War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Lin Dong Lai was not disappointed or discouraged by Duan Ling Tian’s rejection. He had already expected this before he came, after all.

Although the Lin clan in the Divine Wood Mansion was a supreme-rank clan, it was only an ordinary supreme-rank clan. Although it had Supreme Gods, their strength was relatively average. As such, the Lin clan was among the weakest supreme-rank forces with Supreme Gods.

The Lin clan was naturally stronger than those supreme-rank forces without Supreme Gods. Those kinds of supreme-rank forces were regarded as supreme-rank forces by most people, but to Lin Dong Lai and those from supreme-rank forces with Supreme Gods, they could be regarded as real supreme-rank forces. They were anachronous supreme-rank forces at most.

Lin Dong Lai was rather relaxed as he flew back after completing his task. He muttered under his breath, “Well, they asked me to recruit Duan Ling Tian, and I did. It has nothing to do with me if Duan Ling Tian rejects the invitation. I’ve done everything I can…”

After a moment, Lin Dong Lai’s eyes lit up as he muttered, “If I rush back now, I might be able to watch a show. They should start fighting soon, right?”

…

Duan Ling Tian was unaware of Lin Dong Lai’s thoughts. He returned to the flying ship with Liu Feng Gu.

Everyone’s gazes were different when they looked at Duan Ling Tian. After all, he had been invited to join a supreme-rank force. Moreover, it was not an anachronous supreme-rank force; it was a supreme-rank force with more than one Supreme God!

The Lin clan was at the top of the food chain in the Divine Wood Mansion. The Divine Wood Mansion was also superior to the Seven Mansions. In comparison to the Divine Wood Mansion, the Seven Mansions were like the boondocks.

“Incredible! A supreme-rank clan took the initiative to invite Duan Ling Tian to join them!”

“Most importantly, it’s not an anachronous supreme-rank force! It’s a supreme-rank force with Supreme Gods. Moreover, the benefits they offered him are very good!”

“Elder Lin said earlier that if Duan Ling Tian joins them, the benefits he’ll receive will be twice as much as Lin Yuan’s. Clearly, the Lin clan has high regard for Duan Ling Tian!”

Most young disciples from the Pure Yang Sect were unaware of how highly coveted Duan Ling Tian was now. However, the elders and a few young disciples knew very well about it. As such, they were not surprised at all by the Lin clan’s invitation. In fact, they even felt that Duan Ling Tian could do better than joining the Lin clan. There was no one as talented as Duan Ling Tian in the Lin clan, after all.

Duan Ling Tian had achieved so many feats despite being under 3,000 years old. He was a rare talent even among the prime supreme-rank forces, let alone those strong supreme-rank forces.

“With Duan Ling Tian’s current achievements, the Lin clan from the Divine Wood Mansion won’t be the only supreme-rank force to extend an invitation. I can already see that our Pure Yang Sect will be receiving many guests in the future,” an elder from the Pure Yang Sect said with a sigh.

“Duan Ling Tian is a rare talent, after all. The Pure Yang Sect won’t be able to keep him forever. He can only grow in one of those powerful supreme-rank forces.”

“If Duan Ling Tian continues to progress at this rate, he may be able to become an Emperor of Gods before reaching 10,000 years old!”

“He also has a chance of becoming a Supreme God in the future.”

The elders of the Pure Yang Sect were not stingy with their praise.

After listening to those words, the young disciples who were clueless finally realized how highly coveted Duan Ling Tian had become. Their gazes changed again when they looked at Duan Ling Tian.

Even Yang Qian Ye could not help but glance at Duan Ling Tian at this moment.

At the same time, Yuan Han Jin, who noticed the direction of Yang Qian Ye’s gaze, said through Voice Transmission, “Qian Ye, this isn’t anything impressive. As long as you work hard, coupled with your time in the Supreme Divine Mansion, you’ll receive even more invitations from the supreme-rank forces in the future. One day, you’ll definitely be able to trample on Duan Ling Tian.”

Yang Qian Ye only responded perfunctorily to Yuan Han Jin’s attempt to console him. His biggest goal right now was not to join a supreme-rank force but to kill Yuan Han Jin. As long as he could kill Yuan Han Jin, it did not matter to him if Yuan Ping Sheng, Yuan Han Jin’s father and the founder of the Ping Sheng faction, killed him. In fact, he felt it was worth it to lose his life as long as he was able to kill Yuan Han Jin.

At the same time, Lan Xi Lin, who was standing in a corner, glanced at Duan Ling Tian with a complicated gaze. At the same time, he felt fortunate that he did not continue to provoke Duan Ling Tian. He thought to himself, ‘I really can’t provoke him again in the future…’

…

Duan Ling Tian spent his time during the journey back cultivating with his eyes closed. No one disturbed him anymore. He only woke up when they finally arrived at the Pure Yang Sect.

After disembarking from the flying ship, Duan Ling Tian followed Zhen Ping Fan back to Cloud Peak Island and returned to his cultivation ground.

Before parting ways with Zhen Ping Fan, Duan Ling Tian said, “Elder Zhen, please help me ask Elder Ye about the Supreme Divine Mansion. I really want to know when I can enter that place. As for my safety, you don’t have to worry. I’m fully confident about surviving in that place.”

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes shone with confidence and determination. Since Yang Qian Ye survived in the Supreme Divine Mansion that tested one’s will, he was certain he would be able to survive as well. He did not think his will was weaker than that of Yang Qian Ye. It was his will that drove him throughout his journey.

“Alright, I’ll urge Junior Uncle Ye to speak to Senior Uncle Yuan as soon as possible, and I’ll notify you immediately when I receive news,” Zhen Ping Fan said. He was not worried about Duan Ling Tian not being able to survive in the Supreme Divine Mansion anymore. He was convinced when he saw Duan Ling Tian’s confidence and determination.

Zhen Ping Fan was naturally referring to Yuan Ping Sheng, the founder of the Ping Sheng faction, when he mentioned ‘Senior Uncle Yuan’.

Duan Ling Tian nodded. Although he felt restless and could not wait to enter the Supreme Divine Mansion, there was nothing he could do but wait now. Not long after Zhen Ping Fan, his restlessness also faded away as he thought about his experience during the Seven Mansions Feast. It felt like a lifetime away now.

“I only possessed the strength I had when I first arrived in the Profound Jade Mansion, it would’ve been impossible for me to rank in the top three, let alone rank first. Fortunately, I had timely help from the Five Divine Elements and managed to completely stabilize my cultivation base in the early stage of the Seven Mansions Feast. However, even after that, at most, I have a chance to rank second or third. It’s all thanks to Elder Ye, who showed me his Sword Dao Principle, that I was able to rank first. After studying his Sword Dao Principle for two days, I was inspired and was able to raise the synergy between me and my doppelganger. Not only that, but my law of space improved as well, and I was able to comprehend the Double Teleportation Profundity.”

It was not an exaggeration to say that Ye Chen Feng was critical to Duan Ling Tian’s victory in the Seven Mansions Feast. Needless to say, the Five Divine Elements also played a huge role in his victory. If he did not completely stabilize his cultivation base in the realm of an intermediate Lord of Gods, even with Ye Chen Feng’s help, he would not have been able to rank first in the Seven Mansions Feast.

After a moment, Duan Ling Tian’s drifted to another topic.

“Supreme-rank forces… If those powerful supreme-rank forces come to recruit me, what should I do?”

Duan Ling Tian did not know much about the powerful supreme-rank forces in Profound Energy Land. His knowledge about them only grew after Zhen Ping Fan mentioned them.

There were more than a dozen powerful supreme-rank forces in the Profound Energy Land, and they had been in the Profound Energy Land for many years. In fact, some of them were not any weaker than prime supreme-rank forces. The only advantage the prime supreme-rank forces had were the support of supreme powerhouses. All these powerful supreme-rank forces needed to become prime supreme-rank forces was the support of a supreme powerhouse.

“Hmmm, I wonder what the Pure Yang Sect will reward me with? They said they’ll giveme something useful. I hope that’s really the case. After all, I’m different from most intermediate Lords of Gods. What’s useful to them might not be useful to me…”

For example, if the Pure Yang Sect gave Duan Ling Tian divine pills that he had already taken before, they would be useless even if they were Limit Divine Pills. After all, divine pills would lose their efficacy if one had consumed them before.

…

A few days later.

Duan Ling Tian finally received a Voice Transmission from Zhen Ping Fan. He had been expecting good news so it was unexpected when he heard that he had no chance of entering the Supreme Divine Mansion.

“I went with Junior Uncle Ye to have a look at the Supreme Divine Mansion. We’ve confirmed that only rudimentary Lords of Gods can enter that place now. It’s impossible for intermediate Lords of Gods to enter that place.”

“Initially, Yuan Han Jin was rather uncooperative. However, in the end, he could not withstand the pressure from Junior Uncle Ye so he relented and told us where the Supreme Divine Mansion is located.”

Duan Ling Tian only heard Zhen Ping Fan’s first Voice Transmission.

He could not enter the Supreme Divine Mansion due to the restriction on cultivation.

In fact, Duan Ling Tian had thought about the possibility of this happening, but he thought the possibility was small. After all, he learned from Zhen Ping Fan that without the continuous supply of energy from a supreme powerhouse, the Supreme Divine Mansion would continue to deteriorate until it crumbled.

…

Meanwhile, seeing that Duan Ling Tian did not reply for quite a while, Zhen Ping Fan said in an attempt to console Duan Ling Tian, “Duan Ling Tian, it’s just a Supreme Divine Mansion. Don’t think about it so much. With your talent and comprehension skills, even without entering the Supreme Divine Mansion, you’ll be able to improve quickly. Moreover, the sect is going to provide you with many resources after this. Most importantly, there’ll be no lack of powerful supreme-rank forces coming to recruit you. After you join a powerful supreme-rank force, with your ability, you don’t have to worry about not having resources.”

Zhen Ping Fan felt like it was enough so he continued to say, “Moreover, your achievements at this age are more than enough to make 99% of the people in the Profound Energy Land feel envious. It’s really not a big deal that you can’t enter the Supreme Divine Mansion.”
