Chapter 4694 Duan Nian Tian Is on the Mountain Alliance’s Deserted Island
Although Yu Luo He managed to escape, Duan Ling Tian could still sense the Life Creation Chart. This meant that as long as Yu Luo He did not abandon the Life Creation Chart, Duan Ling Tian would be able to find Yu Luo He no matter where Yu Luo He fled.
Duan Ling Tian decided to give up on his pursuit of Yu Luo He because he knew that as long as Chen Ming Hao kept stirring up trouble by using the Limitless Sword Dao, he would not be able to defeat Yu Luo He. As such, continuing the pursuit was meaningless.
"I could sense it when he used the Limitless Sword Dao. I supposed it"s the same vice versa. Otherwise, he wouldn"t have interfered and used the Limitless Sword Dao when I was attacking Yu Luo He. He knew my strength would decline sharply."
Duan Ling Tian, who was hovering above the stormy sea, wore a gloomy expression on his face as he looked in a certain direction. It was the direction of a place that Jiang Tian Zheng from the Surging River Divine Kingdom had told him about: the Chen clan of the Myriad Mountain. The Chen clan was a force with two Dao Merging powerhouses, and one of them had even merged three Daos. This made them one of the top forces in the Divine Land.
"This is really annoying, but there"s nothing I can do about it," Duan Ling Tian said through gritted teeth as a hint of unwillingness flashed in his eyes.
After all, the Life Creation Chart had just been within his grasp, but due to Chen Ming Hao"s interference, he could only watch the chart slip away.
Duan Ling Tian had two choices now.
First, he could continue to grow stronger by attempting to merge the third Dao with his Limitless Sword Dao. This would put him on equal standing with the powerhouse of the Chen clan. Not only that, but if he was successful, he would no longer have to contend for energy when using the Dao since what he comprehended would no longer be just the Limitless Sword Dao.
However, it would take some time for him to achieve this feat. Needless to say, it was far more difficult to merge three Daos compared to merging two Daos. Moreover, he was not quite certain how he should go about it yet. Previously, he managed to merge two Daos thanks to his visit to the Temple of the Bitter Sea where he was enlightened. It was a series of good luck that led to the merging of his Daos. Apart from his enlightenment, he had the guidance of Yong Ye, the divine monk of the Temple of the Bitter Sea, and he also had the Dao Merging tablet. The combination of these things helped him successfully break into the Dao Merging realm.
As for the other choice, it was rather straightforward. Duan Ling Tian could look for someone to help him. He would be in charge of finding Yu Luo He, and the other party would help him deal with Yu Luo He to seize the Life Creation Chart.
However, there was a huge problem with this. Was there anyone who did not covet the Life Creation Chart? It would be difficult for him to find a helper who had no interest in the Life Creation Chart.
Duan Ling Tian did not feel like he could trust the Dao Merging powerhouses from the Surging Divine Kingdom, the Temple of the Bitter Sea, and Sea Vault Island with whom he was familiar. Even if they claimed they were not interested in the Life Chart Creation, he would not dare to trust them. It was similar to how, back on Earth, there were people who claimed they did not care about money when that was clearly not the case.
Unless his family members or good friends became a Dao Merging powerhouse, he could not trust anyone at all. This meant that if he wanted to obtain the Life Creation Chart now, he could only rely on himself.
…
The Divine Land was vast but not boundless. Even then, for ordinary people, it was difficult to traverse it.
In a remote area in the Divine Land beyond the perilous sea, there was a deserted island with abundant mineral resources. This place was under the control of a force with a level-four Dao Establishment powerhouse.
A group of prisoners were captured and forced to mine here tirelessly and endlessly.
In the center of the deserted island, a young man with feminine features shook his head and said to a tall and imposing young man standing next to him, "Nian Tian, you really had a hard time. After avoiding the fate of being killed by the Sacrificial Dao, you were transported from the world within the Life Creation Chart to this place. Then, the Mountain Alliance forcefully sent you here, effectively imprisoning you here…"
Duan Nian Tian smiled bitterly. "There"s nothing I can do about it. The daughter of the Deputy Leader of the Mountain Alliance… With such a reputation, if I marry her, my father will probably skin me alive!"
After being transported away from the Myriad Worlds, Duan Nian Tian was sent to a territory of the Mountain Alliance. The Mountain Alliance only had a level-four Dao Establishment powerhouse, but in this remote place, it could be considered a small overlord.
As soon as he arrived, he wanted to explore the place to gain a better understanding. However, while he was wandering around, he caught the eye of the daughter of Guo Qiu, the Deputy Leader of the Mountain Alliance.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with the appearance of Guo Qiu"s daughter. It was just that her reputation was rather bad. Before meeting him, she had been involved with many men at the same time. Strangely, when she saw him, she became serious about him, unlike the other men she had been involved with. Perhaps, it was love at first sight. She was ready to settle down, and to prove her love to him, she even killed all the men she was with.
Duan Nian Tian could not help but feel a chill running down his spine when he thought about that scene. That woman was really terrifying.
Apart from her involvement with many men in the past, he was also put off by her cruelty. He knew he could not accept her. Putting himself aside, even his parents would not be able to accept it if he married her.
Originally, he had prepared to die, thinking that the other party would surely kill him for refusing. Unexpectedly, the other party did not kill him and sent him to the deserted island instead, planning to imprison him here for the rest of his life.
"Someone"s coming!"
Duan Nian Tian"s expression changed immediately, and he quickly pulled the young man next to him aside. They had snuck here, and if they were found, they would be punished.
The young man took a peek and saw an old man and a middle-aged man. He said in a hushed voice, "It"s Lord Xue Ping and Lord Sheng An."
The two men did not lower their voices when they talked, so Duan Nian Tian and his companion could clearly hear them.
"I heard that a strong Dao Merging powerhouse had appeared in the Surging River Divine Kingdom!"
"Is it true?"
"Yes. I heard that he"s from the world within the Life Creation Chart. He came to the Divine Land only decades ago, but he has already entered the Dao Merging realm. How terrifying!"
