Chapter 1828: Somebody Unexpected
Chapter 1828: Somebody Unexpected
"No! Impossible! How can there be such a coincidence? How can Ling Tian be Duan Ling Tian!" Zhao Ji refused to believe this.
This was because if Ling Tian was Duan Ling Tian, then the incomplete stone tablet in Ling Tian's hand would be the Devilseal Tablet, one of the ten Great Saint Weapons on the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking!
With Ling Tian's strength, he could even overpower a Devil Cultivator at the peak of the Divine Saint Stage with the Devilseal Tablet!
He, on the other hand, was only an Early Divine Saint Stage Devil Cultivator!
At this moment, Zhao Ji wished with all his heart that Ling Tian was only calling his bluff. However, his fear of the incomplete stone tablet was extremely real. It was not a psychological effect.
'It's over.' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he looked at Zhao Ji nonchalantly, not intending to waste any more words on him.
Whoosh!
At the same time, Duan Ling Tian raised his hand and lifted the Devilseal Tablet in his hand. The Sun True Origin in his body surged out of his body and entered the Devilseal Tablet. The Devilseal Tablet began to tremble even more violently.
A dense black mist began to emit from the Devilseal Tablet before shrouding it.
In the end, they looked like bolts of black lightning that exuded a terrifying aura. When the aura of the Devilseal Tablet spread out, even people who were not Devil Cultivators would shudder in fear, let alone Devil Cultivators who were easily suppressed by the Devilseal Tablet!
When Duan Ling Tian infused his True Origin into the Devilseal Tablet, Zhao Ji realized that he was already targeted and locked down by this aura. He could not struggle against the aura at all. Not only that, but when he was locked down by this aura, he realized the energy in his body seemed to disappear no matter how he tried to mobilize it.
"NO!" Zhao Ji was completely afraid now!
At this moment, he was 100% certain the inconspicuous incomplete stone tablet in Ling Tian's hand was the Devilseal Tablet! If it was not the Devilseal Tablet, it would not have been able to restrain him in this manner.
Ling Tian's true identity was indeed Duan Ling Tian!
"Duan Ling Tian, it's all my fault! All my fault! I shouldn't have been so arrogant! I shouldn't have relied on my strength and bullied others. It's indeed right for you to slap me! I really deserved it! It's also right of you to kick me out of the Saint Martial Secret Zone! I deserve it! I deserve it! If you don't kill me, I promise not to reveal your identity. I'll dispel the hate in my heart and won't seek revenge from you again! I can swear on the lightning penalty oath! Please! I'm telling the truth! I'll swear on the lightning penalty oath! Let me go, please! Please... Let me go!" Zhao Ji decided to throw away his pride and lowered himself when faced with Duan Ling Tian who had raised the Devilseal Tablet and was ready to throw it. If he did not yield, he would definitely die if Duan Ling Tian threw the Devilseal Tablet at him!
Zhao Ji who valued his life more than anything else only had one thought in his mind. He had to live! Everything else was no longer important. Even if he was told to kill his father and grandfather, he would do it just to survive!
With the Devilseal Tablet suppressing him, there was no use even if he had cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique that contained the Soul Congregation Technique since the Devilseal Tablet targeted the soul. Once it attacked a Devil Cultivator, it would immediately shatter the soul of the Devil Cultivator!
Faced with the Devilseal Tablet, the Soul Congregation Technique was as good as nothing!
Duan Ling Tian ignored Zhao Ji's begging. Without saying another word, he threw the Devilseal Tablet he was holding in his hand.
Crash!
When the Devilseal Tablet left his hand, the air trembled and ripples began to spread in the air. Strong gusts of wind dispersed the clouds as though something was being blown apart.
Whoosh!
In the wake of the Devilseal Tablet, the sounds of wind and thunder reverberated in the air. In just a blink of an eye, it was fast approaching Zhao Ji.
'No!' At this moment, Zhao Ji who had an expression of despair on his face could only cry out inwardly.
After he had thrown the Devilseal Tablet, Duan Ling Tian merely watched coldly by the side. In his opinion, it would be easy for the Devilseal Tablet that was infused with his Sun True Origin to kill Zhao Ji.
Zhao Ji would definitely die!
Rumble!
However, when he saw the Devilseal Tablet was near Zhao Ji and was about to kill him, a loud rumbling noise resonated suddenly in the air.
The rumbling continued as a wave of denser Devil Qi rose up into the air!
"Who's that?!" When Duan Ling Tian heard the rumbling noise and felt the powerful Devil Qi, he immediately took out his Jasper Celestial Sword as he watched the horizon guardedly since the noise came from that direction.
The wave of energy was not only powerful, but it contained a shocking amount of Devil Qi. It was clear that whoever it was, that person was a powerful Devil Cultivator.
Swish!
At the same time, that Devilseal Tablet that was just a foot away from Zhao Ji was about to kill him when it seemed to have sensed something. It suddenly came to a halt, and it seemed to have lost its momentum. However, after pausing for a moment, it did not change its target and continued to head toward Zhao Ji.
In just a blink of an eye, under Duan Ling Tian's watchful gaze, a graceful figure emerged in his field of vision like a lightning.
The moment the figure appeared, it charged toward Duan Ling Tian menacingly at an extremely fast speed.
"It's her!" The graceful figure rapidly grew in Duan Ling Tian's eyes. He finally saw her appearance. It did not cross his mind that he would encounter this woman here!
Although several years had gone by and her appearance had changed a little, he could still recognize her.
This woman was none other than the rude Great Young Miss whom he encountered previously in the Nine Sect Alliances' district. It was Great Young Miss Ouyang Ruo from the Ouyang Clan in Milky Way City!
It was because of Ouyang Ruo that a great enmity formed between him and the Ouyang Clan. However, he heard the Ouyang Clan was annihilated in the end.
He had thought Ouyang Ruo had been killed as well. It did not cross his mind that she was not only alive, but she had actually appeared in front of him. Moreover, now that several years had gone by, it seemed like Ouyang Ruo was even stronger than him!
No! She was not only stronger than him, but even Zhao Ji could not compare to her at all. She used to be a lot weaker than him previously.
'What kind of fortuitous encounter did Ouyang Ruo had? A few years ago, she was still a lot weaker than I am. However, her cultivation base is so powerful now that it seems like she's surpassed the Intermediate Divine Saint Stage!' All kinds of thoughts flashed through Duan Ling Tian's mind at this moment.
"Duan Ling Tian! You caused the downfall of my Ouyang Clan and the death of my brother! Today, I must kill you to seek revenge for my brother and the Ouyang Clan!" A woman's cold voice resonated in Duan Ling Tian's ear. It was none other Ouyang Ruo's voice.
Duan Ling Tian could not even react in time before Ouyang Ruo had appeared in front of him. She was only a foot away from him and was looking at him with bloodshot eyes.
Vast energy surged out from her body, it was laced with Devil Qi, pressuring Duan Ling Tian greatly.
'She's a Devil Cultivator as well!' Duan Ling Tian gasped inwardly when he sensed the approaching danger.
Whoosh!
As though sensing that its owner, Duan Ling Tian, was in danger, the Devilseal Tablet came to a halt and immediately changed direction even though it was only a finger's breadth away from Zhao Ji, choosing to abandon him.
"Die!" Just as the Devilseal Tablet changed its direction and charged toward Ouyang Ruo, a thin saber appeared out of nowhere in her hand. The thin saber contained Devil Qi and a powerful energy that soared across the sky as it charged toward Duan Ling Tian.
Ouyang Ruo's eyes were completely red with hatred. At this instant, nothing was left in her eyes except for Duan Ling Tian. It seemed as though she was not even bothered by the Devilseal Tablet that had changed direction and was charging at her.
It was apparent that she wanted to kill Duan Ling Tian even if she had to die!
In her opinion, if it was not for Duan Ling Tian, their Ouyang Clan would not have been annihilated. Her brother would not have been sent to that horrible place to die as well!
She, on the other hand, would not have been tortured to the limit by that horrible place with only a slim chance to escape. It was only at the last minute she managed to obtain the Inheritance of the Prehistoric Devil Cultivator from that place.
It was precisely because of the Inheritance from the Prehistoric Devil Cultivator that was hidden in the Nether Ridge that her cultivation base had progressed so fast in just a few years. She had finally entered the Mastery Divine Saint Stage. She was two stages higher than Zhao Ji!
As Ouyang Ruo slashed her saber at Duan Ling Tian, he could sense the pressure it emitted. It almost caused him to suffocate.
She had made the first move after all. For this reason, although the Devilseal Tablet was fast, it was still difficult for it to seal Ouyang Ruo before her saber landed on Duan Ling Tian.
For this reason, the Devilseal Tablet would not be able to save Duan Ling Tian! At the very least, it could not save him at this moment.
"Jasper Celestial Sword! Everything depends on you now!" Duan Ling Tian had remained guarded long before Ouyang Ruo appeared and revealed her strength that seemed to be at the Intermediate Divine Saint Stage at least.
The 99 Saint Veins in his body transported all his Sun True Origin to his hands, ready to be used at any time!
When he saw Ouyang Ruo's saber was about to land on him, he activated the Sun True Origin that he had activated in advance and infused them into the Jasper Celestial Sword without holding back!
Since this matter concerned his life, he would be doomed if he made even the slightest mistake. For this reason, the amount of Sun True Origin that Duan Ling Tian infused into the Jasper Celestial Sword was all of his Sun True Origin.
When Duan Ling Tian infused all his Sun True Origin into the Jasper Celestial Sword, it caused the Jasper Celestial Sword to shine splendidly as it emitted a terrifying aura.
At the same time, golden sword energy also appeared around the sword.
Whoosh!
The Jasper Celestial Sword that had greedily absorbed all of Duan Ling Tian's Sun True Origin finally slashed out as Duan Ling Tian moved his hand to parry the saber Ouyang Ruo's hand.
