Chapter 3949: The Artifact Expert Has Returned
Limit Divine Pills from a supreme powerhouse whos a skilled alchemist? Lan Xi Lins eyes widened upon hearing Lan Zheng Mings words. His eyes shone with greed as he said, Great-grandpa, you really think he has Limit Divine Pills left behind by a supreme powerhouse?
Its quite likely, Lan Zheng Ming said with a faint smile, Im sure there are other possibilities as well, but Ive yet to think of them. There are many things in the world that I dont know. Duan Ling Tian achieved such an amazing feat in such a short time. Not only does it prove that hes lucky, but it also proves that he has very high innate talent. As for his comprehension skills, theyre better than yours as well. He looked at Lan Xi Lin intently before he continued to say, With that, although youre an intermediate Lord of G.o.ds, you might not necessarily win if you fight him.
Lan Xi Lin was displeased by Lan Zheng Mings words. He said confidently, Great-grandpa, you underestimate me too much! Although Ive only become an intermediate Lord of G.o.ds not too long ago, Im already stronger than ordinary intermediate Lords of G.o.ds. I watched the recording of him killing the two intermediate Lords of G.o.ds in the Flying Dragon Sect. If I were in his shoes, I could do it as well!
Lan Zheng Ming nodded. I believe you. However, could you do it as cleanly as he did? Duan Ling Tian is young, but his methods are like that of someone who has lived for tens of thousands of years. He must have gone through countless battles when he was in the Devata Realm.
Great-grandpa, youre going out of topic, Lan Xi Lin said with a frown. He naturally knew Lan Zheng Ming was trying to tell him that he was no match for Duan Ling Tian, who was not even 3,000 years old. He would have lived in vain for so long if he did not understand Lan Zheng Mings meaning.
Im not going out of topic, Lan Zheng Ming said with a smile, You came to complain about the unfairness of Duan Ling Tian receiving resources from the sect. Im saying these words so you can clearly see the difference between you andhim. However, it seems its not working. Perhaps, youre unwilling to see the truth. Xi Lin, you have to have self-awareness. You shouldnt let an unimportant thing like ego hinder your growth.
Lan Zheng Mings gaze turned sharper and sharper, and his voice turned more solemn as he spoke.
Lan Xi Lin, who noticed this, turned obedient and said, Yes, great-grandpa.
Lan Zheng Ming said with a sigh, Your junior granduncles and senior granduncles who are high-ranking officials have discussed this matter with me beforehand. I agreed with the sect giving Duan Ling Tians resources as well.
Why? Lan Xi Lin asked upon hearing this. He tried his best to restrain his temper.
I was forced to agree by the majority, Lan Zheng Ming said as his eyes flashed, All seven major factions with Ascension Elders, including the Cloud Peak faction, support this. Under such circ.u.mstances, the other factions could only agree. Those who object would only be criticized for not thinking about the sects future and might even be punished.
Before Lan Xi Lin could speak again, Lan Zheng Ming continued to say, Duan Ling Tians innate talent and comprehension skills are too remarkable. Hence, everyone has placed their hopes on him for the Seven Mansions Feast that will be held in about 50 years. You should be aware that you and the other True Martial Disciples stronger than you can barely make it into the top ten. However, Duan Ling Tians chances are really high if he manages to become an intermediate Lord of G.o.ds before the Seven Mansions Feast begins. Based on his strength now as a rudimentary Lord of G.o.ds, if he becomes an intermediate Lord of G.o.ds within 50 years, Im certain hell rank in the top ten during the Seven Mansions Feast.
After a moment, Lan Zheng Ming looked at Lan Xi Lin gently and asked, Xi Lin, do you think youll be a match for him now when you were a rudimentary Lord of G.o.ds?
Lan Xi Lin fell silent for a moment. After a moment, he said with a guilty expression on his face, I understand, great-grandpa. I was blinded by jealousy and did not think about this clearly.
Lan Zheng Ming shook his head and said with a sigh, Its all my fault for spoiling you. Otherwise, you wouldnt have reacted like this After a beat, he said, I heard when Duan Ling Tian arrived, he and Junior Brother Zhen visited you. I hope youll let the matter rest. Whether its Duan Ling Tian or those two from the Glorious Heaven Sect, you shouldnt act rashly.
Then, Lan Zheng Ming turned to Liu Hui and said, Liu Hui, if he wants you to act against Duan Ling Tian or those two from the Glorious Heaven Sect, report to me at once. Youre not allowed to help him.
Yes, grandmaster, Liu Hui hurriedly replied. A bitter smile appeared on his face. He knew he would have to be careful about carrying out Lan Xi Lins orders from now on.
Great-grandpa, why are you so afraid of Duan Ling Tian? Lan Xi Lin asked with a sneer. He seemed to have forgotten to restrain himself at this moment. He was unhappy that Lan Zheng Ming forbade him from seeking revenge on Duan Ling Tian and the duo from the Glorious Heaven Sect.
Im not afraid of him, Lan Zheng Ming said as he shook his head, However, its not worth it to cause trouble. The sect has placed all its hopes on him. Before the Seven Mansions Feast, they definitely wont allow anything to happen to him. If you make a move against him, whether you succeed or not, the sect definitely wont let you go. The Ascension Elders might even kill you. Do you think I, a Nirvanic Elder, will be able to save you at that time?
Lan Xi Lin fell silent upon hearing Lan Zheng Mings words.
Moreover, Lan Zheng Ming continued to say, For Duan Ling Tian to have such fortuitous encounters only means hes incredibly lucky. If you want to get rid of such a person, your plan has to be incredibly detailed and meticulous. Even the smallest loophole will allow him to escape. If that happens, its over for you. Xi Lin, listen to me. Theres no grudge between you and Duan Ling Tian. Theres no need to run yourself because of a moment of anger.
Lan Zheng Mings expression turned solemn at the end of his words.
Yes, great-grandpa, Lan Xi Lin replied despite feeling unwilling. He could tell his great-grandfather took this matter very seriously. It was rare for his great-grandfather to be so serious.
Its better to have such a person as a friend than a foe, Lan Zheng Ming advised again. Then, he looked at Lan Xi Lin with a knowing gaze, as though he could read Lan Xi Lins mind. He added, Dont even think about trying to s.n.a.t.c.h his things from him. The things that are suitable for him might not necessarily be suitable for you. Even if he really possesses some precious treasures, you wont get anything since Im sure he has a spatial ring that will self-destruct. Moreover, you might not even be a match for him. Dont take unnecessary risks.
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian felt that his days in the Pure Yang Sect were the easiest and most comfortable since he came to the Profound Energy Land. Apart from the huge amount of resources from the Pure Yang Sect, Zhen Ping Fan, the son of the leader of the Cloud Peak faction, would also help him to the best of his ability.
When Duan Ling Tian left the Pure Yang Sect to refine the lord-grade Limit Divine Pills, Zhen Ping Fan would also accompany him to ensure his safety. Since Zhen Ping Fan was not an alchemist, Zhen Ping Fan would not be able to sense anything strange even if Duan Ling Tian pretended to refine king-grade Limit Divine Pills when he refined lord-grade Limit Divine Pills.
As the days pa.s.sed, Duan Ling Tians cultivation base continued to rise as well.
Duan Ling Tian.
At this time, Duan Ling Tian suddenly received a message from Qin Wu Yang.
The Cloud Peak factions artifact expert I mentioned previously has finally returned. Ive already prepared all the things needed to forge the Destruction Divine Shuttles. With the materials I gathered, hell be able to forge three Destruction Divine Shuttles for you in a month.
Duan Ling Tians eyes brightened when he heard Qin Wu Yangs message. He could finally send his doppelganger back to the lower realms again.
Since the destination of the return trip to the Realm of G.o.ds was uncertain, Duan Ling Tian did not want to risk it by returning to the lower realms with his true body. Moreover, his doppelganger was strong enough to handle any problems in the lower realms.
