“Damn it!” Leng Ye cursed angrily. His Celestial Origin Energy surged out of his body in all directions, causing a series of explosions.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sounds of the explosions echoed in the valley, stirring up pebbles and a thick cloud of smoke. Although Leng Ye, a Nine Palaces Celestial King, did not unleash his full power, the energy that had been brewing in his body was still extraordinarily destructive.

Leng Ye was incredibly certain he would be able to kill Duan Ling Tian with his own hands today. After all, he thought it would be impossible for Duan Ling Tian to possess another Celestial Talisman like the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman. Therefore, he was not in a hurry to kill Duan Ling Tian. He decided he wanted to see Duan Ling Tian’s expression of despair before he killed Duan Ling Tian. Alas, he did not expect Ling Jue Yun would possess a Celestial Talisman comparable to the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman. With Ling Jue Yun’s Celestial Talisman, the duo successfully escaped. At this moment, he truly regretted not killing Duan Ling Tian as soon as he saw Duan Ling Tian. His comrade was right; Duan Ling Tian would not have been able to escape if he had killed Duan Ling Tian immediately.

“Let’s return. It’ll be more difficult than ascending to heaven for us to find him now that he’s alerted to our presence,” Leng Ye’s comrade said, “Don’t worry, the organization won’t find out about what happened today. We’ll just report that we failed to track Duan Ling Tian down. However, after today’s lesson, I hope you won’t make the same mistake again… Despite being hunted by our organization, a mere peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial is capable of surviving until now. It’s obvious he’s no ordinary person.”

“Thank you for your understanding.” After calming down, Leng Ye expressed his gratitude upon hearing his comrade’s words. He was well aware that if the Blood Skull Gang found out about what happened today, they would not let the matter slide since it was entirely his fault that Duan Ling Tian managed to escape again.

…

Meanwhile, Ling Jue Yun who had used his Celestial Talisman and brought Duan Ling Tian with him to escape arrived in the middle of a quiet and eerie forest.

“Thank you,” Duan Ling Tian thanked Ling Jue Yun. If it were not for Ling Jue Yun, he would be trapped in the valley and possibly die. After all, it was impossible for him to escape from the Blood Skull Gang’s assassins without a Celestial Talisman like the Wind Shadow Escape Talisman.

A hint of sadness could be seen on Ling Jue Yun’s face as he replied, “Please treat Sister Huang’er well.”

The escape-type Celestial Talisman Ling Jue Yun had used was one of the few possessions he had left. When he left the Divine Offering Land, there was nothing much his clan could give him. Moreover, most of the things in his possession belonged to him originally. His clan was suddenly annihilated, and he was only able to escape because he had escaped notice due to his low cultivation base and Huang’er’s help.

“Don’t worry.” Duan Ling Tian nodded. “She’s now the soul of my divine artifact. Naturally, I won’t mistreat her.”

“Let’s leave this area immediately. If we linger here, the two Nine Palaces Celestial Kings might find us if they continue tracking us down,” Ling Jue Yun said.

The duo made their way out of the forest, leaving in the direction opposite of the valley.

During the journey, Ling Jue Yun asked, “You haven’t explained why the Blood Skull Gang would send, not one, but two Nine Palaces Celestial Kings after you!” He still could not figure it out. Was it necessary to send such powerful assassins after a mere peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial like Duan Ling Tian even if Duan Ling Tian had a high innate talent and comprehension skills?

“It’s because I killed two of the assassins they had sent after me previously,” Duan Ling Tian replied.

“What?!” Ling Jue Yun’s eyes widened slightly when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. “Y-you killed two assassins from the Blood Skull Gang?” He thought, for a moment, that he had misheard Duan Ling Tian. After all, based on what he knew, even the weakest assassin in the Blood Skull Gang was a One Basic Celestial King.

Duan Ling Tian nodded slightly in response.

“From what I know, even the weakest assassin from the Blood Skull Gang is a One Basic Celestial King, right? How did you manage to kill the two assassins?” Ling Jue Yun asked.

“I used a consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon.” Duan Ling Tian did not need to hide the truth from Ling Jue Yun. He knew Ling Jue Yun would not be interested in his consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon at all. Even if Ling Jue Yun coveted it, Ling Jue Yun would not dare to snatch it from him due to Huang’er. After all, Ling Jue Yun deeply respected Huang’er who was now the artifact soul of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword. Hence, he was certain Ling Jue Yun would not offend or provoke him for no good reason.

“Although I’ve only comprehended the profundities from an ordinary law, the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon grants me the Celestial Origin Energy and strength of a One Basic Celestial Lord. Ordinary Celestial Kings are no match for me,” Duan Ling Tian added.

“You even own a consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon?” Ling Jue Yun was slightly taken aback. However, with this, his question was answered.

Since Duan Ling Tian possessed a consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, it would be easy for him to kill ordinary Celestial Kings. Alas, even if Duan Ling Tian had strength comparable to a One Basic Celestial Lord, he still would not be a match for either one of the two Nine Palaces Celestial Kings from the Blood Skull Gang since the number of profundities they had comprehended was higher compared to Duan Ling Tian.

Most of the Nine Palaces Celestial Kings in the Spirit Overarching Heaven’s Southern Heaven Territory had comprehended at least six or seven profundities from a law. Some with higher comprehension skills had even comprehended eight profundities from a law. Although it was possible for a Nine Palaces Celestial King to comprehend all nine profundities from a law, such a person was almost non-existent in the Southern Heaven Territory. Perhaps, they could only be found in places that were bigger than the Southern Heaven Territory.

“Ling Jue Yun.” A question suddenly appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s mind at this moment. His eyes flashed as he asked with a hint of anticipation, “Within a month after consuming the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit, not only would we become Ten Directions Celestial Duke, but we would comprehend profundities from a certain law… Is there a chance for the law to be one of the Four Supreme Laws?”

“This…” Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, the first thought that appeared in Ling Jue Yun’s mind was how greedy Duan Ling Tian was. After that, it was quickly replaced with anticipation as well. Naturally, he also hoped he could comprehend a second Supreme Law. “I have no idea. I only know after consuming the fruit, one would be able to comprehend profundities from a new law. I haven’t heard anything about the type of laws those people who ate the fruit had comprehended. However, I also haven’t heard anything about it being impossible to comprehend one of the Four Supreme Laws.”

“So you’re saying it’s not entirely impossible?” Duan Ling Tian asked eagerly.

“Even if it’s possible, the possibility of us comprehending one of the Four Supreme Laws is low, especially in my case.” Ling Jue Yun smiled wryly.

“Why?” Duan Ling Tian frowned.

“Take me for example. I’m able to comprehend the law of death because of the blood of my clan… Unlike ordinary people, I’m destined to be incapable of comprehending the law of life because of the blood in my veins. This can’t be changed even if I eat the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit. Apart from that, we have encountered and comprehended the law of time when we were in the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm in the Profound Nether Mansion. Although we didn’t fully comprehend its Fundamental Profundity, it still doesn’t change the fact that we had tried to comprehend it. Therefore, it’s impossible for us to comprehend the law of time from the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit since it’ll only help you comprehend a law you haven’t encountered and comprehended before. Under such circumstances, unless it’s the law of space, I won’t be able to comprehend the other Supreme Laws through the fruit. The probability of me comprehending the law of space is minute compared to Elemental Laws such as the law of wind, thunder, ice… In your case, the probability of you comprehending one of the Four Supreme Laws is higher than mine. So far, you’ve only encountered and tried to comprehend the law of time. Moreover, after obtaining the branch from the Tree of Life, you didn’t comprehend the law of life, the law of death, or the law of space. Therefore, you have a chance of comprehending one of the three remaining Supreme Laws.” It was obvious Ling Jue Yun had considered his answer thoroughly before replying to Duan Ling Tian.

“You recognized the branch from the Tree of Life?” Duan Ling Tian was startled. He knew Ling Jue Yun was present when he obtained the branch from the Tree of Life during an auction. Back then, he was with the people from the Supporting Fall Nation while Ling Jue Yun was with the people from the East Ming Nation. However, he did not expect Ling Jue Yun to recognize the branch from the Tree of Life.

“It’s only natural that I recognize the branch from the Tree of Life since I’m from the Divine Offering Land,” Ling Jue Yun replied, “When you bid for the branch, I knew that you were also aware that it came from the Tree of Life. I should’ve known at that time that you’re also a descendant of a supreme powerhouse since you recognized the branch.”

Duan Ling Tian asked curiously, “Since you know the branch was from the Tree of Life, why did you let me have it instead of bidding for it?”
