Chapter 2943: The Origin Gathering Hall

After Duan Ling Tian obtained a place to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm of the Supporting Fall Nation, the battle during the second day of the Southern Heaven Combat grew more and more fierce.

Huang Jia Chao, the fifth son of Huang Yuan Fei, the City Governor of Passage City, also successfully secured a place to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Although his strength was weaker than his brother, Huang Jia Long, he was still much stronger than the average Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials.

Another noteworthy event on the second day of the Southern Heaven Combat was, apart from Duan Ling Tian and Huang Jia Chao, another person also obtained a place to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Similar to Duan Ling Tian, everyone had not seen or heard of this person prior to the competition. This person was a woman who was even more beautiful than He Qian, the Young Miss of the He clan.

Needless to say, in Duan Ling Tian’s eyes, this woman’s appearance was only slightly above average. She was far from being comparable to his two wives, Ke’er and Li Fei, or even his partner, Feng Tian Wu, let alone Huan’er.

As Duan Ling Tian watched the woman flying back to her seat among the spectators after securing a spot to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, he speculated inwardly, ‘She’s a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial and owns a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon… No one present seems to know her. She has to have an extraordinary background or a strong powerhouse supporting her.’

It was only when the woman took her seat that everyone, including Duan Ling Tian, noticed the old woman sitting next to her. The old woman who was inconspicuous earlier instantly attracted everyone’s attention.

Hu Lin Yi, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation, extended his Divine Consciousness to probe the old woman. “One Basic Celestial King?!” He only frowned slightly and remained silent when the old woman looked at him after sensing his Divine Consciousness. He was not just an ordinary Two Forms Celestial King; he was widely regarded as one of the strongest Two Forms Celestial Kings. He was almost as strong as a Three Talents Celestial King. Despite that, he did not think it was unnecessary to make a fuss over that old woman.

The second day of the Southern Heaven Combat came to an end as night fell. Three participants secured their spots to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Currently, there were only five spots left to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.

At this moment, a eunuch approached Duan Ling Tian with an invitation from Hu Lin Yi, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation. “Young Master Duan, as a sectless cultivator, you can stay in the Imperial Palace’s Origin Gathering Hall to cultivate until it’s time for you to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.”

“Origin Gathering Hall?” Although Duan Ling Tian had stayed in the Imperial Palace the previous night, the accommodation assigned to him was only an ordinary temporary residence. Although it was his first time hearing about the Origin Gathering Hall, he was certain it must be a good place to cultivate in.

The eunuch seemed to be startled by Duan Ling Tian’s lack of knowledge about the Origin Gathering Hall. He asked, “Young Master Duan, is it possible that you’re not a citizen of the Supporting Fall Nation?”

“Why do you ask?” Duan Ling Tian asked curiously. Did this mean every citizen in the Supporting Fall Nation knew about the Origin Gathering Hall?

“Apart from the cultivation place for the direct descendants of the Imperial family, the Origin Gathering Hall is the best place to cultivate in the Supporting Fall Nation… The various Origin Gathering Formations in the Origin Gathering Hall are linked to the cultivation place of the Imperial family’s direct descendants that’s connected to the only mediocre Celestial Crystal Vein in our nation!” The eunuch explained, “Almost every citizen of the Supporting Fall Nation has heard of the Origin Gathering Hall.”

“As expected.” Duan Ling Tian nodded.

After their exchange, the eunuch led Duan Ling Tian and Liu Guang Lin to the Origin Gathering Hall in the Supporting Fall Nation’s Imperial Palace.

…

The Origin Gathering Hall seemed like a palace of its own that housed many small individual courtyards. Despite the size of the small courtyards, they were fully equipped with the necessary facilities. All of the courtyards boasted two rooms and a small well-kept compound with a small pound. Moreover, a eunuch and a maid were assigned to each courtyard.

“This is Young Master Duan.” The eunuch who was sent by the emperor introduced Duan Ling Tian to the eunuch and the maid standing at the entrance of the courtyard.

After the introductions, the maid led Duan Ling Tian and Liu Guang Lin into the courtyard.

Duan Ling Tian found out the maid was responsible for everything in the courtyard while the eunuch was to run errands for the people living in the courtyard and the maid.

Duan Ling Tian dismissed the maid not long after he entered the courtyard. After that, he said to Liu Guang Lin, “Guang Lin, I’m going to cultivate over the next few days to see if I can break through the bottleneck of my cultivation. If there’s nothing urgent, don’t let anyone disturb me.”

“Yes, my lord,” Liu Guang Lin replied respectfully. After Duan Ling Tian entered one of the rooms, he sat down in the compound to cultivate so he could guard Duan Ling Tian. Moreover, the cultivation environment in the compound was no different from the cultivation environment in the rooms.

After entering the room, Duan Ling Tian set up a few basic Formations to keep Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy from leaking out of the room. Then, he brought out the Divine Crystal Huan’er had left for him. As soon as he brought the Divine Crystal out, rich and dense Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy filled the room, providing Duan Ling Tian with the perfect cultivation environment.

Although the cultivation environment of the Origin Gathering Hall in the Supporting Fall Nation’s Imperial Palace was good, it was not comparable to the cultivation environment provided by the Divine Crystal.

Based on Duan Ling Tian’s earlier words to Liu Guang Lin, it was clear he did not intend to continue spectating the Southern Heaven Combat now that he had secured a spot to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. The Southern Heaven Combat would continue for another three days before it officially came to an end.

On the third day of the Southern Heaven Combat.

The Fourth Prince of the Supporting Fall Nation finally made a move and secured a place for himself as well.

Apart from that, a disciple of a faction in the Supporting Fall Nation also obtained a place to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.

…

On the fourth day of the Southern Heaven Combat, Huang Jia Long who had recovered from his injuries was the only one to secure a place in the Southern Heaven Combat.

On the fifth day, the final two people claimed their spots.

With that, the Southern Heaven Combat officially came to an end.

…

Although the Southern Heaven Combat had ended, people in the Supporting Fall Nation’s capital were still talking about the nine people who had obtained a chance to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Among these nine people, Duan Ling Tian was the most talked about. After all, his performance was so amazing that he outshone the other eight people. Even the limelight on Hu Ji Yong, the Fourth Prince of the Supporting Fall Nation, had been stolen by Duan Ling Tian.

“Huang Jia Long, the son of the City Governor of Passage City, is probably ranked in the top three among the nine participants. However, the gap between his strength and Duan Ling Tian is way too wide, right?”

“Although Huang Jia Long attacked with all his might, he could not even breach Duan Ling Tian’s defenses. Only those who were present at that time knew how terrifyingly strong Duan Ling Tian is.”

“Yes! I was there! Duan Ling Tian’s defense is indeed very terrifying! His attack was equally as terrifying! He managed to injure and defeat Huang Jia Long with just a blow from his staff!”

“That Duan Ling Tian is a monster! I don’t know where he sprung out from…”

“It’s obvious he’s not a simple person based on the two Royal Grade Celestial Weapons he owns.”

Although quite some time had passed since the Southern Heaven Combat ended, everyone was still fervently discussing it. Moreover, 60% of the conversation revolved around Duan Ling Tian. This was unsurprising since his performance was truly outstanding.

Apart from that, the people also spoke about Hu Ji Yong, the Fourth Prince of the Supporting Fall Nation. They did not doubt he was brilliant, but he really paled in comparison to Duan Ling Tian.

They also discussed Huang Jia Long’s defeat in Duan Ling Tian’s hand. No one thought he was weak for losing. They only thought Duan Ling Tian was too strong.

Huang Jia Chao, Huang Jia Long’s younger brother, was also discussed. He was the strongest after Duan Ling Tian, Hu Ji Yong, and Huang Jia Long.

Naturally, they also discussed the only two female participants who managed to secure a spot to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. One of them was He Qian, the daughter of the Clan Leader of He clan, and the mysterious girl whose name was Hu Fei Yan.

“Not only is Hu Fei Yan prettier than He Qian, but she seems to be stronger than He Qian as well!”

“She’s rather similar to Duan Ling Tian. No one has heard of them prior to the Southern Heaven Combat.”

“I heard that the old woman who accompanied her during the Southern Heaven Combat is a One Basic Celestial King!”

Duan Ling Tian who had left the Imperial Palace after coming out from his closed-door cultivation was currently sitting with Liu Guang Lin at a corner of a restaurant in the Supporting Fall Nation’s capital. He had, naturally, heard the conversations in his surroundings.

“A Celestial King?” Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow. In fact, when he had first seen the old woman, his instinct had told him the old woman was not a simple person. Although it was just a rumor that the old woman was a Celestial King, he did not think it was completely groundless.

Most of the people in the restaurant who were gossiping about Duan Ling Tian had only heard of him and had not actually seen him. For this reason, they were unaware that the person they were discussing was quietly sitting at a corner of the restaurant.

At this moment, everyone in the restaurant abruptly fell silent.

“Hmm?” The jarring silence, naturally, caught Duan Ling Tian’s attention.

Soon after, an ingratiating and extremely respectful voice echoed in the restaurant. “Young master, please come in.”

Similar to everyone else, Duan Ling Tian turned to look in the direction of the voice and saw a tall and handsome young man dressed in brocade robes walking into the restaurant with long and powerful strides.
