Chapter 2927: It’s Really An Iron Wall

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

While Huan’er was enraged by the eight men’s unbridled gaze, Duan Ling Tian looked at the middle-aged man with an average height that was referred to as Old Second by the leader of the group of nine people as he said indifferently, “Hmm, it seems like you’re quite loyal…”

Duan Ling Tian’s purple robe fluttered in the air as he rose to his feet. In just a moment, he stood next to Huan’er before he gently placed his hand on her shoulder.

“Brother Ling Tian, you’re awake?” Huan’er’s attention had been focused on the nine men before her that she did notice Duan Ling Tian had awakened from his cultivation.

“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded with a faint smile on his face before he said, “It seems like I better carry us for the rest of our journey. Otherwise, who knows how many flies will come buzzing around us?” He looked at her with a doting gaze, and he spoke as though only two of them existed in the world. He did not even spare the group of men a look.

Meanwhile, Old Second still had not recovered from Duan Ling Tian’s indifferent gaze. He had met many people before, but he had only seen a few people with a gaze that was completely calm and devoid of panic. Those few times he had encountered people with such a gaze, he had learned that those who possessed such a gaze usually had the situation under their control. He shuddered inwardly as the ominous feeling in his heart continued to grow. ‘He’s too composed…’

‘It seems like we’ve met an iron wall this time,’ Old Second thought to himself. He thought about dissuading the other eight men again, but when he saw their hungry gazes as they looked at the white-clad woman, he gave up. He knew his eight companions were currently blinded by desire. No matter how he tried to dissuade them, it would only be in vain. He had thought, perhaps, they might be lucky and avoid a disaster, but when he saw Duan Ling Tian’s calm gaze, all his hopes vanished. ‘Let it be. If it weren’t for big brother, I would’ve died previously. Since I should’ve died back then, I’ll just consider this as repaying him.”

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, the eight men were enraged.

“Flies?”

“He called us flies?”

“Does this brat have a death wish?”

The leader of the men, a short middle-aged man, glared at Duan Ling Tian as his body emitted killing intent. He flew toward Duan Ling Tian as he roared. “Brat, since you have a death wish, I’ll fulfill your wish!”

As the short middle-aged man flew out, his Celestial Origin Energy surged out and gathered in his hands. Then, he struck Duan Ling Tian at lightning speed.

Although Duan Ling Tian was not threatened by the short middle-aged man’s attack, he was displeased by the sudden attack. With just a thought, his body began to glow dazzlingly bright with a golden light that subsequently turned into a golden Buddha silhouette. ‘The Immobilization King Method!’

As soon as the golden Buddha silhouette enveloped Duan Ling Tian, the expressions of the short middle-aged man and the eight men behind him changed slightly. All of them, except for Old Second, looked at Duan Ling Tian greedily.

“The Immobilization King Method is a triple trait Duke Grade Celestial Method from the Cross Region’s Blissful Sect! It’s an offensive-defensive-movement Celestial Method!”

“It’s not just that! It seems like this guy has completely mastered the Immobilization King Method.”

“That’s right. With his mastery, he’ll be able to record the Celestial Method in a Memory Celestial Talisman for others to comprehend!”

Then, the seven men shouted one after another, afraid that their leader would forget himself and kill Duan Ling Tian.

“Big brother, don’t be too harsh!”

“Big brother, spare him! He’s a walking and talking triple-trait Duke Grade Celestial Method!”

The leader who was charging toward Duan Ling Tian, naturally, shared the same thought as his companions. He quickly restrained a large amount of his strength to weaken his attack.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Although the short middle-aged man had weakened his blow, it was not that weak. When his attack landed, a loud explosion rang in the air.

Nevertheless, as soon as the earth-shaking attack landed on the golden Buddha silhouette, it left barely a ripple on the golden Buddha silhouette. It remained unmoving like a mountain or an impenetrable fortress.

“As expected of the Duke Grade Celestial Method from the Blissful Sect. It’s truly powerful!” Despite the futility of his attack, the short middle-aged man was still unaware of Duan Ling Tian’s terrifying strength. He had assumed his attack had failed because of the Duke Grade Celestial Method, not Duan Ling Tian’s strength. Therefore, he increased the strength of his attack on Duan Ling Tian.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

However, even as the man continued to increase the strength of his attack, he discovered he could not breach Duan Ling Tian’s offense at all. Even then, he did not give up and continued attacking with increasing ferocity.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

After a while, the short middle-aged man finally realized something was amiss. He studied the purple-clad young man whom he had previously dismissed as being weak and found the purple-clad young man staring at him indifferently with a smile that was not quite a smile.

Old Second did not look surprised. It seemed as though this was all within his expectations.

On the contrary, the seven men’s expressions changed drastically.

“This… W-what’s going on?”

“Earlier, big brother had used almost all his strength to attack, but he still failed to breach that young man’s defenses!”

“Heavens! The Blissful Sect’s Duke Grade Celestial Method is too powerful, right?”

“Is it really the Blissful Sect’s Celestial Method? I’m suddenly unsure… Even if we completely mastered it, I’m afraid it’d still be difficult for us to withstand big brother’s full attack, right? Moreover, look at how nonchalant he is! It’s like it’s easy for him to deflect big brother’s attack!”

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian looked at the short middle-aged man indifferently and said in an unhurried tone, “Now that you’ve attacked me, it should be my turn now, right?”

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, the short middle-aged man’s expression changed drastically. He opened his mouth to speak, but alas, before words could leave his mouth, it was already too late.

Swoosh!

A purple sword energy shot out like a shooting star and pierced the short middle-aged man’s forehead. As the purple sword energy exited from the back of the short middle-aged man’s head, an explosion rang in the air.

Boom!

The air around the spot where the short middle-aged man stood rippled violently for a moment as blood rained down. The only thing left of the short middle-aged man was a Spatial Ring that Duan Ling Tian collected.

The eight men could not catch Duan Ling Tian’s movements at all. All they heard was the sound of an explosion before their leader exploded into a blood mist! Their leader had died, just like that!

Old Second sighed heavily, seemingly resigned to his fate. He had already foreseen this outcome earlier.

On the other hand, the other seven men’s expressions changed drastically. The short middle-aged man was their leader, and most importantly, the only Celestial Duke among their ranks. The purple-clad young man had killed their leader, a One Basic Celestial Duke, with just one move! Even with the Blissful Sect’s Duke Grade Celestial Method, only Three Talents Celestial Dukes and those who were stronger were capable of such a feat. All of their faces were pale as they looked at each other with a fearful expression on their faces.

“It’s really as Second Brother said… W-we really kicked an iron wall!”

Soon enough, the seven men followed in the footsteps of their leader… Even a One Basic Celestial Duke had been easily killed, how could the seven men who were only Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials put up a resistance?

Old Second stood still, waiting for Duan Ling Tian to kill him. To his surprise, he heard Duan Ling Tian said, “You, there! Collect their Spatial Rings!” He was stunned speechless for a long time.

When Duan Ling Tian saw Old Second seemed to have fallen into a daze, he raised an eyebrow and asked, “What? Do you want to follow them in their deaths as well?”

Old Second snapped back to his senses when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words and hastily collected the seven Spatial Rings that were falling from the sky. Despite feeling apprehensive about Duan Ling Tian’s plans for him, he could not help but sigh in relief. It seemed like Duan Ling Tian did not intend to kill him. He respectfully passed the Spatial Rings to Duan Ling Tian. “S-senior…”

Duan Ling Tian looked at Old Second indifferently and said, “You can keep them.”

Old Second was still in a daze when a powerful energy suddenly surged out of Duan Ling Tian’s body.

Boom!

The energy that surged out of Duan Ling Tian’s body was that of a Celestial King, unlike the energy he had used earlier to kill the other men.

The energy pressed down on Old Second’s body, making him feel as though his chest was being pounded by a huge hammer. His blood qi surged, causing him to feel dizzy.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian’s indifferent voice rang in Old Second’s ears. “Use your cultivation method now and break through the bottleneck!”
