War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

“The Rising Sky Mansion!” After Duan Ling Tian entered the Rising Sky Mansion district by stepping on the flying sword to zoom across the mountain range, his expression turned grave at once.

Due to the Young Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion, he did not have any good impression of the Rising Sky Mansion at all.

If he had sufficient strength, he would have rushed up to annihilate the Rising Sky Mansion and create an earth-shattering commotion by now before killing the Young Mansion Master in front of everybody in the Rising Sky Mansion.

‘Strength… Ugh, my strength is just too weak in the Dao Martial Saint Land’s Lower Province, let alone in the Upper Province,’ Duan Ling Tian sighed in his heart, feeling somewhat helpless.

With his cultivation base now, even if he strengthened his Sun True Origin and used his Jasper Celestial Sword, he would only be able to kill a powerhouse who was at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage at the most.

He would be no match for an Eminent Saint Stage powerhouse even if he used his Jasper Celestial Sword.

As a fourth-rated force, not only did the Rising Sky Mansion have Eminent Saint Stage powerhouses, but they also had powerhouses who had already exceeded the Eminent Saint Stage as well.

Right now, even if he rushed into the Rising Sky Mansion brandishing the Jasper Celestial Sword, he would most likely be killed before he managed to destroy more than a few people.

After entering the Rising Sky Mansion district and inquiring about some information regarding the Rising Sky Rankings’ Battle, he went to find a quiet, deserted and secluded valley and dug out a cave before staying in there.

Of course, it was the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda that he placed there. He then proceeded to enter the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda instead.

After some inquiries, he learned that although the Rising Sky Rankings would only be officially held a year later, the most talked about news since six months ago in the Rising Sky Mansion district was this topic.

The Rising Sky Rankings would be refreshed every fifty years. Being able to enter the Rising Sky Rankings would also be an inexplicable great honor.

Once you made it into the Rising Sky Rankings, no matter much of a nobody you were before this, your name would automatically spread out to every corner of the Rising Sky Mansion district. Even the few great fourth-rated forces beside the Rising Sky Mansion would know your name too.

Therefore, the Rising Sky Rankings was an outlet for anyone to make it big.

In addition to that, once you made it into the Rising Sky Rankings and proved your strength, you would also be invited to the Rising Sky Mansion. If you were willing, you would be able to enter the Rising Sky Mansion and become a genius disciple there. Furthermore, you would be nurtured by the Rising Sky Mansion and rise to the top from then on.

In history, 90% of the powerhouses who walked out of the Rising Sky Mansion had all been listed in the Rising Sky Rankings before.

It was exactly because of this that the Rising Sky Rankings was the most divine rankings in the Rising Sky Mansion district.

Even though there was still more than a year to go before the Rising Sky Rankings’ Battle would be held, a bustling commotion that heralded the Rising Sky Rankings’ Battle had already erupted in the district.

‘I can’t believe that the people in the Rising Sky Mansion district would place such a great emphasis on the Rising Sky Rankings! No wonder the Rising Sky Mansion would set a rule that only disciples who have entered the Rising Sky Rankings before standing a chance in becoming the Rising Sky Mansion Master! The Rising Sky Rankings are, without a doubt, the best touchstone. Only by successfully passing the test set by this touchstone can one be considered as a qualified genius!’ Duan Ling Tian mused to himself.

On the third level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, Duan Ling Tian sat cross-legged in the air and had his eyes shut, completely immersing his heart and mind in cultivating.

Somehow, gushes of dazzling golden brilliance rose from his body. As time continued to go by, it became even more intense, as though it transformed into a bright sun that was hanging on the lower sky.

The reason such an effect was taking place was that Duan Ling Tian was activating the Sun True Origin in his body.

Once the Sun True Origin was released, it would display some of the characteristics solely possessed by the bright sun.

When Duan Ling Tian was strengthening his Early Pristine Saint Stage cultivation base and the Sun True Origin in his body, Duan Ru Feng had also obtained the news regarding Duan Ling Tian in the faraway Azure Cloud Mansion.

“The Devilseal Tablet?” After learning that his son had obtained the Devilseal Tablet, even Duan Ru Feng could not help but narrow his eyes right away.

He was extremely familiar with the Devilseal Tablet. The reason he had left and never returned at that time, even to the extent of being separated from his wife and son ever since… It was all because of that Devilseal Tablet, and the powerful soul sealed inside it. That owner of the powerful soul was an extremely horrifying Devil Cultivator.

It was him who had made Duan Ru Feng the man he was today.

However, Duan Ru Feng did not feel grateful towards him but felt only hatred instead because he had tried to possess Duan Ru Feng’s body. Had it not been for his own strong determination, his body would have long been snatched away by the other party.

“In that case, it was also Tian’er who caused the Black Nether’s main soul to be annihilated then, wasn’t it?” Duan Ru Feng’s eyes lit up right away. He did not know about this at all before.

Even though he knew where the Devilseal Tablet was, due to the reason that he was also a Devil Cultivator himself, he did not dare easily go near the Devilseal Tablet if he did not have 100% confidence. Who knew whether the Devilseal Tablet would try to seal him or not?

At that time, he was very clear about just how powerful that Black Nether who had tried to snatch his body was.

Only a fragment of the soul remnant of the Black Nether had made him who he was today.

‘If the Black Nether that had escaped was not the split soul but the main soul at that time, I’m afraid my soul would’ve most likely been destroyed by him then. My body would’ve also become his already.’ The moment Duan Ru Feng thought about this, he counted himself lucky.

Because the Black Nether’s main soul was still being sealed by the Devilseal Tablet then, he was able to live by sheer luck and live to see today.

The Black Nether’s main soul had been destroyed and the soul remnants were affected in turn, which allowed him to completely snatch back the authority of his body. That time, he already knew that something must have happened to the Devilseal Tablet. Somebody might have touched the Devilseal Tablet, activated its energy and killed that Black Nether completely before the Black Nether’s main soul managed to attack him.

However, it had never crossed his mind that that person would be his own son, Duan Ling Tian!

‘That Black Nether’s strength was completely invincible and the main soul was extremely tyrannical. That time, I still recall wondering who was it who was able to block the Black Nether’s main soul and use the Devilseal Tablet to kill it. I can’t believe that it would actually turn out to be my own son!’ Duan Ru Feng mused in his heart.

One could say that whoever obtained the Devilseal Tablet had rescued him.

Otherwise, he might still be fighting for authority over his body with the Black Nether’s split soul now and would be unable to return to the Cloud Continent to be reunited with his wife and son.

He always wondered who his benefactor was, but he never expected to be his own son.

‘However, Tian’er’s current situation is a little troublesome now.’ The moment he recalled the situation that his son Tian’er was facing now, Duan Ru Feng could not help but frown. “Not long after that, I’m afraid the entire Dao Martial Saint Land’s Lower Province will want to look for him and snatch that Devilseal Tablet from him.”

When he learned that his son had obtained the Devilseal Tablet, he also knew that he was now being targeted by all sorts of powerhouses.

If his son dared to show himself, he would definitely be targeted by everyone!
