Chapter 1940: White Tiger Sanctum, Liu Mu!Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

‘However, even if Senior Brother Gu Li and Palace Master Zhu master this Secret Tactic and don’t reveal my background, it’s only a temporary solution. With Yang Chong’s position and the Northern Plethora Sect’s network of intelligence, it won’t be difficult for them to investigate my background. It would only be a matter of time before he finds out about the Azure Cloud Mansion in the Lower Province!’ The moment Duan Ling Tian thought of this, his expression turned grave.

“I must get stronger before Yang Chong goes to the Lower Province! At the very least, I must be strong enough to kill Yang Chong by that time! Yang Chong’s a Saint Celestial Stage powerhouse who’s ranked at the 146th of the Supreme Saint Rankings! His cultivation base is definitely not as simple as the First, Second or Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!”

The Supreme Saint Ranking was a list of the strongest powerhouses in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land!

Duan Ling Tian had been in the Black Turtle Sanctum and Fire Worship Sect for quite some time, it was only natural he had learned a thing or two from the disciples here.

For instance, among the 100 powerhouses ranked between the 100th place and the 200th place, the weakest powerhouse was rumored to be at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. The stronger ones were at the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!

Up until now, Duan Ling Tian had encountered four powerhouses who were ranked in the top 200 on the Supreme Saint Ranking. This included Li An, the Black Turtle Sanctum’s First Elder, who was ranked at the front. He was ranked 134th place on the Supreme Saint Ranking. Next was Guo Xiong, the Silver Flame Elder who was also the Enforcement Elder of the Black Turtle Sanctum! He was ranked at the 142nd place. The gap was not too wide between him and Li An. Apart from that, there was Yang Chong, the fifth elder of the Northern Plethora Sect, whom he had just met and Teng Shan, who was also a Silver Flame Elder in the Black Turtle Sanctum. The former was ranked at the 146th place while the latter was ranked 173rd.

Based on this, one could see Li An, Guo Xiong, and Yang Chong’s strength was almost similar. Teng Shan, on the other hand, was a lot weaker.

‘My strength needs to be at the Saint Celestial Stage if I want to kill Yang Chong! Currently, my cultivation base is only at the Divine Saint Stage. It’s too far away from the Saint Celestial Stage! It seems like I must look for more opportunity to devour other people’s Innate Spiritual Root to strengthen my Innate Spiritual Root. As long as I can raise my Innate Spiritual Root to a violet Innate Spiritual Root, with the help of the time flow on the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, it won’t take me long to break through to the Saint Celestial Stage!’ At this moment, all Duan Ling Tian could think about was to get stronger.

He must be strong enough to kill Yang Chong, the fifth elder of the Northern Plethora Sect, before he found out about his background. Otherwise, his family and friends in the Lower Province would be in danger.

If something happened to his parents, wife, son, and friends, he would not be able to forgive himself at all!

At this moment, how Duan Ling Tian wished he was strongest in the entire world!

“I’ll look for Palace Master Zhu first!” After he calmed down, he left the Black Turtle Sanctum and made his way northeast where the Vermilion Bird Sanctum was located.

The Fire Worship Sect’s estate was separated into two areas, the Saint Land and the Four Symbols Sanctums!

The former was surrounded by the latter.

Among the Four Symbols Sanctums, the Azure Dragon Sanctum was located at the west of the Saint Land, the White Tiger Sanctum was located at the east of the Saint Land, the Vermilion Bird Sanctum was located at the north of the Saint Land, and the Black Turtle Sanctum was located at the south of the Saint Land.

As the saying went, ‘Azure Dragon in the West, White Tiger in the East, Vermilion Bird in the North, and the Black Turtle in the South’. These were the Four Symbols Sanctum of the Fire Worship Sect!

Duan Ling Tian decided to look for Zhu Lu Qi first because the Vermilion Bird Sanctum was closer to the Black Turtle Sanctum.

It would be closer if Duan Ling Tian could cut through the Saint Land to get to the Vermilion Bird Sanctum. However, the Fire Worship Sect was strict about not allowing people who were not Saint Land disciples to enter the Saint Land. Those who broke the rules would be severely punished. Due to this reason, Duan Ling Tian could only take the longer route to head to the White Tiger Sanctum.

The disciples from each Sanctum of the Fire Worship Sect’s Four Symbols Sanctums would pass by occasionally so Duan Ling Tian’s presence in the White Tiger Sanctum did not draw much attention.

As soon as he entered the White Tiger Sanctum, he discovered he was close to the White Tiger Sanctum. Naturally, he could not go to the altar.

The White Tiger Sanctum did not allow disciples from the three other Sanctums to approach the altar that had a gigantic white tiger statue since it contained the precious Divine Ability that only the disciples from the Sanctum were allowed to comprehend. It was a high-grade offensive Divine Ability!

If the disciples from the other three Sanctums dared to approach it, even if they did not intend to comprehend the Divine Ability, they would still be expelled from the Fire Worship Sect! If they somehow managed to comprehend it, they would be sentenced to death!

“It’s said that the central altar of each Sanctum has a formation that can discern the Divine Consciousness of disciples and non-disciples of the respective Sanctum to stop them from comprehending the high-grade Divine Ability!” Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself as he extended his Divine Consciousness.

Just as it got close to the central altar of the White Tiger Sanctum, it was instantly blocked and could not move any further.

“There’s really a Formation! Unless I go to the central altar of the White Tiger Sanctum, I won’t be able to use my Divine Consciousness to get close to it, let alone comprehending it!” Duan Ling Tian quickly withdrew his Divine Consciousness after he gave it a try.

After that, he saw a White Tiger Sanctum’s disciple walked out of the central altar and was making his way to him.

Duan Ling Tian instantly blocked his path before he asked politely, “Senior Brother, may I know where’s the residence for the disciples of White Tiger Sanctum? I need to look for my friend who’s a disciple of the White Tiger Sanctum.”

This White Tiger Sanctum’s disciple wore a long robe that was similar to the one Duan Ling Tian wore. It was also embroidered with a light grey flame. The only difference was the other party’s robe had a majestic-looking tiger on his robe while Duan Ling Tian’s robe had a gigantic turtle.

“The residence for the disciples of the is at the southern area of the Sanctum. Since you’re a Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciple, I’m sure you must have come from the Black Turtle Sanctum. This means you’ve passed the area earlier.” After the White Tiger Sanctum’s disciple pointed a finger to Duan Ling Tian’s back, he told Duan Ling Tian, “I’m heading there as well, why don’t you come with me?”

“Thank you, Senior Brother!” Duan Ling Tian quickly expressed his gratitude.

On their way, the White Tiger Sanctum’s disciple broke the silence and asked, “What’s your name, Junior Brother?”

“Duan Ling Tian,” Duan Ling Tian smiled as he responded before asking politely, “What’s your name, Senior Brother?”

“I’m Liu Mu.” After Liu Mu spoke, as though he was reminded of something, he muttered under his breath, “Duan Ling Tian… It seems like I’ve heard of this name before… Duan Ling Tian, Black Turtle Sanctum…”

Liu Mu suddenly turned to look at Duan Ling Tian and asked in shock, “You’re that rebel, Duan Ling Tian, from the Black Turtle Sanctum?”

“Rebel?” Duan Ling Tian was momentarily stunned before he asked, “Senior Brother Liu Mu, are you sure you’re talking about me?”

“How many Duan Ling Tians are there in your Black Turtle Sanctum?” Liu Mu asked again.

“I’ve just arrived in the Black Turtle Sanctum not too long ago so I don’t know many people in the Black Turtle Sanctum. For this reason, I don’t know if there’s anyone else with the name Duan Ling Tian.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head.

“You’ve just entered the Black Turtle Sanctum not long ago? As far as I know, that rebel Duan Ling Tian in the Black Turtle Sanctum has also just entered the Black Turtle Sanctum not long ago. He was admitted from the recent assessment!” Liu Mu’s eyes glinted as he stared at Duan Ling Tian intently.

“The recent assessment?” Duan Ling Tian finally figured it out. “Senior Brother Liu Mu, if that Duan Ling Tian you mentioned is admitted through the recent assessment, then I guess I’m the rebel you mentioned.”

“Are you really a rebel?” Liu Mu was baffled. “From what I heard, you’ve already offended the Black Turtle Sanctum’s First Silver Flame Elder Li An the moment you entered the Black Turtle Sanctum. Ten days ago, you’ve even killed a martial genius who possessed te blue Innate Spiritual Root who Li An planned to accept as a disciple! From what I heard, you killed that martial genius whose cultivation base had already entered the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage even though your cultivation base is only at the Early Exemplary Saint Stage!” Liu Mu said and looked at Duan Ling Tian.

“I’m just lucky.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head humbly. He was quite shocked. He did not expect his actions had even spread to the White Tiger Sanctum.

“You don’t have to be humble,” Liu Mu shook his head before saying, “Although you’re strong, what I admire about you is not your strength. I admire how you’re brave enough to offend Elder Li An as soon as you arrived in the Black Turtle Sanctum… Put aside the fact that my cultivation base is only at the Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage, even if my cultivation base is at the peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage or the Saint Celestial Stage, I still wouldn’t dare to offend Elder Li An from your Black Turtle Sanctum at all, let alone killing someone he planned to accept as his direct disciple! This is why I admire you so much!” When Liu Mu finished speaking, he even gave Duan Ling Tian a thumbs-up.

When Duan Ling Tian saw this, he was rendered speechless for a moment. Apart from that, he was also surprised by Liu Mu’s cultivation base.

He did not expect to meet a White Tiger Sanctum’s disciple who was at the Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage just by asking for direction.

“Senior Brother Liu Mu, as far as I know, the Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage disciples in the Four Symbols Sanctum can participate in the Saint Land assessment to become a Saint Land disciple. Why are you still in the White Tiger Sanctum?” Duan Ling Tian asked curiously.
