Chapter 3019: Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Although the price of a soul defense Duke Grade Celestial Weapon was roughly the price of a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon, people would rarely exchange the former for the latter. Those who owned soul defense Duke Grade Celestial Weapons would not even exchange them for a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon that had been nurtured by a Celestial Lord. After all, soul defense Celestial Weapons were extremely rare. Not only was it difficult to forge them, but the materials required to forge them were incredibly rare as well. There was no doubt a soul defense Duke Grade Celestial Weapon was much more precious than a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon.
A soul defense Duke Grade Celestial Weapon could protect one from soul attacks by Celestial Dukes and those weaker. As long as it was not someone stronger than a Celestial Duke, a soul defense Duke Grade Celestial Weapon could even block attacks boosted with a profundity of a law. Naturally, that was only on the premise that the attacker had not fully comprehended the profundity of a law. If the attacker had completely mastered the profundity of a law, the soul defense Duke Grade Celestial Weapon would not even be able to block the attack from a One Basic Celestial Duke.
The force from the Soul Extinguis.h.i.+ng Water was weaker than an attack boosted with a profundity of a law from a Celestial Duke. For this reason, a soul defense Duke Grade Celestial Weapon would be able to block it.
“Brat, you have a soul defense Celestial Weapon at the Duke Grade or above?” Dongfang Jin Lun stared at Duan Ling Tian greedily.
It was rather obvious to everyone present on the scene that Dongfang Jin Lun coveted Duan Ling Tian’s soul defense Celestial Weapon.
Duan Ling Tian asked indifferently, “Why? Do you want it?”
“If you hand over your soul defense Celestial Weapon, not only will I spare your life, but I’ll also protect you and make sure you leave the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm alive,” Dongfang Jin Lun replied. The purple-clad young man was not even 100 years old. There was no way the young man posed any threat to him. Even if the purple-clad young man comprehended two profundities like him, he was still not afraid. He made no attempt to conceal his killing intent as he continued to say, “Although there’s no doubt a soul defense Celestial Weapon is precious, it’s definitely not as precious as your life.”
“You’re right.” Duan Ling Tian nodded faintly, agreeing with Dongfang Jin Lun’s words. “It’s not just soul defense Celestial Weapons. No treasure is comparable to one’s life…”
Dongfang Jin Lun said with a sneer, “Since you understand, hurry up and hand over your soul defense Celestial Weapon to me! Otherwise, you’ll regret it if I make my move.” He was only interested in Duan Ling Tian’s soul defense Celestial Weapon; he did not care about other treasures Duan Ling Tian might possess. After all, he had no lack of treasures.
Although Dongfang Jin Lun was confident he would be able to kill Duan Ling Tian and s.n.a.t.c.hed the soul defense Celestial Weapon away, he did not wish to kill anyone if it was not necessary. After all, once 70% of the partic.i.p.ants had fallen, everyone would be sent out of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. He wanted to spend more time in the lower realm to search for more treasures and fortuitous encounters.
“Is that so?” Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes as he said tonelessly, “Then, let’s have a look at how you’re going to make me feel regret.” With just a thought, he mobilized his power that lay dormant in his body.
“Since you have a death wish, I’ll fulfill your wis.h.!.+” Dongfang Jin Lun did not expect Duan Ling Tian to be so obstinate. His expression darkened as bolts of purple lightning flashed around his body.
Bang!
In the next moment, a saber appeared in Dongfang Jin Lun’s hand before he seemed to transform into a gigantic lightning bolt and shot toward Duan Ling Tian. Although he did not think Duan Ling Tian was a match for him, he did not hold back when he attacked. He did not dare to be careless, after all.
Everyone watched with bated breath as Dongfang Jin Lun drew closer to Duan Ling Tian.
When Dongfang Jin Lun was almost upon Duan Ling Tian, a seven-color sword shot out of Duan Ling Tian’s body. The sword emitted red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet lights. Among the seven colors, the violet light shone the brightest. A golden and mustard light could be seen as well.
Swis.h.!.+
Xiu!
A short-lived sword cry rang in the air.
The ear-piercing sound caused the onlookers to involuntarily s.h.i.+ver. An expression of terror could be seen on their faces when they saw the seven-color sword had accurately pierced Dongfang Jin Lun’s forehead.
The seven-color sword did not create much disturbance as it sailed in the air. It quietly and easily pierced Dongfang Jin Lun’s forehead. It seemed as effortless as snapping a twig into two.
A stream of blood gushed out of the wound on Dongfang Jin Lun’s forehead as his lightning power faded away. Although he had died, his eyes were wide open and his body was still moving toward Duan Ling Tian due to inertia.
Duan Ling Tian lifted a hand and blasted Dongfang Jin Lun’s corpse away with a surge of energy. Then, he collected Dongfang Jin Lun’s saber, purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon, and Spatial Ring.
Splas.h.!.+
The crowd finally regained their senses when Dongfang Jin Lun’s corpse fell into the Soul Extinguis.h.i.+ng Water. At this moment, apart from Ling Jue Yin, everyone, including Ou Ya, the genius from the Frost Sect, regarded Duan Ling Tian with expressions of terror on their faces.
‘The sword…’ A hint of confusion could be seen in Ou Ya’s eyes when she looked at the seven-color sword that disappeared into Duan Ling Tian’s palm. ‘Although the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities he used earlier contained the law of earth’s Earth Elemental Profundity, their grades are only at the King Grade or lower. The only reason he’s able to kill Dongfang Jin Lun is all thanks to that seven-color sword… Is… is the sword a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon?’
Ou Ya continued thinking to herself, ‘No… With the strength he demonstrated earlier, if it was a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, Dongfang Jin Lun could have dodged the attack with his speed… Moreover, Royal Grade Celestial Weapons won’t be able to merge with one’s body in such a manner… D-don’t… don’t tell me it’s an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon!’
Although most of the partic.i.p.ants were clueless, there were a few partic.i.p.ants who shared the same thoughts as Ou Ya as well.
Those who were unaware were shocked when they saw the seven-color sword enter Duan Ling Tian’s body. They began to fervently discuss among themselves.
“Heavens! What did I just see? That sword returned to Duan Ling Tian’s body?”
“What kind of weapon is that? A Royal Grade Celestial Weapon?”
“I’ve never seen anything like that… How did it enter his body? Don’t tell me Duan Ling Tian created a small world in his body?”
“Impossible! He’s only an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. Only Celestial Dukes or those who are stronger are capable of creating small worlds.”
“Then, how do you explain what happened?”
“Although a Celestial Duke can create a small world in their bodies, they wouldn’t store their Celestial Weapons in there. It’s very troublesome to retrieve Celestial Weapons from there, after all. It’s much more convenient to store them in Spatial Rings,” a middle-aged speculated in a soft voice, “If I’m not mistaken… the seven-color sword should be an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon!” His voice shook when he reached the end of his sentence.
An Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon!
Upon hearing these words, Xue Jing Yu and the others were thoroughly shocked. Who could blame them? They did not even dare to think about Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons. In the entire Southern Heaven Territory, the number of Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons could be counted on one hand. How could they not be shocked upon discovering Duan Ling Tian possessed an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon?
‘Who’s Duan Ling Tian?!’ Xue Jing Yu, who had fought Duan Ling Tian previously, felt his body shook when he regained his senses. If someone had told him that an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial possessed an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon before this, he would not have believed it even if he were beaten to death! In all the South Heaven Territory, not even the later generations of South Heaven Celestial Lords possessed Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons, let alone an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial!
“Who’s Duan Ling Tian? Why does he have an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon?!”
“Is this a joke?”
“An Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon! I didn’t expect I’d be able to see one in my life!”
Many of the partic.i.p.ants stared at Duan Ling Tian in shock and disbelief.
A young man speculated out loud, “Is it possible he obtained his Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon in the South Heaven Ancient Realm?”
Upon hearing this, many people disagreed with him,
“You’re thinking too much. Let alone the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient, there are no Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons even in the middle realm and the higher realm!”
“Even t.i.tled Celestial Lords from the Southern Heaven Territory would only encounter Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons if they were incredibly lucky! It’s impossible that the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm has Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons!”
