Chapter 3575: The Defeated Mi Xuan Escapes
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mi Xuan was not surprised by Duan Ling Tian’s divine artifact.
After all, Wu Hong Qing, the Temple Master of the t.i.tle Temple, had speculated that Duan Ling Tian’s master, Feng Qing Yang; the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, must have had a fortuitous encounter while he was in the Asura h.e.l.l that propelled him to G.o.dhood in just a few hundred years. Moreover, the fortuitous encounter even helped Feng Qing Yang become a rudimentary King of G.o.ds. As such, Wu Hong Qing deduced that Feng Qing Yang must have also obtained many divine artifacts during his time in the Asura h.e.l.l. Following that thought, Wu Hong Qing concluded that Feng Qing Yang must have given his one and only true disciple a divine artifact.
Mi Xuan was forced to use his soul attack because he knew it would be impossible for him to capture or kill Duan Ling Tian otherwise. Duan Ling Tian’s divine artifact was clearly superior to his. For all these reasons, he could only use his soul attack to kill Duan Ling Tian.
Although his soul attacks did not contain the power of the law he comprehended nor could his divine artifact boost his soul attack, Mi Xuan was very confident about his soul attack. He was certain it was enough to kill Duan Ling Tian.
“Duan Ling Tian, after you die, I’ll send your master, Feng Qing Yang, to accompany you in h.e.l.l!” Mi Xuan said coldly.
Following that, a golden-gray energy shot out of Mi Xuan’s glabella, leaving the void rippling in its wake.
“You should feel honored to be killed by my soul attack!” Although Mi Xuan’s soul was now only that of a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor, even with the boost from the divine artifact, only a few demiG.o.ds in the Devata Realms would be able to withstand his soul attack with the help of a soul-defense divine artifact.
Swoos.h.!.+
While Mi Xuan’s soul attack shot toward Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ling Tian’s tens of thousands of sword rays continued to fall on Mi Xuan. However, Mi Xuan did not bother blocking them at this time. After all, in his opinion, the sword rays would vanish once he killed Duan Ling Tian.
“Die!” Mi Xuan roared, confident that Duan Ling Tian was about to die. In his opinion, celestials from Devata Realms would not be able to escape his soul attack.
‘Soul attack?’ Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow. The corners of his lips curled up into a faint smile. ‘I’ve waited a long time for this for a long time…’
With that, Duan Ling Tian’s eyes began to s.h.i.+ne with the colors of a rainbow. Following that, two beams of seven-colored energy shot out from his eyes before merging into one. This was Duan Ling Tian’s soul attack that had been imbued with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, the s.p.a.ce Sword Dao, and the law of s.p.a.ce.
From afar, it looked as though two meteors were set on the course of collision!
The two soul attacks collided and pushed against each other briefly before they suddenly vanished. However, a seven-colored energy remained.
“A-a prominent divine artifact?!” Mi Xuan exclaimed as his eyes widened in disbelief. Not only was he suppressed by Duan Ling Tian’s sword earlier, but Duan Ling Tian was even capable of casting a soul attack as strong as his with the help of the sword. Although he was not surprised that Duan Ling Tian possessed a divine artifact, he was thoroughly shocked that it was a prominent divine artifact. Only prominent divine artifacts could be used to cast both physical and soul attacks. Greed instantly flooded his heart. His strength would rise tremendously if he could get his hands on such an amazing prominent divine artifact.
However, in the next moment, Mi Xuan’s expression changed drastically as he cried out in fear.
Duan Ling Tian’s sword rays suddenly increased in strength and pierced Mi Xuan who did not bother defending against them. His body was riddled with wounds and holes. With this, he had no choice but to abandon Tang San Pao’s body.
“Duan Ling Tian! I won’t let you get away with this!” Mi Xuan roared.
How could Mi Xuan not be furious when he had expended a lot of effort to possess Tang San Pao’s body. He had used his one chance to fully take over a body on Tang San Pao. This meant that if he failed to sync completely with Tang San Pao’s body, he would no longer have a chance to fully possess someone else even if he could possess them.
“We’ll see if you’re capable of that.” Duan Ling Tian scoffed. Then, he said, “Huang’er, kill him!”
“Yes, master.” Huang’er nodded.
Swoos.h.!.+
The silhouette of a woman suddenly appeared next to the seven-color energy.
Similar to the members of the North Profound Alliance, Mi Xuan was shocked by this sight. He began to tremble as he stuttered, “A-an… An artifact soul?!”
A prominent divine artifact with an artifact soul was considered a precious treasure even in the Realms of G.o.ds.
At this time, Huang’er shot toward Mi Xuan as she wielded a dazzling seven-colored sword ray in her hand. It seemed as though she was capable of destroying everything and everyone who stood in her path at this moment.
“Duan Ling Tian, you can’t kill me!” Mi Xuan joined his palms together in the nick of time. Fog suddenly swirled around him before a green fire erupted. With that, a flash of red light appeared before he suddenly vanished into thin air.
Swoos.h.!.+
Huang’er’s attack naturally missed.
‘Amazing! Although he has suppressed his soul to that of a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor, he still managed to escape under such circ.u.mstances. As expected of an intermediate King of G.o.ds and the former Clan Leader of the Phantom Clan…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself. He knew it would be impossible for him to kill Mi Xuan now that Mi Xuan had escaped. Moreover, even if he could hold his own against Mi Xuan, he was not certain he would be able to kill Mi Xuan yet. Despite the restrictions on Mi Xuan, Mi Xuan was still an intermediate King of G.o.ds, after all.
When Duan Ling Tian s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Tang San Pao’s hole-ridden body, he thought to himself, ‘I don’t know if you willingly let Mi Xuan possess you. However, if you were unwilling, I’ll avenge you…’
At this time, the members of the North Profound Alliance looked at Duan Ling Tian in awe and reverence. It was only natural now that they found out their Supreme Guardian was not only a Nine Star G.o.d of War, but he also possessed a prominent divine artifact with an artifact soul. Moreover, just a moment ago, he had almost killed another Nine Star G.o.d of War.
After putting the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword away, Duan Ling Tian looked at Luo Yi Ming and said, “Leader Luo, thank you for taking care of me during this time. However, it’s time for me to leave the North Profound Alliance. However, I don’t think there’s a need for you to disband the alliance. After all, you were unaware of my ident.i.ty. Moreover, the Given Alliance won’t have a chance to vent their anger on you.”
Before Luo Yi Ming could respond, Duan Ling Tian had already teleported away.
“He left?”
Luo Yi Ming knew such a day would come so he was mentally prepared for it.
However, the other members of the North Profound Alliance were rather upset by Duan Ling Tian’s departure.
“I thought the Supreme Guardian would stay and lead us to the central region…”
“How naive! How could he stay with us? Even if he didn’t leave today, he would leave soon. With his innate talent, he would attain G.o.dhood soon enough. Even if he helps us to find a place in the central region, after he leaves, do you think the other alliances in the central region would sit back and do nothing?”
“Hey, did you hear the final part of the Supreme Guardian’s words before he left? Do you think he’s going to deal with the Given Alliance?”
“It sure sounds like it!”
“After the death of their second leader, the Given Alliance has been hunting for our Supreme Guardian. However, it seems like there’s nothing they can do now even if they find him!”
