Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Three purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons that had been nurtured by Celestial Lords’ Celestial Origin Energies!
The eyes of the ten people in the room brightened up immediately when they heard the words of what seemed to be the Southern Heaven Celestial Lord.
The next moment, three pieces of dark armor appeared in the air. They were shrouded in black light and purple lightning bolts could be seen flas.h.i.+ng on them. Whenever the purple lightning bolts flashed, the air seemed to ripple. A mysterious energy loomed in the room, slightly pressuring the room’s occupants.
‘So these are the three defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons that had been nurtured by Celestial Lords?’ Duan Ling Tian’s eyes gleamed brightly as he looked at the three defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons, clearly delighted.
Purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons that had been nurtured by Celestial Lords were undoubtedly stronger than the ordinary defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon, the Red Scale Vest, that Duan Ling Tian possessed. In fact, it was only slightly weaker than a purely defensive Royal Grade Celestial Weapon.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Duan Ling Tian was still immersed in his thoughts when a series of explosions rang in the air,
Eight people, including Xue Jing Yu, flew into the air, making their way to the three defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons that were hovering in the air at lightning speed. Purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons nurtured by Celestial Lords were extremely rare. Even the Three Sects and Two Clans possessed only a few of such weapons. The weapons were rare and invaluable. Who could resist them?
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoosh Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun remained in their spots. They watched in a leisurely manner as the eight people dashed toward the three King Grade Celestial Weapons at the speed of light, hoping to get their hands on the weapons first.
Ling Jue Yun looked at Duan Ling Tian and said, “I want one.”
Duan Ling Tian c.o.c.ked an eyebrow. “Are you short of King Grade Celestial Weapons?” He was slightly taken back that Ling Jue Yun was interested in the purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons. Although they were rare, Ling Jue Yun was from the Divine Offering Land, after all. There were many treasures that were far superior to King Grade Celestial Weapons. Why would Ling Jue Yun want one?
“I know what you’re thinking. When I left the Divine Offering Land, I took a few artifacts and Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons with me. The King Grade Celestial Weapons that I currently have were obtained later on. However, do you think it’s wise for me to openly wield my artifacts and Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons?” Ling Jue Yun glanced at Duan Ling Tian. “Do you openly wield your artifact? If the Three Sects and Two Clans find out you possess an artifact, they’ll definitely kill you if you refuse to hand over the artifact to them. I’ve already obtained a King Grade Celestial Sword that had been nurtured by a Celestial Lord in the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, but I’m lacking a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon.”
“Alright.” Duan Ling Tian nodded slightly when he heard Ling Jue Yun’s explanation. He could empathize with Ling Jue Yun, after all. Just as Ling Jue Yun had said, he could not simply reveal the existence of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, unless he was 100% certain there was no one around and he could kill his opponent. Moreover, if he were to fight with Ling Jue Yun over the defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons, he was not sure he could best Ling Jue Yun. After all, Ling Jue Yun possessed artifacts from the Divine Offering Realm. Moreover, it was likely that Ling Jue Yun’s artifacts had artifacts souls as well. Even if he was certain he could best Ling Jue Yun, he still would not fight Ling Jue Yun for a defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon. After all, although it came with a condition, it was all thanks to Ling Jue Yun that he had gained an artifact soul for the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword.
“One of the King Grade Celestial Weapons is yours. The remaining two are mine,” Duan Ling Tian said to Ling Jue Yun. Based on his words, he clearly did not think the other eight partic.i.p.ants would be able to s.n.a.t.c.h the purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapons from him.
“It doesn’t matter to me since I can only use one anyway.” Ling Jue Yun shrugged.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
While Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun were conversing, an intense battle broke out between the eight people who went for the three King Grade Celestial Weapons. These people attacked indiscriminately.
Whenever one person reached out for one of the three King Grade Celestial Weapons, he would be instantly targeted by the other seven people. At this moment, it was difficult to predict the outcome.
After a few moments, one of the partic.i.p.ants discovered there were only eight of them vying for three King Grade Celestial Weapons. He thought to himself in confusion, ‘Why are there only eight of us?’
Boom!
The partic.i.p.ant, a middle-aged man, withdrew from the battle momentarily and saw two young men standing leisurely at a corner. It was as though they were not interested in the King Grade Celestial Weapons at all. He asked, “Aren’t both of you interested in the King Grade Celestial Weapons?”
The middle-aged man’s voice was loud and clear, drowning out the noises from the ongoing battle.
All of a sudden, the seven people fighting for the King Grade Celestial Weapons halted their movements and exchanged a look before they s.h.i.+fted their eyes to Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun.
Among the seven people, four of them s.h.i.+vered slightly when they looked at Duan Ling Tian. After all, Duan Ling Tian seemed to have comprehended two profundities of a law. His strength was superior to theirs, and his defenses were exceptional. Even if they attacked with all their might, they would not be able to breach his defense.
The frightened expressions on the four partic.i.p.ants’ faces caught the attention of the remaining three people behind them. These three people were oblivious to Duan Ling Tian’s strength since they did not witness him in battle during the first trial in the Celestial Lord Temple. Two of them began to discuss among themselves.
“Is the purple-clad young man very powerful?”
“He’s not even 100 years old, how powerful could he be?”
The middle-aged man who noticed Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun’s absence first sneered. “Why don’t both of you find out for yourselves how powerful he is?” These three men’s strength was on par with his. He knew they would not be a match for Duan Ling Tian even if they joined forces.
At this moment, an old man who had witnessed Duan Ling Tian’s prowess earlier said, “Duan Ling Tian, most of us know how powerful you are. Why don’t you take one of the King Grade Celestial Weapons, and leave the remaining two for us? What do you think?”
Upon hearing the old man’s words, the three clueless men frowned.
On the contrary, the other four people, including Xue Jing Yu, nodded in agreement.
“That’s right. Duan Ling Tian, why don’t you choose one of the three King Grade Celestial Weapons?”
“Duan Ling Tian, after you…”
“That’s right, that’s right. Let us fight over the remaining two weapons…”
Upon seeing the four partic.i.p.ants’ reactions, the three clueless men finally realized Duan Ling Tian was not a simple person.
“Is it possible that the purple-clad young man is a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial who has comprehended two profundities of a law?”
“It’s possible. Otherwise, why would the others give up a King Grade Celestial Weapon so easily? It’s a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon that had been nurtured by a Celestial Lord, after all!”
“Seeing how afraid they are of him, I don’t think we’re his match at all. If he wants one, just let him have it.”
The three men finally decided not to object to the old man’s suggestion of letting Duan Ling Tian have one of the King Grade Celestial Weapons.
At this moment, the seven partic.i.p.ants looked at Duan Ling Tian, waiting for his reply.
The three clueless men were certain Duan Ling Tian would instantly agree to the request.
On the contrary, the remaining four partic.i.p.ants were unsure. They were worried Duan Ling Tian might want all three of the King Grade Celestial Weapons. At that time, five of them would have no choice but to trust each other and join forces to fight Duan Ling Tian. They knew if they did not join forces, they would not be a match for him at all. However, even if they joined forces, they knew it was impossible for them to kill or defeat Duan Ling Tian. At most, they would be able to come to a draw. Apart from that, it would be difficult for them to work together since they were rife with distrust.
“One King Grade Celestial Weapon?” Duan Ling Tian faintly smiled before he calmly said, “I’m sorry, but I want two King Grade Celestial Weapons.”
