War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens - Chapter 4552: The Outer Boundary’s Sacred Lightning Realm

"I finally caught up with my master…"

Duan Ling Tian smiled faintly as he looked at the heavenly text in the sky. Then, he turned to Five Divine Elements and said, "I don't need all of you to stay with me in the future. You've all gained human forms so you can now live independently. Go and live your own life… In the future, if you have any problems, I'll definitely help you as long as it's within my capabilities and doesn't violate my principles. You've been with me for many years so you should be clear about my principles. Each of you has three chances to ask for my help…"

In fact, Duan Ling Tian did not have any obligations to help the Five Divine Elements, but he had made such a promise for old times' sake. However, he was also worried that the Five Divine Elements would look for him for every minor trouble and that they would take it for granted so he limited it to three times each. Needless to say, if they were in dire straits, he would still help them even if they had used up the three chances. After all, he would never forget that the Five Divine Elements had helped him on his journey here.

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian's words, the Five Divine Elements bowed and thanked him.

"Thank you."

Duan Ling Tian raised his hand and said, "You may take your leave."

After the Five Divine Elements gained human forms, they now possessed the strength of a supreme powerhouse; they were all relatively strong. Coupled with their original forms as Five Divine Elements, as long as they cultivated diligently, it was not impossible for them to grow stronger.

After Duan Ling Tian spoke, four of the Divine Elements quickly left, easily bypassing the spatial barriers with their powerful strength and leaving only a gentle-looking woman behind. She was none other than the World Cleansing Divine Water.

"Sister Water…" Duan Ling Tian looked at the World Cleansing Divine Water in confusion when he saw that she did not leave.

The World Cleansing Divine Water smiled and said, "I've been with the Divine Tree of Life for many years, and I've long gotten used to it. To me, the tree is like a parent. Although I've gained a human form, I have no desire to wander the world. Instead, I want to continue staying with the Divine Tree of Life. I hope you'll fulfill my wish, my lord."

In the past, the World Cleansing Divine Water used to address Duan Ling Tian as 'Little Tian'. However, now, she addressed him respectfully as 'my lord'.

Duan Ling Tian did not expect the World Cleansing Divine Water to want to stay. After a moment, he shook his head and said, "Sister Water, you should just continue to address me as 'Little Tian'. If you want to stay, then stay."

The Divine Tree of Life in Duan Ling Tian's Little World continued to stand tall. After Duan Ling Tian's breakthrough, it had grown even stronger and was thriving. Earlier, after breaking through, he had fulfilled the Divine Tree of Life's wish and created a small opening in his Little World so the Divine Tree of Life could see the outside world.

"I don't dare to be so presumptuous," the World Cleansing Divine Water said, "After all, you're one of the two most powerful people in the world after the gap in history. You're no longer just an advanced Supreme God…"

Duan Ling Tian sighed inwardly upon seeing the polite distance that the World Cleansing Divine Water placed between them. However, he did not insist and allowed her to address him as she pleased.

After that, the World Cleansing Divine Water returned to Duan Ling Tian's Little World and sat cross-legged next to the Divine Tree of Life. In just an instant, it seemed like the Divine Tree of Life had grown stronger, causing Duan Ling Tian to feel amazed.

Following that, Duan Ling Tian looked at the supreme powerhouses in the distance silently.

The three supreme powerhouses from the Misty Rain World kneeled in the air without any hesitation.

"Congratulations on entering the seventh level, my lord!"

"Congratulations, my lord!"

Initially, the two supreme powerhouses from the Jade Mountain Realm only planned to bow and congratulate Duan Ling Tian. However, since the trio had kneeled down, they had no choice but to follow suit while they cursed the trio inwardly as bootlickers.

"I'm He Shan from the Jade Mountain World. Congratulations on reaching the seventh level, my lord."

"I'm Qiu Ming from the Jade Mountain World. Congratulations on reaching the seventh level, my lord."

'Two level-five supreme powerhouses?'

Duan Ling Tian extended his Divine Consciousness and quickly confirmed the duo's cultivation base, feeling slightly surprised. At the same time, he found the Jade Mountain World slightly familiar. After a moment, he recalled that the Jade Mountain World was one of the 18 Middle Worlds and that it was as famous as the God Defying World. He also remembered hearing that the Misty Rain World was one of the Lower Worlds governed by the Jade Mountain World. As such, he no longer wondered why two supreme powerhouses from the Jade Mountain World were here.

A complicated feeling rose in Duan Ling Tian's heart as he looked at the two level-five supreme powerhouses kneeling in front of him.

The duo were imminent World supreme powerhouses in the Myriad Worlds. Their status was equal to that of Xiao Mu Bai, one of the Lords of the God Defying World. In the Outer Boundary, their status was equal to demi Saints like Duan You Wei from the Duan clan that was governed by the Jade Tide Heavenly Mansion in the Sacred Lightning Realm. Whether it was Xiao Mu Bai or Duan You Wei, they were both powerful in Duan Ling Tian's eyes in the past. When he stood in front of them in the past, he could vaguely feel a sense of oppression.

Now that these two people who were comparable to Xiao Mu Bai and Duan You Wei were kneeling in front of him respectfully, it was only natural that he felt complicated. This feeling only grew stronger when he realized that he could easily kill them with just a wave of his hand.

After a moment, Duan Ling Tian looked at the duo from the Jade Mountain World and asked expressionlessly, "What's the situation like at the Heaven Traversing Pagoda? Do both of you know anything?"

The duo was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. Then, one of them replied honestly, "My lord, after the Heaven Traversing Pagoda appeared, Lord Feng from the God Defying World has been standing guard there, preventing level-six supreme powerhouses from the Myriad Worlds and the Outer Boundary from entering the pagoda. He has said that he'll kill whoever dares to enter the pagoda. For this reason, no one has entered the pagoda yet even though it has appeared for a while now."

Duan Ling Tian nodded slightly upon hearing these words. This was within his expectations. With his master's temperament, he had long speculated that his master would not just stand aside and do nothing with how unfair heaven was to them.

'As expected, master didn't change at all; he's still the same…'

If Duan Ling Tian were in Feng Qing Yang's shoes, he would have done the same as well. After all, they relied on themselves and broke into the seventh level. Now that heaven was essentially giving a shortcut to the others, how could he be willing? Heaven was clearly targeting them.

After a moment, a thought suddenly appeared in Duan Ling Tian's mind, and his eyes shone with killing intent immediately. He had thought about the Azure Cloud Saint Sect and the Fu clan in the Outer Boundary's Sacred Lightning Realm.

When Duan Ling Tian calmed down, he decided to return to the God Defying World first to see Ke'er. After that, he would return to the Sacred Lightning Realm in the Outer Boundary to avenge Duan You Wei. He planned to annihilate the Fu clan that was governed by the Azure Cloud Saint Sect. In the past, the demi Saint from the Fu clan had joined forces with another two people to kill Duan You Wei. At that time, he had vowed to avenge her once he had grown stronger to repay her kindness to him.
