Chapter 2896: Freakish Talent

Previously, Ji Fan, the Arhat of the Blissful Sect, would not have cared if Duan Ling Tian glared at him. However, at this moment, although Duan Ling Tian was smiling, he could not help but flinch as his expression changed drastically. He unconsciously tensed up as though he was standing on pins and needles. Although he did not clearly see how Li An, his grandmaster and the Old Ancestor of the Blissful Sect died, it was not difficult to discern that Duan Ling Tian was the one who killed Li An based on the reactions of the people from the Tai Yi Celestial SectIn the past, Ji Fan would never even flinch if Duan Ling Tian would glare at him.

Ji Fan grew even more panicked and fearful when he heard the discussions of the high-ranking officials and members of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.

“Heavens! Master Duan’s Soul Attack is frightening… It destroyed Li An’s Soul Attack and annihilated his soul!”

“Li An’s Soul Attack is not a match for Master Duan’s Soul Attack at all!”

“Master Duan’s strength is too formidable!”

“Master Duan is really good at hiding his true abilities. Previously, he had also hidden his skills in alchemy during the Alchemy Conference. It was later revealed he’s extremely skilled and talented in alchemy. Who knew his strength is as remarkable as his skills in alchemy as well?”

“Based on his display of strength earlier, even a Ten Directions Celestial Duke is no match for Master Duan, right?”

“Master Duan must be a Celestial King! Otherwise, he couldn’t be so strong!”

“When the sky turned purple and the Old Ancestor of the Blissful Sect, Li An, was imprisoned by the purple energy, I didn’t expect it to be an attack by Master Duan. I thought it was his clansmen protecting him!”

“Heavens! What kind of background does Master Duan have? He’s freakishly talented!”

“A prominent Celestial Alchemist and a Celestial King powerhouse, all before he reached the age of 100. Not even in 10,000 years have we seen someone like that in the entire Spirit Overarching Heaven?”

“Who knows? Up till today, I didn’t think there’s a Celestial King who hasn’t even reached the age of 100. Who knows if he’s the first in the Spirit Overarching Heaven?”

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian’s gaze grew colder as he asked, “Arhat, are you deliberately ignoring me?”

Ji Fan’s face paled immediately, and he felt as though he had fallen into an icy lake. He shook his head and hastily said, “No, no, no… I’m not… Master Duan, it’s not intentional. I-I… was just distracted. Sorry. I’m really sorry!” He bowed repeatedly as he apologized to Duan Ling Tian. His body trembled violently; he was afraid Duan Ling Tian would attack him. With Duan Ling Tian’s strength, he was just like a helpless chicken on a chopping board.

Duan Ling Tian cocked an eyebrow and lightly asked, “So are you going to answer me now? Did Li An tell the truth? Is it just his personal vendetta against me and has nothing to do with the Blissful Sect? You better not lie to me. After all, it won’t be difficult for me to uncover the truth!” He stared at Ji Fan intently, clearly warning him not to lie.

“No… No… Even if I had the courage of a lion, I won’t dare to lie to you,” Ji Fan replied hastily as he gestured with his hands, “After the high-rank officials of the Blissful Sect discovered Master Duan’s a transcender, they decided to get rid of you. That’s why my grandmaster and I are here and… You know the rest of the story.” He looked at Duan Ling Tian timidly as he asked tentatively, “Master Duan, that’s all I know… May I leave… now?” He, naturally, could not wait to leave. He felt as though he could die at any given moment if he continued to stay here.

“Of course.” Duan Ling Tian nodded in approval after listening to Ji Fan’s explanation.

Ji Fan was just about to heave a sigh of relief when fear paralyzed him…

Duan Ling Tian said, “Arhat, I feel like visiting the Blissful Sect… Would you mind showing me the way there?”

The people of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, naturally, knew the reason Duan Ling Tian wanted to visit the Blissful Sect.

“Is Master Duan planning to cause trouble in the Blissful Sect?”

“Looks like it… It’s madness, and it’s not wise, right?”

“To an ordinary person, it might be crazy, but it’s not a big deal to Master Duan.”

“That’s right! After all, Master Duan’s a Celestial King!”

The people of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect fervently discussed among themselves. Word continued to spread even the lowest of disciples were aware of Duan Lig Tian’s strength. Everyone was shocked and excited to find out their Revered Elder was a Celestial King!

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian’s eyes glinted coldly as he said, “Looks like the Arhat is unwilling to take me there?”

“No… No… Of course, I’m willing! I’m willing! It’s an honor for me to show you the way. It’s a blessing!” Ji Fan hastily replied when he saw the coldness of Duan Ling Tian’s gaze. He was so frightened that sweat began to trickle down his forehead.

Then, Duan Ling Tian looked at Bai Ping, the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, and asked with a smile before he glanced at Tie Tai He, “Sect leader, will you allow me to bring Supreme Elder Tie with me to the Blissful Sect?”

“Of course!” Bai Ping did not hesitate at all. Although he did not know why Duan Ling Tian wanted to bring Tie Tai He to the Blissful Sect, he had no reason to reject Duan Ling Tian’s request. It was a small request, after all.

“Thank you, sect leader.” Duan Ling Tian nodded before he looked at Tie Tai He and said, “Elder Tie, I’ll need you to bring us to the Blissful Sect since I plan to continue comprehending the Celestial Method during our journey.”

Bai Ping finally understood why Duan Ling Tian wanted to bring Tie Tai He along. It was so Tie Tai He could carry Duan Ling Tian with his energy while Duan Ling Tian concentrated on comprehending the Celestial Method.

“All right, that’s not a problem,” Tie Tai He replied with a smile. A hint of respect could be seen flashing in the depths of his eyes as he looked at Duan Ling Tian. He had always been impressed by Duan Ling Tian’s talent in alchemy. After all, not even a supreme Duke Grade Celestial Alchemist was a match for him. However, he did not expect Duan Ling Tian to also be a Celestial King. It was only natural that he had even more respect for Duan Ling Tian now.

After speaking to Tie Tai He, Duan Ling Tian lowered his head to look at Huan’er and said, “Huan’er, you should stay here and recuperate while I go to the Blissful Sect and…”

Before Duan Ling Tian finishes speaking, Huan’er interjected, “Brother Ling Tian, I want to come along. I don’t want to be away from you. Since Elder Tie is carrying you there with his energy, I can recuperate during the journey as well.” She was clearly determined to follow Duan Ling Tian.

“Alright…” Duan Ling Tian shook his head helplessly as he smiled wryly.

Soon after, Duan Ling Tian bade farewell to Bai Ping and left the Tai Yi Celestial Sect for the Blissful Sect with Ji Fan as their guide.

When Duan Ling Tian and the others’ figures finally disappeared from sight, the people from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect slowly regained their senses and broke into an uproar.

“Master Duan’s gonna turn the Blissful Sect upside down…”

“However, if Master Duan threatens the foundation of the Blissful Sect, their quasi Celestial King that lives in seclusion in the Six Southeastern Regions won’t just stay idle, right?

“Quasi Celestial King? Do you think they’re a match for Master Duan?”

“Exactly! Even an ordinary Celestial King is no match for Master Duan, let alone a quasi Celestial King.”

“It’s best if the quasi Celestial Kings from the Blissful Sect stay out of this matter. If they anger Master Duan, Master Duan might kill them with just a flip of his palm!”

“I’m really curious about Master Duan’s background now. What kind of clan is able to produce such a talented freak?”

The people of Tai Yi Celestial Sect were, naturally, shocked at Duan Ling Tian’s monstrous talent. After all, he was not even 100 years old, but he had already achieved so many remarkable feats. It was truly unprecedented.
