War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

“It’s impossible?” Gan Ru Yan furrowed her brows when she heard Peng Lai’s words. “What do you mean? You’re so confident about your Palace Master’s ability?”

“It’s not about being confident or not,” Peng Lai said bitterly, “In the history of our Wandering Saint Palace, there has never been any Palace Master that had failed the Heavenly Tribulation… All Palace Masters of Wandering Saint Palace inherited a special technique to overcome the Celestial Ascension Tribulation!”

“What!?” Gan Ru Yan’s expression changed when she heard this. “So you’re saying Palace Master Yuwen will definitely pass the Heavenly Tribulation and break through to the next stage, becoming an Eminent Celestial?” She asked to confirm what she had just heard. When she saw Peng Lai nodding, she felt as though the world had darkened.. The stars and the moon seemed to have lost their shine. It seemed like the world was ending. However, after a few moments, her eyes lit up again as she thought to herself, ‘It’ll take at least a few days for Yuwen Hao Chen to pass the Celestial Ascension Tribulation… This means for the next few days, he won’t be able to make a move on us!’

Gan Ru Yan quickly turned to look at Duan Ling Tian, not caring if she was interrupting his and her sister’s private moment. She said anxiously, “Duan Ling Tian, you’ll have to get us out of this place while the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace is going through the Heavenly Tribulation! Once he overcomes the Heavenly Tribulation, it would be hard for us to escape.” Her tone turned even more urgent as she spoke.

Initially, Gan Ru Yan had thought of Shi Nan Feng, the Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace, as a threat since she did not think Duan Ling Tian was a match for him. However, now that she noticed Duan Ling Tian had broken through to the next level, she felt he was now on even ground with Shi Nan Feng.

Gan Ru Yan was unaware that although Duan Ling Tian had broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage Ninth Form, his power did not increase significantly compared to three years ago. Unless he used the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet, to suppress Shi Nan Feng, Duan Ling Tian was not evenly-matched with the Palace Master of the Great Spirit Palace!

“Overcome the Heavenly Tribulation?” Duan Ling Tian was momentarily stunned when he heard Gan Ru Yan’s words, as though he was thinking about something.

Ke’er pulled away from Duan Ling Tian’s arms when she heard Gan Ru Yan’s words. She asked her sister, “Sister, are you saying that the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace is going through the Celestial Ascension Tribulation?” She knew that if a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage passed the Heavenly Tribulation, he or she would become an Eminent Celestial. Moreover, she knew it would not take long before an Eminent Celestial would undergo Transcendence and ascend to the Devata Realm.

Yes.” Gan Ru Yan nodded solemnly as she looked at the sky. “You see the dark clouds that are flashing with purple and multicolored lights? That’s the Tribulation Clouds from the Celestial Ascension Tribulation… You can tell it’s the Tribulation Clouds from the Celestial Ascension Tribulation based on the five-color lightning bolts! Currently, the clouds are converging above the residence of Yuwen Hao Chen!” She shifted her gaze to Duan Ling Tian and said, “Now is a good time for you to take us away. The only person standing in our way is Shi Nan Feng, the Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace…”

Before Gan Ru Yan could finish speaking, Duan Ling Tian interrupted her. “Shi Nan Feng? The Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace?” He was, naturally, of the enmity between Shi Nan Feng and the Azure Cloud Mansion. For this reason, he was confused when he heard that the Palace Master of the Great Spirit Palace was standing in their way of escape. Moreover, he was also unaware that his identity as the Young Master of Azure Cloud Mansion had been exposed since a year ago.

At this time, Peng Lai recounted in detail everything that had happened so that Duan Ling Tian would understand what was going on.

“The last direct disciple of the Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace was the vanguard of the Human-Devil clan that invaded the Azure Cloud Mansion… However, he was killed by my father and another powerhouse from the Azure Cloud Mansion?” Duan Ling Tian was shocked when he learned about this.

In any case, the last direct disciple of the Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace was at the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. However, my father, along with another powerhouse, managed to kill him? Who’s the powerhouse from the Azure Cloud Mansion? When did father grow so strong?’ Many questions appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s mind at this moment. ‘Furthermore, the entire Human-Devil clan has found out that I’m the Young Master of the once-powerful Azure Cloud Mansion? They found out about my identity through my portraits that were previously circulated in the Lower Province?’ Duan Ling Tian finally realized how careless he had been. If only he had disguised himself, he would not be in this predicament!

Duan Ling Tian continued to think to himself as his eyes flashed coldly, ‘The Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace, Shi Nan Feng, wanted to kill me a year ago. However, he was afraid of the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace since he’s about to become an Eminent Celestial, that’s why he didn’t dare to act recklessly. All this time, he has been waiting outside the mansion… He had struck a deal with the Vice Palace Masters of Wandering Saint Palace as well. He would get to kill me if I tried to escape. Otherwise, he would let Yuwen Hao Chen deal with me?’

Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian’s attention shifted to something else. ‘My Sun Saint Origin feels unstable…’ He discovered that his Sun Saint Origin felt unstable and agitated like a playful child that was trying to escape because he or she has found something fun to play with. At the same time, he also discovered his perception of the world had become more profound. Although he had broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage and was able to slowly comprehend heaven and earth and form a vague connection, his comprehension was not very profound. However, he found his comprehension seemed to have deepened and increased a whole level when his Sun Saint Origin roiled in his body. The feeling was similar to when one’s a beginner and instantly reached the Fundamental Awareness Stage! ‘This must be due to the Tribulation Clouds from the Celestial Ascension Tribulation!”

It seems like the Sun Force that had fused with my Saint Origin has formed some kind of connection to the Tribulation Clouds…’ When Duan Ling Tian tried to investigate the connection, he sensed the Sun Force he had obtained from Elder Huo. The Sun Force’s power surpassed all the power from the Mundane Realm. After all, it came from the Devata Realm! For this reason, his understanding of the Sun Force was not too deep. All he knew was the Sun Force was extraordinary.

When Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation base was still low, his strength could rival those powerhouses who had a higher cultivation base than him because of the Sun Force that had fused with his Sun Saint Origin.

Outside the mansion. In the sky.

“Palace Master Yuwen is undergoing Heavenly Tribulation?” Shi Nan Feng’s attention was completely focused on the Tribulation Clouds that were converging above Yuwen Hao Chen’s residence. Naturally, he knew that Yuwen Hao Chen had successfully attracted the Celestial Ascension Tribulation! He had an undecipherable expression on his face as he thought to himself, “From now on, there’ll be another Eminent Celestial in the Human-Devil clan…”

Previously, although Yuwen Hao Chen had always been stronger than Shi Nan Feng, the gap in their strength was not that wide. In terms of status, they were on par since they were both Palace Masters from the Three Palaces and Six Halls. However, currently, Yuwen Hao Chen was going to become an Eminent Celestial. He was bound to become much stronger than Shi Nan Feng. Their statuses would no longer be the same. He would be inferior to Yuwen Hao Chen.

In the Human-Devil clan, as soon as one became an Eminent Celestial, one’s position would be elevated to that of a Patriarch.

When the people from the Three Palaces and Six Halls present on the scene discovered Yuwen Hao Chen had successfully attracted the Celestial Ascension Tribulation, they were in an uproar.

“Palace Master Yuwen is… about to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation?”

“Isn’t it obvious?”

“Oh my goodness! This is big news! I need to return and inform our Lord Hall Master of this!”

“I have to go return and report this to my Lord Hall Master as well!”

After a while, seven figures could be seen flying out of the Wandering Saint Palace’s estate. These people were from the remaining One Palace and Six Halls. It was clear that they had each returned to inform their Palace Master and Hall Masters about Yuwen Hao Chen successfully attracting the Celestial Ascension Tribulation. Moreover, there was no chance Yuwen Hao Chen would fail the Celestial Ascension Tribulation! He would undoubtedly become an Eminent Celestial in these few days. It would be an important occasion in the Human-Devil clan. This was definitely something they had to report to their superiors.

Soon after the seven people from the remaining One Palace and Six Halls left, Shi Nan Feng, the Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace, seemed to notice something. “Huh!?” He instantly shifted his gaze to the mansion in front of him.

Shi Nan Feng saw a purple figure pulling three women with him as another figure followed closely behind. His eyes were filled with killing intent as he muttered to himself, “Duan Ling Tian, the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion!”
