Chapter 2549 Killing A Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial
A Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial was the pinnacle of existence in mundane realms. To most people, such an existence was almost G.o.d-like. Now that the people from the Heavenly Wave Mansion thought Duan Ling Tian was a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, who would dare to risk offending him? Even another Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial would not have done so to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Duan Ling Tian smiled when he heard Yang Qing Jian’s offer. “You think I’ve been hired by the Tang Sect to follow Tang Xiao Xiao here?”
Upon hearing this, an ominous feeling rose in Yang Qing Jian’s heart. “Is that not the case?” He could not understand why a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial would meddle in the matter between the Heavenly Wave Mansion and the Tang Sect if he was not hired by the Tang Sect.
Duan Ling Tian did not respond to Yang Qing Jian’s question. He only said nonchalantly, “Ask your mansion’s Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial to reveal himself.”
Yang Qing Jian was taken aback by Duan Ling Tian’s words. He was becoming certain that Duan Ling Tian had come with ill-intentions. He quickly crushed a communication jade token to summon the old ancestor of the Heavenly Wave Mansion.
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
Duan Ling Tian looked at the northeast direction. He could vaguely sense a strong aura that was speeding over here at an extremely fast speed.
It did not take long before an ancient voice that was filled with vigor rang in the air. “I know all the Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials in Yan Huang Realm even if I haven’t met all of them. How should I address you?” An old man appeared like a ghost before everyone’s eyes at this moment.
The group of Heavenly Wave Mansion’s Bodiless Celestials followed Yang Qing Jian’s lead and bowed at the old man. “Old ancestor!”
Meanwhile, the people from the Heavenly Wave Mansion who had not seen the old man before were stunned. When they regained their senses, they quickly bowed respectfully as well.
The old man was the patron of the Heavenly Wave Mansion, a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial who was a pinnacle of existence in the mundane realms! He was dressed in a long grey robe. His body and appearance were extremely ordinary. He looked no different from an ordinary old man.
The old man nodded in response to the greetings before he s.h.i.+fted his attention back to Duan Ling Tian.
This confrontational scene caused the onlookers to hold their breaths in fear. After all, those two were Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials. They silently waited for Duan Ling Tian to reply to their old ancestor.
Contrary to expectations, Duan Ling Tian replied indifferently, “It’s not necessary for a dead man to know my name.”
Everyone was shocked by Duan Ling Tian’s words! How could he be so arrogant even when faced with their ancestor who was also a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?
The old man was also taken aback. When he regained his composure, he sneered. “A dead man? Me? Let alone the other Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials in Yan Huang Realm, even the strongest Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from the Gongsun family wouldn’t dare to carelessly say he’s able to kill me. And yet, someone like you is confident you’re capable of that…”
The onlookers from the Heavenly Wave Mansion looked at Duan Ling Tian as though he was an idiot. They thought he was foolishly arrogant as well.
“He’s too naive!”
“Does he really think that our ancestor is so weak?”
“Just because he’s a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, he thinks he’s invincible?”
Duan Ling Tian only scoffed in response before he began to make his move.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
The ear-piercing sounds of swords whistling rang in the air as energy surged from Duan Ling Tian’s body and turned into millions of sword rays. In just a blink of an eye, the sword rays fused together and formed a Sword Battle Formation. The Formation flew toward the old man instantly as clones of it began to appear.
This was Duan Ling Tian’s strongest attack. He had used his a.s.sist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, the highest stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword, and his offensive Divine Ability, the Thirteen Green Lotus Swords.
The dozen or so clones from the Sword Battle Formation was part of the effect of the Thirteen Green Lotus Swords.
Initially, when the clones of the Sword Battle Formation appeared, the old ancestor of the Heavenly Wave Mansion had sneered. “The might is just comparable to the strongest attack of an ordinary Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial.”
However, the old man’s smile froze on his face when he saw the clones merging with the Sword Battle Formation, increasing its force to a terrifying level. His expression changed to one of shock and fear. “How’s this possible?” He quickly took out a seven-foot-long spear and waved it in the air.
‘A Celestial Supreme Treasure?’ Duan Ling Tian easily identified the spear as a Celestial Supreme Treasure. However, he did not seem to care about it.
‘Ten Thousand Soldiers Surrender!’ With just a single thought, the Sword Battle Formation that was flying toward the Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from the Heavenly Wave Mansion suddenly emitted a strange and mysterious energy. The energy shot out and s.n.a.t.c.hed the old man’s Celestial Supreme Treasure away in just a blink of an eye.
The Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial’s hand was injured by his Celestial Supreme Treasure being s.n.a.t.c.hed away. His expression changed drastically as he cried out, “What’s going on?” He did not expect his Celestial Supreme Treasure would be so easily s.n.a.t.c.hed away! Who was this purple-clad young man? What technique did he just use?
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
As a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, he regained his composure quickly. A seven-foot-long spear formed from his energy quickly appeared in his hand. He jabbed the spear forward to parry the formidable incoming Sword Battle Formation.
Both the Sword Battle Formation and the seven-foot-long spear left hideous tears in the void. However, it was very obvious that the cracks left behind by Duan Ling Tian’s Sword Battle Formation were far longer and wider.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
In a blink of an eye, the Sword Battle Formation collided with the seven-foot-long spear. Although the Formation’s light slightly dimmed, it did not even pause as it easily overwhelmed the seven-foot-long spear before it crashed onto the Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from the Heavenly Wave Mansion like a wave.
Before the Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial died, his cry of despair rang in the air hauntingly. “No!”
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Meanwhile, the remnant of Duan Ling Tian’s attack wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Wave Mansion’s estate. Many buildings crashed to the ground. Some disciples whose cultivation bases were weaker were even seriously injured. Those with a stronger cultivation base had to retreat far away to avoid being affected.
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
After the remnant power from Duan Ling Tian’s attack faded away, only the sound of wind blowing could be heard.
When the chaos died down, the people from the Heavenly Wave Mansion saw the purple-clad young man standing nearby like an invincible G.o.d. Meanwhile, their ancestor had disappeared without a trace.
Yang Qing Jian, the Mansion Master of Heavenly Wave Mansion, cried out in despair, “Old ancestor!” A shattered Soul Pearl could be seen in his hand.
At the same time, an Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial cried out as well, “Our old ancestor is dead!”
Upon hearing this, everyone from the Heavenly Wave Mansion realized their ancestor had died.
