Chapter 440: Breaking Out From The Formation

The changes in Duan Ling Tian's expression were completely noticed by Feng Tian Wu.

But she entirely didn't know exactly what had happened, and she could only silently stand there.

"Hmm?" In next to no time, Duan Ling Tian completely returned to his senses.

Only now did he notice that Elder Kong was still seriously inspecting the lifetime worth of experience in the Dao of inscriptions left behind by that Inscription Master.

"These experiences in inscriptions are completely useless to me... However, it could be considered to have helped Elder Kong." Duan Ling Tian shook his head and smiled.

After he realized that Elder Kong would still require a period of time before being able to completely look through the experiences in the art of inscription on the walls, Duan Ling Tian directly sat cross-legged on the stone bed and completely immersed himself into cultivation after letting Feng Tian Wu know he would be cultivating.

Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, Wind Wyrm Form!

The two year agreement with that Zither Young Master was impending, and Duan Ling Tian didn't dare slack in the slightest.

Duan Ling Tian's action were noticed by Feng Wu Dao and he couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.

A genius didn't completely rely on natural talent and fortune, and relied even more on the genius's own hard work.

For example, if a peerless genius didn't have the mind to cultivate and only cared about enjoying himself, then the genius was bound to be unable to attain great achievements, and even greater natural talent was of no use.

In next to no time, Feng Wu Dao and Feng Tian Wu sat on the stone bed and closed their eyes to cultivate.

The stone bed was extremely large, and it didn't seem crowded in the slightest with three people sitting cross-legged on it.

Duan Ling Tian completely forgot the time when he was completely immersed in his cultivation.

He only knew to ceaselessly improve the Origin Energy in his body, and ceaselessly improve his cultivation...

He only heaved a sigh of relief and opened his eyes when his cultivation arrived at the breakthrough point between the fifth level of the Nascent Soul Stage and the sixth level of the Nascent Soul Stage.

"City Governor, Elder Kong, Tian Wu." Only now did Duan Ling Tian notice that the three of them were sitting at the stone table in the abode and were chatting in low voices.

All of them revealed smiles on their faces when they noticed Duan Ling Tian had awoken.

Especially Feng Tian Wu, her pair of eyes that were like autumn water emitted traces of happiness that was difficult to notice.

"Big Brother Duan, you've awoken." Feng Tian Wu stood up and lightly smiled as she looked at Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian nodded, and he couldn't help but asked when he noticed the wave of hunger that came from his stomach. "How long did I cultivate this time?"

"One and a half months," said Feng Tian Wu.

"One and a half months..." Duan Ling Tian's brows raised. In other words, there was only another four and a half months of time remaining before the two year agreement with Zither Young Master.

"Elder Kong, you've finished looking through it?" Duan Ling Tian glanced at the walls surrounding the abode, then looked at the grey clothed old man.

"Yes." The old man nodded with a smile, and his face was glowing. Obviously, his gains were quite substantial. "Brother Duan, are you not going to take a look?"

"These experiences in the art of inscriptions are of no help to me." Duan Ling Tian shook his head.

The old man came to a sudden understanding.

If he had no knowledge of Duan Ling Tian's attainments in the Dao of inscriptions, he might have felt that the words Duan Ling Tian spoke were too arrogant.

"Looks like the attainments in the Dao of inscription of that Master of Brother Duan's that is from the Foreign Lands surpasses the owner of this abode, that great Inscription Master that had broken through to the Void Transformation Stage!" Now, only shock remained in his heart.

"Since it's like this, then let's leave," Feng Wu Dao said slowly.

Duan Ling Tian, Elder Kong, and Feng Tian Wu had no objections.

In next to no time, their group of four had left the Soulcleanse Pool.

"Eh, Little Gold hasn't awoken yet." Feng Tian Wu carried up the little gold mouse in her arms, and she was slightly surprised when she noticed the little gold mouse was still sound asleep.

After all, one and a half months had passed by now.

"She'll probably still need to sleep for a period of time." Duan Ling Tian shook his head and smiled. He originally wanted to go break open the inscription formation, but when he noticed Elder Kong seemed to have the intention to do it, he withdrew his Spiritual Force that had stretched out and allowed Elder Kong to do it.

But, after a long time, Elder Kong's sweat flowed down like the rain, yet he was still unable to break open the inscription formation.

"Elder Kong, are you still unable?" Feng Wu Dao was slightly astonished.

Didn't Elder Kong master all the lifetime worth of experiences in the Dao of inscriptions that was left behind by that Inscription Master?

Why is he unable to even break open the inscription formation of that person?

Elder Kong was slightly embarrassed when he heard this. "I might have to practice for a while first..."

"Allow me." Duan Ling Tian shook his head and smiled. His Spiritual Force swept out and relying on the memories of the Rebirth Martial Emperor, he was able to easily see through the core of this inscription formation.

Although Duan Ling Tian's Spiritual Force was far inferior to Elder Kong, he'd found the core of the inscription formation and was able to easily break open the inscription formation.

Whoosh!

The dusky clouds and mist before him roiled, and the inscription formation opened once again.

Duan Ling Tian's group of four flew out, and along with Duan Ling Tian's Spiritual Force extending out and entering the core once again, the inscription formation was closed up once more.

Not only that, he even changed the configuration of the inscription formation that made it open once every three years.

"In the future, this Soulcleanse Pool won't be opened to the public anymore." Duan Ling Tian said to Feng Wu Dao and the others.

The three of them nodded as they didn't feel that Duan Ling Tian's actions were going too far.

After all, the Nether Soul Fruit had been eaten by the little gold mouse, and the Soulcleanse Pool wouldn't give birth to any more spirit energy in the future.

Even if the opening configuration of the inscription formation wasn't changed by Duan Ling Tian, it was impossible for anyone to obtain any benefit from the Soulcleanse Pool in the future.

In next to no time, Duan Ling Tian's group of four once again ascended the flying demon beast and returned to Phoenix Nest City.

Phoenix Nest City was peaceful, and it was no different from when they left.

This time, after returning to the City Governor's Estate for three days, Duan Ling Tian intended to bid his farewells and leave.

"Big Brother Duan, you're leaving so soon?" Feng Tian Wu's beautiful face was filled with reluctance.

"All good things must come to an end... Moreover, I have some things to do. I'll surely come see you in the future." Duan Ling Tian lightly smiled as he spoke.

Feng Tian Wu lightly nodded as she was able to perceive that Duan Ling Tian was resolute on leaving.

"Ling Tian, remember the words you've spoken," Feng Wu Dao looked at Duan Ling Tian and said via voice transmission.

"You can be at ease, City Governor. I, Duan Ling Tian, always keep my promises, and I would absolutely not go back against my word... So long as I've really awoken a Water Spirit Body or Ice Spirit Body one day in the future, then I'll marry Tian Wu and save her life." Duan Ling Tian nodded to Feng Wu Dao as he spoke via voice transmission. "At that time, I'll come to Phoenix Nest City again."

"There's no need." Feng Wu Dao's voice transmission entered into Duan Ling Tian's ears, and it caused him to be unable to help himself from being stunned. "There's no need? City Governor, you..."

"What I mean is, you don't have to come to Phoenix Nest City in the future. After a period of time, we'll return to where we came from... In the future, if you want to find us, then go to the capital of the Darkhan Dynasty! You only have to inquire about the Feng Clan when you arrive at the capital." Feng Wu Dao's voice transmission sounded out once again, and allowed Duan Ling Tian to come to a sudden understanding.

Feng Clan.

Presumably, it was the clan that Feng Wu Dao and the others were from.

He'd committed it to memory.

"Big Brother Duan, you haven't told us where you're from." Feng Tian Wu looked at Duan Ling Tian as she asked.

"What? You're afraid I'll go missing?" Duan Ling Tian joked, causing the heavy atmosphere in the scene to ease up slightly. "I'm from the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom that's south of Darkstone Empire... Presently, I've joined the leaders amongst the five great sects of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, the Seven Star Sword Sect. If nothing unexpected happens, then I ought to be in the Seven Star Sword Sect for the next few years."

"Seven Star Sword Sect." Feng Tian Wu nodded and silently committed it to memory.

"Alright, I ought to leave... Elder Kong, farewell!" Duan Ling Tian bid his farewells to Elder Kong before leaving the City Governor's Estate.

After Duan Ling Tian left.

"Alright, Wu, he's already left." Feng Wu Dao glanced at his daughter who still had her head raised as she looked into the distance, and he shook his head.

He knew clearly in his heart that the heart of his daughter had already gone off with that kid, Duan Ling Tian.

"Duan Ling Tian, you're really something... Since a young age, this daughter of mine possessed peerless natural talent and was extremely prideful, but you've actually captured her heart so quickly." Even though this made him feel displeased, he had to admit it.

"Mmm." Feng Tian Wu withdrew her gaze, and her beautiful face was filled with a sense of loss.

The atmosphere became depressed once again.

Outside Phoenix Nest City.

"Go!" A tall horse that seemed as if it was tainted with blood flashed out, and a violet clothed young man sat on it.

It was exactly Duan Ling Tian who'd just left Phoenix Nest City.

"I forgot Little Gold is still in deep slumber.... I'm can only temporarily hurry on the journey with a Ferghana Horse." Duan Ling Tian had a bitter smile on his face.

He only thought of this after he left the City Governor's Estate.

Although he could ask for a flying beast from Feng Wu Dao if he returned to the City Governor's Estate now, he dispelled this thought in the end.

Since he wasn't in a hurry for time, he wouldn't go trouble another.

He didn't want to owe Feng Wu Dao a favor.

Duan Ling Tian spurred his horse to swift gallop forward, heading all the way south.

Pressing forward day and night and enduring the hardships of an arduous journey.

He seemed as if he completely didn't have a destination.

"Four and a half months... I'll randomly go about during this period of time and temper myself." Duan Ling Tian decided in his heart.

Seven Star Sword Sect, Dubhe Peak.

In a spacious palace that stood on the mountainside of Dubhe Peak like a monster that lay dormant there.

"Big Brother Lei! Big Brother Lei!" An urgent voice sounded out within the palace.

A green clothed youth around the age of 17 or 18 pushed open the door and entered.

"Pu!" The blue clothed young man who sat on the bed in cultivation was alarmed by this, and the sudden stimulation made his lifeblood to circulate in the opposite direction, causing him to forcefully spit out a mouthful of blood.

The blue clothed young man opened his eyes, and a cold light that was difficult to notice flashed within before quickly being restrained, and he forced out a trace of a smile as he looked at the green clothed youth that had entered. "Little Brother Ke, is there something that you're urgently looking for me for?"

He knew clearly in his heart that although this green clothed youth before him was his cousin brother, he was far from being able to compare with the youth's status.

Even to the extent that it was all thanks to this cousin brother that he was able to cultivate here.

After all, the palace he was in now was the cultivation location of one of the two great Guardian Elders of the Seven Star Sword Sect, Elder Ming.

Elder Ming was the great grandfather of his cousin brother's family.

"Big Brother Lei, look at this..." The green clothed youth looked at the blue clothed young man and casually withdrew a small booklet and flipped it to the middle before passing it over. "These words..."

The blue clothed young man looked over.

At the middle page of the small booklet were extremely eye piercing words.

One must first castrate one's self if there is desire to cultivate the second half;

Without castration, it's difficult to succeed in the divine cultivation method;

Once castrated, rebirth shall be achieved!
