Chapter 3752 - Supreme Elder Lei’s Decision

Upon seeing the unnatural expression on Lin Yan's face, Duan Ling Tian explained the problems he was facing.

Lin Yan's expression eased immediately. He said with a smile, "Revered Elder Duan, the things you don't understand are just basic things. If you're interested, I can teach you!"

At this moment, Lin Yan finally believed the purple-clad young man in front of him was not lying when he said he was a beginner. After all, the other party did not even understand some of the basic things about alchemy. However, this was not surprising. Many of the basic information was not recorded and was passed on verbally.

"Thank you, Revered Elder Lin," Duan Ling Tian gratefully.

Lin Yan looked at Linghu Ren Jie and said, "You really picked up a treasure this time! With Revered Elder Duan's foundation in alchemy, once he understands the basics, he'll definitely become an emperor-rank divine alchemist in no time. At that time, he'll be able to refine those Divine Pills you want. With his talent, they might even turn into Limit Divine Pills. Once he masters the basics, I'll give him the ingredients to refine the pills."

Linghu Ren Jie nodded.

Earlier, Duan Ling Tian had learned from Lin Yan that Linghu Ren Jie had asked Lin Yan to help him refine some Divine Pills that would help boost his cultivation. Linghu Ren Jie said to Lin Yan teasingly, "It seems like before Duan Ling Tian leaves the clan, we don't need an old fellow like you to refine Divine Pills. You're just wasting our ingredients anyway. It's better to let Duan Ling Tian use them."

Lin Yan was not angered by Linghu Ren Jie's words. He said tonelessly, "Very well. Since that's the case, I'll leave the clan and wander the world…"

Linghu Ren Jie's teasing smile vanished from his face immediately as he hastily said, "I'm just joking, just joking!"

Duan Ling Tian might be highly talented in alchemy, but he would leave the Linghu clan sooner or later. After all, he had made it clear he would be leaving the Linghu clan for the Flying Dragon Sect after 20 years.

Duan Ling Tian was highly talented. If he stayed in the Linghu clan, his future would be dim.

How could Linghu Ren Jie be willing to let Lin Yan go? Duan Ling Tian might be able to refine Divine Pills for him in the coming 20 years, but what happened after 20 years had passed?

Over the next period of time, Lin Yan would frequently visit Duan Ling Tian and vice versa.

It did not take long for Duan Ling Tian to master the unfamiliar basics of alchemy in the Realms of Gods.

During this time, news about the Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Divine Pills that Duan Ling Tian refined becoming Limit Divine Pills had also spread throughout the Linghu clan. With that, it did not take long for news to spread to the entire Linghu city.

In the history of the Linghu Clan, no one had ever refined Limit Divine Pills, not even god-grade Limit Divine Pills. Hence, the news caused a huge commotion in Linghu City.

"Heavens! Duan Ling Tian really can do it all! Not only is he a cultivation genius, but he's also a genius in alchemy! He became a rudimentary King of Gods at such a young age and is able to defeat ordinary advanced Kings of Gods, and now, he's an expert who's able to refine Limit Divine Pills!"

"The Hidden Fog Sect truly suffered a loss this time!"

"On the contrary, the Linghu clan obtained a treasure! The Hidden Fog Sect is probably feeling regretful now."

"If I were the Hidden Fog Sect, I'd slam my head against the wall out of regret!"

Before joining the Linghu clan, Duan Ling Tian's achievements in the Hidden Fog Sect had long spread to Linghu City. Everyone knew he was the first advanced god to become a core disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect in 10,000 years. Then, he was not even 3,000 years old before he became a rudimentary King of Gods. He was someone comparable to Xue Hai Chuan, the first advanced god in the history of the Hidden Fog Sect to become a core disciple.

The inhabitants of Linghu City also knew that Duan Ling Tian managed to kill Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao, two core disciples of the Hidden Fog Sect despite having a lower cultivation base than the duo.

The two inner disciples whom Duan Ling Tian killed in the Extreme Martial were not famous, but Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao were different. They were famous and were known to be among the five strongest core disciples in the Hidden Fog Sect. The duo was even capable of defeating most of the inner elders of the Hidden Fog Sect who were advanced Kings of Gods despite only being intermediate Kings of Gods themselves. How could everyone not be shocked that Duan Ling Tian who had only become a rudimentary King of Gods recently managed to kill the duo?

Initially, when the people of Linghu City heard about Duan Ling Tian killing the duo, they were rather skeptical. However, after he joined the Linghu clan, no one doubted him anymore. After all, if the news was untrue, why would Duan Ling Tian leave the Hidden Fog Sect and join the Linghu clan?

Only those from the Hidden Fog Sect were angered by Duan Ling Tian's perceived betrayal. On the contrary, when outsiders heard about it, they thought Duan Ling Tian had made the right choice. Would it not be foolish if Duan Ling Tian continued to stay in the Hidden Fog Sect and wait for Supreme Elder Lei and Supreme Elder Feng to kill him?

Now that news about Duan Ling Tian's talent in alchemy spread out, the people of Linghu City were naturally shocked again.

In a private room of a restaurant in Linghu City.

"He refined the Limit Divine Pills?"

A solemn-looking old man sitting at a table tightened his grip around the teacup in his hand. The teacup shattered, and with a wave of his hand, the fragments shot out like arrows, piercing through the wall. A young man sitting at the table stood up in a hurry upon seeing this. Then, he said worriedly, "Master, calm down."

The young man was none other than Shi Tong Ming. He was the core disciple who came to invite Duan Ling Tian to join his master, Supreme Elder Lei, after Duan Ling Tian killed Tu Feng in the Extreme Martial Arena. After Duan Ling Tian rejected Shi Tong Ming's invitation, Shi Tong Ming thought that would be the end of the matter. Who knew it was just the beginning. He did not expect his senior brother, Long Xiao, would hold a grudge against Duan Ling Tian because of that matter. His senior brother even roped Shangguan Xiong Feng in to cause trouble for Duan Ling Tian by robbing Duan Ling Tian of his two Auspicious Pills. Unfortunately, the duo who sought trouble with Duan Ling Tian was killed by Duan Ling Tian in the end.

"Tong Min," the old man, Supreme Elder Lei, called out. He asked gloomily, "Do you think your senior brother will resent me and blame me if I give up on avenging him?"

"Master," Shi Tong Ming said with a bitter smile, "Senior brother definitely won't blame or resent you. Master, I've always told you that we shouldn't make an enemy out of Duan Ling Tian. He's a monstrous genius. Moreover, if the news is to be believed, his backer is likely an emperor-rank force. Although it's said that he's from the Devata Realm, can someone from a Devata Realm have such heaven-defying talents? He's not even 3,000 years old, but he's already a rudimentary King of Gods. Most importantly, with that cultivation base, he's strong enough to kill advanced Kings of Gods. Now, it's said he's a genius in alchemy as well. Even the most outstanding members his age in emperor-rank forces in the Eastern Ridge Mansion aren't as outstanding as him. Master, I know you're furious and sad about senior brother's death. However, think about this. If senior brother didn't deliberately target Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ling Tian wouldn't have made a move against senior brother."

Shi Tong Ming sincerely persuaded his master. He really did not want his master to make an enemy out of Duan Ling Tian. When he first met Duan Ling Tian, he could tell Duan Ling

Tian was extraordinary. He did not pursue the matter as well when Duan Ling Tian rejected his invitation. At that time, he could see there was no changing Duan Ling Tian's mind.

When Shi Tong Ming found out Duan Ling Tian had returned to the Hidden Fog Sect after becoming a rudimentary King of Gods and killed his senior brother, Long Xiao, and Shangguan Xiong Feng, he realized how terrifying Duan Ling Tian truly was. Now that he found out Duan Ling Tian had refined Limit Divine Pills, once again, he thought Duan Ling Tian was really terrifying. Even if the Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Divine Pills were only god-grade pills, only extraordinary lord-grade divine alchemists could refine them into Limit Divine Pills. The lord-grade divine alchemists on the Hidden Fog Sect were far from being able to refine Limit Divine Pills.

Supreme Elder Lei sighed. He looked as though he had aged in just an instant. Then, he said, "Tong Ming, go to the Linghu clan on my behalf. Tell Duan Ling Tian that I will not pursue the matter of him killing Long Xiao since he only acted to defend himself against Long Xiao."

Supreme Elder Lei finally decided to let the matter go due to Duan Ling Tian's mysterious background and heaven-defying talents.

Originally, he had come to Linghu City to look for a chance to capture Duan Ling Tian to avenge his disciple, Long Xiao. However, he decided to let the matter go. He had a very strong feeling that if he continued to antagonize Duan Ling Tian, not only him and his disciples, but even the Hidden Fog Sect would suffer in the end.
