Chapter 1346: The Potential Of The Fused Profundity

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As for the Fused Profundity, Duan Ling Tian still had no idea what it really was until now.

Initially, the five Monarch Stage Nature Profundities had merged and become the Fused Profundity… The power of the Fused Profundity was so strong that it was comparable to an Emperor Stage Profundity.

In a state of confusion, Duan Ling Tian decided to ask Elder Huo, the Three-legged Golden Crow, in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.

After he entered the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, he noticed Elder Huo was hovering cross-legged in the air with his eyes closed. He did not know whether he was cultivating or just shutting his eyes to attain mental composure.

When Duan Ling Tian came in, Elder Huo immediately opened his eyes.

Duan Ling Tian quickly voiced out the question in his mind.

“Profundity?” Elder Huo raised a brow. It was his first time hearing this term.

Perhaps, the cultivation system in every place was different… Profundity was the term used on Cloud Continent.

Maybe the other two Mortal Continents had a different term for it.

“It’s this energy.” With a raise of his hand, five-colored energy took the form of a five-colored light ball that hovered in the air. “This is the Fused Profundity I’m talking about. And this… is the Sword Profundity.”

Duan Ling Tian raised the other hand. A translucent sword that emitted waves of sharp aura hovered above his palm as it continued to twirl.

“So this is the Profundity that you speak of.” After Elder Huo looked at it, he instantly nodded. “These Profundities are similar to the Five Elemental Qi on Planet Yan Huang. Once the Five Elemental Qi enters a person’s body completely, it’ll activate his body’s potential, and his strength will take a great leap forward.”

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up immediately when he heard Elder Huo’s words.

His words were similar to the reason Profundities existed.

According to Han Xue Nai, once the Profundities merged with one’s body completely, it would be able to open the Saint Vein. At that time, the Profundities would become part of one’s body, no longer a separate entity.

This had the same concept as the Five Elemental Qi mentioned by Elder Huo.

“It feels like your Sword Profundity has already reached the limit of the Five Elemental Qi. As for the Fused Profundity, it seems like it’s going to reach its limit soon as well. However, I can feel that it still has a huge potential that has yet to be discovered.” Elder Huo’s gaze landed on the five-colored light ball hovering in the air. There was a hint of bafflement in his eyes.

“A huge potential?” Upon hearing that, Duan Ling Tian’s heart trembled for a moment before he thought to himself, “Don’t tell me the Fused Profundity currently is only at the Monarch Stage and it can actually be raised up to the Emperor Stage?”

The more he pondered, the more disbelief he felt.

Was this not too far-fetched?

His Fused Profundity was already on par with the Emperor Stage Profundity.

If it could still be raised to the Emperor Stage Fused Profundity, then how powerful would it be? Ten times more than Emperor Stage Profundities?

What kind of concept was that?

Duan Ling Tian felt chills running down his spine when he thought about this.

“If it’s possible, I hope you’ll only make your breakthrough after you’ve completely discovered the potential of your Fused Profundity… At that time, the benefits that you get will be beyond the reach of any other ordinary person,” Elder Huo finally said after he pondered deeply for a moment.

“After I’ve completely discovered the potential of my Fused Profundity?” Duan Ling Tian frowned. If the Fused Profundity was only at the Eighth Level Monarch Stage Profundity… Then, wouldn’t he need to comprehend it until the Ninth Level Emperor Stage Profundity if he wanted to discover the potential of his Fused Profundity?

Going to the Ninth Level Emperor Stage Fused Profundity from the Eighth Level Monarch Stage Fused Profundity? My goodness! How long would that take?

However, Duan Ling Tian believed Elder Huo’s words either way.

Who was he?

He was the Three-legged Golden Crow! The divine sunbird from the ancient mythology in his past life!

To be honest, such a creature had no reason to deceive him at all.

Moreover, he was now the owner of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. As the pagoda spirit of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, by right, Elder Huo would never harm him at all nor did he have any reason to.

After taking a deep breath, Duan Ling Tian voiced out his concern that it would take too long for him to comprehend it until the Ninth Level Emperor Stage Fused Profundity.

“The time you’ll need to spend is indeed a little long… However, you can stay in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda to cultivate since time passes slowly in here,” Elder Huo told Duan Ling Tian, “On the first level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, two days inside are equivalent to a day outside. Moreover, if you can find enough materials, I’ll be able to fix the second level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. At that time, three days inside will be equivalent to a day outside.”

“Yeah, I guess that’s the only solution now.” Duan Ling Tian nodded.

He decided not to use the Ninth Level Sword Profundity as the bridge to open up the Saint Vein hidden inside his body for now… He would only open it after he had comprehended the Ninth Level Emperor Stage Fused Profundity.

‘Fused Profundity… I hope that you’ll surprise me at that time!’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.

He knew that once he had made his decision, he was destined to open the Saint Vein at a much later time to enter the Mortal Shedding Stage.

At the same time, a strong premonition rose up in Duan Ling Tian’s heart.

Perhaps his decision would affect the number of Saint Veins he would be able to open in the future. “In this case, I might stand a chance to win Bastard… Bastard managed to open twenty-three Saint Veins at the Intermediate Stage of the Mortal Shedding Stage. Even when Xue Nai reached the Intermediate Stage of the Mortal Shedding Stage in the future, it would almost be impossible for her to open twenty-three Saint Veins… The most she’ll be able to open is twenty-two Saint Veins.”

The ‘Bastard’ Duan Ling Tian spoke of was none other than Wang Ba, the current Di Yong who had left Half Moon Island to journey to the Dao Martial Saint Land.

He had so much faith in himself because he was no longer the old him. Currently, in addition to having undergone two ‘rebirths’, his body’s foundation was extremely strong too.

What a joke!

In terms of a strong foundation, what else could be stronger than the Fused Profundity?

“How interesting… If I can really open 81 Saint Veins, it’ll be perfect!” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes shone as he daydreamed even though he felt it was a little far-fetched.

In fact, there were only three people who managed to open up to 81 Saint Veins in the long history of Dao Martial Saint Land… Although he had never experienced it, he could imagine how difficult it was.

After listening to Elder Huo’s advice, and after he made up his mind, Duan Ling Tian focused on comprehending the Fused Profundity. At this time, comprehending the Fused Profundity was the only thing he could do.

Be it his cultivation base or his Sword Profundity, both had reached their limit for now and could no longer be raised.

“What a coincidence, the Sword Dao that originated from the word ‘Sword’ in my mind has also been depleted when I comprehended the Ninth Level Emperor Stage Sword Profundity,” Duan Ling Tian muttered, “It looks like it’s time for me to go back and have a look at the word ‘Sword’. I wonder if my Sword Profundity will continue to progress if I look at the word ‘Sword’ again and comprehend more Sword Dao.”

When it came to the Sword Profundity, Duan Ling Tian had comprehended it to the Ninth Level Emperor Stage Sword Profundity. By right, he had already reached the limit.

However, in Duan Ling Tian’s opinion, the word ‘Sword’ did not adhere to normal logic.

He had had a strong feeling about this.

After the two girls stayed by Yang Xue’s grave for three months, they finally left and returned to Duan Ling Tian’s side.

“Let’s go back to the Southern Outer Land!” After informing the two girls and bidding farewell to Xiong Quan and Gold Thug, Duan Ling Tian brought the two girls along with him and left.

Although Xiong Quan and Gold Thug wanted to leave together with Duan Ling Tian, they quickly dismissed the idea the moment they thought about Ke’er and Li Fei… After all, would they not disrupt the atmosphere if they went with them?

Duan Ling Tian brought the two girls with him and quickly passed through the boundless Ruo Shui River before they finally reached the Southern Outer Land.

After returning to the Southern Outer Land, he was beset with memories at the sight of the place and sighed.

At this moment, he remembered the Lu Clan who was annihilated by the Han Clan. He used to stay in the Lu Clan for a period of time previously. However, it was gone just like that.

Ke’er and Li Fei did not say a word at all. They only quietly stayed by Duan Ling Tian’s side.

There was no need for words at this moment.

If the Han Clan’s disciple who had annihilated the Lu Clan was still alive, Duan Ling Tian would immediately find him to seek revenge… However, the problem was that Han Clan’s disciple had already been killed by Xue Nai.

Due to this reason, he could only cherish the memory he had with the former Lu Clan.

“As long as Lu Bai’s still around, the Lu Clan is not completely annihilated… When I return this time, I’ll help him rebuild the Lu Clan again.” At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was reminded of Lu Bai.

Lu Bai was the Second Young Master of Lu Clan. He was also the only remaining survivor in the Lu Clan after it was annihilated. After that, he had crossed Ruo Shui River to the Inner Land before entering Ling Tian Sect to become a Ling Tian Sect’s disciple.

After letting out another long sigh, Duan Ling Tian brought the two girls with him and left the Northern Divergent Land of the Southern Outer Land.

With Duan Ling Tian’s current speed, it did not take him long before he arrived at a familiar place.

The northern desert.

That time, when he left the Darkhan Dynasty for the first time, the first place he went was the northern desert. He had joined the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties organized by Skywolf Fort, a third-rate force in the northern desert.

When the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties began, it was also when he truly walked up the stage of Cloud Continent.

Looking back at the past, Duan Ling Tian could not help but sigh even though he had already been through two reincarnations.

They did not stay in the northern desert. Duan Ling Tian proceeded to bring the two girls back to Darkhan Dynasty, the Darkstone Empire, the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, and finally, Seven Star Sword Sect.

After so many years, the seven sword peaks that soared up to the sky in Seven Star Sword Sect’s base site had also returned to its original look. There were no signs that showed it had been destroyed before.

Hovering high above the sky, Duan Ling Tian looked at the seven Sword Peaks as a hint of nostalgia flashed through his eyes.

As for the two girls by his side, tears already welled up in their eyes as their delicate bodies began to tremble slightly from the overwhelming emotions. They had left this place for far too long.

That time when they had left, it did not cross their minds that they would leave for more than ten years.
