Chapter 902: Ten Days Later
Ye Xuan's words left Huang Daniu totally dejected.
Indeed.
Even without him, Duan Ling Tian would still be able to help Wood Peak obtain the glory of getting the first place in the Battle of the Five Peaks with just his strength alone.
"Alright," Duan Ling Tian interrupted and smoothed over the dispute when he could no longer stand it, "Today, Daniu defeated Hu Fei from Fire Peak you know! Moreover, he also helped avenged Elder Yang, and he also demonstrated a splendid opening performance for Wood Peak. His contributions cannot go unnoticed!"
The moment Huang Daniu heard this, a smile immediately appeared on his face again as he cast a proud look at Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan, on the other hand, rolled her eyes and did not even bother to take notice of him.
"Let's get back to our cultivation," Duan Ling Tian sighed helplessly. He looked at these two funny fellows and bade them goodbye before leaving to return to his room.
After returning to the room, Duan Ling Tian sat cross-legged on the bed and sensed the Origin Energy in his body that had undergone a transformation. He could not suppress the brilliant smile that crept up on his face.
"Seventh Level Void Interpretation!"
At the time of the breakthrough earlier, everything happened in a blink of an eye. It was so fast that he felt like it was merely a dream.
"Not only did I make a breakthrough to the Seventh Level Void Interpretation, I've also reached the bottleneck leading up to the Eight Level Void Interpretation. Soon enough, I'll be able to make another breakthrough to the Eighth Level Void Interpretation!" Duan Ling Tian's heart boiled with excitement when he thought about this. He was not able to calm for quite a long while.
"My cultivation base has made a breakthrough, my Spiritual Energy has also leveled up, way ahead of my Concepts. However, my Concepts will have a new breakthrough as well ten days later!" Duan Ling Tian's face broke out into a smile again when he thought about the Profound Assimilation Formation.
From what he could see, that Profound Assimilation Formation was exactly like a timely rain. Just when the Concepts that he had comprehended was in decline, an opportunity came knocking on the door.
"Ten more days... If I can make another breakthrough to the Eighth Level Void Interpretation during these ten days, it'll be amazing!" Duan Ling Tian did not hesitate anymore when he thought about this. Hastily, he shut his eyes and started to cultivate quietly.
Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, Sword Dragon Form!
The Origin Energy in Duan Ling Tian's body began to get agitated. Although it managed to drive a small dose of the Rebirth Pill's medicinal efficacy, the medicinal efficacy was no longer as tyrannical as it was previously.
"I've used external Origin and Spiritual Energy to stimulate the medicinal power of this Rebirth Pill, and now it has become like a bird that gets startled by the mere twang of a bow-string. It's would be almost impossible for it to be stimulated by these same methods anymore in the future." Duan Ling Tian was very clear about this.
Unless he consumed the Spirit Fruit so that the medicinal efficacy of the Spirit Fruit could help catalyze the medicinal force of the Rebirth Pill, he could only elevate his own cultivation base so that the medicinal efficacy of the Rebirth Pill would be more apparent and improve his cultivation base faster.
Duan Ling Tian's current goal was to make a breakthrough to the Eighth Level Void Interpretation within these ten days.
However, as proven by fact, this was merely a goal. A dream would always be beautiful, and reality would always be harsh.
After ten days, the bottleneck that led to the Eighth Level Void Interpretation in Duan Ling Tian's body did not budge an inch at all.
"Duan Ling Tian!" A familiar voice resonated by his Duan Ling Tian's ear and woke him up from his cultivation. He could not suppress the sigh that came out of his mouth as he murmured, "Sigh, looks like I'm too greedy. Unless I have a spirit fruit with me, I'm afraid I'll probably need at least two to three months to complete my breakthrough otherwise!"
"It's already been ten days?" Duan Ling Tian asked curiously as he opened the room door. He saw Huang Daniu outside the door.
"You really forget the time when you cultivate, huh? Today's the day we're going to Gold Peak to enter the Profound Assimilation Formation. The Peak Master is already waiting for us," Huang Daniu laughed.
"Let's go," Duan Ling Tian nodded his head and rose up to the air along with Huang Daniu. Within seconds, he saw Qi Yu who was already waiting in the sky.
"Peak Master," Duan Ling Tian greeted.
Qi Yu nodded and smiled in response, "Let's go."
Before Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu could response, he lifted up a hand. A vast majestic and invisible force immediately swept out and enveloped Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu.
Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu's faces changed colors instantly when they sensed the powerful force that was pressing down on them.
In the next moment, they sighed in relief when they noticed that the power that shrouded them quivered, but it did not hurt them at all.
"We're here," Qi Yu's voice entered their ears at the same time.
When they narrowed their eyes and looked ahead, the mountain peak before them looked familiar somehow. Both of them were equally stunned by this.
"G-Gold Peak?" Huang Daniu asked, his mouth was agape.
Just a moment ago he was still at Wood Peak, but he was already at Gold Peak in the next second?
Although the distance between the two Peaks was not too far apart, Huang Daniu was still completely taken by surprise when he was transferred here in just a blink of an eye.
'What a tremendously fast speed!' Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes as he exclaimed in surprise in his heart.
This Peak Master of Wood Peak was definitely not just at the Ninth Level Void Transformation. He had most likely reached the peak of the Void Transformation! Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to possess such a speed.
"We're slightly late," As if sensing something, Qi Yu smiled nonchalantly and led Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu to the platform on Gold Peak's hillside.
Duan Ling Tian followed closely behind. When they reached the gate of a huge palace on the platform, he finally knew why Qi Yu had said so.
At this moment, apart from Guo Chong, the Sect Leader of the Five Element Sect and his two direct disciples, the Peak Masters of Water, Fire and Earth Peaks were already inside the palace. There were two young people standing by each of their sides.
Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu walked side by side behind Qi Yu into the palace. At the same time, Duan Ling Tian looked around curiously at the surroundings. He discovered that the inside of the palace was filled with Inscription aura. It was obvious that the palace was covered with many Inscription Formations.
"Huh?" Duan Ling Tian suddenly raised his brows and looked at the spacious high platform inside the palace.
On that high platform, Duan Ling Tian's Spiritual Energy could sense a hint of the familiar aura of an Inscription Formation.
This was naturally the first time he personally sensed the aura. The reason why it was familiar was because the Rebirth Martial Emperor was familiar with this formation. Duan Ling Tian would undoubtedly find it familiar since he possessed the memories from the two reincarnations of the Rebirth Martial Emperor.
"The Profound Assimilation Formation!"
Duan Ling Tian had never thought that the Profound Assimilation Formation would actually be inside the palace. He could not help but immediately feel excited about this discovery.
"Hurmph! Qi Yu! You and your Wood Peak disciples sure are haughty! How dare you let the Sect Leader wait for you!" Cha Bai, the Peak Master of Fire Peak, immediately swept a cold glance at them and started mocking them the moment they entered the palace.
"Cha Bai, looks like you've forgotten the pain of your healed wounds, huh?" Qi Yu smirked in disdain, "Or perhaps, I've shown you too much mercy the last time? If you really want it, I can always let you be bedridden for several months."
A threat!
A bold and conspicuous threat!
Cha Bai turned pale and green at once upon hearing Qi Yu's words. Although he was enraged, he did not dare to do anything.
"S-Sect leader... Y-You see, how dare Qi Yu step on your head now!" Cha Bai took a deep breath. He knew that he was no match for Qi Yu. Instead of having a direct conflict with Qi Yu, he turned to Guo Chong and complained in anger.
Unfortunately, Guo Chong ignored his complaints and nodded towards Qi Yu before saying, "Since all of us are here, let us begin."
"The ten of you will go up to the high platform over there and sit down cross-legged. After you've settled down, you'll take out the Concept Fragments and start your comprehension process. 15 minutes later, I'll activate the Profound Assimilation Formation," Guo Chong announced unhurriedly as he swept a glance across the ten people, including Duan Ling Tian.
"After the Profound Assimilation Formation is activated, I'll put in several hundred pieces of Concept Fragments. At that time, these Fragments will be absorbed by the Profound Assimilation Formation and transform into Concept Energy that'll help you elevate your Concept quickly! As to what extent they'll be elevated... Well, that'll depend on your own comprehension and good fortune," Guo Chong finished in one breath.
The moment he finished his announcement, Nangong Chen and Nangong Yi who were by his side instantly flew upwards to the spacious high platform in the palace and sat down cross-legged with some distance between them.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
...
Within seconds, the six people from Water, Fire and Earth Peaks had also gone up to the high platform one after another and sat down in a cross-legged pose.
Hu Fei narrowed his eyes as his chilly gaze swept across that purple figure in the distance. He finally closed his eyes while he held a piece of Fire Concept Fragment in his hand. He cleared his mind and started comprehending immediately.
Tan Huan from Water Peak and Tian Zhen from Earth Peak also shut their eyes one after another as they began to comprehend their Concepts with the help of the Concept Fragments.
The three other young disciples from the other three Peaks also closed their eyes one by one.
"Daniu, let's go," Duan Ling Tian ignored Hu Fei's icy glare completely as he called out to Huang Daniu before flying towards the high platform in front together.
However, an inconspicuous smile was playing at the corner of his mouth. The smile contained hints of conspiracy in it.
Soon, Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu also sat apart in a cross-legged pose.
Within seconds, Huang Daniu entered the comprehension state while he held a piece of Earth Concept Fragment. He turned a deaf ear to everything around him.
Duan Ling Tian also shut his eyes and began to comprehend.
However, there were two Concept Fragments in his hands at the same time. They were the Wind and Thunder Concept Fragments.
It was a good thing that Guo Chong, the Sect Leader of the Five Element Sect, and the other four Peak Masters did not notice this at all. Otherwise, they would be startled by it as well.
In Cloud Continent, they had never heard of anyone who could rely on two different Concept Fragments to comprehend two different Concepts at the same time.
15 minutes had gone by without a sound.
In the eyes of the Peak Masters of the Five Peaks in Five Element Sect, the ten young people on the high platform had already entered the comprehending state. However, they did not notice that in actual fact, there was one person who did not enter that state at all.
That person was none other than Duan Ling Tian!
'It's going to be activated soon!' Duan Ling Tian took a deep breath. He was a little excited.
He was waiting, waiting for the moment the Sect Leader of Five Element Sect would finally activate the Profound Assimilation Formation.
Only then would he be able to integrate his Spiritual Energy smoothly into the Profound Assimilation and do the things that he wanted to do.
If he passed up this opportunity, he would not be able to tamper with the Profound Assimilation Formation anymore with his current Spiritual Energy.
