Chapter 3181: The Upper Realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Territory

A Celestial King could create Little Worlds anywhere, and they could hold living things as well.

When Duan Ling Tian had just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven, he had entered the Little World created by the Celestial King from the Blissful Sect. It was in that Little World that he had a fateful encounter with the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect’s Murong Bing.

‘Everything has gone quite smoothly so far… In less than 100 years since I ascended here, I’ve already become a Celestial King. I have 900 years left to get stronger. I’m going to set a goal for myself today; I must stand at the pinnacle of this Devata Realm within 500 years. I’ll have 400 years left after that to get even stronger so that I can enter the Divine Offering Realm to save Ke’er, Fei’er, and the others!’

After Duan Ling Tian casually tried to create a Little World, he destroyed it once he confirmed he could create another Little World.

“I’m a Celestial King now…” Duan Ling Tian rose to his feet after he opened his eyes. Although he had a taste of what it was like to possess the strength of a Celestial King in the past, it felt different now that the strength was his own and not granted by the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon.

Half an hour later, Duan Ling Tian arrived at the backyard of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion’s backyard.

“Senior.”

“You’ve broken through?” The old man was still fishing. He did not turn around to look at Duan Ling Tian, but it was obvious he knew Duan Ling Tian had broken through and become a Celestial King.

“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded.

“Not bad… You managed to break through in less than half a month. Although it’s largely due to the Celestial Fruits, it wouldn’t be so quick if you’re not talented as well,” the old man said, “You can continue comprehending the law of space over this period of time. If possible, try not to leave the Profound Nether Mansion before becoming a Ten Directions Celestial King. You’ve made many enemies, after all. Apart from the Blood Skull Gang, the Azure Green Mansion has also sent men to spy on our mansion; they’re waiting to kill you if you leave the mansion.”

“A Ten Directions Celestial King? How long must I stay in the mansion then?” Although Duan Ling Tian wanted to break through and become a Ten Directions Celestial King as soon as possible, he was only a One Basic Celestial King now. How long would it take before he became a Ten Directions Celestial King?

“With your talent in cultivation, you should be able to break through in 300 years,” the old man replied.

“300 years?” The corner of Duan Ling Tian’s mouth twitched. He was only almost 100 years old now. 300 years were too long a time to become a Ten Directions Celestial King! Naturally, he was aware that in Devata Realms, the higher one’s cultivation base was, the more difficult it would be to break through.

To become a Ten Directions Celestial King from a One Basic Celestial King, most people would need more than ten times the time it took for them to become a One Basic Celestial King from the moment they cultivated.

The old man replied, “Well, it’s just a conservative guess of mine. The Profound Nether Mansion will do all it can to help you become a Ten Directions Celestial King. We’ll provide you with Celestial Fruits, Celestial Pills, and other resources to ensure you’ll be able to become a Ten Directions Celestial King as soon as possible. If you’re lucky, you might become a Ten Directions Celestial King in less than 300 years.”

The old man continued to say, “At this point, the Profound Nether Mansion still has some resources that can boost your cultivation base. Naturally, these resources aren’t limitless. I have sent the disciples of my disciples to look for Celestial Fruits and Celestial Pills that can help with your cultivation. In any case, you’ll be able to become a Ten Directions Celestial King faster by staying in the Profound Nether Mansion than staying in the Su Clan. It’s a long and slow process to become a Ten Directions Celestial King. There’s nothing as heaven-defying as the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit that can instantly raise your cultivation base to that of a Ten Directions Celestial King.”

Duan Ling Tian fell silent and pondered on the old man’s words.

“Moreover, didn’t you say you want to personally deal with the Blood Skull Gang? With your current strength, you’ll only die if you go against them. From what I know, the Blood Skull Gang sent a Ten Directions Celestial King and two Nine Palaces Celestial Kings this time to assassinate you,” the old man said.

“A Ten Directions Celestial King and two Nine Palace Celestial Kings?” Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow upon hearing these words. However, he was not worried. After all, he still had one use left in the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon that would grant him strength comparable to a One Basic Celestial Lord. With his comprehension of the law of space, he was confident he would be able to kill all the assassins.

Moreover, although one of the assassins was a Ten Directions Celestial King, Duan Ling Tian thought it was unlikely that the assassin had comprehended any profundity to the initial stage. In comparison, he had comprehended the Cross-Dimensional Slash Profundity to the initial stage. With that and the temporary strength of a One Basic Celestial Lord, he was certain he would be able to kill the three assassins from the Blood Skull Gang.

Therefore, Duan Ling Tian did not spare much thought for the assassins from the Blood Skull Gang. Instead, he was wondering if he really had to stay in the Profound Nether Mansion’s estate until he became a Ten Directions Celestial King.

“Senior…” After taking a deep breath, Duan Ling Tian gave voice to the thoughts in his mind. “If I leave the Profound Nether Mansion to explore the Southern Heaven Territory, what are the chances of me coming across fortuitous encounters that will help me become a Ten Directions Celestial King faster?”

“You’re naive!” The old man immediately put his fishing rod down as soon as he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. He rose to his feet and turned around to look at Duan Ling Tian before he continued to say, “The cultivation resources that the Profound Nether Mansion will provide you can be considered a fortuitous encounter as well! Even if you manage to safely leave the mansion’s estate to gather cultivation resources, they won’t be able to compare to the resources the mansion is able to provide you. If you need someone to spar with, I can always suppress my cultivation base to spar with you. You can choose if you want to sustain light scratches, to be severely injured, or incapacitated; I can do it all.” A chilling smile appeared on the old man’s face as soon as he finished speaking.

Chills ran up Duan Ling Tian’s spine when he saw the old man’s smile.

After a beat, the old man said, “This is the Southern Heaven Territory, not the Seven Upper Province… I can’t speak with certainty for the Seven Upper Province, but I can tell you for sure that in the Southern Heaven Territory, your best option is to stay in the Profound Nether Mansion if you want to become a Ten Directions Celestial King in the fastest time possible.”

The old man’s words successfully wiped away Duan Ling Tian’s doubt. After all, he knew his knowledge of the Southern Heaven Territory was lacking in comparison to the old man. After a while, he asked, “Senior, are you planning to send me to the Su Clan after I become a Ten Directions Celestial King?” Duan Ling Tian asked.

“That’s right.”

Duan Ling Tian did not expect the old man would reply to him so candidly.

The old man explained, “Once you become a Ten Directions Celestial King, you can join the Su Clan and enter the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm… In the Southern Heaven Territory, it’s almost impossible to become a Celestial Lord from a Celestial King; you’ll need help or some sort of fortuitous encounter. Therefore, you can only hope to come across some fortuitous encounter in the upper realm to help you break through and become a One Basic Celestial Lord. If the middle realm is a stage for Celestial Dukes, then the upper realm is the stage for Celestial Kings in the Southern Heaven Territory… Regardless if you’re from the Ten Major Clans, the Top Five Sects, or if you’re a sectless cultivator, as long as your cultivation base meets the requirement, you’ll be able to enter the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm to look for fortuitous encounters.”

With the old man’s words, Duan Ling Tian gained knowledge of the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.

“The only place in the Southern Heaven Territory that can possibly help you to become a Ten Directions Celestial King faster than the Profound Nether Mansion is the upper realm. However, the risks of entering the upper realm with your current strength are extremely high; it’ll be akin to suicide if you enter now. For this reason, I didn’t consider letting you enter the upper realm now; not until you’re strong enough to protect yourself in there. However, if you manage to comprehend another profundity from the law of space to the initial stage, I will allow you to enter the upper realm even if you’re only a Seven Stars Celestial King or an Eight Trigrams Celestial King.”

Then, the old man looked at Duan Ling Tian intently and said, “For now, it’s best you stay put in the Profound Nether Mansion’s estate.”

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes widened imperceptibly upon hearing the old man’s words. He asked, “Senior, do you mean to say there are many Celestial Kings in the upper realm who have comprehended one profundity to the initial stage?”

Since Duan Ling Tian had comprehended the law of space’s Cross-Dimensional Slash Profundity to the initial stage, he could easily hold his ground against a Three Talents Celestial King or a Four Phenomena Celestial King. Naturally, if his opponents had comprehended a profundity to the initial stage as well, then he would be no match for them. This was the way things worked; when you had something that others did not, it would be your strength. However, if others possessed what you possessed, it would no longer be your strength.

The old man nodded. “That’s right. Many disciples from the Ten Major Clans and the Top Five Sects have comprehended one profundity to the initial stage. Even if you’ve become a Ten Directions Celestial King now, your strength would only be considered comparable to second-tier disciples due to your comprehension of the law of space.”

The old man’s words were rather effective; Duan Ling Tian no longer felt as gungho as before. Initially, he had been rather confident of his strength. He was certain those below the stage of a Celestial Lord would not be able to harm him once he had become a Ten Directions Celestial King. How could he not feel disheartened after discovering that his strength would only be considered second-tier if he had only comprehended one profundity to the initial stage after becoming a Ten Directions Celestial King?

Nevertheless, it did not take long for Duan Ling Tian to regain his confidence. ‘The pavilion master thinks it’s acceptable as long as I manage to comprehend two profundities to the initial stage when I become a Seven Stars or Eight Trigrams Celestial King… He doesn’t know I possess the Supreme Powerhouse DIvinity from a Supreme Powerhouse who had mastered the law of space. With the Supreme Powerhouse Divinity, the speed of my comprehension is beyond anyone’s imagination.’

Duan Ling Tian, who was persuaded by the old man’s words, finally made up his mind. ‘I’ll stay in the mansion’s estate for now. After comprehending another two profundities from the law of space to the initial stage, I think I’ll be able to enter the upper realm even if I haven’t become a Seven Stars or Eight Trigrams Celestial King at that time…’
