Chapter 320: Conflict On The Chain Bridge
Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytor Editor: Jay
"Elder Lu Qiu, let’s go." Duan Ling Tian lightly smiled and said to Lu Qiu.
He utterly disregarded what these new Seven Star Sword Sect outer court disciples said…
Lu Qiu glanced at Zhao Lin and was slightly displeased, then when he heard Duan Ling Tian, he nodded. "Okay."
Since Duan Ling Tian didn’t make a fuss about it, then he didn’t have any reason to fuss about it with these new Megrez Peak outer court disciples that had just entered the Seven Star Sword Sect.
"Why, afraid of being found out?"
"Senior Brother? Isn’t he afraid of us now?"
…
Some of the new disciples couldn’t refrain from laughing extremely complacently.
Duan Ling Tian’s face sank, he didn’t fuss about it with these new disciples earlier because there was no need to. The height that he stood at had long since been different from these new disciples…
If he were to make a fuss about it, then it would seem to be a loss of bearing.
And would undoubtedly amount to bullying the weak.
But now, these new disciples actually went on and on…
Did they really think he was nice to bully?
"Afraid of being found out? Afraid of all of you?" Duan Ling Tian abruptly turned around, and his icy cold gaze flashed past all of the 20 new disciples. "Just all of you, are worthy of that?!"
Just all of you, are worthy of that?!
Duan Ling Tian’s voice was like a thunderclap, causing the 20 new disciples to be muddled.
After a short amount of time, they returned to their senses, and were all enraged from embarra.s.sment.
"Kid, do you think that because you entered the Seven Star Sword Sect before us that you actually have the qualification to be our Senior Brother?" A face of a new disciple around the age of 23 or 24 sank, and his eyes flickered with a cold light.
"Exactly! The Cloud Continent has always stressed upon respecting the strong… If you want to be our Senior Brother, then your strength must be stronger than us! Just a little whelp that’s a little over 20 like you, do you believe that I only need one hand to throw you down from here?" Another new disciple looked at Duan Ling Tian, and the corners of his mouth curled into a sneer.
Even though the other new disciples didn’t speak, but their gazes when they looked at Duan Ling Tian now all expressed the same meaning.
They looked down on Duan Ling Tian!
They didn’t think that Duan Ling Tian’s strength was able to be stronger than them.
Only a mere outer court disciple that a little over 20!
The two Megrez Peak disciples behind Zhao Lin were all dumbstruck.
This group of hotheaded young men actually dared be so arrogant before Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian?
Even the two of them had to reverently and respectfully call out Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian when they met Duan Ling Tian…
But these hot headed young men hadn’t even arrived at Megrez Peak, and had already offended the number one outer court disciple of their Megrez Peak, no, it ought to be have offended the number one outer court disciple in the Seven Star Sword Sect.
As far as they were concerned, these hot headed young men were simple courting death!
For a moment, they intended to shout at these hot headed young men.
Could it be that these hothead young men didn’t hear them greeting Duan Ling Tian respectfully and reverently as Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian?
But, they hadn’t even opened their mouths when they were stopped by Zhao Lin’s fierce gaze.
Although they didn’t know why Zhao Lin wanted to stop them, but since Zhao Lin had interfered, they naturally could only obediently shut their mouths.
Even though Duan Ling Tian was the number one disciple in their Seven Star Sword Sect’s outer court, but in terms of strength and status, it was impossible for him to compare with the Megrez Peak outer court disciple, Zhao Lin.
After all, Zhao Lin’s age and seniority were there for all to see, and was something the current Duan Ling Tian was utterly unable to compare to.
Perhaps, someday in the future, Duan Ling Tian would be able to fully surpa.s.s Zhao Lin, but he was unable to now.
So, between Duan Ling Tian and Zhao Lin, they chose the latter.
"You said earlier than you can throw me off here with a single hand?" Duan Ling Tian looked at the new disciple that spoke earlier, and the corners of his mouth curled into an evil smile.
If someone familiar to Duan Ling Tian was here and saw Duan Ling Tian’s current smile, they would surely know that someone was about to suffer.
However, the new disciple seemed to have not noticed anything off in the slightest, and looks down at Duan Ling Tian with a contemptuous gaze as he sneered. "Exactly, just a whelp that’s a little over 20 like you. I only need a single hand to throw you off from here!"
This new disciple had broad shoulders and a bulky build, and was a robust young man.
Duan Ling Tian’s Spiritual Force was able to vaguely detect that the cultivation of this robust young man ought to be at the third level of the Origin Core Stage without a doubt.
A third level Origin Core Stage martial artist saying that he’s able to throw me down from here?
Duan Ling Tian laughed in his heart.
A wisp of a cold smile appeared on the face of Lu Qiu who stood beside Duan Ling Tian. As far as he was concerned, this new disciple was truly too arrogant, did he really think that Duan Ling Tian was an ordinary outer court disciple?
"Looks like you’re extremely confident of your strength… Then let me see how you throw me off here." Duan Ling Tian looked at the robust young man, and the corners of his mouth curled into a sneer.
As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Ling Tian’s figure flashed out to instantly appear before the robust young man, causing a gust of piercing strong wind to surge.
Above Duan Ling Tian, 110 lifelike ancient mammoth silhouettes condensed into form.
This scene scared the robust young man to the point his face went ghastly pale and was completely dumbstruck, and the Origin Energy in his body that he’d just acc.u.mulated instantly dispersed…
His legs were as if filled with lead, unable to move in the slightest.
What a joke!
An eighth level Origin Core Stage martial artist wanted to make a move against him, he was completely without any strength to strike back.
Clap!
Duan Ling Tian’s hand slapped onto the shoulder of the robust young man, and gripped his shoulder.
Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian exerted force with his hand.
Whoos.h.!.+
Duan Ling Tian raised his hand, the robust young man was thrown out of the chain bridge, and Duan Ling Tian grabbed onto the robust young man’s shoulder, hanging the robust young man in mid-air, then Duan Ling’s gaze went cold. "What do you think now? Do you only need one hand to be able to throw me down?"
Duan Ling Tian’s voice had an awe-inspiring icy coldness mixed within, causing the face of the robust young man that hung there mid-air to go ghastly pale, his gaze revealed despair as he pledged for mercy in panic. "Senior Brother, spare me! Senior Brother… Spare me!"
He was currently in mid-air, and there was no place for him to gain a foothold to move himself.
He could imagine that so long as this eight level Origin Core Stage outer court disciple that was a little over 20 let go, he would surely drop into the bottomless chasm, and even his corpse and body would be destroyed.
Cold sweat flowed out of the robust young man’s forehead, and he hated himself to the limit in his heart, why did he have to be the one who took the lead!
"Eighth level of the Origin Core Stage!" Meanwhile, the group of new disciples that were shocked from the strength Duan Ling Tian revealed had now recovered from their shock, and their faces went ghastly pale as they looked at the scene before their eyes, with eyes that revealed terror…
They’d never imagined that this outer court disciple that was a little over 20, and was younger than any of them, actually possessed such terrifying strength.
Eighth level Origin Core Stage martial artist at the mere age of a little over 20…
Are all the Seven Star Sword Sect outer court disciples so abnormal?
Now, most of the new disciples had a slight lingering fear in their hearts, they felt lucky that they didn’t go too far when they spoke earlier, otherwise, the person that was lifted out of the chain bridge and hung high in the air wouldn’t be that robust young man, but them.
For a moment, they started to silently mourn for that robust young man in their heart.
"Eighth level of the Origin Core Stage!" Zhao Lin’s face was extremely unsightly, as he never imagined that after Duan Ling Tian consumed the Profound Origin Fruit, Duan Ling Tian would actually break through to the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage in one go.
110 ancient mammoth silhouettes condensing into form above Duan Ling Tian when attacked was obviously the symbol of the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage!
In comparison to Zhao Lin’s unsightly expression, Lu Qiu instead had a pleasantly surprised expression.
Although he knew that Duan Ling Tian had obtained the Profound Origin Fruit, and guessed that Duan Ling Tian would undergo a break through…
But there was a divide that was like a chasm between the sixth level of the Origin Core Stage and the seventh level of the Origin Core Stage!
As far as he was concerned, after Duan Ling Tian consumed the Origin Profound Fruit, he would at most break through to the seventh level of the Origin Core Stage.
Unexpectedly, the facts weren’t like this.
Duan Ling Tian had broken through to the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage in one go!
How could Lu Qiu have known that Duan Ling Tian actually had only broken through to the seventh level of the Origin Core Stage like he thought, but because of him the uniqueness of the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique that Duan Ling Tian cultivated, Duan Ling Tian instead had the strength of 11 ancient mammoths more than an ordinary seventh level Origin Core Stage martial artist.
Even when he made a move now, and Duan Ling Tian had the intention to demonstrate his might, but he still concealed the strength of one ancient mammoth.
However, even then, he was still misunderstood by others to be a martial artist at the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage.
This was also Duan Ling Tian’s objective.
He precisely wanted others to know that he was an eighth level Origin Core Stage martial artist now!
The two Megrez Peak disciples behind Zhao Lin had dumbstruck expressions. "Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian… Actually broke through to the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage in one go?!"
They were both shocked by it.
"Senior Brother, spare me, spare me!" The robust young man that had his shoulder grabbed by Duan Ling Tian to hang high above in the sky outer of the chain bridge had clothes that were not drenched in sweat, and his voice was dreary as he pleaded to Duan Ling Tian.
"What? Didn’t you say you wanted to throw me down? I’m really curious, if I let go now…" Duan Ling Tian’s face was extremely gloomy, and he looked calmly at the robust young man that ceaseless begged for mercy.
"Senior Brother, don’t… DON’T! I was only joking earlier, right, I was joking!" The robust young man was frightened by Duan Ling Tian to the point his face was devoid of blood, and he ceaseless pleaded for mercy.
"Duan Ling Tian, enough!" Zhao Lin’s face sank and he finally interfered, he looked at Duan Ling Tian as he spoke in an incomparably cold and indifferent voice.
"Enough?" Duan Ling Tian turned around to look at Zhao Lin when he heard Zhao Lin wanting to stop him, then sneered. "Elder Zhao Lin, when they provoked me earlier, I didn’t see you say anything… Now I’m only slightly punis.h.i.+ng someone who spoke insolently to me, and you can’t watch on any longer?"
Although the conflict between him and Zhao Lin wasn’t little, but Zhao Lin’s actions still caused Duan Ling Tian to be incomparably furious.
In this matter, Zhao Lin had been prejudiced, and was unworthy of being a Megrez Peak outer court disciple!
"Let him go!" Zhao Lin looked at Duan Ling Tian with a cold and indifferent gaze as he spoke with a low and deep voice.
"Elder Zhao Lin, are you sure you want me to let him go?" Duan Ling Tian was stunned when he heard Zhao Lin, then he couldn’t refrain his laughter, and he glanced at the robust young man that was held by him mid-air outside the chain bridge. "Looks like Elder Zhao Lin wants you to go die… Tell me, should I listen to Elder Zhao Lin and let you go?"
"No… Don’t! Don’t let me go, Senior Brother, I beg you, don’t let me go." The robust young man was terrified to the point he was on the brink of tears.
