War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Since the Devil Cultivators from the Wandering Saint Palace were humans, and therefore, different from the Devils and Human-Devils, they could also cultivate the same way as humans on the Dao Martial Saint Land by absorbing Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy apart from devouring the vital essence of others.

Currently, Huang Wen Jing’s Innate Spiritual Root had improved to a violet one. For this reason, she was eager to return to the Wandering Saint Palace to cultivate. ‘I wonder when I’ll be able to see him again…’ She sighed to herself before she left. She had many admirers, but this is the first time a man had entered her heart without her even knowing when. If she was not reserved and shy, she would have followed him.

“I think he’s called… Duan Ling Tian,” Huang Wen Jing mumbled to herself. She still remembered Duan Ling Tian’s words from earlier.

“Who I kill is my business.”

“You can bring me back to the Wandering Saint Palace to be punished if you’re able to catch me!”

Huang Wen Jing had been furious when she heard Duan Ling Tian’s words earlier. However, currently, her eyes were filled with joy and her cheeks were flushed when she thought about the earlier incident. When she finally exited the stone forest, her expression had returned to her normal cold one.

“Miss Wen Jing.”

As soon as Huang Wen Jing exited the stone forest, three different voices called out to her. She was not surprised when she heard the voices. She turned to look at them calmly. She greeted the three people, “Elder He, Elder Lin, Elder Qiu.”

The three people in front of Huang Wen Jing are the families of the three disciples from the Wandering Saint Palace whom Duan Ling Tian had killed. They were powerhouses at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

The three elders did not dare to show their displeasure toward Huang Wen Jing’s indifferent and casual greeting. After all, not only was she the strongest powerhouse among the younger generation in the Wandering Saint Palace, but she was also the favorite and last disciple of the Palace Master of the Wandering Saint Palace!

The Palace Master was peerless in the Wandering Saint Palace. It was only natural that they did not dare to express their displeasure toward Huang Wen Jing.

“Elders, are you here for the purple-clad young man called Duan Ling Tian?” Huang Wen Jing asked.

Yes.” The three Wandering Saint Palace elders nodded as soon as Huang Wen Jing finished her sentence. Embers of hatred burned in their eyes. It seemed as though it was able to burn through anything!

“He has left,” Huang Wen Jing said.

“He has left?” The three elders from the Wandering Saint Palace were stunned by Huang Wen Jing’s revelation.

Previously, they had entered the ruin that was suspected to be left behind by a Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master. However, after they discovered there were 81 entries that led to different destinations, they decided to retreat and wait outside. They were worried they would miss the chance to capture and kill Duan Ling Tian if they entered one of the passageways. While they were waiting, they had gathered information from eyewitnesses about the deaths of their sons and grandsons. What they found out was their sons and grandsons were killed by someone called Duan Ling Tian who was even stronger than Huang Wen Jing.

Yes.” Huang Wen Jing nodded. “I followed him in… However, after he found out that there are eighty-one entries, he decided to retreat and leave. My guess is he decided to leave because he’s afraid that Elder Lin, Elder Qiu, and Elder He might seek revenge from him.” Huang Wen Jing’s expression did not change as she lied about what happened, fervently hoping that Duan Ling Tian would not encounter the three elders from the Wandering Saint Palace.

Although Duan Ling Tian was stronger than her, she did not think he would be able to defeat the three elders from the Wandering Saint Palace at once.

“He left a while ago?” The three elders became anxious when they heard Duan Ling Tian had left.

“Which way did he go, Miss Wen Jing?” The middle-aged man, the father of He Sen Jie, asked hurriedly.

The other two people remained silent, but it was obvious they were also eager to know where Duan Ling Tian had gone.

“I don’t know which direction he had left in since I didn’t follow him. Moreover, his speed is so fast that I’m certain not many people noticed when he left,” Huang Wen Jing replied. She lied again to throw the elders from the Wandering Palace off Duan Ling Tian’s trail.

“Elders, I’ll take my leave to the Wandering Saint Palace first.” As soon as she finished speaking, Huang Wen Jing made her way north in the direction of the Wandering Saint Palace that was located in the Human-Devil Saint City.

This is all I can do to help you. I hope we’ll have a chance to meet again in the future,’ Huang Wen Jing thought to herself with a sigh as she traveled back.

The three elders from Wandering Saint Palace would not expect the last disciple of the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace would lie to them since he had injured her as well. After a while, they finally left as well. Initially, they had planned to wait and ambush Duan Ling Tian when he came out. However, since he had left, it was useless for them to stay.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian was, naturally, unaware of what was happening outside. He was currently zipping through the passageways he had missed before. He devoured the Innate Spiritual Roots of the Devils and Human-Devils he encountered to improve his own Innate Spiritual Root. His Innate Spiritual Root that was light violet was gradually turning darker. Based on the speed it was turning darker and darker, he estimated it would not take long before his Innate Spiritual Root improved to the next level. Apart from that, he also obtained many Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapons from his killing spree. He put all of them into his Spatial Ring. Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapons that were considered rare in the past could be found in abundance here.

“I can give these Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapons to father, mother, and little Fei’er when we reunite…” It was obvious Duan Ling Tian was collecting so many Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapons because he planned to give them to his family and friends in the future. It might not be useful to him, but it would be incredibly useful to them.

Let’s continue!’ Duan Ling Tian entered another passageway.

“What are you doing? We agreed to break the formation together and share the spoils… You plan to cast me aside after I’ve served my purpose?”

Duan Ling Tian heard a familiar voice before he exited the passageway.

This voice sounds really familiar,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he tried to recall the owner of the voice. He finally recalled the voice belonged to Huang Qi Ling, the disciple from Wandering Saint Palace whom he met before he entered the stone forest! At that time, Huang Qi Ling had tried to protect him when he was targeted by the three disciples from the Wandering Saint Palace. For this reason, he had a good impression of Huang Qi Ling and thought that Huang Qi Ling had the qualities of a good friend.

This was why Duan Ling Tian moved toward Huang Qi Ling when he saw him being surrounded and seemed to be in grave danger.

“Casting you aside after you’ve served your purpose? Well said! However, what can you do even if that’s our intention?” One of the Human-Devils said smugly.

“The Wandering Saint Palace won’t let you go if you kill me!” Huang Qi Ling said.

“Wandering Saint Palace? If it isn’t for your status in the Wandering Saint Palace, we wouldn’t even join forces with you. You can only blame yourself for being outnumbered!”

“The Wandering Saint Palace is filled with human freaks. You’re not deserving to be part of the Devil Clans!!”

The few Human-Devils began to rush toward Huang Qi Ling as soon as they finished speaking.

Huang Qi Ling’s expression changed immediately and he quickly went into a defensive stance. Although he was somewhat strong, it was unfortunate that he was no match for the combined forces of the three Human-Devils. In just a few seconds, he was pushed to the brink of death.

Could this be the day I die?’ Huang Qi Ling thought to himself with a hint of unwillingness.

A scoff could be heard at the moment the three Human-Devils were about to kill Huang Qi Ling.

All of them were taken aback.

Swoosh!

A sword sound whistled past the Human-Devils’ ears. In the next moment, Huang Qi Ling was shocked by the scene before him.

The Human-Devils who were about to kill him began to bleed at the spaces between their brows and fell dead soon after.

Elementary Devouring Tactic!’ Duan Ling Tian did not show himself after devouring the Human-Devils’ Innate Spiritual Roots. He continued on his way and left the treasures from the Human-Devils to Huang Qi Ling.

“Brother Ling Tian?” Although Duan Ling Tian did not appear, Huang Qi Ling could tell it was him based on the sound of the sword whistling in the air.
