Chapter 2174 Duan Ling Tian’s Strength

When Duan Ling Tian moved his right hand and the gigantic hand appeared, it seemed as though it was capable of plucking the sun, the moon, and the stars from the sky.

Lu Qing, the awe-inspiring Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum, was completely overpowered. He was utterly defenseless before Duan Ling Tian, he could not strike back at all!

There was an expression of disbelief and shock on the faces of the group of elders and disciples from the White Tiger Sanctum when they saw this scene.

Prior to this, Lu Qing, the Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum, was powerful in the eyes of the disciples and elders of White Tiger Sanctum. However, today, they witnessed how helpless Lu Qing was and how he had been subdued by a Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect true disciple!

Was there ever a Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect true disciple who was so abnormally strong?

Whoos.h.!.+

Under the watchful eyes of the others, the gigantic hand that was holding onto a struggling Lu Qing released its grip on him suddenly.

When Duan Ling Tian unclenched his hands, the gigantic hand that was formed from his Sun Saint Origin did the same, releasing Lu Qing.

When Lu Qing was released, he felt as though he had regained his freedom again. At this moment, he felt relieved that he had survived a disaster. Before long, terror overwhelmed him. He was terrified by Duan Ling Tian’s strength!

Swoos.h.!.+

Before Lu Qing could react, Duan Ling Tian raised his right hand and smashed it down again at lightning speed. The gigantic hand instantly moved up before it slammed down on Lu Qing again.

Boom!

A loud explosion rang in the air. Lu Qing who did not have time to react at all since the beginning was crushed by the gigantic hand and fell to the ground violently.

After a while…

Boom!

Rumble!

A series of explosions reverberated in the air. The ground in the White Tiger Sanctum shook violently. While Lu Qing, the Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum, was free-falling, the gigantic hand smashed down on him again.

However, Duan Ling Tian’s attack held no killing intent. After he smashed Lu Qing down for the final time, he made the gigantic hand formed from his Sun Saint Origin vanished with just a thought.

Even then, Lu Qing was covered in dust despite not suffering grievous injuries. How could he not be covered in dust when he was slammed to the ground so violently that he was almost buried in the ground.

To the group of White Tiger Sanctum elders and disciples, all of this happened too quickly. The Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum was helplessly smashed to the ground by a true disciple in just a blink of an eye. He was plastered to the ground as though he was a specimen that was pinned on a board.

The group of White Tiger Sanctum elders and disciples had an expression of disbelief and fear on their faces when they saw this.

“Sanctum Leader Lu, please excuse me.” Duan Ling Tian looked at Lu Qing, the Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum, who had just gotten up from the ground before he flew away. It seemed as though he did not see the grave expression on Lu Qing’s face.

To Duan Ling Tian, defeating someone at the Fifth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage did not bring him any sense of achievement at all, even if the other party was the Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum and a Golden Flame Elder of Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect.

If the people from the White Tiger Sanctum did not obstruct Duan Ling Tian’s path, he would not have made a move at all.

Only several years have pa.s.sed, but Duan Ling Tian has become so strong?’ After Duan Ling Tian left, Lu Qing’s face turned green before it paled. At the same time, he seemed to have recalled something, causing his eyes to widen. ‘D- Don’t tell me the news from Sin City is true? Duan Ling Tian really killed Xie Kang Xun, the Golden Lion King and one of the Four Great Karmapas of Black Kshetra Sect?’

Previously, although Lu Qing had heard the news of Duan Ling Tian killing Xie Kang Xun, similar to most people, he did not think it was anything more than a rumor. However, now that he had suffered defeat in Duan Ling Tian’s hands, he could not help but give the rumor credence.

When Duan Ling Tian had struck earlier, all he felt was the suffocating force from the gigantic hand that smashed him. The gigantic hand felt as though it held the power of Heaven and earth. No matter how much he struggled, he could not free himself at all!

The gigantic hand is formed only from his Saint Origin. Even an ordinary cultivator at the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage won’t be able to do that! It feels as though he’s at the peak of the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage or possibly even the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!’ The moment Lu Qing thought of this, a hint of confusion could be seen in his eyes. ‘It’s only been a few years, but he has grown so strong… What kind of fortuitous encounter did he have?” The confusion in his eyes was replaced with a look of jealousy.

In Lu Qing’s opinion, it was not possible for Duan Ling Tian to grow so monstrously strong in just a few years. He had to have a fortuitous encounter.

After a while, Lu Qing’s face turned red when he sensed the stares from the White Tiger Sanctum elders. He did not acknowledge them at all before he flew away like a gust of wind and disappeared before everyone’s sight. Today, he, the Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum, had been greatly humiliated! If he knew then what he knew now, he would have pretended to be in closed-door cultivation and let Duan Ling Tian go. Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret in this world…

The people who regained their senses first were the Silver Flame Elders. They only exchanged a look and smiled wryly when they saw their Sanctum Leader had left without a word.

“I can’t believe Duan Ling Tian has grown so strong in just a few years. It’s crazy!” A Silver Flame Elder from the White Tiger Sanctum said as he sighed emotionally.

“You’re right. If I didn’t personally witness this, I would find it hard to believe as well. Lord Sanctum Leader was like a helpless three-year-old in front of Duan Ling Tian. He could not strike back at all!”

“Even an ordinary powerhouse at the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage wouldn’t be able to defeat Lord Sanctum Leader so easily, right?”

“Duan Ling Tian may very well be at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage! I didn’t personally see this, I wouldn’t believe he has grown so strong in such

a short time!”

“Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage? Does this mean the rumor of him killing Xie Kang Xun, the Golden Lion King of Black Kshetra Sect, is true?”

“Based on the current situation, I won’t be surprised if it’s true.”

Initially, only the Silver Flame Elders of White Tiger Sanctum were discussing Duan Ling Tian’s current strength. After a while, the White Tiger Sanctum Bronze Flame Elders and disciples began to join in the discussion. In the end, they came to the conclusion that Duan Ling Tian, a rare prodigy from the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect, had probably killed Xie Kang Xun, one of the Four Great Karmapas of Black Kshetra Sect!

“Xie Kang Xun, the Golden Lion King and one of the Four Great Karmapas of Black Kshetra Sect, is at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. He’s ranked 18th on the Supreme Saint Ranking! If Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian really killed him, he must have taken over his ranking, right?” One of the White Tiger Sanctum disciples muttered under his breath.

“It won’t be too long from now before the new Supreme Saint Ranking is released. I think it’ll reach the western region and the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect in just a few days,” another White Tiger Sanctum disciple chimed in.

Currently, the group of White Tiger Sanctum elders and disciples was unaware that the new Supreme Saint Ranking had already been released in the central region. People around that area who initially did not believe Duan Ling Tian had killed Xie Kang Xun, the Golden Lion King of Black Kshetra Sect, widened their eyes in disbelief when they saw the person who was ranked 18th on the Supreme Saint Ranking. They were speechless. Their faces were flushed as though someone had slapped them.

As it turned out, Duan Ling Tian, the prodigy from Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect, really did kill Xie Kang Xun, the Golden Lion King and one of the Four Great Karmapas of Black Kshetra Sect!

They could choose not to believe in the rumors, but they had no choice but to believe in the Supreme Saint Ranking!

Duan Ling Tian who had left the White Tiger Sanctum finally arrived in the vicinity of the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect’s Saint Land. “Saint Land… It has been such a long time since I was here!”

However, Duan Ling Tian did not land in the Saint Land nor did he return to his mansion on the floating island. Instead, he flew even higher above the clouds where a group of floating islands was located. He flew all the way up before he came to a halt at the highest point where one floating island was located.

“I, Duan Ling Tian, have returned to the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect after seeing the announcement Sect Leader made. Sect Leader, I came here to look for you, hoping that you’ll keep your promise and swear on the lightning penalty oath.” Duan Ling Tian said at a neither hurried nor slow pace as he hovered in the air in front of the floating island. He remained calm as though he did not place any importance in the Sect Leader of the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect.

An elder who was on patrol was about to reprimand the true disciple who appeared in the cultivation place of the Sect Leader when he came to a halt suddenly.

“Duan Ling Tian? He’s back?”
