Chapter 4636
4636 The Heaven Traversing Pagoda’s New Change
“He personally went to the God Defying World’s Divine Offering Land?”
In Feng Qing Yang’s opinion, Lei Hong’s action was tantamount to seeking death. After all, the Divine Offering Land was part of Duan Ling Tian’s Little World, which meant that Duan Ling Tian could return in almost no time at all. Duan Ling Tian might not locate Lei Hong immediately if Lei Hong came to the God Defying World. However, as soon as Lei Hong stepped into the Divine Offering Land, Duan Ling Tian would be able to pinpoint Lei Hong’s exact location and even discern if Lei Hong had come personally or if it was just his doppelganger.
“Did you capture him?”
...With Duan Ling Tian’s strength, Feng Qing Yang knew that it would be easy for Duan Ling Tian to deal with Lei Hong, an ordinary level-seven supreme powerhouse. Moreover, Lei Hong had gone to the Divine Offering Land, which gave Duan Ling Tian the advantage.
However, Feng Qing Yang asked this question because he felt like something was amiss. If Duan Ling Tian killed Lei Hong, a terrifying phenomenon to announce Lei Hong’s death would appear everywhere. He had left his doppelganger in the God Defying World so he would have seen the phenomenon if it appeared. Even the death of an imminent World supreme powerhouse and a World supreme powerhouse would trigger a phenomenon, which would bring about torrential blood rain. It was as though it was a manifestation of heaven’s wrath. One could only imagine how terrible the phenomenon that announced the death of a level-seven supreme powerhouse would be.
Duan Ling Tian’s expression was very calm so Feng Qing Yang could not guess what had happened. However, even if Duan Ling Tian could not kill Lei Hong, he felt that it should not be a problem for Duan Ling Tian to capture Lei Hong.
“He got away,” Duan Ling Tian said as he shook his head.
“He got away?! How’s that possible?!” Feng Qing Yang was shocked.
‘Did he possess some kind of life-saving trump card?’
This was the first thought that appeared in Feng Qing Yang’s mind, and he quickly asked Duan Ling Tian about it. After all, he knew things were not as simple as they seemed. With Duan Ling Tian’s strength, it would be very easy for him to stop Lei Hong from leaving the Divine Offering Land.
Duan Ling Tian nodded and recounted what had happened. He also expressed his confusion about Lei Hong’s actions, which were rather cowardly.
“He possessed a life-saving trump card left behind by a supreme powerhouse from before the historical gap who was at least at the eighth level?”
Feng Qing Yang inhaled sharply. He did not expect Lei Hong to possess such a life-saving trump card, which must have been created with great effort by the supreme powerhouse from before the historical gap.
“With that thing, even if I were present at that time, I still wouldn’t be able to help you to detain him…” Feng Qing Yang said with a sigh. He thought that it was a pity that Duan Ling Tian failed to capture or kill Lei Hong.
“He won’t be so lucky next time,” Duan Ling Tian said as his eyes shone with killing intent, “I believe he only has one item like that…”
Duan Ling Tian had seen the reluctance in Lei Hong’s eyes when Lei Hong used that life-saving trump card. As such, he was certain that Lei Hong did not have anything similar hidden up his sleeve.
Thanks to the Void Elder’s memory, Duan Ling Tian knew how difficult it was to forge such an item. It would take at least 10,000 years to forge such an item, and it would only be given to the most promising descendant to ensure his or her survival.
Feng Qing Yang smiled wryly. “He probably won’t dare to enter the God Defying World so easily next time…”
Duan Ling Tian was not worried that Lei Hong would never come to the God Defying World again. After all, it was impossible for a level-seven supreme powerhouse like Lei Hong to live a cowardly life forever. However, if Lei Hong truly stayed in hiding forever due to his cowardice, he could accept it even if it meant he would not have a chance to kill Lei Hong.
After a moment, Duan Ling Tian shifted his attention to Xue Qing Zhu. He changed the subject and said with a smile, “Master, after this epiphany, Xue Qing Zhu’s strength might not be inferior to yours… After this, when she comes to you to fulfill the bet, you must seize the opportunity. Win her over as soon as you can. If she doesn’t become your wife, my efforts today will be in vain…”
Feng Qing Yang glared at Duan Ling Tian out of embarrassment. After a moment, he said, “When she’s done, we should spar so I can have a look at your Sword Dao at the eighth stage. I had no idea your Sword Dao had improved again. You hid your ability really well…”
“I only broke through recently,” Duan Ling Tian replied with a smile.
After a while, Duan Ling Tian decided to leave even though Xue Qing Zhu showed no signs of waking up yet. After all, with Feng Qing Yang’s presence, there was no need for him to stay back.
Meanwhile, when Xue Qing Zhu woke up and saw Feng Qing Yang guarding her, she could not help but feel deeply moved again.
…
Three days after Duan Ling Tian returned to the God Defying World, a heavenly text appeared again. However, this time, it announced the Heaven Traversing Pagoda’s change.
‘From this day onward, an entrance surrounded by purple lightning bolts will appear at every entrance of the Heaven Traversing Pagoda. Ordinary supreme powerhouses can enter these entrances. Those who successfully pass the challenges will be given a chance to observe the laws and the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth that supreme powerhouses before the historical gap comprehended. This method of cultivation will yield twice the results with half the effort.’
‘The observation will be carried out in an exclusive independent realm where one’s Divine Energy and the like will be suppressed to those of an advanced Supreme God. This will help with one’s comprehension. After leaving the realm, one’s original strength will return to normal.’
Duan Ling Tian frowned when he read the heavenly text. It seemed like heaven was deliberately helping ordinary supreme powerhouses to grow stronger.
Previously, the appearance of the Heaven Traversing Pagoda and the Heaven Protection Talisman was to target Duan Ling Tian and Feng Qing Yang. However, this new upgrade seemed to target all level-seven supreme powerhouses and even those powerful level-five and level-six supreme powerhouses.
Many level-five and level-six supreme powerhouses were once peerless top advanced Supreme Gods. Many of them held back from entering the realm of supreme powerhouses because doing so would increase the difficulty of comprehending laws. As such, many of them comprehended their respective laws to the paramount stage before entering the realm of supreme powerhouses.
Apart from ordinary supreme powerhouses, the sudden change would also change things for advanced Supreme Gods. They could now enter the Heaven Traversing Pagoda as soon as they entered the realms of supreme powerhouses, and if they succeeded in passing the challenges, they would not face problems their predecessors faced. Unlike their predecessors, they now had a chance to enter an independent realm to observe the laws and Four Daos of Heaven and Earth of supreme powerhouses from before the historical gap.
