2555 Shameless Boasting?“Duan Ling Tian said his wife is no longer in the mundane realm and won’t be able to intervene in the Saint Province Realm’s affairs?”

Many people became deadly pale as Duan Ling Tian’s words dawned on them.

“H-he’s joking, right?”

“You’re right… He must be joking. If it’s true that his wife has left the mundane realm and can’t interfere with the Saint Province Realm’s affairs, logically, he wouldn’t have publicly announced it, right?”

“Yes. After all, he’s not strong enough to defeat the Devil Clans’ Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial and drive the Devil Clans away on his own.”

After the humans discussed among themselves, many of their expressions changed for the better since they were certain Duan Ling Tian was just joking.

However, there was a small minority of humans who did not think Duan Ling Tian was joking. However, they felt he was too naive. After all, there was no need to disclose this to the Devil Clans. In their opinion, he could hide the fact that his wife had left. At least that would be able to keep the Devil Clans in check. They could not understand him at all. Even then, they did not dare to voice out their opinions. After all, Duan Ling Tian had no obligation to protect the humans. He was more than capable of protecting himself even if he could not defeat the Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. Even if the Devil Clans stayed here, it would not affect him since he would be ascending to a Devata Realm soon.

“Joking? Do you really think he’ll joke about this?”

“There’s no reason for him to joke. I think he’s telling the truth. However, won’t this boost the morale of the Devil Clans?”

All of a sudden, the old man made a move. Energy surged out his body, causing the seven Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestials standing behind him to scramble away in fear of getting injured. He unleashed his strength without any reservations. Flames appeared, making it look as though he was burning. It caused the void to tremble and distort before tears began to appear in the void.

Boom!

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian did not stay idle. He cast the assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, and absorbed much of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy around him. It improved his strength by two levels. After that, he glanced at the old man coldly and said, “You’re unworthy of me using my Celestial Supreme Treasure.”

The old man’s expression changed drastically when he heard this. He thought Duan Ling Tian was foolishly arrogant!

The onlookers were stunned by Duan Ling Tian’s words as well.

“Duan Ling Tian is too arrogant! Is he really not planning to use his Celestial Supreme Treasure to deal with Master Wu Ji?”

Someone scoffed. “If he doesn’t use his Celestial Weapon, he’s definitely not a match for Master Wu Ji.”

“Everyone knows he only fought to a draw with the patriarch of the dragon clan because of his Celestial Supreme Treasure. However, he’s going to forgo the Celestial Supreme Treasure now.”

“He’s too arrogant.”

The Devils discussed among themselves. All of them thought Duan Ling Tian was overly arrogant. In fact, the Devils were not the only ones who felt this way, even some humans felt the same way.

“He’s not going to use his Celestial Supreme Treasure? Has he gone mad?”

“Everyone knows he’s only a match for the patriarch of the dragon clan because of his Celestial Supreme Treasures… If it weren’t for his Celestial Supreme Treasure, the patriarch of the dragon clan would have defeated and killed him!”

“He’s being reckless!”

“So what if his strength has improved? Not much time has passed since then, how much could his strength grow? In such a short period of time, it’s impossible for it to grow to the extent where he can defeat or kill a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial without a Celestial Supreme Treasure.”

“Impossible!”

“He’s crazy! Definitely crazy!”

The humans present on the scene could not help but shake their heads as they looked at Duan Ling Tian.

“Perhaps, he needs to be taught a lesson in humility.”

Among all the humans and Devils present on the scene, only Tang Xiao Xiao and a group of people who had interacted with Duan Ling Tian did not think he was being reckless or arrogant.

“If Brother Ling Tian is bold enough to say such words, he definitely has the strength to back his words!” Huang Qi Ling from the Human-devil clan was very confident.

“Master is not a reckless person.” Yuwen Hao Chen believed in Duan Ling Tian as well.

It was similar for the members of the Human-devil clan since they had seen what Duan Ling Tian was capable of when he was in the Lower Province. They did not doubt Duan Ling Tian had the strength to do what he had said.

When Wu Ji, the Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from the Devil Clans, heard Duan Ling Tian’s words, his expression darkened. He asked, “Did you say I’m not worthy of you using your Celestial Supreme Treasure?” He thought he had heard wrongly.

Duan Ling Tian asked nonchalantly, “What? Can a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial go deaf due to his age?”

A myriad of expressions flitted across the old man’s face. He could not hold back his anger and said, “Good! Very good! Since you’re so arrogant, I’d like to see how strong you are without your Celestial Supreme Treasure!”

Bang!

The old man stomped his feet, and a huge void crack instantly appeared. It looked extremely terrifying.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The old man shot forward like a cannonball toward Duan Ling Tian. Explosions rang in the air, and the void distorted before it cracked in his wake. It was a spine-chilling sight.

Bang!

When the old man was near Duan Ling Tian’s side, he waved his arm, and a vast energy shot out like a terrifying beast at Duan Ling Tian.

The old man’s aura was so domineering and awe-inspiring!

Faced with the old man’s full-force attack, Duan Ling Tian said in a teasing tone, “Is that all you got?” Then, he continued in an indifferent voice, “Your strength is merely equivalent to the dragon clan’s patriarch… It seems like I have overestimated you!”

“Shameless boasting!” The old man cried out coldly. His voice made people feel as though they were in an ice cave.

“Well, you’ll find out soon enough!” Duan Ling Tian’s tone was flat as always, but as he spoke, he started moving.

Swoosh!

Duan Ling Tian lifted his hand and bent it slightly before he struck at the old man like a dragon.

Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!

A bright white light shot out of Duan Ling Tian’s palms. They were sword rays! Thousands upon thousands of sword rays shot out before they eventually formed an impressive Sword Formations.

Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!

As soon as the Formation was completely formed, it shot out at lightning speed, leaving afterimages in its wake. This was part of the offensive Divine Ability, the Thirteen Green Lotus Swords.

Boom!

Bright light shone dazzlingly from the Sword Formation and an even stronger energy burst forth.

“H-how’s this possible?!” The old man cried out. He could clearly sense the terrifying aura from the Sword Formation. It was definitely stronger than a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial! Only Golden Celestials from the Devata Realms were able to exert such force!

Bang!

The old man’s expression changed drastically before his body expanded like a balloon and exploded into a bloody mess. One could faintly see bits of golden sparks shimmering in the air.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Then, Duan Ling Tian’s Sword Formation continued on its trajectory, dispelling the old man’s attack and destroying the bloody mess that was the old man!
