War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens - Chapter 3378
Chapter 3378: First Stop: The Jade Emperor Heaven
In the past, before Feng Tian Wu, Duan Si Ling, and the others were sent out of the Divine Offering Land by Xia Jie, he exchanged Soul Pearls with them in case there was a need for them to meet in the future. To prevent the Soul Pearls from losing its effects too quickly, Xia Jie had given them high-grade Soul Pearls from the Divine Offering Land that would preserve their energies for at least 1,000 years. This was because Xia Jie knew when he sent them away, they might be sent to different mundane realms. He had given them the Soul Pearls to help them reunite once they ascended to the Devata Realms since it was impossible for them to reunite in the mundane realms unless they were transported to the same place. There were too many mundane realms, and not only were there no Communication Celestial Talismans in the mundane realms, but even if there were, it would be impossible for them to communicate using the talismans unless they were in the same mundane realm.
Unlike the mundane realms, they should be able to communicate with each other even if they were not in the same Devata Realms. However, Xia Jie did not give them any Communication Celestial Talismans before he sent them away because he was in a hurry. Moreover, even if he had remembered to give them the talismans, it would not have been enough since he only carried a few on him.
During their way back to the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, Feng Tian Wu said solemnly, “Brother Duan, I had most of our people’s Soul Pearls when I arrived at a mundane realm with Si Ling… I had the Soul Pearls of all the members from the Seven Absolutes Sect. However, apart from Senior Mu Yi Yi, everyone’s Soul Pearls had shattered…”
Mu Yi Yi was the successor of the Seven Absolutes Sect’s Prophet Progeny and a heaven-defying Dao cultivator. She was among the people whom Yun Qing Yan had abducted to the Divine Offering Land. However, Mu Yi Yi’s whereabouts, similar to the others, was unknown after Xia Jie sent them away.
Among all the successors of the Seven Absolutes Sect, everyone, except for Duan Ling Tian, Feng Tian Wu, and Mu Yi Yi, had perished.
“They’re dead?” Duan Ling Tian’s expression changed drastically upon hearing Feng Tian Wu’s words. Killing intent shone in his eyes as he clenched his hands tightly. “Yun Qing Yan… I won’t forgive myself if I don’t kill you. I’ll hunt you down when the passage leading to the Divine Offering Land from the Devata Realms opens.”
His anger did not abate. Instead, his flames of fury rose higher, causing killing intent to surge out of his body. It was so intense that it put a pressure on those around him.

After a moment, Duan Ling Tian asked, “What about the others?”
“I have the Soul Pearls of Sister Fei’er, Nian Tian, Uncle Ru Feng, Aunt Li Rou, Xue Nai, and my father. If we find my father, we’ll be able to find out about Senior Bai Li Hong and the others,” Feng Tian Wu replied.
Duan Ling Tian heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing these words. He had prayed fervently for Bai Li Hong and the others to be safe. He would not be able to forgive himself if something were to happen to them since they were in this predicament because of him. Because of him, Yun Qing Yan had abducted his family and friends to force Ke’er to return with him.
“We’ll return to the Heavenly Palace first and list out all the Devata Realms… Tian Wu, Si Ling, give me their Soul Pearls; I’ll search for them!” Duan Ling Tian said. He was prepared to wander the Devata Realms to look for his family and friends.
“Since they had absorbed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the Divine Offering Land, their cultivation bases must have risen swiftly. They must have ascended to a Devata Realm by now if they’re alive…” Duan Ling Tian said.
“Brother Duan, I’ll go with you…” Feng Tian Wu said.
Duan Si Ling chimed in as well, “Father, I want to go with you as well!”
Based on Duan Ling Tian’s words, Duan Si Ling and Feng Tian Wu knew Duan Ling Tian intended on leaving them in the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven while he wandered the Devata Realms alone.
“Both of you should stay in the Heavenly Palace and cultivate,” Duan Ling Tian said with a smile. As though he just recalled something, he quickly added, “Forget it. If both of you want to come, then let’s go together. The cultivation environment in my Little World is better than Heavenly Palace anyway…”
Although the cultivation environment in the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven was far better than any of the heaven-grade forces, it was still no match for the cultivation environment in Duan Ling Tian’s Little World that was filled with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy from the remnant of a Realm of Gods.
…
When Duan Ling Tian returned to the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, he wasted no time in looking for Elder Huo.
“Elder Huo, do you know the names of all 81 Devata Realms?”
Puzzled, Elder Huo shook his head. “No. Why?”
“I want to look for some people…” Duan Ling Tian replied before he briefly explained the situation to Elder Huo.
Elder Huo nodded. “Alright, I understand. Give me two days, and I’ll sort this out for you.”
“Thank you, Elder Huo.” Duan Ling Tian expressed his gratitude before he bade farewell to Elder Huo.
Meanwhile, after Duan Ling Tian returned to the Heavenly Palace, Huan’er did not stick to Duan Ling Tian’s side as she usually did. After all, he would want to spend time with Duan Si Ling and Feng Tian Wu,
Over the next two days, Duan Ling Tian did not cultivate and spent his time with Duan Si Ling and Feng Tian Wu. The duo recounted their experience after leaving the Divine Offering Land. He felt distressed when he heard about their experiences.
After a while, Duan Si Ling looked at Duan Ling Tian knowingly and asked, “Father, it seems like you’re in a relationship with Huan’er. Am I right?”
Feng Tian Wu glanced at Duan Ling Tian tentatively, waiting for his answer.
Duan Ling Tian sighed before he recounted his meeting with Huan’er and how he fell for her. After that, he said with a tender gaze, “Tian Wu, after rescuing Ke’er, I’ll give you a grand wedding…”
Feng Tian Wu replied, “Brother Duan, that’s not important…”
“This is my promise to you. My feelings for you will never change,” Duan Ling Tian said solemnly.
In the past, when they were in the mundane realm, Feng Tian Wu almost died because of him. How could he let her down now? How could he let down a woman who was willing to sacrifice her life for him?
Meanwhile, when Duan Ling Tian mentioned Ke’er, Duan Si Ling’s eyes flashed with worry as she asked, “Father, mother will be fine, right?”
“Of course!” Duan Ling Tian nodded confidently.
…
Even when Duan Ling Tian was in the mundane realm, he had known there were 81 Devata Realms. After receiving a Memory Celestial Talisman that contained all the names of the 81 Devata Realms from Elder Huo, he asked, “Elder Huo, are you coming with me?”
Elder Huo nodded and said with a smile, “I haven’t left the Heavenly Palace for a long time so I’ll come with you. Moreover, Meng Luo will be worried if I don’t accompany you. He might even decide to come along. In his eyes, you’re the Young Master of the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. How could he face the Heavenly Emperor if something happens to you? You have no idea how highly the Heavenly Emperor values you…”
“Does Senior Feng Qing Yang blame me at all?” Duan Ling Tian felt guilty. After all, it was all because of him that Feng Qing Yang was forced to escape into the Asura Hell and was trapped there as a result.
“I’ve actually asked the Heavenly Emperor this question before,” Elder Huo replied with a smile, “Not only does he not blame you, but he even wants to thank you. After all, the Asura Hell is like a fortuitous encounter to him. It would’ve taken him thousands or 10,000 years to gain his current strength if he didn’t go to the Asura Hell…”
Duan Ling Tian felt relieved upon hearing Elder Huo’s reply. However, the guilt in his heart did not ease. Perhaps, he would only be able to let go of his guilt once he personally apologized to Feng Qing Yang.
“Elder Huo, let’s go,” Duan Ling Tian said.
They used the Transportation Formation in the Heavenly Palace and left for their first destination: the Jade Emperor Heaven.
The Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect that Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er joined was located in the Jade Emperor Heaven’s Nan Dou Territory.
After arriving, Duan Ling Tian tried sending messages to Li Fei, Duan Nian Tian, Duan Ru Feng, and the others through their Soul Pearls to see if there would be a response.
While they waited for the response, they traveled to the Nan Dou Territory.
“We’ve left the Heavenly Pool Palace for quite some time now… Senior Zhuge Feng and Senior Zhuge Yun must have been worried when they heard about what happened. Let’s go see them!”
