War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Everything happened in just a blink of an eye!

Nobody expected Li An would make a killing move against Duan Ling Tian.

"Elder Li An!" It did not cross Teng Shan's mind as well that Li An would make such a vicious move. Horror dawned on him as he instantly moved to stop Li An. However, his strength was slightly weaker than Li An, coupled with the fact that Li An made the first move, he only managed to block half of Li An's energy while the other half landed on Duan Ling Tian.

Bang!

Despite the force of the energy being reduced by half, it was still a critical hit to Duan Ling Tian. When it landed on him, he instantly felt a heart-wrenching pain. It was so painful he almost lost consciousness!

"No! I can't pass out… I-I can't pass out!" Duan Ling Tian used all his might to stay conscious. It was only when the pain numbed a little that he managed to overcome it by force.

After he used the Sun True Origin to heal his wound a little, Duan Ling Tian finally relaxed. At the same time, he looked at Teng Shan and said with gratitude, "Thank you, Elder Teng Shan, for saving me!"

"He's still alive?!" Whether it was Li An who had attacked Duan Ling Tian or Teng Shan who had saved him, they were both shocked when they saw Duan Ling Tian had survived.

"How's this possible?!" Li An had an expression of disbelief on his face. He knew clearly how much force he had used.

His strike earlier, despite its force being reduced to half, was enough to kill any human Martial, Dao, and Devil Cultivators below the Saint Celestial Stage. However, the purple-clad young man before him did not die!

He was filled with disbelief and so was Teng Shan.

Although he managed to block half of Li An's strike, the remaining half of the force was enough to kill a human Martial, Dao, and Devil Cultivator below the Saint Celestial Stage.

"Don't tell me he's not human?" Li An and Teng Shan immediately extended their Divine Consciousness and probed Duan Ling Tian's entire body, making sure he was human. It was impossible for a human below the Saint Celestial Stage to withstand the strike earlier and survive! However, after they finished probing, it was clear that Duan Ling Tian was human.

"He's indeed human, but why's his body so strong?"

Both of them also noticed how abnormally strong Duan Ling Tian's body was. It was to the point that it was comparable to the body of an ordinary Divine Saint Stage wild beast or the true form of a Divine Saint Stage Saint Body!

In their opinion, this was something unbelievable.

However, the truth was laid bare in front of their eyes. They could not refute the truth.

They could only conclude that Duan Ling Tian had a fortuitous encounter. Otherwise, it would be impossible for his body to be so strong!

'If my body was slightly weaker, I would've died from that strike.' Duan Ling Tian knew this very well. He had survived solely because of his tough body.

Earlier, when Li An locked his body in place with his aura, not only could he not move, but it was difficult for him to mobilize the Sun True Origin in his body as well. Under such circumstances, it was impossible for him to transform into a Dragon Warrior!

Although Duan Ling Tian did not die, he suffered quite a heavy injury. At the very least, his injury was heavier than Yang Wu's injury.

"Elder Li An's strike earlier was too vicious. If Elder Teng Shan didn't make a move earlier, this young man would've died!"

"That's right! Judging by his injury, you can see how terrifying Elder Li An's strike was! Although Elder Teng Shan managed to block half of the strike, the remaining force almost killed him as well."

"I guess Elder Li An is on Yang Wu's side after all. It's to be expected. After all, Yang Wu is his best friend's son!"

The crowd regained their senses as the atmosphere began to buzz again.

When they looked at Li An, there was a hint of dread in their eyes. When he had appeared earlier, he acted magnanimous and impartial. However, his action made them realize that not every Silver Flame Elder in the Black Turtle Sanctum was like Teng Shan!

'I almost died earlier! I've no enmity with Li An, but due to the small dispute I had with Li An, he actually wanted to kill me?' Duan Ling Tian raised his head and looked at Li An who was standing in the distance. Rage could be seen burning in his eyes.

Sensing Duan Ling Tian's gaze, Li An merely glanced at him indifferently before he turned away and ignored him.

Although Duan Ling Tian's body was abnormally strong, in Li An's eyes, he was just like an ant that he could easily step on.

If Teng Shan did not intervene earlier, Duan Ling Tian would have died.

"Li An…" When Duan Ling Tian saw Li An ignoring him, the flames of fury rose up in his heart even more. He hated Li An to the core. If he was stronger than Li An, he would have killed him at this instant even if it meant offending the Fire Worship Sect and being pursued by them!

Unfortunately, even if he used the Jasper Celestial Sword and unleashed all his strength, it would be impossible for him to kill Li An now.

For this reason, he could only endure it. He would endure this and seek revenge in the future!

"Junior Brother Ling Tian, are you alright?" At this moment, Gu Li who had regained his senses looked at Duan Ling Tian with a worried expression.

He did not expect Li An to be this shameless. He actually wanted to kill Duan Ling Tian, someone who had yet to enter the Fire Worship Sect.

Zhu Lu Qi also looked at Duan Ling Tian. Although he did not say anything, a hint of concern could be seen in his eyes.

"Elder Li An, even if he's at fault, it's not to the point where he deserves to die, right?" Teng Shan asked coldly as he looked at Li An with a grim expression as everyone looked on.

"Of course, he doesn't deserve to die… Earlier, I had accidentally used too much force. It was not my intention to do so. Moreover, he's alive, right?" Li An replied indifferently faced with Teng Shan's question.

When Teng Shan heard Li An's shameless words, he was rendered speechless.

Teng Shan was not the only one. Everyone present on the scene was speechless as well. It did not cross their minds that Elder Li An could speak so confidently even though it was clear he was telling a blatant lie!

"His accidentally used too much force? I'm still alive?" Duan Ling Tian's expression turned grave again. He did not expect Li An to be this shameless. It was obvious Li An wanted to kill him, and yet, he refused to admit it.

"Since both of you have been punished, this matter can be considered as resolved!" Li An glanced at Duan Ling Tian indifferently before looking at Yang Wu who frowned upon hearing his words.

In the next instant, he transmitted his voice to Yang Wu. When Yang Wu heard his Voice Transmission, his frown disappeared immediately. He quickly looked at Duan Ling Tian with killing intent in his eyes.

"Elder Teng Shan, you don't have any objections, right?" Li An asked as he looked at Teng Shan.

Teng Shan shook his head. Since the matter had already escalated to this stage. What else could he say? Moreover, he had already punished the one who truly deserved it.

"Elder Li An!" When Teng Shan shook his head, Yang Wu looked at Li An before he said solemnly, "Today, I'd like to issue a Death Duel! I hope you'll be the witness to this Death Duel between me and him!"

Death Duel!

Upon hearing Yang Wu's words, everyone instinctively turned to look at Duan Ling Tian before they looked at Yang Wu.

They could see Yang Wu's injury was almost completely healed while Duan Ling Tian was still severely injured to the point where his face was still pale.

"Yang Wu is really shameless!" Many people began to rebuke in a low voice.

At this moment, they all knew who Yang Wu wanted to issue a Death Duel to. He even asked Li An to become his witness. They did not even need to use their brain to figure out his target was Duan Ling Tian who only had half his life left after being injured by Li An.

"Shameless! How shameless!"

"Don't tell me Yang Wu wants to have an unfair fight?"

"Calm down! It's not set in stone! Even if Yang Wu issues a Death Duel, he still needs the consent of his opponent! If his opponent declines, put aside Yang Wu, even Li An could not touch this young man at all!"

The crowd discussed among themselves. They did not think Duan Ling Tian would accept Yang Wu's Death Duel Invitation.

In their opinion, put aside whether Duan Ling Tian was a match for Yang Wu when he was uninjured, unless he wanted to die, it was impossible for Duan Ling Tian who was currently severely injured to accept Yang Wu's Death Duel Invitation.

"You want me to become the witness? Of course, I can!" Li An agreed to it immediately before he asked, "Who do you want to issue the Death Duel to?"

Faced with Li An's question, Yang Wu shifted his eyes to Duan Ling Tian immediately. "You trash! Do you dare to have a Death Duel with me?"

Although everyone present had already expected Yang Wu to issue the Death Duel to Duan Ling Tian, when they saw him issuing the Death Duel and calling him trash, they could not help but inwardly cursed him for being shameless.

There were also people who cursed out loud. "How can there be such a shameless person in this world?" And this included Gu Li.

"Junior Brother Ling Tian, ignore him! That idiot only dare to issue a Death Duel when you're injured!" Gu Li said to Duan Ling Tian. He was worried Duan Ling Tian would accept the Death Duel Invitation.

"Heal your wound properly. You don't have to completely heal your injuries, but heal it a little more. Then it would be easy for you to kill him!" Zhu Lu Qi said.

In the next instant, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes at Yang Wu as he asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "Did you just issue a Death Duel Invitation to me?"
