War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens
Chapter 2338 - The Fog Rain Successor
"Impossible?" Yang Zhen Xing smiled bitterly when he heard Yang Xiong Jun's words. He was not surprised by Yang Xiong Jun's disbelief. If he was in Yang Xiong Jun's shoes, he would find this hard to believe as well. It was absurd to think that someone who had just become an Eminent Celestial possessed strength comparable to a Five or Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestial…
"Senior granduncle, when my master was killed by Duan Ling Tian, many Human-Devils from the Three Palaces and Six Halls were around… If you don't believe it, you can ask around!" Yang Zhen Xing took a deep breath. He looked at Yang Xiong Jun earnestly as he said, "In fact, even I find this matter hard to accept… Even his assist-type Divine Ability doesn't seem like it belongs to the mundane realm. It seems like it's from the Devata Realm. Isn't this defying nature's order?" He shook his head.
Naturally, Yang Zhen Xing was unaware that Duan Ling Tian's strength did not only come from his assist-type Divine Ability, but it also came from the Supreme Sword Dao Mental Cultivation Method's Sovereign Heart Sword! When Duan Ling Tian cast the assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, without using any other techniques, his strength was comparable to an ordinary Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. If he used the third stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword, the Sword Wielding Art, his strength was comparable to a Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. If he used the fourth stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword and cast the Body Sword Fusion, his strength was comparable to a Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!
"Are your words… true?" Although Yang Xiong Jun did not think Yang Zhen Xing was lying, he was skeptical that a new Eminent Celestial possessed strength comparable to a Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestial! However, he had no choice but to believe Yang Zhen Xing when Yang Zhen Xing swore on the lightning penalty oath. After a while, he said, "I'm afraid his assist-type Divine Ability is extraordinary even in the Devata Realm!"
"It's extraordinary even in the Devata Realm?" Yang Zhen Xing was dumbfounded. However, he thought it was possible since it would explain why Duan Ling Tian became incomprehensibly strong.
"How can he, a human brat, be so fortunate to have chanced upon such an extraordinary assist-type Divine Ability…"
Yang Xiong Jun and Yang Zhen Xing were jealous of Duan Ling Tian's assist-type Divine Ability. Naturally, they did not know it was called the Elementary Devouring Tactic.
"Senior granduncle, since you've confirmed the veracity of my words. Can you please take me to our forefather?" Yang Zhen Xing looked at Yang Xiong Jun with a grim expression on his face as he said, "After all, this concerns the survival of the Human-Devil clan. I'm afraid if we waste too much time, Duan Ling Tian will harm the clan!"
"Come with me!" Yang Xiong Jun's expression turned tense when he heard Yang Zhen Xing's words. He beckoned Yang Zhen Xing to follow him as he moved away.
Yang Zhen Xing followed closely behind until they arrived at the altar. He discovered a combination of Hidden Formations behind the altar. Beneath the Formation was a world on its own. A stone staircase led the way underground where it was as bright as day.
"The Bodiless Celestials from our Human-Devil clan usually cultivate here… Try not to make any noise in case you disturb them when we go down there." Yang Xiong Jun transmitted his voice to Yang Zhen Xing as they descended the stairs.
"Hmm." Yang Zhen Xing nodded. At the same time, curiosity began to rise in his heart. After a while, he could not help but ask, "Senior granduncle, I wonder… how many Bodiless Celestial powerhouses we have in our Human-Devil Clan?"
"There's a rule in the Human-Devil clan that forbids me from telling anyone about the number of the Bodiless Celestials in the clan. Have you not thought of the reason why your master has never mentioned me being alive and being a Bodiless Celestial?" Yang Xiong Jun replied through Voice Transmission.
When Yang Zhen Xing heard that it was prohibited to learn about the number of Bodiless Celestials in the Human-Devil clan, he no longer asked any questions.
After they reached the last step, Yang Zhen Xing discovered there was a huge crypt hidden under the altar that was located millions of miles away from the Human-Devil clan's northern estate in the Land of Exile. This is where their Bodiless Celestials lived in seclusion. They cultivated here silently as they waited for the arrival of their Bodiless Celestial Tribulations that would come every 1,000 years.
Yang Xiong Jun led Yang Zhen Xing to the door of a huge mansion in the crypt. After that, he called out respectfully, "Forefather!"
Yang Zhen Xing followed suit and greeted the forefather of the Human-Devil clan humbly. "Forefather!" It was not difficult for Yang Zhen Xing to figure out this was where the forefather usually cultivated. He thought to himself, "I'm certain our forefather must be a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial at least… I wonder if he's already become an Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?"
Although there was only one level of difference between a Seven and Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, Yang Zhen Xing knew the difference in power between the two was extremely wide. He was aware that Bodiless Celestials became much stronger with each passing level. It was especially true once they became a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, the gap in strength between each level was immeasurably wide.
After Yang Xiong Jun and Yang Zhen Xing had spoken, they did not receive any response at all. In the beginning, both of them had waited patiently. However, after some time had passed, they looked at each other…
"Little Xiong Jun? Did you come for the forefather?" A voice rang out in the distance. At the end of the sentence, the voice sounded close to them as though the person had spoken right next to their ears.
Swoosh!
A vaguely human figure appeared before Yang Xiong Jun and Yang Zhen Xing before it gradually turned into a thin young man. He was so thin that it seemed as though the wind was capable of blowing him away.
"Did this man just call senior granduncle Little Xiong Jun?" Yang Zhen Xing felt a jolt of fear when he heard the way this young man addressed his senior granduncle. He did not dare to look down on this young man just because of his appearance.
"Junior Granduncle!"
The way Yang Xiong Jun addressed the young man shocked Yang Zhen Xing even more. He felt as though his heart was going to stop beating. This meant the young man was four generations older than him!
"Who's this?" The young man asked as he sized Yang Zhen Xing up.
Yang Zhen Xing felt extremely naked and vulnerable before the young man's gaze. It was as though he could hide no secrets from this young man.
Yang Zhen Xing's body trembled when he thought about the young man's seniority. He bowed to greet the young man but realized he had no idea how he should address the young man at all. "I'm Yang Zhen Xing. It's an honor to meet you, s-senior… senior…" The young man was the junior granduncle of his senior granduncle after all. What should he address him as?
"Junior Granduncle, this is Liao Nai Jiang's direct disciple. Liao Nai Jiang is my junior nephew. This person here is the current Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan," Yang Xiong Jun responded in a timely manner.
"Oh, so you're Yang Zhen Xing, the Patriarch of our Human-Devil clan. I've heard about you." The young man nodded. When he saw the panicked expression on Yang Zhen Xing's face, he said lightly, "My surname is Xia. You can just call me Senior Xia."
Yang Zhen Xing sighed in relief inwardly as he greeted the young man respectfully. "I'm Yang Zhen Xing. It's an honor to meet you, Senior Xia."
"Junior granduncle is one of the two Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestials in our Human-Devil clan." Yang Xiong Jun quickly transmitted his voice to Yang Zhen Xing at this moment.
Sixth Tribulation Bodiless Celestial? Yang Zhen Xing was stunned when he heard this.
The young man looked at Yang Zhen Xing, a slight frown could be seen on his face. It was obvious he was displeased. "Why is he here?"
This was a place for Bodiless Celestials from the Human-Devil clan to cultivate silently after all. Generally, apart from Bodiless Celestials from the clan, nobody was allowed to enter this place. Even the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan was no exception to this rule.
The position of the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan might be highly regarded by most in the Human-Devil clan. However, he was negligible in the eyes of the Bodiless Celestials from the clan.
When Yang Xiong Jun saw the displeased expression on his junior granduncle's face, he did not dare to hesitate and quickly explained the matter. "Junior Granduncle, it's because…" He explained everything that had happened before he finally looked at Yang Zhen Xing and said, "He even swore on the lightning penalty oath to prove the veracity of his words."
…
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian was, naturally, unaware that the Bodiless Celestials in the Human-Devil clan had been alerted by his actions in the Wandering Saint Palace. At this moment, he was thoroughly dumbfounded by what he had just heard.
"The successor of the First Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect? In the old days, Senior Feng Qing Yang was the successor of the First Absolute, the Fog Rain Progeny, from the Seven Absolutes Sect?"
Duan Ling Tian knew he was also the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny when he had inherited the Supreme Sword Dao Mental Cultivation Method's Sovereign Heart Sword from Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang…
