Chapter 2613 His Wish Is Fulfilled
‘A mere Heavenly Celestial who had just ascended to Spirit Overarching Heaven about half a month ago is only slightly weaker than me?’ Miao Lai Long, the Commander of the Silverwyrm Army, widened his eyes in surprise when he witnessed the power contained in Duan Ling Tian’s gigantic sword. He thought to himself, ‘So that’s why Kong Ping’s not his match. After all, he’s only slightly weaker than me!”
Initially, Miao Lai Long had intended to withhold some of his power at the critical juncture. However, at this moment, he realized there was no need to do so since this attack would not be able to kill Duan Ling Tian.
Although Miao Lai Long left the Silverwyrm Army’s camp in anger to search for Duan Ling Tian, he had no plans of killing Duan Ling Tian. He had planned to capture him back to the camp so his sister could vent her anger on Duan Ling Tian and also to obtain the extraordinary Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities that Duan Ling Tian had mastered.
‘Since he had only ascended half a month ago, he should now be an Orange Moon Heavenly Celestial at most. Based on that and the strength he displayed, there’s no doubt his Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities are some of the best in the Devata Realms,’ Miao Lai Long thought to himself. At the same time, his eyes were getting brighter and brighter, he could barely conceal the excitement he felt.
Bang!
At this moment, the long saber ray that shot out of Miao Lai Long’s Celestial Saber collided with Duan Ling Tian’s gigantic sword that was formed from his Sword Formation. When the two forces collided, it was silent for a moment before the sound of an explosion rang in the air!
The two forces clashed fiercely. In the beginning, it seemed as though the forces were equal in strength. However, as time passed, the force of Duan Ling Tian’s gigantic sword gradually weakened and fell into a disadvantageous position.
“You’re just a mere Heavenly Celestial who had ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven about half a month ago, and yet, you managed to make me unleash all my strength. You should feel proud even though you’re going to be defeated today!” Miao Lai Long said confidently. It was apparent he was confident he was going to win.
Duan Ling Tian who looked solemn suddenly laughed. “It’s undecided yet who’s going to win or lose!”
Upon seeing this, Miao Lai Long felt an ominous feeling rose in his heart. ‘Hmm? Is it possible that this brat still has another trick up his sleeve?’ Regardless, he said with a scoff, “You’re just putting on a front!”
“Didn’t your subordinates warn you not to use Celestial Weapons in front of me?” When Duan Ling Tian’s laughter subsided, it was replaced by a cold smile. At the same time, the gigantic sword suddenly emitted a profound and mysterious aura. The aura spread out and covered a large area in just a blink of an eye.
“Ten Thousand Soldiers Surrender!”
The aura, naturally, shrouded Miao Lai Long and the Celestial Saber in his hand as well. It did not take long before, the Celestial Saber struggled to free itself from his grip, causing a tear in the web between his thumb and index finger. As soon as it freed itself, it shot toward Duan Ling Tian’s gigantic sword that was formed from a Sword Formation and merged with it.
Miao Lai Long only regained his senses when his Celestial Saber had been taken away. He looked at his injured hand as an expression of shock and disbelief appeared on his face. In fact, it seemed as though he had seen a ghost. “H-how is it possible? W-what method is this?”
At this moment, he recalled that when Yang Kong Ping, his brother-in-law and a Captain of the Silverwyrm Army, reported the incident by the Celestial Ascension Pool half a month ago, Yang Kong Ping had told him about the newcomer mastering a method that could snatch others’ Celestial Weapons away. However, he had dismissed those words, thinking it was due to his subordinates’ weakness that their Celestial Weapons were taken away. However, it was clear now that Duan Ling Tian had, indeed, mastered a method that could snatch others’ Celestial Weapons away!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Initially, Miao Lai Long had the upper hand. However, since his Celestial Weapon had been taken away, he, naturally, lost much of his power. It did not take long before he was completely suppressed and fell into a disadvantageous position!
Bang!
The sound of an explosion rang in the air again as the gigantic sword flew out and crashed against the defensive technique Miao Lai Long had cast in a hurry. The power from the gigantic sword destroyed Miao Lai Long’s defense and sent him flying. He spat out a mouthful of blood before he finally managed to stabilize himself. At the same time, he felt a gust of wind blowing. “No!” His expression changed dramatically and fear coursed through his veins.
Whoosh!
Duan Ling Tian had appeared near Miao Lai Long like a ghost. He was surrounded by thousands of dazzling sword rays. At this moment, all the sword rays were pointed at Miao Lai Long. Although these sword rays were positioned all around Duan Ling Tian, they seemed mysteriously connected at the same time.
Miao Lai Long took a deep breath before he said in a low voice, “The City Governor will not let you go if you kill me!”
Duan Ling Tian glanced at Miao Lai Long. Although Miao Lai Long seemed unperturbed on the surface, he could see the fear in the depths of his eyes. He said bluntly, “Give me the yellow-grade cultivation method you mastered, and I’ll spare your life.” This was his main objective for coming here. He wanted to obtain the yellow-grade cultivation method that the City Governor had imparted to Miao Lai Long. If he mastered the cultivation method, his cultivation speed would increase and his assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Technique, would become stronger as well.
Miao Lai Long stared at Duan Ling Tian in surprise. He did not expect Duan Ling Tian wanted the cultivation method he had mastered. He refused without any hesitation. “That’s impossible!”
What a joke! When the City Governor of Bloody Specter City had imparted the cultivation method to him, the City Governor had specifically warned him against teaching it to another person. If he went against the City Governor’s warning, he would be punished with the death penalty! Moreover, this rule was set by those in the Nine Specters County. The City Governor was merely executing the order. He would definitely die if he broke that rule. How could he impart that cultivation method to another person? He did not even dare to teach it to his beloved sister.
Duan Ling Tian cocked an eyebrow and smiled coldly. “Impossible? Are you sure? If you don’t teach me the cultivation method today, you’ll definitely die!”
“I’ll die as well even if I teach it to you!” Miao Lai Long said in a low voice.
“Well, if I don’t tell, and you don’t tell, who would know? Do you really think I’m so stupid that I’ll tell another person about it? Wouldn’t I just get myself killed?” A threatening expression appeared on Duan Ling Tian’s face as he said indifferently, “I’ll give you ten breaths to consider. After the time’s up, if you’re unwilling or undecided, I’ll kill you!”
“If you kill me, you won’t be able to stay in Bloody Specter City or anywhere in the Nine Specters County!” Miao Lai Long said in a low voice, trying to remind Duan Ling Tian of the consequences he would face if he killed him.
“So what? I can just leave the Nine Specters County. I’ve just ascended. Anywhere can be my home, I have no worries.” Duan Ling Tian was not moved by Miao Lai Long’s words. Naturally, he knew the consequences of killing Miao Lai Long.
Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, Miao Lai Long felt his heart skip a beat, and his expression changed drastically. He did not think he would be defeated before he even had a chance to obtain the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities from Duan Ling Tian. Moreover, he was now forced to impart the cultivation method to Duan Ling Tian that might result in his death. Only a few breaths had passed before he finally gave in. “Fine, I’ll teach you.”
A bright smile appeared on Duan Ling Tian’s face immediately.
After Duan Ling Tian obtained the cultivation method from Miao Lai Long, he left without killing Miao Lai Long as promised. It was not difficult for him to kill Miao Lai Long, but the consequences that would ensue was not something he was willing to deal with for now. He was not afraid of the City Governor of Bloody Specter City since he was confident he would be able to kill the City Governor if he used the Devata Artifact, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, even if its current strength was only comparable to that of a top Celestial Weapon. However, he had to take into consideration the consequence that would come after he killed the City Governor. He might not be a match for the powerhouses from the Nine Specters County even if he wielded the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword. Therefore, he knew if he killed Miao Lai Long, he would no longer be able to stay in Bloody Specter City or the Nine Specters County, and he would probably have to hide. However, he could not hide no matter what. He had to cultivate at the best cultivation place here to increase his strength as fast as he possibly could.
