However, the moment before the saber ray landed on its target, Duan Ling Tian suddenly vanished into thin air.

Hong Ji was so shocked when he saw Duan Ling Tian vanishing into thin air that he forgot to withdraw his attack. "What kind of technique is that?"

"There he is!" Tong Qi Shan exclaimed.

Hong Ji turned back to look and saw a purple figure standing about 100 meters away.

The duo from the Leaving Mansion Willow did not see Duan Ling Tian moving at all. When did he get behind them? It was as though he vanished and reappeared again in another spot.

"How did he end up there? Did you catch his movements?" Hong Ji asked Tong Qi Shan after he gulped.

"No, I didn't." Tong Qi Shan shook his head before he lowered his voice and said, "If I'm not mistaken, he had used the law of space's Teleportation Profundity earlier. The Teleportation doesn't consume one's Celestial Origin Energy and allows one to teleport to anywhere within a 100-meter radius at the rudimentary stage. The higher one's cultivation base is, the shorter the cooldown period between each use would be. Although the profundity doesn't use one's Celestial Origin Energy, its cooldown period relies on the level of one's Celestial Origin Energy." Based on his words, it was clear he had a certain level of understanding of the law of space's Teleportation Profundity.

"Teleportation Profundity?" Realization dawned on Hong Ji after he heard Tong Qi Shan's explanation. "No wonder we couldn't catch his movements. He really did vanish into thin air. However, isn't the Teleportation Profundity the hardest profundity to comprehend in the law of space? He's not even 100 years old, but he managed to comprehend the Teleportation Profundity?" After sending the Voice Transmission to Tong Qi Shan. he looked at the purple figure in shock again.

"He's really lucky! He must have comprehended the Teleportation Profundity as soon as he comprehended the law of space's Space Elemental Profundity. If his cultivation base is similar to ours, we can only dream about catching him. However, he's not even 100 years old so his cultivation base has to be lower than ours. As long as his Celestial Origin Energy is weaker than ours, we'll still be able to catch him even if he casts the Teleportation Profundity," Tong Qi Shan said confidently. His eyes flashed nearing the end of his sentence.

Hong Ji nodded. Then, he looked at the purple figure and said, "Lad, you're not even 100 years old and have comprehended the law of space's Teleportation Profundity. You really surprised us. However, if you think you're capable of escaping from us, you're too naive."

"Escape?" Duan Ling Tian was slightly startled when he heard Hong Ji's words. A faint smile appeared on his face as he said, "When did I say I want to escape? Since both of you have no intention of killing me, I'll go easy on both of you. Don't hold back when you attack." Toward the end of his words, his smile grew wider.

"Go easy on both of us?" Duan Ling Tian's words angered Hong Ji and Tong Qi Shan. Not only was this outer court disciple from the Profound Nether Mansion unappreciative of their good intentions, but he even said he was going to go easy on them? Was he daydreaming?

Hong Ji took a deep breath to suppress the anger boiling in his body. He looked at Duan Ling Tian and coldly said, "Lad, it seems like if I don't teach you a lesson, you'll never learn that there will always be people stronger than you in this world. Let me show you the difference between an outer court disciple from the Profound Nether Mansion and an inner disciple from the Leaving Willow Mansion!" As soon as he finished speaking, golden light burst forth from his body, and he was bathed entirely in the dazzling golden light. Golden lightning bolts could be seen flashing around his body, giving him a formidable aura.

"The Metal Style Profundity?" Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes. He knew the profundity that Hong Ji had cast.

The Metal Style Profundity would shroud its user with the Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted with the Metal Elemental Profundity. With that, the user's strength, speed, and attack would be enhanced even if one did not use Celestial Origin Energy to attack.

"Lad, today I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of your elders. A weakling like you shouldn't be arrogant!" Hong Ji's body seemed to flicker and transform into a streak of golden light that shot out like a shooting star falling across the sky.

Whoosh!

"The Piercing Profundity." The streak of golden light shot out effortlessly with almost no resistance from the air. The resistance was only minute at best. This was because Hong Ji had cast the law of metal's Piercing Profundity. As its name suggested, it could pierce through air and reduce its resistance to almost zero.

'Hong Ji has cast five profundities from the law of metal so far… Before I used the Teleportation Profundity, he had attacked using the Metal Elemental Profundity, the Slashing Inches Profundity, and the Slicing Profundity. And now he's using the Metal Style Profundity and the Piercing Profundity.' With Duan Ling Tian's current strength, it was not difficult for him to figure out the type of profundities Hong Ji had cast. Based on Hong Ji's attacks and strength, he safely concluded that Hong Ji had only comprehended five profundities from the law of metal so far.

'No wonder they're working today… He has only comprehended five profundities from the law of metal.' Duan Ling Tian shook his head before he cast the Teleportation Profundity again to dodge Hong Ji's attack.

"This…" Tong Qi Shan's expression changed drastically as he observed the battle from afar. "H-he's also a Ten Directions Celestial Duke!"

Duan Ling Tian had used the Teleportation Profundity two times now. Moreover, the interval between each use was incredibly short. For this reason, Tong Qi Shan was certain that Duan Ling Tian was a Ten Directions Celestial Duke. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Duan Ling Tian to use the Teleportation Profundity consecutively!

"A Ten Directions Celestial Duke who's not even 100 years old?" Chills ran up Tong Qi Shan's spine when he thought about Duan Ling Tian's age. Moreover, he knew there was no mistake about Duan Ling Tian's age. After all, not even Celestial Emperors or the Divine Elements could hide a person's age.

"Territory Profundity!" Duan Ling Tian suddenly appeared behind Hong Ji. At the same time, energy surged out of his body and shrouded the area within 100 meters of Duan Ling Tian at lightning speed. Then, the raging energy swept toward Hong Ji, leaving many dents on his armor.

"Restraining Profundity! Distortion Profundity!" Before Hong Ji could react, Duan Ling Tian cast another two profundities from the law of space.

The air around Hong Ji seemed to freeze at this moment, leaving him powerless. Then, energy generated from the distortion of space swept toward him, shattering his metal armor. Although he was shocked by Duan Ling Tian's techniques, he did not lose focus. Under such circumstances, he knew he could not afford to be distracted.

"Break!" Hong Ji cried out. Golden light surged out from his body again, transforming into saber rays. He clearly intended to break out from his restraint using the saber rays' penetrative force.

"Trying to break free of my Restraining Profundity?" Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes. If he did not do anything, it was likely that Hong Ji would be able to free himself from the Restraining Profundity. At the critical moment, he quickly waved his right hand in the air.

In just a blink of an eye, the void in a corner of the area where Duan Ling Tian had cast Restraining Profundity suddenly tore.

Swoosh!

In just an instant, a grey sword ray shot out in the direction of Hong Ji's golden saber rays.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The golden saber ray collided with the grey sword ray. However, the grey sword ray was quickly overwhelmed by the number of golden saber rays. Nevertheless, after a moment, another grey sword ray shot out from another crack in the void.

At the same time, the first crack in the void suddenly lengthened before it merged with the second crack in the void. With that, the crack grew bigger. In just a short moment, a gaping hole could be seen in the void as a pulling force began to pull the golden saber rays into the hole. With this, it did not take long before all the golden saber rays vanished after being pulled into the hole.

"T-territory Profundity? Restraining Profundity? Distortion Profundity? Cross-Dimensional Slash Profundity?" Tong Qi Shan was stunned.
