2486 The Dragon Clan’s Patriarch Is A Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?

Xiu!

A short-lived sword cry rang in the air.

A few Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestials who were present on the scene widened their eyes in horror immediately.

“Have mercy!”

“Stop this!”

Two voices ladened with urgency rang out in the air in unison, accompanied by the appearances of a middle-aged man and an old man. Unfortunately, they had arrived too late.

Puff!

A soft noise reverberated in the air as Supreme Elder Di Huan, a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, who was lunging toward Duan Ling Tian was killed in just an instant.

The dragon clan’s members who were present on the scene inhaled sharply when they saw this, horrified.

“H-how’s this possible?”

“Elder Di Huan is a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, he’s extremely strong! However, he could not even defend against Duan Ling Tian’s attack?”

“A-am I dreaming? Sect Leader Duan Ling Tian from the Seven Absolutes Sect killed Elder Di Huan with just a strike!”

Most of the dragon clan’s members did not see Di Huan moved. They only regained their senses when Di Huan had already died. Naturally, they were shocked. Moreover, Di Huan, one of the three Supreme Elders in the dragon clan, was the strongest after their elusive patriarch. How could they not feel shocked when they saw he was killed with just a strike? Chills ran down their spines when they thought about it.

After the sword ray pierced Di Huan’s glabella, the simple and unadorned sword flashed and transformed into a tall purple-clad figure. The figure was none other than Duan Ling Tian.

Earlier, when Di Huan made the first move and attacked, Duan Ling Tian had quickly cast the assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, and the fourth stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword, the Body Sword Fusion, before casting the Thirteen Green Lotus Swords. With all these combined, his strength was comparable to the full strength of an ordinary Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial! Since Di Huan was only a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, it was only natural that he could not defend against the attack and was instantly killed.

Duan Ling Tian stared at the horizon as he murmured, “Senior Brother Gu Li, I’ve avenged you…” He completely ignored the presence of the members of the dragon clan and the two powerhouses who had just arrived.

Gu Li was not only a member of the Seven Absolutes Sect, but he was also Duan Ling Tian’s friend and senior brother.

Meanwhile, the two powerhouses from the dragon clan who had just arrived stood in the distance. Their expressions were unsightly, but it was obvious they had no intention of attacking Duan Ling Tian. After all, they knew they were no match for Duan Ling Tian since they were also Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestials like Di Huan who had just been killed. Fear coursed through their veins when they recalled the scene earlier.

“Duan Ling Tian has gotten so strong?”

“It seems like the current Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect and the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny is as strong as Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang!”

During that time, Feng Qing Yang’s strength alone was a match for the entire dragon clan. It seemed like Feng Qing Yang’s successor was also as extraordinary as he was.

At this moment, many members of the dragon clan finally discovered the presence of these two powerhouses.

“It’s the Supreme Elders!”

“The two Supreme Elders came as well? It seems like they tried to stop Duan Ling Tian from killing Elder Di Huan earlier.”

“Stop Duan Ling Tian from killing Elder Di Huan? What a joke! Duan Ling Tian is capable of killing Elder Di Huan with a strike… Our two Supreme Elders are also Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestials. It’s impossible for them to stop Duan Ling Tian!”

“Based on the strength Duan Ling Tian displayed earlier, I’m afraid even if Elder Di Huan had joined forces with the two Supreme Elders, they still won’t be a match for Duan Ling Tian!”

“Isn’t that obvious?”

When Duan Ling Tian overheard the conversation in his surroundings, he raised an eyebrow.

“The two Supreme Elders of the dragon clan?” Then, he looked at the two powerhouses intently. When those two had arrived earlier, he knew they must have a high position in the dragon clan, but he did not expect them to be the Supreme Elders.

The two Supreme Elders were unnerved when they saw Duan Ling Tian staring at them intently as though they were afraid Duan Ling Tian would attack them as well.

Upon seeing this, Duan Ling Tian only smiled inwardly. “Well, I guess it’s time for me to leave.” Since he had already killed the culprit responsible for the deaths of Gu Li, Yue Wu Ying, and Han Xue Nai’s master, there was no reason for him to stay any longer. He was not worried about the dragon clan retaliating like they did before, and he was almost certain that the dragon clan would no longer dare to antagonize the Seven Absolutes Sect in the future. After all, he was very confident about his strength. Moreover, his wife, Ke’er, was strong enough to stop the dragon clan from antagonizing the sect.

At the moment Duan Ling Tian was about to lead, a loud scoff reverberated in the air, seemingly coming from all directions. The person who had scoffed spoke imperiously, “You’re planning to leave after killing my clan’s Supreme Elder? You’re Duan Ling Tian, the Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect? Do you really think there’s no one in the dragon clan who can defeat you?”

The two Supreme Elders of the dragon clan turned around and looked in the distance. They quickly bowed respectfully. “Lord Patriarch!”

Upon hearing this, the dragon clan’s members were taken aback. They followed the two Supreme Elders’ eyes and quickly bowed as well.

“Lord Patriarch?”

“Greetings, Lord Patriarch!”

“Greetings, Lord Patriarch!”

The strongest person in the dragon clan was the inner clan’s patriarch.

A dragon clan’s member thought to himself excitedly, ‘The Lord Patriarch has always been mysterious. I’ve never met him before. I really didn’t expect I’d be able to meet him today due to the commotion Duan Ling Tian caused.’ After all, he revered the inner clan’s patriarch as though the patriarch was God himself.

The other members of the dragon clan were also looking at the distance with an expression of anticipation on their faces.

Whoosh!

A gust of wind began to blow as a figure appeared in the distance. The figure belonged to a tall old man. His face was square with strong features. His eyebrows lent him an imposing aura, and he wore a golden robe. With just a glance, one could tell he was someone who had been at the top of the food chain for a long time. At this moment, the golden-clad old man’s eyes were trained on Duan Ling Tian.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian who was about to leave came to halt immediately as soon as he heard the old man’s voice. He was not anxious at all. He fearlessly met the old man’s gaze. After a while, he said, “The world thinks the patriarch of the dragon clan is an Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. I bet they wouldn’t expect you to be a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!”

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, the dragon clan’s patriarch was taken aback. “You can tell that I’m a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?” With an expression of surprise etched on his face, he had lost some of his imposing aura.

Duan Ling Tian could not help but feel smug upon hearing the dragon clan’s patriarch’s words. Before entering the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone, he definitely would not be able to see through the old man’s cultivation base. However, after meeting a few Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone, he had gotten familiar with the unique aura of a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial.

Duan Ling Tian’s words and the golden-clad old man’s confirmation shocked all the members of the dragon clan, except for the two Supreme Elders.

“N-nine… Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?”
