Chapter 2143 - A Blessing in Disguise


Chapter 2143 A Blessing in Disguise

Currently, nobody from the other two groups had died, but someone from their group had died!

Someone died!

Not only did Bai Li, Wei Suo, Dong Guo Yi, and He Fei Yi’s expressions change dramatically, but even Duan Ling Tian and the others who reacted slower were stunned as well!

Now that someone from their group died, did it not mean that all of them would be eliminated as well? In this case, elimination meant death!

Everyone in Duan Ling Tian’s group was still stunned when a buzzing noise filled the cave they were in. The buzzing noise gradually became louder and faster.

Duan Ling Tian and the others began to feel uneasy when they heard the buzzing noise.

Suddenly…

“Enter the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda! Go now! Now!” A voice laced with anxiety roared in Duan Ling Tian’s ears. Duan Ling Tian only had enough time to determine it was Elder Huo who had spoken, he did not dwell on the reason Elder Huo had asked him to enter the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. He quickly did as he was told. With just a thought, he entered the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda that was the size of a speck of dust in his ear. At this moment, even if he exposed the existence of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, he could not care less. This was the first time Elder Huo had spoken to him so anxiously. For this reason, as soon as Elder Huo finished speaking, he entered the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda without questioning it.

Hu!

Duan Ling Tian’s disappearance was, naturally, discovered by the strongest people in the group, Bai Li and Wei Suo. However, before they could ponder on it, the cave exploded with a thunderous sound.

Boom!

The force was incredibly strong. Although it just appeared for a brief moment, it crushed everyone, including the two powerhouses above and at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, Bai Li and Wei Suo, into dust.

Faced with that force, even someone as strong as Bai Li had no way to defend himself and was killed in just a blink of an eye. If someone as strong as him could not even defend himself, the others had no chance at all!

Although the brief but extremely powerful explosion had crushed everything in that cave into dust, there was a unique speck of dust that remained untouched.

On the other hand, once Duan Ling Tian entered the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, before he could find his footing, he felt a violent quake outside! For this reason, Duan Ling Tian was sent out of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.

After being sent out of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, Duan Ling Tian felt dizzy and nauseous. It seemed like he was suffering from concussion and internal injuries. “I don’t feel well!”

However, Duan Ling Tian’s injuries were actually not that severe. He would be able to recover after resting for a moment.

When Duan Ling Tian regained his senses, he was stunned when he saw his empty surroundings. “This…” The cave he was in no longer existed, and the people from his group had also disappeared! “What… What happened?!” Duan Ling Tian was shocked that he could not react for a moment.

Before the brief but powerful explosion crushed everyone in the cave and turned them into dust, Duan Ling Tian had entered the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda as Elder Huo had instructed him. This was how he had escaped this terrible fate!

Duan Ling Tian’s timing was impeccable. Almost as soon as he entered the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, putting himself under the protection of the pagoda, the cave had exploded violently.

The force of the explosion was so strong it could even kill a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had not passed the Heavenly Tribulation, let alone a powerhouse at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage like Bai Li! After all, it was a Killing Formation that was laid out by three Eminent Celestials who had passed the Heavenly Tribulation!

The Killing Formation was extremely unique. It had gathered all its force before it released the force in just an instant. The force was equivalent to the joint strength of the three Eminent Celestials! It would have been impossible for an Eminent Celestial to defend against the Killing Formation without dying or being severely injured, let alone a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had yet to pass the Heavenly Tribulation!

Based on this, one could see the terrifying strength of the Killing Formation that Zheng Dong Ji and the other two eminent Celestials had set up.

“Quick! Devour the Innate Spiritual Roots inside the soul remnants that haven’t dispersed!” Elder Huo’s voice rang in Duan Ling Tian’s ears while he was still in a daze.

Upon hearing this, Duan Ling Tian regained his senses and instantly extended his Divine Consciousness. He discovered there were many soul remnants around him. Moreover, the Innate Spiritual Roots in the soul remnants were beginning to vanish.

“Devour!” Without any hesitation or thinking too much about the souls around him, Duan Ling Tian began to devour the Innate Spiritual Roots. He knew if he did not devour the Innate Spiritual Roots soon, they would all disappear. At that time, he would not be able to devour them.

“Indigo Innate Spiritual Root? Another Indigo Innate Spiritual Root? Blue Innate Spiritual Root, blue Innate Spiritual Root…” Duan Ling Tian was shocked when he devoured the Innate Spiritual Roots from the soul remnants around him. He discovered there were two indigo Innate Spiritual Roots, five blue Innate Spiritual Roots, and many green Innate Spiritual Roots!

“My Innate Spiritual Root…” After devouring all the Innate Spiritual Roots around him, Duan Ling Tian discovered his Innate Spiritual Root had evolved to a dark indigo Innate Spiritual Root! His dark indigo Innate Spiritual Root was only one step away from turning into a violet Innate Spiritual Root!

If I can devour so many Innate Spiritual Roots like these again, my Innate Spiritual Root would be very close to turning into violet one…’ Duan Ling Tian’s eyes sparkled with anticipation as he licked his lips after he discovered the improvement in his Innate Spiritual Root!

However, after a moment, Duan Ling Tian regained his senses and remembered the people who were in the cave with him…

“E-elder Huo… T-the Innate Spiritual Roots I devoured… Did they belong to my group members?” Duan Ling Tian’s voice trembled slightly when he asked Elder Huo.

It made sense why the Innate Spiritual Roots were all high-grade ones if they had belonged to Bai Li, Wei Suo, and the others!

Bai Li was a powerhouse at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!

Wei Suo was a powerhouse at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!

In the Dao Martial Saint Land, if one wanted to break through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, one had to have an indigo Innate Spiritual Root!

Naturally, there were exceptions to this. In the long history of the Dao Martial Saint Land, there were cases of people with blue Innate Spiritual Roots breaking through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. However, these cases were few and far apart!

You’re right! It’s their Innate Spiritual Roots,” Elder Huo replied calmly.

“I-it’s r-really their Innate Spiritual Roots?!” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes widened when he heard Elder Huo’s answer. An expression of shock appeared on his face as his voice trembled when he said, “H-how’s it possible… They… They…”

“They were killed by the Killing Formation after I asked you to enter the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda!” Elder Huo said, “It’s fortunate you didn’t hesitate. Otherwise, you would’ve died! The force of the explosion is almost at the peak in this mundane realm! Even a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who hasn’t passed the Heavenly Tribulation wouldn’t be able to defend against the force of that explosion! In fact, even an Eminent Celestial wouldn’t have been able to defend against it without being severely injured or possibly dying! The Killing Formation had gathered so much force and released it in just an instant. After all, this Formation was jointly created by three Eminent Celestials. The force from the Formation is the strongest in this mundane realm!” Elder Huo explained to Duan Ling Tian the danger he was in earlier.

After pausing for a moment, Elder Huo said, “Although that force is almost peerless in this mundane realm, it can only destroy objects from this mundane realm like Spatial Rings and Saint Weapons… The Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda is a Celestial Supreme Treasure, that’s why it’s unaffected by the explosion!”

Duan Ling Tian was drenched in cold sweat after he heard Elder Huo’s words.

I-it’s fortunate that I instinctively listened to Elder Huo and entered the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to escape that terrifying force!’

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was breathing heavily and his heart was pounding very fast. He was so close to dying… After Duan Ling Tian calmed down, he instantly thanked Elder Huo. “Elder Huo, thank you.”

“With great risk often comes great rewards… This incident is a blessing in disguise,” Elder Huo said.
