Chapter 4206: 4206 How Is This Possible?!
4206 How Is This Possible?!
After Duan Ling Tian and the others were sent out of Destiny Canyon, the Lords of the various Divine Kingdoms easily used their Lord's Decrees to bring their advanced Emperors of Gods back to their sides. With the Lord's Decree, they were comparable to an advanced Supreme God.
Duan Ling Tian felt an invisible force shrouding him before carrying him away. At the same time, he felt his Divine Energy slowing down, causing a sense of powerlessness to rise in him.
'This is the strength of an advanced Emperor of Gods?!' Duan Ling Tian was inwardly shocked. He had seen the might of a rudimentary Supreme God. Although he was not a match for a rudimentary Supreme God now, he was confident that would not be the case once he became an advanced Emperor of Gods. He was shocked by Zhu Ying Jun's strength, which was boosted by the Lord's Decree. The difference in strength between a rudimentary and advanced Supreme God was like heaven and earth.
'No wonder people say that an advanced Supreme God can kill a rudimentary Supreme God with just a finger. The difference in strength is tremendous.'
Duan Ling Tian was still lost in his thoughts when he arrived at Zhu Ying Jun's side. He only returned to his senses when he heard Yun He's voice.
Yun He reminded Duan Ling Tian through Voice Transmission, "Brother Ling Tian, the Lord is talking to you."
After regaining his senses, Duan Ling Tian found that the others from the Righteous Divine Kingdom had all gathered. It seemed like there were fewer than people who died in Destiny Canyon. Then, he looked at Zhu Ying Jin with a hint of confusion, trying to recall what Zhu Ying Jun said.
Zhu Ying Jun smiled. He was not offended at all that Duan Ling Tian was distracted while he was talking. He said, "Mansion Master Duan, you've brought great glory to our Righteous Divine Kingdom!"
Not only did Duan Ling Tian rank first, but he also broke the previous record by accumulating more than 10,000 points. Due to his points, the Righteous Divine Kingdom also rose to first place on the Divine Kingdom ranking.
Following that, the participants from the Righteous Divine Kingdom spoke up one after another.
"Congratulations, my Lord."
"Congratulations, Mansion Master Duan."
Quite a few advanced Emperors of Gods from the Righteous Divine Kingdom looked at Duan Ling Tian with gratitude as they congratulated him. Previously, they had run into Duan Ling Tian when they were in Destiny Canyon. At that time, they thought Duan Ling Tian was going to kill them like how he killed the others. To their surprise, he spared them. They felt even more grateful when they heard later on about how many he had killed.
One of the mansion masters from the Righteous Divine Kingdom looked around before he said with a sigh, "It seems like there are at least a dozen people who perished in Destiny Canyon from each Divine Kingdom."
After his voice fell, many people instinctively shifted their eyes to Duan Ling Tian.
The losses that the various Divine Kingdoms suffered were likely related to Duan Ling Tian, but they did not think he was a bloodthirsty killer. After all, if they possessed his strength, they would have done the same. The Battle of the Divine Kingdoms was a competition. They participated to compete for the treasures, fortuitous encounters, and rewards in Destiny Canyon. The rewards for killing someone in Destiny Canyon were double what they usually received. Who could resist such a thing?
Unlike the Righteous Divine Kingdom, the people from the other Divine Kingdoms wore grim expressions on their faces due to the heavy losses they suffered.
At the same time, Guan Bao Yu, the Lord of the Jade Bow Divine Kingdom, said to Lang Chun Yuan through Voice Transmission, "Girl, thank you." Then, a smile bloomed on his face before he said loudly, "Congratulations on becoming a Supreme God."
The people from the Jade Bow Divine Kingdom followed suit and congratulated Lang Chun Yuan even though they were not particularly close to her. It was an obligation to congratulate her, after all.
At this time, the Divine Kingdoms that suffered smaller losses and managed to rank in the top ten finally recovered from their sadness.
On the contrary, the people from Divine Kingdoms that suffered heavy losses like the Rameau Divine Kingdom, the Rising Crag Divine Kingdom, and the Profound Law Divine Kingdom could hardly get rid of the dark expressions on their faces. Needless to say, with such heavy losses, they did not rank in the top ten.
"Let's go."
Soon after, the Lords of the Rameau Divine Kingdom, the Rising Crag Kingdom, and the Profound Law Divine Kingdom led their people away without bidding farewell to the others.
The Lord of the Soaring Divine Kingdom left without looking back as well.
There was no point for those who failed to rank in the top ten to stay any longer, after all. However, under normal circumstances, they would usually stay just to see what kind of rewards those who ranked in the top ten would receive. However, this time, none of them had the mood to stay any longer than necessary.
Before leaving, Xiao Yi, the Lord of the Soaring Divine Kingdom, turned to look at Lang Chun Yuan with eyes brimming with killing intent. At the same time, a hint of helplessness rose in his heart when he thought about how she was now a Supreme God. If she was in the Soaring Divine Kingdom's territory, it would be easy for him to kill her with the Lord's Decree. However, he was no match for her outside of the Soaring Divine Kingdom's territory.
In the end, only 12 Divine Kingdoms were left on the scene. Two Divine Kingdoms that failed to rank in the top ten did not leave because some of their representatives managed to rank in the top ten of the individual ranking list.
Based on past experiences, they would only be rewarded after a day and a night passed. No one knew why it took so long for them to receive the rewards, but all of them waited patiently.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Suddenly, three old men appeared. They were the Three Demonic Scorpion Elders from the Latent Element Heaven Sect. The trio was known to possess the strength of an ordinary advanced Supreme God if they joined forces. Before the start of the Battle of the Divine Kingdoms, they had come to recruit Duan Ling Tian and Lang Chun Yuan. In the end, Lang Chun Yuan chose the Frosty Mountain Heavenly Pool so they were only left with Duan Ling Tian, their second choice. When they heard about the results, they were shocked. They truly did not expect that their second choice would have such a shocking performance in the Battle of the Divine Kingdoms. The most shocking thing was his success in completely stabilizing his cultivation base after becoming an intermediate Emperor of Gods.
'He's a monster!'
The three old men had lived long enough to see many monstrous prodigies in their lives. However, they were still shocked by Duan Ling Tian's talent.
Finally, one of the Three Demonic Scorpion Elders said loudly, "Duan Ling Tian, the Latent Element Heaven Sect will help you become an advanced Emperor of Gods. After becoming an advanced Emperor of Gods, you'll officially join the Latent Element Heaven Sect."
Duan Ling Tian smiled faintly as he replied, "Senior, the rewards I received in Destiny Canyon exceeded my expectations, and I've yet to absorb all of them. Moreover, I still have yet to receive the reward for ranking first. There's a possibility that once I absorb all the rewards, I'll be able to break through to the realm of an advanced Emperor of Gods on my own."
Nearing the end of his words, Duan Ling Tian looked at the old man meaningfully.
The old man's expression froze for a moment. Then, he exchanged a look with the other two old men and spoke to them through Voice Transmission before he said to Duan Ling Tian, "Duan Ling Tian, if you become an advanced Emperor of Gods on your own, our Latent Element Heaven Sect will help you stabilize your cultivation base. Moreover, our sect will give you..."
The 12 Lords of the Divine Kingdoms were shocked when they heard the old man's words. They did not expect the Latent Element Heaven Sect to be willing to give up so much just to recruit Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian could sense the old man's sincerity. Moreover, the things the old man promised him were exactly what he truly needed to become a Supreme God as soon as he possibly could.
"Senior, if you keep your promise, I'll be more than willing to join the Latent Element Heaven Sect," Duan Ling Tian replied without hesitation. He would be a fool to do otherwise.
The Latent Element Heaven Sect hoped to nurture a talent strong enough to protect them in the future. Under normal circumstances, Duan Ling Tian would not like to be tied down to such a promise. However, he did not have any concerns now since he would be leaving the Trial of Gods and returning to the real world eventually.
Following that, the Lords of the Divine Kingdoms congratulated the Three Demonic Scorpion Elders.
"Congratulations, seniors!"
At this time...
"Lang Chun Yuan..."
A middle-aged man flew over. He was Nangong Ce Yi, the leader of the Frosty Mountain Heavenly Pool. He walked over to Lang Chun Yuan before he said, "Congratulations on becoming a Supreme God. As I promised previously, the Frosty Mountain Heavenly Pool will help you to stabilize your cultivation base."
As soon as Nangong Ce Yi's voice fell, Lang Chun Yuan's Divine Energy surged from her body. There was no sign of instability at all.
Guan Bao Yu, the Lord of the Jade Bow Divine Kingdom who was standing next to Lang Chun Yuan, exclaimed in shock and disbelief, "How's this possible?!"
