Chapter 3072: The Nine Palaces Celestial King Assassin

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Duan Ling Tian did not know that his family and friends who were imprisoned by Yun Qing Yan, in an attempt to threaten him, had been safely sent to the mundane realms from the Divine Offering Land by Ke’er’s uncle, Xia Jie.

After entering the spatial tunnel, each of them had different experiences. Among those Duan Ling Tian cared about, only Ke’er was still in the Divine Offering Land. To be more precise, she was now in the Realm Battlefield that was opened to the Divine Offering Land and the other realms.

Duan Ling Tian was also, naturally, unaware that the three little fellows that had a fortuitous encounter had left the Ten Thousand Beast Heaven and returned to their hometown in the Saint Province Realm in search of him.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was completely focused on comprehending the law of fire’s Burning Profundity and Explosion Profundity. He was completely oblivious to what was going on outside. While he focused on comprehending the two profundities from the law of fire, he was waiting for Ling Jue Yun to come to him two years later so they could leave the Spirit Overarching Heaven and make their way to the Jade Emperor Heaven. Although he had decided to visit the Jade Emperor Heaven, he was not sure if he would continue to stay in the Jade Emperor Heaven. If things went according to plan, he should return to the Spirit Overarching Heaven. After all, he still needed to repay the favor he owed to Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. In any case, regardless of where he was, the most important thing was for him to quickly improve his strength before 1,000 years was up. 1,000 years were not long, and he needed to get as strong as possible to rescue his family and friends in the Divine Offering Land.

Five years had passed since Duan Ling Tian began to stay in Sun Liang Peng’s residence. Wang Qian Zhan, the Grand Elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, was furious but helpless to do anything. “Does he really plan to stay in the sect leader’s residence forever?”

Wang Qian Zhan had been monitoring Duan Ling Tian constantly over the past five years. He was beginning to feel weary. Five years might not be a long time but to thoroughly monitor the same place for five years was tedious and a torment.

Outside of the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate.

An assassin from the Blood Skull Gang had been lying in wait outside the sect’s estate for the past four years. He was a Nine Palaces Celestial King assassin. It would be easy for such a powerful assassin to annihilate the Simplicity Celestial Sect. However, let alone annihilate the sect, he did not even have the courage to breach the sect’s defenses and enter the sect’s estate. After all, the Simplicity Celestial Sect was under the protection of the Profound Nether Mansion. Additionally, the Profound Nether Mansion was under one of the ruling top clans in the Southern Heaven Territory.

The assassin had also met with Sun Liang Peng to persuade Sun Liang Peng to give up Duan Ling Tian. However, he was firmly rejected by Sun Liang Peng. Furious and helpless, the assassin could only wait outside the sect’s estate. Fortunately for him, although Sun Liang Peng had soundly rejected him, he still had Wang Qiao Zhan on his side. Wang Qiao Zhan had been keeping an eye on things in the sect’s estate for him.

Alas, four years had passed, and yet, there were no movements from Duan Ling Tian. However, not only did he not leave the vicinity of the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate because he had yet to complete his mission, but he had even dug out a cave on the cliff of a steep mountain nearby. For the past four years, the cave had become his cultivation ground. Based on this, one could see he was determined to complete his mission. He waited patiently for the day when Duan Ling Tian had to leave the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate. As soon as there was news from Wang Qiao Zhan, he would immediately make his move and kill Duan Ling Tian!

Time continued to pass like a galloping horse. In just a blink of an eye, two years had passed.


About two years and a month later, Duan Ling Tian received a message from Ling Jue Yun. “Duan Ling Tian, I’ll wait for you in Axe Mountain. It’s located about 30 miles north of the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate… There’s a Transporting Formation set up by the Profund Nether Mansion there that’s able to transport us to various Devata Realms.”

“It’s finally time to leave…” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes brightened when he received Ling Jue Yun’s message. He stopped comprehending the law of fire’s Explosion Profundity immediately. He had completely comprehended the Burning Profundity three months ago and had full mastery over it now.

Currently, Duan Ling Tian had comprehended the law of fire’s Fire Elemental Profundity, the Pillaging Profundity, and the Burning Profundity.

A year ago, the Chaos Divine Earth, the Profound Divine Metal, and the Chaos Divine Flame had finally awakened from their slumber. The trio had fallen into a deep slumber previously because they had exhausted all of their strength to help Duan Ling Tian.

After responding to Ling Jue Yun’s message, Duan Ling Tian did not waste any time and sent a message to Sun Liang Peng. “Sect leader, I’ll need to leave the sect temporarily.”

In just a breaths’ time, Sun Liang Peng’s voice rang from outside Duan Ling Tian’s room. “Come out and let’s talk about this.”

Duan Ling Tian got off the ice bed and opened the door, revealing Sun Liang Peng who was standing at the entrance.

The duo walked out to Sun Liang Peng’s courtyard, and Sun Liang Peng sat on one of the two stone benches in front of a small stone table.

“Sect leader.” Duan Ling Tian was rather moved when he saw Sun Liang Peng appearing so quickly after receiving his message.

“Take a seat.” Sun Liang Peng gestured to Duan Ling Tian to sit down. He asked with a slight frown on his face. “Do you really need to leave?” In his opinion, Duan Ling Tian should know the predicament he was in. If Duan Ling Tian left the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate now, Duan Ling Tian would surely die! Yet, knowing these circumstances, Duan Ling Tian was still determined to leave. Therefore, he was certain Duan Ling Tian had a good reason for wanting to leave. For this reason, he did not dissuade Duan Ling Tian from leaving. He just wanted to ask about Duan Ling Tian’s reason for leaving.

“Yes, I must leave,” Duan Ling Tian replied solemnly.

“What’s the reason?” Sun Liang Peng asked bluntly.

“The Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit!” Duan Ling Tian did not hide this matter from Sun Liang Peng. If he successfully obtained the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit and returned to the Simplicity Celestial Sect as a Ten Directions Celestial Duke, Sun Liang Peng would still find out about it. Moreover, there was no need for him to worry about Sun Liang Peng coveting the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit since the fruit was only effective for those below Celestial Dukes.

“T-the H-heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit?!” Sun Liang Peng’s eyes widened, and his expression changed drastically.

Although the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit was not in any of the records in the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s library, as the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, he had, naturally, heard about the fruit from his peers in the Profound Nether Mansion.

The Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit was, indeed, a priceless treasure for those below Celestial Dukes. A peak Overarching Heavenly Golden Celestial would benefit tremendously from it. He or she could directly break through and become a Ten Directions Celestial Duke after consuming the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit.

Sun Liang Peng took a long time before he regained his senses. Although he had heard about the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit, he did not expect the heaven-defying fruit to really exist. Then, he asked skeptically, “Duan Ling Tian, are you sure it’s a Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit? It’s a legendary existence. I’ve heard that it had appeared in other Devata Realms before, but it hasn’t appeared in the Spirit Overarching Heaven before.”

Sun Liang Peng knew that even if someone planted the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit’s tree and offered enough sacrifices, its success rate of sprouting fruits was not more than 10%.

“Yes, I’m sure.” Duan Ling Tian nodded and revealed what Ling Jue Yun told him to Sun Liang Peng. However, he did not mention anything about Ling Jue Yun’s soul artifact since it would expose the fact that Ling Jue Yun possessed a Devata Artifact.

Unlike the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit that was useless to Sun Liang Peng, Devata Artifacts were different. Sun Liang Peng would definitely covet a Devata Artifact due to how precious and powerful it was. It would be of great use to Sun Liang Peng. For this reason, Duan Ling Tian lied and said Ling Jue Yun was capable of sensing the person was a reincarnated Celestial Emperor and knew that the reincarnated Celestial Emperor wanted to gather Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestials as a sacrifice to the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree in the secret realm. He also told Sun Liang Peng the secret realm was likely left behind by the reincarnated Celestial Emperor in his previous life and only those below Celestial Dukes could enter the realm.

“If there’s no doubt the person is a reincarnated Celestial Emperor, then it’s certain he’s deliberately looking for powerful Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestials like you to hasten the fruit-bearing process of the tree,” Sun Liang Peng said with a frown, “However, the sacrificial process will involve the deaths of many Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials… Moreover, that reincarnated Celestial Emperor must be extraordinary and certain he would be able to obtain the fruit. Apart from that, the secret realm was created by him in his past life. He might not be able to fully control the secret realm in his current state, but he would definitely have an advantage in the realm. For this reason, even if the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree successfully bears fruit, it won’t be easy for you to obtain the fruits. In fact, both you and your friend risk certain deaths!” In his opinion, it would be extremely challenging for Duan Ling Tian to obtain the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit even if its tree bore fruits.

Sun Liang Peng continued to say, “Even if you still have the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, you can’t use it in the realm since only those below the Celestial Dukes are allowed to enter. You might be forcibly sent out of the realm if you use your consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon!” It was clear that he was trying to reason with Duan Ling Tian and dissuade Duan Ling Tian from taking such a huge and unnecessary risk.
