2333 Final Arrangements

Duan Ling Tian’s hands moved swiftly like dragons. He leaned forward slightly before he suddenly straightened his arms.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

As soon as the sound of explosions rang in the air, waves of energy shot out of Duan Ling Tian’s hand and the void rippled and distorted in its wake.

Bang!

A deafening noise sounded in the air again when Duan Ling Tian slapped his hands together. Cracks that looked like black snakes began to appear in the void in front of him

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions sounded in the air and tiny mushroom clouds appeared one after another. The shockwaves were extremely terrifying, wreaking havoc in its wake.

The crowd seemed as though they were unaware of the terrifying shockwaves. All their attention was focused on the people from the Great Spirit Palace!

When Duan Ling Tian slapped his palms together in front of him, everyone saw two gigantic palms suddenly appear out of thin air. The people from the Great Spirit Palace were in between the two gigantic palms. As quickly as they had appeared, the gigantic palms began to move toward each other. It was going to crush the people from the Great Spirit Palace!

All of these happened in just a blink of an eye. Everyone from the Great Spirit Palace, including Xing Yuan Ba, did not even have time to react as the two gigantic palms closed in on them. The force from the palms made their blood run cold.

Xing Yuan Ba was the first to return to his senses. His eyes widened in horror as he cried out in a voice filled with desperation, “No!”

Although the people from the Great Spirit Palace did not even have time to make a sound, the people from the Three Palaces and Six Halls saw their expressions change dramatically. Their expressions were one of horror and desperation.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment…

Suddenly…

Bang!

A loud explosion sounded in the air and a huge mushroom cloud appeared when the two gigantic palms finally met. Everyone from the Great Spirit Palace, including Xing Yuan Ba, were crushed. All of them were as defenseless as ants. There was nothing they could do when faced with their impending deaths.

Through the mushroom cloud, the crowd managed to catch a glimpse of red mist. It looked extremely mesmerizing… However, only a few people enjoyed the sight. Most people felt their hearts jolt in fear. That G.o.d-like man had killed all of the high-ranking officials from the Great Spirit Palace in just a blink of an eye. He did not even move from his spot, he had merely slapped his palms together.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sounds of explosions continued to ring in the air. Shockwaves began to roll out from where the palms met in all directions as though it could sweet through all nine heavens and h.e.l.l.

Shortly after…

The sounds of screaming could be heard.

“No!”

“Run!”

Among those present, the disciples from Wandering Saint Palace were undoubtedly the weakest. Some of them were injured and some of them tried to run away.

On the other hand, the high-ranking officials from the Three Palaces and Six Halls had to exert their strength to withstand the shockwaves.

After a while, the shockwaves gradually died down. Many tiny tears in the void could be seen in the s.p.a.ce in front of Duan Ling Tian and where the people from the Great Spirit Palace had been standing. This was the result of Duan Ling Tian’s attack when he killed all the high-ranking officials from the Great Spirit Palace.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian did this as a show of power to those from the Three Palaces and Six Halls. Although he had killed s.h.i.+ Nan Feng and Liao Nai Jiang and forced Yang Zhen Xing to run away, he had done it in an effective manner. He had intentionally killed the people from the Great Spirit Palace in a flashy manner and used their blood to warn the others from the Three Palaces and Six Halls.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian had targeted the Great Spirit Palace because of s.h.i.+ Nan Feng. He did not have a good impression of the Great Spirit Palace at all. The people from the Great Spirit Palace would have felt wronged if they could read his thoughts.

‘It seems like the show I put on is effective…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he glanced at the crowd. He saw fear in their eyes when they looked at him as though he was a grim reaper. This was exactly what Duan Ling Tian wanted.

For the people from the Human-Devil clan, this was undoubtedly an unforgettable day. A human had killed s.h.i.+ Nan Feng, the Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace. Moreover, he also killed Liao Nai Jiang, a Three Tribulation Celestial and the master of the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan. After that, he had forced the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan to use a Fiery Blood Evasion Talisman to escape! That was not the end! The human had also killed all the high-ranking officials from the Great Spirit Palace, he did not even move and merely slapped his palms together. The high-ranking officials from Great Spirit Palace were cultivators at or above the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. One of them was even widely acknowledged as the strongest person below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in the Human-Devil clan! However, the human had killed them effortlessly.

‘Duan Ling Tian!’

The name of the human resounded in all their minds at this moment. Most of them looked at him in awe and admiration.

Duan Ling Tian looked at Yuwen Hao Chen and the seven leaders of the Three Palaces and Six Halls. “All of you, listen up! I don’t care if you decide to force everyone to swear on the lightning penalty oath or use some other methods, but make sure you keep everyone under control…” He said sternly.

“Yes, master!”

“Yes, master!”

A chorus of yeses sounded as soon as Duan Ling Tian finished speaking. The leaders of the Three Palaces and Six Halls were trembling in fear inwardly, but they quickly and respectfully responded to Duan Ling Tian. Since they had sworn on the lightning penalty oath, they did not dare to disobey him, they could only obey him.

Duan Ling Tian continued to give out orders. “Apart from that, I hope seven of you will quickly bring all of the Human-Devil clan under your control as soon as possible. At the very least, all those at or above the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in the Human-Devil clan must be on our side! I don’t care about the means, only the outcome.”

Yuwen Hao Chen and the others quickly agreed to it.

“Finally, send men you trust to search for the Azure Cloud Mansion… Notify me immediately as soon as you have any information. I’ll give all of you a few jade tokens later. When you use it, I’ll be notified instantly. At that time, I’ll return to the Human-Devil clan’s territory,” Duan Ling Tian said.

“Master, you… Are you leaving?!”

When Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, Yuwen Hao Chen and the others realized he had no intention of staying.

“Should I stay put and wait for Patriarch Yang to return with your Human-devil clan’s forefather?” Duan Ling Tian said coolly, “Moreover, there are things I need to do in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land… Communication jade tokens won’t work while I’m in the Upper Province, but if you use the detection jade tokens that I’ll provide you with, you’ll be able to contact me. At that time, I’ll open the s.p.a.ce barrier and return to the Lower Province. Once I return to the Lower Province, you’ll be able to talk to me through the communication jade tokens.”

As soon as Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, he lifted his arm before he brought out jade tokens and gave them to Yuwen Hao Chen and the others. These were detection jade tokens he had inscribed in the past when he was practicing inscribing Saint Inscriptions. The jade tokens came in pairs. When one is used, the other would be activated as well.
