Chapter 4695 Is His Surname Duan?

In just a blink of an eye, the two men who had forced Duan Nian Tian and the young man to hide had gone far away. Duan Nian Tian and the young man, who had clearly heard their conversation, exchanged a look.

After a while, the young man broke the silence, saying, "Nian Tian, I remember you mentioned that you and the others from the world within the Life Creation Chart came to the Divine Land several decades ago. I'm surprised that someone has already entered the Dao Merging realm so quickly! Also, didn't you say that in your world, the most powerful person was comparable to a level-eight Dao Establishment cultivator?"

Duan Nian Tian had discussed matters regarding the world within the Life Creation Chart, the Myriad Worlds and the Outer Boundary, with his friend. However, he did not disclose much about his family and did not mention the most powerful person in the world within the Life Creation Chart was his father, Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Nian Tian nodded. As far as he knew, before the upheaval in the Life Creation Chart and the migration to the Divine Land, his father was the only level-eight supreme powerhouse, which was equivalent to a level-eight Dao Establishment powerhouse in the Divine Land. His grandmaster, Feng Qing Yang, might have become a level-seven Dao Establishment powerhouse ahead of Duan Ling Tian; he still remained at the same level before they ended up in the Divine Land.

'Could it be father? Duan Nian Tian wondered inwardly as his eyes lit up with excitement. In his opinion, among the people who came to the Divine Land, his father had the highest chance of becoming a Dao Merging powerhouse first, followed by Feng Qing Yang.

The young man continued to speculate, "Nian Tian, is there a hidden powerhouse you're unaware of in the world within the Life Creation Chart? After all, it's unlikely even for a prodigious level-eight Dao Establishment cultivator to enter the Dao Merging realm in such a short time, unlike becoming a level-nine Dao Establishment cultivator. It's difficult to enter the Dao Merging realm after all. There are only a few dozen Dao Merging powerhouses in the Divine Land as it is. On the other hand, there are hundreds of level-nine Dao Establishment cultivators!"

There were many Dao Establishment cultivators In the Divine Land. Even powerful level-nine Dao Establishment cultivators were numbered in the hundreds.

For instance, in the Surging River Divine Kingdom and the Temple of Bitter Sea, although there were only three level-nine Dao Establishment powerhouses known to the public, in reality, there were still many of them who were not known to the public because they had left.

They left the Surging River Divine Kingdom or the Temple of Bitter Sea because the Dao Merging powerhouses in those two places could not help them comprehend the Myriad Dao due to the differences in their Daos. They left to look for opportunities or to join forces with Dao Merging powerhouses who could help them comprehend the Myriad Daos.

"Out of ten level-nine Dao Establishment cultivators, perhaps only one would successfully become a Dao Merging powerhouse. The others are doomed to fail until the end of their lives."

At the same time, Duan Nian Tian wondered if the new Dao Merging powerhouse from the Surging River Divine Kingdom was Duan Ling Tian or Feng Qing Yang. He also wondered if perhaps there was someone from the Myriad Worlds or the Outer Boundary who was stronger than his father and grandmaster.

'In any case, perhaps this is my chance to leave this place…' Duan Nian Tian thought to himself as his eyes flashed with determination.

Duan Nian Tian was to be confined on this solitary island until his death. The people who guarded the island naturally did not dare to offend the Vice Leader of the Mountain Alliance.

"Yue Qiang, let's go back first."

Duan Nian Tian signaled to his companion and left. Then, when Yue Qiang began supervising the miners, he made his way to the two men, whom he had overheard talking earlier.

The two men were only level-one Dao Establishment powerhouses, but they were rather important figures in the Mountain Alliance. One of them was in charge of this island, while the other was responsible for bringing people back and forth to collect the minerals excavated from this place.

At this moment, someone said to the duo, "Lord Xue Ping, Lord Sheng An, Duan Nian Tian said he has an urgent matter to discuss with you."

Needless to say, Duan Nian Tian was not qualified to meet the duo directly.

"Duan Nian Tian?" Sheng An frowned. "This name sounds somewhat familiar..."

Xue Ping chuckled. "It's not strange that you find his name familiar. That kid was brought here by Miss Guo several decades ago. She had ordered for him to be confined to this place until he died."

"Oh, I remember him now!"

Realization dawned on Sheng An. He had heard about this back then and could not understand Duan Nian Tian's choice. After all, if Duan Nian Tian had married Miss Guo, he would have risen in ranks in the Mountain Alliance. However, Duan Nian Tian refused Miss Guo and rather be confined to an island for the rest of his life.

"However, why is he looking for us?" Sheng An was somewhat puzzled.

"We'll know once he's here, won't we?" Xue Ping smiled.

When Duan Nian Tian was led over, Xue Ping asked nonchalantly, "Duan Nian Tian, I heard you have an urgent matter to discuss with us. What is it?"

Duan Nian Tian glanced at the other people nearby.

Seeing this, Xue Ping narrowed his eyes. Clearly, Duan Nian Tian did not want others to listen in on what he had to say. This made him very curious, so he ordered the others away.

"Can you speak now?" Sheng An was also very curious, wanting to know what he wanted to discuss with them.

"My lords, before I start, I'd like to ask you something, The new Dao Merging powerhouse from the Surging River Divine Kingdom… Is his surname Duan?" Duan Nian Tian asked and held his breath, fearing the answer would be a 'no'. After all, his plan to escape this place hinged on the answer to his question. Otherwise, he would have to wait until he had entered the Dao Establishment realm before he could leave, and it would take a very long time. Since there might be a chance to leave now, he naturally did not want to wait foolishly.
