War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 3352: The Greater the Risk, The Greater the Rewards

“Leave?”

Little Gold and Huan’er were confused and surprised when they heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. However, Huan’er did not question his words and supported his decisions as always.

On the contrary, Little Gold could not help but ask, “Why do you want to leave suddenly?”

Even the Five Divine Elements assumed Duan Ling Tian planned to leave because he did not want to take the risks in the Purgatory Battlefield. All of them respected his decision and did not object to it. After all, they would be risking their lives as well. There was a possibility they might perish if they encountered Divine Elements with higher forms than them.

Duan Ling Tian looked at Little Gold and shook his head as he said with a smile, “I don’t want to become the fool who uses his real name in the Purgatory Battlefield.”

When Little Gold recovered from the shock, her eyes brightened immediately. “Brother Ling Tian, does this… does this mean you possess the Divine Elements?”

Duan Ling Tian nodded slightly.

“Brother Ling Tian, you should’ve told me about this. Then, I would’ve told you about what I know before we enter the Purgatory Battlefield,” Little Gold said with a wry smile on her face.

“So how do we leave?” Duan Ling Tian asked.

“We’ll need to find the transportation site. Just think of it, and we’ll be led to it. It’s far more complicated to leave to prevent people from escaping when they encounter a stronger opponent,” Little Gold replied.

Duan Ling Tian thought about the transportation site as Little Gold instructed before he felt a force guiding him toward a certain direction.

“There it is!” Little Gold pointed in the direction where Duan Ling Tian felt the force was guiding him.

Following that, the trio made their way to the transportation site.

Up until now, Duan Ling Tian had yet to have a good look at the Purgatory Battlefield due to the thick fog shrouding the place. The atmosphere was gloomy and oppressive, making him eager to leave this area as soon as possible.

About half an hour later, the trio finally arrived at the transportation site. A stone platform similar to the ones they saw outside hovered in the air.

“Let’s leave.”

As soon as the trio stood on the platform, their names appeared in the air.

Duan Ling Tian.

Huan’er.

Little Gold.

“Our names will be erased since we only have one point… It’d be difficult if we’ve accumulated more than two points. If we want to remove our names, we can only enter again after 100 years have passed,” Little Gold said.

“Fortunately, you told me about this earlier,” Duan Ling Tian said with a nod.

In just a few moments, the trio was transported out. They arrived in the sky above a wasteland in the Jade Emperor Heaven; it was different from the place they had entered earlier.

As soon as the trio appeared, they caught the attention of two Celestial Emperors who were battling near the transportation site in the Jade Emperor Heaven. They were two middle-aged men who somewhat resembled each other. Their eyes were filled with unconcealable lust as soon as they saw Huan’er.

“Let’s go,” Duan Ling Tian said after he briefly glanced at the two middle-aged men. Following that, he mobilized his energy to bring Huan’er and Little Gold away.

Upon sensing the energy from Duan Ling Tian, whom they assumed was the leader of the group, one of them exclaimed, “A Celestial Lord?”

The middle-aged man who was dressed in an azure robe said with a smile, “Elder brother, it’s my turn to choose first, right? You can choose the golden-clad young woman; I want the white-clad woman!”

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man who was dressed in green robes scoffed. “In your dreams! I want the woman in white! You can have the young woman in gold! If you’re not willing, you can fight me for it.”

The azure-clad middle-aged man smiled sheepishly before he asked, “After you’re done with her, why don’t you let me have her?”

“We’ll talk about this when the time comes,” the green-clad middle-aged man replied noncommittally.

“Alright. We should kill that young man first. He’s such an eyesore,” the azure-clad middle-aged man said with a chuckle. Then, he shot out, transforming into a ball of flames, toward Duan Ling Tian.

At the same time, killing intent shone in Duan Ling Tian’s eyes when he heard the two middle-aged men’s conversation and his expression darkened immediately. He did not hesitate to borrow the Five Divine Elements’ powers. Following that, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword that he had brought out turned into a seven-color sword ray before he merged himself and the spatial energy from the law of space with the sword ray.

“How dare a puny Celestial Lord like you attack me?” The azure-clad middle-aged man scoffed when he saw Duan Ling Tian making a move. However, as Duan Ling Tian drew closer, his eyes widened in horror. “No, no, how’s this possible!?”

As soon as the seven-color sword ray collided with the ball of flames, Little Gold saw the sword ray easily pierced the ball of flames, killing the azure-clad middle-aged man. The sword ray did not stop and its momentum did not lessen as it continued to shoot toward the green-clad middle-aged man.

“No!” The green-clad middle-aged man who had just witnessed the death of his brother did not even have time to react, let alone figure out how a Celestial Lord managed to kill a Celestial Emperor, when the sword ray was just barely inches away from him. He hastily pulled his Celestial Weapon out to defend against the sword ray. Alas, although he was slightly stronger than his brother, resistance was futile. The sword ray easily breached his defenses.

“This… How’s this possible!?” Before his death, the green-clad middle-aged man sensed the auras of the Five Divine Elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. It was beyond his understanding how someone managed to possess all Five Divine Elements.

After the green-clad middle-aged man died, the seven-color energy sword returned to Duan Ling Tian before vanishing into thin air.

Little Gold stared at Duan Ling Tian with her mouth agape; her eyes were brimming with admiration and awe. “Brother… B-brother Ling Tian, you possess all Five Divine Elements?”

Since Duan Ling Tian did not bother to conceal the auras of the Five Divine Elements from Little Gold and she was standing next to him, she could clearly sense the auras of all the Divine Elements along with the energy from the law of space.

Duan Ling Tian nodded slightly in response.

“T-this… T-this… This is unbelievable!” Little Gold looked at Duan Ling Tian incredulously. She did not even think it was possible for someone to possess all of the Five Divine Elements until today. When she calmed down slightly, she asked curiously, “Brother Ling Tian, how did you obtain them?”

Duan Ling Tian smiled before he said, “Let’s make our way to the transportation site as we speak…”

At this time, Little Gold finally noticed Huan’er who was holding onto Duan Ling Tian’s arms looked calm. She asked, slightly surprised, “Huan’er, you know about this?”

Huan’er smiled and nodded slightly. Since Duan Ling Tian treated Little Gold as his younger sister, she naturally treated Little Gold like her younger sister as well even though Little Gold was, in fact, a few years older than her.

During their journey to the transportation site, Duan Ling Tian answered all of Little Gold’s questions. He did not bother hiding anything from her since he trusted her not to betray him.

After listening to Duan Ling Tian’s words, Little Gold said, “Brother Ling Tian, you’re really lucky! All the sixth-form Five Divine Elements are willing to stay with you!” Soon after, a slight frown appeared on her face before she added, clearly worried about Duan Ling Tian, “However, this means it’d be very dangerous for you to enter the Purgatory Battlefield… Normal people might not discover the Five Divine Elements, but those who possess them can easily detect them.”

“I know.” Duan Ling Tian nodded with a gentle smile on his face. “Don’t worry about me. You should worry about those who possess any of the Five Divine Elements. After all, it goes both ways, right? Moreover, I can’t be so unlucky as to meet an eighth-form Divine Element as soon as I enter the Purgatory Battlefield, right?”

Soon after, the trio arrived at a transportation site to the Purgatory Battlefield.
