War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

“That’s not Ling Jue Yun! It’s his doppelganger!”

Soon enough, more and more people began to realize it was Ling Jue Yun’s doppelganger from the law of death’s Undead Doppelganger Profundity.

Many people, including the Heavenly Emperors of the various Devata Realms and high-ranking officials from the Title Temple branches, were shocked.

“How did he do it? I couldn’t tell it was his doppelganger!”

“Obviously it’d be difficult to tell if it’s the real thing or not. Otherwise, would Huang Quan An have fallen for it and cast the law of time’s Instant Vicissitudes Of Life on him? He was tricked as well!”

“What kind of method is this? Even someone stronger than a Six Star God of War who comprehends the law of death can’t pull this off so seamlessly, right?”

“He must have his own secret techniques!”

Nobody could tell it was Ling Jue Yun’s doppelganger until the very last moment. It was only revealed after Huang Quan An’s attack had entered the doppelganger. Let alone a Five Star God of War, even a Six Star God of War would have been able to cast such an indiscernible doppelganger. Moreover, under normal circumstances, a doppelganger was a separate entity. It was impossible for the doppelganger to receive the attack on behalf of Ling Jue Yun.

At this moment, the doppelganger’s red eyes returned to normal. It was as though Ling Jue Yun could freely switch out his doppelganger. “Do you have any other technique apart from the Instant Vicissitudes of Life?”

“Restrain!” Huang Quan An hurriedly cast the law of time’s Time Restraint Profundity as soon as Ling Jue Yun’s voice fell.

Before Ling Jue Yun could react, he was frozen in time again.

Huang Quan An narrowed his eyes and cast the Instant Vicissitudes of Life again.

As soon as the Instant Vicissitudes of Life entered Ling Jue Yun’s body, everyone saw his eyes turn red again. Similar to before, the Instant Vicissitudes of Life was rendered useless by Ling Jue Yun’s doppelganger.

“It’s useless,” Ling Jue Yun said frostily after the Instant Vicissitudes of Life lost its effect, “It doesn’t matter how perfect your timing is, your attack is useless against me.”

Huang Quan refused to believe Ling Jue Yun’s words and tried a couple more times. Alas, none of it worked.

“You should be exhausted by now, right?” Ling Jue Yun asked as he looked at the pale Huang Quan An. “The Instant Vicissitudes of Life is truly strange and powerful, but at the same time, it quickly exhausts one’s soul energy. It’s impossible for you to carry on like this. It’s my turn now.”

Just as Ling Jue Yun was about to make his move again, Huang Quan An cast the Time Restraint Profundity, freezing Ling Jue Yun again. This time, instead of using the Instant Vicissitudes of Life, he directly attacked Ling Jue Yun. However, before his attack landed, the doppelganger appeared again, blocking his attack.

“The offensive power of those who comprehend the law of time is really weak. You can even injure my doppelganger…” Ling Jue Yun said as he made his move again.

Huang Quan An’s law of time was completely useless against Ling Jue Yun and his doppelganger. He felt incredibly helpless at this moment.

In the end, although Ling Jue Yun had only displayed the strength of a top Five Star God of War, he managed to defeat Huang Quan An.

Even after Ling Jue Yun defeated Huang Quan An, the crowd, including Xu Kong Hai, still did not regain their senses. Yet another commotion broke out when they regained their senses.

“Ling Jue Yun won?”

“Ling Jue Yun is a monster! He defeated Huang Quan An even though he only used the strength of a top Five Star God of War! Didn’t everyone say it’s impossible for those who didn’t possess the strength of a Six Star God of War to defeat Huang Quan An?”

“That’s the case under normal circumstances. However, Ling Jue Yun is highly skilled in switching back and forth with his doppelganger, which should be a separate entity. Since he’s unaffected by the Instant Vicissitudes of Life, what else can Huang Quan An do?”

“Heavens! Did he perfect the law of death’s Doppelganger Profundity?”

Everyone, including the Heavenly Emperors and the high-ranking officials of the Title Temple branches, were curious about Ling Jue Yun’s technique. Those who comprehended the law of death, in particular, looked at Ling Jue Yun with bright eyes. After all, if they knew his secret, they would be able to improve their strength significantly.

After Ling Jue Yun defeated Huang Quan An, it was clear that no one with strength weaker than a Six Star God of War was a match for Ling Jue Yun. His doppelganger was too heaven-defying, after all; it was an incredibly powerful defense!

In a rare instance, Xu Kong Hai openly asked, “Ling Jue Yun, what secret technique did you use?”

Everyone looked at Ling Jue Yun with anticipatory expressions. They were curious about this matter as well.

“There’s no secret technique,” Ling Jue Yun replied indifferently, “This is something I inherited from my bloodline. More than 90% of my family members comprehend the law of death. It runs deep in our family…”

Many people were disappointed by Ling Jue Yun’s answer, and some even thought he was lying.

“Ling Jue Yun refused to disclose his secret technique because he’s afraid someone would steal it!”

“It runs deep in his family?”

Xu Kong Hai and some of the Heavenly Emperors narrowed their eyes in unison upon hearing Ling Jue Yun’s words. They instantly recalled a clan where more than 90% of their members comprehended the law of death. Their innate talent and speed of comprehending the law of death were heaven-defying.

“Your… Your family…” Xu Kong Hai stared at Ling Jue Yun as he stammered slightly, “That clan… Ling Jue Yun, are you from the Ling clan in the Divine Offering Land?”

“You’ve heard about the Ling clan?” Ling Jue Yun was taken aback. After all, before the Ling clan was annihilated, they had lived in seclusion and maintained a low profile in the Divine Offering Land.

“You’re really from the Ling clan?!” Xu Kong Hai’s eyes widened. When he regained his senses, he bowed and said, “Young Master Ling, I’m sorry for being disrespectful. I was unaware of your identity.”

Everyone, apart from a few Heavenly Emperors in the know, was shocked by Xu Kong Hai’s abrupt change in attitude. After all, Xu Kong Hai, the Vice Temple Master of the main Title Temple and a god, bowed to someone who was only as strong as a top Five Star God of War and even addressed him as Young Master! Even when Xu Kong Hai met the son of the Heavenly Emperor of the Given Heaven, he only addressed him as Junior Nephew.

‘It seems like Xu Kong Hai is quite familiar with the Ling clan,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself. After all, Xu Kong Hai’s abrupt change in attitude was too obvious. Moreover, it was clear that Xu Kong Hai was unaware that the Ling clan had been annihilated. Otherwise, Xu Kong Hai would not have behaved so humbly. He thought that Xu Kong Hai was really smart and knew how to act appropriately according to the situation.

Xu Kong Hai looked at Ling Jue Yun and said respectfully, “Young Master Ling, the Title Temple shared a close relationship with the Ling clan many years ago… There are even records of the Ling clan in the Title Temple. However, we lost connection with the Ling clan after they retreated into seclusion. Even so, the Title Temple has always maintained the rule that all due respect must be given to the Ling clan members.”

Needless to say, Xu Kong Hai’s revelation caused a commotion.

“Heavens! What kind of clan did Ling Jue Yun come from that even the Title Temple has to be respectful to them?”

“I’ve never heard of the Ling clan before…”

“Didn’t Vice Temple Master Xu mention the Divine Offering Land? The Divine Offering Land is a Realm of Gods!”

The crowd was even more shocked when they recalled Xu Kong Hai had mentioned the Ling clan was from the Divine Offering Land, a Realm of Gods.

“Young Master Ling, your achievements are truly extraordinary, especially when you’re not even 700 years old. You must be a direct descendant of the Ling clan, right?” Xu Kong Hai asked politely with a smile on his face.

Ling Jue Yun nodded slightly.

Those who were unaware of Ling Jue Yun’s age were shocked by these words.

“Ling Jue Yun is the same age as Duan Ling Tian and Su Li?”

“Heavens! He’s another monster!”

“However, this is to be expected, right? After all, he comes from the Divine Offering Land…”

“You’re right. The Divine Offering Land is a Realm of Gods, after all. The cultivation environment there is superior to all the Devata Realms. Moreover, the cultivation resources in prominent clans must be very good as well!”
