Chapter 588: Advanced Lightning Force
Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytor Editor: Jay
Along with the appearance of Mo Xuan, the Young Genius Competition of Darkstone Empire was approaching its end.
Mo Xuan had deterred everyone with his third level Void Initiation Stage cultivation and third level Lightning Concept, and he caused all the nine young geniuses on the nine combat rings to not dare challenge him.
"Since it’s like this, then the Young Genius Competition this time has come to an end… The number one young genius of Darkstone Empire is Mo Xuan!" King Yong stood up once more, and his voice was like explosive thunder as it spread out into the distance.
"The other nine great combat ring masters will obtain the qualifications to head to the Darkhan Dynasty and participate in the competition for the positions in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties… All nine of you and Mo Xuan, gather at the Imperial Palace three days from now!"
"At that time, the Imperial Family will bestow all of you with rewards." King Yong finished speaking in one go.
Subsequently, King Yong once again ascended the palanquin, and then the eight Void Prying Stage martial artists carried up the palanquin and escorted King Yong to leave.
"Long live King Yong!" The people present spoke respectfully, and they sent off King Yong with their gazes until his palanquin vanished behind the clouds and mist in the horizon.
The Young Genius Competition had come to a close at this point.
"Hmph!" On the high platform, the representative of the Bazho Imperial Kingdom, Wei Kun, snorted coldly before leaving with the other representatives.
This time, their Bazho Imperial Kingdom could be said to be unique.
They were the only Imperial Kingdom present where all five young geniuses had fallen in battle.
"Chi Ming, our Bazho Imperial Kingdom will remember what happened today." Before he left, Wei Kun didn’t forget to threaten Chi Ming.
"Do as you wish." Chi Ming didn’t take Wei Kun’s words seriously.
Meanwhile, the black clothed of Mo Xuan who was high above in the air fluttered, and he intended to leave.
"Mo Xuan!" Duan Ling Tian looked at Mo Xuan and sent a voice transmission.
Instantly, Mo Xuan’s figure stopped moving, and his eyes that were dim and devoid of light flanked indifferently at Duan Ling Tian before he asked via voice transmission. "Do you need something?"
Mo Xuan’s tone contained slight impatience.
"I want to make a trade with you!" Duan Ling Tian went straight to the point.
"Trade?" Mo Xuan was stunned before asking via voice transmission. "Void Fuse Fruit?"
"You know?" Duan Ling Tian was surprised, as he never expected Mo Xuan would be able to guess his intentions.
"Hmph!" Mo Xuan grunted coldly. "There were no less than 20 people before you that were interested in that Void Fuse Fruit… But, the things they gave weren’t enough arouse my interest."
Duan Ling Tian came to a sudden understanding.
Right, it was common knowledge that the Void Fuse Fruit was useless to Mo Xuan.
Because of that, there was surely many people that wanted to trade for it and obtain the Void Fuse Fruit from Mo Xuan.
Obviously, no one was able to pay a price that could arouse Mo Xuan’s interest.
"The Void Fuse Fruit is indeed not of any great use to me… But, if you’re unable to take out something that’s able to arouse my interest, then I rather the Void Fuse Fruit decay in my hand than give it to anyone." Mo Xuan spoke indifferently.
Duan Ling Tian smiled confidently, and he spoke straightforwardly. "Grade four spirit weapon, how about it?"
"Grade four spirit weapon?" Mo Xuan’s pupils constricted when he heard Duan Ling Tian, and he glanced at Duan Ling Tian with slight astonishment before saying. "You… have a grade four spirit weapon?"
"I can provide a grade four spirit sword that provides an amplification of 58% in exchange for the Void Fuse Fruit in your possession… How about it?" Duan Ling Tian asked directly.
"Are you sure you want to use a grade four spirit sword to exchange for the Void Fuse Fruit?" Even though Mo Xuan’s voice transmission was still calm, Duan Ling Tian was able to sense traces of excitement.
Obviously, Mo Xuan’s interest had been aroused.
"Yes. Are you willing?" Duan Ling Tian nodded.
"Alright! Three days from now, if you’re able to produce a grade four spirit sword to exchange with me, then I’ll give you the Void Fuse Fruit." Mo Xuan agreed.
To Mo Xuan, his strength and natural talent wasn’t inferior to the numerous young geniuses of the Darkhan Dynasty.
But those extremely outstanding young geniuses in the Darkhan Dynasty more or less possessed a grade four spirit weapon to rely on, whereas he didn’t.
If he were to go against those young geniuses from Darkhan Dynasty, then he would undoubtedly suffer a loss from this.
So he’d already wanted to obtain a grade four spirit weapon.
Unfortunately, even in the entire Darkstone Empire, there was only a single grade four spirit weapon, and it was possessed by the Imperial Family.
Supposedly, it was in King Yong’s possession.
Now, he had the opportunity to obtain a grade four spirit weapon, and it was even exchanged for with that Void Fuse Fruit, so he naturally wouldn’t refuse.
After he glanced deeply at Duan Ling Tian. Mo Xuan transformed into a black bolt of lightning that vanished before the eyes of everyone.
Meanwhile, the young geniuses on the nine combat rings walked off the combat rings.
"Duan Ling Tian, Su Li, congratulations!" Luo Zhan and Chen Shao Shuai congratulated Duan Ling Tian and Su Li.
Duan Ling Tian replied with a light smile, whereas Su Li instead sighed. "I heard long ago that the number one young expert in the Darkstone Empire possessed an extremely extraordinary strength… Now that I’ve seen him today, he really does deserve his reputation!"
Obviously, Su Li was speaking of Mo Xuan.
"Su Li, there’s another two more years to the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties… At that time, you might not be unable to surpass him." Duan Ling Tian glanced at Su Li with a deeply meaningful gaze, and then he smiled.
Su Li shook his head and smiled when he discerned the meaning contained in Duan Ling Tian’s gaze.
He was naturally able to discern that there was meaning concealed within Duan Ling Tian’s words, but he was confident in being able to chase up to Mo Xuan in another two years.
"You two are both freaks!" Chen Shao Shuai rolled his eyes at Su Li and Duan Ling Tian, and then he sighed. "I and Luo Zhan have already decided that after we leave the Darkstone Empire’s Imperial City this time, we won’t return to the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom first, but instead go wander about for some time…"
"Yes." Luo Zhan nodded, and his eyes were filled with yearning. "Perhaps, we’ll be able to obtain good fortune that belongs to us… Otherwise, if we continue to stay within the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom and shut ourselves out from the outside world, then it’s bound to be impossible for us to chase up to the two of you in our entire lifetimes."
Luo Zhan and Chen Shao Shuai making such a decision had exceeded Duan Ling Tian’s expectations.
But Duan Ling Tian supported them.
If flowers within a greenhouse don’t experience that battering of the wind and rain, then its accomplishments were bound to be limited.
This was something that he felt deeply about.
"I’m slightly anticipating the scene when I see both of you in the future…" Duan Ling Tian smiled.
"Duan Ling Tian!" Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian heard Chi Ming’s voice.
Subsequently, he saw Prince Sheng and Chi Ming coming over side by side.
"Vice Dean Chi Ming." Duan Ling Tian lightly smiled to Chi Ming, as for Prince Sheng, Duan Ling Tian directly disregarded him.
"Duan Ling Tian, Prince Sheng has something he wants to tell you." Chi Ming lightly smiled as he spoke.
"Hmm?" Duan Ling Tian was stunned, and then he looked at Prince Sheng.
"Duan Ling Tian!" Prince Sheng looked at Duan Ling Tian with a flickering gaze, and then he took a deep breath before saying. "In the past, there were perhaps some misunderstandings between the two of us… I hope that after this, we can write off the matters between the two of us, and completely let bygones be bygones. How about it?"
Prince Sheng’s words were spoken with an extremely depressed feeling.
Although not much sincerity could be perceived from it, Duan Ling Tian still couldn’t help but be shocked.
Who was Prince Sheng?
The brother of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom’s Emperor, the owner of the Prince Sheng’s Estate, and he was also an existence at the Void Initiation Stage.
Now such an existence had given in before him?
"Duan Ling Tian, Prince Sheng is extremely sincere." When he saw Duan Ling Tian seeming to be slightly hesitant, Chi Ming interrupted.
Duan Ling Tian smiled lightly. "Since Vice Dean Chi has spoke out as well… Then I naturally have no objections towards this matter."
"Prince Sheng, all the matters between the two of us are written off at this moment!" Duan Ling Tian said to Prince Sheng right after he finished speaking to Chi Ming.
He and Prince Sheng couldn’t be considered to possess any deep or great enmity, so since Chi Ming had spoken on Prince Sheng’s behalf, he had no choice but to give Chi Ming face.
Of course, if Prince Sheng was only deceiving him for a time and did anything that was harmful to him in the future, then he would absolutely not show mercy.
Prince Sheng nodded, and he heaved a sigh of relief as if a heavy weight was lifted off his shoulder.
Duan Ling Tian’s advancement gave him too great pressure. So after considering it for a while, he still chose to put down his dignity and take the initiative to seek for peace with Duan Ling Tian.
Otherwise, in the near future, he and the Prince Sheng’s Estate would probably completely vanish from this world.
This was something that he had a strong premonition of.
"Duan Ling Tian!"
"Both of you ought to be the representatives of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, right?"
"Su Li!"
"Long Yun!"
…
Waves of clamorous voices sounded out in the surroundings of Duan Ling Tian’s group.
Only now did they notice that they’d been surrounded by many people.
Duan Ling Tian’s group hurriedly soared into the sky and left as if they were fleeing.
"I still have three days of time… I hope I can comprehend Advanced Lightning Force in these three days." After he returned to the courtyard, Duan Ling Tian started cultivating to his utmost ability.
At the rear courtyard, a row of wooden figures was placed there, and they were precisely provided for martial artists to use when cultivating.
Now, Duan Ling Tian was standing before these wooden figures.
Whoosh!
With a raise of his hand, he pointed out, and his Advanced Wind Force and Half-step Advanced Lightning force swept out.
As for Origin Energy, Duan Ling Tian had intentionally suppressed it.
Otherwise, these wooden figures would directly be blasted into powder by him.
On the first day, Duan Ling Tian carefully savored the things he comprehended from the third level Lightning Concept on Mo Xuan’s body, yet he was unable to urge his Lightning Force to break through.
On the second day, he was barely able to touch the threshold, yet he was still slightly lacking.
On the third day, Duan Ling Tian smoothly broke through.
Whirlwind!
In the rear courtyard, Duan Ling Tian’s movements were like the wind as he flashed out.
Since he comprehended Advanced Wind Force, the high grade Earth Rank movement technique, Whirlwind, that he cultivated had smoothly stepped into the Perfection Stage.
The speed of Whirlwind at the Perfection Stage was astonishing.
Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian suddenly raised his hand.
Whoosh!
He pointed out, then a strand of Origin Energy that had condensed into shape shot out, and it contained both Advanced Wind Force and Advanced Lightning Force within it.
The Tempest Point energy easily entered one of the wooden figures in the rear courtyard, and it hit right on the head of the wooden figure.
Bang!
After the Tempest Point energy entered into it, it abruptly exploded.
Starting from the head, the entire wooden figure transformed into powder.
A wooden figure that was standing there just a moment ago had vanished at this moment.
"Tempest Point can be considered to have officially stepped into the Perfection Stage as well…" Duan Ling Tian’s face revealed a brilliant smile.
Presently, the two types of Force he’d comprehended had stepped into the Advanced Stage.
To him, this was a great gain.
"I hope I can advance the two Advanced Forces into Concept as soon as possible… At that time, when I utilize both my Concepts, it would be the strength of two ancient horned dragons!" When he thought up to here, Duan Ling Tian’s heart couldn’t help but surge.
It was as if he’d already seen the scene of him executing the Tempest Point with Wind Concept and Lightning Concept.
