Chapter 1998: Yang Wen’s TechniqueTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Elementary Devouring Tactic!

While Yang Wen’s energy surged out of his body, the Sun Saint Energy that Duan Ling Tian had accumulated in his body surged out as well. In just a blink of an eye, whirlpools began to appear on his body and churned at an extremely fast speed. A strong suction energy came from the whirlpool as it absorbed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in its surroundings.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

When Duan Ling Tian cast the Elementary Devouring Tactic and the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy was completely absorbed by him, the sounds of explosions rang in the air.

In terms of commotion, it was in no way inferior to the commotion caused by the powerful Saint Origin surging out of Yang Wen’s body.

“Assist-type Divine Ability?” Yang Wen who was standing in the distance saw Duan Ling Tian completely absorbed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in his surroundings before his Saint Energy was raised to the Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage from the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage in just a short time. He narrowed his eyes immediately.

The ridiculous boost from this Divine Ability far surpassed the treasured Divine Ability of the Four Symbols Sanctum’s Azure Dragon Sanctum! Most importantly, he had heard Duan Ling Tian could maintain this assist-type Divine Ability for a very long time, far longer than an ordinary assist-type Divine Ability.

‘However, his Saint Energy that’s merely equivalent to that of a powerhouse at the Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage is just like a clay chicken, unworthy to be mentioned in front of me!’ The moment Yang Wen thought of this, he became even more confident.

However, despite feeling extremely confident, he did not make the first move. This was because he knew Duan Ling Tian’s current strength was not as simple as just being at the Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage!

In fact, Hong Xu whose strength was close to the Saint Celestial Stage after consuming the forbidden pill had still died in Duan Ling Tian’s hand in the end.

Even if Duan Ling Tian’s true strength had not reached the Saint Celestial Stage, his current strength was very close to it.

If this was an ordinary friendly match, Yang Wen would have made the first move faced with an opponent who was not a match for him.

Although he felt Duan Ling Tian was not a match for him, due to the reason this was a Death Duel, he still needed to maintain a level head. He had no choice but to be wary since this concerned his life.

“This is Duan Ling Tian’s assist-type Divine Ability?” At the same time, everyone, including the custodian of the Palace of Death, Nie Zui, and the three Bronze Flame Elders shifted their attention to Duan Ling Tian simultaneously.

They had witnessed with their own eyes how the whirlpools around Duan Ling Tian’s body had absorbed all the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy around him in a short time. Not only that, but it instantly raised Duan Ling Tian’s Saint Energy to the Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage!

“What a horrifying boost! In just a blink of an eye, the aura of the Saint Energy on Duan Ling Tian’s body is raised to the Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage from the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage!”

“Although I’ve heard about Duan Ling Tian’s assist-type Divine Ability, it’s amazing witnessing it with my own eyes!”

“That’s right! Even the most treasured assist-type Divine Ability of the Four Symbols Sanctum’s Azure Dragon Sanctum may not necessarily be able to raise one’s strength to this extent even after it’s been comprehended to the highest stage!”

“Put aside the Divine Ability from the Azure Dragon Sanctum, even the Divine Ability known as the number one assist-type Divine Ability in our Fire Worship Sect might not even be able to compare to it even after it’s comprehended to the highest stage!”

“In that case, don’t tell me the assist-type Divine Ability that Duan Ling Tian mastered is actually on par with the number one assist-type Divine Ability in our Fire Worship Sect?”

“In theory, yes!”

The group of Saint Land disciples seated around the Death Arena turned solemn.

Based on their conversations, one could see they thought highly of Duan Ling Tian’s assist-type Divine Ability.

“If Duan Ling Tian hasn’t comprehended his assist-type Divine Ability to the highest stage yet, doesn’t this mean his Divine Ability is far more powerful than the Fire Worship Sect’s number one assist-type Divine Ability?” A Saint Land disciple in a spectator seat suddenly said.

His words caused the surrounding Saint Land disciples to fall silent immediately.

“If his assist-type Divine Ability hasn’t been comprehended to the highest level, then it’s definitely more powerful than the Fire Worship Sect’s number one assist-type Divine Ability!”

“That’s right! The boost in his strength is equivalent to the boost of the number one assist-type Divine Ability when it’s comprehended to the highest stage!”

“If his assist-type Divine Ability really has more room for progress, then even if his assist-type Divine Ability is not on par with the assist-type Divine Ability from the Black Kshetra Sect, it’s more or less the same!”

The group of Saint Land disciples mentioned the assist-type Divine Ability from the Black Kshetra Sect as they discussed among themselves.

In the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, the three great sects were like leviathans, dominating over other sects.

In the three great sects, each of them had many high-grade Divine Abilities that had their own strong points.

Take the Fire Worship Sect for example, its most powerful Divine Ability was an offensive Divine Ability. That offensive Divine Ability was the number one Divine Ability in the Fire Worship Sect. It was also the most treasured Divine Ability in the Fire Worship Sect!

On the other hand, the Black Kshetra Sect’s most powerful Divine Ability was an assist-type Divine Ability. It was also the Black Kshetra Sect’s most treasured Divine Ability!

When that assist-type Divine Ability was comprehended to the highest stage, rumor had it that it could raise one’s strength an entire stage higher in just a short time!

What did it mean to have one’s strength raised an entire stage higher?

In other words, if it was cast by the current Duan Ling Tian, his Sun Saint Energy that was equivalent to the Saint Energy of a powerhouse at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage would be raised to the peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage in a short time!

For this reason, the Saint Land disciple began to compare the two assist-type Divine Abilities.

As for the remaining sect of the three great sects, the Heaven Divination Sect, its most powerful Divine Ability was a defensive Divine Ability. It was the most treasured Divine Ability in the Heaven Divination Sect.

Compared to the most treasured Divine Abilities in the Fire Worship Sect and Black Kshetra Sect, the most treasured Divine Ability in the Heaven Divination Sect was much more famous because it was an ancient defensive Divine Ability that was passed down from the ancient times. It had already existed before the three great sects were formed in the Dao Martial Saint Land.

That Divine Ability was also widely acknowledged as the number one defensive Divine Ability in the Dao Martial Saint Land!

Whoosh!

A faint noise sounded in the air. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the sky in within 100-meter of Yang Wen seemed to tremble as Territory that was filled with killing intent finally appeared. One could faintly see bloody red Qi around the Territory.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Apart from that, a wave of Saint Origin had risen to the air above Yang Wen before it split into two and transformed into a long spear and a gigantopithecus.

The long spear was over 30 meters long while the gigantopithecus stood in the air like a little mountain. Its size could even cover the sun.

“Saint Origin Consolidated Weapon? Saint Origin Consolidated Beast?” Duan Ling Tian was momentarily stunned when he saw this. In his opinion, these were very lowly techniques. It was basically the upgraded version of the True Energy Consolidated Weapon and True Energy Consolidated Beast.

Usually, among the three great techniques — the True Energy Consolidated Weapon, True Energy Consolidated Beast, and True Energy Consolidated Territory — that a Martial or Dao Cultivator mastered at the early stage, only the True Energy Consolidated Territory could accompany him to go a little further.

This was because in the end, as the martial tactic progressed, with the appearance of various Divine Abilities, even the True Energy Consolidated Territory technique would gradually be weakened.

“Unify!” Yang Wen shouted loudly in the next moment, causing Duan Ling Tian to narrow his eyes as his expression turned solemn.

In the air above Yang Wen’s head, the little mountain-like gigantopithecus consolidated by the Saint Origin Consolidated Beast actually came to life. It reached out its right hand and gripped the 30 meters long spear in its hand.

After it gripped the long spear, the gigantopithecus’ sturdy body suddenly trembled before it beat its own chest with its other hand.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

ROAAARRRR!!!

Without warning, the gigantopithecus roared loudly. Its voice was thunderously loud as it spread out. It caused some Saint Land disciples whose cultivation base was lower to frown.

At the same time, under the gaze of the crowd, Yang Wen’s Territory that was filled with killing intent suddenly turned red before it charged toward the the gigantopithecus. As the gigantopithecus roared, it entered the gigantopithecus’ mouth. It seemed as though the gigantopithecus had swallowed Yang Wen’s Territory!

After the gigantopithecus swallowed the Territory, there were no big changes on its body. The bloody red Qi began to rise from its body and the long spear in its hand. The bloody red Qi surrounded its body. Apart from that, its originally dark and dull eyes had turned bloodshot as well.

In just an instant, the aura of the gigantopithecus’ seemed to have undergone an earth-shattering transformation. On top of the killing intent, it gave off a dangerous vibe.

At the very least, Duan Ling Tian felt it.

“It’s the medium-grade offensive Divine Ability, the Three Flowers Unification!” At the same time, Duan Ling Tian heard the words of many Saint Land disciples who were seated around the Death Arena. Through this, he learned that it was a medium-grade offensive Divine Ability.

This offensive Divine Ability relied on the most basic three techniques — True Energy Consolidated Weapon, True Energy Consolidated Beast, and the True Energy Consolidated Territory…

Naturally, Yang Wen had cast his Saint Origin Consolidated Weapon, Saint Origin Consolidated Beast, and Saint Origin Consolidated Territory instead.

The medium-grade offensive Divine Ability, the Three Flowers Unification, was about unifying three techniques into one to attack.

This offensive Divine Ability was also considered as being in the top-tier among medium-grade offensive Divine Abilities.

All of a sudden, Yang Wen shouted, “Kill him!”

In the next instant, the gigantopithecus hovering above his head seemed to gain sentience as its eyes suddenly brightened. It instant flew out as commanded. The mountain-like body charged toward Duan Ling Tian at an extremely fast speed!
