4477 Zhong Yue’s Speculation; Second Collision
“He’s not a peerless top advanced Supreme G.o.d yet,” the old man, one of the three men who had attacked with Leng Jing earlier, said. He was very observant, and he was now staring at Duan Ling Tian intently with fear in his eyes as he continued to say, “His law of s.p.a.ce just reached the perfect form not long ago. The reason he’s so strong is due to his Sword Dao. Currently, he’s not any weaker than…Miss Linghu Yun Di from the Linghu clan!”
The old man was an elder in the Mount Tai’s Zhong clan. Not long ago, he had received a message from Zhong Yue and left the clan to help Zhong Yue. He also learned that Zhong Yue was unable to act previously due to Linghu Yun Di’s intervention. He was not surprised that Zhong Yue did not go against Linghu Yun Di. After all, even if Leng Jing helped Zhong Yue, not only would they not benefit from going against Linghu Yun Di, but they would also offend Linghu Yun Di, which was no different from offending the Linghu clan.
The old man had naturally heard of Linghu Yun Di and knew that she was acknowledged as peerless among those below the realm of peerless top advanced Supreme G.o.ds in the Peaceful Might Realm. As such, he could not help but compare Duan Ling Tian to her.
“He’s not any weaker than… Linghu Yun Di?”
!!
In the distance, Zhong Yue’s expression turned unsightly when he heard the old man’s a.s.sessment. After a moment, he asked Duan Ling Tian in a deep voice, “May I ask where you come from? Perhaps, Mount Tai’s Zhong clan is affiliated with the force you belong to.”
Zhong Yue’s tone had become much more polite now. Nonetheless, one could still hear the reluctance in his voice.
Duan Ling Tian only glanced at Zhong Yue indifferently before he looked away. Clearly, he had no intention of responding to Zhong Yue.
Zhong Yue’s face flushed red from anger immediately upon seeing this. After all, as the Young Master of Mount Tai’s Zhong clan, he had never been treated in such a manner. If he were not wary of Duan Ling Tian’s background, he would have lost his temper by now.
On the contrary, Leng Jing remained indifferent. He said, “I don’t believe he’s on par with Linghu Yun Di…” Then, he continued to say to the three men, “We were careless and underestimated him earlier. After this, the four of us will attack with all our might. Let’s see if he can still defend himself against us. If he’s able to do it, it means he’s really not weaker than Linghu Yun Di.”
When Leng Jing’s voice fell, the three men looked at Zhong Yue in unison. They were members of the Zhong clan after all, and they were summoned here by Zhong Yue. It was only natural that they listened to Zhong Yue. Leng Jing, despite his good relations.h.i.+p with Zhong Jue, was not qualified to order them around.
Upon seeing the gloomy Zhong Yue nod, the trio finally nodded in response to Leng Jing’s words. As they charged out along with Leng Jing, blood qi surged and lingered around their bodies. Just as Leng Jing suggested earlier, all of them attacked without holding back at all this time.
The four figures, which looked majestic, swept out domineeringly between heaven and earth, causing the void to crack. They seemed to eclipse the sun at this moment with their terrifying strength.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
…
Along with the surging power, the phenomena of the laws appeared. It naturally attracted the attention of everyone in the vicinity. However, no one came to have a look. Perhaps, they did not dare to come over to have a look due to their lacking strength, afraid of being affected by the fight.
Thousands of miles away, a figure that was flying at top speed suddenly came to a halt. He looked in the direction of the commotion fearfully as he muttered under his breath, “Heavens! Who’s fighting? The power is earth-shattering! The energies… They’re definitely not ordinary advanced Supreme G.o.ds!
…
In another place 8,000 miles away.
A burly figure stood at the top of a mountain and looked in the direction of the commotion. His eyes flashed with fear as he said, “Although I’ve been an advanced Supreme G.o.d quite a while ago, I don’t think I’d be able to withstand even one move from those people… Are they peerless top advanced Supreme G.o.ds? Even if they’re not, they must be close to becoming one…”
…
Back to the battlefield.
Leng Jing did not believe that Duan Ling Tian was on par with Linghu Yun Di. As such, he joined forces with the three men from the Zhong clan again and attacked Duan Ling Tian. This time, the four of them did not hold back and attacked with all their might.
In the distance, Zhong Yue and Hu Fei Yan, who was burning with fighting spirits earlier, tacitly stopped fighting and watched the confrontation. After all, based on her short exchange with Zhong Yue, she determined that they were both on par with each other. Now, she wanted to see Duan Ling Tian’s strength after the breakthrough in his law of s.p.a.ce.
‘Li Feng has doppelgangers… Now that his law of s.p.a.ce has broken through, his doppelganger from the law of s.p.a.ce must be stronger as well…’ Hu Fei Yan, who was aware of Duan Ling Tian’s hidden strength, thought to herself.
At the same time, Duan Ling Tian did not flinch at all when faced with the attacks of Leng Jing and the three men. On the contrary, his eyes were bright as he rushed out to meet them. As he flew out, his doppelganger appeared. The doppelganger resembled him completely except for its lifeless eyes. Apart from that, its movements and speed were not much slower than those of Duan Ling Tian at all.
Zhong Yue’s eyes widened slightly. ‘Doppelganger?! He’s from the Myriad Worlds?!’
Although they were cultivators whose bloodline powers allowed them to form doppelgangers in the Outer Boundary, most cultivators in the Outer Boundary who owned doppelgangers were from the Myriad Worlds.
Zhong Yue had a certain understanding of the Myriad Worlds. When he was a child, he had heard from his elders about the countless powerhouses in the Myriad Worlds. In fact, there were a few visiting elders in Mount Tai’s Zhong clan who were from the Myriad Worlds. He had heard that those in the three strongest Worlds were even more powerful than the Saints in the Outer Boundary, and he had heard of the saint-rank forces in the three strongest Worlds; he did not know much about other forces. His knowledge was only limited to what he was told. He had never been to the Myriad Worlds before.
Zhong Yue recalled everything that happened before he speculated inwardly, ‘If he’s from the Myriad Worlds, it’s quite likely that he’s from a saint-rank force in the Myriad Worlds…’
At the same time, six figures collided in the distance. Duan Ling Tian and his doppelganger fought with Leng Jing and the other three men fearlessly. Despite the presence of his doppelganger, the fight could be considered a one-versus-four fight.
Since the four men did not possess doppelgangers, they could only fight with their bloodline powers.
At this moment, Zhong Yue looked at Hu Fei Yan and asked through Voice Transmission, “Hu Fei Yan, which World did he come from? Did he tell you he came from the Myriad Worlds?”
Hu Fei Yang was slightly surprised that Zhong Yue caught on so quickly. Nonetheless, she feigned a confused expression and asked, “Huh? What do you mean? What World?”
Zhong Yue seemed to be fooled by Hu Fei Yan. He muttered, “If he’s not from the Myriad Worlds, with his doppelgangers, he can only be from one of the few forces in the Outer Boundary…”
Among the cultivators in the Outer Boundary, many of them possessed bloodline powers, and very few possessed doppelgangers. There were perhaps a few demi Saints, who were imminent Saints, who possessed doppelgangers and one Saint who possessed doppelgangers.
A thought suddenly appeared in Zhong Yue’s mind, and his eyes widened in shock. He shook his head and thought to himself, ‘Wait! Because I’m from a clan, I habitually only consider other clans… He could be from a sect as well… There’s also a possibility that he’s a disciple of a demi Saint…’
Based on how fearless Duan Ling Tian was when facing him, Zhong Yue theorized that Duan Ling Tian must have had the support of a demi Saint.
Although the Zhong clan was a powerful second-tier force in the Peaceful Might Realm, the clan had no demi Saints. However, the clan had several supreme powerhouses. Among the supreme powerhouses, one of them was similar to Hu Bu Gui; the Lord of the Colossal Heaven Army, and was close to becoming a demi Saint. Considering how fearless Duan Ling Tian was, Zhong Yue thought that the person or force behind Duan Ling Tian definitely was a demi Saint or had a demi Saint at least.
At this moment, Zhong Yue was suddenly pulled back to his senses by a loud commotion. He quickly looked up and saw that the confrontation between Duan Ling Tian and the others had ended. His heart skipped a beat as he wondered inwardly, ‘What are the results?’
Hu Fei Yan, who was standing nearby, looked ahead intently as well.
The smoke gradually dispersed, and the dust gradually settled, revealing the sight hidden from Zhong Yue and Hu Fei Yan just a moment earlier. The duo froze as they looked at the scene before them in shock.
“This…”
