Chapter 3086: Gather at Wind Defense City


Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


The Wind Defense City was one of the cities in the territories of the Yan Mountain Mansion. Its status in the Yan Mountain Mansion was comparable to the status of Ax Mountain City in the Profound Nether Mansion. The Wind Defense City also had its own Transporting Formations that were connected to the other 80 Devata Realms. It was inscribed by the Formation masters of the city and cost 10,000 prominent Celestial Crystals to use.


After Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun entered the city, they found it bustling. Many people were entering and leaving the city.


“We have less than two months until our meeting time. Let’s find an inn to settle down in. The Wind Defense City is under the Yan Mountain Mansion. It should have an inn that’s similar to the Above Cloud Pavilion in Ax Mountain City,” Ling Jue Yun suggested to Duan Ling Tian.


Duan Ling Tian nodded in agreement.


Soon enough, the duo found an inn that belonged to the Yan Mountain Mansion. Although the layout of their courtyards was unlike the Above Cloud Pavilion in Ax Mountain City, their treatment of the guests according to the grades of courtyards was similar. The treatment of the occupants of the highest grade courtyards was the same as the Sky Courtyards in the Above Cloud Pavilion. This inn that belonged to the Yan Mountain Mansion was called the Unison Pavilion. Unlike the Sky Courtyards in the Above Cloud Pavilion, each of the highest grade courtyards could accommodate three people.


After settling down, Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun went to their respective rooms and continued to comprehend their profundities while they waited for the time to meet the reincarnated Celestial Emperor to come.



A few days later.


A female guest was ushered into the courtyard next to Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun’s courtyard. If Duan Ling Tian were in the front yard now, he would have recognized the female guest immediately. She was none other than Murong Xiao Xiao, the person who ranked third after Ling Jue Yun and Duan Ling Tian in the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm in the Profound Nether Mansion.


Murong Xiao Xiao was from a grade-seven clan in one of the Profound Nether Mansion’s territories. She was also the Murong Clan’s most gifted disciple. Unlike Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun who had used the Transporting Formation in Ax Mountain City, she had traveled to the Jade Emperor Heaven using a Transporting Formation in another city under the Profound Nether Mansion.


Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun were, naturally, unaware that an acquaintance from the Profound Nether Mansion was also lodging at the Unison Pavilion.


Similarly, Murong Xiao Xiao was also unaware that two acquaintances from the Profound Nether Mansion had arrived at the Unison Pavilion a few days earlier and were staying next to her courtyard.


The Unison Pavilion was the best inn in Wind Defense City. Those with influential, powerful, or wealthy backgrounds would usually choose to stay in the inn.


Before Duan Ling Tian, Ling Jue Yun, and Murong Xiao Xiao arrived at the Unison Pavilion, a few peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the Spirit Overarching Heaven and other Devata Realms had also decided to stay in the Unison Inn. Similar to Duan Ling, Ling Jue Yun, and Murong Xiao Xiao, they were also here for the secret realm left behind by a Celestial Emperor.



At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was fully immersed in comprehending the Explosion Profundity of the law of fire in his room. With the help of the Chaos Divine Flame, his progress was tremendously fast. He was close to completely comprehending and mastering it.


Over the period of half a month, Duan Ling Tian had the niggling feeling that he was only a hair’s breadth away from mastering the Explosion Profundity, but it continued to elude him.


In the end, Duan Ling Tian who was eager to find out what was wrong could not help but ask the Chaos Divine Flame, “Senior Chaos Divine Flame, what’s happening?”


The Chaos Divine Flame replied, “After comprehending the Pillaging Profundity and the Burning Profundity, you’ve gained a deep understanding and some preconceived concepts of the law fire that contradict with the Explosion Profundity… Basically, what’s happening is that you’ve reached a bottleneck in your comprehension of the Explosion Profundity.”


Duan Ling Tian finally discovered the reason for his lack of progress after listening to the Chaos Divine Flame’s words. As it turned out, it was due to the Pillaging Profundity and the Burning Profundity that he had comprehended.


“This is only the fourth profundity, and I’ve already met with a bottleneck… There are five more profundities from the law of fire to comprehend… It’s definitely going to get more and more difficult from here on out, right?” Duan Ling Tian asked with a sigh.


“Of course. The first few profundities of any laws are easy to comprehend… However, it gets progressively difficult when you begin to comprehend five or more profundities! To comprehend all nine profundities of a law is tougher than ascending to heaven… It’s impossible for a person with ordinary comprehension skills to comprehend all nine profundities even if he has all the time in the world and is in the best environment,” the Chaos Divine Flame said.


With this, Duan Ling Tian finally realized comprehending profundities would only get more and more difficult as he progressed.


The Chaos Divine Flame suggested, “Why don’t you try comprehending another profundity from the law of fire? Most people would switch to comprehending another profundity when they encounter a bottleneck. It could give you a new insight and help you break through the bottleneck later…” the Chaos Divine Flame suggested.


“That’s possible as well?” Duan Ling Tian was surprised to learn this. He immediately took to the Chaos Divine Flame’s suggestion.


Although Duan Ling Tian already had an answer in mind, he still asked the Chaos Divine Flame, “Senior, there’s one King Grade Celestial Method that contains the Blazing Sun Profundity and a King Grade Divine Ability that contains the Fire Traveling Profundity… The Fire Traveling Profundity seems useless… Should I comprehend the Blazing Sun Profundity first?”


The Fire Traveling Profundity was rather useless since it could only be used in an environment with fire even if one had comprehended it to the initial stage. Only when it was comprehended to the mastery stage, it could be used along with the flames created from the Fire Elemental Profundity.


“Yes, comprehend the Blazing Sun Profundity first,” the Chaos Divine Flame replied.


“No, wait!” Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes suddenly as though he had just recalled something. “Senior Chaos Divine Flame, the law of fire’s Fire Traveling Profundity is somewhat similar to the law of wind’s Wind Style Profundity and the law of earth’s Ground Escape Technique, right? There’s a limitation on the Fire Traveling Profundity and the Ground Escape Technique, this means the Wind Style Profundity should have similar limitations as well, right? However, how did I gain the speed from the Wind Style Profundity at the initial stage when I used the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman?” He had just recalled the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman that Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, had given him.


It was thanks to that Wind Shadow Escape Talisman contained the Celestial Origin Energy of a Celestial Lord and the Gale Profundity and the Wind Style Profundity at the initial stage that Duan Ling Tian managed to escape from the Nine Palaces Celestial King a.s.sa.s.sin from the Blood Skull Gang. When he had used the Celestial Talisman, he could keenly feel the speed of the Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted by the Wind Style Profundity and the Gale Profundity. The speed from the Wind Style Profundity was not weaker than the Gale Profundity’s speed. However, the Wind Style Profundity in the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman was only at the initial stage. Under such circ.u.mstances, since it was not at the mastery stage, should it not be limited like the Fire Traveling Profundity and the Ground Escape Technique?


“Before asking this question, did you think about the environment you were in when you used the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman? Was there no wind around you when you used it?” the Chaos Divine Flame replied as though Duan Ling Tian should have known the answer to the question.


“Windless?” It took a moment before realization dawned on Duan Ling Tian. “That’s right! Although the Wind Style Profundity has limitations as well, due to the environment, the limitation was removed. Only if we were in a windless place then the Wind Style Profundity would be useless unless it has been comprehended to the mastery stage.”


This meant the Wind Traveling Profundity was more useful than the law of Fire’s Fire Traveling Profundity before the mastery stage. After all, as long as one was not in an enclosed or sealed s.p.a.ce with no breeze, wind existed almost everywhere.


‘Those who comprehend the law of wind are really lucky. The Fire Traveling Profundity is useless unless one comprehends it to the mastery stage. However, even the rudimentary stage of the Wind Style Profundity could still be used to boost their speed since wind is everywhere even if you can’t feel it,’ Duan Ling Tian lamented inwardly. He could not help but feel envious of those who comprehended the law of wind.


After a while, he took a deep breath and calmed down before he continued to focus on comprehending the law of fire’s Blazing Sun Profundity with the help from the Chaos Divine Flame.


He had lost track of time as he comprehended the Blazing Sun Profundity until Ling Jue Yun’s voice calling out to him from outside snapped him back to his senses.
