Chapter 2348 Greed

“If I’m not mistaken, your assist-type Divine Ability should’ve come from a Devata Realm, right?” Chen Yi Ru, the Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, stared at Duan Ling Tian with greed in his eyes when he spoke. It might seem as though he was asking for confirmation, but the truth was he was extremely certain of it. He had extended his Divine Consciousness earlier to probe the surroundings, and he had discovered the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the radius of roughly 10,000 meters had almost completely disappeared. It was not difficult for him to figure out Duan Ling Tian had absorbed all the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy and raised his strength to this abnormal level. Since Duan Ling Tian had absorbed so much Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy, it was easy to figure out that it could raise his strength that was at the stage of an Eminent Celestial to a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. Duan Ling Tian’s assist-type Divine Ability was definitely not a common Divine Ability. It could not have come from a mundane realm.

Greed surged in Chen Yi Ru’s heart when he thought about Duan Ling Tian absorbing all the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the radius of roughly 10,000 meters. Even in the Devata Realms, it would still be considered a high-level Divine Ability. He really wanted to obtain this Divine Ability.

“Oh? You noticed?” Duan Ling Tian said indifferently as he glanced at Chen Yi Ru.

Chen Yi Ru scoffed and said confidently, “As a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, my Divine Consciousness is, naturally, strong. It’s not difficult for me to discover these things. I could clearly sense you’re only an Eminent Celestial earlier. However, after you cast your assist-type Divine Ability, your strength is comparable to a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial! Nobody would believe it if you say your assist-type Divine Ability isn’t from a Devata Realm.”

Chen Yi Ru did not bother to lower his voice, therefore, many people in the surroundings who stood 1,000 meters away heard his words clearly. They widened their eyes in shock when they heard his words.

“Divine Ability from a Devata Realm?”

Even Chen Yi Ru’s two followers were stunned. Although their master said Duan Ling Tian was an Eminent Celestial in the beginning, they thought their master was mistaken or Duan Ling Tian had used some technique to conceal his cultivation base. After seeing Duan Ling Tian’s strength, they did not expect Duan Ling Tian was truly an Eminent Celestial, and he had used a Divine Ability from a Devata Realm to raise his strength. What an amazing Divine Ability! It was able to raise the strength of an Eminent Celestial to the level of a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. Both the skinny and burly middle-aged men gasped in amazement.

At the same time, people standing in the surroundings began to discuss this among themselves.

“Based on Lord Chen Yi Ru’s words, Duan Ling Tian mastered an assist-type Divine Ability from a Devata Realm.”

“I thought Duan Ling Tian is a Bodiless Celestial as well. As it turns out, he’s only an Eminent Celestial. He’s only so strong because of his assist-type Divine Ability from a Devata Realm!”

“An assist-type Divine Ability from a Devata Realm? Rumor has it that the movement Divine Ability of Tang Xuan, the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect, is also from a Devata Realm. Duan Ling Tian used to be in the Fire Worship Sect. Could it be that the Fire Worship Sect has found a way to obtain Divine Abilities from Devata Realms?”

“I think it’s possible!”

Many of them came to the conclusion that Duan Ling Tian mastered this Divine Ability from the Fire Worship Sect. After all, Tang Xuan, the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect, was famous for mastering the number one movement Divine Ability in the Upper Province. They thought the Fire Worship Sect had Divine Abilities from Devata Realms.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Duan Ling Tian smiled and confirmed Chen Yi Ru’s words. “You’re truly smart.”

Everyone gasped when they heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. So it was true! Duan Ling Tian really did master an assist-type Divine Ability from a Devata Realm. Many people looked at Duan Ling Tian covetously at this moment… They looked at him as though he was prey. However, they seemed to have forgotten about an important fact; Duan Ling Tian was a prey that they were not capable of hunting. It seemed like the saying, ‘Greed causes the loss of intelligence’, was true.

Chen Yi Ru’s eyes shone as bright as the stars when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. “So I’m right!” His gaze turned condescending as he said, “Duan Ling Tian! There’s no doubt you’re as strong as I am after you cast your Divine Ability. However, I haven’t unleashed all my strength. The attack earlier, Peerless Saber, is the weakest one among my three saber martial techniques. I still have the World Cleansing Saber and World Annihilation Saber attacks! If I attack using the World Cleansing Saber, you’ll be severely injured even though you might not die. However, if I cast the World Annihilation Saber, you’ll definitely die.” He was very confident. He had assumed this was the limit of Duan Ling Tian’s strength.

When Duan Ling Tian heard Chen Yi Ru’s words, he asked lazily, “So?”

“If you’re willing to swear on the lightning penalty oath that after you’ve completely mastered this assist-type Divine Ability from the Devata Realm, you’ll share all your knowledge with me, I, a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, will swear on the lightning penalty oath to spare your life!” Chen Yi Ru said bluntly, revealing his intention. His motive was simple. He wanted to master Duan Ling Tian’s Divine Ability from a Devata Realm.

Chen Yi Ru thought to himself excitedly, ‘Even if I didn’t master this Divine Ability completely, and master it to Duan Ling Tian’s level, I won’t have to be afraid even if I have to face a Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!’ He was, naturally, very confident that Duan Ling Tian would cave under his threat and swear on the lightning penalty oath.

At this moment, everyone within 1,000 meters was staring at Duan Ling Tian intently. Similar to Chen Yi Ru, they thought this was the extent of Duan Ling Tian’s strength. Since Chen Yi Ru had revealed this was not the limit of his strength, they were curious if he would acquiesce to Chen Yi Ru’s demand

All of a sudden, Duan Ling Tian laughed uproariously as though he had just heard the funniest joke in the world.

Chen Yi Ru’s expression darkened, and he was about to attack when Duan Ling Tian stopped laughing. He smirked as he said, “What World Cleansing Saber or World Annihilation Saber? Aren’t they similar to that crop-harvesting technique you cast earlier? Don’t tell me you think I’ve unleashed all my strength earlier?” He looked at Chen Yi Ru with ridicule.

“W-what do you mean?” Chen Yi Ru felt an ominous feeling rose in his heart when he saw how confident Duan Ling Tian was.

“What do I mean?” Duan Ling Tian scoffed. He lifted his hand as white light shot out his palm before transforming into a three-foot-long sword that emitted an intimidating aura. His eyes turned cold as he cried out, “Sword Wielding Art!” The three-foot-long sword shot out instantly toward Chen Yi Ru.

Swoosh!

Rrripp!

The sound of a sword whistling rang in the air accompanied by the sound of the void tearing. Many terrifying cracks that were longer than the ones earlier began to appear. Moreover, it seemed like these cracks did not close as fast as the previous ones did.
