Chapter 4017: Duan Ling Tian Is Running Out of Ti
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhen Ping Fan failed to notice the anticipation that flashed in the depths of Duan Ling Tian’s eyes. He was unaware that Duan Ling Tian also carried hatred and vengeance in his heart. He had lost so of his good friends because of Yun Qing Yan from the Divine Offering Land’s Yun clan. Apart from that, Duan Ling Tian was also strongly driven by his desire to reunite with his wife, Ke’er. This was his strongest motivation to beco stronger. His determination was beyond anyone’s imagination.
Duan Ling Tian was very confident that his will was strong enough to withstand the test of the Supre Divine Mansion. As such, contrary to Zhen Ping Fan’s expectations, he said, “Elder Zhen, please tell Elder Ye that I’m really interested in entering the Supre Divine Mansion. Even if there’s just a small chance of entering that place, I don’t want to let go.”
Zhen Ping Fan was stunned by Duan Ling Tian’s reply. When he recovered his senses, he smiled wryly and said, trying to dissuade Duan Ling Tian, “Duan Ling Tian, didn’t I say there’s no need to be so reckless, especially when your innate talent is so high? Moreover, based on your current strength, even if you survive the Supre Divine Mansion, your improvent won’t be earth-shaking. With your innate talent and comprehension skills, you only need to cultivate a little harder to achieve the sa results. The Supre Divine Mansion is much more treacherous than you can imagine. Otherwise, Yuan Han Jin wouldn’t have lost so many disciples to it. The only reason Yang Qian Ye was able to survive is solely due to his strong hatred and desire for revenge.”
Duan Ling Tian did not respond to those words. Instead, he said, “Elder Zhen, so far, everything is just Elder Ye’s speculation, right? How confident is he that Yuan Han Jin from the Ping Sheng faction found a Supre Divine Mansion?”
“He’s more than 90% certain,” Zhen Ping Fan replied, “This is the only theory that makes complete sense.”
“I see.” Duan Ling Tian nodded. Then, his expression suddenly froze when he recalled the strangeness of the death of Yang Qian Ye’s father. He looked at Zhen Ping Fan and subconsciously lowered his voice as he asked, “Elder Zhen, is it possible for soone to kill their direct disciple’s father just because of their own obsession?”
Duan Ling Tian had heard of cases where so forces would kill the family mbers of their disciples to ensure their disciples’ loyalty.
Zhen Ping Fan was slightly taken aback by Duan Ling Tian’s question. He looked at Duan Ling Tian aningfully as he said, “Duan Ling Tian, so words are best left unspoken. So words will bring about untold consequences once spoken. I’ll pretend I didn’t hear those words today.” Then, after a beat, he added, “What you said isn’t impossible.”
Duan Ling Tian’s solemn expression cracked when he heard Zhen Ping Fan’s last sentence. He felt rather speechless by Zhen Ping Fan’s fickleness. After all, Zhen Ping Fan had warned him about the severity of his speculation, but Zhen Ping Fan still could not help but throw him a bone at the end.
“The sect doesn’t care?” Duan Ling Tian asked. If his speculation was right, he wondered if the Pure Yang Sect would turn a blind eye to their mber killing his disciple’s family mber just to ensure his disciple’s success.
Zhen Ping Fan said casually, “The important thing is evidence. For the sect to take action, there needs to be evidence. re speculations won’t be enough to convict a Transcendence Elder of such a cri. Moreover, don’t forget that Yuan Han Jin isn’t just a Transcendence Elder. His father is Yuan Ping Sheng, the founder of the Ping Sheng faction.”
Duan Ling Tian nodded. He naturally knew that Yuan Ping Sheng was not only the founder of the Ping Sheng faction but also an interdiate Emperor of Gods and an Ascension Elder in the Pure Yang Sect.
“That’s why you should keep your speculation to yourself. Don’t ntion it to anyone. If words get out and you don’t have the evidence to back your words up, you’ll be punished. Slandering a Transcendence Elder in the sect is a serious cri,” Zhen Ping Fan warned.
“I understand.” Duan Ling Tian nodded. At the sa ti, he could not help but feel gloomy. Although he was not one of the parties involved, he was truly disgusted by Yuan Han Jin’s lunacy. Moreover, this matter also concerned Long Qing Chong, the Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect, who was an acquaintance of his.
Even after discounting his relationship with Long Qing Chong, Duan Ling Tian did not think that Long Qing Chong killed Lan Qing, Yang Qian Ye’s father. After all, Long Qing Chong was very open and was even willing to demonstrate his strength to Yang Qian Ye to prove his innocence.
At this ti, Zhen Ping Fan frowned and said, “We’ve gone off-topic. This isn’t the main point. We were talking about the Supre Divine Mansion. I advise you against entering the Supre Divine Mansion.”
Duan Ling Tian said with a smile, “Elder Zhen, don’t worry. I’m very confident.”
“I’m sure those who entered previously were also confident about their survival. How many of them survived?” Zhen Ping Fan said as he shook his head, “Don’t be rash. Perhaps, there are so who are willing to take such risks due to their upcoming Heavenly Tribulations that might kill or severely injure them. It’s indeed worth taking such risk under those circumstances. However, you have no reason to risk your life. You’re not even 3,000 years old. You have plenty of ti ahead of you!”
Duan Ling Tian sighed bitterly upon hearing Zhen Ping Fan’s words. Then, he said, “Elder Zhen, to be honest with you, I’m running out of ti. It’s a long story. I have to enter the Supre Divine Mansion if I have the chance.”
Seeing Duan Ling Tian’s determined gaze at the of his sentence, Zhen Ping Fan knew he could not persuade Duan Ling Tian otherwise. He could only shake his head and sigh as he said, “I understand. I’ll relay your intentions to Junior Uncle Ye.”
Duan Ling Tian nodded. Then, he said reassuringly, “Elder Zhen, I understand that you’re worried about my safety. However, I want you to know that I managed to achieve so many extraordinary feats not just because of my talent alone, but my will and determination as well. Apart from that, I’m also driven because of so people and circumstances. At this mont, if soone told I can beco a Supre God imdiately, but there’s a 50% chance that I’ll die, I’d still take the risk without any hesitation!”
Although Duan Ling Tian was progressing very quickly, it was not fast enough for him. He was not optimistic about becoming a Supre God within 300 years, and this was the source of his worry and also the source of his motivation. After all, the Xia clan and the Yun clan were supre-rank clans in the Divine Offering Land.
After exchanging a few more words, Zhen Ping Fan took his leave. Even when he left, he was still thinking about what could possibly motivate Duan Ling Tian to risk his life to enter the Supre Divine Mansion.
‘Everyone has their own story. It seems like Duan Ling Tian didn’t co this far based on his innate talent and comprehension skills alone. He has his reason for wanting to grow stronger so quickly as well...’ Zhen Ping Fan sighed inwardly. He did not ask further because he knew everyone had their own secrets, and he did not want to pry.
‘I hope he’ll be able to rank in the top 3 of the Seven Mansions Feast. With that, his cultivation journey in the future will be much smoother as well. After obtaining three places for the sect, the sect will definitely treat him very well...’ Zhen Ping Fan thought to himself. After a mont, he rembered sothing. ‘Oh, I just realized that he has yet to reveal the word he drew! He must have already seen the word when he drew the token.’
...
Duan Ling Tian was unaware of Zhen Ping Fan’s thoughts. He had completely forgotten about the word on his token, which would only appear after he imbued his token with his Divine Energy. At this mont, his mind was occupied with thoughts about the Supre Divine Mansion.
‘Yang Qian Ye was only a rudintary Lord of Gods for a short ti. Based on his talent, it would have taken him a few hundred years to beco an interdiate Lord of Gods, but he did so in just a few decades. The Supre Divine Mansion is truly powerful! I wonder if I’ll beco an advanced Lord of Gods if I survive the Supre Divine Mansion?’
Duan Ling Tian’s eyes shone with excitent when he thought about becoming an advanced Lord of Gods. The Seven Mansions Feast lost its luster in comparison to the Supre Divine Mansion at this mont. However, he was quick to calm down.
‘I have to calm down. Elder Zhen said that Elder Ye has yet to confirm his speculation. Moreover, we still don’t know if interdiate Lords of Gods can enter the Supre Divine Mansion. If that’s the case, Ye Ying Cai and I will be disappointed...’
Duan Ling Tian cald down slightly after thinking about this.
After a while, Duan Ling Tian finally recalled that he had yet to imbue his Divine Energy into his token.
“Let’s see...”
When the Divine Energy entered the token, and the word revealed itself, Duan Ling Tian’s expression stiffened, and his gaze turned gloomy.
