Chapter 3251: Hot Potatoes

The expressions of the members from the Blood Skull Gang changed drastically when they saw Duan Ling Tian directly killing Leng Ye.

“Chen Yuan Shan!” the red-clad middle-aged man, the Leader of the Blood Skull Gang, called out as he turned to look at one of the members standing behind him. Following that, he said in a deep voice, “Back then, it was your son who accepted the job to assassinate Duan Ling Tian. If the Blood Skull Gang is destroyed today, the sin will fall on you!”

“My lord, this isn’t the time to be blaming each other,” Chen Yuan Shan said with a bitter smile, “It’s obvious Duan Ling Tian doesn’t intend to let the Blood Skull Gang go. Otherwise, why would he destroy our headquarters?”

The expression of the red-clad middle-aged man changed as soon as he heard Chen Yuan Shan’s words. Indeed, Chen Yuan Shan had a point.

Without waiting for the red-clad middle-aged man to respond, Chen Yuan Shan continued to say, “My lord, let’s attack all at once. Even if we do nothing, we’ll still die anyway…”

With Chen Yuan Shan’s instigation, the Blood Skull Gang high-ranking officials present on the scene made a move immediately.

Dazzling energies in various colors shot toward Duan Ling Tian in just a blink of an eye.

“Perfect,” Duan Ling Tian said as his fighting spirit rose. Subsequently, he flew forward as he activated his space energy to deal with the attacks from the high-ranking officials of the Blood Skull Gang.

With the first move, Duan Ling Tian killed Chen Yuan Shan; with his second move, he killed the Leader of the Blood Skull Gang. Following that, he continued to kill the high-ranking officials of the Blood Skull Gang one after another.

In the end, after witnessing the deaths of their comrades, the surviving high-ranking officials of the Blood Skull Gang lost all will to fight and began to flee in different directions.

In one move, Chen Yuan Shan was killed.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Nonetheless, Duan Ling Tian cast his Cross-Dimensional Slash Profundity and sent nine sword rays after them. Needless to say, all of them died.

From the beginning to the end, Zhuge Yun only watched indifferently. When the battle ended, she could not help but ask Zhuge Feng who was standing next to you, “Hey, at his age, you didn’t manage to become a Celestial Lord, right?”

Zhuge Feng responded indifferently, “Isn’t it the same for you?”

At Duan Ling Tian’s age, the Zhuge siblings were only Celestial Kings, unlike Duan Ling Tian who was a Celestial Lord. It should be noted that the twins had joined the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect since they were young and enjoyed the vast resources the sect provided them. Even then, their achievement at Duan Ling Tian’s age was inferior to Duan Ling Tian’s achievement now. Therefore, they were slightly embarrassed when they witnessed Duan Ling Tian’s performance.

After a brief moment, Zhuge Yun asked with a smile, “Are we going to return to the Jade Emperor Heaven now?”

“Senior, I’d like to go to the Heavenly Territory’s Phantom Fox Clan… I’m worried the He Clan will spread the word about my connection to the Profound Nether Mansion. If that happens, the main Phantom Fox Clan might cause trouble for the Profound Nether Mansion.” Then, he glanced at Huan’er before he continued to say, “Moreover, as long as Huan’er is still alive, they won’t stop trying to capture her or kill her…”

“They want to capture Huan’er?” The smile on Zhuge Yun’s face disappeared immediately and was replaced with a frosty expression. “The Phantom Fox Clan is really bold…”

Duan Ling Tian explained, “Huan’er is a rare Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox. Only one would appear every 1,000,000 years. She’s from the Du Clan, but the Phantom Fox Clan here is mainly controlled by the Zhang Clan and Yuan Clan. Therefore, there’s no way they would allow her to leave since she’s a threat to their power. Since both of you are here, I’d like to ask you to give the Phantom Fox Clan a warning so they won’t dare to target her anymore…”

“A warning? I’m afraid that’s not all they’d get.” Zhuge Yun smiled icily. “We should kill at least a few of their Celestial Emperors.”

Duan Ling Tian was rendered speechless by Zhuge Yun’s words. Kill a few Celestial Emperors? She spoke about killing Celestial Emperors as though they were as easy to kill as ants. He thought to himself with a sigh, ‘When I will I be powerful enough to utter such words with confidence?’

Duan Ling Tian was aware that despite his cultivation base, his strength was currently comparable to an ordinary One Basic Celestial Emperor. However, to exert all his strength meant that he would have to expose many of his techniques that he would prefer to keep hidden. In fact, he even had no intention of revealing his true strength to the Zhuge siblings. Although the siblings seemed to harbor no ill intentions at this moment, would they be able to resist the temptation if they knew about the treasures in his Little World?

In the mundane realms, there was no shortage of usually affectionate siblings fighting for inheritance. Therefore, Duan Ling Tian knew he could not carelessly reveal his strength unless it was absolutely necessary.

The people Duan Ling Tian had met in the past were not very exposed and their knowledge was limited. Therefore, they did not know about the Five Divine Elements. However, the people around him now were different. There was no doubt they knew what the Five Divine Elements were. It was entirely possible that the Zhuge siblings knew about the Five Divine Elements and were able to identify them.

During their journey to a Devata Realm Transporting Formation to head to the Seven Upper Provinces’ Heavenly Territory in the Spirit Overarching Realm, Duan Ling Tian decided to test the water. He asked, “Seniors, have you heard about the Five Divine Elements?”

“Of course,” Zhuge Yun replied without any hesitation. “All Five Divine Elements are priceless. If you’re able to evolve one to the highest form, it’d be able to increase your strength tremendously. I heard that if you possess one Divine Element at the sixth form, their potential to become a god is really high!” A hint of longing could be seen in Zhuge Yun’s eyes when she finished speaking.

‘I see.’ Duan Ling Tian inhaled sharply inwardly upon hearing Zhuge Yun’s words. This confirmed his earlier thoughts. He was even more determined not to expose the fact that he possesses all Five Divine Elements. He was now even more certain he could not use any of the Five Divine Element’s power because Zhuge Feng and Zhuge Yun would definitely be able to recognize them. Unlike the others he had encountered in the past, they would not mistake the Five Divine Elements’ energies as energies from the profundities of a law.

“Why did you ask?” Zhuge Yun asked curiously.

“When I was in the Genius Secret Realm, I heard one of the grassroots prodigies talking about the Chaos Divine Flame. They said it could replace the Pill Fire,” Duan Ling Tian replied, “It was then I learned that there’s such an amazing thing in this world.”

“The Chaos Divine Flame is just one of the Five Divine Elements,” Zhuge Yun shook her head and said with a smile, “There are also the Profound Divine Metal, the World Cleansing Divine Water, the Clear Heavens Divine Wood, and the Chaos Divine Earth… Perhaps, no one would be able to recognize them as Divine Elements if they were in their first form. In fact, most people would think they were useless. The Five Divine Elements are indestructible, even gods might not be able to destroy them, most people would still think the Divine Elements are useless. This applied to the gods as well. After all, there were many things that don’t have much use but are indestructible in the Realms of Gods.”

Upon hearing these words, Duan Ling Tian recalled Xia Jie, Ke’er’s third uncle in her past life, who had given him the first-form Profound Divine Metal. There was no doubt Xia Jie knew about the Five Divine Elements. However, at that time, the Profound Divine Metal was still in its form so Xia Jie, a god from the Realm of Gods, did not recognize it.

Earlier, when he heard Zhuge Yun’s words, he was baffled. If she knew about the Five Divine Elements, why did Xia Jie, a god, not know about the Five Divine Elements. However, he now realized it was not that Xia Jie did not know about the Five Divine Elements. It was because the Profound Divine Metal was still in its first form so Xia Jie could not tell it was one of the Five Divine Elements.

Zhuge Yun continued to say, “Once the Five Divine Elements reach their second form, we’ll be able to identify them. Needless to say, if a second-form Divine Element appears, people would fight to the death for it, and this includes Celestial Emperors and titled Celestial Emperors.”

Duan Ling Tian stiffened slightly upon hearing these words. “Even titled Celestial Emperors would fight for a second-form Divine Element?”

In his Little World, Duan Ling Tian had all five of the Divine Elements! If words spread about this, would Heavenly Emperors from different Devata Realms hunt him down to obtain the Five Divine Elements in his Little World? He inhaled deeply when he thought about this possibility.

After listening to Zhuge Yun, Duan Ling Tian felt the Five Divine Elements were like hot potatoes. However, those who possessed them might invite disaster if they were not kept a secret. Based on the way Zhuge Yun spoke about the Divine Elements, she might even be the first to try to snatch them away from him if she found out that he possessed the Five Divine Elements.

“We are here.”

After a while, Duan Ling Tian and the others finally arrived at a Devata Realm Transporting Formation. They did not waste time and stepped into the Formation and were immediately transported to the Heavenly Territory.

After arriving at the Heavenly Territory, it took them a few days before they found the Phantom Fox Clan’s estate. Naturally, they did not waste time and made their way there immediately.

Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, ‘Although the main Phantom Fox Clan in the Heavenly Territory is a grade-one force. Their strength is only comparable to the Nan Dou Territory’s Profound Sky Dao Sect, the Thousand Hands Devil Sect, and the Profound Cat Clan. All these forces are not a match for the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect at all.’ He came to this conclusion because he knew the ruler of the Heavenly Territory was only a titled Celestial Lord. There were no titled Celestial Lords in the Phantom Fox Clan. Even if there were other titled Celestial Lords, they were elusive and mostly kept to themselves.

If a grade-one force had a titled Celestial Lord, they would not allow an unknown titled Celestial Lord to rule the Heavenly Territory. This situation was somewhat similar to how the Nan Dou Territory’s Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect, the Ancient Phoenix Clan, and the Baili Clan did not allow a titled Celestial Emperor to rule the Nan Dou Territory since they were strong enough to govern the territory.

After two days, Duan Ling Tian and the others finally arrived at the Phantom Fox Clan’s estate. The estate was divided into two areas; one belonging to the Zhang Clan and the other belonged to the Yuan Clan.

As Duan Ling Tian looked at the Phantom Fox Clan’s estate from afar, he thought to himself, ‘Zhang Jin Yi from the main Phantom Fox Clan in the Heavenly Territory who went to the Southern Heaven Territory to capture Huan’er should be from the Zhang Clan. Moreover, he’s likely a direct descendant of the Zhang Clan.’
