Chapter 4195: Enemies Crossing Paths
News of Duan Ling Tian, a rudimentary Emperor of Gods who had become an intermediate Emperor of Gods in Destiny Canyon, becoming almost invincible after stabilizing his cultivation base spread quickly.
"It seems like the Jade Bow Divine Kingdom's Lang Chun Yuan is the only one who can defeat him..."
"That's only natural. To begin with, she already possesses the strength of a rudimentary Supreme God. There's even a high chance that she's already broken through and become a rudimentary Supreme God."
"If she has already become a rudimentary Supreme God, it means that she can no longer kill the participants in Destiny Canyon. However, that doesn't mean she can't injure the participants..."
"If I have Lang Chun Yuan's help, there won't be a need for me to fear Duan Ling Tian!"
...
Similar to the others from the various Divine Kingdoms, the participants from the Righteous Divine Kingdom were shocked when they heard about Duan Ling Tian's strength.
"Not only did Duan Ling Tian become an intermediate Emperor of Gods, but he has also stabilized his cultivation base? Is this a joke? How did he do it?!"
"Duan Ling Tian broke through so soon? Most importantly, he's now stronger than an imminent Supreme God?"
"This is really shocking. Before entering Destiny Canyon, he can't even compare to imminent Supreme Gods. To think that he's now stronger than imminent Supreme Gods!"
Yun He, who was the most familiar with Duan Ling Tian among the people from the Righteous Divine Kingdom, was also in shock and disbelief.
'Duan Ling Tian has grown so strong?'
Yun He had met Duan Ling Tian during the competition to select the interim Mansion Master of the Divine Spirit Mansion and had witnessed Duan Ling Tian's progress since then. Despite Duan Ling Tian's talent, he knew that Duan Ling Tian was weaker than him when they entered Destiny Canyon. After all, his strength was almost that of an imminent Supreme God. He really did not expect that after entering Destiny Canyon, Duan Ling Tian's strength would surpass his so quickly.
'Is the news reliable?' Yun He wondered inwardly, feeling skeptical. However, his doubts were immediately dispelled when he checked the individual ranking list.
Suddenly...
"Yun He!"
A figure flew over and appeared in front of Yun He in just a blink of an eye.
Yun He's expression darkened immediately. He said, "Wang Chun Yi, why are you following me? We've fought twice since we entered the canyon. There's nothing you can do to change things!"
Wang Chun Yi was an advanced Emperor of Gods from the Sedge Mountain Divine Kingdom who was on par with Yun He. After entering Destiny Canyon, the duo crossed paths and fought, but the fight ended in a tie.
After arriving at the heart of Destiny Canyon, the duo met again. This time, the both of them were confident about the improvements in their strengths and were certain they could break the tie. Alas, when they fought again, the fight ended in a tie again.
The duo's second fight took place only a few days ago. As such, Yun He did not think that Wang Chun Yi's strength could have improved enough to break the tie. He said, "Wang Chun Yi, why don't you stop wasting time and look for fortuitous encounters or treasures instead?"
Wang Chun Yi smiled before he said, "Your words are not wrong if... I came alone..."
Yun He's eyes widened and his expression changed as soon as he heard Wang Chun Yi's words.
In the next moment, an advanced Emperor of Gods who comprehended the law of space appeared behind Yun He silently.
"Hu Bo!" Yun He's heart sank immediately.
Hu Bo was also from the Sedge Mountain Divine Kingdom. He was Wang Chun Yi's junior brother and was on par with Wang Chun Yi.
Yun He was aware of Hu Bo's strength. Hence, he knew that he did not stand a chance if Wang Chun Yi and Hu Bo were to join forces.
'I have to run!'
Yun He did not hesitate and tried to escape. Alas, he found that he was trapped by a powerful force.
'The Restraining Profundity!'
Yun He struggled to break free of the Restraining Profundity. In the past, he had heard that Duan Ling Tian had also used the Restraining Profundity from the law of space to prevent his targets from escaping. None of Duan Ling Tian's targets escaped, and they were all killed by Duan Ling Tian in the end.
Yun He did not expect that he would face another person who used the same technique today.
At this time, Hu Bo and Wang Chun Yi joined forces and attacked simultaneously, severely injuring Yun He's internal organs.
"Hu Bo, do you think you can kill me using the Restraining Profundity? Do you think you're Duan Ling Tian?" Yun He said with a sneer. Following that, he flashed and vanished from his spot.
Yun He's face was as pale as paper as he fled for his life. He did not stop moving even as he threw up blood.
Upon seeing this, Wang Chun Yi said frostily before he chased after Yun He, "Get him! He can't escape from us!"
Hu Bo did not hesitate and followed suit.
...
In another part of the heart of Destiny Canyon.
An old man flew in the air with a dark expression on his face.
'Damn it! I can't believe that Duan Ling Tian managed to stabilize his cultivation base so quickly in the canyon! Greed made me provoke a monster. I shouldn't have interfered back then...'
The old man was none other than the imminent Supreme God who was a mansion master from the Soaring Divine Kingdom. Previously, he had interfered and tried to take advantage of the situation while Duan Ling Tian was in the midst of killing two people.
Back then, the old man was able to escape since Duan Ling Tian was still not strong enough to kill an imminent Supreme God. Nonetheless, he regretted his actions immediately. He knew then that Duan Ling Tian could kill him as soon as Duan Ling Tian stabilized his cultivation base. As such, he planned to resign from his position as mansion master to serve as a guard for the royal family of the Soaring Divine Kingdom, hoping to obtain the protection of the Lord of the Soaring Divine Kingdom. However, he really did not expect Duan Ling Tian to stabilize his cultivation base so quickly.
'I can't leave Destiny Canyon ahead of time unless I become a Supreme God... The only thing I can do now is to find a good place to hide. I only need to hide for a short time since we'll be transported out of the canyon soon... Duan Ling Tian comprehends the law of space. He's fast, and he can use the Restraining Profundity. I won't have a chance to escape at all if I run into him!' the old man thought to himself, feeling panicked. There was nothing he wanted more than to leave Destiny Canyon now. Alas, he could only try to find a good place to hide for now. His chances of survival would rise greatly as long as he was able to leave Destiny Canyon.
Swoosh!
After half a day, the old man spotted a mountain forest in the distance. His eyes brightened immediately.
"That forest there is a good hiding place. Duan Ling Tian won't be able to find me if I hide there. Ha! Duan Ling Tian, so what if you've stabilized your cultivation base and have become stronger than me? There's nothing you can do to me if you can't find me! Once I leave Destiny Canyon, you won't be able to lay a finger on me as well!" the old man muttered with a smug expression on his face.
...
At the same time, the purple-clad Duan Ling Tian flew past a mountain forest to a barren land.
'There's such vast barren land in the heart of Destiny Canyon?' Duan Ling Tian looked at the seemingly endlessly barren land in surprise.
"I don't think there's anyone in such a desolate place... It's not an ideal hiding place, after all," Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself.
Just as his voice fell, Duan Ling Tian sensed someone's presence in the distance. He raised an eyebrow when he sensed the other party heading in his direction.
'Someone actually came to this place? He or she is unlucky to encounter me in this desolate place...'
Subsequently, Duan Ling Tian cast the Double Teleportation Profundity and appeared in front of the other person in just a blink of an eye. When he saw the other person, he was stunned. "It's you?"
The old man's expression changed drastically when he saw Duan Ling Tian. His eyes widened in shock and disbelief as he stammered, "I-Impossible! H-how is it possible that you're here as well?"
The old man reacted quickly and turned to flee without any hesitation.
At the same time, Duan Ling Tian made his move. He mobilized his Divine Energy through his 99 Heavenly Veins and cast the Restraining Profundity.
The old man's expression changed again when he realized he was trapped. He quickly brought his prominent divine artifact with a complete artifact soul out and attacked the barrier. Needless to say, it was futile. His attacks barely scratched the surface of the barrier.
Duan Ling Tian crossed his arms before he said with a sneer, "What a coincidence. We meet again. I didn't expect to meet you again so soon... You won't be able to escape this time."
