War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

2178 Guardian Ling Tian

One of a kind!

This was what Tang Xuan, the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect, had to say about Duan Ling Tian’s achievement in Sword Dao.

Duan Ling Tian was not surprised by Tang Xuan’s assessment. After all, he cultivated the Supreme Sword Dao Mental Cultivation Method, the Sovereign Heart Sword. It was a rare Sword Dao technique that was superior to the other Sword Dao martial tactics in this mundane realm. However, he was slightly taken aback that Tang Xuan was able to see this. Just as expected of the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect! ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Noᴠelꜰɪre.nᴇt

“One of a kind?” Meanwhile, the three Great Guardians of Fire Worship Sect finally regained their senses. They were baffled by Tang Xuan’s words. They did not expect the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect would compliment Duan Ling Tian’s achievement in Sword Dao. However, when Zi Feng and Qing Huo recalled how Duan Ling Tian’s sword had disappeared the instant it appeared, they agreed with Tang Xuan. Putting Tang Xuan aside, both of them had never seen such a sword technique before.

As for Hong Yun, despite discovering that Duan Ling Tian had no intention of crippling her hand, she still trembled in fear when she recalled the scene earlier. Duan Ling Tian’s speed was too fast! Before she even realized what was happening, the sword was already near her. When she finally regained her senses, it was too late for her to block his sword. If Tang Xuan did not make a move, and if it was not for the fact that Duan Ling Tian had no intention of hurting her, she would not be able to prevent her hand from being crippled.

“Duan Ling Tian, it seems like the rumor is true. Based on your strength and your achievement in Sword Dao, it won’t be difficult at all for you to kill Golden Lion King Xie Kang Xun, one of the Four Great Karmapas of Black Kshetra Sect.” Tang Xuan’s eyes were gleaming as he looked at Duan Ling Tian. It was as though he was looking at a rare treasure. In fact, he really did think of Duan Ling Tian like a rare treasure. After all, Duan Ling Tian was even more powerful than Hong Yun, one of the Guardians of Fire Worship Sect. If it was a Death Duel, Hong Yun would have been killed in ten moves.

Yes. I did kill Xie Kang Xun.” Duan Ling Tian nodded.

“You really killed Xie Kang Xun with three moves using your sword?” Hong Yun asked urgently as soon as Duan Ling Tian spoke. It seemed as though she could not wait to hear the answer.

Duan Ling Tian had almost crippled Hong Yun’s hand earlier because she had let down her guard. Otherwise, she would not have ended up in such a sorry state. However, she might have let her guard down, but she knew very well that she was no match for Duan Ling Tian at all even if she was guarded.

Hongwanted to know if Duan Ling Tian really killed Xie Kang Xun with three moves because if it was true, it meant that Duan Ling Tian did not use all his strength when they fought earlier. Although she was stronger than Xie Kang Xun, she was just a little stronger than him.

“If I was serious about killing him, I could’ve killed him with just a move!” Duan Ling Tian said indifferently in response to Hong Yun’s question.

The entire place fell silent immediately.

Duan Ling Tian’s confident words echoed in everyone’s ears. His words left no room for arguments. Th1s chapter is updated by n)ovel/\bin/\

“You can kill Xie Kang Xun with just a move if you wanted to?” At this moment, apart from Hong Yun, Zi Feng and Qing Huo also realized Duan Ling Tian’s strength was comparable to a powerhouse at the Eight Form of the Saint Celestial Stage! Among the three Guardians, Zi Feng was the only one who was at the Eight Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

When Hong Yun recovered from her shock, she looked at Zi Feng and asked through Voice Transmission, “Guardian Zi Feng, do you think you’ll be able to defeat Duan Ling Tian?”

Zi Feng did not answer Hong Yun immediately. He thought about it for a moment before he said truthfully, “If he can really kill Xie Kang Xun with just a move, I might not be a match for him.”

“It seems like he held back a lot when we fought earlier.” Guardian Hong Yun smiled wryly.

Naturally, Hong Yun and everyone else were unaware that most of Duan Ling Tian’s strength came from the Celestial Supreme Treasure, the Jasper Celestial Sword. With the sword, he was stronger than most powerhouses below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!

Tang Xuan regained his senses first. He smiled as he looked at Duan Ling Tian and said, “Good! Good! After all these years, the Fire Worship Sect finally has another powerhouse above the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage...”

Zi Feng, Qing Huo, and Hong Yun no longer dared to look down on Duan Ling Tian now that they had witnessed his strength. They were overwhelmed by their emotions when they heard Tang Xuan’s words. From today onward, the Fire Worship Sect gained another powerhouse at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage! Moreover, it seemed like Duan Ling Tian’s was special, he was no ordinary powerhouse at the Eight Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

“From now on, Duan Ling Tian will become the fourth Guardian of Fire Worship Sect!” Tang Xuan announced in front of Duan Ling Tian and the three Guardians of Fire Worship Sect.

“A Guardian of Fire Worship Sect?” Duan Ling Tian was taken aback by Tang Xuan’s announcement.

“Congratulations, Guardian Ling Tian!”

“Congratulations, Guardian Ling Tian!”

Duan Ling Tian was still stunned when Zi Feng, Qing Huo, and Hong Yun began to congratulate him. They were sincere when they congratulated him. This was a world where the strong ones were revered after all. They all acknowledged Duan Ling Tian’s strength.

Thank you, Guardians.” Duan Ling Tian quickly expressed his gratitude when he regained his senses. He felt as though he was dreaming. He had become a Guardian of Fire Worship Sect just like this? He could still remember when he first arrived in the Fire Worship Sect and how he had lived in seclusion to cultivate.

The three Guardians only smiled when they heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. After a while, they all took their leave. They all left with mixed emotions. It felt as though their world was turned upside down. Someone they had thought was an ordinary true disciple in the Fire Worship Sect had become someone who shared the same status with them and became the fourth Guardian in the Fire Worship Sect in just a blink of an eye! Out of three of them, Qing Huo was the one who felt this the most since he had more contact with Duan Ling Tian compared to the others.

To think I wanted to take him in as my disciple before this...’ The moment Qing Huo thought of this, he felt he was really naive in the past. He felt his face turn hot and he wanted to dig a hole to hide in.

After the three Guardians left, Tang Xuan raised his hand and pricked his finger.

Swoosh!

As a drop of blood rose into the sky, Tang Xuan swore on the lightning penalty oath as he had promised to do in the announcement he made. He swore that no one in Fire Worship Sect would try to snatch the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet, from Duan Ling Tian.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Nine claps of thunder reverberated in the air in accordance with the lightning penalty oath that Tang Xuan had just sworn.

“Although you’re more than strong enough to wield the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet, I will still honor the promise I made before this, Guardian Ling Tian,” Tang Xuan said with a smile as he looked at Duan Ling Tian.

Thank you, Sect Leader.” Duan Ling Tian immediately expressed his gratitude.

“Guardian Ling Tian, aren’t you curious how I know you have no intention of crippling Guardian Hong Yun’s hand?” Tang Xuan asked.

Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded. Indeed, he had found the matter baffling.

“I could tell you have no intention of crippling Guardian Hong Yun’s hand because when you wielded your sword earlier, it didn’t have any killing or malicious intent. It was enough for me to see then that the fight was like a friendly match,” Tang Xuan explained with a smile.

Upon hearing Tang Xuan’s words, Duan Ling Tian was hit by a pang of realization. He was shocked at how astute the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect was.

It seems like I’ll still have to tread carefully to save Ke’er and our daughter even if I’ve become a Guardian in Fire Worship Sect. If Tang Xuan finds out about it, I won’t be the only one in danger. Ke’er and our daughter would be in danger as well.’ Duan Ling Tian felt a hint of dread when he realized how astute Tang Xuan was. He had thought that becoming a Guardian in the Fire Worship Sect would make it easier for him to rescue Ke’er and their daughter since he would be able to go around the Fire Worship Sect unimpeded.

After all, In the Fire Worship Sect, a Guardian had a very lofty position. The position was only inferior to the Sect Leader. It was higher than the positions of Vice Sect Leaders and the other Golden Flame Elders and Silver Flame Elders.

“Guardian Ling Tian,” Tang Xuan’s expression suddenly turned solemn as he said, “After three days, I’ll officially bestow you with the title in the Central Square of Saint Island before all the elders and disciples. At that time, we will release news about the fourth Guardian of Fire Worship Sect, Guardian Ling Tian, the number one prodigy in the Dao Martial Saint Land, to the western region and the rest of the Upper Province!” Tang Xuan had complimented Duan Ling Tian again when he called him the number one prodigy in the Dao Martial Saint Land!

There was another number one prodigy in the Dao Martial Saint Land. This person was Pei Si Hai, the direct disciple of the Nie Wu Tian, the number one powerhouse in the Dao Martial Saint Land. He was famous for breaking through to the Eight Form of the Saint Celestial Stage before he had turned a hundred years old.
