War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Although the high-ranking officials from the Fire Worship Sect had always known that the Saint Girl had a high status in the Sect Leader’s heart, they never thought the Sect Leader would not hesitate to personally make a move to search for the person who had tainted the Saint Girl in the Lower Province!

“Lord Sect Leader.” At this time, Hall Master Leng Yin of the Enforcement Hall stepped up to inform TangXuan about something he was not privy to. “Currently, all the Inter-province Transportation Formations in the Upper Province have stopped working. We can no longer travel to the Lower Province.”

Although Tang Xuan was the Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect, he had been in closed-door cultivation for a very long time. Therefore, he was unaware of some things that had happened in the Dao Martial Saint Land.

“The Inter-province Transportation Formations have stopped working? We can no longer travel to the Lower Province?” Upon hearing Leng Yin’s words, Tang Xuan frowned before he asked in a deep voice, “What happened?”

Following that, Leng Ying told Tang Xuan about the rumors that were going around in the Dao Martial Saint Land. He told Tang Xuan about how the Devil Clans from the Land of Exile might have invaded the Lower Province, causing the Inter-province Transportation Formations to stop working.

“If that’s the case, it’s indeed possible that the Devil Clans from the Land of Exile have invaded the Lower Province again!” Tang Xuan’s expression turned solemn after he heard Leng Yin’s explanation.

Subsequently, Tang Xuan looked at the two Vice Sect Leaders of the Fire Worship Sect. “Although we aren’t entirely sure that the Devil Clans have invaded the Dao Martial Saint Land again, we can’t dismiss the possibility that it has happened. Did you send the elders and disciples out to collect resources?”

“Lord Sect Leader, we have ordered men to collect many resources… Even if the Devil Clans manage to invade the Upper Province, the Fire Worship Sect will be able to sustain itself as we go to war with them,” one of the Vice Sect Leaders said hurriedly.

The other Vice Sect Leader nodded.

“Very well.” TangXuan nodded in satisfaction, and then, he turned to look at Leng Ying. He said coldly, “Hall Master Leng, bring me to Ru Yan! After visiting her, we shall meet the Fire Worship Sect’s Saint Girl who has been missing for so many years and her daughter with that unknown man from the Lower Province!”

When Tang Xuan mentioned the man from the Lower Province, not only anger rose from the depth of his heart, but the anger could be seen in his eyes as well. He could not imagine how angry ‘that person’ would be if he learned that the Saint Girl had been with another man and had even given birth to a daughter. Tang Xuan had experienced how terrifying ‘that person’ was a few decades ago. Until now, Tang Xuan could still vividly remember it.

“Yes, Lord Sect Leader,” Leng Ying answered respectfully and turned around to lead the way.

Before Tang Xuan left with Leng Yin, he glanced at Qing Huo and said, “Guardian Qing Huo, if Ru Yan is willing to cooperate, I’ll turn a blind eye to her previous mistakes and see it as her being protective of her sister! However, if she isn’t willing to cooperate, I’ll have to punish her according to the sect’s rules!”

When Qing Huo heard Tang Xuan’s words, he only smiled bitterly. He knew his direct disciple very well. She would not betray her sister’s secret unless she was given permission to do so.

“Senior Brother Qing Huo, you spoil your disciple too much.” Hong Yun sighed. Although Hong Yun might seem young, she was only slightly younger than Qing Huo. She was from the same generation as Qing Huo.

That day, news of Tang Xuan, the Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect, coming out from closed-door cultivation after breaking through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage began to spread in the sect before it spread across the Western Region, shocking everyone.

“Lord Sect Leader from the Fire Worship Sect has broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, the Celestial Ascension Form?”

“After the Great Guardian of the Fire Worship Sect had passed the Heavenly Tribulation and ascended, we finally have another powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in the sect?”

“Since Lord Sect Leader from the Saint Sect manages to break through, it means there are currently four powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in the Dao Martial Saint Land!”

In the Western Region, those who regarded the Fire Worship Sect as their Saint Sect and their religion were ecstatic upon learning that Tang Xuan had broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

As time passed, news spread out from the Western Region to the rest of the Dao Martial Saint Land.

For a time, the entire Dao Martial Saint Land was buzzing!

The Fire Worship Sect finally had a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!

It was huge news in the Dao Martial Saint Land.

One should know that prior to this, only the Black Kshetra Sect and Heaven Divination Sect had a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in their respective sect. The strongest person in the Fire Worship Sect was merely a powerhouse at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, and he was Tang Xuan, the Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect. Naturally, Tang Xuan was not just an ordinary powerhouse at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

In the Dao Martial Saint Land, in addition to being ranked fourth on the Supreme Saint Ranking, Tang Xuan was the strongest among those below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!

In the past, the powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage from Black Kshetra Sect and Heaven Divination Sect had intended to join forces and kill TangXuan, the Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect, before dividing the cultivation resources among themselves. However, Tang Xuan managed to escape even though the two powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage had joined forces! This was because Tang Xuan had mastered an extremely advanced movement Divine Ability. Moreover, it was an extremely rare escape-type Divine Ability. Once it was cast, it would be difficult for even powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage to catch him.

Naturally, after Tang Xuan escaped the two powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, he turned around and threaten them. If they dared to attack anyone from the Fire Worship Sect, he would break into their sects and attack the others in their sect with this escape-type Divine Ability!

With Tang Xuan’s strength and that mysterious escape-type Divine Ability, no one in the two sects, apart from the two powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, was a match for him. The two sects would definitely suffer a great loss if Tang Xuan decided to act on his words and fight to the end! Although the two powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage were very strong, it was impossible for them to protect everyone in their sects.

For this reason, the Fire Worship Sect remained safe and stood on even ground with the other two sects.

One could say the reason the Fire Worship Sect managed to stand firm until now was due to the mysterious escape- type Divine Ability that Sect Leader Tang Xuan mastered!

“Tang Xuan has broken through?”

“Damn it! He actually broke through to the Ninth Form of 仕le Saint Celestial Stage!”

“When his cultivation base was merely at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, he was already unafraid of our Great Oracle of the Heaven Divination Sect because of his movement Divine Ability… Now that he has broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, I’m afraid with his movement Divine Ability, he’s now a match for our Great Oracle!”

“I wonder where he found that movement Divine Ability… That Divine Ability is a lot more powerful than the high- grade movement Divine Abilities in the Dao Martial Saint Land!”

“Yes. If there’s a Divine Ability superior to all those high-grade Divine Abilities, it has to be that movement Divine Ability that Tang Xuan mastered!”

“Fortunately, the Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect didn’t share that movement Divine Ability with other people… Otherwise, even if just a few people from the Fire Worship Sect mastered that Divine Ability, they would be able to wreak havoc in the Dao Martial Saint Land!”

When word about Sect Leader Tang Xuan of the Fire Worship Sect had broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, the Celestial Ascension Form, reached the Black Kshetra Sect and the Heaven Divination Sect, a group of elders and disciples was shocked.

Many of them were worried Tang Xuan would seek revenge from them and look for trouble with their respective sect, the Black Kshetra Sect and the Heaven Divination Sect! In the past, Tang Xuan did not do so because he was not strong enough to defeat their sects’ powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage even with the help of the movement Divine Ability he had mastered. Things might change now since Tang Xuan was no longer at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. He had broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!

Except for Tang Xuan alone, no one in the Dao Martial Saint Land knew how he managed to obtain that mysterious movement Divine Ability! Only he knew that the movement Divine Ability he had mastered did not belong to the mundane realm, but it belonged to a realm higher than the mundane realm! This Divine Ability was passed to him by a mysterious powerhouse who appeared in the Fire Worship Sect several decades ago.

At that time, that mysterious powerhouse had asked Tang Xuan for a few favors. In return, he had passed this movement Divine Ability to Tang Xuan as a reward. With the help from that movement Divine Ability, he was able to become the strongest person among those below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in the Dao Martial Saint Land. Moreover, he also succeeded in keeping the Fire Worship Sect who had lost their powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage safe under the threat of the two sects.

All this was a secret that Tang Xuan kept to himself. He would never tell anyone about this. At the very least, he would not tell anyone from the Fire Worship Sect about this.

Time passed quickly. It was as slippery as sand, making it difficult to hold onto as it slipped through one’s fingers.

Inside the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, Duan Ling Tian did not know how much time had passed. He only focused on cultivating.

During this time, Duan Ling Tian had breakthroughs, met with obstacles, and continued to cultivate. With his lightning-fast cultivation speed thanks to his violet Innate Spiritual Root and the time flow on the fourth floor of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, what could obstruct him?

Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage? Duan Ling Tian already had one foot in the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage so it was not difficult for him to make a breakthrough!

Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage? Duan Ling Tian continued to break through it!

The Fourth Form of Saint Celestial Stage? It was a little difficult, but Duan Ling Tian managed to break through as well!

The Fifth Form of Saint Celestial Stage? So what if it was a lot harder, Duan Ling Tian still managed to make a breakthrough!

The Sixth Form of Saint Celestial Stage?

Duan Ling Tian who was hovering cross-legged in the air inside the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda suddenly opened his eyes and exclaimed, “I’ve broken through!”

In just an instant, a vast and powerful aura surged out of Duan Ling Tian’s body!
