As soon as the middle aged elder said this, it was like a stone tossed at the lake that caused a thousand ripples.
"I feel this way as well."
"I agree with this."
…
Most of the remaining elders nodded in agreement.
As far as they were concerned, once he consumed the Spirit Void Fruit, it was practically assured that the Second Young Master, Zhang Shou Yuan’s, cultivation would break through to the seventh level of the Void Initiation Stage, and a seventh level Void Initiation Stage martial artist had a great chance in becoming eminent in the Dynasty Martial Competition and obtaining the qualification to participate in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties.
On the other hand, the situation of the Eldest Young Master, Zhang Shou Yong, was slightly difficult.
The Void Interpretation Stage was already not a problem that relied purely on the aspect of Origin Energy, and the comprehension of Concept was more important.
If one’s Concept wasn’t comprehended to the required level, then even if one’s Origin Energy is any stronger, one would be unable to break through to the Void Interpretation Stage.
Besides one’s Origin Energy having to satisfy the conditions, it was more important to first comprehend Void Interpretation Concept or Intermediate Concept to break through to the Void Interpretation Stage.
This was something that was usually the most difficult.
Under such a comparison and coupled with the Second Young Master, Zhang Shou Yuan, being the future Patriarch of the Zhang Clan, the group of elders had a decision in their hearts.
They’d sided towards the Second Young Master, Zhang Shou Yuan.
Zhang Shou Yuan revealed a smile on his face, yet he acted modest. "Elders, you’re all too kind."
"Hmph!" Right at this moment, a cold snort sounded out abruptly, and it disturbed the clamorous atmosphere at the scene.
Instantly, the atmosphere became silent, perfectly silent.
The gazes of everyone descended onto the person that snorted coldly…
The person that emitted the cold snort was none other than Zhang Shou Yong, who was by Duan Ling Tian’s side.
For a time, many Zhang Clan elders frowned and were slightly displeased.
"The Eldest Young Master has left the clan for a period of time, yet he’s more and more ignorant of his manners…" Some elders that were aged past a hundred spoke indifferently, and their tone contained an intention to blame.
On the other side, when the Patriarch’s wife and Zhang Shou Yuan saw this scene, the smile on their faces became even more brilliant, and both of them felt that Zhang Shou Yong was courting death.
With this scene Zhang Shou Yong caused, it would be strange if any elder were to vote for him!
"Yong." When he saw Zhang Shou Yong enrage many elders, the Patriarch frowned and was slightly puzzled.
According to his understanding of this eldest son of his, Zhang Shou Yong wasn’t a rash person.
"Elders." Zhang Shou Yong glanced indifferently at the group of Zhang Clan Elders, and he spoke unhurriedly. "Looks like all of you aren’t confident in my ability to break through to the Void Interpretation Stage before the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties after I consume the Spirit Void Fruit."
"Or perhaps, it’s time that I ought to give all of you some confidence!" As Zhang Shou Yong finished speaking, he twisted the topic.
Practically the instant he finished speaking.
Whoosh!
Strands of material earthen yellow energy that were clearly visible coiled around the surroundings of Zhang Shou Yong’s body, and it emitted traces of vast aura.
At the same time, the energy of the heaven and earth roiled above him before finally converging into nine ancient horned dragon silhouettes…
The strength of nine ancient horned dragons!
"Ninth… Ninth level Elementary Earth Concept!" Instantly, a white browed elder was the first to react, and he couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.
Subsequently, more and more people reacted to what this meant, and amongst them included Duan Ling Tian.
Ninth level Elementary Earth Force? Duan Ling Tian stared fixedly at Zhang Shou Yong, and he couldn’t help but gasp.
Now he finally understood Zhang Shou Yong’s intentions.
So it turned out that Zhang Shou Yong had always been waiting for this moment to arrive.
He wanted to use his strength to prove himself!
If he were to consume the Spirit Void Fruit, he would surely be able to smoothly break through to the Void Interpretation Stage before the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties!
Big Brother Zhang’s ninth level Elementary Earth Force seems to have been comprehended for some time… It obviously possesses the momentum of approaching Intermediate Earth Concept. Duan Ling Tian, who’d inherited the Rebirth Martial Emperor’s memories, had an outstanding discerning gaze, and he’d noticed with a single glance that Zhang Shou Yong’s ninth level Elementary Concept wasn’t simple.
"Good… Good!" The Patriarch was stunned for a moment before shouting out explosively, and his face was covered in excitement.
"My Zhang Clan’s good fortune! My Zhang Clan’s good fortune!"
"With the Eldest Young Master present, why would our Zhang Clan worry about being unable to rise in the world?"
…
In next to no time, many Zhang Clan elders turned to flatter Zhang Shou Yong.
Some of these Zhang Clan elders had even sided towards Zhang Shou Yuan earlier, yet at this moment, they seemed like grass atop a wall that swayed along with the wind.
They never imagined earlier that not only had Zhang Shou Yong’s cultivation stepped into the eighth level of the Void Initiation Stage, he’d actually comprehended ninth level Elementary Earth Concept.
"Looks like out Zhang Clan will be able to seek the limelight on the stage that is the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties this time!" An elder with white hairs and brows couldn’t refrain from speaking with pleasant surprise.
The Patriarch’s wife and Zhang Shou Yuan stood stunned on the spot nearby.
The smile on their faces had completely frozen since long ago, and there seemed to be slight disbelief and shock mixed within the depths of their eyes.
Never had they imagined that not only was Zhang Shou Yong’s natural talent high, even his comprehension ability was so heaven defying…
He’d actually comprehended ninth level Elementary Earth Concept!
"Elders, you can vote now… Decide who ought to consume this Spirit Void Fruit." The voice of the Patriarch sounded out in a timely manner.
At this moment, the outcome was already without the slightest suspense.
After Zhang Shou Yong, the Zhang Clan’s Eldest Young Master revealed his ninth level Elementary Earth Concept, he’d obtained the support of all the Zhang Clan elders.
Everyone hoped that he consumed the Spirit Void Fruit and broke through to the Void Interpretation Stage before the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties and strive to obtain extremely great honor for the Zhang Clan at the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties.
"Big Brother Zhang, congratulations." When he saw Zhang Shou Yong obtain the Spirit Void Fruit, Duan Ling Tian congratulated via voice transmission.
"Brother Ling Tian, I’m truly sorry for making you worry." Zhang Shou Yong apologized.
"There’s no harm done, it’s fine as long as you obtain the Spirit Void Fruit." Duan Ling Tian shook his head and then glanced at the night sky that had completely dimmed and said, "It’s already getting late, I ought to leave as well… We’ll meet again when the Dynasty Martial Competition begins."
Zhang Shou Yong send Duan Ling Tian out as he said with a smile, "Perhaps we don’t have to wait until the Dynasty Martial Competition… Maybe I’ll be able to find the Ageless Root you need in another few days, or perhaps I’ll have some spirit fruits used by Void Initiation Stage martial artists."
"That couldn’t be any better." At the Zhang Clan Estate’s entrance, Duan Ling Tian revealed a brilliant smile before bidding his farewells once more and leaving.
When he saw Duan Ling Tian’s figure vanish before his eyes, Zhang Shou Yong turned around and returned to the estate.
At another side of the Zhang Clan Estate.
"You three find a good time and make it clean… I want him to vanish from the world, and you must not leave behind any traces!" The middle aged woman spoke with a low voice to the three middle aged man in black clothes before her.
"Yes, Madam." The three black clothed middle aged men nodded respectfully, and their eyes flickered with frightful cold lights.
"Go!" Along with the middle aged woman waving her hand, the figures of the three black clothed middle aged men flashed out to fade into the night sky, and they were like three specters in the night sky.
"Mother." Before long, a young man appeared by the woman’s side, and his eyes flickered with cold lights. "Are the three of them able to do it? Duan Ling Tian is extremely strange… After I was affected by his ‘Demonic Technique’ the other day, I didn’t feel anything being off from the beginning until the end."
"Their strengths are even above my own… Killing Duan Ling Tian ought to not be difficult." The middle aged woman was very confident of the three black clothed middle aged men she sent out.
The young man heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, yet the cold lights in his eyes didn’t reduce. "If Duan Ling Tian dies, then my anger would be vented… But how regretful of that Spirit Void Fruit, Zhang Shou Yong was allowed to obtain it."
"With Zhang Shou Yong’s natural talent and comprehension ability, it ought to not be difficult for him to break through to the Void Interpretation Stage before the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties after he consumed the Spirit Void Fruit… Fortunately, he has no intention of taking the position of Patriarch, otherwise, he would be a strong adversary of yours." The woman heaved a sigh of relief as well.
At the other side, after Duan Ling Tian arrived nearby the estate that the Darkstone Empire had bought in the Darkhan Dynasty, he noticed three people watching him from the shadows.
But when he walked into the Darkstone Estate, the three people didn’t follow after him.
"Who would they be?" After Duan Ling Tian returned to the Darkstone Estate and his own courtyard, he couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.
"Logically speaking, after I arrived at the Darkhan Dynasty’s Capital, I haven’t offended anyone… If I were to really talk about someone who has enmity with me, then it would only be that Zhang Clan’s Second Young Master, Zhang Shou Yuan, and the Patriarch’s wife." In next to no time, Duan Ling Tian guessed it was Zhang Shou Yuan and the Patriarch’s wife, and he become more and more sure of it.
"I’ll disregard them… At any rate, those three fellows ought to not be so daring as to trespass into the Darkstone Estate." Subsequently, Duan Ling Tian didn’t continue thinking before sitting cross-legged on the bed, and then he closed his eyes and continued cultivating.
Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, Earth Dragon Form!
A Concept Fragment and a mid grade Origin Stone appeared out of thin air in Duan Ling Tian’s hand…
The Concept Fragment was precisely the fifth level Wind Concept Fragment he’d obtained at the Sword Monarch’s Treasure that day, and it was able to assist him in comprehending Wind Concept until he comprehended fifth level Advanced Wind Concept.
During this period of time, his comprehension of Wind Concept would advance by leaps and bounds because of this Concept Fragment.
Time swiftly flowed by.
In the blink of an eyes, another three months had passed, and only a month remained until the Dynasty Martial Competition now.
"I’ve finally broken through!" When Duan Ling Tian woke up once more, his face was filled with excited joy.
There seemed to be strands of Origin Energy leaping about around him, and in the end, they completely fused into his body…
During this period of time, eight ancient horned dragon silhouettes gradually dispersed above him.
Sixth level of the Void Initiation Stage!
Duan Ling Tian had finally broken through.
"I’ll go out and take a walk." Cultivating for an entire three months had almost suffocated Duan Ling Tian, and after three months of time, Duan Ling Tian had left the Darkstone Estate once again.
"They’re still here?" Duan Ling Tian had only just left the Darkstone Estate when he noticed the three people that were concealed in the shadows.
