Chapter 3170: The Supreme Powerhouse Divinity

After Wan Qing Qing left the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, Duan Ling Tian returned to the Profound Nether Mansion’s base. Just as she had said, he was confident he would remain in first place for the month with his current points. He could have stayed in the middle realm to accumulate points, but he knew it was unlikely for him to be able to gain a huge number of points at this point in time. Therefore, it was better for him to save time and leave the middle realm as well.

When Duan Ling Tian returned to the base, a group of Ten Directions Celestial Dukes greeted him respectfully and even addressed him as their senior. Since they knew Duan Ling Tian had made it to the top, they, naturally, admired the young man who was not even 100 years old. Their enthusiasm was not dampened by their assumption that he was just hired by the Profound Nether Mansion to help them.

Swoosh!

When Duan Ling Tian arrived at one of the sites of the Transporting Formation in the Profound Nether Mansion’s estate, many people were already gathered to wait for his arrival.

Hundreds and thousands of eyes shifted to Duan Ling Tian as soon as he arrived, and everyone began to cheer.

“Senior Duan Ling Tian, you’re really amazing for obtaining more than 1,000 points!”

“Senior Duan Ling Tian, you’ll definitely remain at the top this month with the points you’ve accumulated!”

“Senior Duan Ling Tian, you’re my idol!”

A group of disciples from the Profound Nether Mansion clamored for Duan Ling Tian’s attention. Their eyes were shining brightly when they looked at him.

Some female disciples even boldly propositioned him.

“Senior Duan Ling Tian, I like you!”

“Senior Duan Ling Tian, do you have a cultivation partner?”

Although Duan Ling Tian had expected a certain degree of attention, he did not expect the Profound Nether Mansion disciples to be so enthusiastic, especially the female disciples. He found it slightly difficult to accept. When did women become so bold?

At this moment, an elder stepped forward and blocked the group of clamoring disciples. “Duan Ling Tian, I can’t believe you eliminated the Red Leaves Mansion’s Ximen Hao Xuan!”

“I was just fortunate.” Duan Ling Tian faintly smiled. “I couldn’t have eliminated Ximan Hao Xuan without Wan Qing Qing’s help.”

“In the past, many people had tried working together to ruin the winning streak of the six strongest Ten Directions Celestial Dukes in the middle realm. However, you and Wan Qing Qing are the only ones who have succeeded. There’s no need for you to be humble,” the elder said with a smile.

Duan Ling Tian nodded slightly and politely rejected an invitation by a group of elders before he left the transportation site. After he left, he sighed in relief. The elders were enthusiastically recommending their daughters and granddaughters to him, clearly eager for him to become their son-in-law. He made his way to Qi Tian Ming’s residence where he was temporarily staying.

“Old Qi!”

“You’re back early.” Qi Tian Ming was rather surprised when he saw Duan Ling Tian. “Don’t you have two more days before your days in the middle realm are up this month?”

“Wan Qing Qing has left so it’s meaningless for me to stay. It’d be better for me to leave early so I can continue comprehending the law of space,” Duan Ling Tian replied.

“That makes sense. After all, with your score, your rank at the top is secure.” Qi Tian Ming had already learned about Duan Ling Tian ranking first the day before and had sent him a congratulatory message.

“I can’t believe you really manage to rank first.” Before Duan Ling Tian entered the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, Qi Tian Ming did not place much hope in Duan Ling Tian ranking first even if he waited outside the Fire Glaze Mansion’s base. Moreover, there were those six monsters who stood between him and the first place. Those six Ten Directions Celestial Dukes were so strong that nobody could move them from their places over the past few years. Although he had learned about Duan Ling Tian joining forces with Wan Qing Qing, he still did not think Duan Ling Tian stood a chance.

“We were just lucky,” Duan Ling Tian said. After his encounter with the Red Leaves Mansion’s Ximen Hao Xuan, he dared not underestimate the six strongest Ten Directions Celestial Dukes in the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. He knew if he were to go against them on his own, he would not be able to eliminate them. Naturally, they would not be able to eliminate him as well. After all, their speed was much faster than his. Even with the help from the three Divine Elements, it would be difficult for his attacks to land. At most, he would be able to defend against their attacks. In order to eliminate them, he would have to master the Teleportation Profundity and the Transportation Profundity from the law of space.

“It doesn’t matter if it’s due to luck. The important thing is you manage to rank first this month,” Qi Tian Ming said with a smile. Then, his smile waned suddenly as he said, “Alas, there’s no guarantee you’ll be able to work with Wan Qing Qing again next month since you don’t know if you’ll be able to meet her in the middle realm… Moreover, there’s no one in our mansion who has speed comparable to hers…” Although he did not witness Duan Ling Tian and Wan Qing Qing’s battles, it was not difficult for him to deduce that Wan Qing Qing’s speed played a big part in Duan Ling Tian’s success. Otherwise, why would Duan Ling Tian join forces with her?

“If you manage to work with someone as fast as Wan Qing Qing every month, it won’t be difficult for you to pass the test and become the Imperial Tutor of the Profound Nether Mansion,” Qi Tian Ming said with a sigh. He still found it difficult to accept the insurmountable task that the Pavilion Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion had set for Duan Ling Tian who was not even 100 years old!

“There’s always a solution to a problem. We’ll deal with it when the time comes.” Contrary to Qi Tian Ming, Duan Ling Tian was rather optimistic. “Old Qi, I want to visit the Coupling Celestial Sect, are you free to take me there?”

“Are you planning to meet your friend?” Qi Tian Ming knew Duan Ling Tian had a good friend named Huang Jia Long who joined the Coupling Celestial Sect due to a misunderstanding that happened previously.

Duan Ling Tian nodded.

“Sure, I’ll take you to the Coupling Celestial Sect.”

Qi Tian Ming did not waste time and immediately brought Duan Ling Tian with him, leaving the Profound Nether Mansion for the Coupling Celestial Sect.

…

With Qi Tian Ming’s speed, it only took them three days and two nights to arrive at the Coupling Celestial Sect.

As one of the ten inspectors of the Profound Nether Mansion, it was only natural that the first and second Sect Leader of the Coupling Celestial Sect personally greeted them upon their arrival.

“Senior Uncle Qi.”

The First and Second Sect Leader of the Coupling Celestial Sect were lower in rank, therefore, they had to address Qi Tian Ming as senior uncle.

“This must be Duan Ling Tian, right?” The first sect leader, Gongsun Wenqing, smiled and looked at Duan Ling Tian.

“Yes, he’s Duan Ling Tian.” Qi Tian Ming nodded.

“Duan Ling Tian, you’ve achieved a remarkable feat. Based on my knowledge, it’s been years since someone from the Profound Nether Mansion managed to rank first in the middle realm of the Profound Nether Mansion. You surely made the Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion proud!” Gongsun Wenqing said amicably.

“Sect Leader Gongsun, you flatter me. I’m actually here to look for Jia Long,” Duan Ling Tian said.

“I’ve already sent him a message to summon him over.”

Just a few moments after Gongsun Wenqing finished speaking, Huang Jia Long arrived.

Duan Ling Tian and Huang Jia Long exchanged a hug as soon as they met.

Meanwhile, Qi Tian Ming and the two sect leaders tactfully retreated to give the duo some time alone.

“Brother Duan, my master told me you’re ranked first in the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm this month! How amazing!” Huang Jia Long said excitedly. “From what I know, the middle realm is a stage for Ten Directions Celestial Dukes. My master said you must have consumed the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit. Is it true?”

“That’s right.” Duan Ling Tian nodded.

“The Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit helped you comprehend the law of space as well?” Huang Jia Long asked.

Duan Ling Tian did not notice the slight changes in Huang Jia Long’s expression when Huang Jia Long asked this question. Huang Jia Long’s eyes shone brightly as though he had something in mind at this moment.

“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded.

“Come with me!” Huang Jia Long beckoned to Duan Ling Tian and led him deeper into the Coupling Celestial Sect’s estate.

Since Huang Jia Long was the direct disciple of the first Sect Leader of the Coupling Celestial Sect, it was only natural that his cultivation place was located deep in the estate where the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy was most abundant.

Duan Ling Tian followed Huang Jia Long and entered his room.

Swoosh!

Huang Jia Long extended his Divine Consciousness to investigate the room before he extended his hand in front of Duan Ling Tian. Soon enough, a diamond-shaped black stone appeared in his palm.

At this moment, the Profound Divine Metal, the Chaos Divine Flame, and the Chaos Divine Earth cried out in unison, “The Supreme Powerhouse Divinity!”
