Chapter 2582 Like a God

At this moment, all eight Decurions of the Silverwyrm Army, including Wang Wei, could clearly see how much Duan Ling Tian had held back during his earlier fight with Wang Wei!

“Damn it! How can he b-be so strong? Currently, he’s not any weaker than the centurions!” Wang Wei was shocked. Initially, he had glared at Duan Ling Tian fiercely like a hungry wolf staring at his prey. However, now that he had witnessed Duan Ling Tian’s strength, his expression had changed to one of fear. He truly did not expect the purple-clad young man who had just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven was so strong. Even when the purple-clad young man had held back his strength earlier, the purple-clad young man could still easily defeat him.

“H-how is it possible?”

“Not to mention he was just an Eminent Celestial before he entered the Celestial Ascension Pool, even a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial who has just ascended wouldn’t be this strong, right?”

“Based on his current strength, he is not weaker than any of our centurions in the Silverwyrm Army.”

“His strength is indeed on par with our two centurions!”

“Don’t forget our two Centurions had also raised their strength after they wielded their Celestial Weapons. The purple-clad young man is not wielding a Celestial Weapon at all!”

“Then, doesn’t this mean if he has a Celestial Weapon, he would be stronger than our two centurions?”

“Well, it sounds absurd, but it’s a fact.”

Similarly, the other seven decurions were shocked by Duan Ling Tian’s strength. None of them had expected him to withhold so much of his strength earlier. The old man who had questioned Duan Ling Tian earlier could not help but break out in cold sweat. After all, he was furious when Duan Ling Tian had ignored his question. He had almost attacked Duan Ling Tian because of that. However, he did not get a chance to attack since Wang Wei had made a move first. He truly felt lucky he did not manage to attack first. Otherwise, the outcome would definitely not be good for him.

During the brief discussion among the group of decurions, Duan Ling Tian’s Sword Battle Formation was about to collide with the two centurions’ attacks that were cast from their sword and saber.

‘Ten Thousands Soldiers Surrender!’ With just a thought, a mysterious force shot out of the Sword Battle Formation. It seemed to have a life of its own.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The mysterious power shot toward the two centurions’ Celestial Weapons and entwined itself around them before snatching it away. After that, it returned to Duan Ling Tian.

“What’s happening?”

“How’s this possible?”

The two Centurions only regained their senses when the Celestial Weapons in their hands flew out of their hands, injuring them. Their expressions were one of shock and incredulity. They could clearly sense the force that had snatched their Celestial Weapons away was not something they could resist. In a panic, they tried to summon their Celestial Weapons back to their Spatial Rings but to no avail. They discovered the bond between them and their weapons had been severed, leaving them with no way to summon their weapons back.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Once the two centurions’ Celestial Weapons were snatched away, their attacks collided with Duan Ling Tian’s Sword Battle Formation, causing an earth-shattering explosion.

The wind began to blow violently, wreaking havoc in all directions. At the same time, a terrifying and destructive shockwave spread out in all directions as well.

The eight Decurions hurriedly mobilized their internal power to form a protective shield around themselves. Otherwise, even if they did not die, they would be gravely injured. While they stayed protected in their shield, the eight decurions began to discuss among themselves again. They saw Duan Ling Tian’s Sword Battle Formation only managed to nullify half of the attacks from the two centurions. The remaining force of the attacks was still sweeping toward Duan Ling Tian destructively as though it would not stop until Duan Ling Tian was dead.

“In the end, it seems like the combined attacks of our two centurions are stronger!”

“Under such circumstances, this young man who has just ascended will probably die!”

“But would the two Lord Centurions really kill him? If he dies, the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities he has mastered would disappear along with him!”

“Ah, that’s too bad if that happens.”

When the eight decurions thought about the rare methods Duan Ling Tian had mastered and how he was about to die, they could not help but feel their hearts ache. They did not care if he lived or died, they cared about his Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. This was also one of the reasons their centurions had come over.

“He can’t die!”

“Don’t let him die!”

The two centurions cried out in unison. At this moment, they had forgotten about their Celestial Weapons that had been taken away. They were more anxious about Duan Ling Tian getting killed by the remnants of their attack. If the purple-clad young man who had just ascended died, they would not be able to obtain his rare Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities! Their trip here would have been in vain!

Bang! Bang!

The two Centurions lifted their legs simultaneously and stomped in the air. Their energies surged to bring them toward their combined attacks that were speeding toward Duan Ling Tian like a beast baring its fangs and claws.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

At the same time, the two centurions lifted their hands and cast all kinds of methods to stop their attacks from landing on Duan Ling Tian. They clearly intended to save Duan Ling Tian. However, since their Celestial Weapons had been taken away, they were powerless to save Duan Ling Tian.

“Damn it!”

“If I still have my Celestial Weapon, I would’ve been able to stop the attack!”

When the two Centurions saw their earlier attack was about to land on Duan Ling Tian and devour him like a giant beast, they could not help but feel upset. If that strange and mysterious force did not take their Celestial Weapons away, they would have been able to save the purple-clad young man who had just ascended. Now, they could only watch helplessly as their attack killed the purple-clad young man. If he were alive, they could have imprisoned him and tortured him to teach them his Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities!

“What a pity!” The two centurions sighed in unison. They truly felt regretful about the loss of the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. If it were not for that, they did not care if Duan Ling Tian lived or died. They were still lamenting the loss of the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities when…

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The sounds of sword howling in the air rang suddenly just as the remnant of the two centurions’ combined attack was about to land on Duan Ling Tian. They saw their attacks shattering before they saw the familiar purple figure emerging out of the chaos like a god. There was a Sword Battle Formation before him, and it looked stronger than the one before.

“He… H-he held back his strength again earlier?”

“H-how is this possible?”

The two centurions’ eyes looked as though they were going to pop out of their sockets when they saw the Sword Battle Formation had easily shattered their attacks.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

After crushing the combined attack from the two centurions, the Sword Battle Formation continued forward and crushed all the techniques that the two centurions had cast earlier to stop their combined attacks. The entire process was very smooth, and it did not look like it was losing momentum at all as it continued on its trajectory.

“Am I going to die?”

“Not even in my wildest dream did I think that I would be killed by a Crimson Moon Heavenly Celestial. Moreover, he’s a Crimson Moon Heavenly Celestial who has just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven!”

When the two Centurions saw the Sword Battle Formation was about to hit them and felt the intimidating Sword Qi, they fell into despair. They were certain they were going to die,

Contrary to their expectations, the Sword Battle Formation vanished into thin air suddenly. Only two streaks of light remained as it shot back into Duan Ling Tian’s hand.

“That’s my Celestial Sword!”

“That’s my Celestial Saber!”

The two centurions cried out in unison. They recognized the streaks of light that returned to Duan Ling Tian were their Celestial Sword and Celestial Saber!
