4417 Duan Ling Tian’s Ambition

Blue Dawn City.

News of the annihilation of the five major clans in Dancing Sun City and the emergence of a new supreme powerhouse from the Meng clan in Green Billow City spread through Blue Dawn City and became the hottest topic. However, these matters were quickly forgotten by the public when the Wang clan announced the wedding that would be held a month later. Even after two weeks, everyone was still fervently discussing the wedding.

"Rumors have it that the groom, a prodigy, isn't a noble or from a strong clan. At least, that's not the case in the Divine Sand Realm. Who knows if he has an extraordinary background outside of the Divine Sand Realm?"

"He must be outstanding since the Wang clan allowed him to marry Wang Luo Yu."

"That's right. The Wang clan wouldn't agree to the marriage if they couldn't benefit from it."

"The wedding will be held in half a month… All the major cities and major clans in the Divine Sand Realm will definitely send their representatives to attend the wedding."

"I wonder if any of the supreme powerhouses the Wang clan invited will attend the wedding?"

"As long as one supreme powerhouse agrees to attend, the others will likely attend as well… If that's the case, the wedding will be extremely grand!"

The people in Blue Dawn City were all curious about the young prodigy who successfully proposed to Wang Luo Yu, the number one beauty of the city.

…

Duan Ling Tian was aware that the wedding had become a hot topic in the city since he frequently strolled the streets of the city. However, he did not pay attention to it and was focused on gathering information about the Wang clan and the four major clans of Blue Dawn City.

The four major clans of Blue Dawn City each had a supreme powerhouse and ruled the city. Although they despised the Wang clan, they were still courteous to the Wang clan due to the connections the Wang clan had with a few supreme powerhouses in the Outer Boundary. As such, it was likely that the four clan leaders of the four major clans would attend the wedding in the Wang clan as a show of courtesy. Even if the clan leaders did not personally attend, they would definitely send representatives with high status to attend the wedding.

The Wang clan used to have a supreme powerhouse, after all. Even if the supreme powerhouse was no longer around, the descendants were still enjoying the benefits. For example, the four major clans of Blue Dawn City owned the most properties in the city. The Wang clan was only second to the four major clans in that regard. As a second-rank clan, it owned more than double the properties that the other second-rank clans owned.

…

"Hmph! Did that kid put Wang Kui under a spell? How the hell did he convince Wang Kui to allow him to marry Wang Luo Yu when there are many more suitable candidates in the Divine Sand Realm?"

"Young master, in my opinion, that kid can't even withstand more than three moves from you!"

Duan Ling Tian was strolling the streets as usual when he overheard this conversation. He was briefly stunned before he shook his head and smiled.

'The Wang clan is quite good at keeping my identity a secret. No one even knows that I'm almost as strong as a peerless top advanced Supreme God…'

After learning more about the Outer Boundary, Duan Ling Tian had only realized recently how remarkable his current strength was at his age. It had to be said that someone like him was not unprecedented in the Outer Boundary or even the Myriad Worlds. Due to their young age and great potential, they were very famous even if they were not a peerless top advanced Supreme God or a supreme powerhouse.

After all, if Duan Ling Tian was in his twilight years, his strength that was almost comparable to a peerless top advanced Supreme God would not be considered extraordinary. Moreover, if he were old, his potential of becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God or a supreme powerhouse would decrease greatly since he carried a greater risk of dying during his Heavenly Tribulation. Moreover, although it was possible to become a supreme powerhouse without becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God first, the chances of doing so were not very high. Apart from that, it was also more difficult for one to achieve a breakthrough in one's old age unless one had fortuitous encounters.

After coming to the Outer Boundary, Duan Ling Tian's knowledge about cultivation had also grown.

'There's a difference in strength even for new supreme powerhouses…'

Before becoming a supreme powerhouse, one could only be a top peerless advanced Supreme God or close to becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God. As expected, the former would be stronger than the latter once they both become supreme powerhouses. In fact, the former was considerably stronger than those who were only almost comparable to peerless top advanced Supreme Gods before becoming supreme powerhouses even if they were already supreme powerhouses for tens of thousands of years.

'One's innate talent and comprehension skills are crucial in becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God. Since I have two Supreme Powerhouse Divinities, I have a chance of becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God. They'll be able to help with my cultivation greatly, but they won't be able to guarantee that I'll become a peerless top advanced Supreme God…'

Duan Ling Tian naturally knew that the two Supreme Powerhouse Divinities he possessed would guarantee his chances of becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God. If it was so easy to become a peerless top advanced Supreme Gods, there would have been more of them in the Outer Boundary and the Myriad Worlds. Based on what he had learned, he found out that not even 10% of supreme powerhouses were peerless top advanced Supreme Gods before they became supreme powerhouses.

Duan Ling Tian was rather shocked when he first learned how difficult it was to become a peerless top advanced Supreme God.

'There were rumors that those who were only almost comparable to peerless top advanced Supreme Gods deliberately suppressed their breakthrough into the realm of supreme powerhouses. They wanted to wait until they became peerless top advanced Supreme Gods before breaking through into the realm of supreme powerhouses. I heard that raising one's strength after becoming a supreme powerhouse is very difficult. As such, becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God before becoming a supreme powerhouse would give one the advantage over others who did not. Needless to say, if one were young, it's best to strive to become a peerless advanced top Supreme God first instead of a supreme powerhouse. Apparently, the sense of achievement when becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God is much greater than when becoming a supreme powerhouse. That aside, supreme powerhouses look highly upon peerless top advanced Supreme Gods since the latter possess great potential to become a top supreme powerhouse. Moreover, there are many fortuitous encounters in the Outer Boundary that supreme powerhouses aren't able to access. As such, it'll be beneficial for these supreme powerhouses to have peerless top advanced Supreme Gods on their sides and could help them…'

At this time, Duan Ling Tian was filled with the ambition to become a peerless top advanced Supreme God. The idea had taken root so firmly in his mind that he felt that he was being constantly reminded to cultivate and grow stronger until he became a peerless top advanced Supreme God.

'Yun Qing Yan is now a supreme powerhouse after being possessed by that person from the Soul Imprisonment Clan. However, according to the Xia Clan's ancestor, he's just an ordinary supreme powerhouse… If I become a supreme powerhouse without becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God first, I might not be stronger than him. At that time, it would be difficult for me to force him to release Ke'er…'

Duan Ling Tian's expression turned grim when he thought of his wife, Ke'er. He naturally did not forget his purpose for coming to the Outer Boundary.

'Even if I manage to become a peerless top advanced Supreme God, it'll take some time for me to become a supreme powerhouse… However, once I become a peerless top advanced Supreme God, some supreme powerhouses might approach me. At that time, I might be able to strike a deal with them; I'll ask them to capture Yun Qing Yan and force him to release Ke'er. With that, I'll be able to save Ke'er before I become a supreme powerhouse.'

'There's a chance that the top supreme powerhouses in the Outer Boundary or the Myriad Worlds can release Ke'er from the technique themselves. There might not be a need to capture Yun Qing Yan at all. A member of the Soul Imprisonment Clan who's stronger than Yun Qing Yan can easily free Ke'er!'

Duan Ling Tian's eyes lit up when he thought about this. He clenched his hands tightly as his eyes shone with determination to become a peerless top advanced Supreme God so he could save Ke'er!
