War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Linghu Ren Jie left a good impression on Duan Ling Tian immediately.

'The Linghu clan was a lord-rank force on par with the Hidden Fog Sect and the 10,000 Devils Sect, and yet Linghu Ren Jie, the Clan Leader of the Linghu clan, was friendly and did not put on airs. This was a rather trait among those who held high positions.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian knew that Linghu Ren Jie's friendliness had a lot to do with Linghu Yun as well. Linghu Yun must have already told Linghu Ren Jie about him possibly joining the Linghu clan and clan's faction in the Flying Dragon Sect.

'There were different factions in the Flying Dragon Sect since its members were made up of people from different forces. It was only natural that those who came from the same force would band together to rise in the Flying Dragon Sect. Competition would occur wherever there were humans.

If Duan Ling Tian joined the Linghu clan's faction in the Flying Dragon Sect, it would definitely benefit the Linghu clan. A person like Duan Ling Tian would be well-received in forces like the Linghu clan and the Hidden Fog Sect. If Duan Ling Tian revealed his talent by defeating Long Xiao after returning

to the Hidden Fog Sect, there was no doubt the sect would highly value him. Most members of the sect would not be able to harm him at that time. It was a pity that he had enmity with Long Xiao and Shangguan Xiong Feng, and their masters were two of the four Supreme Elders of the Hidden Fog Sect.

Most importantly, the supreme elders were the few in the Hidden Fog Sect who could easily harm him. If he wanted to stay in the Hidden Fog Sect without compromising his principles, as Wu Feng had said, the only way for him to survive was to become the nominal disciple of one of the two supreme

elders whom he did not offend. If possible, for Murong Sui Feng's sake, he did not want to betray the Hidden Fog Sect. However, there was no guarantee that either one of the supreme elders would agree to accept him as their nominal disciple. Faced with this choice, he naturally would not hesitate to

leave the Hidden Fog Sect now that he found another way out.

"Te heard a lot about you as well, Clan Leader Linghu," Duan Ling Tian said after taking a seat.

Linghu Ren Jie said with a smile, "Duan Ling Tian, I don't like beating around the bush so I'll be blunt with you. Yun'er had spoken to me earlier. If you're able to prove to me that you're indeed capable of defeating someone as strong as Long Xiao, the Linghu clan will send someone to protect you and

follow you back to the Hidden Fog Sect. What do you think?"

"Alright." Duan Ling Tian nodded. He had expected this. After all, it was normal that he would have to prove himself first.

At this moment, a tall and muscular young man dressed in a green robe walked into the main hall. He had prominent eyebrows and a pair of piercing eyes. He called out, "Father."

The eyes of Linghu Yun, who was sitting next to Duan Ling Tian, brightened immediately when he saw the young man. He called out, "Third brother!"

"Fourth brother," the young man said as he smiled at Linghu Yun.

With this, Duan Ling Tian naturally could tell that the newcomer was Linghu Ren Jie's third son, Linghu Jun.

Linghu Jun had the highest innate talent and comprehension skills among his brothers. He was under 10,000 years old and an intermediate King of Gods. He was stronger than most inner elders in the Linghu clan. Despite being an intermediate King of Gods, he was the strongest core disciple in the

Linghu clan. Even the core disciples of the clan who were advanced Kings of Gods were no match for him. He had once defeated Shangguan Xiong Feng when they were both rudimentary Kings of Gods in a little more than 100 moves. Moreover, he was about 2,000 years younger than Shangguan Xiong

Feng. Many people believed that he could now defeat Shangguan Xiong Feng in fewer than 100 moves.

"Duan Ling Tian, this is my good-for-nothing third son, Linghu Jun." Linghu Ren Jie smiled as he introduced Linghu Jun to Duan Ling Tian.

The corners of Duan Ling Tian's mouth twitched slightly upon hearing Linghu Ren Jie's words. He shook his head and said, "Clan Leader Linghu, I've long heard about the Third Young Master's achievements. How's he a good-for-nothing? In my opinion, most, if not all, of the core disciples of the Hidden

Fog Sect aren't even a match for him."

Duan Ling Tian knew that even the strongest core disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect could barely defeat Shangguan Xiong Feng who was one of the three strongest disciples in the Hidden Fog Sect. This meant that Linghu Jun, who could defeat Shangguan Xiong Feng, was stronger than all of the core

disciples in the Hidden Fog Sect.

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian's words, Linghu Ren Jie could not help but smile. He was proud of his son, after all. He said with a smile, "It seems like you've really heard about my son. Well, you said that you're capable of defeating Long Xiao, right? All you need to do to prove your words is to withstand 30

moves from my son. What do you think?"

"Okay." Duan Ling Tian nodded. He had yet to test his strength after his recent breakthrough so he was very agreeable to Linghu Ren Jie's suggestion.

"Alright, let's enter my Little World," Linghu Renjie said.

Duan Ling Tian, Linghu Jun, and Linghu Yun entered Linghu Ren Jie's Little World so Duan Ling Tian and Linghu Jun could spar.

Linghu Renjie's Little World was as vast as the ocean.

The trio hovered in the sky above a barren land when Linghu Yun was suddenly pulled away by a gentle and invisible energy to the distant sky.

Linghu Jun faced Duan Ling Tian and maintained a distance from Duan Ling Tian at the same time. He said solemnly, "Duan Ling Tian, your reputation precedes you. I heard you're the first advanced god to become a core disciple in the Hidden Fog Sect in 10,000 years after Xue Hai Chuan. I heard the

people of the sect call you the second Xue Hai Chuan."

"The second Xue Hai Chuan? I don't intend to live in someone else's shadow," Duan Ling Tian said as he shook his head.

"How confident." Linghu Jun wore a rare smile on his face. He said confidently, "My father said that you've become a rudimentary King of Gods and that you're confident about defeating Long Xiao. I've not fought Long Xiao, but I'm confident I can defeat him within 10 moves. In order to defeat him, you'd

have to withstand at least 30 moves from me."

"Alright. Please start," Duan Ling Tian said with a faint smile on his face.

Green energy surged from Linghu Jun's body and shrouded him immediately as he narrowed his eyes. Soon after, the energy raged violently like a tornado as wind blades shot out. Based on this, it was clear that he had comprehended the law of wind.

Although Duan Ling Tian had already become a rudimentary King of Gods, he still felt pressure when faced with Linghu Jun.

'Linghu Jun must have at least comprehended a few triple Fused Profundities from the law of wind. However, I'm not sure if he has comprehended a quadruple Fused Profundity. I can't underestimate his bloodline power as well. After all, he's capable of defeating Shangguan Xiong Feng.'

The fact that Linghu Jun could defeat Shangguan Xiong Feng who was 2,000 years older than him was a testament to how terrifying his innate talent and comprehension skills were.

Needless to say, despite the pressure, Duan Ling Tian was not frightened at all.

At this time, spatial energy raged like a storm around Duan Ling Tian. At the same time, he cast the Cross-Dimensional Profundity.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Nine spatial tears appeared before terrifying sword rays shot out.

At the same time, Linghu Yun, who was watching from afar, asked his father in a hushed voice, "Father, do you think Duan Ling Tian is capable of withstanding 30 moves from third brother?"

Since they were in Linghu Renjie's Little World, although he was not by Linghu Yun's side, he could hear Linghu Yun very well. He replied, "As long as he wasn't lying, it won't be a problem. However, although this is my first time meeting him, based on his confidence, I'm certain he's telling the truth."

At this time, Linghu Jun shot out. Since he comprehended the law of wind, his speed and offenses were very high.

Wind blades that seemed able to cut everything down shot toward Duan Ling Tian.

Upon seeing this, Duan Ling Tian mobilized his spatial energy to form a protective barrier. As soon as the wind blades breached his barrier, he teleported away.
