Chapter 1613: Lurking Peril

Before Duan Ling Tian came here, he had already made up his mind to kill the two Saint Stage powerhouses of Dark Nether Sect. Naturally, he had planned to kill two of them in one blow!

Initially, he had thought about luring one of them away. However, he found it unrealistic when he thought about it thoroughly.

Although he was currently quite powerful, he was still no match for two Saint Stage powerhouses if he did not use the Devilseal Tablet. If he did not use the tablet, he would be in great danger. However, if he had only used the tablet on one of them, it would alert the enemy. Therefore, he decided to only use the Devilseal Tablet when both of them were together.

Initially, everything went as he had planned. When Ye Feng and the old man, the Sect Leader and Supreme Elder of Dark Nether Sect, appeared, he could already see them being killed by the Devilseal Tablet. However, what happened next was completely out of his expectation.

It did not cross his mind the Devilseal Tablet would crush the Ye Feng and the Supreme Elder’s Territories so forcefully and mercilessly, presenting them with an opportunity to escape. He did not expect Ye Feng would be able to recognize the Devilseal Tablet at the critical moment and choose to flee. As a result, the ending was completely different from what Duan Ling Tian had imagined.

The Supreme Elder of Dark Nether Sect was dead, but the Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect, Ye Feng, managed to escape.

“Currently, even the Devilseal Tablet has lost track of Ye Feng. With my current strength, it’s impossible for me to chase after him!” Duan Ling Tian’s expression was very grave at this moment.

Under normal circumstances, he would not be bothered if Ye Feng escaped. However, Ye Feng was aware of him possessing the Devilseal Tablet. Since he recognized the Devilseal Tablet, he must also know the Devilseal Tablet was a Super Saint Weapon in the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking. If Ye Feng spread the news of him possessing the Devilseal Tablet, it would only bring disaster to him!

Just thinking about this made Duan Ling Tian shudder.

Let alone the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion, the Devilseal Tablet was a Super Saint Weapon that could drive everyone in the Dao Martial Saint Land crazy.

The Devilseal Tablet was undoubtedly the bane of a Devil Cultivator’s life.

Whoever possessed the Devilseal Tablet meant they did not have to fear Devil Cultivators. Although it only applied to Devil Cultivators that was a stage higher than them, it was still considered remarkable.

Just this alone was more than enough for many Martial and Dao Cultivators to covet the Devilseal Tablet.

Duan Ling Tian could already imagine what would happen if these people found out the Devilseal Tablet was in his possession. Just thinking about it was enough to make him shudder.

A thousand emotions flickered in Duan Ling Tian’s eyes as he gasped. After a long while, he finally calmed himself down. ‘Now that things have escalated to this point, there’s no point in me worrying about it. What’s more important now is to rescue Uncle Feng, Teacher, and the others and bring them back to the Situ Clan.’ When Duan Ling Tian thought of this, he put the matter regarding Ye Feng to the back of his mind.

Since one of the Saint Stage powerhouses was dead, and the other had fled, there was no need for Duan Ling Tian to be cautious any more. He openly marched into the seventh-rate Saint Stone reserve. He no longer bothered to hide his presence as he did earlier.

“Who are you?” Since Duan Ling Tian no longer hid his presence, naturally, he attracted the attention of many Dark Nether Sect’s disciples who were on patrol. These Dark Nether Sect’s disciples shouted as they surrounded Duan Ling Tian closely as though they were wrapping a dumpling.

Duan Ling Tian did not create a huge commotion when he killed the Supreme Elder of Nether Sect earlier so it did not attract anyone’s attention. These Dark Nether Sect’s disciples definitely would not be so brave if they had witnessed the scene of the Supreme Elder of Dark Nether Sect being killed by the Devilseal Tablet.

What a joke!

Someone who could kill the Dark Nether Sect’s Supreme Elder was definitely not someone they could fight.

Faced with less than twenty of the Dark Nether Sect’s disciples who had surrounded him, Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow and said indifferently, “Scram!”

Originally, Duan Ling Tian did not plan to harm them if they had obediently left. However, when the Dark Nether Sect’s disciples heard his words, they became furious. “Boy, you’re seeking death!”

“Not to mention you trespass into our sect, you’re telling us to scram? I really wonder where you get your courage from!”

“What’s the point of talking to him? Let’s kill him!”

The group of Dark Nether Sect’s disciples broke into an uproar. All of them were eager to attack Duan Ling Tian. Magnificent True Energies flashed everywhere before they converged. It was as though they had transformed into a huge net that was falling on Duan Ling Tian.

“Hurmph!” Duan Ling Tian snorted before the aura in within a 100-meter radius suddenly changed drastically.

The piercing aura caused colors to drain from the Dark Nether Sect’s disciples’ faces immediately. At this instant, 10,000 sword rays appeared in the sky within a 100-meter radius.

After Duan Ling Tian’s 10,000 Sword Territory that was formed by his True Energy appeared and crushed the group of Dark Nether Sect’s disciples’ attack, horror dawned on them as they shrieked in terror, “Territory! He’s a Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouses!”

This was destined to be the last emotion they felt in their lives.

As the 10,000 sword rays flew out in unison, the Dark Nether Sect’s disciples’ bodies were pierced until it looked like a hornet’s nest before they fell down from the sky one by one.

The people who were so furious earlier had become souls and wandering ghosts in just a blink of an eye.

Duan Ling Tian had an aloof expression on his face as he looked at the bodies on the ground. He voice was calm as he muttered to himself, “I gave all of you a chance…”

Just like this, Duan Ling Tian continued on his journey to the seventh-rate Saint Stone reserve in the Dark Nether Sect.

During his journey there, he killed another two Imminent Saint Stage Devil Cultivators. One of them was a Vice Sect Leader of the sect. The other was a grand elder.

Duan Ling Tian’s appearance shocked all the slaves in Dark Nether Sect.

Somebody had broken into the Dark Nether Sect’s estate and killed the Vice Sect Leader and grand elder of the sect. They did not even dare to dream of something like this before.

However, all these things had happened right before their eyes.

“Duan Ling Tian!” Soon after, the slaves saw a young slave rose up into the air. His expression was one of delight and surprise as he stared at the purple-clad young man who seemed like an invincible god.

“He knows this powerhouse?”

“Isn’t he just a slave like us? How’s it possible for him to know a powerhouse like that?!”

“That’s right! How can someone who knows a powerhouse like that be enslaved here?”

The slaves discussed among each other.

“Nangong Yi, look at you! It seems like you didn’t suffer that much!” When Duan Ling Tian saw the familiar young man standing before him, he chuckled.

This young man was one of the Nangong Twins. He was the younger brother, Nangong Yi. He became familiar with the twins back when he was on Cloud Continent.

Soon after, Duan Ling Tian saw Feng Wu Dao, Sima, and the others as well. After he determined all of them were unharmed, he let out a sigh of relief.

“Uncle Feng! Teacher!” Duan Ling Tian descended from the sky and appeared in front of Feng Wu Dao and the others. After he greeted Feng Wu Dao and Sima, these two seniors, he greeted Chen Shao Shuai before nodding his head at Xiong Quan and Gold Thug. “I’m sorry for all the hardship all of you had to endure during this period of time.”

“There’s no need for you to feel sorry.” Xiong Quan and Gold Thug shook their heads.

Xiong Quan chuckled loudly. “I knew you’re going to come to our rescue, Young Master.”

Gold Thug looked at Duan Ling Tian as he asked curiously, “Master, is the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan, Master Duan, whose name has spread in the entire Windfall Nation you?”

When Gold Thug spoke, Feng Wu Dao and the others shifted their attention back to Duan Ling Tian. They were curious about this as well.

“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded in response to Gold Thug’s question as he flashed a small smile. “I’m indeed the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan. I’ll be bringing all of you to stay at the Situ Clan temporarily after we leave this place.”

The Interim Advisor of Situ Clan!

Master Duan!

When Feng Wu Dao and the others heard Duan Ling Tian’s answer, they were still shocked even though they had already suspected this.

They knew very well how the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan became famous.

How could they not be shocked now that they found out that Duan Ling Tian was Master Duan?

“I can’t believe it’s actually you.” Chen Shao Shuai was taken aback.

“Then, did you come with the powerhouses from Situ Clan?” Nangong Yi asked. His eyes lit up when he saw the bodies of the Dark Nether Sect’s disciples that had turned into bloody pulps on the ground.

“No, I came alone.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head.

Alone?

Duan Ling Tian’s words shocked Feng Wu Dao and the others again.

He had broken into the Dark Nether Sect alone, and he had killed so many disciples. Moreover, he had also killed the Vice Sect Leader and the grand elder of the sect.

They did not find it strange for Duan Ling Tian to be so strong, he was the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan and a powerhouse ranked on the Heaven Ranking after all. It was not difficult for him to kill two Imminent Saint Stage powerhouses who had yet to enter the Saint Stage. However, he would undoubtedly alert the two Saint Stage powerhouses with the way he had tyrannically slaughtered everyone. Feng Wu Dao and the others found it strange when they remembered the two Saint Stage powerhouses.

Xiong Quan was the first one to regain his senses. His expression was grave as he said to Duan Ling Tian, “Young Master, leave now… If the Sect Leader and Supreme Elder of Dark Nether Sect discover what happened here, you’ll be in danger!”

Feng Wu Dao nodded in a sign of assent and urged him, “That’s right. We’ll just seize the chance and flee during the chaos. If we manage to escape, we’ll find you in the capital.”

Although Sima and the others remained silent, the hint of desperation in their eyes as they looked at Duan Ling Tian revealed they all had the same thought. They all wanted him to leave as soon as possible before the two Saint Stage powerhouses arrived. At that time, he would not be able to escape even if he wanted to.

“Relax! They won’t come.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head with a smile before motioning to Feng Wu Dao and the others to leave. “Let’s leave this place and reunite with Senior Brother first. He’s waiting for us outside of the Dark Nether Sect’s estate.”
