Chapter 4506: Xia He Chuan

'A Divine Tree of Life left behind by a level-four supreme powerhouse?!'

Upon hearing those words, Duan Ling Tian's eyes widened in surprise. He did not expect that the former master of the Divine Tree of Life in his Little World was a level-four supreme powerhouse, a supreme powerhouse who was close to becoming an imminent World supreme powerhouse. Such a supreme powerhouse was only a level below Xiao Mu Bai and Duan You Wei.

"Huh?!"

The three supreme powerhouses of the God Defying World also looked at Duan Ling Tian in shock when they heard that the Divine Tree of Life he possessed used to belong to a level-four supreme powerhouse. Even the strongest among the three of them was just a level-two supreme powerhouse.

At the same time, Duan You Wei glanced at Duan Ling Tian, who was next to her in surprise before she said with a bright smile, "Really? Little Tian, it seems like you have a high chance of becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God. If you can't improve your law of space, you can focus on your law of time. If your law of time doesn't improve as well, you can focus on your law of life! I believe you'll be able to make great progress with at least one of them!"

Duan You Wei had just found out that Duan Ling Tian was also skilled in the law of time and the law of life. With this, it meant that if Duan Ling Tian could not become a peerless top advanced Supreme God through the law of space, he could still seek a breakthrough with his law of time or law or life. If it were an ordinary person, he or she might not have the time or energy to do so. However, Duan Ling Tian was not even 3,000 years old; he might not have much of anything, but he definitely had a lot of time.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian asked Xiao Mu Bai, surprised and curious, "Lord Xiao, how do you know that my Divine Tree of Life used to belong to a level-four supreme powerhouse?"

Xiao Mu Bai smiled faintly before he replied, "When you came to claim the liquid from the divine fountain, I sensed the aura of an old friend in you... To be precise, I sensed the aura of my old friend's Divine Tree of Life... I thought that there'd be no traces of him left after his death. I didn't expect you to obtain his Divine Tree of Life. He can rest in peace now that something he left behind is being put to good use. It's the dream of all supreme powerhouses who died to protect the God Defying World after all..."

After that, Xiao Mu Bai's smile faded, and his expression turned a little solemn as he shook his head and said, "Alright, let's not talk about sentimental things like that... I'll accompany you and Dark Night Demi Saint..."

Following that, Xiao Mu Bai waved his hand.

Duan Ling Tian felt an invisible force pulling him away.

Upon seeing this, Duan You Wei also quickly caught up with Xiao Mu Bai and Duan Ling Tian.

In just a blink of an eye, only the three supreme powerhouses who guarded the gateway of the God Defying World were left on the scene. They looked at each other in shock and disbelief.

"Is it really true? Is Duan Ling Tian so strong now that he's invincible among those below the realm of peerless top advanced Supreme Gods?" one of them asked. He did not dare to believe such an outrageous thing.

In the history of the God Defying World, there were only a few powerful cultivators close to the realm of peerless top advanced Supreme Gods, and among these few people, only two successfully became a peerless top advanced Supreme God. During the eras that these two people lived in, the God Defying World's reputation was comparable to that of the Three Upper Worlds in both the Outer Boundary and the Myriad Worlds.

"It has to be true," another supreme powerhouse said solemnly, "The Dark Night Demi Saint is an imminent World supreme powerhouse, after all. There's no need for her to lie." After a beat, he added, "With her by Duan Ling Tian's side, it's impossible for anyone to harm Duan Ling Tian in the God Defying World..."

The third supreme powerhouse said, "I agree. Currently, Duan Ling Tian isn't the young kid we can't easily plot against like before... He can be regarded as the hope of the God Defying World's new generation now. I remember that Duan Ling Tian is a member of the Inner Palace faction of the Myriad Laws Academy. I thought Huangfu Meng Yuan, Duan Ling Tian's senior sister, was shocking enough when she became almost as strong as a peerless top advanced Supreme God... However, it seems like Duan Ling Tian is even more shocking and prodigious than Huangfu Meng Yuan!"

...

Duan Ling Tian was naturally unaware of the conversation between the three supreme powerhouses. At this time, he was traveling to the Divine Offering Land; one of the Realms of Gods in the God Defying World, with Xiao Mu Bai; one of the Lords of the God Defying World, and Duan You Wei; his godsister. Ke'er; his wife, was now in the Xia clan; a prime supreme-rank force in the Divine Offering Land.

It did not take long before the trio arrived in the sky above the Xia clan's estate. There was no movement from the Xia clan at all after their arrival. Clearly, the Xia clan did not sense their presence. This was not surprising. After all, Xiao Mu Bai and Duan You Wei were both imminent World supreme powerhouses. Even if the supreme powerhouse of the Xia clan was present in the Xia clan's estate, as long as Xiao Mu Bai and Duan You Wei did not want to be discovered, the supreme powerhouse of the Xia clan would not be able to sense them.

"I'll invite the supreme powerhouse of the Xia clan here," Xiao Mu Bai said to Duan You Wei before he sent a message through Voice Transmission.

After a short while, a white ray of light shot out from the Xia clan's estate toward Duan Ling Tian and the others. The newcomer was an ordinary-looking old man who looked over seventy years old. He was none other than the ancestor and the only supreme powerhouse of the Xia clan, Xia He Chuan.

As soon as Xia He Chuan appeared, he greeted respectfully, "Greetings, Lord Xiao."

After Xia He Chuan greeted Xiao Mu Bai, Duan Ling Tian bowed slightly at Xia He Chuan and greeted him. "Greetings, ancestor."

Duan Ling Tian had met Xia He Chuan before he left for the God Defying World. Although he did not spend much time with Xia He Chuan, Xia He Chuan gave him a lot of advice and reminders before he left for the Outer Boundary. Thanks to Xie He Chuan, he managed to avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Xia He Chun looked over, shocked and confused when he saw Duan Ling Tian.

"Ling Tian? You... This..."

Xia He Chuan's reaction was only natural. After all, the husband of his descendant, a prodigy he acknowledged, who had only left for the Outer Boundary not long ago suddenly returned. Not only that, but he was accompanied by one of the Lords of the God Defying World.

At this time, Xia Mu Bai gestured to Duan You Wei, who was standing next to him, and said to Xia He Chuan, "Xia He Chuan, this person is the Dark Night Demi Saint of the Sacred Lightning Realm's Duan clan in the Outer Boundary."

Xia He Chuan was taken aback. Although he had never heard of Duan You Wei, he knew what the words 'demi Saint' meant. He quickly said, "Greetings, Dark Night Demi Saint. I'm Xia He Chuan."

"There's no need to be so polite," Duan You Wei said with a smile, "After all, you're an elder of my younger brother."

'Younger brother?'

Xia He Chuan was stunned. At the same time, he instinctively turned to look at Duan Ling Tian for an explanation.

When Duan Ling Tian noticed Xia He Chuan's gaze, he said with a slight smile, "Old ancestor, Sister Wei treats me as her younger brother. We came back this time so she can have a look at Ke'er. How's Ke'er recently?"

The smile on Duan Ling Tian's face vanished as soon as he mentioned Ke'er, replaced by a worried expression.

Xia He Chuan said with a sigh, "She's still the same. I want to slow down the deterioration of her soul, but my strength is limited, and I'm unable to do so..."

After all, Xia He Chuan was only a level-two supreme powerhouse.

Meanwhile, after seeing the worried expression on Duan Ling Tian's face, Duan You Wei said to Xia He Chuan, "Alright, bring me to my sister-in-law..."

"Yes," Xia He Chuan replied politely. Even if Duan You Wei told him that there was no need to be so polite, he found it difficult to do so. After all, she was an imminent World supreme powerhouse. She was comparable to the few Lords of the God Defying World, after all.
