Chapter 2317 Still Alive!

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian could do nothing but watch as the Three-legged Golden Crow formed from Sun Force was depleted by the last lightning bolt from the Celestial Ascension Tribulation. He tried to urge out whatever Saint Origin he had left in his body, but it was depleted by the lightning bolt as soon as he surged out.

‘Elder Huo, I’ve disappointed you…’ Duan Ling Tian felt sorry when he thought about Elder Huo who had saved his life at the cost of his own life. He remembered Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang who had left behind the Supreme Sword Dao Mental Cultivation Method’s Sovereign Heart Sword. ‘Master Feng Qing Yang, I only cultivated the Supreme Sword Dao Mental Cultivation Method’s Sovereign Heart Sword you left behind to the third stage. You must feel very disappointed. It’s unfortunate I won’t have a chance to meet you and call you master.’ This was one of his regrets in life. Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang was the only person he recognized as a master wholeheartedly.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian also remembered his beloved family and friends whom he had not met in many years. ‘Dad, Mom, Little Fei’er, Nian Tian, Tian Wu, Xin Nai, Bi Yao, Xian Lan, Uncle Feng, and Senior Brother Bai Li…’ When he thought about his family and friends, his desire to live was reignited again. ‘I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die! There are still many things I need to do. I still have to search for my dad, my mom, Little Fei’er, and Nian Tian. Not to forget Uncle Feng, Senior Brother Bai Li, and the others…They’re still in this Lower Province of Dao Martial Saint Land. What if they meet with an accident? Moreover, there’s still Tian Wu. I promised Uncle Feng I would bring her back!’

When Duan Ling Tian thought about his family and friends, he remembered he still had many unfinished businesses. He was unwilling to die. Moreover, he still had Ke’er and Duan Si Ling as well. How could he let Ke’er follow him to the afterlife?

‘No! No way! I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die! Is there any way for me to get out of this predicament?’

Duan Ling Tian began to panic when he saw the last vestige of the Sun Force would be completely depleted in about ten breaths’ time. Although he had mentally prepared himself, nothing could prepare him for the moment when he was truly on the brink of death. For this reason, he was panicking. He was thoroughly distressed and instinctively released his Spiritual Energy. Moreover, the blood in his body began to boil as well.

‘The Three-legged Golden Crow formed by the Sun Force won’t be able to last any longer!’ A few more breaths had pa.s.sed, Duan Ling Tian began to get more impatient. His Spiritual Energy was raging and his blood continued to boil. He had fallen to the depth of despair at this moment when he suddenly discovered a change in his body. His dragon scales had disappeared and he had reverted back to his human form.

‘What’s happening?’ Previously, whenever Duan Ling Tian transformed into a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior, he had never suddenly reverted back to human without intending to. Now that he had reverted to human, he was, naturally, naked. He instinctively changed into a new purple robe.

‘This is…’ As soon as Duan Ling Tian put his robe on, he discovered that the Dragon Energy in his body had become restless. Usually, to transform into a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior, all he needed to do was fuse his Saint Origin with the Dragon Energy. The Dragon Energy had always lay calmly in his body since the day he obtained it from the dragon clan in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. It would not move unless he was going to transform into a Nine-clawed Dragon Warrior.

Duan Ling Tian was further shocked after a while. He discovered the Dragon Energy had surged out of his body ‘It… came out?’ It was as though his body was the prison, and the Dragon Energy that yearned for its freedom had broken free of its shackles.

‘My eye…’ At the same time, Duan Ling Tian clearly sensed the Spiritual Energy he had released earlier had mysteriously gathered before they returned by entering one of his eyes, the Strange Eye. He had obtained the Strange Eye when he had fused with the eye of the One-eyed Devil Vulture. He felt a stabbing pain in his eye when his Spiritual Energy rushed into his eye. It felt as though his Spiritual Energy was a hook that was pulling on his eye. It did not take long before he realized his Spiritual Energy was drawing on the force of the One-eyed Devil Vulture’s eye.

Boom!

The Dragon Energy surged out of his body in the form of golden flames and shot into the sky as it kept expanding.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

At the same time, the last lightning bolt from the Celestial Ascension Tribulation finally depleted all the Sun Force. The Sun Force was no more!

As soon as the Sun Force disappeared, the lightning bolt continued to strike toward Duan Ling Tian fiercely, engulfing him when it struck. The scene was akin to a solitary boat being swallowed by the sea during a thunderstorm.

When Ke’er, Duan Si Ling, and Gan Ru Yan saw the Sun Force being depleted by the lightning bolt and the lightning striking Duan Ling Tian, they could not help but scream in unison. Their eyes were filled with indescribable sorrow.

Ke’er’s expression was sorrowful as tears welled up in her eyes. She felt as though her world was collapsing. After all, her man was her world. “Brother Tian!”

“Daddy!” Duan Si Ling began to sob. She thought her father had already been struck dead by the lightning bolt.

s.h.i.+ Nan Feng, the Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace, smirked. “Duan Ling Tian is finally dead!”

“Duan Ling Tian is dead!”

“The last lightning bolt from the Celestial Ascension Tribulation is too terrifying! Duan Ling Tian is quite strong. However, look at how weak he is compared to the last lightning bolt from the Celestial Ascension Tribulation!”

“If he had managed to overcome this lightning bolt, he would’ve pa.s.sed the Celestial Ascension Tribulation and become an Eminent Celestial. How unfortunate that he failed!”

Someone scoffed. “So what? Even if he pa.s.sed the Celestial Ascension Tribulation and became an Eminent Celestial, with Lord Patriarch around, he would still die!”

“Indeed. Lord Patriarch definitely won’t let a human Eminent Celestial go. After all, he’ll become a huge threat to the Human-Devil clan and the Devil Clans!”

When the crowd saw the Sun Force was gone and Duan Ling Tian seemed to have died from the lightning strike, they began to discuss among themselves again. All of them were certain he had already died.

“H-he failed after all…” Huang Wen Jing’s face turned pale and her eyes were filled with sorrow. The only man she had ever loved had died in front of her. She thought she could hear the sound of her heart breaking.

Unlike Huang Wen Jing, Yun Fu Ye who was standing nearby laughed coldly when he saw the lightning bolt engulfed Duan Ling Tian. “Silly human! How dare you run rampant in our Wandering Saint Palace. You deserve to die!”

“Master!”

“Brother Ling Tian!”

Both Peng Lai and Huang Qi Ling closed their eyes in pain and their bodies s.h.i.+vered violently.

All of a sudden, a voice filled with shock and disbelief rang in the ear. It was not very loud but it sounded deafening in everyone’s ears. “He’s still alive!” The person who had spoken was none other than the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Ke’er who was preparing to take her own life suddenly paused as well.

s.h.i.+ Nan Feng looked at the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan and asked in disbelief, “Lord Patriarch? Who…who did you say is still alive?” Although he knew the answer, he was unwilling to believe it.
