Chapter 1871: The Tragedy, Duan Ling Tian

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The absence of the Nine-clawed Divine Dragon’s force meant that Duan Ling Tian would not be forcefully sent out. Since that was the case, it was possible for Duan Ling Tian to completely absorb all the liquid Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy inside the Dragon Cleansing Pool.

At that time, who knew how much he would improve? However, it would certainly improve by more than two stages at least.

After all, the liquid Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in there had been accumulated for 5,000 years

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian was unaware of all this. He did not know how long he had spent inside the Dragon Cleansing Pool. He opened his eyes and glanced at the water level in the Dragon Cleansing Pool. He discovered he had merely absorbed less than a tenth of the liquid Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy inside the Dragon Cleansing Pool!

‘My cultivation base has progressed from the Intermediate Divine Saint Stage to the peak of the Divine Saint Stage after absorbing a tenth of the liquid Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the Dragon Cleansing Pool! If I could absorb them all… Doesn’t it mean I’ll be able to break through from the Divine Stage to the Exemplary Saint Stage?’ When Duan Ling Tian thought of this, his breathing quickened immediately.

He did not expect the liquid Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy accumulated in the Dragon clan’s Saint Land, the Dragon Cleansing Pool, would be so over the top. It made him feel surreal.

‘However… With so much Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy here, how long does it take to absorb them all before I can leave?’ Duan Ling Tian thought about this soon after.

As soon as he thought about this, Duan Ling Tian saw a flash before his eyes. In the next instant, he felt as though he was suffocating.

Then, he felt his feet were back on dry land.

“Tian’Er!” Simultaneously, a familiar voice rang in Duan Ling Tian’s ears. He could tell it was the voice of his father, Duan Ru Feng.

Usually, Duan Ling Tian would be happy to hear Duan Ru Feng’s voice.

However…

“I… Why am I here?!” Duan Ling Tian was shocked when he saw the valley before his eyes.

One should remember he had merely absorbed less than a tenth of the liquid Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy inside the Dragon Cleansing Pool!

“Why am I sent out when I’ve merely absorbed less than a tenth of the liquid Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy inside the Dragon Cleansing Pool… Could it be due to the thought I had earlier? My last thought seemed to be about exiting the place… Is that really the reason?” Duan Ling Tian was dumbfounded. He was completely frozen.

Rumble!

It was not until a loud noise sounded that Duan Ling Tian regained his senses. Then, he immediately rushed to the door that led to the Dragon Cleansing Pool that was closing before he even responded to his father’s question.

Sou!

Duan Ling Tian rushed through the door as quick as lightning before the door closed. However, even when he passed through the door, he was still in the valley. He was not transported back to the Dragon Cleansing Pool.

“I can no longer enter it?” Duan Ling Tian realized the futility of his action at this point.

When he looked up again, he instinctively looked at the door and saw that it was slowly disappearing after the door had closed. It slowly turned translucent before it completely disappeared before his eyes.

“Tian’Er, you’re…” Duan Ru Feng was baffled. Since he had been outside the entire time, he did not know what was going on. He even felt glad when he saw his son had come out.

Who knew his son would not only ignore him, but his son even wanted to re-enter the Dragon Cleansing Pool… However, the Dragon Cleansing Pool only opened once every 5,000 years. Once someone entered it, no one else could enter for another 5,000 years!

After the person who went in came out, the door to the Dragon Cleansing Pool would be closed until it appeared again in another 5,000 years. At that time, they could open the door to the Dragon Cleansing Pool with the Sun key and Lunar Key again.

“Father, I…” Now that Duan Ling Tian had time to respond to Duan Ru Feng, he did not know what to say except to smile bitterly.

“Junior Brother Ling Tian!”

“Young Mansion Master.”

Gu Li and Ku Mi who also sat cross-legged in the air had opened their eyes. As soon as they opened their eyes, they looked at Duan Ling Tian. An expression of surprise was on their faces.

They both sighed in relief when they saw Duan Ling Tian had come out safely.

Finally, under the watchful eyes of Duan Ru Feng and the others, Duan Ling Tian told them about his blunder. A blunder that cost him the chance to absorb more of the liquid Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy inside the Dragon Cleansing Pool and cultivate!

The chance was there for him to rapidly break through from the Divine Saint Stage to the Exemplary Saint Stage, but he did not cherish it properly. If Heaven gave him a chance to do things over, he would not think about leaving!

Damn it!

It was because he thought about leaving that he was sent out by the Dragon Cleansing Pool.

“Is… Is that possible?” Gu Li was dumbfounded.

He expected Duan Ling Tian to squeeze every last drop of benefit he could get before leaving. However, Duan Ling Tian had only absorbed less than a tenth of the liquid Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy inside Dragon Cleansing Pool. Moreover, he had personally sent himself out! Although it was unintentional, it was still a fact.

As for Duan Ru Feng and Ku Mi, they remained silent, feeling somewhat sorry for Duan Ling Tian. Indeed, Duan Ling Tian was quite pitiful.

“Nevermind… If it’s meant to be, it will be! I’ll just have to live with this. I’m fine.” Duan Ling Tian quickly came to terms with this matter when he saw how concerned the other three were.

Even if it’s the peak of the Divine Saint Stage, one should not be in a rush to break through. Sooner or later, one would still be able to break through. Moreover, his biggest gain was not the improvement to his cultivation base from the liquid Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy, it was the fact that he was now a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior and the changes in the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique. Both were much more valuable than the improvement of his cultivation base.

“Moreover, I merely spent less than three months to break through to the Mastery Divine Saint Stage from the Intermediate Saint Stage. That itself is worthy of others’ envy!”

Once Duan Ling Tian came to terms with this, he was able to let the matter go.

Having seen Duan Ling Tian was unaffected by the matter, Duan Ru Feng and the other two were no longer worried when they saw Duan Ling Tian was no longer affected by this matter. They were really worried Duan Ling Tian would not be able to let the matter go.

“Nothing’s certain… I’ll ask Di Shan again when we leave. We’ll see if there’s another way to enter the Dragon Cleansing Pool.” Duan Ru Feng comforted him.

“Father, that’s not necessary.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head. The door that led to the Dragon Cleansing Pool had disappeared. He was absolutely certain the final answer would be the same even if Duan Ru Feng spoke to Di Shan.

He believed his father knew that as well. His words were just to comfort him.

Although Duan Ling Tian said it was not necessary, Duan Ru Feng still casually asked Di Shan before they left the dragon clan and returned the Lunar Key.

“Clan Leader Di Shan, if someone was sent out by accident after entering the Dragon Cleansing Pool for less than a month, is it possible for them to re-enter it?”

“Impossible!” Di Shan shook his head. “For those who had entered the Dragon Cleansing Pool, no matter how long they were in it, there’s no possibility of them re-entering it… The Dragon Cleansing Pool only opens once every 5,000 years, and only one person may enter every time!”

Naturally, Di Shan did not think Duan Ru Feng was asking the question on his son’s behalf. This was because he knew Duan Ling Tian was in the Dragon Cleansing Pool for more than two months… In his opinion, it was normal. There was no way an accidental departure could happen.

After hearing Di Shan’s words, Duan Ling Tian completely let the matter go.

Although he previously felt that it was unlikely, he still had a small ray of hope in his heart when he heard his father’s question to Di Shan. After listening to Di Shan’s answer, he felt slightly disappointed. However, he put on an expression of realization when he heard Di Shan’s reply.

Di Shan sighed as he watched Duan Ling Tian and the others leave. He seemed to have aged overnight.

The dragon clan had suffered double losses in the five-year pact they made! Not only did they lose the future Clan Leader of the dragon clan, but they had also lost the chance to enter the Dragon Cleansing Pool that would only appear once every 5,000 years.

If the matter was heard by the Upper Province’s Dragon clan, he would inevitably suffer from rumors when he goes to the Upper Province’s dragon clan in the future because the Lower Province’s dragon clan had never had such a useless Clan Leader like him.

On the other hand, after Duan Ling Tian and the others left the Dragon clan, they immediately returned to the Azure Cloud Mansion.

“After I return to the Azure Cloud Mansion and accompany Mother, Little Fei’Er, and Nian’Er for a while, I’ll go to the Upper Province to look for Ke’er.”

During their journey back, Duan Ling Tian had already begun to make plans.

There was no benefit to him, his family or the Azure Cloud Mansion if he continued to stay at the Lower Province.

‘Moreover, I have to return to Windfall Nation before leaving the Lower Province. I have to see if Tian Wu has returned and bring Senior Brother and Uncle Feng to the Azure Cloud Mansion. Staying at the Azure Cloud Mansion is much safer than staying in Windfall Nation.’ Even as Duan Ling Tian prepared to head to the Upper Province, he did not forget about his family and friends.

Duan Ling Tian was unaware that during the three months he spent in the Dragon Cleansing Pool, news about him had spread everywhere.

Duan Ling Tian, the lucky guy who obtained the Devilseal Tablet several years ago, was the son of the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion. He was the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion.

Naturally, it caused a commotion among those who heard the news.

“It can’t be! The person who obtained the Devilseal Tablet back then… He’s actually the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion?”

“I originally thought that man had disappeared completely. As it turns out, he did not disappear. He’s just at the Azure Cloud Mansion!”

“Incredible! Incredible!”

…

As the news spread, similar remarks were heard everywhere.

Outside the dragon clan’s lair, the Five-clawed Green Dragon, Qing Yan, who was also one of the Five-clawed Divine Dragon elders, stood in the air while he looked in the direction of the Azure Cloud Mansion. He muttered, “Duan Ling Tian, Azure Cloud Mansion… Prepare yourselves for the powerhouses from the Upper Province! I will now head to the Upper Province to spread the news about the Devilseal Tablet being in possession of the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion!”

As soon as Qing Yan finished speaking, he disappeared immediately.

He was heading to the passage that connected to the Upper Province at lightning speed.
