Chapter 3871: Duan Ling Tian Is a Lord of Gods?
Many people recognized Duan Ling Tian when he entered the Imperial War Realm. Needless to say, those in the Imperial War Realm were still unaware of the matter regarding Kuang Tian Zheng. It would likely take a while before news spread to the Imperial War Realm.
When the others saw Duan Ling Tian, they assumed he had come to visit his friends since he could no longer enter the King Battlefield. However, they were shocked when they saw him walking toward the entrances of the battlefields.
“What’s going on? I thought Duan Ling Tian was prohibited from entering the King Battlefield?”
“That’s right! Our sect and the Tai Yi Sect had come to an agreement to prohibit Duan Ling Tian and Ximen Long Xiang from entering the King Battlefield.”
“Is Duan Ling Tian going to break the agreement with the Tai Yi Sect? He can’t do that when the sect leader has already compensated him, right?”
“He won’t really break the agreement, right?”
Duan Ling Tian’s appearance would not have caused a commotion if he had wandered Flying Dragon City or Peace City. However, since he was making his way to the area where the entrances to the three battlefields were located, everyone was curious. Many people even followed him to see what he was going to do.
Duan Ling Tian did not pay attention to the group of people following him and their conversation. He only smiled faintly when he heard their words. How could he return to the King Battlefield? Not only was there a ban, but it was also meaningless for him to go there. He would only earn 25 war points for killing an advanced King of Gods from the Tai Yi Sect. It was unlike the Lord Battlefield where he would be rewarded with 200 war points and 2,000 war points for killing a rudimentary and intermediate Lord of Gods respectively.
Since it was Duan Ling Tian’s second time here, he had a much easier time navigating his way. It did not take long before he arrived at the entrances of the three battlefields. A stone tablet was erected next to each of the entrances to the King Battlefield, the Lord Battlefield, and the Quasi Emperor Battlefield. Needless to say, he made his way to the entrance to the Lord Battlefield.
“Duan Ling Tian is going to the Lord Battlefield?!”
“The Lord Battlefield?! Is there a mistake? Only Lords of Gods can enter the… Heavens! Did Duan Ling Tian break through and become a Lord of Gods?!”
“Impossible! From what I know, Duan Ling Tian only became an advanced King of Gods less than 10 years ago. Do you really think it’s possible for him to become a Lord of Gods in such a short time?”
“Then, what is he doing?”
“Who knows? Maybe he’s just curious and wants to have a look at the Lord Battlefield?”
The crowd continued to follow Duan Ling Tian. Similar to Kuang Tian Zheng and Xue Ming Zhi, none of them thought it was possible for Duan Ling Tian to be a Lord of Gods.
The entrance to the Lord Battlefield was similar to the entrance to the King Battlefield. However, it was much less crowded compared to the entrance to the King Battlefield. Even the Soul Pearls on display were much fewer. This was not surprising since there were more Kings of Gods than Lords of Gods in the Flying Dragon Sect.
When the two inner elders of the Flying Dragon Sect guarding the entrance saw the crowd coming their way, they frowned in confusion.
“Why did all of them come here?”
After a while, Duan Ling Tian arrived in front of the two inner elders. He greeted them and said, “Elders, I’m going to enter the Lord Battlefield.”
Then, without waiting for a reply, Duan Ling Tian stepped into the Formation to verify his cultivation base and to obtain an identity token. Following that, he disappeared into the entrance.
One of the elders cried out belatedly, “Hey, you forgot to leave your Soul Pearl!”
Meanwhile, the crowd that followed Duan Ling Tian here gasped. All of them wore incredulous expressions on their faces.
“Heavens! Duan Ling Tian is really a Lord of Gods, right!”
“That’s right! He entered the Lord Battlefield with an identity token. Only Lords of Gods will be issued that token!”
“So he really broke through and became a Lord of Gods?!”
The two inner elders were shocked as well. Although they had heard of Duan Ling Tian, they had never seen him before. Hence, they were not shocked when they saw an unfamiliar young man obtaining an identity token before entering the Lord of Battlefield. They assumed he was one of the many Lords of Gods in the Flying Dragon Sect. How could they not feel shocked after learning that the person who had just entered the Lord Battlefield was Duan Ling Tian?
Duan Ling Tian was the Flying Dragon Sect’s most outstanding prodigy. He was the strongest King of Gods in the sect even though he had just become an advanced King of Gods not too long ago. During the Imperial War, he had killed 100 Kings of Gods from the Tai Yi Sect on the King Battlefield, prompting the sect and the Tai Yi Sect to prohibit him and Ximen Long Xiang from entering the King Battlefield. Since then, Duan Ling Tian’s fame as a monstrous prodigy from the Flying Dragon Sect grew even more. His fame was on par with that of Ximen Long Xiang.
However, now, Duan Ling Tian had become a Lord of Gods when not even 10 years had passed since he became an advanced King of Gods. Even Ximen Long Xiang was incapable of achieving such an extraordinary feat.
When the crowd recovered from the shock, they spread the news excitedly.
Flying Dragon City was still shaken by the news of Duan Ling Tian’s breakthrough when disciples entered the Imperial War Realm, bringing news about Kuang Tian Zheng’s matter.
With this, news spread from Flying Dragon City to Peace City, Tai Yi City, and the Tai Yi Sect’s estate.
…
A commotion broke out when news reached the Tai Yi Sect.
“Duan Ling Tian is now a Lord of Gods?!”
“Duan Ling Tian? The one who killed 100 of our Kings of Gods?”
“That’s right!”
“Duan Ling Tian had always been compared to Ximen Long Xiang previously… Hey, has Ximen Long Xiang broken through recently?”
“I don’t think so. He would be on the Lord Battlefield by now if that’s the case.”
…
Ximen Long Xiang, who had returned to the Tai Yi Sect to cultivate, received the news rather quickly as well.
Ximen Long Xiang, like most prodigies, was arrogant. After Duan Ling Tian killed 100 Kings of Gods from the Tai Yi Sect on the King Battlefield, the Tai Yi Sect prohibited him from entering the King Battlefield again. He was initially reluctant and only relented when he found Duan Ling Tian had also been similarly prohibited from entering the King Battlefield.
Since then, Ximen Long Xiang had hoped that Duan Ling Tian would keep cultivating so they would be able to eventually meet on the Lord Battlefield. He had confidently assumed he would become a Lord of Gods before Duan Ling Tian since Duan Ling Tian had only recently become an advanced King of Gods. Hence, he was shocked when he heard that Duan Ling Tian had already become a Lord of Gods.
‘It took him less than 10 years to become a rudimentary Lord of Gods from an advanced King of Gods?! I didn’t have a chance to fight him on the King Battlefield. I’ll definitely fight him on the Lord Battlefield after I become a Lord of Gods!’
Although Ximen Long Xiang was shocked, his spirit was not dampened. On the contrary, he grew even more motivated to break through as quickly as he possibly could. After all, he had been wanting to fight Duan Ling Tian for a long time now. All he wanted now was to fight Duan Ling Tian on the Lord Battlefield.
…
Similarly, the high-ranking officials of the Tai Yi Sect were also shocked when they heard about Duan Ling Tian’s breakthrough.
“Duan Ling Tian is a Lord of Gods now?”
“How did he do it?!”
“He must have had a fortuitous encounter! Otherwise, it’d be impossible for him to become a Lord of Gods in such a short time even if he’s highly talented!”
“I agree!”
Although the high-ranking officials of the Tai Yi Sect were shocked, they were not worried this time. After all, Duan Ling Tian had entered the Lord Battlefield, not the King Battlefield. His comprehension of the law might be high among Kings of Gods, but that might not be the case among Lords of Gods. In their opinion, Duan Ling Tian’s current strength was likely on par with that of an inner deacon or an outer elder.
