Chapter 2905: Li Ping Attacks

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

All the high-ranking officials of the Blissful Sect heard Duan Ling Tian's statement, causing them to feel chills running up their spines. At this moment, many of them were overwhelmed with fear. Since Duan Ling Tian dared to make such a bold claim at this moment, it was likely that he was confident about being able to kill them. There might be a possibility he was just putting on a front to intimidate them, but they were becoming increasingly uneasy and unsure about what is true or not.

"You don't mind killing one more person?" Li Ping, the Old Ancestor of the Blissful Sect, said scornfully, "Duan Ling Tian, I'm only compromising out of respect for your clan. Don't mistake it for me being afraid of you!" His words were dripping with disdain.

Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes imperceptibly as he calmly asked, "Is that so?"

"No matter what, I won't stand by idly and watch while you kill all of them. You'll have to pass through me if you want to kill them!" Li Ping said in a deep voice.

As soon as Li Ping finished speaking, a dense and vast aura surged out of his body, causing the high-ranking officials of the Blissful Sect to shudder. The aura placed a heavy pressure on them, making it difficult for them to breathe. Only Liu Xuan Kong, the Sect Leader of the Blissful Sect, fared better than the others. Even then, his expression was grim. It was clear he felt the pressure as well.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Currently, Li Ping had released all his Celestial Origin Energy without holding back. Wave after wave of his terrifying Celestial Origin Energy rolled out into the Blissful Sect's estate. At this moment, every other member of the sect in the estate could clearly feel it.

Many disciples discussed among themselves as they made their way to the source of the energy. Naturally, they did not dare to come near; they only dared to watch from afar.

"Such a powerful aura!"

"Does it belong to Old Ancestor Li Ping?"

"So this is the aura of a Celestial King?"

It did not take long for the disciples of the Blissful Sect to discover the corpses strewn on the ground. It belonged to the disciples who had come earlier to watch the show. The new group of disciples began to speculate among themselves again.

"Is that…"

"What happened? Why are so many disciples dead?"

"Isn't that Senior Huang Bin? He was a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial… How did he die?"

"There are no visible wounds on any of them. However, they seemed to have bled through their eyes, noses, and ears."

"No visible injuries… It doesn't seem like they're killed by a Soul Attack. It's likely they're killed by a soundwave of Celestial Origin Energy!"

"Heavens! Just the Celestial Origin Energy is enough to kill our senior brothers? How powerful is the culprit exactly?"

"The culprit's cultivation base should at least be on par with Lord Sect Leader."

Soon enough, the disciples' attention shifted to the high-ranking officials of the Blissful Sect.

"It's Lord Sect Leader!"

"The elders are here as well."

"Is that… Is that Old Ancestor Li Ping?"

"I think so… However, don't you think Old Ancestor Li Ping seems extremely wary of that purple-clad young man?"

"Look! Isn't that person standing next to the purple-clad young man our Arhat?"

"Didn't you hear? Earlier, Arhat announced his intention to sever all ties with our sect. Do you think he plans to join the purple-clad young people's sect instead?"

"Well, the purple-clad young man must be remarkable if our Old Ancestor is wary of him…"

"Our senior brothers are most likely killed by the purple-clad young man."

At this moment, the eyes of the disciples of the Blissful Sect were trained on Duan Ling Tian. Anxiety and fear could be seen churning in the depths of their eyes. After all, the dead disciples on the ground were far stronger than them. How could they not be afraid of the purple-clad young man releasing a wave of his Celestial Origin Energy to kill them?

"Lord Sect Leader and the elders have been here for a while now. The Old Ancestor has just arrived not too long ago. Don't tell me the others didn't fight with the purple-clad young man at all before the Old Ancestor came?"

"Since Lord Sect Leader and the elders didn't make a move even after the purple-clad young man killed so many disciples of our sect, it's quite clear the purple-clad young man is extremely powerful. Let alone Lord Sect Leader, even the Old Ancestor seems wary of him."

"Who's he? Is he really a Ten Directions Celestial Duke?"

"I have never heard of there being such a young Ten Directions Celestial Duke in the Six Southeastern Regions."

"Who is he?"

"Well, it doesn't matter who he is. Now that our Old Ancestor is here, he'll be greatly injured if not dead!"

"That's only natural since Old Ancestor Li Ping is now a Celestial King!"

All of the disciples from the Blissful Sect speculated among themselves and came to the conclusion that Duan Ling Tian must be very strong. Otherwise, the high-ranking officials of the Blissful Sect would have taken action immediately after seeing so many disciples being killed. Nevertheless, their confidence in Li Ping was unwavering even if they could discern Duan Ling Tian was stronger than Liu Xuan Kong. It was only natural since they knew Li Ping had broken through and become a Celestial King. In the Six Southeastern Regions and the entire borderlands, Celestial Kings were invincible.

"It seems like you're determined to stop me…" Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes as he looked at Li Ping's raging Celestial Origin Energy that looked terrifyingly fierce. His eyes flashed coldly for a brief moment.

The cold light in Duan Ling Tian's eyes did not escape Li Ping's notice. Fear gradually grew in his heart as a thought appeared unbidden in his mind. He found it difficult to dismiss the thought. 'He… Could he be stronger than a Ten Directions Celestial Duke? Is he a Celestial King as well?'

Duan Ling Tian said, "Since you're determined to stop me, you'll have to die along with the rest of them!" A terrifying aura surged out of Duan Ling Tian's body as soon as he finished speaking. His aura was clearly stronger and more terrifying compared to Li Ping's.

At this moment, Li Ping's expression changed drastically, and his face turned deadly pale.

Similarly, the expressions of the high-ranking officials of the Blissful Sect changed drastically as well when they sensed Duan Ling Tian's aura. Their eyes flashed with a mixture of panic, desperation, and fear. After all, they could acutely feel the difference between Duan Ling Tian's Celestial Origin Energy and Li Ping's Celestial Origin Energy. The gap was so wide; the difference was like between heaven and earth!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Before the people from the Blissful Sect could react, a purple energy wave rolled from Duan Ling Tian's body toward Li Ping.

Whoosh!

Li Ping had already prepared himself for Duan Ling Tian's attack. Therefore, he reacted immediately as soon as Duan Ling Tian attacked, casting his defensive technique. An almost solid-looking golden Buddha's silhouette shrouded him immediately and protected him. Apart from that, a huge translucent bell could be seen near him as well.

"The Immobilization King Method!"

"The Mythical Bell guard!"

The high-ranking officials of the Blissful Sect could, naturally, tell Li Ping had cast the sect's triple-trait Duke Grade Celestial Method, the Immobilization King Method, and the sect's double-trait Duke Grade Divine Ability, the Mythical Bell Guard! Defense-wise, both were first-rate. Seeing this, they grew hopeful, thinking, perhaps, Li Ping would be able to defend against Duan Ling Tian. It seemed like they had forgotten just how terrifying Duan Ling Tian's Celestial Origin Energy was.

Meanwhile, Ji Fan, the former Arhat of the Blissful Sect, had quickly taken out his Floating Image Pearl as soon as Duan Ling Tian made a move. However, he discovered Duan Ling Tian's speed was too fast. 'He's too fast! I can't even record his movements!

Ji Fan continued thinking to himself, 'Fortunately, it seems like the Old Ancestor has no intention of fleeing. At the very least, I'll still be able to record the moment when Master Duan's attack lands on the Old Ancestor's defenses. I wonder if Master Duan will be able to breach the Old Ancestor's defenses. Since the Old Ancestor cast two defensive techniques, I think it'd be difficult even for a Two Forms Celestial King, who hasn't mastered any offensive Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Ability, to breach the Old Ancestor's defenses.'

Ji Fan was unharmed by Li Ping's Celestial Origin Energy since he was somewhat protected, standing behind Duan Ling Tian. It was also for this reason he did not realize the huge gap between Duan Ling Tian and Ji Fan's Celestial Origin Energies!
