Chapter 3648: The Mystery of the Deaths of the Death Warriors

The old man could not react in time to Duan Ling Tians sudden attack. He had assumed he could strike preemptively and gain the upper hand, easily killing Duan Ling Tian. He did not expect the void would twist and ripple, devouring his attacks. It was as though Duan Ling Tian had full control over the space around them. It took him a while to discover he had indeed entered the range of the space Duan Ling Tian controlled. He found that his body was no longer under his control. He could only watch with a shred of his Divine Consciousness as his physical body was destroyed. Before he could even figure out what was happening, he had died.

Your strength isnt bad. Youre just unlucky that your opponent is me. After all, even the top five strongest Ten Stars students arent a match for you, Duan Ling Tian said as he shook his head and put away the old mans divine artifact.

The old man was much stronger than the death warriors he had killed earlier. If he did not cast one of the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth, he would have a hard time killing the old man. Of course, he could have killed the old man easily if he had cast his quadruple Fused Profundity. However, that was one of his trump cards.

The old man could barely react to Duan Ling Tians sudden attack. He thought he could preemptively attack Duan Ling Tian and killed him easily. However, he never expected a terrifying space turbulence would appear and devoured his attack as he approached Duan Ling Tian. It was as if Duan Ling Tian had full control over whatever and whoever within that space.

The old man had entered Duan Ling Tians space territory before he could even react. The next moment, he realized his body was out of control. His Divine Consciousness watched as his physical body shattered into pieces before his spirit and Divine Consciousness gradually were destroyed... The old man could not figure out what had happened even moments before his death.

Your strength level is not bad, however, unfortunately, Im your opponent today. Duan Ling Tian shook his head after he put away the old mans divine artifact. If the ten-star students of the Hidden Fog Sect come across him, even the top five strongest students would never survive against this old man...

The old man was much stronger than the Death Soldiers Duan Ling Tian had killed earlier. It would be difficult for him to kill the old man without using one of the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth, unless he used four Fused Profundities against him. However, that was Duan Ling Tians secret weapon. Compared to the Mastery Dao, the risk of exposure of using a quadruple Fused Profundity was higher. After all, even if someone was secretly observing his fight, they would likely mistake his Mastery Dao as a special technique he cultivated. Moreover, the Mastery Dao would catch his opponent off guard and swiftly kill his opponent before his opponent could send a message out.

What a pity! Another self-destructive spatial ring. Based on his strength, the things in his ring are likely more valuable than the others, Duan Ling Tian said with a sigh.

Following that, he continued to search for his enemies.

Over the past few days, Duan Ling Tian found another three suspicious people. They all possessed the same killing intent as those he had killed.

They must be death warriors from the Zhong clan as well...

After another two days had passed.

The Zhong clan must have only sent 17 death warriors here... Duan Ling Tian muttered inwardly.

The Zhong clan was likely the only king-rank force in Skywind City who would send so many death warriors after him.

Duan Ling Tian decided to start hunting and killing monsters again after not finding anyone for two days. Killing the monsters was like a walk in the park for him. With just a slash of his sword, he could easily kill them. With that, his points continued to rise swiftly.

His true capabilities would be exposed if the old man had the slightest opportunity to inform his peers before Duan Ling Tian killed him. Hence, Duan Ling Tian decided to use the Mastery Dao against the old man because nobody could easily tell even if he was secretly watched. They might take it as a special method Duan Ling Tian had mastered. Moreover, the Mastery Daos sudden appearance would catch his opponent off guard and prevent him from sending out messages right before his death.

What a pity... He had the Self-destructive Spatial Ring as well... Based on his strength level, he must possess a lot of treasures, Duan Ling Tian sighed. Then, he continued to search around.

For the next few days, he came across three more suspicious people who possessed the same aura as the people he had killed for the past few days.

They must be the same group of people... If Im not mistaken, they must be from the Zhong Clan.

The Zhong Clan was the only king-rank force in the Skywind City that would send so many Death Soldiers after Duan Ling Tian after all.

It seems like the Zhong Clan had only sent 17 Death Soldiers.

After wandering for another two days, Duan Ling Tian finally left the area and continued his demon beast slaughtering journey. Killing the demon beasts in the training ground was a piece of cake for Duan Ling Tian, he could easily kill them with just a single slash of his sword! As a result, the points in his Points Accumulating Token continued to skyrocket.

The difference between our strength is too vast. Even if its Hong Jun, I can kill him with just a blow or two with my divine artifact using the same strength I used during our first battle...

In fact, the monsters in the trial grounds were not weak. Even the top five strongest Ten Stars students of the Hidden Fog Academy would have a difficult time killing some of the monsters on the trial grounds. After all, the Hidden Fog Sect had carefully selected monsters that would challenge the Ten Stars students.

Since Duan Ling Tian had just joined the Hidden Fog Academy, the Hidden Fog Sect naturally did not have the time to look for monsters that would challenge Duan Ling Tian.

The Zhong clans estate in Skywind City.

The main hall was packed with people despite the early hours.

Zhong Si, who had rushed back from one of the clans restaurants, asked Zhong San who was sitting next to the main seat, Third Brother, what happened? Why did you summon us here so urgently? Todays the day of the Ten Stars students trial, right? Dont tell me something happened to our death warrior?

Upon hearing these words, the high-ranking members of the Zhong clan looked at Zhong San anxiously, waiting for his answer.

Theyre all dead, Zhong San said grimly.

It was as silent as a graveyard at this moment. Everyone, including Zhong Si, was in shock and disbelief.

17 death warriors died? Moreover, one of them was one of three leaders of the death warriors. The leaders strength was on par with Zhong Sis, the Fourth Master of the Zhong clan.

When Zhong Si regained his senses, he asked in a grave tone, Did the Hidden Fog Academy kill them?

No. Zhong San shook his head. Elder Zhu Chun sent a message earlier. He had said that the dean has no intention of intervening; he sees this as a test of Duan Ling Tians strength. If Duan Ling Tian survives, hes considering making Duan Ling Tian an exception and letting him join the Hidden Fog Sect as a core disciple.

A core disciple?!

Is Duan Ling Tian talented enough to be a core disciple?

Why would the dean do such a thing?

Everyone was baffled by Zhong Sans words.

Since the founding of the sect, there were no more than 100 core disciples at a time in the Hidden Fog Sect. The core disciples were all under 10,000 years old and would no longer be considered core disciples after passing that age. However, from there, they would graduate to become a core elder of the sect. They could even choose to join the emperor-rank sect that the Hidden Fog Sect was under. Although they would have to start from the bottom ranks after joining the emperor-rank sect, the cultivation environment and resources were far superior to the Hidden Fog Sects. This was only natural due to the huge difference between a lord-rank force and an emperor-rank force.

For this reason, becoming a core disciple was a guarantee that one would be able to join an emperor-rank force in the future.

Let alone an emperor-rank force, the Zhong clan was already wary of a lord-rank sect like the Hidden Force Sect.

Impossible! He must have had help! How could he kill 17 death warriors, including Xue Er, on his own? Zhong Si exclaimed, filled with disbelief.

I agree, Zhong San said with a nod. Then, he said solemnly, If thats the case, this means someone is helping him. It seems like it wont be easy for us to kill him.

Who could it be? Zhong Si frowned.

Zhong San was lost in thoughts upon hearing this question. When he regained his senses, he said, Zhu Chun told me that Hou Qing Ning seems very keen to befriends Duan Ling Tian. A few days ago, the fifth elder of the 10,000 Leaves Sect, Chen Feng, whos stationed in Skywind City left his base for the trial grounds for the Ten Stars student...

The 10,000 Leaves Sect was also a king-rank force on par with the Zhong clan in Skywind City. Hou Qing Ning was the Young Master of the 10,000 Leaves Sect. To protect Hou Qing Ning, Chen Feng, an advanced god, was stationed at Skywind City.

10,000 Leaves Sect? Zhong Si frowned. He said frostily, Whats wrong with Hou Qing Ning? Is he unaware that the Zhong clan has conflicts with Duan Ling Tian? How dare he befriend Duan Ling Tian? Isnt he afraid of offending our Zhong clan?

Zhong San shook his head. Who knows?

What are we going to do if our death warriors are really killed by those from the 10,000 Leaves Sect? We cant just let the matter go, right? Zhong Si asked indignantly.

Of course, not. Zhong Sans eyes flashed coldly. Although the 10,000 Leaves Sect is on par with our clan, we wont let them get away with killing our men. Theyll have to pay for their actions!

At this moment, Zhong San suddenly frowned.

Whats wrong, Third Brother? Zhong Si asked upon seeing the change in Zhong Sans expression.

Zhong San said with a strange expression on his face, I just received a message. Chen Feng and his men returned to Skywind City before Xue Er died. However, Chen Feng is the only one from the 10,000 Leaves Sect capable of killing Xue Er...

A commotion broke out in the main hall of the Zhong clans estate immediately.

Does this mean the deaths of Xue Er and the death warriors have nothing to do with the 10,000 Leaves Sect?!

It cant be them!

Then who could it be? Did the death warriors from the other king-rank forces join forces to kill Xue Er?

Impossible. Our death warriors would have time to send messages back if that was the case. Our death warriors clearly died before they even had a chance to react!

While the people from the Zhong clan were still figuring out who killed their death warriors, various king-rank forces in Skywind City began to learn of the deaths of their death warriors.
