War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

After leaving the mountain range, Duan Ling Tian wandered around the area while keeping an eye on the ranking list. There were no changes in Lang Chun Yuan鈥檚 points so far as the points of the participants rapidly changed. After some time, he discovered that some of the names on the ranking list had disappeared. Clearly, those participants had died; they were either killed by other participants or the inhabitants of Destiny Canyon.

鈥楾he Destiny Canyon is just like a smaller Trial of Gods鈥︹€?/p>

After wandering for about half a day, Duan Ling Tian ran into another person. Based on the other person鈥檚 cautious behavior, he knew the other person was not an inhabitant of Destiny Canyon like the villagers and bandits he encountered previously.

鈥業 wonder how strong he is鈥?Should I test his strength?鈥?/p>

Duan Ling Tian was aware that some of the advanced Emperors of Gods from the various Divine Kingdoms were demi Supreme Gods. Apart from some of them, most of them were no match for him. After considering it for a while, he decided to test the strength of the advanced Emperor of Gods. After all, even if the other person was a demi Supreme God and was stronger than him, it would not be a problem for him to escape with his Double Teleportation Profundity from the law of space. The Double Teleportation Profundity鈥檚 speed was even faster than the law of wind, after all.

Swoosh!

When Duan Ling Tian casually flew past the cautious advanced Emperor of Gods, who was a middle-aged man, he recognized Duan Ling Tian immediately.

鈥業t鈥檚 Duan Ling Tian from the Righteous Divine Kingdom!鈥?/p>

The middle-aged man knew that Duan Ling Tian was the only rudimentary Emperor of Gods from the Righteous Divine Kingdom to participate in the Battle of the Divine Kingdoms. He also knew that Duan Ling Tian was capable of killing advanced Emperors of Gods despite only being a rudimentary Emperor of Gods. He had previously Duan Ling Tian鈥檚 recordings hence he was aware of these things. He was not confident about his victory if he fought Duan Ling Tian although Duan Ling Tian鈥檚 opponent at that time was weaker than him and did not use his prominent divine artifact with a complete artifact soul.

鈥業 better not provoke him since I might not be able to kill him鈥?He wouldn鈥檛 be so famous if he鈥檚 weak鈥︹€?/p>

The middle-aged man knew that many people doubted Duan Ling Tian鈥檚 strength. In fact, many advanced Emperors of Gods from his Divine Kingdom, the Crimson Origin Divine Kingdom, even boasted that they would kill Duan Ling Tian if they ran into him in Destiny Canyon.

鈥淲ang Jin鈥?It鈥檚 me.鈥?/p>

Just as the middle-aged man was about to leave, he heard a familiar voice calling out to him.

A gust of wind blew past, and a figure appeared.

鈥淟iu Yi?鈥?the middle-aged exclaimed, slightly surprised.

Similar to Wang Jin, the middle-aged man, the newcomer, Liu Yi, was also from the Crimson Origin Divine Kingdom. He and Wang Jin were also on par with each other.

Liu Yi smiled as he looked at the purple-clad young man who was flying leisurely in the distance and said, 鈥淲ang Jin, that鈥檚 Duan Ling Tian from the Righteous Divine Kingdom. Why don鈥檛 we join forces and kill him?鈥?/p>

Wang Jin was naturally moved by Liu Yi鈥檚 suggestion, but he still remained cautious. However, he soon remembered that Duan Ling Tian was just a rudimentary Emperor of Gods. He said, 鈥淲e won鈥檛 get points for killing him. The rewards would be doubled, but they鈥檙e useless to us鈥︹€?/p>

The rewards they would receive for killing someone with a lower cultivation base were negligible. Moreover, since the Battle of the Divine Kingdoms had just started, Duan Ling Tian would not have gained many points, which meant that they would not gain points from him.

Liu Yi was briefly stunned by Wang Jin鈥檚 words. Then, he said with a wry smile, 鈥淚 forgot that he鈥檚 just a rudimentary Emperor of Gods鈥︹€?After a moment, his eyes flashed as he said, 鈥淟et me check how many points he has accumulated so far. He鈥檚 still worth killing if he has accumulated a lot of points鈥︹€?/p>

After a moment, the corners of Liu Yi鈥檚 lips twitched when he saw Duan Ling Tian鈥檚 name at the bottom of the ranking.

鈥淒uan Ling Tian is really pathetic. He only gained one point?鈥?/p>

Upon hearing Liu Yi鈥檚 words, Wang Jin completely discarded the idea of making a move on Duan Ling Tian. Even if they could defeat Duan Ling Tian after joining forces, the cons outweighed the pros. They might even be injured, which would affect them negatively if they ran into other participants.

鈥淚t鈥檚 not worth it鈥?Let鈥檚 search for another target,鈥?Liu Yi said, losing interest as well after discovering they would not gain anything by killing Duan Ling Tian.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian finally discovered Liu Yi鈥檚 presence.

鈥楾here are two of them?鈥?/p>

Based on their interaction, it was clear to Duan Ling Tian that the duo was familiar with each other.

When Duan Ling Tian saw the duo looking at him briefly before making a move to leave, he could not help but wonder inwardly, 鈥楧o they disdain to fight me or do they lack the confidence to fight me? They must disdain to fight me鈥?However, this also means that there鈥檚 a high chance that they鈥檙e not demi Supreme Gods鈥︹€?/p>

In Duan Ling Tian鈥檚 opinion, if the duo was demi Supreme Gods, they would definitely try to kill him to eliminate the competition even if they would not gain points or rewards by doing so. However, it was also possible that the duo was luring him into a trap.

After assessing the situation, Duan Ling Tian felt confident that the duo was not demi Supreme Gods. Demi Supreme Gods did not need to work together since they were strong enough to act alone, which also meant that they did not have to share the benefits.

Following that, Duan Ling Tian did not hesitate and teleported over.

The two men were shocked when Duan Ling Tian appeared in front of them. Not only did they not expect him to discover them, but they also did not expect him to have the courage to stop them.

The two men鈥檚 expressions darkened immediately, and they did not hesitate to bring out their prominent divine artifacts and mobilize their Divine Energies.

Without saying a word, Duan Ling Tian brought the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword out and charged toward the duo. He cast the law of space, the Mastery Dao, and the Sword Dao at the same time. His methods were simple but powerful, and he easily overwhelmed the two advanced Emperors of Gods.

It did not take long for the duo to discover that they were in a disadvantageous position.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

A spatial storm began to rage before countless sword rays shot out, easily destroying the duo鈥檚 attacks. During the second round of confrontation, they finally realized that Duan Ling Tian had comprehended the Mastery Dao. Earlier, they had assumed that Duan Ling Tian鈥檚 attack came from the law of space alone and that his attacks were powerful due to his profound comprehension of the law of space.

Boom!

The duo did not even have a chance to speak before Duan Ling Tian attacked for the third time.

鈥淒uan鈥︹€?/p>

One of them was just about to call out to Duan Ling Tian to plead for mercy when a grey sword ray fell from the sky, killing him.

In the next moment, the other person died as well.

With just three moves, Duan Ling Tian killed two advanced Emperors of Gods. The duo鈥檚 strength was comparable to that of Cheng Yan, his previous opponent during the competition to select the interim Mansion Master of the Righteous Divine Kingdom鈥檚 Divine Spirit Mansion.

鈥楾he rewards for killing are doubled in Destiny Canyon鈥?This means that the rewards I鈥檒l receive for killing those two are equivalent to the rewards of killing four advanced Emperors of Gods鈥?I wonder how many points I gained by killing them鈥︹€?/p>

Duan Ling Tian checked his points on the ranking. To his disappointment, he discovered that he only had 11 points. However, in the next moment, he saw that he had gained 200 points. With that, his name rose to second place with 211 points. Not only that, but his points continued to increase every few dozen breaths until they finally stopped at 236 points.

鈥楾hese must be the points that both of them accumulated鈥︹€?Duan Ling Tian smiled happily as he thought to himself, 鈥業鈥檒l be able to catch up to Fourth Senior Sister soon! For now, I should focus on absorbing the energy from the rewards. Even if I can鈥檛 break through after absorbing the energy, I should be on the brink of a breakthrough!鈥?/p>

鈥?/p>

While Duan Ling Tian prepared to cultivate, the participants from the various Divine Kingdoms who kept an eye on the ranking were shocked when they saw Duan Ling Tian鈥檚 name rising to second place.
