Chapter 3524: Next Destination: Asura Hell!

The Exploding Element Celestial Fruit is the most valuable reward in this year’s Devata Realms’ Battle of Geniuses. The Celestial Fruit could help a Nine Palaces Celestial Emperor become a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor in a short time.

It should be noted that it was extremely difficult to break through from a Nine Palaces Celestial Emperor to a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor even if it was just a stage apart. The time it took could even be longer than the time it took to become a Nine Palaces Celestial Emperor from a One Basic Celestial Emperor. Those who were slightly more talented would take the same amount of time it took them to become a Nine Palaces Celestial Emperor from a Three Talents Celestial Emperor or a Four Phenomena Celestial Emperor to become a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor while those who were incredibly talented would take the same amount of time it took them to become a Nine Palaces Celestial Emperor from a Six Combos Celestial Emperor or a Seven Stars Celestial Emperor.

Based on this, one could see how precious the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit was. By consuming the Celestial Fruit, one would save a lot of time. In turn, this would give one a huge advantage over one’s peers. It was also for this reason everyone had been shocked when they first learned the Title Temple was giving away the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit to the winner of the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses. After all, a treasure like that should have been kept for the Title Temple’s own young geniuses.

At this time, many people began to discuss among themselves when they saw the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit.

“So this is what the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit looks like! Just the fragrance itself is so refreshing! It’s like a spring breeze…”

“Before Tang San Pao’s identity was revealed, I had wondered why the Title Temple was so generous as to use the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit as a reward. I only figured out the reason when Tang San Pao was revealed to belong to the Title Temple and possesses the strength of a Six Star God of War. They must have been confident in his abilities and did not doubt that he would win the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit.”

“Alas, they only paved the road for others to obtain the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit.”

“The Title Temple likely didn’t imagine there would be a monstrous genius like Ling Jue Yun and Duan Ling Tian participating in the Battle of the Geniuses.”

“It’s still not too bad if it’s just Ling Jue Yun alone. After all, he fought to a draw with Tang San Pao. They even agreed earlier to draw lots to decide who will get the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit earlier before their match with Duan Ling Tian. If that was the case, Tang San Pao still has a 50% chance of obtaining the Celestial Fruit. However, with Duan Ling Tian around, he has no chance of obtaining the Celestial Fruit at all.”

“That’s right. Duan Ling Tian’s strength is absolutely terrifying, considering his age. He’s not even a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor yet, but he’s already as strong as a Seven Star God of War. When he becomes a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor, he’ll easily be as strong as a top Eight Star God of War!”

By now, it was clear to everyone that the Title Temple’s plan had failed. They would have to give up the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit to an outsider, which in a way could be considered as helping the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven.

Similar to the young geniuses, the Heavenly Emperors from the various Devata Realms were also discussing this matter. They also felt that the Title Temple had shot themselves in the foot this time.

At this time, Xu Kong Hai said, “Duan Ling Tian, this is one of your rewards for winning the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses. You’ll have to claim your other reward of entering the Title Temple’s chamber of laws by visiting the Title Temple.”

When Xu Kong Hai handed the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit to Duan Ling Tian, there was a hint of hesitance and unwillingness shining in his eyes. Nevertheless, he knew he had no other choice but to hand over the Celestial Fruit. Otherwise, the Title Temple would become a joke for going back on their words. At that time, they would lose everyone’s trust and no talent would want to participate in the Devata Realms’ Battles of the Geniuses in the future. The Title Temple’s reputation would be destroyed beyond repair at that time. Compared to the Title Temple’s reputation, the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit was nothing.

“Thank you, Vice Temple Master Xu,” Duan Ling Tian thanked Xu Kong Hai as he reached out to take the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit.

“There’s no need to thank me. You won by relying on your own strength,” Xu Kong Hai replied with a smile. His smile was warm and friendly, all traces of unwillingness could no longer be seen on his face.

Nevertheless, the friendlier Xu Kong Hai was, the warier Duan Ling Tian became. More often than not, those who seemed kind and amiable outwardly were cunning and vicious. As the saying went, ‘Better the devil you know than the devil you don’t’.

“You can visit the Title Temple in the Solitary Destructive Heaven and look for Temple Master Ye when you want to enter the chamber of laws. He’ll bring you to the main Title Temple at that time,” Xu Kong Hai said before he looked at one of the floating islands in the distance.

Following that, an average-looking middle-aged man with a cold expression and medium build flew out of the floating island. With his long black robe and dark expression, he looked very gloomy. When he arrived before Duan Ling Tian, he said with a forced smile that looked more like a grimace, “I’m Ye Ya, the Temple Master of the Title Temple in the Solitary Destructive Heaven. You can look for me there when you want to go to the chamber of laws. Just give your name at the entrance when you arrive…”

Duan Ling Tian nodded. “I apologize in advance for having to trouble you, Temple Master Ye.”

“No problem.” Ye Ya shook his head and returned to his seat.

Following that, Feng Qing Yang said, “Let’s go!”

A rare smile could be seen on Feng Qing Yang’s face when he saw his disciple holding the Exploding Element Celestial Fruit.

Soon after, the master and disciple vanished from everyone’s sight in just a blink of an eye.

Everyone at the venue was still stunned. It took a while before the silence was broken, and everyone began to discuss fervently among themselves again.

“Duan Ling Tian is too powerful. Who knew he had been holding so much of this strength back? I have a feeling even during the last match, he didn’t go all out. After all, he only attacked without his weapons, but it was enough to defeat Ling Jue Yun and Tang San Pao. They’re in completely different leagues…”

Ling Jue Yun and Tang San Pao heard many similar remarks as they returned to their seats. Ling Jue Yun was unaffected by the conversations in his surroundings and merely ignored them. On the contrary, Tang San Pao felt humiliated. Eventually, he could no longer stand the conversations in the surroundings and returned to sit with Su Li and Ling Jue Yun. Although the seat between Su Li and Ling Jue Yun was empty now that Duan Ling Tian had left, Tang San Pao was perceptive enough to leave the seat empty.

After a while, Tang San Pao could no longer hold back and asked, “Ling Jue Yun, how long have you known that freak, Duan Ling Tian? Has he always been so heaven-defying?”

Tang San Pao knew almost nothing about Duan Ling Tian, after all. He only knew that Duan Ling Tian had obtained Feng Qing Yang’s legacy in the mundane realm, and as a result, became Feng Qing Yang’s only true disciple a century ago. 

“A couple of centuries ago, we were evenly matched,” Ling Jue Yun said expressionlessly. However, if one listened carefully, a hint of dejection could be heard in his voice.

Tang San Pao said, shocked, “You were evenly matched a few centuries ago, and yet, you’re so far behind him now? You… No matter what, you’re from a prominent clan in a Realm of Gods. How can someone in the Devata Realm surpass your cultivation speed? Moreover, that someone is an ascender from a mundane realm!”

“Although you’re not from a Realm of Gods, I can say the same about you…” Ling Jue Yun said indifferently.

Upon hearing these words, Tang San Pao’s face flushed red, and he no longer continued asking questions.

At this time, Xu Kong Hai’s voice rang in the air again, pulling everyone back to their senses.

“Alright. The top three participants for this year’s Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses have been decided. However, the participants below them still have the chance to fight for a higher rank. The Battle of the Geniuses will now resume…”

Feng Qing Yang only brought Duan Ling Tian with him when he left. He did not bring Meng Luo, the Heavenly Savage Celestial Emperor.

“Master, where’s the Asura Hell?” Duan Ling Tian asked curiously when he discovered they were not going to the Transportation Formation in the Heavenly Palace of the Primeval Heaven. 

“It’s in an independent realm…” Feng Qing Yang replied.

“An independent realm? How do we get there?” Duan Ling Tian continued to ask.

“We’ll have to keep heading east. A transportation point will appear before we hit the realm’s barrier. At that time, we’ll be sent to the Asura Hell,” Feng Qing Yang replied, “It’s roughly the same when we return as well. You’ll be transported back near a Devata Realm’s barrier in the east. However, you won’t know which Devata Realm you’ll be transported to when you return…”

Duan Ling Tian nodded. Then, as though he had just recalled something, he asked, “Master, if that’s the case, you could’ve left the Asura Hell at that time, right? After all, you’d be transported to a different Devata Realm; your pursuer wouldn’t be able to capture you…”

“You’re right,” Feng Qing Yang said with a sigh, “However, at that time, he was hot on my trails so I didn’t have a chance to leave when I entered the Asura Hell. I could only run into the depths of the Asura Hell at that time. In hindsight, I really have to thank him. If he didn’t chase me doggedly at that time, I would’ve missed out on one of the biggest fortuitous encounters of my life…”

Feng Qing Yang chuckled before he recounted the past to Duan Ling Tian. In the end, he concluded that what had happened to him was indeed a blessing in disguise.
