Chapter 3899: Helpless

“Simulate the energy of a Lord of Gods?” Duan Ling Tian was rendered speechless by Mi Xuan’s imagination.

Then, Duan Ling Tian silently raised his hand. The Divine Energy of a rudimentary Lord of Gods, imbued with the law of space, swept out immediately and sent Mi Xuan flying. It was not a killing strike; it was just to show Duan Ling Tian that he was a real rudimentary Lord of Gods. He had no intention of killing Mi Xuan now. After all, Mi Xuan was occupying Feng Qing Yang’s body. Moreover, he could not push Mi Xuan too hard. There was a possibility that when cornered, Mi Xuan might do something drastic to his master’s body or soul.

Bang!

Following that, Duan Ling Tian casually punched the void before him, leaving a huge black hole behind. It took a long time before the hole was completely mended. This was a testament to his terrifying strength.

Gods, who were top powerhouses in the Devata Realms, could also punch a hole in the void, but the hole would mend very quickly.

Duan Ling Tian’s feat was only possible if one was at least a Lord of Gods.

‘He’s really a Lord of Gods!’ Mi Xuan’s expression changed drastically. His face was ashen as he stammered, “You, you… How did you do it? How, how did you become a Lord of Gods in less than 100 years?! You haven’t even attained godhood at that time!”

Mi Xuan was thoroughly shocked. He thought he was lucky enough that he was able to become an intermediate Lord of Gods from an advanced King of Gods in less than 100 years. He had devoured all the members of the Phantom Clan to raise his cultivation base. After devouring everyone from the Phantom Clan and becoming a rudimentary Lord of Gods, he ran into a fortuitous encounter later on in the Land of Dead. It was all thanks to the fortuitous encounter that he was able to become an intermediate Lord of Gods. After that, he reigned supreme in the Land of the Dead.

Mi Xuan would not have left the Land of the Dead if Wu Hong Qing, the Temple Master of the main Title Temple, did not come looking for him, telling him that Feng Qing Yang had returned from the Asura Hell. He had been shocked to discover Feng Qing Yang had become an advanced King of Gods after he arrived in the Solitary Destructive Heaven. In the past, Feng Qing Yang was just a rudimentary King of Gods, after all. Hence, he concluded that Feng Qing Yang must have had a fortuitous encounter in the Asura Hell as well. He was even more convinced when he thought about how Feng Qing Yang could enter and leave the Asura Hell, one of the seven deadliest places in the Devata Realms, as though it was his backyard.

Although Mi Xuan was now an intermediate Lord of Gods, he still did not dare to recklessly enter the Asura Hell. After all, there were many instances of Lords of Gods disappearing after entering the Asura Hell.

Considering all things, Mi Xuan had to admit Feng Qing Yang’s achievements were truly shocking. However, he did not expect that Feng Qing Yang’s disciple would be even more shocking! It was hard for him to believe that the purple-clad young man in front of him was just a Celestial Emperor about 100 years ago. If it were not for the fact that souls like him did not sleep, he would have thought he was dreaming.

While Mi Xuan had yet to recover from his shock, Duan Ling Tian mobilized his Soul Energy and imbued it with the law of space before he flew over and said, “Master, let me help you cast Mi Xuan’s soul out of your body!”

Duan Ling Tian intended to injure Mi Xuan’s soul with a soul attack before casting Mi Xuan’s soul out of Feng Qing Yang’s body.

However, before Duan Ling Tian’s attack landed, Mi Xuan quickly protected himself with his Soul Energy. His soul was not as strong as Mi Xuan; Mi Xuan was an intermediate Lord of Gods, after all.

Nonetheless, Duan Ling Tian’s Soul Energy that had been imbued with the law of space made Mi Xuan’s heart tremble. To be precise, he was frightened by Duan Ling Tian’s comprehension of the law of space. Most Lord of Gods did not have such profound comprehension of the law.

‘Is he a monster? Not only did he become a Lord of Gods in less than 100 years, but his comprehension has improved to such a terrifying degree!’

Currently, Mi Xuan has only comprehended all the triple Fused Profundities and was only beginning to comprehend the quadruple Fused Profundities. He knew Duan Ling Tian’s comprehension of the law was far superior to his.

Boom!

The collision of two Soul Energies made both their souls tremble.

Mi Xuan quickly said, “Duan Ling Tian, your comprehension of the law is indeed superior to mine. However, no matter what, my cultivation base is higher than yours. As a member of the Phantom Clan, I’m adept at all soul techniques. Although your attack is powerful, it’s not enough to hurt me! I advise you to stop acting rashly. Otherwise, even if I die, I’ll drag Feng Qing Yang with me!”

“Don’t you dare!”

Duan Ling Tian’s expression changed slightly. The earlier collision also made him realize that Mi Xuan’s Soul Energy was no weaker than his.

Mi Xuan sneered. “Don’t test me. Even a cornered dog would bite! Do you think I’m worse than animals?”

“Indeed. In my eyes, you’re worse than animals,” Duan Ling Tian said coldly, “Mi Xuan, leave my master’s body, and I’ll spare your life until the next time we meet.”

“Do you think I’m afraid of you?”

“I’ll go to the Phantom Clan and kill everyone… At that time, you’ll know how to feel afraid,” Duan Ling Tian said threateningly.

Upon hearing these words, Mi Xuan laughed. “That’ll only be a waste of time! I’ve already killed everyone in the Phantom Clan. Well, not everyone, I’m still alive, after all.”

Duan Ling Tian, Meng Luo, Elder Huo, and the others were stunned by Mi Xuan’s admission. No one expected that he would kill his clansmen.

Mi Xuan continued to say, “Otherwise, why do you think I broke through and became a Lord of Gods so quickly? I still remember the taste of their souls. They’re truly delicious! It’s a pity I won’t be able to taste them again…”

Mi Xuan licked his lips after he finished speaking.

Duan Ling Tian’s expression was dark as he said, “You even killed your clansmen?”

“They weren’t just my clansmen. They were also nourishing food…” Mi Xuan said without any remorse. A bright smile could be seen on his face when he spoke.

At this moment, Mi Xuan suddenly froze. Then, his expression eased, and his gaze softened.

“Little Tian…”

Clearly, Feng Qing Yang had regained control of his body at this moment.

Duan Ling Tian was very familiar with the temperament of the person in front of him. His eyes flashed with excitement as he called out, “Master!”

Apart from his family and friends, Feng Qing Yang was the most important person to Duan Ling Tian. After all, Feng Qing Yang had guided him and helped him a lot. To him, Feng Qing Yang was not only his master, but his father as well.

Feng Qing Yang smiled and said, “Amazing! In less than 100 years, you’ve become a Lord of Gods! Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. Mi Xuan won’t harm me easily. If he kills me, I guarantee he would only be able to live for another 1,000 years at most. Let me deal with him.”

Then, Feng Qing Yang looked at Meng Luo, Elder Huo, and the others before he said, “All of you should wait for me in the Solitary Destructive Heaven. I’ll be back soon.”

“Yes, Lord Heavenly Emperor!” Elder Huo and the others replied in unison. They trusted Feng Qing Yang unconditionally.

On the contrary, Duan Ling Tian frowned slightly. He felt truly helpless. If his true body was here, he could continue to fight Mi Xuan. Needless to say, his doppelganger’s Soul Energy was not enough. The doppelganger could recover Divine Energy by absorbing the Heaven and Spirit Energy, but it was not the case for Soul Energy. Only his soul could recover Soul Energy, and his soul was naturally in his true body.

Feng Qing Yang looked at Duan Ling Tian and smiled, “Little Tian, when I return, you have to tell me how you became a Lord of Gods in such a short time. By the way, you should bring your family and friends back from the mundane realm. The cultivation environment here is great. As long as the spatial passages to the Realms of Gods remain close, no one can threaten you in the Devata Realms. As for those gods in the seven deadliest places, they have very little interest in the Devata Realms. Moreover, the cultivation environment there is better for them. For all these reasons, they won’t come to Devata Realms without good reasons.”

As soon as Feng Qing Yang finished speaking, he stiffened briefly. Then, his gaze turned piercing, and his expression turned gloomy.

“How long-winded… Are all humans so long-winded?”

After saying that, Mi Xuan looked at Duan Ling Tian for a moment before he left.

Duan Ling Tian could only watch helplessly as Mi Xuan left. He thought to himself, feeling extremely frustrated, ‘If I had come with my true body, he won’t be able to leave!’
