, wonderful and free of pop-ups! The fact that the Ouyang family was wiped out only made Duan Lingtian a little surprised and surprised, and he soon put the matter behind him.
However, the next thing made him feel very bad.
"That Huang Cheng disappeared without a trace after leaving his post without permission?"
The thing that Duan Lingtian least wanted to happen happened.
The outer elder of the Yueyao Sect, Huang Cheng, who originally wanted to kill him, actually chose to leave the Yueyao Sect after the attempt to kill him failed.
"He must have been worried that after I left, I would go back to Yueyao Sect and even tell Senior Brother Baili that he wanted to kill me."
Duan Lingtian is almost certain of this.
Although Huang Cheng is only an outer sect elder, he can easily kill his senior brother 'Bai Lihong' at any time if he is willing.
You don't even have to do it yourself.
The days after Duan Lingtian returned to Yueyao Sect were not peaceful, at least not peaceful around him.
Just because, with the news that Ouyang's family was wiped out, the news that he had broken through to the 'Sacred Realm' also swept through like a hurricane, spreading throughout the entire Yueyao Sect and shocking the entire Yueyao Sect.
"Oh my God! Someone tell me, this is fake news!"
Many inner disciples wailed.
These inner disciples were all those who had witnessed Duan Lingtian's defeat of 'He Zhong' and had investigated Duan Lingtian's cultivation in the process.
They were all sure that when Duan Lingtian defeated He Zhong, he was indeed just a martial arts practitioner in the Small Perfection realm.
However, how long has passed before Duan Lingtian has already reached the 'Sacred Realm'?
"Could it be that Elder Baili gave him some miraculous medicine and heaven and earth fruit?"
"I have never heard of any miraculous medicine or heaven and earth spiritual fruit that can allow a person to achieve a breakthrough from the Small Perfection Realm of Transcendence to the Saint Realm in just a few months!"
"Is that Duan Lingtian really a normal human being? Why do I feel like he is the incarnation of a god?"
"Don't make it more outrageous...maybe he has some adventure."
…
In any case, the news about Duan Lingtian's breakthrough to the 'Sacred Realm' is a definite fact.
When Duan Lingtian showed his strength in entering the Saint Realm, not only many inner disciples of the Yueyao Sect were present, but also many people from the other eight major sects were present, so there was no way he could fake it.
For a time, the entire Yueyao Sect was completely boiling because of Duan Lingtian.
If the Yueyao Sect before Duan Lingtian came here was a pool of stagnant water... then, now, Duan Lingtian has brought this pool of stagnant water to life.
"Junior Brother, have you... broken through to the Saint Realm?"
Bailihong, who had just heard the news, was also shocked and stunned.
Although some news spread outside said that it was because of him that Duan Lingtian's cultivation level improved so quickly and so exaggeratedly... However, only he himself knew that it was not his fault at all.
He doesn't have that ability yet.
"Um."
Facing Bai Lihong's inquiry, Duan Lingtian smiled and nodded.
For a moment, Bai Lihong also smiled bitterly with complicated eyes for a long time, "Junior brother, I thought that your talent in the holy pattern was enough to scare people, but I didn't expect that your talent in martial arts is also so evil... No! This is He is no longer a monster, he should be said to be 'against the heavens'!"
In just a few months, he has made a breakthrough from the Small Consummation Realm of Transcendence to the Holy Realm. Such an advancement is unparalleled!
Only Duan Lingtian knew that he had achieved such a big breakthrough in just a few months.
Although his talent is good, it is more because of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
The extremely slow flow of time in the Qibao Exquisite Pagoda provided him with a cultivation environment that was unimaginable to ordinary people, allowing him to catch up with others or even surpass others in the shortest possible time.
"Junior brother, now that you have broken through to the 'Sacred Realm', you can already engrave the two-star holy pattern, right?"
Bailihong asked.
"Um."
Duan Lingtian nodded. When he first came back, he tried to engrave the two-star holy pattern. After failing several times, he succeeded.
"Can it be engraved with a trick pattern?"
Bailihong's eyes lit up and he asked.
"After I came back, I only deduced the method of engraving the two-star sacred pattern using the trick pattern, but I haven't really practiced it or tried it yet."
Duan Lingtian said.
"Am I lucky enough to observe?"
Bailihong asked with a smile.
"No problem at all."
Duan Lingtian agreed immediately, and at the same time began to try to use the trick pattern method to inscribe the 'two-star holy pattern' in front of Bailihong.
The materials needed to engrave sacred patterns using the trick pattern technique are less than half of those required by the orthodox technique.
After several experiments, Duan Lingtian finally successfully carved a 'two-star holy pattern' using the trick pattern technique.
The materials consumed are less than half of the orthodox holy pattern inscription method, which saves more than half of the cost.
"Junior Brother Duan, you are really a genius with the sacred pattern!"
Bailihong couldn't help but sigh when he saw Duan Lingtian carving the two-star holy pattern so quickly using the trick technique.
"I was originally thinking about how to persuade you to focus on the holy pattern... Now it seems that it is not necessary. Because whether it is your achievements in martial arts or your achievements in the holy pattern, they are very popular. Achievable.”
"Ordinary people may not be able to reach the peak of martial arts and holy patterns at the same time, but you can't."
In his words, Bai Lihong was full of confidence in Duan Lingtian, almost blind confidence.
"Senior brother, I am going to sign up to take the inner disciple examination... When will the inner disciple examination start?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Junior brother, with your current strength, it doesn't make much sense to take the inner disciple assessment... I'll just send someone over to get you an inner disciple identity token."
Bailihong said.
Duan Lingtian thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.
With his current strength, even beings in the late stages of the Saint Realm do not pose much of a threat to him.
Therefore, he did not refuse Bailihong's kindness.
"Junior brother, I remember you promised me that when you enter the inner gate one day, you will live here."
Bailihong said with narrowed eyes.
"of course I remember."
Duan Lingtian nodded and smiled: "If senior brother doesn't dislike it, then from now on, I will stay with you."
"Haha... Okay! I have had your room prepared for you a long time ago, and it will be cleaned every once in a while. You can move in directly."
After receiving Duan Lingtian's approval, Bailihong laughed and seemed very happy.
Hearing Bai Lihong's words, Duan Lingtian was moved and felt extremely warm.
"By the way. Did your trip to Hanhe City go well this time?"
Bailihong asked.
He knew nothing about what happened on Duan Lingtian's way to Hanhe City or what happened after he went to Hanhe City, because he hadn't had time to ask Duan Lingtian.
Even before that, he didn't even know that Duan Lingtian had left Yueyao Sect.
However, he did not blame Duan Lingtian because he knew the 'reason' why Duan Lingtian did what he did. It was simply that he did not want to trouble him and make him worry.
Duan Lingtian has long regarded Bailihong as his 'brother', although the age gap between the two is a bit exaggerated.
Therefore, he did not hide anything about his experiences along the way and told Bailihong one by one.
Of course, he downplayed the dangerous aspects.
However, even so, De Bailihong was still frightened.
"Huang Cheng, a mere outer sect elder dares to be greedy for you and wants to kill you... you deserve to die! Don't worry, junior brother, I will mobilize my network to find out Huang Cheng and bring him to you In front of you, it’s up to you to do whatever you want!”
Bailihong was angry, really angry.
If at the beginning, he looked at Duan Lingtian in a different light just because Duan Lingtian could inherit the 'Art of Strange Patterns', and even considered Duan Lingtian as his 'junior brother'.
So, now, he has already regarded Duan Lingtian as his junior brother.
Not only because he is the one who inherited the 'Art of Strange Patterns', but also because his character is very suitable for his temper.
When he was with Duan Lingtian, he even felt as if he had found a 'friend whom he has never forgotten.'
When he learned that Duan Lingtian almost died in Huang Cheng's hands, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.
"Senior brother, calm down. For me, Huang Cheng is nothing to worry about."
Duan Lingtian smiled lightly and said confidently.
He was really confident in what he said.
With his current strength, he may not be able to compete head-on with Huang Cheng, but as long as he is given some time, he will definitely be able to surpass Huang Cheng in all aspects.
The cultivation environment on the third floor of the Qibao Exquisite Tower is not comparable to that on the second floor, and it is enough to help him soar into the sky!
"The man in black robe at the back, if I guess correctly, should be the killer of Yinshan Black Market."
Soon, Bailihong said with a solemn expression: "Fortunately you met a noble person, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
Duan Lingtian also spoke out about the black-robed killer.
However, he omitted the part about the 'Demon-Sealing Monument', and only said that it was a strong man who happened to be passing by. Seeing an injustice on the road, he wiped out the black-robed man with the back of his hand.
"Yes, luckily I met that noble man... It's a pity that when I asked that noble man his name and where he was from, he didn't respond and left directly."
Duan Lingtian sighed, it really seemed like that was the case.
Naturally, Bailihong would not doubt Duan Lingtian's words, and nodded and said: "That noble man...either is a strong hermit, who usually lives in seclusion in our nine sect alliance area, and lives in simplicity; or, he comes from a certain That force is at least on the same level as our Yueyao Sect."
"Listening to your account, the man in black robe who wanted to kill you should be a 'Three-Star Killer' in the Yinshan Black Market... And that noble man was able to kill him with the palm of his hand, which shows that he is not an ordinary Saint Realm expert. ."
When Bailihong talked about it later, his eyes showed a bit of gratitude, gratitude to that 'noble man'.
In the inner gate area, in a spacious mansion, after learning that Duan Lingtian not only returned safely, but also broke through to the 'Sacred Realm', Liu Huan was so angry that his face became gloomy and he was speechless for a long time.
"Impossible! Impossible! He can't be alive!"
Taking a deep breath, Liu Huan murmured, with a look of disbelief on his face.
