Chapter 3147: Duan Ling Tian and Heng Feng Battles Again
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Heng Feng already had a battle plan in mind before Duan Ling Tian arrived. Drawing from his previous mistakes and experience, he cast the law of earth’s Rock Style Profundity, Crystal Barrier Profundity, and Defense Profundity. After he cast the Crystal Barrier Profundity, what seemed like crystal armor appeared on his body. At the same time, his Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted by the Earth Elemental Profundity had reached its peak, and he could easily cast another three profundities from the law of earth at a moment’s notice. Apart from the three profundities he had just cast and the Earth Elemental Profundity, he had comprehended the Shake Profundity, the Gravitational Space Profundity, and the Recovery Profundity as well.
As Heng Feng looked at Duan Ling Tian who was standing across from him, he smiled wryly and said, “Duan Ling Tian, I didn’t expect I’d be so unlucky to run into you again three days after entering the middle realm… How long has it been since you entered the middle realm?”
“I just entered not too long ago. You and your partner are the first people I encountered after entering the middle realm,” Duan Ling Tian said with a shrug.
‘He just entered? And we’re the first people he ran into?’ Heng Feng’s heart sank upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words. Previously, Duan Ling Tian was the first person he encountered after entering the middle realm. Now, he was the first person Duan Ling Tian encountered after entering the middle realm. What sort of luck was this?
Duan Ling Tian did not seem to pay attention to Heng Feng who was ready to attack or defend. Instead, he asked, “Heng Feng, that young woman with an incredible speed is your Martial Battle Mansion’s Wan Qing Qing, right?” Since he clearly remembered the names of those who ranked in the top 30 last month, he knew that Wan Qing Qing had ranked 17th previously.
“You’re right.” Heng Feng nodded. Then, he scoffed before he said confidently, “However, you might as well give up if you intend to eliminate her. Her speed is comparable to the strongest Ten Directions Celestial Dukes in the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Only a few people can match her speed. It’s impossible for you to catch her.”
After witnessing Wan Qing Qing’s speed, Duan Ling Tian did not doubt Heng Feng’s words. If Wan Qing Qing wanted to escape, he had no way to catch up to her. He looked at Heng Feng as he asked, “If I’m not mistaken, she has already helped you to obtain points, but you’ve yet to return the favor, right? Don’t you feel guilty about not being able to return the favor?”
Duan Ling Tian’s words seemed to affect Heng Feng deeply. His expression was rather unsightly after he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. Indeed, he felt guilty. Without Wan Qing Qing’s help, he would not have been able to accumulate so many points in just a few short days. Alas, before he could return the favor, they ran into Duan Ling Tian. In the end, he scoffed before he said, “I’ll return the favor after I’m done with you!”
A faint smile appeared on Duan Ling Tian’s face as he narrowed his eyes. “It seems like she hasn’t left…” It was not difficult for him to figure out that Wan Qing Qing was lingering nearby. He had a hunch Wan Qing Qing would not really leave Heng Feng behind. Moreover, with her speed, as long as she was prepared, she could easily escape from him again. He would not have watched her leave without asking her to collaborate if she really left.
Heng Feng sneered. “What can you do even if you know she hasn’t left? Do you think you’ll be able to catch her?”
Duan Ling Tian did not answer Heng Feng’s question. Instead, he asked with a smile on his face, “Heng Feng, do you want to crush your Accumulative Point Jade or do you want me to help you?”
“Previously, you only managed to defeat me because I didn’t expect you to have comprehended the law of space’s Transportation Profundity as well. I have to say I’m not sure if you’ve comprehended the Transportation Profundity or if you’re still in the process of comprehending it. However, if you haven’t fully comprehended it, your attack won’t be able to breach my Defense Profundity and Crystal Barrier Profundity,” Heng Feng said in a lowered voice. He knew there was a huge difference between completely comprehending a profundity and only grasping the basics of a profundity. He had researched the Transportation Profundity a few days ago as well. After mulling over it, he thought there was a high chance that Duan Ling Tian only had a basic comprehension of the Transportation Profundity. If he was right, he would be able to defend himself against Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian was slightly startled by Heng Feng’s words. He said bluntly, “I didn’t expect you to be so astute. You’re right. I only have a basic comprehension of the Transportation Profundity. Since you cast the Defense Profundity to boost the Crystal Barrier Profundity, I really can’t breach your defenses…”
Heng Feng’s eyes flashed as the corners of his lips curled into a smile, “Well, at least you know that…” He looked into the distance before he boosted his voice with Celestial Origin Energy and called out, “Junior Sister Qing, you can come back now!”
Swoosh!
A green figure appeared in the distance almost immediately.
This was the first time Duan Ling Tian had a good look at Wan Qing Qing. She was rather pretty with her long black hair and curvaceous figure. In fact, her beauty was comparable to his two wives. When his eyes met hers, time seemed to stand still. He only recovered his senses when Heng Feng broke the silence.
“Junior Sister Qing, Duan Ling Tian’s unable to breach my defenses. Let’s eliminate him together!” Heng Feng said with a hint of excitement as he looked at Duan Ling Tian. This was his chance to redeem himself! Then, he added after a moment, “However, I’m not sure if he still has any trick up his sleeves. If he manages to breach my defenses, you must leave immediately. Whatever I owe you, I’ll definitely repay in the future.”
Wan Qing Qing nodded slightly in response.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian looked at Wan Qing Qing with a smile on his face and said, “Senior Sister Wan, if I’m unable to breach Heng Feng’s defense, you can join forces with him to eliminate me. However, if I’m able to breach his defenses, please don’t leave in a hurry. Why don’t we work together? I can guarantee that if both of us work together, you’ll make it into the top 10.”
Heng Feng and Wan Qing Qing were taken aback by Duan Ling Tian’s proposal to join forces.
Heng Feng scoffed. He said confidently, as though he could read Duan Ling Tian’s mind, “Duan Ling Tian, are you trying to trick my junior sister so you can eliminate her?”
“How many points has she accumulated? Do you think it’s worth it for me to eliminate her when I can work with her? If you were in my shoes, would you eliminate her?” Duan Ling Tian replied as he glanced at Heng Feng.
Heng Feng was rendered speechless by Duan Ling Tian’s words. Indeed, it was meaningless for Duan Ling Tian to eliminate Wan Qing Qing who only had one point at the moment.
At this moment, Wan Qing Qing said nonchalantly, “The three of us can work together.”
“He has no value to me as far as I’m concerned. Moreover, it’s not efficient to distribute the points three ways,” Duan Ling Tian replied.
Wan Qing Qing replied coldly, “I won’t join forces with you if you eliminate him.”
“Regardless if you join forces with me or not, I’m still going to eliminate him. Although you’d help me gain points faster, it’s not like I can’t do without you,” Duan Ling Tian said domineeringly. Despite his words, he admired Wan Qing Qing’s attitude. However, he was unwilling to compromise.
“You!” Wan Qing Qing was infuriated by Duan Ling Tian’s words. This was the first time she was treated in such a manner by a man.
Heng Feng snorted. “Duan Ling Tian, you’ll have to breach my defenses if you want to eliminate me. Otherwise, you’ll be the one who’s eliminated!” As soon as he finished speaking, he charged toward Duan Ling Tian like a rampaging bull. At the same time, he sent a Voice Transmission to Wan Qing Qing in an attempt to persuade her. “Junior Sister Qing, if Duan Ling Tian manages to eliminate me, you should join forces with him. Although I don’t know him well, I have a good eye when it comes to judging people. He’s not the type that will renege on his promise. Perhaps, with his help, you’ll be able to make it into the top 10 this time.”
“We’ll see if he’s capable of breaching your defense,” Wan Qing Qing replied.
Duan Ling Tian said flippantly with a smile on his face, “Since you’re confident about your defenses, I won’t use the Teleportation Profundity, and I’ll breach your defenses with just one strike!”
Heng Feng’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words. ‘He’s not going to use the Teleportation Profundity? Is it possible that he has comprehended another two profundities from the law of space?’ Previously, he had seen Duan Ling Tian cast seven profundities from the law of space, including the Transportation Profundity. Based on Duan Ling Tian’s confident words, he could not help thinking that Duan Ling Tian had comprehended another two profundities from the law of space. Alarmed, he quickly cast all the profundities he had comprehended from the law of earth. He was afraid that Duan Ling Tian would attack before he could even make his move. After all, the law of space was unpredictable. “Gravitational Space Profundity! Shake Profundity! Recovery Profundity!”
