Chapter 4605: The Death of a World Supreme Powerhouse
For the longest time, World supreme powerhouses and Saints were peerless in the Myriad Worlds and the Outer Boundary. However, today, when faced with Duan Ling Tian's attack, the World supreme powerhouse from the Cyan Swan Saint Sect showed fear on his face.
Boom!
The World supreme powerhouse quickly mobilized all his energy to block the sword ray. At the same time, he cursed the Sect Leader of the Cyan Swan Saint Sect inwardly for relaying Lei Hong's threatening message to Duan Ling Tian. In his opinion, the latter could have conveyed the message in a better tone.
Apart from that, the World supreme powerhouse thought that Duan Ling Tian attacked him because Duan Ling Tian was young, inexperienced, and arrogant. He thought that Duan Ling Tian was really rash for attacking him.
'Isn't he worried about Lei Hong wreaking havoc in the God Defying World?' the World supreme powerhouse thought to himself. He did not think that Duan Ling Tian would be able to stop Lei Hong if Lei Hong ambushed the God Defying World.
Bang!
A loud explosion rang when the World supreme powerhouse from the Cyan Swan Saint Sect blocked Duan Ling Tian's sword ray. The collision immediately generated a huge shockwave that swept in all directions.
The imminent World supreme powerhouses were shocked by the strength of the shockwave and hurriedly retreated. Those who were weaker were immediately sent flying. Their faces turned pale, and they were horrified, caught in the battle between two powerhouses.
The Sect Leader of the Cyan Swan Saint Sect was dumbfounded. He did not expect Duan Ling Tian to make a move against the sect's World supreme powerhouse, who was his junior granduncle, as soon as he relayed Lei Hong's message.
"Is this all you've got?" Duan Ling Tian asked.
Although the World supreme powerhouse managed to block the attack, Duan Ling Tian undoubtedly had absolute control over the fight. Moreover, he did not even use full strength. Nonetheless, he was rather disappointed in the strength of his opponent. His opponent was much weaker than Zhao An Yi, the Saint of the Azure Cloud Saint Sect in the Outer Boundary, and was slightly weaker than Guo Lin, the other Saint of the Azure Cloud Saint Sect.
"L-lord Duan... L-let's talk..."
Based on Duan Ling Tian's casual demeanor, it was obvious to the World supreme powerhouse that Duan Ling Tian had been holding back. Perhaps, Duan Ling Tian did not even use half his strength. On the contrary, he had used up every ounce of his strength and barely blocked Duan Ling Tian's attack.
Before Duan Ling Tian could respond, the Sect Leader of the Cyan Swan Saint Sect said loudly, "Lord Duan, don't forget that my senior brother, Lei Hong, isn't any weaker than you! If you dare to kill my junior granduncle, Senior Brother Lei Hong won't let you get away with it!"
Duan Ling Tian only raised an eyebrow when he heard these words.
On the contrary, the expression of the World supreme powerhouse of the Cyan Swan Saint Sect changed drastically.
'Why didn't I realize before this that the sect leader is so stupid? Can't he tell that his words are only further angering Duan Ling Tian? Do all young people have such a short temper?'
The World supreme powerhouse did not even have time to appease Duan Ling Tian before Duan Ling Tian made a move again.
"I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I'll be waiting for him in the God Defying World."
As soon as Duan Ling Tian's voice fell, a sword ray that was brighter and stronger than before shot out.
Swoosh!
The terrifying sword ray broke through the World supreme powerhouse's attack and devoured it in just a blink of an eye, leaving spatial tears in its wake.
"No!"
A harrowing and resentful cry rang in the air before the sword ray multiplied and killed the World supreme powerhouse, reducing him to ashes that were swept away by the spatial turbulence.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Following that, the clear blue sky above the Cyan Swan Saint Sect darkened as dark clouds gathered. Lightning flashed in the sky accompanied by the sounds of thunder. Soon enough, the dark clouds turned red as blood began to rain down.
...
This phenomenon, which was much more intense than the phenomenon that heralded the death of imminent World supreme powerhouses, by everyone near the Cyan Swan Saint Sect.
"What is that?"
A World supreme powerhouse from a top force nearby led a few people and flew up into the sky as they looked in the direction of the Cyan Swan Saint Sect. Their eyes widened when they saw the scene. From afar, they saw a figure shattered into pieces under blood-red clouds. Blood rained down heavily as a harrowing cry rang out.
"It came from the Cyan Swan Sect!"
"I've seen the phenomenon when an imminent World supreme powerhouse died. It's really nothing compared to this one."
"We wouldn't have been able to see this phenomenon if an imminent World supreme powerhouse from the Cyan Swan Saint Sect died. If I'm not wrong, this is the phenomenon that declares the death of a World supreme powerhouse!"
"That figure and voice are very familiar... I think it's the World supreme powerhouse of the Cyan Swan Saint Sect!"
The onlookers decided to brave the blood rain and moved closer to the Cyan Swan Saint Sect to have a look. When they arrived, they saw two people in the air staring at the group of people from the Cyan Swan Saint Sect indifferently.
Although the spatial tears in front of Duan Ling Tian were already sealed, they could still sense the terrifying spatial energy lingering in the air.
Duan Ling Tian looked at the Sect Leader of the Cyan Swan Saint Sect before he said, "I'm going to send your sect leader to accompany your World supreme powerhouse as well. The rest of you should go and inform Lei Hong that I'll be waiting for him in the God Defying World."
The onlookers were shocked when they found out that the purple-clad young man in front of them was Duan Ling Tian, the second level-seven supreme powerhouse after the historical gap. Apart from that, according to the heavenly text, he was also the first person to overcome the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation after the historical gap.
