Chapter 3279 - Fan Qin’s True Form

Chapter 3279: Fan Qin's True Form

Ten breaths passed in just a blink of an eye.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Fan Qi became a blur as he charged toward Duan Ling Tian like a gust of wind.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The sound of wind whistling in the air resounded in the Prodigy Arena. Most of the Heavenly Pool Palace disciples could not keep up with Fan Qi's movements since he was too fast for them.

On the other hand, those who had higher cultivation bases had already discovered something.

"Fan Qi… Did he break through and become a Six Combos Celestial Lord?'

"Fan Qi's a Six Combos Celestial Lord who has comprehended seven profundities from the law of wind to the mastery stages. Is he really less than 300 years old?"

"His talent and aptitude for cultivation are heaven-defying!"

"I think even others like him who are Celestial Plants would have a difficult time to achieve as much as he did in such a short time, right?"

With this discovery, the expressions of those Heavenly Pool Palace disciples who had discovered Fan Qi's recent breakthrough grew increasingly sympathetic when they looked at Duan Ling Tian.

Based on the strength Fan Qi had shown so far, it was incredibly easy for him to kill Liu Jian whom Duan Ling Tian killed a month ago. Most people were convinced that Duan Ling Tian only managed to kill Liu Jian due to Liu Jian's recklessness. In their opinion, now that Fan Qi's strength had increased another level after becoming a Six Combos Celestial Lord, he could easily kill Liu Jian even if Liu Jian was on guard.

Meanwhile, Hong Fei's expression changed drastically when he discovered Fan Qi's recent breakthrough. "Fan Qi… actually had a breakthrough recently?" He did not expect that Fan Qi, who was ranked first in the 200-to-300-year-old age group, was no longer a Five Elements Celestial Lord, but a Six Combos Celestial Lord.

Similarly, Hu Mei and Wen Wan'er's expressions turned solemn. Both of them felt as though their hearts were in their mouths.

On the contrary, Huan'er was the only one who remained calm. In fact, she seemed completely indifferent to it all.

'Duan Ling Tian… You'll definitely die today!' Han Yun Jin sneered.

Apart from Han Yun Jin, those who were filled with glee at the thought of Duan Ling Tian's impending death were Huang Lu Nan, the disciple of Gu Chang Jiang, the Martial Dragon Celestial Emperor; and Lei Jun, the disciple and son of Lei Ying, the Merciless Celestial Emperor, who had just arrived.

These people could not wait for Fan Qi to kill Duan Ling Tian.

…

"Is this the extent of your capability?" Under everyone's watchful eyes, Duan Ling Tian vanished from where he stood and reappeared in the sky using the Teleportation Profundity from the law of space. At the same time, raging spatial energy rolled off his body as his gaze turned frosty.

This was going to be the first time he was going to publicly show the seven out nine profundities from the law of space that he had comprehended to the mastery stage, not counting the Transportation Profundity that he had yet to use openly and the Space Elemental Profundity.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Nine sword rays silently shot out of the spatial tears that appeared after Duan Ling Tian cast the Cross-Dimensional Slash Profundity. Boosted by the other profundities that he had comprehended to the mastery stage, the power they carried was terrifyingly destructive.

Restraining Profundity!

The void around Fan Qi rippled, restraining him.

Fan Qi scoffed. Then, his Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted by the Wind Elemental Profundity surged out of his body.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The wind seemed as sharp as a blade as it blew in the air, trying to help Fan Qi break free of Duan Ling Tian's restraint. Alas, it was suppressed by the force of the other profundities from the law of space that Duan Ling Tian had cast.

Duan Ling Tian who had cast eight of his profundities from the law of space, which had been comprehended to the mastery stage, cut off Fan Qi's advances completely.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

In just a moment, the violent wind was easily quelled by the force from Duan Ling Tian's law of space. His suppression of Fan Qi was overwhelming. The nine sword rays from the Cross-Dimensional Slash Profundity, in particular, seemed invincible. No matter how powerful Fan Qi's attacks were, the sword rays easily destroyed them.

…

"So powerful!"

"Duan Ling Tian completely overpowered Fan Qi!"

"Am I seeing things? Apart from the Transporting Profundity that Duan Ling Tian had yet to cast, it… it seems like he has comprehended all the other profundities from the law of space to the mastery stage!"

"Duan Ling Tian's comprehension of the law of space is no weaker than Fan Qi's comprehension of the law of wind… However, the profundities that Duan Ling Tian comprehended have high offensive power while Fan Qi has yet to comprehend the main offensive profundity from the law of wind to the mastery stage."

"It makes no difference even if Fan Qi has comprehended the main offensive profundity from the law of wind to the mastery stage. The law of space is one of the Four Supreme Laws, after all. Even if Duan Ling Tian hasn't comprehended the Transportation Profundity to the mastery stage, he should still be able to easily overpower Fan Qi based on what we've seen so far."

"That's right. Moreover, out of the Four Supreme Laws, the law of space is acknowledged as being the hardest to comprehend. And yet, Duan Ling Tian managed to comprehend at least seven profundities from the law of space to the mastery stage, excluding the Space Elemental Profundity! It's possible that he has also comprehended the Transportation Profundity to the mastery stage and just hasn't shown it yet!"

Needless to say, everyone was surprised by Duan Ling Tian's strength. After all, they did not think he would be so powerful.

"As it turns out, it wasn't due to luck that he managed to kill Liu Jian!"

"With Duan Ling Tian's strength, it would be difficult for Liu Jian to survive unless he knew about Duan Ling Tian's strength beforehand!"

"The law of space is really domineering. Moreover, Duan Ling Tian has comprehended all of the offensive profundities from the law of space to the mastery stage!"

"He's definitely stronger than Fan Qi. It seems like Fan Qi is going to run out of luck today!"

"I wouldn't say that. After all, Fan Qi hasn't unleashed his full strength yet. He still has his special techniques as a Celestial Plant that he has yet to use. You should know all these non-humans have many tricks up their sleeves. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so bold as to challenge Duan Ling Tian to a life-or-death battle with no option to surrender."

"Although Duan Ling Tian's strength is surprising, I'm sure Fan Qi had expected it as well."

While the other Heavenly Pool Palace discussed among themselves, Hu Mei, Wen Wan'er, and Hong Fei were dumbfounded by the strength Duan Ling Tian displayed.

"Little Junior Brother is actually so powerful?"

"No wonder it was so easy for him to kill Liu Jian."

Nevertheless, Duan Ling Tian's three fellow disciples were still worried even though it seemed like Duan Ling Tian had completely overpowered Fan Qi at this moment. After all, Fan Qi was not human; there was no doubt he had many other techniques he gained as a Celestial Plant.

On the other hand, Han Yun Jin's eyes glinted coldly as he watched the battle. 'This is rather surprising! If given enough time, Duan Ling Tian will definitely become another Lu Ji. We have to kill him and nip this potential threat in the bud.'

Despite the strength Duan Ling Tian had shown, Han Yun Jin's confidence in Fan Qi did not waver. 'Although Duan Ling Tian is stronger than we expected, it still shouldn't be difficult for Fourth Junior Brother to kill him once he reverts to his true form.'

Similarly, Huang Lu Nan and Lei Jun were shocked and displeased. They did not expect Duan Ling Tian to be so strong. Nevertheless, they were still rather confident Fan Qi would win.

"Who would have thought he's so strong…" Even the Sword Trial Pavilion elder was shocked by Duan Ling Tian's strength. Similar to the others, he no longer thought it was due to luck that Duan Ling Tian managed to kill Liu Jian.

…

Back in the battle ring.

Duan Ling Tian's onslaught of attacks firmly put Fan Qi in a disadvantageous position.

Nevertheless, Fan Qi said calmly, "Duan Ling Tian, I have to say, your strength took me by surprise… However, it's time to end this!"

…

As soon as everyone heard Fan Qi's words, their eyes lit up. They knew Fan Qi was going to reveal his true strength now.

"I only know that Fan Qi is a Celestial Plant. To be precise, I know he's a Celestial Tree. However, I don't know what kind of tree he is…"

"If he's just an ordinary Celestial Tree, I'm afraid he doesn't stand a chance against Duan Ling Tian."

"Hey, can't you see how confident Fan Qi looks? Do you really think he would be an ordinary Celestial Tree?"

While the Heavenly Pool Palace speculated about Fan Qi's true form, a burst of green energy surged out of Fan's Qi body amidst Duan Ling Tian's onslaught of attacks.

Following that, Fan Qi disappeared before everyone's eyes. In his place was a tree that was in the process of growing.

Initially, the tree was just Fan Qi's height. However, in just a blink of an eye, it grew so tall that it broke Duan Ling Tian's restraint.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

At first glance, the tree looked like a huge pine tree. However, upon closer inspection, one would be able to see that its leaves and branches resembled those of a willow tree.

…

"Is… Is he a Pine Willow Divine Tree?"

"Heavens! The Pine Willow Divine Tree is sacred among Celestial Plants. Its status is equivalent to a top-tier Celestial Beast. Although it's not at the level of a Divine Beast, it's still close enough to one."

"Apparently, each branch of the Pine Willow Divine Tree contains enormous strength… Moreover, he's able to compound the strength of all his branches into a single attack."

"Fan Qi's true strength is rather obvious. Didn't you see how he broke free of Duan Ling Tian's restraint as soon as he reverted to his true form?! He couldn't break free in his human form."

"I didn't expect Fan Qi's true form to be that of a top-tier Celestial Plant like the Pine Willow Divine Tree."

"Duan Ling Tian is in a precarious situation now."

"The strength of Fan Qi's true form isn't inferior to the strength of two offensive profundities from the law of wind at the mastery stage!"

"With such strength, it'd be difficult for Duan Ling Tian to win even if he has completely mastered the law of space!"

"Duan Ling Tian is only human; how can he possibly win against a Pine Willow Divine Tree?"

Unsurprisingly, there was an uproar as soon as Fan Qi revealed his true form. Most people easily identified his true form as a Pine Willow Divine Tree.

…

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the Pine Willow Divine Tree began to whip its branches around before they formed a cage to trap Duan Ling Tian.

The Pine Willow Divine Tree towered in the air with its numerous branches that looked like tentacles. In just an instant, the tide of the battle had turned, and Fan Qi had regained the upper hand!
