War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 2344 Battle!

The successor of the Fog Rain Progeny, the First Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect, was so rare that only one would come by once every 10,000 years! Only when the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny had appeared would the Seven Absolutes Sect appear as well. After all, all the successors of the Fog Rain Progeny were also the Sect Leaders of the Seven Absolute Sect. What was a sect without a sect leader? For this reason, when the other members from the Seven Absolutes Sect appeared one after another, the people from the Dao Martial Saint Land knew the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny must have appeared as well even though they had not seen or heard about him.

Everyone was curious about the identity of the new successor of the Fog Rain Progeny. Who knew today was the day the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny would appear? Moreover, they even found out that the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny was Duan Ling Tian, the Guardian of the Fire Worship Sect!

The entire place was as silent as a mausoleum at this moment. Since it was quiet, when a bystander spoke up, everyone heard his words.

“He says he’s a Fourth Tribulation Bodiless Celestial who’s much stronger than a Third Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, and a Three Tribulation Bodiless Celestial is apparently much stronger than an Eminent Celestial… I wonder if he’s lying!”

As soon as the bystander finished speaking, Chen Yi Ru who was about to attack Duan Ling Tian suddenly paused in his tracks and scoffed.

Soon after, the sound of something being pierced could be heard.

Thud!

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the bystander who had just spoken fell to the ground heavily. His eyes were still open as though he was unaware he had died at the moment of his death. A hideous wound could be seen on his glabella. Fresh blood continued to spurt out his wound. The crowd felt a shiver running up their spines when they saw this. Fear filled their eyes when they looked at Chen Yi Ru again. The man had only spoken casually without any harm, but he was instantly killed. Moreover, all of them did not see when or how Chen Yi Ru had killed that man.

Duan Ling Tian was, naturally, the only one who clearly saw how Chen Yi Ru killed that man. ‘Indeed. That’s the strength of a Fourth Tribulation Bodiless Celestial! Just the attack that he had shot out from his eyes is comparable to the strength of an Eminent Celestial!”

With the dead man serving as an example, even if there were people who were skeptical of Chen Yi Ru’s strength, no one dared to speak up. After all, when Chen Yi Ru killed that man, they did not sense any power from him. For this reason, they remained largely skeptical of his strength. Most of them communicated through Voice Transmissions when they discussed this among themselves.

“Well, we’ll find out soon enough if he’s as strong as he says he is.”

“The battle between Duan Ling Tian, the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny, and him will start soon!”

“Fight! Just fight! Let us witness how strong Duan Ling Tian is now that he has become an Eminent Celestial!”

Everyone’s eyes were trained on Duan Ling Tian and Chen Yi Ru. One was the former Guardian of Fire Worship Sect, the current successor of the Fog Rain Progeny, and the leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect. The other one claimed he was a Fourth Tribulation Bodiless Celestial whose strength supposedly surpassed that of an Eminent Celestial. Was the latter only boasting? The answer would be clear once they began to battle.

Chen Yi Ru turned back to look at Duan Ling Tian as his robes fluttered in the air. He said coldly, “From today onward, Duan Ling Tian will cease to exist in this mundane realm!” A terrifying energy rolled out from his body, causing the void to distort and ripple.

“Shameless bragging!” Duan Ling Tian smirked. Meanwhile, the Celestial Origin Energy in his body that had been raised by the Elementary Devouring Tactic circulated through his 99 Saint Veins before surging out of his body like a ferocious dragon. It caused the ground to quake and the void to distort and ripple as well. If he did not hold back, his Celestial Origin Energy that fused with his Saint Origin would have torn holes in the void.

“You’ll find out for yourself if I’m boasting or not!” Chen Yi Ru sneered. The moment he lifted his hands, the energy that rolled out of his body began to roil like the surging waves of the sea. He looked invincible at this moment like a divine being. He cried out, “Today, I, Chen Yi Ru, will kill Duan Ling Tian, the Sect Leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect!” He moved his hand and the energy that was roiling around him converged and formed a giant saber that radiated a terrifying aura. It seemed like a sleeping beast who was about to wake up.

When one’s cultivation base was at Chen Yi Ru’s level, all weapons, including the Super Saint Weapons on the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking, would be rendered useless. Moreover, these weapons might be a burden instead.

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes flashed coldly as he sneered. “How dare you, a mere Fourth Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, boast before me! Today, I’ll show you how I defeat you in 10 strikes even though I’m just an Eminent Celestial!” As soon as he finished speaking, the energy that surged out of his body transformed into millions of white sword rays that hovered around him. At this moment, he looked like he was standing in a shower of swords. These swords were all under his control, moving deftly like a dragon.

Whoosh!

A gust of wind rustled the purple robes that Duan Ling Tian wore. He stood with his hands on his back. He looked contemptuously at Chen Yi Ru who was wielding a giant saber. It was clear that he did not take Chen Yi Ru seriously at all.

Previously, when Duan Ling Tian was still in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, he had learned about Bodiless Celestials and their strength. He discovered that his current strength was comparable to a Five or Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestial when he unleashed all his strength. Since that was the case, why would he be afraid of a mere Fourth Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?

Chen Yi Ru was, naturally, unaware of this. Otherwise, he would not have dared to boast in front of Duan Ling Tian. He was shocked by Duan Ling Tian’s confidence. “Defeat me in 10 strikes?” When he regained his senses, his anger spiked again. “Duan Ling Tian, I really want to see how you’re going to defeat me in ten strikes. I’ll need less than three strikes to kill you!” He lifted the giant saber in his hand and pointed it at the sky.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

A buzzing noise rang in the air as the chunky saber shot out a saber ray.

Five meters!

Ten meters!

Twenty meters!

The saber ray began to elongate and grew to about 100 meters before it finally stopped.

However, the crowd’s attention was not on the long saber ray. All of them gasped in shock when they saw Chen Yi Ru tear a hole in the void.

“Is that a hole in the void?”

“It’s true! He can really tear open a hole in the void!”

“Oh, my goodness! Even an Eminent Celestial can only tear open the void in or to a pseudo realm!”

“A cultivator at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage could also tear open a hole in the void that leads to the pseudo realm if he can find the original spot where the Eminent Celestial had previously torn open a hole.”

“However, this tear in the void doesn’t look like it leads to a pseudo realm!”
