Chapter 2263 A Terrifyingly Fast Cultivation Speed


“Annihilate!” Duan Ling Tian cried out. His voice was thunderous, shooking the ground. As soon as he spoke, the Thousand Inscriptions Saint Sword flew out at the speed of light across the night sky. It collided with the fifth lightning bolt. The lightning bolt’s power had been depleted by the Thousand Inscriptions Saint Sword’s clones. Before the lightning bolt could recharge its power, Duan Ling Tian had quickly used the Thousand Inscriptions Saint Sword to defend against it.


Suddenly…


Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!


The sound of the collision of the Thousand Inscriptions Saint Sword and the fifth lightning bolt from the Heavenly Tribulation rang in the air.


“Golden Crow’s Wings!” Duan Ling Tian did not stay idle when the two forces collided. He quickly flew toward the lighting bolt.


Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+


A sword cry rang in the air when Duan Ling Tian moved to stop the clouds from recharging the energy of the fifth lightning bolt from the Heavenly Tribulation! The battle between Duan Ling Tian and the lightning bolt escalated as he cast his strongest attack with the Thousand Inscriptions Saint Sword.


Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!


A cacophonous grating sound rang in the air before it was followed by an earth-shattering explosion, drowning out the deafening claps of thunder that was rumbling in the sky. A mushroom cloud appeared in the sky before a terrifying shockwave swept out in all directions.


Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+


At the same time, a flurry of hurricanes appeared and wreaked havoc in the place. The trees and flowers were uprooted in the valley. The entire valley looked chaotic as though the land had just been plundered.


The wind blew strongly for a few moments before it gradually died down. When Duan Ling Tian saw this, he sighed in relief. “Finally.” He had successfully deflected the fifth lightning bolt from the Heavenly Tribulation.


Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!


However, as soon as Duan Ling Tian heaved a sigh of relief, thunder began to rumble again in the sky. It seemed to remind him that this was not the end of the Heavenly Tribulation and the sixth lightning bolt was about to strike.


Duan Ling Tian was startled and regained his senses. His relieved expression from a moment ago was now replaced by an expression of deep concentration as though he was facing his mortal enemy.


The fifth lightning bolt from the Heavenly Tribulation is already so frighteningly powerful… There’s no doubt the sixth lightning bolt would be even stronger. How am I going to defend against it?” Anxiety rose in Duan Ling Tian’s heart as he looked at the flashes of lightning in the clouds. As despair ate at his heart, he suddenly noticed something. He had been observing the clouds and the flas.h.i.+ng lightning when his eyes suddenly widened and a shocked expression appeared on his face. It seemed as though the clouds were beginning to disperse when Duan Ling Tian was fretting about what to do next and losing hope. Moreover, the sound from the thunder gradually became softer and softer as well.


“Th…this…” For a moment, Duan Ling Tian was stupefied by the scene unfolding before him. It was too sudden! The Heavenly Tribulation he had faced today only had five thunderbolts? It took him a while to regain his senses. He sighed in relief again even though a hint of anxiety could be seen on his face. He thought to himself, ‘It’s just a false alarm… I really didn’t expect the Heavenly Tribulation to only have five lightning bolts. Fortunately, there’s no sixth lightning bolt. Otherwise, I’d definitely be killed by the sixth lightning bolt.’


At this moment, Duan Ling Tian felt immensely lucky. If there were six lightning bolts from the Heavenly Tribulation, he would have died. There were only five lightning bolts, but he had barely made it through alive.


If this Heavenly Tribulation is caused by my Innate Spiritual Root turning black, doesn’t this mean now that my Innate Spiritual Root has turned black, the danger I would face is much more terrifying?’ When Duan Ling Tian thought about this, his mood sank.


“An ordinary person that hasn’t reached the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage wouldn’t have survived that Heavenly Tribulation without being grievously injured! Initially, I planned to improve Ke’er’s Innate Spiritual Root to a black one after I’ve successfully turned my Innate Spiritual Root black. Looks like I’ll have to put a hold to that plan for now. Otherwise, it might endanger Ke’er.” Duan Ling Tian realized even if he wanted to help Ke’er improve her Innate Spiritual Root, he had to wait until she was strong enough to pa.s.s the Heavenly Tribulation.


Soon after, Duan Ling Tian’s thoughts drifted to his daughter. ‘Si Ling has a black Innate Spiritual Root as well, but she didn’t attract any Heavenly Tribulation when she cultivated. It’s very likely that it’s because she’s bom with a black Innate Spiritual Root!’


“If I absorb the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy with my black Innate Spiritual Root now, I don’t think I’ll attract the Heavenly Tribulation again, right?” Duan Ling Tian smiled at his own silliness before he tried to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy.


Suddenly, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy began to rapidly surge into Duan Ling Tian’s body.


When Duan Ling Tian cast his skill, the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, he pulled the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy into his body as it made a cycle in his body before transforming into Sun Saint Origin.


“That’s fast!” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes flew open. A look of excitement and exhilaration could be seen in them.


“My current cultivation speed is ten times faster than before! It’s even faster than when I had help from the slower time flow in the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite PaG.o.da in the Upper Province of Dao Martial Saint Land!”


Duan Ling Tian was amazed by the speed of his cultivation. Now that he possessed the black Innate Spiritual Root, his cultivation speed in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land was even faster than when he was cultivating in the Upper Province with the help of the Seven Treasures Exquisite PaG.o.da…


What could this mean? It could only mean that his current cultivation speed was at a higher level than before!


“When I was in the Upper Province, it took me three years in the outside world to break through to the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage when I was in the pseudo realm left behind by three Eminent Devils… I even had the help of the Seven Treasures Exquisite PaG.o.da then. With my innate talent now, even if I’m in the Lower Province, I’m not afraid to say it would take me about two years to raise my cultivation base!”


One had to know the cultivation environment in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land was far inferior to the cultivation environment in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. Currently, the only thing Duan Ling Tian had to help him with his cultivation was his black Innate Spiritual Root, but he was confident he would only need two years in the Lower Province to make the progress he made when he was on the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite PaG.o.da in the Upper Province that took him thirty years inside the paG.o.da and three years in the outside world.


In other words, although Duan Ling Tian was cultivating in the Lower Province, his speed might be even faster when he was in the Upper Province and had the Seven Treasures Exquisite PaG.o.da!


No wonder it attracted the Heavenly Tribulation… The black Innate Spiritual Root really defies the nature of cultivation!’ Duan Ling Tian let out a sigh when he thought about this.


“With my current innate talent, if I cultivate in the Human-Devil Saint City, it wouldn’t be a problem for me to break through to the Eight Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in a year. Moreover, it might not even be a problem for me to break through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage within three years!” Duan Ling Tian was very confident now that he had a black Innate Spiritual Root, the highest grade of Innate Spiritual Roots.


If I’m still in the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect in the Upper Province, with its superior cultivation environment, I’m certain I’ll be able to break through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage within a year!’ When Duan Ling Tian thought about this, his heart was in turmoil.


He had just broken through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, but now he was most likely to break through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in just three years?


“With Si Ling’s innate talent, her cultivation speed is going to be faster than others by a thousand times… In the future, her cultivation speed wouldn’t be hindered even if she encounters bottlenecks in her cultivation. Her speed will be peerless compared to other cultivators.” Duan Ling Tian began to eagerly antic.i.p.ate his daughter’s cultivation progress since his daughter was a genius among geniuses who possessed a black Innate Spiritual Root!


“It’s time for me to return… Once I return, I’ll head to the Wandering Saint Palace of the Three Palaces and Six Halls in the Human-Devil clan.”


Duan Ling Tian no longer wasted any time and left the cultivation place of the three Great Guardian Warriors and the territory of the Boar-Devil clan.


At present, he had no idea that his ‘human’ ident.i.ty had already been exposed to the three Patriarchs of the Boar-Devil Clan! It would not be long before the Boar-Devil clan or the other Devil Clans found out about the existence of a human who possessed the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet, in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land and had killed the Three Great Guardian Warriors of the Boar-Devil clan!
