Chapter 2201 The Strongest Person Below The Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage

Although Duan Ling Tian did not display all his strength since he returned to the Fire Worship Sect, his strength was widely acknowledged in the Fire Worship Sect when he defeated Leng Ying, the Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall, who was also made a Guardian, in the Fire Worship Sect. Although Leng Ying had only broken through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, with the help of the various Divine Abilities that he had mastered, he was not weak at all. Hong Yun, one of the Guardians of Fire Worship Sect, had admitted she was no match for him. Apart from that, even Zi Feng, the strongest among the three Guardians, was not confident he could defeat Leng Ying with three strikes! For this reason, Duan Ling Tian was widely regarded as the strongest among the five Guardians of Fire Worship Sect ever since he defeated Leng Ying with just three strikes. Zi Feng, the former leader of the three Guardians of Fire Worship Sect, did not dispute this fact as well.

It was also because of this Leng Ying could not help but laugh when he heard the words of the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect. He wondered where the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect had gotten his courage from!

“You’re the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect?” Duan Ling Tian shifted his attention to the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect and said with a mocking expression, “Based on your words, it seems like you’re certain of your victory because our sect leader isn’t here…”

“Ridiculous!” Before the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect could reply, Hong Yun smirked coldly as she said, “Although our sect leader isn’t here, don’t forget the Supreme Elder of your Black Kshetra Sect isn’t here as well!”

Although Zi Feng, Qing Huo, and Leng Ying did not speak, they were looking at the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect with a mocking gaze.

The instant Hong Yun finished speaking, the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect threw his head back and laughed loudly. His sudden and wanton laughter caused Duan Ling Tian and the others to frown.

Was the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect crazy?

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect was still laughing when the sound of wind whistling in the air could be heard. Soon after, the high-ranking officials from the Fire Worship Sect appeared one after another. The high-ranking officials were Golden Flame Elders and Vice Hall Masters of the Fire Worship Sect. This included Lu Tie, the Sanctum Leader of Azure Dragon Sanctum, and Lu Qing, the Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum.

The elders and disciples of Fire Worship Sect did not come since they knew they would be no help even if they had come. They would only serve as cannon fodder.

Although Lu Tie, Lu Qing, and the others had come, they only stood in the distance, waiting for a chance to strike. If they had recklessly charged forward, they would only be killed.

“What’s happening?”

“Why is the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect laughing? Don’t tell me something has happened to Lord Sect Leader?”

“I don’t think so! If something happened to Lord Sect Leader, Lang Qian Jin, the Supreme Elder of Black Kshetra Sect, would be here.”

“Since Lord Sect Leader and Lang Qian Jin aren’t here, this must mean Lord Sect Leader has lured Lang Qian Jin away …”

“You’re right. After all, if powerhouses at their level fight near the Fire Worship Sect, the outer disciples from the Four Symbols Sanctums would be doomed!”

The group of Golden Flame Elders and Vice Hall Masters of the Enforcement Hall from the Fire Worship Sect discussed among themselves. All of them could faintly guess why Tang Xuan and Lang Qian Jin were nowhere to be seen.

The strength of powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage is too horrifying! When Lord Sect Leader and Lang Qian Jin fought for a short while earlier, just the shockwave from their fight killed many disciples from the White Tiger Sanctum!” Lu Qing, the Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum, said with a grim expression on his face. He felt aggrieved. Due to the position of the White Tiger Sanctum, many disciples from the White Tiger Sanctum were killed by the shockwave from the fight between two powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Moreover, he was also humiliated and tortured by Duan Ling Tian for this reason. Since the White Tiger Sanctum was located at the east of the Fire Worship Sect’s estate, it was close to the central region. Duan Ling Tian needed to cross the White Tiger Sanctum when he returned from the central region to enter the Fire Worship Sect. Since the people from the Black Kshetra Sect came to the central region from the western region, it was only natural that the fight occurred near the White Tiger Sanctum. For this reason, Lu Qing wished he could switch the location of the White Tiger Sanctum with one of the other Four Symbols Sanctums.

“Huh?” All of a sudden, the group of Golden Flame Elders and the Vice Hall Masters of the Enforcement Hall from the Fire Worship Sect received a Voice Transmission from one of the Vice Sect Leaders of Fire Worship Sect, informing them of what had happened thus far.

“As expected, Lord Sect Leader has lured Lang Qian Jin, the Supreme Elder of Black Kshetra Sect, away!” Many high- ranking officials’ eyes lit up immediately when they heard the Voice Transmission.

The Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect says he can’t guarantee the safety of the four Guardians if they decide to intervene in the matter between their sect and Guardian Ling Tian?”

“Why is he so certain of his victory against the five Guardians when there’s so few of them here?”

“What a joke! Even if we don’t take Guardian Zi Feng who’s at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage into consideration, we still have Guardian Ling Tian whose strength is not inferior to Guardian Zi Feng! Where does he get his confidence from?”

“Being overly confident is no different from being arrogant. The Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect holds such a high position. To think he’s so blindly conceited… How pathetic!”

The high-ranking officials from the Fire Worship Sect could not help but sneer when they learned about what happened and saw the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect laughing.

Soon after, the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect finally stopped laughing.

“Four great Guardians, I’ll give all of you one last chance! Hand over Duan Ling Tian now. If you can’t bring yourself to physically hand him over to us, you can turn around and bring the people here back to your sect. You can leave Duan Ling Tian to us. If you refuse, all of you will meet your maker today!” The Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect said resolutely as his eyes turned cold, “I’ll give you a span often breaths. After that, don’t blame my Black Kshetra Sect for not showing any mercy if you don’t come to a decision!” His words were filled with threats.

As soon as the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect finished speaking, Zi Feng, the former leader of the three Guardians of Fire Worship Sect, scoffed with an icy expression on his handsome face. “Even if you give us more time, we’ll never turn our backs on Guardian Ling Tian!” Zi Feng said coldly.

“If you want to fight, let’s fight! There are no cowards in the Fire Worship Sect!” Leng Ying who was standing near Zi Feng said in support of Zi Feng’s words.

Although Qing Huo and Hong Ying did not speak, it could be seen that they agreed with Zi Feng about not turning their backs on Duan Ling Tian as they instinctively moved closer to Zi Feng!

The Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect had already clearly expressed that the Fire Worship Sect would not turn its back on Duan Ling Tian! Moreover, for Duan Ling Tian’s sake, he did not hold back at all when he fought with the Supreme Elder of Black Kshetra Sect! Even if they were in a disadvantageous position, they would never betray the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect. They would protect Duan Ling Tian as he had wished. Moreover, they were not even in a disadvantageous position now.

“If you want to fight, let’s fight!”

“There are no cowards in the Fire Worship Sect!”

Leng Ying’s domineering and forceful words entered the ears of the high-ranking officials of the Fire Worship Sect, causing their blood to boil immediately.

“Guardian Leng Ying is right! There are no cowards in our Fire Worship Sect!”

“Does the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect really think he can win with just so few of them?”

“Ridiculous! Ridiculous!”

A few of the high-ranking officials from the Fire Worship Sect openly mocked the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect.

The expression of the Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect darkened when he heard the four Guardians’ decision. A jade token appeared in his hand as he muttered to himself furiously, “Good! Good! Very good!”

Crack!

The Sect Leader of Black Kshetra Sect broke the jade token. At that instant, light shot up into the sky like a flare gun. It was as though he was sending someone a signal.

“They have more people on their side?” The light that shot up to the sky caused the people from Fire Worship Sect to frown.

Duan LingTian narrowed his eyes as well before he suddenly shouted, “Something’s coming!” He raised his head to look at the sky in the east.

There was nothing to be seen in the sky at all. The clouds floated peacefully in the sky with no sign that anything was wrong. However, in less than the span of one breath, Zi Feng suddenly raised his head as well and looked in the direction where Duan Ling Tian was looking as though he had also noticed something.

Whoosh!

At this moment, the sound of wind whistling in the air sounded from behind the clouds. Instantly, everyone from the Fire Worship Sect instinctively turned to look in that direction.

Suddenly, the clouds in the distance began to move before a ghost-like figure emerged at a ridiculously fast speed.

The high-ranking officials from the Fire Worship Sect who were standing in the distance could not see the figure.

The two Vice Sect Leaders of the Fire Worship Sect were at the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, the Heavenly Soul Form, could vaguely see the figure. They could only see the figure was extremely thin, but they could not see his face at all.

“A powerhouse at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage?”

“It seems as though he’s not an ordinary powerhouse at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!”

The expressions of Zi Feng, Qing Huo, Hong Yun, and Leng Ying changed slightly. A hint of dread filled their eyes when they discovered the incoming figure was no ordinary person.

“More backup?” Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes and looked at the incomer.

Whoosh!

It did not take long before the incomer revealed himself.

A horrified expression appeared on Zi Feng’s face when he saw the appearance of the incomer. “Hao Shuang!”

Hao Shuang was a powerhouse who was ranked fifth on the Supreme Saint Ranking. He was also widely acknowledged as the strongest person below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in the Dao Martial Saint Land!
