Chapter 1609: Going to the Dark Nether Sect to Rescue the Others

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A hint of surprise could be seen in Bai Li Hong’s eyes when he looked at Duan Ling Tian.

Although he had long heard his junior brother’s current strength was extremely extraordinary, it was just rumors that he had heard. He was shocked now that he had witnessed it for himself.

The person-in-charge of Dark Nether Sect’s base at the capital of Windfall Nation, a Vice Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect, Zhou Su, had died just like that.

Although Bai Li Hong did not stay for long in the Dark Nether Sect, he had already heard of Zhou Su. He knew Zhou Su was the third strongest person in the Dark Nether Sect. He was only weaker than the Sect Leader and Supreme Elder of the sect. Both of them were Saint Stage powerhouses.

‘This Zhou Shu was ranked 30th in the Heaven Ranking since more than years ago… Although he did not challenge anyone who’s ranked ahead of him in recent years, no one could remove him from his position either. His real strength is very likely stronger than the 30th place in the Heaven Ranking,” Bai Li Hong thought to himself before he gasped. He was still overwhelmed by Duan Ling Tian’s strength.

On the other hand, Tan Chi was looking at Duan Ling Tian with fear and wariness.

“He actually killed Zhou Shu… Moreover, he killed him with just one move! How’s that possible! Even if we were to compare Zhou Shu’s strength to Lady Feng from Drift Blaze Sect, he’s not any weaker than her. In fact, he’s stronger than her. What kind of monster is Duan Ling Tian to be able to kill Zhou Shu so easily.” Tan Chi was bewildered. Up until now, he still could not believe what he had witnessed was real.

Meanwhile, the two Dark Nether Sect’s elders’ expressions had changed when they saw Zhou Shu’s head being severed from his body. There was only fear left in their eyes when they looked at Duan Ling Tian.

They only felt helpless as they faced Duan Ling Tian who had killed the third strongest person in the Dark Nether Sect.

Duan Ling Tian stood on his flying sword as his purple robe fluttered even though there was no wind. His eyes landed on Tan Chi as he asked Bai Li Hong, “Senior Brother, in the voice transmission jade token you sent to me, you mentioned someone forced you, Uncle Feng, and the others to the Dark Nether Sect… It should be him, right?”

Tan Chi’s expression changed dramatically when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words.

“That’s right! It’s him!” Bai Li Hong nodded while he glared at Tan Chi.

If it was not for Tan Chi who had kidnapped them to the Dark Nether Sect, they would have arrived at the capital of Windfall Nation long ago and be reunited with his junior brother without any trouble.

“Mis… Misunderstanding! It’s a misunderstanding!” When Tan Chi’s saw Duan Ling Tian’s gaze turned ferocious as he stared at him, his originally glum expression became worse. However, he still tried to force a smile on his face. His smile looked uglier than if he were to cry.

At this moment, Tan Chi really wanted to escape. However, as soon as he remembered Zhou Shu, he stood rooted to the spot.

Zhou Shu’s strength was far superior to his strength, he could never catch up to Zhou Shu in terms of speed. How could he escape when even Zhou Shu had failed to escape the purple-clad young man before him?

“Misunderstanding?” Bai Li Hong sneered.

Tan Chi ignored Bai Li Hong. He was staring at Duan Ling Tian intently, looking for the changes in his expression. It was as though he was trying to determine Duan Ling Tian’s emotion. Then he looked back at the flying sword beneath his feet. It was the first time he saw a Territory that could transform into a sword.

The sword seemed to contain an extremely terrifying power. It could be seen when it killed Zhou Shu with just one move.

Tan Chi’s eyes widened when he noticed the flying sword beneath Duan Ling Tian’s feet had suddenly lit up. At this moment, he felt a swift and piercing aura targeted at him! That aura, naturally, came from the flying sword beneath Duan Ling Tian’s feet.

Tan Chi’s thoughts were frozen in that instant.

Xiu!

The short-lived sound of a sword whistling in the air rang by Bai Li Hong and the two other Dark Nether Sect elders’ ears. It rang by Tan Chi’s ears as well.

That fleeting sword cry was the last thing he heard in his life.

Duan Ling Tian flew by quickly with his feet on his sword. Similar to Zhou Su, Tan Chi had also been decapitated.

In just a short period of time, the two Vice Sect Leaders of Dark Nether Sect were killed by Duan Ling Tian’s sword.

Shua! Shua!

After witnessing this, the two Dark Nether Sect’s elders’ expressions changed instantly. They exchanged a look before fleeing in different directions. They did not think Duan Ling Tian would spare their lives.

Although they were uncertain if they would be able to escape, they knew they would definitely die if they did not try to escape.

“Humph!” Duan Ling Tian snorted when he saw the two Dark Nether Sect’s elders fleeing in different directions.

At this moment, the flying sword beneath his feet shone brilliantly like the sun and encompassed the entire area. In just a blink of an eye, tens of thousands of sword rays were flying in all directions.

These sword rays seemed to have eyes of their own as they avoided Bai Li Hong. He was not harmed at all. On the other hand, the Dark Nether Sect’s elders were instantly pierced by the sword rays until they looked like a beehive. Their bodies were filled with many wounds. Soon after, they lost their breaths.

Duan Ling Tian did not have to use the Devilseal Tablet at all to kill two Vice Sect Leaders and two elders from the Dark Nether Sect even though they were all fairly powerful Devil Cultivators. He managed to kill all of them with his own strength. It was clear that he was invincible against those below the Saint Stage.

The rapid change of the situation had shocked Bai Li Hong.

“Senior Brother.”

Bai Li Hong only regained his senses when Duan Ling Tian called out to him. There was a complicated look in his eyes when he looked at Duan Ling Tian with a smile on his face. He was happy with Duan Ling Tian’s current achievement.

Once upon a time, his junior brother had needed his protection. However, his junior brother’s strength had now surpassed him.

“Senior Brother, bring me to the Dark Nether Sect,” Duan Ling Tian said to Bai Li Hong.

Dark Nether Sect!

After hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, Bai Li Hong’s eyes lit up. He asked, “Junior Brother, is the Situ Clan helping us?”

“No,” Duan Ling Tian shook his head and said, “It’s just me and you, Senior Brother.”

“Just us?”

Bai Li Hong frowned immediately. “Junior Brother this is not a joke… Although Zhou Shu whom you’ve just killed was the third strongest person in the Dark Nether Sect, the two strongest people in the sect, the Sect Leader and the Supreme Elder, are Saint Stage powerhouses! Unless there’s a way to not alert them to our presence, it would be very difficult to rescue the others under their watch. That aside, as soon as we start fighting, they’ll be alerted to our presence,” Bai Li Hong said. His voice sounded helpless.

“Senior Brother, I know all these. Don’t worry. I have a plan,” Duan Ling Tian said.

Suddenly, a thought popped up in Bai Li Hong’s mind. He stared at Duan Ling Tian intently and asked, “Junior Brother… H-have you broken through to the Saint Stage?”

“No.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head. Although he had the assistance of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, and his cultivation was progressing very quickly, he was still quite a distance away from entering the Saint Stage. Even with the help of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, he would require more time.

“No?”

Bai Li Hong was disappointed when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s answer. “Junior Brother, I’m not underestimating you… You’re very strong. You might even be able to rank first in the Heaven Ranking. However, even the first person in the Heaven Ranking is still defenseless before a Saint Stage powerhouse… The gap between a Saint Stage powerhouse and non-Saint Stage powerhouse is just too wide. It’s going to be difficult to save the others without alerting the two Saint Stage powerhouses.” Bai Li Hong was very certain of this.

This was because he knew Tan Chi had gone to the Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect before they left the sect’s estate and told him about the likelihood of Bai Li Hong becoming a Four Star Saint Inscription Master.

The Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect was very concerned about this, that was why he had decided to personally keep a watch on Feng Wu Dao and the others. He knew that Bai Li Hong would only work for the Dark Nether Sect and inscribe Saint Inscriptions for them if Feng Wu Dao and the others were kept in the Dark Nether Sect.

Under such circumstances, it would be difficult to rescue the others without alerting the Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect.

“Senior Brother, don’t worry about it. I’m confident I can rescue them.” Even after Bai Li Hong explained the situation to Duan Ling Tian, he still seemed very confident. It was as though two Saint Stage powerhouses were nothing for him to worry about.

It was not the first or second day Bai Li Hong knew Duan Ling Tian. Naturally, he knew Duan Ling Tian was not one to make empty promises.

Although he did not know why Duan Ling Tian was so confident, he no longer tried to dissuade him.

After both of them left the capital of Windfall Nation, Bai Li Hong brought Duan Ling Tian to the Dark Nether Sect’s estate.

During the journey there, Duan Ling Tian was filled with excitement.

“I didn’t think I’d receive news about Uncle Feng so quickly… When Uncle Feng learns that I’ve already found Tian Wu, he would be elated. After so many years, this pair of father and daughter will finally be reunited.” At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was thinking about Feng Tian Wu who was at the Drift Blaze Sect.

Meanwhile, the Dark Nether Sect’s base in the capital was in chaos.

Due to the bloody stench from the corpses of the Vice Sect Leaders and elders of Dark Nether Sect, it attracted the attention of many Dark Nether Sect’s disciples.

The news that they had all been killed spread widely and quickly.

“Surprise?” In the Situ Clan’s mansion, Situ Hao, the Clan Leader of Situ Clan, had just finished listening to his son’s report about their Interim Advisor, Duan Ling Tian. Suddenly, a figure rushed in without any notice.

It was none other than one of the Supreme Elders in Situ Clan, Situ Hou. Only he would dare to barge in without giving any prior notice.
