War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 2280 Identity Exposed

When Duan Ling Tian entered closed-door cultivation, many people from Wandering Saint Palace who had wanted to meet him failed to do so. Apart from many elders from the Wandering Saint Palace, there were also several other Vice Palace Masters who had wanted to meet him as well, including Huang Qi Ling's father.

Although Huang Qi Ling's father was a Vice Palace Master, he was only slightly stronger than the elders from the Wandering Saint Palace. Out of all the Vice Palace Masters of Wandering Saint Palace, he was the weakest in strength. For this reason, the three disciples who were related to the elders from Wandering Saint Palace dared to bully Huang Qi Ling back then.

"Brother Ling Tian has entered closed-door cultivation?" Even Huang Qi Ling had just learned that Duan Ling Tian had entered closed-door cultivation.

And so, the newly appointed Vice Palace Master Duan Ling Tian from the Wandering Saint Palace was hidden away from the world. With the passage of time, he gradually ceased to become the topic of conversation in the Human-Devil Saint City and the Human-Devil clan's territory. After all, it was only natural that things would fade as time passed.

Time flew, and in just a blink of an eye, a year had passed.

At this time, the inhabitants of the Human-Devil Saint City and Human-Devil clan's territory had forgotten about Duan Ling Tian. The hottest topic in town now was news of the Formation Masters from the Devil Clans repairing the Inter- province Transportation Formation!

"Did you hear? The Inter-province Transportation Formation's repair is at its last stage… In one or two years, at most three, we'll be able to invade the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land!" One Human-Devil exclaimed excitedly in a restaurant in the Human-Devil Saint City.

"Of course I've heard about such important news!"

Another Human-Devil said with a grin, "I heard that the Human-Devil clan's Three Palaces and Six Halls have also sent out men to search for the materials needed to repair the Inter-province Transportation Formation."

More and more Human-Devils began to join in the conversation.

"It's not only the Human-Devil clan, but other Devil Clans are scouring the Lower Province to search for materials as well. Moreover, some of them have even returned to the Land of Exile to search for materials."

"Currently, the Devils are united in repairing the Inter-province Transportation Formation that will allow us to travel to the Upper Province… I hope we'll be able to stay as united when we're invading the Upper Province."

"You're right! After all, most of the powerful humans dwell in the Upper Province. We might not be able to defeat them if we don't stay united!"

"I heard that the cultivation environment in the Upper Province is extremely good and rich with resources…"

"Of course! Otherwise, why would all the strong powerhouses flock there? Would you go and cultivate in a sh*thole?"

"I'm getting excited the more I hear about this. I hope the Inter-province Transportation Formation will be repaired soon."

A group of Human-Devils in the restaurant was engaged in a heated conversation. Based on the conversation, it was clear to see they were all looking forward to going to the Upper Province where the cultivation environment was good and resources were abundant.

In the Boar-Devil clan's territory…

The three Patriarchs of the Boar-Devil clan who were also the respective chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe, Thunder Boar Tribe, and Red Boar Tribe gathered again.

"The Red Boar Tribe has sent over what we've collected recently… What about you?" The chief of the Red Boar Tribe asked as he looked at the other two.

"We're the same." The chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe and the Thunder Boar Tribe nodded.

Naturally, they were talking about the materials needed to repair the Inter-province Transportation Formation.

"Based on the progress, it won't be long before the Inter-province Transportation Formation is completely repaired. At that time, our Boar-Devil clan will gain a new territory!" The chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe said excitedly with shining eyes.

The chief of the Red Boar Tribe said with a laugh, "This time our territory will be in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. It's said that the cultivation environment there is really good and resources are abundant as well… This is something to look forward to."

"It's unfortunate those three are not around to witness the Boar-Devil clan invading the Upper Province with the rest of the Devil Clans… They really looked forward to invading the Upper Province and killing the human powerhouses when they were still alive!" The Black Boar Tribe's chief sighed.

The chiefs of the Thunder Boar Tribe and Red Boar Tribe remained silent when they heard this. Mixed feelings could be seen in their eyes.

The chief of the Black Boar Tribe was clearly talking about the Boar-Devil clan's three Great Guardian Warriors who were killed a year ago! Although a year had passed since the deaths of the three Great Guardian Warriors, the Patriarchs did not forget about it. This was due to the three Great Guardian Warriors' special backgrounds.

"It has been a year but the Old Patriarch hasn't said anything. I think he must be preparing for the Heavenly Tribulation while he's in closed-door cultivation!" The chief of the Red Boar Tribe said.

"I think so as well." The chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe nodded. "The old patriarch must not have noticed that their Soul Pearls have shattered… Otherwise, he would definitely come to the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land."

"They're his favorite grandchildren… If he knew that they had died, he would definitely come even if it's at the cost of missing the Heavenly Tribulation!" The chief of the Black Boar Tribe murmured.

At once, the atmosphere turned solemn.

Based on the three Patriarchs' conversation, it was obvious the Old Patriarch was still alive and well, and he was still in the Land of Exile. Moreover, he was very close to ascending as well.

After a few moments, the chief of the Red Boar Tribe seemed to have recalled something. A slightly old scroll appeared in his hands as he said, "There's one more thing!"

"Hm?" The chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe and the Thunder Boar Tribe looked over and asked, "What's that?"

At this moment, the chief of the Red Boar Tribe revealed the content of the scroll. A realistic portrait appeared for their eyes.

In just a blink of an eye, the expressions of the chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe and the Thunder Boar Tribe changed drastically. Their eyes were widened in fear as well. They had lost their composure because they recognized the man in the portrait!

"It's him!"

"Where did you get the portrait from?"

The chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe and the Thunder Boar Tribe spoke in unison. They quickly exchanged a look before they turned to look at the chief of the Red Boar Tribe.

The person in the portrait was none other than the purple-clad young man whom they saw killing their Boar Devil clan's three Great Guardian Warriors a year ago through the mirror image! They knew the purple-clad young man was human when they saw him using the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet, to kill their Boar-Devil clan's three Great Guardian Warriors.

Initially, they had planned to reveal what they had discovered to the public. However, after a lengthy discussion, they unanimously agreed to temporarily keep the matter a secret. They were afraid that they would anger the human powerhouse if they revealed the matter. No one knew the human who possessed the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet, was in the Upper Province! It was not difficult for them to conclude that the Boar-Devil clan was the first clan the human had targeted. If they spread word about this, it would not be difficult for the human to trace it back to the Boar-Devil clan. At that time, who knew if the human powerhouse would vent his anger on the Boar-Devil clan? The three Patriarchs were not certain they would be able to stop the human powerhouse after all.

Time passed, and the Patriarch still did not hear any news about the human powerhouse from the other Devil Clans. They were relieved the human powerhouse did not return to the Boar-Devil clan so they continued to keep this matter a secret.

The Patriarchs would leave others to take the risk. It was only natural for them to look out for themselves after all.

"I obtained this portrait from one of the Red Boar Tribe's clansmen… According to him, he obtained this from a human whom he killed. He found it in the human's Spatial Ring," the chief of the Red Boar Tribe said when he saw the chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe and the Thunder Boar Tribe looking at him.

"Do you know who he is?" The chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe asked in a low voice.

Although the chief of the Black Boar Tribe remained silent, it was clear he was also curious as to who the human was.

They knew the chief of the Red Boar Tribe did not draw the portrait based on how old the scroll looked.

The chief of the Red Boar Tribe nodded solemnly. A hint of wariness could be seen in his eyes as he said, "I do. He's the Young Mansion Master of the Azure Cloud Mansion. His name is Duan Ling Tian! He's rumored to be the one who found the Devilseal Tablet! It was in his possession until someone from the Upper Province came along and snatched it from him!"

When the chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe and the Thunder Boar Tribe heard this, their eyes widened again. They cried out in unison, "It's him?!" Shock and disbelief were apparent on their faces.

Naturally, the Patriarchs were no stranger to the name Duan Ling Tian. After all, he used to own the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet. It was completely out of their expectations that the man who killed the Boar-Devil clan's three Great Guardian Warriors a year ago with the Devilseal Tablet was the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion!
