“I’ll give you three breaths’ time to prepare.” Duan Ling Tian did not respond to Huang Jia Long’s question. Instead, he reminded Huang Jia Long to prepare himself.

Almost as soon as Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, the golden Buddha silhouette that had slightly dimmed earlier shone brightly after he sent more Celestial Origin Energy into it.

‘After this attack, the temporary boost to my soul and Celestial Origin Energy granted by the consumable Monarch Grade Celestial Weapon would be almost depleted. Nevertheless, my fight with Huang Jia Long should be sufficient to ward off other Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestials from challenging me.’ The reason Duan Ling Tian had allowed Huang Jia Long to make two moves first and announced that he would defeat Huang Jia Long with one move was to intimidate the Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestials present on the scene so they would think twice about challenging him. With this scare tactic, he would not have to worry much about facing outstanding Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials after he had depleted his strength and losing the place to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. After all, the strength granted to him by the consumable Monarch Grade Celestial Weapon was almost completely depleted.

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, Huang Jia Long’s expression turned grim. At the same time, he swung his long spear, a Royal Grade Celestial Weapon. The golden dragon-like energy began to circle around him and his spear. In just a brief moment, a layer of round golden light shrouded him. Tiny bolts of red lightning could be seen flas.h.i.+ng on the golden barrier. He was prepared to defend and attack with all his might, at this moment. He planned to use his offensive technique to defend himself against Duan Ling Tian’s attack.

At this moment, three breaths’ time finally pa.s.sed.

Bang!

A loud noise rang near Duan Ling Tian who had suddenly bent his knees. His movement, coupled with his Celestial Origin Energy, caused a crack on the ground of the battlefield. Then, he directly flew toward Huang Jia Long. A golden light illuminated the sky and purple Qi skyrocketed as he flew with the golden Buddha silhouette in tow. Apart from that, a vortex that kept absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the surroundings churned tirelessly.

Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+

Duan Ling Tian swung the staff in his hand slightly. Along with the mysterious glow of the staff, a dazzling purple and golden light suddenly burst out.

Duan Ling Tian’s golden buddha silhouette moved along with him. Similarly, it was also holding a staff.

All of sudden, Duan Ling Tian stuck downward.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The staff in the hand of the golden Buddha silhouette that shone with a golden and purple light imitated Duan Ling Tian’s movement, leaving ripples in its wake.

“Just in time!” Despite Duan Ling Tian’s fearsome attack, Huang Jia Long seemed unafraid. He thrust his spear out to face Duan Ling Tian’s attack.

Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+

Earlier, Huang Jia Long had used his offensive Celestial Method, Divine Ability, and a.s.sistive Divine Ability. Now, he was more focused on using the a.s.sistive Divine Ability he had mastered. He also used his a.s.sistive Celestial Method that was of the duke grade. Although he had yet to completely master it, it was rather powerful.

a.s.sistive Celestial Methods did not directly improve one’s cultivation base. They helped with mobilizing and boosting one’s Celestial Origin Energy.

As Huang Jia Long thrust his spear out, a shower of spears rained down in front of him. All of the spears were targeted at Duan Ling Tian. They looked extremely terrifying as though they were capable of destroying everything.

Boom! Boom Boom!

Duan Ling Tian’s expression remained unchanged faced with Huang Jia Long’s different attack. The staff in his hand stirred up the wind in his surroundings. Similar to earlier, the golden Buddha silhouette imitated his actions as well. Purple and golden light energy circled around Duan Ling Tian’s staff like dragons. At this moment, the aura Duan Ling Tian exuded made people feel as though he was able to shake heaven and earth and destroy the mountains and the rivers. “It’s time to end this.”

When Duan Ling Tian’s staff was just a hair’s breadth away from Huang Jia Long, he subtly increased the strength of his Celestial Origin Energy to that of a One Basic Celestial Duke with just a thought, increasing the strength of his attack tremendously.

Bang!

When Duan Ling Tian’s staff collided with Huang Jia Long’s attack, it felt as though two planets had collided. The force of the collision seemed as though it was capable of destroying everything in its path.

After the earth-shattering collision, the light from Duan Ling Tian’s staff did not dim. Moreover, his golden Buddha silhouette seemed to grow stronger and stronger as he continued to fight.

On the contrary, Huang Jia Long’s numerous spears were completely and easily destroyed by Duan Ling Tian. Apart from that, his defenses were paper thin faced with Duan Ling Tian’s attack. It shattered into a million pieces in just a brief moment.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang

A series of deafening explosions rang in the air as the wind stirred violently into a flurry of hurricanes.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Duan Ling Tian’s attack easily overwhelmed Huang Jia Long. In just a short time, Huang Jia Long was sent flying out of the battlefield.

Whoos.h.!.+

As soon as Huang Jia Long was sent flying out of the battlefield’s light barrier, a figure appeared when he was about to fall.

The person who had appeared was none other than Huang Yuan Fei, the City Governor of Pa.s.sage City and Huang Jia Long’s father. He had clearly made this timely appearance to break Huang Jia Long’s fall. He heaved a sigh of relief when he noticed Huang Jia Long, who had fallen unconscious, was just lightly injured. Then, he looked at Duan Ling Tian with a complicated gaze as he said, “Thank you for showing mercy, Brother Duan.”

As a Ten Directions Celestial Duke, Huang Yuan Fei could tell Duan Ling Tian had held back his strength during the last moment. Naturally, he did not detect the brief moment where Duan Ling Tian had increased the strength of his Celestial Origin Energy to that of a One Basic Celestial Duke. He was unaware that if Duan Ling Tian did not hold back, his son would surely die!

Despite Huang Yuan Fei’s outward appearance, he was inwardly shocked. ‘My son’s a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. Moreover, the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities he mastered are all extraordinary. However, he still ended up in this state after facing this young man… Who’s he?”

At the same time, a commotion broke out as soon as the spectators regained their senses. Some of them even stood up abruptly due to their shock and fear.

“Heavens! He really defeated Huang Jia Long with just a move!”

“His… his attack seems comparable to a One Basic Celestial Duke who has mastered Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities!”

“How powerful! I didn’t know our Supporting Fall Nation has such a talented genius!”

“Even the fourth prince who’s widely acknowledged as the strongest Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial in the Supporting Fall Nation isn’t as strong as this young man!”

“His strength aside, he’s not even 100 years old, but he already owns two Royal Grade Celestial Weapons. He must have an extraordinary background! Even if he’s a sectless cultivator, he must have someone remarkably strong behind him!”

The way Duan Ling Tian had defeated Huang Jia Long with just one move had thoroughly shocked everyone, excluding Liu Guang Lin. Even the One Basic Celestial Dukes who did not master any high-grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability were fearful of Duan Ling Tian. They were aware they might not even be as strong as Duan Ling Tian!

Hu Ji Yong, the Fourth Prince of the Supporting Fall Nation, who was sitting next to the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation sighed. “I’m not as strong as him…”

‘He’s a monster!’ Meanwhile, Hu Lin Yi, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation, looked at Duan Ling Tian with gleaming eyes. The way he looked at Duan Ling Tian was akin to how one would look at a treasure. ‘With his talent, it’d be easy for him to survive in the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Since he joined the Southern Heaven Combat, it means he’s also interested in joining the Three Sects and Two Clans… He should be the disciple of some powerful sectless cultivator. Maybe he wants to join the Three Sects and Two Clans to experience the world. With his monstrous talent, no matter which of the Three Sects and Two Clans he joins, I would still be handsomely rewarded!’

Meanwhile, somewhere in the Imperial Palace.

A middle-aged man who had just arrived in the Imperial Palace was on his way to the venue of the Southern Heaven Combat. Before he arrived at his destination, he received a Communication Celestial Talisman from Imperial Concubine Lan. Various expressions flitted briefly across his face as he listened to Imperial Concubine Lan’s message:

“Brother, I can’t help you with this matter… I’m afraid the emperor wouldn’t do anything even if I told him the young man is Hao’er’s killer. This Duan Ling Tian probably has an extraordinary background so the emperor will be wary of him. That aside, the emperor now views him as a treasure since he will definitely benefit the emperor greatly since his chance of coming out of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm alive is very high. Brother, please give up…”

The middle-aged man none other than the father of the ugly young man dressed in fine robes whom Duan Ling Tian killed in the outskirts of the Supporting Fall Nation’s capital.

Upon hearing Imperial Concubine Lan’s words, his body trembled violently as his eyes reddened. “What?! One move? It took him one move to defeat the Pa.s.sage City’s Young Master, Huang Jia Long?! Isn’t Huang Jia Long the second strongest Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestial in the Supporting Fall Nation who’s only second to the fourth prince?”

It seemed as though he had lost his mind as he muttered to himself, “No! No! Never! I won’t give up! Never! In order to find Hao’er’s killer, I’ve even given up on cultivation! He must die! He must die!” Hatred burned intensely in his bloodshot eyes as he spoke.

At the venue of the Southern Heaven Combat.

After Duan Ling Tian defeated Huang Jia Long with one move, the partic.i.p.ants in the other eight battlefields stared at Duan Ling Tian with a blank expression on their faces, clearly stunned. They only continued with their respective fights after they regained their senses.

In the subsequent hour, just as Duan Ling Tian had expected and hoped for, no one else dared to challenge him. Just like that, he managed to secure a place to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.

“Southern Heaven Ancient Realm and the Three Sects and Two Clans… How exciting,” Duan Ling Tian murmured to himself as he returned to his seat among the spectators, ignoring all the eyes on him.
