could not be found elsewhere. This was something that the Heavenly Emperor of a Devata Realm created. Only those who had fate with the medicinal herb paradise would be able to enter it and harvest the rare herbs and Celestial Fruits. There were no tests of obstacles in the medicinal herb paradise; the only danger came from others who had entered the paradise as well. For this reason, many forces would try to monopolize the medicinal herb paradise so they could minimize the danger and maximize their harvest in the medicinal herb paradise.
“It’s really a medicinal herb paradise?” Duan Ling Tian asked again for confirmation. After all, medicinal herb paradise rarely appeared, and not everyone was lucky enough to encounter it.
Over the past 30 years, Chai Xiong Yi had brought many pieces of news to Duan Ling Tian regarding Celestial Fruits and Celestial Pills beneficial to Celestial Kings, but only a few pieces of the news were accurate. Moreover, his success in obtaining the Celestial Fruits and Celestial Pills depended on luck as well. There were times when he failed to obtain anything because everyone had harvested the Celestial Fruits and Celestial Pills when he arrived. With that, he gradually grew lazy and no longer bothered. After all, he was not interested in fighting with others over ordinary Celestial Fruits or Celestial Pills. However, a medicinal herb paradise was different!
“I’m almost 100% certain,” Chai Xiong Yi replied, “However, if it’s true that a grade-five has decided to monopolize the place, it’d be difficult for you to enter.”
“There’s no need for you to worry about this.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head. “Where’s the location of the medicinal herbs paradise?”
After he found out about the location of the medicinal herb paradise, Duan Ling Tian did not waste time and brought Huan’er out of Glacier Valley.
At this time, Huan’er had already broken through and become a One Basic Celestial Lord while Duan Ling Tian was now a Ten Directions Celestial King.
