Chapter 2897: Incredulous

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was possible for one to conceal one’s aura through some techniques. However, it had been proven impossible for someone over the age of 100 to disguise himself as someone below the age of 100. At the very least, it was unprecedented in the Spirit Overarching Heaven and the other Devata Realms. For this reason, nobody doubted Duan Ling Tian’s age.

After witnessing Duan Ling Tian’s strength that was comparable to a Celestial King, the high-ranking officials from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect knew Duan Ling Tian’s time in the Wasteland was limited.

“Once words spread about what happened in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s estate, the entire Six Southeastern Regions and the borderlands would be shocked!”

“That’s right… This would be especially true for those who have met Master Duan. I’m sure they didn’t expect him to be so powerful.”

“It’s unfortunate that Master Duan is from the central area, and he’ll have to leave our Tai Yi Celestial Sect sooner or later. Otherwise, with this strength, it’d be easy for us to dominate the Six Southeastern Regions and the borderlands!”

“Stop daydreaming… Have you forgotten? There’s a Formation between the borderlands and the central area. A Celestial King’s time is limited in the borderlands. This means Master Duan will have to leave soon.”

“Master Duan is only still here because he wants to fully master the Immobilization King Method and the Eastern Purple Qi first so he can give us the copies of them before he leaves,” one of the high-ranking officials of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect said.

Bai Ping, the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, could not help but sigh inwardly, ‘Based on the power of the Eastern Purple Qi and the Immobilization King Method when Master Duan cast them, it seems like he has already mastered the Eastern Purple Qi. It won’t take long for him to completely master the Immobilization King Method as well… When that time comes, he’ll leave the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.’ He felt heavy-hearted when he thought about this. After all, with Duan Ling Tian’s departure, the Tai Yi Celestial Sect would not only lose an extraordinary prominent Celestial Alchemist who bested a supreme Duke Grade Celestial Method and was widely acknowledged as the best prominent Celestial Alchemist in the Six Southeastern Regions and the borderlands, but the sect would also lose a Celestial King.

‘Master Duan is really amazing…’ Similarly, Situ Ming, the prominent Celestial Alchemist of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, who was hovering in the air sighed inwardly. He was still in a daze over Duan Ling Tian’s performance earlier that he did not even realize that Yang Chong and Yu Zhong Jing had arrived by his side.

“Unbelievable! Master Duan is also a Celestial King?” Yang Chong exclaimed.

“A monster!” Yu Zhong Jing only uttered two words. However, they were more than enough to express the impact Duan Ling Tian had left on him.

Shortly afterward, the people of Tai Yi Celestial Sect began to disperse. Some of them left the Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s estate to spread the word of what happened today. It did not take long before it spread through Tai Yi City and to the Thousand Spiders City and the Martial Dragon City. It continued to spread like a wildfire to the major cities in the Wasteland, causing an uproar. However, it was only natural that there were many who were skeptical.

At the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect and the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect.

“The Chief Celestial Alchemist of Tai Yi Celestial Sect, Duan Ling Tian, is not only an outstanding prominent Celestial Alchemist, but he’s also a Celestial King powerhouse?”

“How’s that possible?”

“I’ve met Master Duan. It’s true he’s not even 100 years old. He’s incredibly talented and outstanding in alchemy. How’s it possible that he’s a Celestial King as well?!”

“This news must be fake!”

The people from the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect and the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect were in disbelief. They did not believe Duan Ling Tian was a Celestial King and thought the news was fake.

“Duan Ling Tian toyed with Li An before killing him? He even destroyed Li An’s Soul Attack and killed Li An with his Soul Attack?”

“Hmph! If it’s true, why didn’t he save He Shan, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect from Sect Leader Bai Wu Ji from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect during the Alchemy Conference?”

“That’s right! He only watched He Shan died!”

“In fact, Duan Ling Tian revealed his cultivation base during the Alchemy Conference… Although he’s extraordinarily talented in alchemy, he has said he’s only an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial”

The people from the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect and the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect who attended the Alchemy Conference remained skeptical and did not believe Duan Ling Tian was a Celestial King.

Jian Qiu Luo and Chai Kong Yu, the Sect Leader of the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect and the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect respectively, paid no heed to the rumor as well. They only shook their heads and sneered.

“A Celestial King?” Even Zhou Shu Qiu shook her head in disbelief.

Although word of Duan Ling Tian killing Li An had spread through the Wasteland, nobody except those from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect took it seriously. After all, even the two major sects in the Wasteland, the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect and the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect, did not believe it.

“Nobody believes it?”

“Hmph! Master Duan’s indeed a Celestial King. I personally witness his strength. How dare the people from the Thousand Spider Celestial Sect and the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect doubt him!”

“Just let them be… We can’t go begging for them to believe it, can we?”

The people of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect were, naturally, upset that nobody believed them.

“It’s only natural for the people from the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect and the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect to be skeptical. After all, none of them saw how Duan Ling Tian killed Li An. We didn’t record it with a Floating Image Pearl at that time.”

“An ordinary Floating Image Pearl is too slow to catch Li An’s movements. Only a Floating Image Pearl created by a Celestial Duke could catch his movements.”

“That may be so, but it still won’t be able to catch the movements of a Celestial King. Only a higher-grade Floating Image Pearl would be able to capture a Celestial King’s movements.”

Among the high-ranking officials of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, there were a few of them who possessed Duke Grade Floating Image Pearls. Alas, nobody remembered to record the fight. They felt extremely regretful. Although it might not be able to capture Duan Ling Tian’s movements, it would be able to record Li An using Soul Attack on Duan Ling Tian and the moment Li An died. That would be enough evidence to prove the news was not fake.

“Even then, the Thousand Spider Celestial Sect and Martial Dragon Celestial Sect made a good point though. It’s reasonable why they don’t believe the rumors..”

“What is it?”

“They said if Duan Ling Tian is a Celestial King, why didn’t he save our Old Ancestor from Bai Wu Ji’s attack during the Alchemy Conference?”

“Hm… That’s true. Why didn’t I think of it?”

“Perhaps, Master Duan didn’t intervene because he thinks the Old Ancestor should pay with his life for killing the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect?”

“It’s possible… Furthermore, he won’t be able to protect the Old Ancestor forever since he’ll leave the Tai Yi Celestial Sect soon. What if he intervened and further offended Bai Wu Ji? That’ll only bring trouble to us!”

“That makes sense… It must be the reason why Master Duan didn’t intervene.”

Meanwhile, Bai Ping seemed bothered as he stared blankly into the air. He thought to himself with a frown, ‘Previously, Master Duan had mentioned he was helpless to save the Old Ancestor. I guess this means he had no intention of staying idle if he were strong enough to help at that time. Then, if that’s the case, how did he grow so strong in such a short time? How did he become a Celestial King in such a short time?!’
