Chapter 2910: Barging Into The Profound Heaven Celestial Sect’s Estate
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Profound Heaven Celestial Sect was the strongest of all the top forces in the Six Southeastern Regions. Its strength far surpa.s.sed the other top sects in the Six Southeastern Regions, and the sect’s foundation was extremely stable.
In the Six Southeastern Regions, some of the top sects did not even have a Nine Palaces Celestial Duke, let alone a Ten Direction Celestial Duke. There were a few sects that had Nine Palaces Celestial Duke but no Ten Direction Celestial Duke.
The top sects in the Six Southeastern Regions with Ten Directions Celestial Dukes such as the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, the Compa.s.sionate Celestial Traveler Sect, and the Blissful Celestial Sect were the cream of the crop. However, the Compa.s.sionate Celestial Traveler Sect and the Blissful Sect only had one Ten Directions Celestial Duke in their respective sects. How could they hope to compare with the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect that had three Ten Directions Celestial Dukes? It was all thanks to the three Ten Directions Celestial Dukes that the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect managed to stand on the peak of the Six Southeastern Regions and the borderlands.
Naturally, this ranking of strength did not take into account the reclusive quasi Celestial Kings from each sect. After all, no one knew for sure if a sect had a quasi Celestial King or not. All of the top sects had Celestial Kings before. Who knew if some of these Celestial Kings stayed behind in the borderlands for the sake of their sects? If so, how many did they have? These reclusive elites would only appear when their respective sects were on the verge of destruction. In the known history of the Six Southeastern Regions, the Tai Yi Celestial Sect was known to have quasi Celestial Kings. For all these reasons, although the top sects in the Six Southeastern Regions had varying strength, none of them would recklessly make a move against each other due to the hidden danger.
However, although the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect did not dare to anything as bold as completely destroying the weaker sects due to the deterrence from the reclusive quasi Celestial Kings, the other sects still did not dare to challenge the authority of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect. Even the Sect Leaders of the Compa.s.sionate Celestial Traveler Sect and Blissful Sect who were equally as strong as Bai Wu Ji, the Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial, greeted him with a now. After all, as long as the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect did not do anything brash and foolish, the two sects would not recklessly oppose the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
“The Profound Heaven Celestial Sect is up ahead?” In fact, when Tie Tai He came to a halt, Duan Ling Tian had already guessed they had arrived at the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect. Upon hearing the former’s words, he instinctively looked up. He saw a lush forest that seemed to stretch infinitely. Thousands of meters up high in the sky, there was an area that was shrouded in fog where the clouds looked peculiar. If he did not use the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, and thus, possessing extra strength, he would not have noticed this peculiarity. With this strength, it only took him a moment to discover the strangeness in the sky.
When Tie Tai He saw Duan Ling Tian staring at the peculiar spot in the sky, he explained, “The Profound Heaven Celestial Sect’s estate is located in the clouds and fog. This forest has many Celestial Beasts with the ability to fly that are without intelligence. The sect uses it as a training ground for their disciples.”
Duan Ling Tian nodded faintly as he said indifferently, “Come. Let’s have a look at the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect who managed to survive the Old Ancestor’s attack. I want to hear the details of how he managed to survive.” As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying Celestial Origin Energy surged out his body and gently enveloped Tie Tai He and Huan’er. In just a blink of an eye, the trio seemed to have disappeared into thin air.
In the next moment, the trio had arrived at the sky ten thousand meters above the forest and pa.s.sed through the fog from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect’s Formation. This Formation could be considered as the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect’s first layer of defense. If an outsider were to charge in, even if it was a One Basic Celestial King, the Formation would still detect him or her. However, since Duan Ling Tian was now like an Eight Trigrams Celestial King, he easily walked into defensive Formation as though it was his own backyard.
As soon as the trio entered the Formation and into the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, Huan’er, who had woken up from cultivating a few days ago, said. “Brother Ling Tian, the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect’s estate seems a lot more powerful than Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s….”
Tie Tai He only smiled wryly when he heard Huan’er’s words. He had already gotten used to her blunt manner of speaking.
Duan Ling Tian looked at the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect’s estate with bright eyes as he said, “This is the strongest sect in the Six Southeastern Regions, after all. Their estate, naturally, would be impressive.”
Indeed, the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect’s estate and its scenery were stunning. The estate consisted of beautiful islands hanging in the air. However, each island was different. The only thing in common they had was they were all exquisitely built.
“Elder Tie, we traveled such a long way just to visit the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect. Why don’t you make a friendly announcement about the arrival of the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect?” Duan Ling Tian said. Despite the faint smile on his face, his eyes were terrifyingly cold and pointed.
When Duan Ling Tian first learned that He Shan, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, had been plotted against and unjustly blamed for the death of Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, a fire of fury had blazed in his heart. He Shan had suffered such a great injustice, after all. Although he was not particularly close to He Shan, the Tai Yi Celestial Sect had not mistreated him. Therefore, if it was within his ability to do something, he would not stand by idly and close an eye to this matter.
“Okay.” Tie Tai He had antic.i.p.ated these words from Duan Ling Tian. Therefore, he did not hesitate and infused his Celestial Origin Energy into his voice before he loudly announced their arrival. “The Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s Supreme Elder and Chief Celestial Alchemist, Tie Tai He and Duan Ling Tian, have come to visit the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect!”
Tie Tai He’s voice resonated clearly in the entire Profound Heaven Celestial Sect’s estate, causing an uproar. After all, it was clear they had charged in uninvited. If they were outside the Formation, even a Ten Direction Celestial Duke’s voice would have been difficult to hear in the estate. Apart from being a defensive Formation, the Formation also had a sound-proofing effect. Only Celestial Kings would be able to easily project their voices into the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect’s estate.
The disciples of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect began to discuss among themselves when they heard Tie Tai He’s voice. Their voices were dripping with disdain when they spoke among themselves.
“The Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s Supreme Elder, Tie Tai He? The former Left Guardian who recently broke through and became a Seven Stars Celestial Duke?”
“I don’t think our sect had invited them here nor did they inform us of their intention to visit in advance…”
“So not only did they come uninvited, but they also charged into our sect’s estate?”
Someone scoffed. “Just an insignificant Seven Stars Celestial Duke! How audacious!”
“It seems like he has brought Duan Ling Tian, the Chief Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, with him. Could Duan Ling Tian be the source of his confidence?”
Someone said with a sneer, “Even the former best prominent Celestial Alchemist in the Six Southeastern Regions, Sun Chao, had to wait outside before being invited in. Even if Duan Ling Tian has replaced Sun Chao as the best prominent Celestial Alchemist, he doesn’t have the qualifications to barge in unannounced!”
Meanwhile, Bai Wu Ji’s eyebrows rose when he heard Tie Tai He’s voice. “Tie Tai He? Duan Ling Tian? Why did they come?” Based on the way they had barged in unannounced, it was clear they were not here for a friendly visit. Regardless, he was not bothered. He did not even personally receive them. After all, he had his status to consider.
On the other hand, the high-ranking officials of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect had no qualms about going to see Duan Ling Tian and Tie Tai He.
“Come! Let’s have a look at the Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s Tie Tai He… I really want to see where he gets the confidence to barge into our Profound Heaven Celestial Sect’s estate!”
“Even a mere Seven Stars Celestial Duke dares to act so impudently… Let’s see if he’s able to maintain his arrogance in front of me, an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke!”
“He thinks he can walk into our estate like it’s his backyard just because of the brat who’s recognized as the best prominent Celestial Alchemist in the Six Southeastern Regions is with him?”
“I want to see how he’s going to explain his impudence to us!”
