War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

‘It has not transformed into a green Innate Spiritual Root yet?’ Duan Ling Tian widened his eyes in shock when he heard Elder Huo’s words. ‘My Innate Spiritual Root hasn’t turned green but my speed of resonating with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy is already two times faster than before… Once my Innate Spiritual Root turns green, does it mean that my speed of resonating with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy will be even faster?’ Duan Ling Tian gasped when he thought of this.

He did not think there was such a huge difference between a green and yellow Innate Spiritual Root.

‘If the green Innate Spiritual Root is so amazing, won’t the blue, indigo, and violet Innate Spiritual Roots be even more amazing?’ Duan Ling Tian’s breathing quickened when he thought of this.

‘The method of devouring other people’s Innate Spiritual Roots with the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, to strengthen my Innate Spiritual Root is a success. In other words, as long as I devour enough Innate Spiritual Roots, my Innate Spiritual Root would be able to turn blue, indigo, and even the rare violet. The speed of resonating and absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy with a green Innate Spiritual root is at least several times faster than my previous speed. If I have the violet Innate Spiritual Root, the speed is going to be ridiculously fast! With the help of the violet Innate Spiritual Root and the time flow in the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, who in the Dao Martial Saint Land would be able to match my cultivation speed?!’ As Duan Ling Tian’s train of thoughts shifted its course, his eyes lit up. He felt as though his future was going to be very bright.

‘Naturally, to achieve all that, I’ll have to transform my Innate Spiritual Root into a violet Innate Spiritual Root!’ Duan Ling Tian finally calmed down after a long time as he recalled what had happened earlier. ‘Gu Chun possessed the green Innate Spiritual Root. By right, when I devoured his green Innate Spiritual Root with my yellow Innate Spiritual Root, my Innate Spiritual Root should have turned green. However, much of the energy from Gu Chun’s green Innate Spiritual Root had dissipated when I was devouring it. In fact, it’s likely that I only devoured half of the energy from his green Innate Spiritual Root. This must be why my Innate Spiritual Root did not turn green. Elder Huo said that my Innate Spiritual Root that was originally yellow has turned darker. I can sense that my speed of resonating and absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy is two times faster. It seems like the yellow Spiritual Root is further divided into several ranks. There are yellow and dark yellow Innate Spiritual Roots so there must be light yellow Spiritual Roots as well!” Duan Ling Tian thought long and hard about this.

“I really want to see what kind of expression Gu Chun would make when he discovers the speed of him absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy becomes slower than a tortoise. I’m sure even in his wildest dreams he did not think I would be able to devour his green Innate Spiritual Root!” Duan Ling Tian sneered as he looked at Gu Chun who was lying unconscious on the ground.

He did not feel remorse devouring Gu Chun’s Innate Spiritual Root. If he allowed Gu Chun to grow stronger, he would only become a threat to him in the future. It was better for him to kill such an enemy in the cradle.

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!

With just a thought, the 10,000 golden swords in the 10,000 Sword Territory flew around Gu Chun and left ten thousand cuts on his body. However, these cuts were superficial, and he did not bleed much.

“Ahhh!” Although the 10,000 sword rays only injured Gu Chun lightly, it was extremely painful. The sharp and intense pain woke Gu Chun up as he yelled.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian withdrew the 10,000 Swords Territory.

His figure, along with Gu Chun’s injured figure, instantly appeared before the Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciples’ eyes.

The Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciples could not help but gasp when they saw Gu Chun’s body that was covered in cuts. Their eyes were filled with dread when they looked at Duan Ling Tian again. They did not think Duan Ling Tian would be so ruthless! Although the wounds on Gu Chun’s body would not kill or maim him, the pain he felt must have been excruciating.

This could be seen from Gu Chun’s expression.

“With your strength, you think it’s enough to promise Li An that you’ll deal with me? You’ve overestimated your strength!” Duan Ling Tian looked at Gu Chun coldly before he entered the Tertius house he had snatched from him.

The crowd only shifted their attention to Gu Chun after Duan Ling Tian had closed the door.

When they saw the wretched expression on Gu Chun’s face and heard his scream, they shuddered.

“Duan Ling Tian’s really ruthless!”

“Unless it’s absolutely necessary, it’s better for us to stay out of his way. He’s a lunatic who doesn’t even fear Elder Li An!”

“You know what I think? Instead of Duan Ling Tian, he should call himself Crazy Duan!”

The crowd regained their senses and began to whisper among themselves. A hint of dread could be seen in their eyes as well.

From this moment onward, Duan Ling Tian’s name began to spread among the almost 10,000 Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciples.

Duan Ling Tian was naturally unaware of this. After he entered the Tertius house, he instantly went in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. “I’ve not been on the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda after it’s repaired. I’ll go and have a look now!”

Duan Ling Tian did not have an opportunity to enter the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda after it was repaired. Now that he found a place to stay in the Black Turtle Sanctum, he finally found a chance to enter the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.

“The Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy is really rich!” As soon as Duan Ling Tian entered the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, he instantly sensed how rich the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy was. The Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy was more than two times richer than the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the Tertius house that had three Spirit Gathering Formations.

Duan Ling Tian knew this was all thanks to the three Spirit Gathering Formations in the Tertius house. Since the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was located inside the Tertius house, its cultivation environment was naturally affected by the cultivation environment of the Tertius house. This was greatly beneficial to Duan Ling Tian.

“The fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda…” Duan Ling Tian began to look around the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. He saw fog everywhere he looked. Only an inkstone that was neither big nor small floated in the middle of the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.

There was a black ruler on top of the inkstone. The ruler was three-foot-long.

Duan Ling Tian could not look away from the ruler as soon as he saw it.

“This is the Celestial Supreme Treasure of the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, the Universe Ruler?” After a long while, Duan Ling Tian took a deep breath when he regained his senses. His gaze was burning as he looked at the ruler.

He had long heard about the seven treasures inside the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda from Elder Huo. The Celestial Supreme Treasure on the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was none other than the Universe Ruler.

According to Elder Huo, the Celestial Supreme Treasure would be higher in grade the higher the level it was on.

It was said that the War Heaven Spear that was stored on the seventh level of Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda could even conquer the universe. Just how strong was it to be able to conquer the universe?

“Although the Universe Ruler is not heavier than a sword, I don’t think I’ll be able to lift it yet…” Duan Ling Tian attempted to lift the Universe Ruler with all his might, but he only managed to move it slightly. He was already panting even though it had only moved a little.

“Apart from the Jasper Celestial Sword that I can wield easily thanks to the Sovereign Heart Sword, I’ll have to break through to the Saint Celestial Stage if I want to use the other Celestial Supreme Treasures in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda! Even if I break through to the Saint Celestial Stage, I might not be able to use the other five Celestial Supreme Treasures in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda! They are weapons used by Celestials after all!”

A Celestial was a powerhouse who was even stronger than Saint Celestial Stage powerhouses!

When a Saint Celestial Stage powerhouse had cultivated to the last form, the Ninth Form, Celestial Ascension Form, he would have to undergo the Celestial Ascension Calamity. He would only be considered as a true Celestial after he had undergone Transcendence to the Devata Realms!

Celestials were different from human. Their lives were infinitely long if they did not encounter any mishaps.

However, apart from the Celestials, in the Dao Martial Saint Land, the people whose cultivation base had already entered the Saint Celestial Stage’s Seventh Form, the Heaven Defying Form, also had an infinitely long life span. It was called the Heaven Defying Form because it defied the life span that had been determined by Heaven.

‘Now that I managed to transform my Innate Spiritual Root, coupled with the cultivation environment, my cultivation speed is going to be much faster!’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he sat cross-legged in the air and began to cast the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy.

It quickly circulated a great Qi cycle to raise his cultivation base, delighting Duan Ling Tian.

“What a fast cultivation speed! With my cultivation speed, I’ll be able to break through to the Intermediate Divine Saint Stage in just two years!” Duan Ling Tian felt extremely confident.

Naturally, two years referred to two years in the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. Two years in the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda were only two months outside of the pagoda.
