Chapter 2654 One Dead, Another Injured

Whoosh!

When the seven-colored sword Formation collided with Zhou Tong, the energy flames on his body were instantly put out. The Formation left bloody holes all over his body, making it look like a hornet’s nest. Blood kept spurting out of the holes. The blood only stopped gushing out of the wounds when his weakened Celestial Origin Energy completely dissipated.

Zhou Tong panted heavily. The agonizing pain caused him to break out in cold sweat. Based on his cultivation, no matter how hot it was, he would not have sweat.

“Why… Why didn’t you kill me?” Shock, disbelief, confusion, and fear could be seen on Zhou Tong’s face at this moment. Although the seven-colored sword Formation left holes all over his body, it had avoided all the vital parts, and thus, avoided killing him.

“Your life is spared because you still have use,” Duan Ling Tian replied lightly, “However, there’s no need for you to worry. You’ll die soon enough, just not by my hand.” He did not kill Zhou Tong because he was going to bring Zhou Tong back to Bloody Specter City so that Liu Feng Gu, the City Governor of Bloody Specter, could kill Zhou Tong with his own hands. At that time, he would be able to obtain the whereabouts of the Celestial Fire from Liu Feng Gu.

“You! Who’s going to kill me?” Zhou Tong’s eyes widened.

Duan Ling Tian asked in reply, “Who do you think could it be?”

Realization dawned on Liu Feng Gu before he instinctively blurted out, “Liu Feng Gu?” He could not think of anyone else except for Liu Feng Gu. After all, Duan Ling Tian had come from Bloody Specter City where Liu Feng Gu was the city governor.

“Revered Elder Zhou Tong is truly smart.” Duan Ling Tian smiled faintly.

At this moment, Zhou Fei cried out to remind Zhou Tong, “Godfather, use soul attack! Unless he has a soul defense Celestial Weapon that’s of the prominent grade, he won’t be able to withstand a soul attack from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial!” He stood in the distance with a horrified expression on his face when he saw how Zhou Tong was defeated and severely injured by Duan Ling Tian.

When Zhou Fei was in Bloody Specter City previously, Miao Lai Long, the Commander of the Silverwyrm Army, had told him that Duan Ling Tian possessed a soul defense Celestial Weapon. Therefore, Duan Ling Tian was not afraid of soul attacks. However, a mediocre soul defense Celestial Weapon would only be able to resist soul attacks from Golden Celestials, it would not be able to resist soul attacks from Great Overarching Golden Celestials. Only prominent soul defense Celestial Weapons would be able to resist soul attacks from Great Overarching Golden Celestials. He thought it was highly unlikely that Duan Ling Tian would possess a prominent soul defense Celestial Weapon.

Zhou Tong thought death was imminent, and all his hopes were dashed. However, upon hearing Zhou Fei’s words, his eyes were lit up by hope, looking like two dazzling stars in the night sky. He did not hesitate as he quickly cast a soul attack.

A seemingly solid flame surged out from Zhou Tong’s glabella. It flew out at the speed of light toward Duan Ling Tian, catching Duan Ling Tian off-guard. The Great Overarching Golden Celestial’s soul attack entered Duan Ling Tian’s body and raged in there, determined to destroy his soul. Alas, when it came close to his soul, the situation changed abruptly.

An inconspicuous defective metal piece suddenly appeared between the soul attack and Duan Ling Tian’s soul. It was as though a barrier had been erected. The defective metal piece shone brightly as it absorbed the soul attack with a force that seemed capable of devouring heaven and earth. In just a blink of an eye, the seemingly solid flame vanished. The light from the defective metal piece seemed to weaken in general, but the light at the top of it seemed more profound as it twinkled.

Duan Ling Tian was preoccupied at this moment so he did not notice this. Otherwise, he would have discovered the top of the defective metal piece would react in such a subtle way after it absorbed soul attacks. He inhaled sharply as he thought to himself, ‘This defective metal piece is comparable to a prominent Celestial Weapon. It devoured the soul attack of a Great Overarching Golden Celestial so easily. Moreover, it seems like this is not its limit.’

‘This defective metal piece is a product of the jade token and the strange stone. I don’t know the origin of the strange stone, but the jade token was given to me by Ke’er’s third uncle, a powerhouse from the Divine Offering Land who’s even stronger than Heavenly Emperors. Even someone like that thinks it’s precious. I wonder what secrets it holds…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he looked at the defective metal piece curiously.

The sound of people gasping brought Duan Ling Tian back to his senses. He turned his attention back to Zhou Tong who tried to attack his soul. If it were not for that defective metal piece, he would have died.

There were no words to describe the shock Zhou Tong felt at this moment. “You… You have a prominent soul defense Celestial Weapon!”

Meanwhile, Zhou Fei was petrified. His voice trembled as he muttered to himself, “Pr-prominent Celestial Weapon!” Prominent soul defense Celestial Weapons were a rarity. Not even Zhou Thong, the first Revered Elder of Nine Specters County, and the County Governor of Nine Specters County possessed one!

Duan Ling Tian scoffed loudly. He lifted his hand and pointed it at Zhou Fei.

Whoosh!

A seven-colored sword ray shot out, seemingly capable of destroying everything on heaven and earth. Zhou Fei did not even have time to react when his body was split into two. Even the expression on his face remained the same at the time of his death. It was obvious he had no time to react to Duan Ling Tian’s attack at all.

Boom!

Duan Ling Tian casually pushed out his palm. His seemingly peerless Celestial Origin Energy shot out and destroyed Zhou Fei’s corpse. Nothing was left except for a ring that hovered in the air. He raised his hand and brought the ring to him. Zhou Fei who was brimming with life just a second ago had completely vanished.

Meanwhile, Zhou Tong was too afraid to even move a muscle when he saw this. He no longer dared to recklessly attack Duan Ling Tian. After all, it might anger Duan Ling Tian into killing him. Moreover, based on the strength Duan Ling Tian displayed, he was not certain he could stop Duan Ling Tian even if Duan Ling Tian was seriously injured!

Whoosh!

An ear-piercing noise caught Duan Ling Tian’s attention as he put Zhou Fei’s Spatial Ring away. He looked up and saw a streak of light shooting out from Zhou Tong toward the direction of the County Governor’s estate at the speed of light.

‘Communication Celestial Talisman? He must have exposed me and is asking for help from the County Governor.’ Duan Ling Tian scoffed. His eyes were cold as Celestial Origin Energy surged out from his body and turned into thousands of sword rays. They formed a seven-colored sword Formation again before chasing after the Communication Celestial Talisman.

Swoosh!

The Communication Celestial Talisman was fast, but it was no match for the seven-colored sword Formation. In just a blink of an eye, the talisman was destroyed.
