Bang!

The moment Cheng Yun’s words left his mouth, Zhao Kun made his move as fast as a bolt of lightning and placed his palm on the Death Pact stone tablet and forged the Death Pact.

After he withdrew his hand, he looked at Duan Ling Tian with a hint of provocation and mockery in his eyes.

Naturally, he still felt anxious in his heart. Now that they had reached the critical juncture, all his efforts would have been in vain if Duan Ling Tian suddenly changed his mind.

“Will Ling Tian really sign a Death Pact with Zhao Kun?” The group of Mystical Sky Mansion’s disciples standing at the side, in the distance, studied Duan Ling Tian. At this moment, all of them were filled with anxiety as well.

Bang!

When Duan Ling Tian finally extended his hand and placed his palm on the Death Pact stone tablet, the Mystical Sky Mansion’s disciples who were anxious finally calmed down.

As soon as they calmed down, many of their eyes widened, and some of them even gasped.

“Ling Tian a-actually signed the Death Pact! Isn’t he afraid of death?”

“Although he’s quite strong and can be considered as an elite powerhouse among the group of powerhouses at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage, even a stronger Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage is not a match for an Early Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator!”

“That’s right! If Zhao Kun didn’t break through to the Eminent Saint Stage, he might not be a match for Ling Tian. However, Zhao Kun has just broken through to the Eminent Saint Stage a few days ago! Even Hong Gang who’s previously much stronger than him is not a match for him now. He could barely withstand a blow from Zhao Kun!”

“I really wonder what Ling Tian is thinking! He knows it’s a trap, and yet, he’s still jumping into it!”

“Being rash is a sin! I think Ling Tian will die today!”

…

Outside the Hall of Death, people were discussing among themselves. None of them spoke highly about Duan Ling Tian.

“Junior Brother Ling Tian, it seems like they don’t think very highly of you,” Gu Li transmitted his voice to Duan Ling Tian. It contained a hint of teasing. “What do you think of their words? Don’t you feel frustrated and feel like explaining yourself?”

“There’s no need for that,” Duan Ling Tian shook his head before replying through Voice Transmission, “The truth will shut them up!”

“It seems like you’re very confident!” Gu Li replied as he looked at Duan Ling Tian.

In fact, even Gu Li was not entirely certain if Duan Ling Tian would be able to defeat Zhao Kun who had already broken through to the Eminent Saint Stage.

However, since this was Duan Ling Tian’s choice, coupled with the fact that he had faith in Duan Ling Tian, he did not intend to stop Duan Ling Tian at all from the beginning.

‘Don’t tell me Junior Brother Ling Tian has already broken through to the Eminent Saint Stage as well?’ Gu Li thought to himself as his eyes that were trained on Duan Ling Tian narrowed.

“It has been a long time since the Mystical Sky Mansion has been this busy.” Zhao Deng chuckled. Although his voice was not loud, everyone still heard it clearly. “Today, I hope both of you will be able to demonstrate your strength and show us a fierce battle! Since both of you have already signed the Death Pact, there’s no need for both of you to hold back. Both of you can just fight with all your might!”

One had to admit Zhao Deng was qualified to become one of the Vice Mansion Masters of Mystical Sky Mansion with his eloquence.

The moment his words left his mouth, the group of Mystical Sky Mansion’s disciples present on the scene became enthusiastic immediately. It was as though they were the ones that had signed a Death Pact, not Duan Ling Tian and Zhao Kun.

“Hurmph!” Zhao Ji snorted when he saw how his father did not believe in him as well. He turned around and walked away after that. Naturally, he only left Zhao Deng’s side. He did not leave the Hall of Death. If Duan Ling Tian had to die today, he still wanted to witness it with his own eyes at least!

Cheng Yun, the Heaven Palace’s elder in charge of the Hall of Death said to Duan Ling Tian and Zhao Kun, “The Death Pact is completed. Both of you can pick an arena to carry out the Death Duel.”

“Ling Tian, I’ll give you a chance. Pick a place with good feng shui as your burial place!” Zhao Kun smiled sinisterly as he looked at Duan Ling Tian. Based on his words, it was obvious he thought he had Duan Ling Tian grasped in the palm of his hand.

A few days ago, he had broken through to the Eminent Saint Stage so he was completely unafraid of Duan Ling Tian who had only broken through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage less than a year ago!

Even the most outstanding young genius in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land who had broken through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage less than a year ago might not even be able to make a breakthrough so quickly to the Eminent Saint Stage!

Due to this reason, Zhao Kun did not think there was even the slightest chance that Duan Ling Tian had broken through to the Eminent Saint Stage.

It was not only Zhao Kun, but even Zhao Deng and almost every Mystical Sky Mansion’s disciples present on the scene did not think Duan Ling Tian would be able to break through to the Eminent Saint Stage from the peak of the Refined Saint Stage in just less than a year. This was because it was almost impossible to do so!

Naturally, there were also some people who suspected Duan Ling Tian had broken through to the Eminent Saint Stage as well. These people were Wang Fei Xuan and Gu Li. Wang Fei Xuan, in particular, since she had witnessed Duan Ling Tian displaying the speed comparable to an Early Eminent Saint Stage powerhouse when they were in the Saint Martial Secret Zone half a year ago.

However, when she asked Duan Ling Tian if he had broken through to the Eminent Saint Stage, he told her that he had not.

It was only natural that she did not believe him.

“Give me a chance to pick a burial place with good feng shui?” The moment Duan Ling Tian heard Zhao Kun’s words, he was momentarily stunned before he chuckled loudly. A charming smile replaced the solemn expression on his face immediately as though he had just heard the funniest joke in the world.

“What are you laughing about?” Zhao Kun’s expression turned grave immediately. He felt as though Duan Ling Tian was looking down on him, and he flew into a rage out of embarrassment.at once.

“There’s no need for you to trouble yourself to prepare my burial place. However, it doesn’t seem like this place is suitable to be your burial ground. Otherwise, you might tarnish the sacred ground of the Hall of Death!” Duan Ling Tian’s tone was calm during the first half of his sentence. However, he spoke quickly when he reached the second half of his sentence.

At this time when everyone, including Zhao Kun, thought Duan Ling Tian was being overconfident, Duan Ling Tian began to make his move.

The Sun True Origin instantly surged out from his body. It was extremely dazzling. His entire being was like a rapidly moving sun in the eyes of the group of Mystical Sky Mansion’s disciples watching by the side.

Before the crowd realized what was going on, the bright sun had already shrouded Zhao Kun.

Among the people present on the scene, Zhao Deng was the strongest one. It was only natural he was the first to realize what was going on. He cried out to warn Zhao Kun, “Watch out!”

This was because he noticed Duan Ling Tian whom the Zhao Clan regarded as their mortal enemy had also broken through to the Eminent Saint Stage. Moreover, he was not an ordinary Eminent Saint Stage powerhouse!

‘Even someone at the Intermediate Eminent Saint Stage doesn’t possess speed as fast as his!’ The moment Zhao Deng thought of this, an ominous feeling rose in his heart immediately.

Zhao Kun was most likely not a match for Ling Tian!

Whoosh!

Zhao Deng was still bewildered when Duan Ling Tian appeared in front of Zhao Kun.

Just like Zhao Deng had seen, the speed Duan Ling Tian demonstrated earlier was a lot faster than most Intermediate Eminent Saint Stage powerhouses.

For this reason, Zhao Kun only managed to regain his senses when Duan Ling Tian appeared in front of him.

‘How fast!’ This was Zhao Kun’s first thought when he saw Duan Ling Tian had appeared in front of him. Duan Ling Tian’s speed far surpassed his speed!

At this moment, Zhao Kun did not have time to wonder why Duan Ling Tian’s speed was so fast. He instinctively activated the True Origin in his body, and it surged out through the several dozens of Saint Veins in his body. It was as though he would only feel a sense of security after his True Origin enveloped his body.

Unfortunately, the number of Saint Veins he possessed was just too few compared to the Saint Veins that Duan Ling Tian had in his body.

If he had 99 Saint Veins like Duan Ling Tian, his True Origin might have been able to surge out quickly. However, his True Origin was still in the midst of surging out when Duan Ling Tian’s right hand that contained the Sun True Origin landed on his shoulder like an eagle’s claw. With the sound of a crack, it crushed his shoulder.

Meanwhile, Zhao Kun felt a vast energy sweeping out from Duan Ling Tian’s hand into his body, suppressing True Origin that had yet to completely surged out! When the True Origin in his body was being suppressed, the sharp intense pain Zhao Kun felt made him feel as though he had fallen from Heaven into Hell in just a blink of an eye!

At this instant, he would have lived his entire life in vain if he still could not figure out that Duan Ling Tian was far stronger than him!

“Pleas…” Zhao managed to say through the pain, and he was drenched in sweat. Before he could even finish begging, he was already sent flying out of the Heaven Palace’s Hall of Death by Duan Ling Tian into the sky nearby. Just below the sky, there was a bottomless abyss.

Under the watchful eyes of the others, Duan Ling Tian withdrew the Sun True Origin back into his body, allowing the crowd to see him and Zhao Kun.

“P-please forgive me… S-Senior B-Brother Ling T-Tian…” Zhao Kun coughed. At this moment, Duan Ling Tian whose hand was on Zhao Kun’s shoulder earlier was clamped around his neck.

Zhao Kun continued to struggle, but he could not free himself from Duan Ling Tian’s grasp at all. All he could do was beg with all his might. His face had turned so red, it was as though blood was going to drip out from it.

Not only did Zhao Kun fail to mobilize his True Origin, but every time he tried to activate it, it was instantly suppressed by Duan Ling Tian’s energy that surged into his body.

Duan Ling Tian’s energy charged into his body tyrannically like the pigeon that occupied the sparrow’s nest!

To be able to treat an Early Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator this way, one had to be at the Intermediate Eminent Saint Stage at least!

Only the True Origin of an Intermediate Eminent Saint Stage powerhouse or higher would be able to suppress Zhao Kun’s True Origin!

‘Intermediate Eminent Saint Stage… Ling Tian’s an Intermediate Eminent Saint Stage powerhouse!’ Zhao Kun thought to himself in despair.

He was feeling truly regretful now. If he was given another chance to do everything again, he would not have offended Duan Ling Tian.

Even if he could become the adopted son of the Zhao Clan’s Lord Guardian if he managed to kill Ling Tian, he still would not dare to have any malicious thoughts toward Ling Tian. Ling Tian was not someone he could deal with!

Silence!

It was completely silent outside the Hall of Death.

Apart from the sound of Zhao Kun begging for forgiveness, there was no sound at all in the surrounding.

After some time, the crowd finally regained their senses. They stared at the scene before them in bewilderment with their mouths agape.

Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! Gasp!
