War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 3005: Call Me Feng Qing Yang

"Jia Chao, is there a possibility that those whom I killed earlier possessed King Grade Celestial Weapons nurtured by Celestial Lords before they entered the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm?" Duan Ling Tian thought about the other Celestial Weapons he had obtained from killing other participants after he witnessed the difference in strength between a King Grade Celestial Weapon that had been nurtured by a Celestial Lord and an ordinary King Grade Celestial Weapon.

"Sure, that's possible," Huang Jia Chao nodded as he replied, "In the past, some of the forces were rewarded by the Three Sects and Two Clans with King Grade Celestial Weapons that had been nurtured by Celestial Lords when the Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials who represented them ranked at the top. Although King Grade Celestial Weapons nurtured by Celestial Lords are rare and hard to obtain for most people, they're not as difficult to obtain for grade-seven forces like the Three Sects and Two Clans that had a close relationship with the Profound Nether Mansion."

Huang Jia Chao continued to say, "Although most of the Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials who entered the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm this time around are from grade-eight forces, there are some grade-eight forces who possess King Grade Celestial Weapons that had been nurtured by Celestial Lords. In fact, even the Imperial family of the Supporting Fall Nation possesses a King Grade Celestial Weapon that had been nurtured by a Celestial Lord."

Huang Jia Chao paused for a moment before he added, "From what I know, His Majesty has given Fourth Prince Hu Jin Yong a King Grade Celestial Weapon that had been nurtured by a Celestial Lord this time around…"

"I see." Duan Ling Tian nodded. Huang Jia Chao's words had dispelled some notions he had. Initially, he had thought if the participants he had killed did not possess King Grade Celestial Weapons that had been nurtured by Celestial Lords before entering the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, it would not matter even people knew he possessed King Grade Celestial Weapons that had been nurtured by Celestial Lords since the forces supporting those he had killed would not be able to trace their deaths back to him. However, after listening to Huang Jia Chao's explanation, he knew he could not afford to expose the Celestial Weapons he had obtained.

'It seems like I must keep those King Grade Celestial Weapons a secret unless I know for sure the weapons were only obtained after those people entered the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Alas, there's no way for me to find out since all those people are dead.' Although Duan Ling Tian felt that it was a pity, he did not dwell on the matter.

Duan Ling Tian put the giant sword away before he left the Sword Tomb with Huang Jia Chao. As soon as they exited the Sword Tomb and the Formation, he felt a disturbance behind him. He instinctively turned back to look. "It… collapsed?" He was shocked to see the Sword Tomb had collapsed. Even the sword-shaped statue by the side of the dilapidated gate had been reduced to rubble. At the same time, the Formation that had kept the water at bay had disappeared as well, causing water to rush into the Sword Tomb and drowning it.

"Once the treasure from a place of relics and fortuitous encounters has been obtained, the place would self-destruct," Huang Jia Chao explained without any prompt when he saw the surprised expression on Duan Ling Tian's face. Although this was also his first time entering the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm and a place of relics and fortuitous encounters, he had heard of many stories. As the saying went, 'One doesn't have to see it to hear about it'.

"I see." Duan Ling Tian nodded. Then, he and Huang Jia Chao exited the lake.

After exiting the lake, they continued to follow the guiding force to the Celestial Lord Temple.

…

Just the mention of the seven deadliest places in the Devata Realms was enough to strike terror into the hearts of those who heard it. Rumor had it that even Heavenly Emperors would have a difficult time surviving in those places. Even the least deadly place among the seven places was so terrifying that Heavenly Emperors did not dare to simply enter that place.

Asura Hell was one of the seven deadliest places in the Devata Realms. In terms of deadliness, it was ranked fourth among the seven deadliest places. There was no distinction between day and night in the Asura Hell; it was constantly shrouded by endless darkness. In a way, Asura Hell could be considered an independent realm. Although it was much smaller than Devata Realms, it was as big as a Realm of Gods.

The sky in Asura Hell was red like blood. In fact, even the ground was red, and a blood-red mist hung in the air all year round. It seemed as though the entire place had been dyed red with blood. The stench of blood permeated the entire place as well.

At the entrance to Asura Hell…

"Die!" A voice cried out. Soon after, a middle-aged man with a blood-stained face and robes could be seen shooting up into the sky. At this moment, he was locked in battle with a humongous python that was charging at him from afar.

The giant python's scales were blood-red. Its body was hundreds of meters long. Its sharp fangs glinted menacingly when it opened its mouth. It was a terrifying sight to behold. It moved at lightning speed as it sped toward the middle-aged man with its mouth open as though it intended to devour the middle-aged man.

In just a blink of an eye, the man and the python were about to collide.

The middle-aged man dodged at the moment he was about to collide with the giant python, successfully avoiding its mouth. Then, he brought the giant ax in his hand down at the center of the giant python's head, cleaving it into two.

Boom!

In its death throes, the giant python swung its tail powerfully and it hit the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was instantly sent flying back and vomited a mouthful of blood before he crashed on the ground. Although he was injured, a crooked smile could be seen on his face. His eyes narrowed as he looked at the corpse of the hundreds-of-meter-long giant python on the ground and muttered to himself, "It's finally dead…"

Suddenly…

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The middle-aged man heard movements in the distance and instinctively turned to look. He saw a huge figure approaching from afar. As the figure drew closer, his heart shook when he saw an eagle with red blade-like wings. He watched as the eagle swooped down and caught the corpse of the giant python with its talons. "I-is that a Nether Blood Eagle? Was the injured Red Blood Python I killed its prey?"

The giant python the man had just killed was a Red Blood Python. When he encountered the Red Blood Python, it was already injured and dying. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to kill the Red Blood Python that was as strong as a Nine Palaces Celestial Emperor. After all, despite the extraordinary laws he had comprehended, he was just a Seven Stars Celestial Emperor. Moreover, since the Red Blood Python was as strong as a Nine Palaces Celestial Emperor, the law it comprehended, naturally, would not be simple.

All of a sudden, the Nether Blood Eagle sped up, disappearing out of sight and leaving only a streak of red in its wake.

'Look at its speed! It's definitely as strong as a Nine Palaces Celestial Emperor as well!' A bitter smile appeared on the middle-aged man's face immediately. He closed his eyes in defeat as he felt the killing intent in the air. He was well aware that even if he was at his peak, he still would not be a match for the Nether Blood Eagle, let alone the fact that he was now injured. There was truly nothing he could do except wait for his death at this moment. To his surprise, after a few moments had passed, he did not die. In fact, even the killing intent he had sensed earlier had disappeared.

The middle-aged man's eyes opened when an indifferent voice suddenly rang in the air. "You're just tempting death if you continue to linger at the entrance of the Asura Hell. Hurry up and leave!"

Boom!

The middle-aged man heard a loud explosion as soon as he opened his eyes. He saw the ferocious Nether Blood Eager crashing onto the ground not too far away. Upon closer inspection, he discovered something had pierced the space between the eyes of the Nether Blood Eagle. Apart from that, he discovered the Nether Blood Eagle's body was riddled with many fresh wounds of varying sizes. It was as though it had been pierced by 10,000 arrows! His heart felt as though it had stopped beating when he finally sensed the faint aura of a formidable profundity of a law. "T-the… the l-law of destruction?!"

Soon after, the middle-aged man saw a figure standing on a sword flying away. In just an instant, the figure had turned into a black speck in the distance. He quickly cried out, "Thank you for saving me, senior! May I know your name? If I have the opportunity, I'd surely repay this great favor in the future!"

With his cultivation base, the middle-aged man's eyesight was still good despite being injured. He could see that the black speck in the distance was the back of a young man. However, he dared not underestimate the other party just because the other party had the appearance of a young man. After all, someone who was capable of killing a Nether Blood Eagle in just a blink of an eye had to be a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor. Moreover, the other party was very likely a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor who had comprehended an extremely powerful law.

"If you really want to repay this favor, go to a mundane realm called the Saint Province Realm and look for a young man called Duan Ling Tian. Bring him to the Heavenly Emperor's Palace in the Solitary Destructive Heaven." The figure on the sword turned around to look at the middle-aged man, revealing a handsome young man with a cold and solemn expression on his face. Before he flew off on his sword and vanished before the middle-aged man's eyes, he said, "Also, you can call me Feng Qing Yang."

"F-Feng Qing Yang?!" Upon hearing those words, the middle-aged man's eyes widened in fear, and his expression changed drastically. "Isn't… Isn't that the name of the old Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven? Didn't he die in the Asura Hell after being forced to enter the Asura Hell to escape pursuit?"

Although the middle-aged man was not from the Solitary Destructive Heaven, he had heard about the terrifying Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven and how talented he was. He speculated inwardly, 'Is he going to return to the Solitary Destructive Heaven and seize the Heavenly Emperor's Palace?"
