War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

The Almighty Wind Celestial Emperor, Kong Fen, did not feel suspicious about the message from his master, Yang Yun Xiao, the Heavenly Emperor of the Floating Heaven. He trusted Yang Yun Xiao because Yang Yun Xiao had protected him despite the risk of offending Feng Qing Yang in the past. Therefore, he quickly made his way back to the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven after receiving the message.

After Kong Fen left the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven, he could only wander the Floating Heaven alone. He could not join any of the heaven-grade forces in the Floating Heaven since he was well-known among higher-ranking officials in heaven-grade forces as the second true disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Floating Heaven. It would have been better if he could temporarily join one of the heaven-grade forces so he could cultivate in a better environment. However, since he was afraid Feng Qing Yang would find him if he did that, he could only keep to himself. Over the past 200 years, he had grown incredibly frustrated by his poor cultivation environment. Therefore, as soon as his master said he could return to the Heavenly Palace since Feng Qing Yang had decided to let the matter go, he rushed to the nearest transportation site immediately.

It did not take long for Kong Fen to arrive at the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven. As soon as he returned, he looked for Yang Yun Xiao. He said apologetically, “Master, I’m sorry for making you worry…”

Yang Yun Xiao looked at Kong Fen and let out a sigh. “Kong Fen, you wouldn’t have to suffer if you didn’t simply indulge your son back then…”

Kong Fen was taken aback by Yang Yun Xiao’s ominous words. They were clearly not in line with the message Yang Yun Xiao had sent earlier. The foreboding feeling in his heart grew stronger and stronger; he did not hesitate and turned into a gust of wind to flee.

Following that, Kong Fen felt a powerful energy pressing against him from all directions before he could successfully escape, easily restraining him. He asked, bewildered, “Master, why?”

Kong Fen would have lived in vain for so many years if at this point he still could not figure out that Yang Yun Xiao had lied to him to lure him back to the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven.

“Kong Fen, I have no choice.” Yang Yun Xiao sighed. “Feng Qing Yang is too strong. When he brought Duan Ling Tian to the Heavenly Palace today, he severely injured me before he even said anything. When he discovered you’d left the Heavenly Palace, he demanded I bring you to him. Otherwise, I can only wait here for my death or flee with the members of the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven. He has already attained godhood and can kill me with just a wave of his hand. I hope you don’t blame me. If you need to blame someone, you should blame your son…”

“Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang has attained godhood?” Shock flashed in Kong Fen’s eyes as fear crept into his heart. He did not expect the rumor about Feng Qing Yang to be true; he also did not expect Feng Qing Yang would threaten his master just because of Duan Ling Tian. After all, Feng Qing Yang and his master were on good terms.

“Why is he like that? Your… Is your friendship with him that insignificant?” Kong Fen was unresigned even if he knew there was no way for him to escape once his master had caught him. He felt unwilling; he wanted to live!

“Friendship?” Yang Yun Xiao shook his head and said, “We’re mere acquaintances. At first, I assumed he wouldn’t do anything extreme since we’re acquainted. Alas, I overestimated our relationship and underestimated his care for his true disciple. He highly values and cares about Duan Ling Tian. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have acted that way.”

Upon hearing these words, Kong Fen fell completely into despair.

…

After returning to the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, Duan Ling Tian stayed by Feng Qing Yang’s side to learn from Feng Qing Yang.

“Since you have the Sovereign Heart Sword as your foundation and have roughly similar experiences as me, it shouldn’t be difficult for you to comprehend the law of destruction. However, since the law of space you comprehended is one of the Four Supreme Laws just like the law of destruction, you can continue focusing on the law of space. If you have spare time, you can comprehend the law of destruction…”

“Yes, master,” Duan Ling Tian responded. He knew Feng Qing Yang’s advice was for his own good. He knew not to bite off more than he could chew.

“Regarding the matter of your wife being trapped in the Realms of Gods… When the passages between the Realms of Gods and the Devata Realms reopen, I’ll try my best to help you with all my might,” Feng Qing Yang continued to say.

Duan Ling Tian’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing Feng Qing Yang’s words; a sense of warmth surged in his body. “Thank you, master.”

Feng Qing Yang was aware that Duan Ling Tian’s wife and the Young Master of the Yun Clan, Yun Qing Yan, were from extraordinary clans in the Divine Offering Land, a Realm of Gods, and yet, Feng Qing Yang was still willing to help him. How could he not feel touched?

Following that, Feng Qing Yang swiftly changed the topic. “In regards to the laws alone, without considering other factors, it’s best to focus on completely mastering one law before you move on to another one. However, it’s rather different if you consider the Sword Dao. For example, the law of destruction allows me to use my Sword Dao to its full potential. I have to admit it’s still extremely deadly even when used with the law of earth. However, it still can’t compare to my fused profundities from the law of destruction. I dare say that in all the Devata Realms, those who have the same level of comprehension as me in comprehending the other three Supreme Laws are at least 30% weaker than I am in regard to offensive strength. This is all because of my Sword Dao. I will teach you everything I know, but what you can understand depends on your capability. If you can fully grasp my Sword Dao, it’ll increase the force of your law of space up to 30%…” He was very confident when he spoke.

Duan Ling Tian could not help but inhale sharply upon hearing Feng Qing Yang’s words. His eyes widened. “It’ll increase by 30%”

Duan Ling Tian was no longer the naive young man who just ascended to the Devata Realm. He was a Celestial Emperor now, and his knowledge had expanded as well. The profundities of a law played a rather huge part in contributing to one’s overall strength. Usually, it would be considered a feat if one could raise one’s strength by 10% through other techniques. How could he not be moved when he heard his master say that his strength would improve by 30% as long as he fully grasped the Sword Dao? With such an increase, he would be able to crush opponents who were evenly matched with him.

“Thank you, master,” Duan Ling Tian expressed his gratitude immediately. He felt he could see a ray of hope now. After all, his main focus was to grow stronger. Previously, he could only raise his strength by further comprehending the law of space by using the Supreme Powerhouse Divinity. He was delighted he found another way to increase his strength.

“You may return now… Rest for a few days. I’ll teach you my Sword Dao the next time you come over,” Feng Qing Yang said.

“Yes, master,” Duan Ling Tian responded and bade farewell to Feng Qing Yang before he left.

After Duan Ling Tian left. He spoke about Feng Qing Yang’s Sword Dao to the World Cleansing Divine Water in his Little World.

The World Cleansing Divine Water stayed silent for a moment when it heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. Then, it said, “If what he said is true, then, he’s truly a peerless genius. A person like him is as rare as a phoenix feather even in the Realms of Gods. A person with such an innate talent is generally considered to be imminent supreme powerhouses in the Realms of Gods.”

Duan Ling Tian was shocked. “Didn’t you say there are only two ways for one to become a supreme powerhouse? First is to completely master one of the Four Supreme Laws and fuse all its profundities. Second is to obtain one of the Five Divine Elements and evolve it to its ultimate form?”

“It’s true one can become a supreme powerhouse with those two ways,” the World Cleansing Divine Water said, “However, there’s another way as well. That’s to create and comprehend your own Dao. It sounds vague to say one should comprehend one’s Dao, but it’s actually not the case at all. Among the laws between heaven and earth, apart from the law of the five elements, the derivative laws, and the Four Supreme Laws, there are also the law of light, the law of darkness, and the law of destruction. You know that, right?” the World Cleansing Divine Water asked.

“Yes,” Duan Ling Tian responded. He naturally knew these laws.

“Between heaven and earth, all of those who became supreme powerhouses through comprehending their own Dao had either comprehended the law of destruction, law of light, or law of darkness. The other way to become a supreme powerhouse is to comprehend one’s Dao. Since your master has comprehended the law of destruction and his own Dao, he has a high chance of becoming a supreme powerhouse… However, he’ll have to rely on himself to live up to his full potential,” the World Cleansing Divine Water said, “Since he’s willing to teach you the Sword Dao, this proves you’re very important to him… However, it’s extremely difficult to fully grasp a Dao created by another person. It’d be shocking if you can even grasp 70% of it. However, if you’re gifted, there’s a possibility of you forming your own Dao by learning his Sword Dao.”
