Chapter 2097: Thousand Inscriptions Saint Sword!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Since Duan Ling Tian had decided to impersonate Bu Hong, he had to be meticulous about it. For this reason, he only cast the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, after he confirmed the sectless cultivators were far enough that they could not see his actions. He did not fully cast the Elementary Devouring Tactic. Even then, faint whirlpools could still be seen around him as it absorbed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in his surroundings.

In just a blink of an eye, Duan Ling Tian’s Sun Saint Energy had risen to the level of a powerhouse at the peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage. It did not stop there as it continued to rise.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian began to close the distance between him and Jiao Tu.

“No! Y-you’re n-not Bu Hong!” Jiao Tu cried out. Although the sectles cultivators in the distance could not see the Elementary Devouring Tactic that Duan Ling Tian had cast, Jiao Tu who was closer to him could sense the change in Duan Ling Tian’s Saint Energy.

At the same Jiao Tu spoke, Duan Ling Tian’s Sun Saint Energy had risen to a level comparable to the Saint Origin of a powerhouse at the First Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. At this point, his Sun Saint Energy finally stopped rising.

“You only realized this now? It’s too late though!” Duan Ling Tian said indifferently.

Jiao Tu had an expression of despair on his face as a wave of energy swept toward him as fiercely as a beast on a rampage.

Boom!

As a loud explosion sounded, Jiao Tu was drowned by the energy. It was as though he had been swallowed by a gigantic beast.

When the energy vanished, Jiao Tu vanished along with it. Only a Spatial Ring was left floating in the air.

During that time, before Jiao Tu was killed, Duan Ling Tian had asked for Elder Huo’s help to devour Jiao Tu’s Innate Spiritual Root.

“Yellow Innate Spiritual Root.” Elder Huo’s words disappointed Duan Ling Tian.

Jiao Tu merely possessed a dark yellow Innate Spiritual Root. Therefore, Duan Ling Tian’s Innate Spiritual Root did not turn indigo after he devoured Jiao Tu’s Innate Spiritual Root.

“Your Innate Spiritual Root is very close to turning indigo. It’s enough to turn indigo if you devour another yellow Innate Spiritual Root!” Elder Huo’s subsequent words lessened Duan Ling Tian’s disappointment slightly.

‘It doesn’t matter. It’ll eventually turn into an indigo Innate Spiritual Root. I just need a little more time.’ Duan Ling Tian consoled himself inwardly.

After Duan Ling Tian regained his composure, he collected the Spatial Ring. He only spared the sectless cultivators who had finally caught up an indifferent look before he left without a trace.

For the sectless cultivators, it was, naturally, impossible for them to forget about Duan Ling Tian. There was no doubt they did not know his real identity. They thought he was Bu Hong, the second strongest among the Fire Worship Sect’s Eight Great Prodigies!

“Jiao Tu died just like that?”

Many sectless cultivators were in shock and disbelief. Although they were far away earlier and could not clearly see what the true disciple from Fire Worship Sect had done, they knew he was the only one left on the scene. Jiao Tu had disappeared without a trace.

“That Fire Worship Sect’s true disciple, Bu Hong, is really domineering! Doesn’t he know that this isn’t the Fire Worship Sect but Sin City? Moreover, it’s very likely that Jiao Zhan will seek revenge from him.”

There were also some sectless cultivators who marveled at the bravery of Fire Worship Sect’s true disciple, Bu Hong.

After all, not just anyone would be so brave as to kill the brother of a deputy leader of an alliance in Sin City!

“Since Bu Hong dares to act so boldly in Sin City, he must have some sort of support. I assume his master is in Sin City as well!”

“That’s possible! With his master here, even the Leader of the Black Crow Alliance can’t do anything to Bu Hong.”

“If it was someone else who was killed, I might have felt pity. However, since it’s Jiao Tu, not only do I not feel pity, but I feel glad!”

“I feel the same way. Previously, Jiao Tu killed many people without a reason just because he’s from the Black Crow Alliance and his brother is the Deputy Leader. It’s karma!”

All the sectless cultivators present on the scene did not mourn Jiao Tu’s death. Instead, many of them were glad Bu Hong had killed him. Naturally, they were unaware it was not Bu Hong who had killed him. It was Duan Ling Tian, who had quickly risen in ranks in the Fire Worship Sect, who had disguised himself as Bu Hong and killed Jiao Tu.

Due to Duan Ling Tian’s flawless disguise and his meticulous care to keep up the act, it was destined that he was the only one who knew the truth. Well, apart from Jiao Tu, who was dead.

After killing Jiao Tu, Duan Ling Tian left and found a place to change into his purple robe. At the same time, he changed his face to his previous appearance that he had changed on a whim when he was near Sin City. Although he had changed his appearance, there was still a lot of similarities to the disguise he wore in the Fire Worship Sect. He still had sword-shaped brows, still handsome, charming, and attractive.

“Wang Yi Fo didn’t mention the Black Crow Alliance similar to the Ground Ax Alliance. I guess they’re not very powerful in Sin City.” Since Wang Yi Fo did not mention the Black Crow Alliance, Duan Ling Tian did not think they were a force to be reckoned with.

‘Let’s find a restaurant so I can learn more about Sin City…”

With that thought in mind, Duan Ling Tian flew out to the city center of Sin City. He planned to find a busy restaurant to rest and find out more about the place.

‘I still don’t know why so many sectless cultivators choose to stay in this dangerous place…’ Duan Ling Tian was extremely curious about this.

Back then, the Leader of Clarity City’s Sectless Cultivators Alliance, Wang Yi Fo, had left him in suspense.

While Duan Ling Tian was looking for a restaurant, all was not peaceful in the Black Crow Alliance’s estate.

As one of the alliances in Sin City, the Black Crow Alliance, naturally, had an estate of their own in Sin City even though they were just a mediocre alliance.

Bang!

In the Black Crow Alliance’s estate.

Upon learning about Jiao Tu’s death, Deputy Leader Jiao Zhan was furious. With just a move, he smashed the stone table in front of him.

“Who? Who is it?” Jiao Zhan asked as he looked at the messenger with a terrifying glint in his eyes like a poisonous snake looking at its prey.

Jiao Zhan’s reaction was only natural. He used to have three brothers. Apart from Jiao Tu who was the youngest, he had another older and younger brother. Four of them were sectless cultivators and had fended for themselves in this world. Throughout the years, his elder brother, Jiao Da, and his third brother, Jiao Hong, had died, leaving only him and Jiao Tu behind.

After that, Jiao Zhan and Jiao Tu came to Sin City and built the Black Crow Alliance with someone else. Ever since then, they found a place where they belonged.

Naturally, Jiao Zhan cared about the only brother he had left. However, today, he learned that his only brother, his youngest brother, had been killed!

“I-It’s t-the Fire Worship Sect’s true disciple, Bu Hong!” The messenger quickly replied in a trembling voice as his body shuddered from Jiao Zhan’s rage.

“Bu Hong?” Jiao Zhan’s eyes narrowed immediately when he heard the messenger’s words. He asked in a deep voice, “Are you certain the one who killed my brother is Fire Worship Sect’s Bu Hong?”

Naturally, Jiao Zhan had heard of Bu Hong. In terms of strength, Bu Hong was much stronger him since Bu Hong was at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!

However, that was in the past. About half a month ago, Jiao Zhan had managed to break through to the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. With the various moves he had and the practical combat skills he had mastered as a sectless cultivator, he was not afraid of Bu Hong! In fact, he was confident he could kill Bu Hong! After all, Bu Hong was the weakest among all the powerhouses at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. This could be seen from his ranking on the Supreme Saint Ranking. He did not fear Bu Hong, but he was afraid of Bu Hong’s master, a Golden Flame Elder of the Fire Worship Sect! He was also the Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum!

Apart from the Black Crow Alliance’s estate, things were also not peaceful in the Ground Ax Estate as well.

“That’s him? The one who killed two of my men and took the Spatial Ring that held the Thousand Inscriptions Saint Sword?” The Leader of the Ground Ax Alliance was able to see what had happened after he tore the Major Mirror Image Talisman.

He saw a handsome purple-clad young man in the picture who was shrouded in golden light with 10,000 swords flying about, killing his men from the Ground Ax Alliance. Moreover, he even took the Spatial Rings from the two men.
