Chapter 2652 - Going All Out

Chapter 2652 Going All Out

About two years ago, Zhou Tong had received news about a profound-grade cultivation technique. For this reason, he had secretly left the County Governor’s estate. Naturally, he had acted in secrecy due to his selfishness. He did not want to have to share the profound-grade cultivation technique with the County Governor of Nine Specters County. This was the same time Duan Ling Tian had arrived in the County Governor’s estate and severed Zhou Fei’s limbs in the Latent Dragon Abyss.

“Well, you can refuse to reveal your Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities, but don’t regret it later.” Zhou Tong sneered. “I have hundreds and thousands of ways to torture it out of you. At that time, you’d fervently wish for death. I wonder if your will is stronger than the pain I’ll inflict on you?”

Whoosh!

As soon as Zhou Tong finished speaking, a vast and terrifying Celestial Origin Energy surged out of his body. They looked like flames licking the air, making him look like the god of fire at this moment. His Celestial Origin Energy that was at the level of a Great Overarching Golden Celestial seemed to make the air heavy.

Qin Yu and Zhou Fei whose cultivation bases were the weakest among the four of them became slightly breathless as their faces flushed red due to being overwhelmed by Zhou Tong’s Celestial Origin Energy.

On the contrary, Duan Ling Tian remained unaffected from the beginning until now.

Zhou Tong cocked an eyebrow as he looked at Duan Ling Tian and said patronizingly, “A mere Heavenly Celestial who’s unaffected by my Celestial Origin Energy! Duan Ling Tian, you should feel proud of yourself.” He spoke as though he was a high and mighty god looking down at Duan Ling Tian who was like a bug he could crush at any time.

Nevertheless, Duan Ling Tian ignored Zhou Tong. He turned to Qin Yu and said, “Qin Yu, Zhou Tong and Zhou Fei came for me. You should leave first.”

Qin Yu knew Duan Ling Tian had said those words for his own good. However, he could not abandon Duan Ling Tian to such powerful enemies. It was not in his character to do something like that. “Duan Ling Tian, we left the city together, and we’ll return to the city together!”

When Qin Yu finished speaking, Duan Ling Tian furrowed his brows while Zhou Tong scoffed loudly before he said, “None of you will be leaving here today!”

Zhou Tong was not stupid. If he had come to kill Duan Ling Tian, he would not care about Qin Yu’s life or death. After all, even if Qin Yu tattled to the County Governor, the County Governor would not settle scores with him over a dead person. He was the only Great Overarching Golden Celestial in Nine Specters County, apart from the County Governor. Duan Ling Tian might be as valuable as him alive, but a dead Duan Ling Tian was worthless! Nevertheless, he did not plan to kill Duan Ling Tian before he obtained the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. For this reason, he could not let Qin Yu leave and seek help from the County Governor. If the County Governor learned about Duan Ling Tian’s extraordinary Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities, the County Governor would surely intervene. At that time, none of the outcomes would be favorable to him.

“Fine, you can stay, but watch out for yourself,” Duan Ling Tian said before he glanced at Zhou Fei who was standing behind Zhou Tong.

At this moment, Zhou Fei was staring intently at Qin Yu.

Zhou Tong’s eyes did not leave Duan Ling Tian at all as he ordered, “Fei’er, kill Qin Yu while I deal with Duan Ling Tian!” At this moment, it seemed like all he could see was Duan Ling Tian.

“Yes, godfather!” Zhou Fei replied and instantly moved toward Qin Yu.

“Be careful!” Duan Ling Tian’s expression darkened. His Celestial Origin Energy stirred, clearly intending to help Qin Yu. Since Qin Yu had not taken over Zhou Fei’s stone chamber in the Latent Dragon Abyss, Qin Yu was probably still weaker than Zhou Fei. For this reason, he could not help but worry about Qin Yu’s safety.

“You should look out for yourself!” At this moment, Zhou Tong blocked Duan Ling Tian with his Celestial Origin Energy that was raging like a fire.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

At the same time, a series of explosions rang in the air. Qin Yu and Zhou Fei had begun to fight.

When Duan Ling Tian looked over, he discovered that, indeed, Zhou Fei was stronger than Qin Yu, but the difference in their strength was rather insignificant. ‘Based on the situation, it’s unlikely that Zhou Fei would be able to defeat Qin Yu in less than 100 moves…’ He felt his worries easing, and he shifted his attention back to Zhou Tong who had appeared before him.

Before Duan Ling Tian came to the County City of Nine Specters County, when he was still in Bloody Specter City that was located far away, Liu Feng Gu had told him about Zhou Tong and the feud between them. In exchange for a better cultivation environment and resources, he promised to capture Zhou Tong and bring him back to Liu Feng Gu in Bloody Specter City after he had grown strong enough to do so. On top of that, Liu Feng Gu had also promised to disclose the location of a Celestial Fire after he killed Zhou Tong to avenge his direct disciple.

When Duan Ling Tian recalled his deal with Liu Feng Gu, his eyes shone as brightly as the stars in the night sky when he looked at Zhou Tong.

Zhou Tong stared at Duan Ling Tian icily and said in a deep voice, “Duan Ling Tian, if you surrender, you won’t have to suffer much. If you resist, I’ll make sure to torture you until being dead is preferable to staying alive!” He was certain he could kill Duan Ling Tian with just a strike. However, since he did not plan to kill Duan Ling Tian, it would require a little more finesse on his part to capture Duan Ling Tian alive. However, he did not think it would be tough. After all, he was a Great Overarching Golden Celestial, how difficult would it be for him to capture a Heavenly Celestial alive?

Duan Ling Tian scoffed. “A Great Overarching Golden Celestial who likes spewing bullsh*t… You’re an embarrassment to Great Overarching Golden Celestials everywhere!” At the same time, he cast his assist-type Divine Ability to raise his Celestial Origin Energy by four stages. “Elementary Devouring Tactic!”

When Duan Ling Tian was still a Heavenly Celestial, the Elementary Devouring Tactic would only raise his Celestial Origin Energy by three stages. Now that he became a Golden Celestial, it would raise his Celestial Origin Energy by four stages. The assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, was a heaven-grade Divine Ability after all. Contrary to what everyone thought, it was also the only heaven-grade Divine Ability he had mastered.

‘What a powerful assist-type Divine Ability… I can feel his Celestial Origin Energy rising several stages in just a blink of an eye.’ As a Great Overarching Golden Celestial, Zhou Tong could acutely sense the changes in Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Origin Energy. With this, he was certain it was a heaven-grade assist-type Divine Ability! Divine Abilities at or below the earth-grade were not capable of something like that.

“It seems like you intend on resisting. I’ll teach you an unforgettable lesson today and give you a taste of the torture you’ll be facing!” Zhou Tong was, naturally, furious when he saw Duan Ling Tian intending on putting up a resistance. His Celestial Origin Energy surged like flames in the air!

Boom!

An earth-shattering explosion rang in the air as Zhou Tong moved. He looked like a ball of flames as he shot toward Duan Ling Tian. He seemed to leave the air boiling in his wake!

“Sword formation! Thirteen Green Lotus Swords!” Duan Ling Tian did not dare to let down his guard in front of a Great Overarching Golden Celestial. With a wave of his hand, he retrieved the primitive Celestial Sword he had obtained previously and unleashed his skills. He was going all out!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sword formation that was formed by sword rays shone dazzlingly. It emitted a terrifying energy as it collided with Zhou Tong.

“Impossible!” When Duan Ling Tian unleashed all his skills and took out his primitive Celestial Weapon, Zhou Tong could tell Duan Ling Tian was more powerful than all the peak Golden Celestials he had met. Even the peak Golden Celestials in the County Governor’s estate who was widely acknowledged as the strongest person below Great Overarching Golden Celestials was not as strong as Duan Ling Tian.

Although Duan Ling Tian’s attack posed no threat to Zhou Tong, it was not easy for him to repel the attack with his lack of preparation. “It seems like I’ve underestimated you!”
