SOVEREIGNTY WAR EMPEROR, VOLUME 2 - Season 9 Episode 5

“Nothing’s impossible!” Duan Ling Tian laughed coldly, and then raised up a broken stone tablet before smashing it down at ZI Shang right away.

Swoosh!

The broken stone tablet tore through the sky and instantly seemed to have grown eyes as it flashed directly towards Zi Shang, and an extremely great pressure enveloped down, causing Zi Shang’s expression to instantly go grim.

“Kid, you win!” The aged, hoarse, and gloomy voice sounded out hurriedly before completely dying down.

At the same time, the black colored flame brand between ZI Shang’s brows vanished, causing his pair of dim eyes to be filled with spirit once more.

Right at this moment, the broken stone tablet stopped nearby Zi Shang, and it seemed as if it had lost its target.

“The old fellow fled quite quickly!” Duan Ling Tian figure flashed out to instantly arrive before the broken stone tablet, the Devilseal Tablet, and then he held it within his hand.

“But so long as Zi Shang himself is dead, then you’ll similarly be unable to survive!” Duan Ling Tian looked at Zi Shang with eyes that were filled with extreme killing intent.

On the other hand, Zi Shang’s eyes were filled with killing intent as well. Of course, besides this killing intent was traces of fear that came from the heart and soul.

Without Elder Ghost possessing him, he knew that he was far from being a match to Duan Ling Tian.

“Duan Ling Tian, you want to kill me?” Zi Shang asked with a low voice.

“You already know the answer!” Duan Ling Tian laughed coldly as the Origin Energy on his body skyrocketed to instantly transform into waves of piercingly cold strong wind that fused into the Devilseal Tablet in his hand, causing it to emit a wave of terrifying aura.

Swoosh!

At practically the instant Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, Zi Shang’s figure charged into the sky as he shouted out explosively. “Vice Fort Master Feng, save me!!”

Zi Shang’s voice contained his Origin Energy causing it to be transmitted out and reverberate in the ears of others like a thunderclap.

“Vice Fort Master Feng?” Duan Ling Tian who held the Devilseal Tablet in his hand was stunned, and then he couldn’t help but recall that he seemed to have seen Lu Yong look for Zi Shang before entering the inner fort together.

Could it be that Zi Shang entered the inner fort to meet the Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort, Feng Wei?

Duan Ling Tian’s gaze went cold when he thought up to this point, and then he didn’t hesitate in the slightest to flash out towards Zi Shang.

He wanted to kill Zi Shang and remove any future troubles before Feng Wei interfered!

Whirlwind!

Duan Ling Tian’s speed was extremely swift, and for the sake of avoiding the Devilseal Tablet from being exposed before Feng Wei, he put away the Devilseal Tablet on the way towards Zi Shang, and his eyes flickered with a dim light.

Thousand Illusions!

Without the slightest hesitation, Duan Ling Tian’s Spiritual Force fused into the soul brand in the depths of his soul to execute the soul skill that belonged solely to him.

An illusory space appeared out of thin air to sweep towards Zi Shang before completely enveloping Zi Shang within it, whereas, Zi Shang who was enveloped by this illusory space was like a lamb at Duan Ling Tian mercy and was waiting to be slaughter.

“Die!” Duan Ling Tian flashed to arrive before Zi Shang, and then he raised his hand to slash down towards Zi Shang’s head.

Duan Ling Tian’s face suddenly went grim when his hand was just about to slash open Zi Shang’s head like a watermelon because a terrifying aura had suddenly skyrocketed out from Zi Shang’s body, whereas, the illusory space formed by his soul skill, Thousand Illusions, had shattered instantly.

Swoosh!

Zi Shang’s figure flashed out to easily avoid Duan Ling Tian’s palm that slashed down, and then he stood in the distance as he silently stared at Duan Ling Tian.

“Old fellow, looks like you’re really unafraid of death!” Duan Ling Tian already knew what had happened when he saw the black colored flame brand that had appeared between Zi Shang’s brows.

It was precisely the strand of incomplete soul that seemed to belong to a Martial Emperor within Zi Shang’s body that had occupied Zi Shang’s body just in time at the instant before Zi Shang was killed by Duan Ling Tian.

Not only had the soul occupied Zi Shang’s body, it had even shattered the illusory space constructed by his soul skill, Thousand Illusions, before assisting Zi Shang in avoiding this fatal strike.

“Kid, you have to go through me if you want to kill Zi Shang!” Elder Ghost who’d temporarily possessed Zi Shang’s body let out an evil laugh as he spoke.

“You’re courting death!” Duan Ling Tian’s face sank, then he withdrew the Devilseal Tablet with a raise of his hand, and the Devilseal Tablet seemed to have noticed something, causing it to flash towards Zi Shang by itself.

When the Devilseal Tablet was just about to smash onto Zi Shang, the black colored flame brand between his brows vanished, causing the Devilseal Tablet to once again stop in midair.

“Zi Shang, let me see if that old fellow can save you this time!” For the sake of taking precautions against that old fellow possessing Zi Shang’s body and saving Zi Shang once more, Duan Ling Tian didn’t put the Devilseal Tablet away this time.

Thousand Illusions!

Subsequently, a dim light flickered within Duan Ling Tian’s eyes as he once again executed the soul skill that belonged solely to him.

Instantly, Zi Shang was once again enveloped by an illusory space.

“Die!” Duan Ling Tian’s gaze went slightly cold as he raised up the Devilseal Tablet before smashing it down towards Zi Shang’s head.

He wanted to see if that old fellow would still dare come out, as once the old fellow did emerge, he would surely make the old fellow die along with Zi Shang!

“Hmph!” Right when the Devilseal Tablet Duan Ling Tian raised up was about to crush Zi Shang, a cold grunt entered into Duan Ling Tian’s ears.

Along with this cold grunt was a shapeless and enormous force.

Bang!

A terrifying and enormous force swept out to blast Duan Ling Tian flying, causing the piercingly cold strong winds in Duan Ling Tian’s surroundings to shatter and the sheen on the Devilseal Tablet in his hand dimmed down as well.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

When Duan Ling Tian returned to his senses, he noticed that four figures had flashed in successively from the exit, and they were Feng Wei, Ning Can, Saber 13, and Saber 5.

The person that struck out earlier was precisely Feng Wei who was the first to arrive.

“Feng Wei, what’s the meaning of this? The Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties is held by your Skywolf Fort, yet a dignified Vice Fort Master of the Skywolf Fort like you went against the rules to interfere in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties. Isn’t it going slightly too far?” When Sword 13 entered, he just happened to see the scene of Duan Ling Tian being blasted flying, and his expression instantly went gloomy as he spoke out coldly.

Waves of sword intent that charged into the sky abruptly swept out from his body, and his entire body seemed to have transformed into a sword that would whistle out at any moment and annihilate Feng Wei.

On the other hand, Feng Wei who was locked onto by Sword 13’s aura had an unsightly expression, yet he still said in a low voice, “Sword 13, the second round of the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties is a ranking selection, and there’s no rule that the young geniuses of the various Dynasties can kill each other.”

“You’re twisting the facts!” Sword 13’s gaze was like a sword as he took a step forward, and he was like an enormous sword that stood in the sky and brought an even greater pressure to Feng Wei.

“Sword 13, this is my Skywolf Fort, and not your Blade Sect! Even you said that the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties is held by my Skywolf Fort, so the rules are naturally set by us.” Ning Wei glanced indifferently at Sword 13, and his words showed obvious signs of siding with Feng Wei.

“So what if this is your Skywolf Fort? Could it be that I, Sword 13, have to find another place if I want to teach someone a lesson?” Sword 13 sneered, and he moved out at practically the instant he finished speaking.

Sword 13 vanished into thin air on the spot in Duan Ling Tian’s field of vision.

Slap!

Practically at the exact same moment, a clear sound of a slap sounded out. Duan Ling Tian’s gaze shook, and he noticed that Sword 13 had appeared before Feng Wei at almost the instant Sword 13 vanished on the spot.

Moreover, he’s even given Feng Wei a slap!

A clear palm print appeared on Feng Wei’s face, causing Feng Wei to be temporarily dumbstruck, as he probably had never imagined that Sword 13 would dare make a move against him and even slap him in front of so many people.

“Sword 13, you’re courting death!” Feng Wei was enraged, utterly enraged, and his entire body seemed to have transformed into a bloodthirsty wild beast that opened up its bloody mouth as it pounced towards Sword 13.

But unfortunately, he didn’t even touch the corner of Sword 13’s clothes.

“How swift!” Duan Ling Tian couldn’t help but be shocked in his heart when he saw Sword 13’s figure that occasionally vanished on the spot and occasionally appeared at another spot.

Feng Wei couldn’t even withstand a single blow before Sword 13.

From the beginning until the end, only the phenomenon of the heavens and the earth caused by Feng Wei attacking flashed about in the sky, whereas, there was nothing in the sky above Sword 13.

It could be known from this that every single movement of Sword 13 was extremely brief, and the phenomenon of the heavens and the earth was utterly unable to condense in the sky.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

…

Even though Feng Wei attacked quickly, yet he was unable to even touch the corners of Sword 13’s clothes.

“Sword 13!” Ning Can’s expression darkened, and then he joined the battle to join forces with Feng Wei to deal with Sword 13.

But unfortunately, even if the both of them joined forces, they were still unable to touch Sword 13.

“Sword 13… You… You’ve broken through to that level?” Finally, Ning Can stopped attacking and stood at the side without wasting anymore strength, and he gasped as he asked.

Whoosh!

Sword 13 figure that vanished had appeared once more before Duan Ling Tian’s eyes.

Subsequently, Duan Ling Tian saw Sword 13 didn’t dodge this time and instead casually punched out with his fist instead, and it was like a sledgehammer as it moved to intercept Feng Wei’s fist that shot out like a cannonball.

Bang!

An enormous bang resounded out, Sword 13 remained without moving on the spot, whereas, Feng Wei flew out like an arrow leaving the bow instead, and then he collided heavily onto the crypt’s wall.

“Pu!” Feng Wei’s couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and his eye were filled with astonishment when he looked at Sword 13 once more. “You… How could you possibly be so strong?!”

“Feng Wei, I truly admire your courage… Even I don’t dare challenge Junior Brother Sword since a year ago. A mere seventh level Void Transformation Stage martial artist like you dares be arrogant before a ninth level Void Transformation Stage martial artist. Needless to say, your courage is commendable.” Saber 5, who’d always been quietly standing at the side, glanced at Feng Wei with disdain, and he seemed to be ridiculing Feng Wei for overestimating his ability.

Ninth level of the Void Transformation Stage!

Saber 5’s words caused Feng Wei to be unable to help but shudder, and he revealed an expression of disbelief when he looked at Sword 13 again. “How… How can this be possible?! How could you, Sword 13, break through to that level so swiftly!?”

Feng Wei was naturally clear of what the words ninth level of the Void Transformation Stage meant.

In the entire Cloud Continent, the martial artists with the strongest cultivation beneath the unfathomable Martial Monarch Stage experts were martial artists at the ninth level of the Void Transformation Stage.

“Ninth level of the Void Transformation Stage?” Duan Ling Tian was stunned for a while when he heard Saber 5’s words.

Sword 13, Su Li’s master was actually a ninth level Void Transformation Stage expert?

That was a formidable existence that was the closest to the Martial Monarch Stage.

Duan Ling Tian who possessed the memories of the Rebirth Martial Emperor’s two lifetimes naturally knew what an existence at the ninth level of the Void Transformation Stage meant, and he knew that it was the strongest experts amongst the Void Stage.

The Void Stage was subdivided into four stages.

The Void Prying, Void Initiation, Void Interpretation, and Void Transformation.

The ninth level of the Void Transformation Stage was sourced from the four great stages of the Void Stage, yet it also stood at the highest peak in the Void Stage.

In terms of strength, it could be considered to be the strongest below the Martial Monarch Stage.
