2564 Mystical Ancient GalaxyThis was not the first time Duan Ling Tian had heard of the Gongsun family. When he was traveling with Tang Xiao Xiao from the Coste Galaxy to the galaxy where earth was located, they had talked about the forces in Yan Huang Realm that included the Gongsun family. At that time, he learned that the Gongsun family was one of the top forces, along with the Yellow Thearch Mansion, in Yan Huang Realm. He estimated that they were even more powerful than Mount Huaguo Sect and the Celestial Masters Sect.
Similar to the Yellow Thearch Mansion, the Gongsun family had two Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials and more than five Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestials. However, they had a lot more Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestials in comparison. Most importantly, one of the two Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials was widely acknowledged as the strongest person in Yan Huang Realm.
“I heard that the Gongsun family is also descendants of Gongsun Xuanyuan, the old ancestor of the Yellow Thearch Mansion?” Duan Ling Tian asked as his eyes flashed coldly. His emotions were like a tempest at this moment.
“Yes.” Xuan Yuan Zhi nodded. “I don’t know when the descendants separated. For some reason, we became arch enemies. We used to be one family, but now one had taken the last name ‘Gongsun’ while we took the last name, ‘Xuan Yuan’! It’s the same in the Devata Realms as well.”
Xuan Yuan Zhi continued to say, “I heard the fight between the Yellow Thearch Mansion and Gongsun family is even more intense in the Devata Realms! People are killed almost everyday… However, whoever manages to survive, no matter if he or she is from the Gongsun family of the Yellow Thearch Mansion, they would be able to train under the old ancestor himself.” His tone turned respectful when he mentioned the old ancestor.
Gongsun Xuanyuan was like a deity to everyone in the Yellow Thearch Mansion and Gongsun family.
“Based on what you said, the fight between the Gongsun family and the Yellow Thearch Mansion is tacitly approved by Gongsun Xuanyuan?” Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes. It was not difficult for him to figure this out.
“You can say that.” Xuan Yuan Zhi nodded.
“Gongsun Xuanyuan is, indeed, ambitious. He even used such a method to train his descendants!”
Previously, Elder Huo, the Three-legged Golden Crow and the pagoda spirit of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, had told Duan Ling Tian that Gongsun Xuanyuan, the Yellow Emperor of Planet Yan Huang, had become a tyrant after ascending to the Devata Realm and becoming a Heavenly Emperor. It was not difficult to believe that the strife between the descendants was all part of Gongsun Xuanyuan’s plan. His objective was to select the best among his descendants to train by his side. After all, he was just a single person. It was impossible for him to personally train every single one of his descendants.
Duan Ling Tian’s eyes were so cold that it seemed to cause the temperature in the surroundings to drop. He muttered, “It doesn’t matter if the Gongsun family is the descendants of Gongsun Xuanyuan. Since they covet the Sovereign Heart Sword technique and kidnapped my friend to threaten me, they will have to pay a hefty price!”
Then, Duan Ling Tian turned to look at Xuan Yuan Zhi and asked, “Big brother, where’s the Gongsun family located?” His eyes were filled with killing intent as though he intended to kill every single member of the Gongsun family. He planned to head to the Gongsun family to save Su Li as soon as he obtained their location. He was going to make them pay for their actions.
“Brother Ling Tian.” Xuan Yuan Zhi did not seem surprised by Duan Ling Tian’s reaction. He thought about it for a moment before he tried to dissuade Duan Ling Tian. “I know you’re not weak, and you mastered a technique to snatch Celestial Supreme Treasures away. I have no doubt you can kill even the strongest of Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials. However, the Gongsun family is not that simple…”
Xuan Yuan Zhi continued to say, “Not to mention the others, the strongest person in Yan Huang Realm is not only a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, but he has also mastered the Soul Congregation Embodiment technique!” He explained patiently, “Perhaps, if he didn’t abduct Elder Su Li, you might be able to catch him off guard and kill him. However, since he has abducted Elder Su Li, he’s definitely expecting your arrival. He will definitely be guarded against you. It’s almost impossible for you to kill him before he cast a soul attack.”
Duan Ling Tian was calm and relaxed even after he heard Xuan Yuan Zhi’s words. “Thank you for the reminder, Big Brother. However, I know what I’m doing. Do you have a star chart of the galaxy where the Yellow Thearch Mansion and Gongsun family are located? I would like to borrow them.”
Xuan Yuan Zhi asked tentatively, “Brother Ling Tian, are you certain about this? He’s able to cast soul attacks!”
“So?” Duan Ling Tian replied indifferently. He did not seem troubled by the fact that the Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials had cultivated the Soul Congregation Embodiment technique.
Upon seeing this, Xuan Yuan Zhi had a feeling Duan Ling Tian might be stronger than what he had thought. However, he had no idea what was the extent of Duan Ling Tian’s strength.
“Brother Ling Tian, since you’ve made up your mind, I’ll accompany you on this trip as well!” Xuan Yuan Zhi continued to say, “After all, Elder Su Li had been taken away under my nose…” His eyes flashed coldly as well when he spoke.
…
Since the strongest person in Yan Huang Realm was from the Gongsun family, the Gongsun family could, more or less, be considered as the top force in Yan Huang realm as well. The Gongsun family ruled over a galaxy called the Mystical Ancient Galaxy. It was an extremely vast galaxy. Its size was far bigger than all the galaxies Duan Ling Tian had visited. It was more than twice the size of the galaxy that was ruled by the Yellow Thearch Mansion.
Apart from that, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the galaxy was extremely rich as well, it was richer than the galaxy where the Yellow Thearch Mansion was located.
As soon as they entered the Mystical Ancient Galaxy, Xuan Yuan Zhi said, “Brother Ling Tian, this is the galaxy the Gongsun family ruled. It’s called the Mystical Ancient Galaxy.”
Duan Ling Tian nodded as he looked at the countless stars in his surroundings. Before they had come here, Xuan Yuan Zhi had told him the Mystical Ancient Galaxy did not have an Interstellar Transportation Formation. Everyone, including the Gongsun family, would have to physically travel in and out of the galaxy. This was so they would have a better hold and control of the Mystical Ancient Galaxy.
“Who’s there?!” A voice rang in the air as Duan Ling Tian and Xuan Yuan Zhi hovered in the outskirts of the Mystical Ancient Galaxy. They were just about to enter the home planet of the Gongsun family, but they came to a halt immediately when they heard the low and stern voice.
Whoosh!
In just a blink of an eye, a figure appeared seemingly out of thin air like a ghost. However, with their strength, Duan Ling Tian and Xuan Yuan Zhi could, naturally, see the figure’s movement. They saw the figure belonged to a blue-clad middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance.
“Xuan Yuan Zhi?!” The blue-clad middle-aged man’s expression changed drastically when he saw Xuan Yuan Zhi who was standing next to Duan Ling Tian. It was obvious he did not expect to see the old ancestor and Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from the Yellow Thearch Mansion. Although he was a well-respected Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from the Gongsun family, he was nothing in front of a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial like Xuan Yuan Zhi.
Xuan Yuan Zhi asked, slightly taken aback, “Who are you? How do you know me?”
“I am an elder of the Gongsun family… I… I have seen you once,” the blue-clad middle-aged man stammered as he lowered his head. He really regretted making an appearance here. Initially, he was about to leave the Mystical Ancient Galaxy, but when he noticed two people in the outskirts of the galaxy, he thought to show off his might as a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from the Gongsun Family. Who knew things would turn out this way? He would not have appeared if he knew one of those two people was the old ancestor from the Yellow Thearch Mansion.
Xuan Yuan Zhi’s eyes turned cold when he heard the blue-clad middle-aged man’s words. “You’re a member of the Gongsun family?”
