Chapter 1560: The Three Religions And Nine Forces

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

According to the Old Prophet, Duan Ru Feng’s son had a long life.

The moment Duan Ru Feng and Ku Mi realized some conflict might have arisen between the dragon clan’s clansman and Duan Ling Tian, they instantly increased their speed as they headed south to Cloud Continent. With their speed, it did not take them long before they arrived on Cloud Continent.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian was unaware of all these.

After strengthening his cultivation base at the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage, he left the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.

After leaving the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, the first thing Duan Ling Tian did was to head back to somewhere near the Moon Illumination Sect and lurked there for a few days. In the end, an opportunity presented itself, and he knocked out a Moon Illumination Sect’s inner court disciple who was returning to the sect. He disguised himself and took his inner court disciple’s Order Token. He managed to enter the Moon Illumination Sect freely and unobstructed.

After entering the Moon Illumination Sect’s estate, he instantly went to the inner court district.

Soon after, he learned that Bai Li Hong had long brought Feng Wu Dao and the others away from the Moon Illumination Sect. He instantly sighed in relief.

‘Since Senior Brother has already brought Uncle Feng and the others away, that means they’re safe... With Senior Brother’s strength and his identity as a Three Star Saint Inscription Master, even if he leaves the Nine Sect Alliances’ district, there’s no need for him to worry about not having a place to go.’ The moment Duan Ling Tian thought of this, he put his heart to rest.

After making sure that Bai Li Hong and the others were safe, Duan Ling Tian went to the outer court to take a quick look at Ling Yu and Xiong Hu.

However, as it turned out, they were both not in. Th1s chapter is updated by n)ovel/\bin/\

“Did something happen to them?” Duan Ling Tian did not investigate further since he was worried his identity would be exposed.

He left the sect and went to Mound Hill City. However, he did not show himself.

Who knew if the Moon Illumination Sect had sent someone to the City Governor’s Estate of Mound Hill City to wait for him to show up?

Duan Ling Tian asked around in the vicinity of Mound Hill City and learned that Fang Hui, the City Governor of Mound Hill City, was not implicated in the incident at all. He immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

“I guess the Sect Leader of Moon Illumination Sect is not completely unscrupulous,” Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself as he left Mound Hill City.

After leaving Mound Hill City, an idea popped up in Duan Ling Tian’s mind so he made up his mind and headed to Han River City instead. “I wonder if Senior Brother brought Uncle Feng and the others to Han River City after they left the Moon Illumination Sect? I suppose I’ll try my luck there. Perhaps, I might even obtain some useful news.”

Han River City was the main city in the Nine Sect Alliances’ district. Naturally, the news circulating there came directly from the source as well.

Duan Ling Tian knew his way around Han River City very well since he had been here before.

Once he arrived in Han River City, he stayed for a few days in a restaurant as he listened to things that were happening in the Nine Sect Alliances through the discussions between Martial and Dao Cultivators who came from different places.

He was surprised when he learned the incident in the Moon Illumination Sect did not spread out at all.

Be it the death of a Moon Illumination Sect’s Saint Stage powerhouse or the departure of Bai Li Hong from the Moon Illumination Sect, both news did not spread out at all.

Duan Ling Tian found the entire thing a little strange. He was unaware that after the few Saint Stage powerhouses returned to the sect when they failed to find him, Sect Leader Jiang Wei had ordered the inner and outer court elders to make the inner and outer court disciples swear on the lightning penalty oath that they would not reveal the incident that had taken place that day. The incident they meant undoubtedly referred to the incident of Duan Ling Tian killing Qian Kong and Bai Li Hong’s departure from the sect.

Anyone of those incidents was more than enough to shake the foundation of the Moon Illumination Sect. After all, Qian Kong was one of the few Saint Stage powerhouses in the Moon Illumination Sect. Bai Li Hong, on the other hand, was the only Three Star Saint Inscription Master in the sect.

If outsiders found out Qian Kong had died, and Bai Li Hong had left the Moon Illumination Sect, it would no doubt deal a heavy blow to the sect.

Although Duan Ling Tian stayed for a few days in Han River City, he did not directly ask any questions at all.

At this moment, he was in a daze.

Where he should go now?

In his opinion, the Nine Sect Alliances’ district was not an entirely safe place. Due to this reason, he did not plan to stay long in the Nine Sect Alliances’ district.

The Dao Martial Saint Land’s situation was more or less similar to Cloud Continent. The closer it was to the central district, the more powerful the Martial and Dao Cultivators were.

There were many sects there. Many of them were sixth-rate forces or higher.

“I’ll head north to the capital of Windfall Nation.” Soon after, Duan Ling Tian made a decision.

Previously, when he was still in the Moon Illumination Sect, Duan Ling Tian had already learned about the forces surrounding the Nine Sect Alliances. He knew that the large expanse of land at the northern district of the Nine Sect Alliances belonged to a sixth-rate Saint Nation known as Windfall Nation.

In the Dao Martial Saint Land, apart from sects and clans, there was also Saint Nations.

These Saint Nations were originally clans. However, they refused to ally with any forces and ruled the vast expanse of their land and surrounding, creating their own territories and forming nations.

More than half of the nine great sects in the Nine Sect Alliances’ district came from the vast expanse of land seized by Windfall Nation.

They would rather reign in hell than serve in heaven so they came to this isolated and barren land at the Nine Sect Alliances’ district to build an estate that belonged only to them so they could live a carefree life without being under anyone’s rule. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ɴoᴠel ꜰɪre.nᴇt

It was said that because Windfall Nation was now a vast country, it did not take interest in the land the Nine Sect Alliances’ district was occupying. Due to this reason, the nine great sects lived a carefree life here.

What lay between Windfall Nation and the Nine Sect Alliances’ district was an arid desert.

In this desert, apart from being home to many powerful wild beasts, the environment was horrible as well.

Even with Duan Ling Tian’s current cultivation base, if he did not use his flying sword from the 10,000 Swords Territory, it would take him ten days to cross the desert.

Standing at the border of the Nine Sect Alliances’ district and looking at the boundless desert ahead, Duan Ling Tian who had decided to cross the desert to head to Windfall Nation muttered to himself, “Perhaps, the reason Windfall Nation did not occupy the land the Nine Sect Alliances’ district is occupying is due to the desert.”

While Duan Ling Tian was entering the desert, he was unaware Duan Ru Feng, his cheapskate father, had already arrived at the ten great dynasties of Cloud Continent. After he went to the Darkhan Dynasty, he entered the Darkstone Empire, followed by the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, and finally the Crimson Sky Kingdom.

“Ku Mi, wait for me here,” Duan Ru Feng told Ku Mi as he looked down at the Crimson Sky Kingdom beneath his feet.

“Yes, Mansion Master.” Ku Mi was very respectful in front of Duan Ru Feng. He did not dare to overstep the boundary at all.

Then, Duan Ru Feng entered the Crimson Sky Kingdom’s Imperial City.

One must admit that Duan Ru Feng was smart since he came to the Crimson Sky Kingdom’s Imperial City.

In the Crimson Sky Kingdom, he finally obtained the clues that he was looking for... These clues were the ones left by Duan Ling Tian for Li Fei before he left Cloud Continent. He knew Li Fei would return as long as she was alive.

However, it was completely out of his expectation that the first one to obtain the clues he left behind would be his cheapskate father, Duan Ru Feng.

Even the voice transmission jade slip Duan Ling Tian left behind for Li Fei was in Duan Ru Feng’s hand.

From the voice transmission jade slip that Duan Ling Tian left behind, Duan Ru Feng learned about everything that had happened.

“What a great dragon clan! How bold of Di Jue! Good! Very good! You actually destroyed my son’s sect? I’ll definitely go to the dragon clan to demand an explanation!” Murderous intent gleamed in Duan Ru Feng’s eyes.

However, his heart turned heavy again when he learned that one of his daughters-in-law had been taken away by someone.

‘Fire Worship Sect? What kind of background does my daughter-in-law have? Her twin sister actually claims she’s from the Fire Worship Sect... Doesn’t the Fire Worship Sect belong to the Upper Province? Why did she suddenly come to the Lower Province? Wait a minute! Rou’er told me before that my daughter-in-law, Ke’er, is Tian’er’s childhood friend. They had grown up together. How’s it possible that she has anything to do with the Fire Worship Sect? However, someone claiming to be from the Fire Worship Sect had taken her away! Moreover, that person claims she’s Ke’er’s twin sister. Not only is she powerful, but she’s even stronger than Di Jue!’ Duan Ru Feng thought to himself, his mood dampened.

Although he did not think much of Di Jue, he knew how powerful he was.

After all, Di Jue was one of the two Five-clawed Golden Dragons in the dragon clan currently.

Although he had not grown to his full potential yet, his strength was still formidable.

If that woman was really Ke’er’s twin sister, then she should be only thirty-something years old, right? Someone who was only a little over thirty years old was more powerful than Di Jue?

‘So young, and yet, she’s already monstrously strong... In that case, I don’t think she’s lying. It’s very likely she came from the Fire Worship Sect. Only those young talents from the Upper Province’s top first-rate force are so strong at this young age!” Duan Ru Feng gasped when he thought of this.

Even he had only heard of the Upper Province in the Dao Martial Saint Land. Up until now, he had never encountered anyone from the Upper Province before.

‘It has been passed down from the ancient times that there are three religions and nine forces in the Dao Martial Saint Land. The nine forces refer to forces in the Dao Martial Saint Land, from the first-rate to ninth-rate forces. The three religions, on the other hand, points to the three top first-rate forces with the longest legacy in the Dao Martial Saint Land. They’re also the most mysterious and powerful sects! Fire Worship Sect is one of them! Ever since the Dao Martial Saint Land split into two, the three great sects and a group of powerful sects had put down their roots in the Upper Province. So many years have passed, very few people from the Lower Province would even mention the three great sects anymore.’ The information Duan Ru Feng knew about the Fire Worship Sect suddenly appeared in his mind.
