War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

When Duan Ling Tian arrived at the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect's estate, he sent a message to Su Li. After leaving the sect, he had never seen Su Li since then. It did not take long before Su Li came to the entrance to meet him.

"Su Li."

Su Li's eyes lit up as soon as he saw Duan Ling Tian. He asked, "Duan Ling Tian, the two leaders of Gan Jiang Progeny and the Mo Xie Progeny said you went to the Boundless Heaven's Heavenly Pool Palace due to some personal matters. They even told me not to look for you. Have you resolved it?"

"Yes, everything has been resolved." Duan Ling Tian nodded. Then, he brought Little Gold out of his Little World. "Su Li, look at who else is here…"

Su Li watched as a golden-clad beautiful woman with a curvaceous figure appeared.

Little Gold said with a grin, "Su Li, it's been a long time since we last met."

Su Li stared at Little Gold in confusion as he asked, "D-do I know you?"

"This is heart-breaking. Young Master Su Li has forgotten me…" Little Gold shook her head and sighed deliberately.

Su Li grew even more confused. "W-who are you? I don't remember you at all. It's impossible for me to forget the people I know…"

Although Su Li was certain he had never met this beautiful woman before, there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity about her.

Duan Ling Tian laughed and said, "Little Gold, stop teasing Su Li."

"Little Gold?! It's you?!" A delicate little girl who was always dressed in golden robes appeared in his mind immediately. That little girl had grown into a woman. No wonder he felt she was familiar.

"Su Li, Brother Ling Tian told me about you! You've done well for yourself. I didn't think you'd ascend to a Devata Realms and achieve such feats…" Little Gold said with a smile.

Su Li sighed emotionally. "I didn't expect to meet another old friend from the mundane realm in this Devata Realm…" Following that, he turned to Duan Ling Tian and asked, "Duan Ling Tian, now that you've returned, you'll be staying here for good, right?"

When Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er left the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect, the leaders of the Gan Jiang Progeny and the Mo Xie Progeny had told Su Li that Duan Ling Tian was only leaving the sect temporarily to deal with some matters and would return in the future.

Duan Ling Tian shook his head. "I only came to meet you and the two Progeny Leaders. I might return to the Thousands Tribulations Sword Sect in the future, but I won't be able to stay for long. I currently belong to the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven."

"The Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven?" Su Li was taken back. Then, his eyes lit up as he said, "I remember you said you inherited a legacy in the mundane realm that was left by Senior Feng Qing Yang, the predecessor of the Fog Rain Progeny and the former Sect Leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect. He's now the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven as well. He has decided to accept you as his direct disciple?"

Duan Ling Tian had told Su Li about this when they first reunited.

Duan Ling Tian nodded.

Su Li continued to ask, "Has Senior Feng Qing Yang formally accepted you as his direct disciple?"

"No, he hasn't." Duan Ling Tian shook his head. "Senior Feng Qing Yang hasn't returned to the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. I'll need to wait for his return before officially becoming his direct disciple."

Feng Qing Yang was the only master Duan Ling Tian acknowledged.

Su Li said with a smile, "Then I'll congratulate you in advance. Come! I'll bring you to the two Progeny Leaders…"

Subsequently, Su Li led Duan Ling Tian and Elder Huo into the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect's estate. The sword peaks on the floating islands appeared once again before Duan Ling Tian.

As for Little Gold, she had returned to Duan Ling Tian's Little World to cultivate. After all, the cultivation environment in his Little World was superior to those in Devata Realms. Even the Divine Crystal could not compare to his Little World.

The Divine Tree of Life located in the heart of Duan Ling Tian's Little World emitted a pure light. At this time, the two Ning Dragons were crouched beneath the tree as though they were asleep. The light from the tree reflected off their scales, making them look like stars in the night sky.

If one looked closely, one would be able to see five energies with different colors revolving around the tree as well. They were the Five Divine Elements: the seventh-form Profound Divine Metal, Clear Heavens Divine Wood, World Cleansing Divine Water, Chaos Divine Earth, and the eighth-form Chaos Divine Flame. The red energy was the most vivid among the five energies. This was because the Chaos Divine Flame was in its eighth form after all.

Apart from that, four figures could be seen sitting cross-legged near the Divine Tree of Life. They were none other than Duan Si Ling, Feng Tian Wu, Little Gold, and Huan'er.

After Duan Ling Tian became a Celestial Emperor, his Little World had undergone a transformation again. A circular barren land had appeared outside the perimeters of the green and lush land in the Little World. Signs of life were beginning to appear in the barren land. It would not take long before it flourished with greeneries, flowers, and birds.

…

Before meeting Zhuge Yun and Zhuge Feng, Duan Ling Tian had brought Huan'er out of his Little World.

"Progeny Leader."

"Senior."

The siblings did not seem to change since the last time he saw them.

"Did everything go well?" Zhuge Yun asked with a smile.

Duan Ling Tian nodded. "We successfully rescued Huan'er's parents…" Then, he began to recount what happened. He told them about everything except for the Five Divine Elements.

"You should've told us about this; we would've helped you. Although we might not be as strong as the Grand Elder of the dragon clan even if we joined forces, we're not afraid of the Palace Master of the Heavenly Pool Palace…" Zhuge Yun said.

With this, Duan Ling Tian realized the siblings' combined strength must be on par with the Palace Master of the Heavenly Pool Palace, or at the very least, their strength was on par with Meng Chuan, the Jade Bow Celestial Emperor.

Zhuge Yun sighed. "How unexpected. In the end, you joined the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven… In fact, you're destined to become the direct disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. I didn't expect me and my brother to lose our disciples as soon as we accepted them…"

"Senior, if you need my help in the future, please don't hesitate to look for me. As long as it's within my capabilities, I'll definitely help you," Duan Ling Tian solemnly said. He felt apologetic toward Zhuge Feng and Zhuge Yun. After all, they were prominent figures in the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect who mostly kept to themselves. However, for Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er, not only did they accept them as disciples, but they even helped them search for information regarding Huan'er's parents in the Boundless Heaven's Heavenly Pool Palace. Alas, he and Huan'er were not destined to stay in the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect.

"Young man, don't worry. I was just joking," Zhuge Yun laughed heartily and said teasingly, "We can be considered lucky to have met you. After all, you're the direct disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. We'll be able to brag about you in the future…"

After spending half a day in the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect, Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er bade farewell to Zhuge Feng and Zhuge Yun.

Nobody responded to Duan Ling Tian's messages. Perhaps, none of his family and friends were in the Jade Emperor Heaven or maybe they were in closed-door cultivation. He sent another message informing everyone that he was based in the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven in case they were in closed-door cultivation so they would know where to look for him.

After bidding farewell to Su Li, Elder Huo asked, "Where are we going next?"

Duan Ling Tian's eyes glinted as he said, "Let's go to the Spirit Overarching Heaven."

The Spirit Overarching Heaven was the original Devata Realm that Duan Ling Tian had ascended to from the mundane realm. He had spent the most time in the Spirit Overarching Heaven.

After arriving in the Spirit Overarching Heaven, Duan Ling Tian made his way to the territory of the Profound Nether Mansion in the Southern Heaven Territory.

Similar to when he was in the Jade Emperor Heaven, Duan Ling Tian sent messages out through the Soul Pearls in his possession.

'I should visit the Pavilion Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion in the Profound Nether Mansion while I wait to see if there's any response,' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.

Nothing seemed to have changed in the Profound Nether Mansion. The Pavilion Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion was naturally delighted to see Duan Ling Tian again. He was shocked when he found out about Duan Ling Tian's current strength. Although he knew Duan Ling Tian was highly talented, he did not expect Duan Ling Tian to surpass him so quickly.

After bidding farewell to the Pavilion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion's Imperial Tutor Pavilion, Duan Ling Tian hesitated for a moment before he decided to head to the Boundless Heaven. Before he left, he said, "Elder Huo, I have conflicts with the Heavenly Pool Palace. I'm afraid the Heavenly Emperor of the Boundless Heaven might see me as an enemy. Should we ask Senior Meng Luo to accompany us there?"

Needless to say, Duan Ling Tian would feel more at ease if Meng Luo, the Heavenly Savage Celestial Emperor, accompanied him to the Boundless Heaven. Apart from searching for his family and friends, he wanted to go to the Heavenly Pool Palace to apologize to his teacher, Xu Lang, and his senior brothers and sisters.
