Duan Ling Tian who had incorporated the Earth Elemental Profundity into his attack charged toward Xue Jing Yu’s defensive wall of lightning and sword.

At the same time, the golden Buddha wielding an umbrella was also about to collide with Xue Jing Yu’s lightning-like long knife.

“The Earth Elemental Profundity?” Xue Jing Yu, the Second Prince of the Southern Qi Nation, was taken aback by Duan Ling Tian’s Earth Elemental Profundity. Nevertheless, like an arrow that had been shot out, it was too late for him to change his tactic. The power of his attack would diminish greatly if he were to make sudden changes. For this reason, he had no choice but to continue on. Nevertheless, his confidence did not falter.

Certain that he would win, a contemptuous smile appeared on Xue Jing Yu’s face as he thought to himself, ‘Although both of us have comprehended the Fundamental Profundities of our elements, the Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Abilities I’ve mastered is certainly superior to yours. Let’s see where you got your confidence to fight with me from….’

“Chaos Divine Earth, are you sure you’re capable of deflecting his attack? You should know it’s impossible for me to deflect his attack alone. I can only deflect a portion of his attack at most,” Duan Ling Tian asked the Chaos Divine Earth when he saw Xue Jing Yu approaching him at lightning speed.

“Boy, how dare you doubt me? Just watch!” the Chaos Divine Earth said indignantly in its childish voice. It was clearly displeased that Duan Ling Tian questioned its ability.

Duan Ling Tian felt rea.s.sured and confident after listening to the Chaos Divine Earth’s reply. Then, he completely unleashed his Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted by the Earth Elemental Profundity! Since he had broken through and became a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, this was the first time he was unleas.h.i.+ng his strength without any reservation. With his current cultivation base and his Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted by the Earth Elemental Profundity, his strength was now on par with the full strength of a One Basic Celestial Duke!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted by the Earth Elemental Profundity rose to the peak of its power in his long rod.

At the same time, the weapon in the golden Buddha’s hand grew in size as it deflected Xue Jing Yu’s knife and slammed into his defensive wall of lightning and sword.

Duan Ling Tian paid no heed to Xue Jing Yu’s attack and continued to charge forward.

When the crowd saw Duan Ling Tian had no intention of dodging Xue Jing Yu’s attack and had seemingly chosen to receive Xue Jing Yu’s attack to land a blow on Xue Jing Yu, they were shocked.

“Is he crazy? He’s not planning to dodge Xue Jing Yu’s attack?”

“Is he planning to die together with Xue Jing Yu?”

“Death is too much of an exaggeration. At most, both of them will suffer heavy injuries.”

“Duan Ling Tian must be crazy!”

“I wonder if Xue Jing Yu would stick to his attack at the risk of suffering heavy injuries or change his attack? However, if he changes his attack now, he risks suffering minor injuries while Duan Ling Tian escapes unscathed. At that time, if they clash again, he’ll be at a disadvantage.”

“B-brother Duan…” Huang Jia Long was stunned.

Even Hu Lin Yi, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation, and the people from the Supporting Fall Nation were shocked. They did not expect Duan Ling Tian to go to such extremes.

The crowd could not help but feel chills running up their spines as they looked at Duan Ling Tian! He must be mad; a desperate lunatic who was willing to risk his life just for a duel!

Meanwhile, Xue Jing Yu was both taken aback and angered by Duan Ling Tian’s drastic action. He wielded his knife and continued on his collision course with Duan Ling Tian. “You intend for both of us to suffer injuries? Fine, I’ll fulfill your wis.h.!.+ Let’s see who will suffer more in the end!”

Boom!

A thunderous explosion rang in the air when Duan Ling Tian’s long rod landed on Xue Jing Yu’s defensive wall of lightning and swords. Its speed was greatly reduced due to the resistance from Xue Jing Yu’s defense.

Simultaneously, streaks of lights shot out in all directions when Xue Jing Yu’s knife landed on the umbrella held by the golden Buddha figure. The air rippled, and the mustard yellow light shrouding the umbrella flashed in a frenzy.

About a breath later, Duan Ling Tian’s long rod shattered Xue Jing Yu’s defensive wall at the cost of exhausting a significant portion of its power.

On the contrary, Xue Jing Yu failed to breach Duan Ling Tian’s defense regardless of how many times he struck with his King Grade Celestial Knife. The umbrella in the golden Buddha figure’s hand remained intact.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian’s long rod was about to land on Xue Jing Yu.

Clang!

Suddenly, armor seemed to appear on Xue Jing Yu’s body. It shone brightly with a golden light, looking indestructible. Upon closer inspection, one could see purple lightning bolts flas.h.i.+ng in the golden light. It was obvious Xue Jing Yu had incorporated the Thunder Elemental Profundity into the armor.

“I-is that a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon?”

“I’ve heard that the Imperial Family of the Southern Qi Nation has a defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon called the Golden Light Celestial Armor. I didn’t think it’s in the possession of the second prince. The Emperor of the Southern Qi Nation is really generous!”

“How’s that surprising? It’s only natural the Emperor of the Southern Qi Nation would give this Celestial Weapon to Xue Jing Yu as protection since he will be entering the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.”

“Once Xue Jing Yu send his Celestial Origin Energy into his defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon, its defensive strength will be stronger than Duan Ling Tian’s second Celestial Weapon, which is an offensive-defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon, that has been boosted with Celestial Origin Energy and Earth Elemental Profundity!”

The crowd was astonished at the sight of the Golden Light Celestial Armor.

‘No wonder he refuses to surrender. As it turns out, he possesses a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he c.o.c.ked an eyebrow. Nevertheless, he did not retreat. He advanced fiercely and struck Xue Jing Yu’s golden armor. After three breaths, Xue Jing Yu’s Golden Light Celestial Armor was destroyed.

Since Xue Jing Yu had focused most of his strength on attacking, the Golden Light Celestial Armor’s defensive power was weaker.

Although the strength of Duan Ling Tian’s fierce attack was greatly reduced after destroying Xue Jing Yu’s defenses, the wall of lightning and sword and the Golden Light Celestial Armor, his attack was sufficient to send Xue Jing Yu flying like an arrow when it landed.

Xue Jing Yu landed with a loud crash after he was sent flying back. He retched and spat out a mouthful of blood; his face was as pale as a sheet of paper. His upper robe was torn from the attack, revealing a dark armor underneath.

At this moment, the crowd instinctively turned to look at Duan Ling Tian who was standing calmly with his umbrella and long rod in hand. His expression remained unchanged from the beginning. Most importantly, he was completely unharmed! He had escaped unscathed!

“H-how’s that possible?!”

“H-he’s not injured at all!”

“What a formidable defense! Could he have comprehended some defensive profundities from the law of earth?”

“Impossible. If that were the case, the Celestial Kings present would be able to sense it.”

Xue Jing Yu had sustained minor injuries while Duan Ling Tian was untouched.

Everyone was thoroughly shocked as they looked at Duan Ling Tian incredulously.

Even Hu Lin Yi, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation, was staring at Duan Ling Tian in shock. He had prepared himself for Duan Ling Tian’s loss or for the battle to end in a draw. He did not expect Duan Ling Tian to defeat and injure Xue Jing Yu, let alone coming out from the duel without even a scratch. When he regained his senses, his eyes lit up when he looked at Duan Ling Tian. ‘Based on Xue Jing Yu’s attack, not even an ordinary One Basic Celestial Duke would be able to deflect it with such ease. Among all the partic.i.p.ants who will be entering the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, Duan Ling Tian might possibly rank in the top ten!’

Previously, Hu Lin Yi had thought Duan Ling Tian’s strength would be ranked in the top 100 among the partic.i.p.ants who would be entering the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. However, after watching Duan Ling Tian’s performance, he was confident Duan Ling Tian’s strength would be ranked in the top ten, and possibly even in the top three!

Many Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from grade-eight and grade-seven forces would be entering the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. In the regions under the Profound Nether Mansion, the Three Sects and Two Clans were the most powerful grade-seven force. Above that was the Profound Nether Mansion itself. It was very rare for those from the grade-seven forces to be able to directly join the Profound Nether Mansion. They had to be extremely outstanding among all the other talented cultivators to join the mansion. For this reason, many people would join one of the Three Sects and Two Clans first and work for an opportunity to join the Profound Nether Mansion.

Therefore, the majority of the talented Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestials from the grade-seven forces strove to join one of the Three Sects and Two Clans if they survived the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. There was no lack of talent among these partic.i.p.ants. In fact, there would be even a few Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestials who had comprehended two profundities of an element.

Since Hu Lin Yi knew there were a lot of geniuses among the partic.i.p.ants, he did not think Duan Ling Tian would rank on top. Although Duan Ling Tian was extremely strong, he did not think Duan Ling Tian had comprehended two profundities from his law of earth. Therefore, he was rather certain Duan Ling Tian was no match for those genius Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from grade-seven forces who had comprehended two profundities from a law.
