Chapter 2112: Revenge

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chu Tan Sheng, a cultivator at the Fifth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage was the Black Kshetra Sect elder who had been beside Xie Zong. He was constantly using his Divine Consciousness to monitor Xie Zong for safety purposes even though he was not directly next to him. If there was a threat against Xie Zong, he would be instantly made aware of it so he could rescue him. However, since his Divine Consciousness was constantly focused on Xie Zong, he was less focused on Xie Zong’s surroundings. In other words, Chu Tan Sheng would only be alerted if Xie Zong was in danger. However, he would not know where he was or who was with him.

“Elder Chu, I have some matters to attend to. I’ll see you in a while.” Chu Tan Sheng was surprised when he received Xie Zong’s Voice Transmission. Then, he noticed Xie Zong had left the range of his Divine Consciousness when he regained his senses. He could not locate Xie Zong’s whereabouts even after he used his Divine Consciousness to search for him.

‘The Golden Lion King has really spoiled Xie Zong rotten! Doesn’t Xie Zong know that danger lurks everywhere in Sin City?’ Chu Tan Sheng’s expression turned grim when he discovered he could not locate Xie Zong. ‘I hope he stays safe… Otherwise, the Golden Lion King will kill me when I return to the Black Kshetra Sect.’

The Golden Lion King was the most violent among the Four Great Karmapas in Black Kshetra Sect. Most of the people who were killed by the Golden Lion King did not have an intact corpse when they died.

‘I should continue searching.’ Chu Tan Sheng had lost all motivation to buy resources once he imagined the wrath from the Golden Lion King that would befall him if Xie Zong was harmed. In the end, he decided to search for Xie Zong in Sin City. It was unfortunate for him that he began his search on the wrong side of the city.

Xie Zong had already left Sin City through the west gate when Chu Tan Sheng realized Xie Zong was not in the eastern part of Sin City.

Xie Zong had left Sin City following the tracks of the purple-clad young man.

Xie Zong had decided to follow the purple-clad young man when he heard the purple-clad young man exclaimed out loud, ‘Asura Saber!’ He thought it was likely the purple-clad young man had received information about the location of the Asura Saber. He felt even more certain he was right when he saw the purple-clad young man heading west.

Xie Zong’s target was the Asura Saber, one of the Super Saint Weapons on the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking.

The purple-clad young man that Xie Zong was tailing was none other than Duan Ling Tian!

‘Success!’ Duan Ling Tian almost could not contain his excitement when he saw Xie Zong had taken the bait that he had carefully laid out. He had planned to make Xie Zong voluntarily leave the side of the Black Kshetra Sect elder who was at the Fifth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. This was the only way to guarantee his own safety after he killed Xie Zong.

Duan Ling Tian needed something that would pique Xie Zong’s interest. Something he would not be willing to share with other people. At that time, the Asura Saber appeared in his mind. The Asura Saber was a famous Super Saint Weapon on the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking. Duan Ling Tian decided to use the Asura Saber to lure Xie Zong away. He knew rumors had it that the Asura Saber had appeared in the Western Region. Naturally, the Black Kshetra Sect would hear about it as well. That was why he decided to run west. He knew Xie Zong would come to the conclusion that he had information about the Asura Saber.

Right before leaving Sin City, Elder Huo informed Duan Ling Tian that Xie Zong had left the protective range of the Black Kshetra Sect elder’s Divine Consciousness.

Duan Ling Tian knew he could kill Xie Zong once they left Sin City, but he was in no hurry to act. The further he went, the safer he would be.

‘Hmmph! Xie Zong, you’re going to die today. You have no one to blame but yourself. Among the ten Super Saint Weapons in the Dao Martial Saint Land, you already own one, but you still want another one? Who do you think you are? Do you think you have G.o.d on your side?’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he continued making his way west.

Duan Ling Tian knew very well that Xie Zong had come after him alone because he wanted the Asura Saber all to himself. He had used Xie Zong’s greed against him and lured him into a trap. After all, based on what he could see, Xie Zong was an extremely greedy person.

Duan Ling Tian came to a halt after he was ten thousand miles away from Sin City. He did not waste any time before he began to mobilize his Sun Saint Energy without restraint.

“Elementary Devouring Tactic!” Duan Ling Tian instantly cast the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, and whirlpools began to appear around his body. Then, it began to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in his surroundings. His Sun Saint Energy was rising at an unbelievable speed.

Initially, Duan Ling Tian’s Sun Saint Energy was comparable to the Saint Origin of a cultivator at the First Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

Although Duan Ling Tian’s Sun Saint Energy could not compare to the Saint Origin of a cultivator at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, he was quite close to it. His Sun Saint Energy was currently stronger than the Saint Origins of most cultivators at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

‘Since breaking through to Early Quintessential Saint Stage, my Sun Saint Energy has improved by quite a bit… With my Divine Abilities and skills, an ordinary cultivator at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage is not a match for me even if I don’t use the Jasper Celestial Sword!’

Duan Ling Tian felt strength surging through his body after the Elementary Devouring Tactic raised his Sun Saint Energy. He could not wait to fight someone to try out his new strength.

‘If I use the Jasper Celestial Sword, I’ll be invincible among cultivators below the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. In fact, I’m certain I can kill an ordinary powerhouse at the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage if I use the Jasper Celestial Sword.’ Duan Ling Tian’s confidence grew as he thought about this.

“What a coincidence that I don’t want Xie Zong to die a quick death. I can take my time and test my Divine Abilities and skills on him to see the changes after I’ve broken through to the Early Quintessential Saint Stage! I will teach him the meaning of regret and despair!” Duan Ling Tian muttered through clenched teeth when he recalled how Xie Zong killed Elder Ku and the team of Black Armored Guards. He felt as though all his pent up anger would explode at any minute now.

‘Eh? Why did he stop moving so suddenly? What’s he doing? How did his power increase so dramatically in such a short time? Did he cast an a.s.sist-type Divine Ability?’ Xie Zong’s mind was filled with countless questions. When he saw Duan Ling Tian had stopped moving, he stopped moving as well.

Xie Zong discovered the changes in Duan Ling Tian when he used his Divine Consciousness to probe Duan Ling Tian again. He was shocked to find that the purple-clad young man whose cultivation base was supposed to be at the Early Quintessential Stage seemed to have an energy that was stronger than the Saint Origin of a powerhouse at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Although it was not as powerful as the Saint Origin of a powerhouse at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, it was still pretty close to it.

‘This young man seems really mysterious!’ Even after discovering the changes in Duan Ling Tian, Xie Zong was not worried nor did he feel threatened. This was because he was still stronger even without using any techniques compared to Duan Ling Tian who had used all his techniques. He was confident he could easily defeat the man before him if he used his Divine Abilities!

“Xie Zong!” A booming voice sounded when Xie Zong was deep in his thoughts. The voice sounded familiar to him even though he could not remember where he had heard it before.

After Xie Zong regained his senses, he saw the purple-clad young man whom he had been following had turned back and flew to stand opposite him.

“Y-you noticed me?” Xie Zong’s expression changed when he realized the purple-clad young man had discovered his presence. More importantly, it seemed like the purple-clad young man knew him. Otherwise, how would the purple-clad young man know his name?

“It’s my plan to lure you out here all along. How can I not know you’ve been following me?” Duan Ling Tian said disdainfully as he looked at Xie Zong coldly.

“Y-you lured me out?” If Xie Zong was still clueless about what was happening after listening to Duan Ling Tian’s words, he would have lived his life in vain. Duan Ling Tian had intentionally used the Asura Saber to lure him out!

Xie Zong instantly studied his surroundings intently. He thought the purple-clad man must not be alone since he did not think the purple-clad young man was a match for him.

“Don’t bother! There are only both of us here,” Duan Ling Tian said with a sneer. He could easily guess what Xie Zong was thinking based on Xie Zong’s actions.
