2473 Old Ancestor Qing Yue, a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!

As soon as everyone's eyes shifted to the muscular man who had just appeared, they heard a few voices rang in the air.

"Old ancestor!"

"Old ancestor!"

The onlookers instantly shifted their eyes to the people who had just reverently greeted the muscular middle-aged man. They discovered those people who had spoken were all old with the exception of a young man. It was strange to see those few old men bowing deferentially to the muscular middle-aged man as though they were worshipping Buddha.

It did not take long before a few Bodiless Celestials from Skyline Realm recognized the few old men. "Aren't they from the Power Saint Sect in our Skyline Realm?"

"Indeed! They're from the Power Saint Sect!"

"I know that green-robe old man… He's a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial and the Second Elder of Power Saint Sect!"

"I've met that blue-robe old man once… He's also a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, and he's the Third Elder of Power Saint Sect!"

From the discussion between the Bodiless Celestials from Skyline realm, everyone learned the background of those few people and that two of these people were Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestials who held high positions in their sect.

The Second Elder swept his gaze around before he announced loudly, "This is Old Ancestor Qing Yue from our Power Saint Sect!"

Old Ancestor Qing Yue!

As soon as the Second Elder from Power Saint Sect spoke, almost everyone turned to look at the muscular middle-aged man with a hint of shock. As it turned out, the middle-aged man was someone so powerful.

On the other hand, the group of Bodiless Celestials from Skyline Realm had a horrified expression on their faces.

"Old Ancestor Qing Yue! H-he's Old Ancestor Qing Yue from Power Saint Sect?" A Bodiless Celestial from the Skyline Realm exclaimed with disbelief. He looked at the muscular middle-aged man fearfully as though the muscular middle-aged man was a ghost.

"I thought he's a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from the Power Saint Sect at most. Who knew he's Old Ancestor Qing Yue, the only Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial in Power Saint Sect?"

"Although I've heard about the only Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial in Power Saint Sect, I haven't seen him before. It's truly unexpected that I'd get to meet him here."

"It seems like he has set his sight on Duan Ling Tian. I'm afraid he came bearing ill intentions."

The Bodiless Celestials from Skyline Realm noticed that Old Ancestor Qing Yue had been staring at Duan Ling Tian intently ever since he had appeared. It was as though Duan Ling Tian had some special treasure on him.

More and more people began to notice this, and they could not help but speculate among themselves.

"It seems like he wants something from Duan Ling Tian based on the greed in his eyes."

"Well, it's likely that he wants something from Duan Ling Tian… and his companions."

"The most precious things Duan Ling Tian and his teammates possess are the Celestial Supreme Treasures… According to a reliable source, I heard they currently have more than five Celestial Supreme Treasures between them!"

"More than five Celestial Supreme Treasures! Such great wealth!"

"Unfortunately, I'm far from being a match for Duan Ling Tian. Otherwise, I'm sure I'll greedily covet Duan Ling Tian and his companions' Celestial Supreme Treasures as well."

If the onlookers could guess the muscular middle-aged man's intention, Duan Ling Tian, naturally, could guess it as well.

"A Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!" The expressions of Feng Tian Wu, Han Xue Nai, and others changed drastically. After all, it was not easy to deal with a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial.

The only ones who seemed calm among Duan Ling Tian and his companions were Duan Ling Tian and his wife, Ke'er.

At this moment, Ke'er seemed to be in a daze as she looked at Duan Ling Tian. It seemed as though he was the only one she could see in this world. The muscular middle-aged man's appearance did not interrupt her staring fest at all.

At this moment, the muscular middle-aged man, Old Ancestor Qing Yue, suddenly called out, "Duan Ling Tian!" Then, he looked at Duan Ling Tian greedily as he said in a low voice, "Although you didn't obtain the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial like Feng Qing Yang did, your strength is comparable to him at that time. It's unfortunate. As the the saying goes, 'The precious stone lands its innocent possessor in jail'. You and your companions will die today and all your Celestials Supreme Treasures are destined to be mine." He did not beat around the bush and honestly declared his intention of killing Duan Ling Tian and his companions to snatch their Celestial Supreme Treasures.

"Oh?" Duan Ling Tian replied flippantly, "I'm afraid that just you alone are not qualified to kill us and snatch our Celestial Supreme Treasures." He knew his strength well. He might not be able to defeat or kill a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, but he was confident their strength would be on par. For this reason, he was not afraid when he found the muscular middle-aged man was a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!

Duan Ling Tian's nonchalance surprised many people.

"Based on Duan Ling Tian's words, it seems like he's not afraid of Old Ancestor Qing Yue!"

"As a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, Old Ancestor Qing Yue certainly has a Celestial Supreme Treasure. Duan Ling Tian must know this as well, and yet, he's still able to remain so calm. He's either putting up an act or he's truly unafraid of Old Ancestor Qing Yue."

"A Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial with a Celestial Supreme Treasure has to be the strongest existence in mundane realms, right?"

"That should be the case…"

Naturally, the opinion was split in half. Some of them thought Duan Ling Tian was just putting on an act, and some of them thought he was truly unafraid.

"When Duan Ling Tian killed that man from Mouro Realm earlier, his strength and speed are comparable to a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial…"

"You're right. So what if Old Ancestor Qing Yue possesses a Celestial Supreme Treasure? If Duan Ling Tian casts that Sword Formation, he'll be able to snatch Old Ancestor Qing Yue's Celestial Supreme Treasure away!"

"I think the battle between Old Ancestor Qing Yue and Duan Ling Tian can only end in a tie… I think it's impossible for them to defeat each other."

"I agree!"

There were people who had deeply studied and analyzed Duan Ling Tian's strength who thought Duan Ling Tian was not any weaker than Old Ancestor Qing Yue. Therefore, they were full of confidence in Duan Ling Tian. There were also some who remained neutral, afraid of voicing out who they thought was stronger or weaker.

Many of the onlookers assumed Old Ancestor Qing Yue would be enraged by Duan Ling Tian's words and attacked him immediately. However, they were surprised by the words they heard.

Old Ancestor Qing Yue said, "Indeed. I've witnessed your strength earlier. It's certainly not any weaker than mine. Moreover, I haven't found a way to counter the technique you used to snatch Celestial Supreme Treasures away. If we were to fight, we would be evenly matched."

"Huh?" Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow in surprise. He did not expect to hear Old Ancestor Qing Yue admitting that they were on equal ground. He had thought Old Ancestor Qing Yue dared to openly announce his intention of killing him and his companions to snatch their Celestial Supreme Treasures was due to Old Ancestor Qing Yue's blind confidence.

The onlookers were puzzled.

"What's going on? Since Old Ancestor Qing Yue himself confesses that their fight would end in a tie, why did he sound so confident when he said he would kill Duan Ling Tian and his companions to snatch their Celestial Supreme Treasures?"

Suddenly, someone blurted out, "An accomplice?"

Suddenly, a sharp and piercing sound rang in the air.

Swoosh!

After a while, a figure descended from the sky, attracting everyone's attention, including Duan Ling Tian.
