Chapter 4492: Joining the Duan Clan

Duan Ling Tian and Tan Xiu Teng quickly followed Duan Tian Hong to the Duan clan’s main estate outside of Tourmaline Holy City.

During the journey, Duan Ling Tian gave an introduction of Tourmaline Holy City and the various businesses of the Duan clan in the city to Duan Ling Tian. He was very straightforward and told Duan Ling Tian that after becoming a Revered Elder of the Duan clan, he would receive huge discounts at the stores owned by the Duan clan in Tourmaline Holy City if he showed his identity token.

Duan Tian Hong also asked about Duan Ling Tian’s origin, and he grew even more excited when he heard that Duan Ling Tian was from the Myriad Worlds.

Those from the Myriad Worlds were without roots and fetters in the Outer Boundary and were like a blank slate. This meant that they were without attachments that could be distracting. Moreover, they likely left the Myriad Worlds to gain a foothold in the Outer Boundary. This meant that they were generally more stable and focused. As such, many forces in the Outer Boundary preferred to recruit such people.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian had a better understanding of the Duan clan after listening to Duan Tian Hong. He learned that there were more than a dozen supreme powerhouses under the realm of demi Saints in the Duan clan. Among them, there were a few who were close to becoming demi Saints. The Clan Leader of the Duan clan, a powerful supreme powerhouse, belonged to this small group of people.

‘Demi Saints, known as imminent Saints in the Myriad Worlds, are level-five supreme powerhouses?’

Through Duan Tian Hong, Duan Ling Tian also learned for the first time that supreme powerhouses were divided into levels according to their strength. The higher the number, the stronger they were. He knew that there were differences in strengths between supreme powerhouses, but he was unaware that they were divided into levels like that.

Duan Ling Tian did not show his surprise and continued to silently listen to Duan Tian Hong.

“My strength is only average among the supreme powerhouses in the Duan clan. I’m just a level-two supreme powerhouse. The clan leader is a level-three supreme powerhouse, similar to the Head Elder of the Enforcement Hall…” They continued to chat until they arrived outside of the Duan clan’s main estate.

A complicated maze surrounded the outside of the Duan clan’s main estate. It was not difficult for Duan Ling Tian to guess that it was to prevent outsiders from wandering close to the estate. Although the Duan clan was powerful and not afraid of outsiders, it was annoying having curious people wander close and disturb the clan.

It was easy for powerhouses to find the Duan clan’s estate through the maze, but it would be a difficult task for others. Even Duan Ling Tian could not navigate the maze easily.

“Elder Tian Hong!”

After Duan Tian Hong led Duan Ling Tian and Tan Xiu Teng into the estate, many people greeted Duan Tian Hong respectfully when they saw him.

Among these people, many young people looked at Duan Ling Tian and Tan Xiu Teng curiously. Naturally, they did not dare to gossip out loud and only spoke through Voice Transmission.

“Who are these two people? Elder Tian Hong treats them rather politely…”

“Isn’t Elder Tian Hong’s turn to be in charge of our clan’s side estate in Tourmaline Holy City recently? Those two are probably here to join our clan then. The fact he personally led them here shows that they must be quite powerful…”

“Based on their appearance, they really don’t look too powerful. However, since Elder Tian Hong personally brought them here and treated them politely, there’s no doubt that they’re at least close to the realm of peerless top advanced Supreme Gods…”

“There were quite a few people close to the realm of peerless top advanced Supreme Gods who joined our Duan clan in the past. However, I don’t think

Elder Tian Hong gave them such treatment…’

“Are they supreme powerhouses? No, it’s more likely that only one of them is a supreme powerhouse if my speculation is right.”

Meanwhile, Duan Tian Hong, the Second Elder of the Duan clan’s Enforcement Hall, led Duan Ling Tian and Tan Xiu Teng to the reception hall to meet Duan Bing, the Clan Leader of the Duan clan.

Duan Bing had long been notified of Duan Ling Tian’s arrival and was already waiting in the reception hall when they arrived.

Duan Tian stopped outside of the reception hall and said respectfully, “Greetings, Clan Leader. I’ve brought him here.”

A loud voice rang from inside the hall.

“Come in.”

Duan Tian Hong smiled and gestured to Duan Ling Tian to follow him while Tan Xiu Teng followed behind the duo.

Duan Ling Tian saw Duan Bing as soon as he walked into the reception hall. He had also heard of Duan Bing’s name earlier from Duan Tian Hong. He cupped his fists together at Duan Bing and greeted, “Greetings, Clan Leader Duan.” Tan Xiu Teng quickly followed suit and greeted Duan Bing as well.

Duan Bing looked at Duan Ling Tian with a bright smile on his face as he said, “You’re Duan Ling Tian, right? Elder Tian Hong sent me a message earlier. He told me you’re close to the realm of peerless top advanced Supreme Gods, and you’ve comprehended the Sword Dao to the sixth stage.”

After a brief pause, Duan Bing continued to say, “I don’t doubt Elder Tian Hong’s words, but this is my first time meeting someone below the realm of supreme powerhouses who has comprehended the Sword Dao to the sixth stage. I wonder if you’re willing to show me your Sword Dao?”

Although Duan Bing’s tone seemed like he was asking Duan Ling Tian, a powerful and majestic energy surged and swept out in the reception hall as soon as he finished speaking.

In any case, Duan Ling Tian did not have any intention to refuse Duan Bing. He knew he had to show his strength in order to increase his value. He joined the Duan clan with a purpose, and it would only benefit him to show his strength instead of waiting and bidding his time.

Duan Ling Tian’s Divine Energy and his law of space, which had reached the perfect form, surged out immediately before he displayed his Sword Dao.

Swoosh!

An astonishingly powerful sword ray shot out, looking as though it could cut through heaven and earth. However, before it could do any damage to the reception hall, it was stopped by Duan Bing.

Duan Bing was delighted.. He could barely contain his excitement as he looked at Duan Ling Tian and said, “It’s really in the sixth stage! Moreover, it seems like your Sword Dao has been in the sixth stage for a while now! I heard you’re from the Myriad Worlds? It seems like our Duan clan has found a gem this time!”
