Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytor Editor: Jay
The 120 ancient mammoth silhouettes that had appeared suddenly changed into 80 plus in the blink of an eyes, then they slowly increased…
90 ancient mammoths.
100 ancient mammoths.
…
Ceaselessly fluctuating with a peak of 127 ancient mammoth silhouettes.
"Force Seed?" Duan Ling Tian’s pupils constricted, but when his gaze encountered the spirit whip in the hands of the City Governor’s daughter, he noticed instead that the Origin Energy flowing around the spirit whip seemed to have a strand of a strange fiery aura.
Duan Ling Tian was extremely familiar with this aura.
It was the aura of flames!
"Fire Force… It’s a Fire Force Seed!" Duan Ling Tian distinguished the ability that the City Governor’s daughter had utilized now.
In the next moment, Duan Ling Tian’s face sank.
He felt an enormous force pour into the spirit sword in his hand from the spirit whip, she was taking the initiative to attack and gain the advantage.
Quake Energy!
Even when Duan Ling Tian used Quake Energy in time, he was only able to neutralize a portion of the energy.
Whirlwind!
Following the direction of this energy, Duan Ling Tian stomped on the ground and flashed out like a gust of wind, then stood in the in the distance as he looked at the City Governor’s daughter from afar.
"If I knew she’d comprehended a Fire Force Seed, I would have utilized Quake Energy at the beginning…" Duan Ling Tian sighed inwardly, and he felt it was a slight pity.
Duan Ling Tian originally thought that even if he didn’t utilize Quake Energy, his strength was sufficient to crush this City Governor’s daughter.
But the facts proved that he’d underestimated the City Governor’s daughter.
The City Governor’s daughter was a genius in the Martial Dao that had comprehended a Fire Force Seed.
In terms of natural talent, she wasn’t inferior to him.
In terms of comprehension ability, she was the best amongst all the younger generation he’d met…
Even the Demonic Lotusblade Sect’s Saber Young Master from the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom was far inferior to her.
If Duan Ling Tian had utilized his Quake Energy at the limit when he struck out with his sword, he’d already have crushed the City Governor’s daughter and obtained the final victory.
Unfortunately, he didn’t utilize it.
Even when he utilized Quake Energy in time later on and neutralized a portion of the energy from the City Governor’s daughter, yet he was also unable to counter.
Increasing the Quake Energy to the limit required a process.
Earlier, there was utterly no time for Duan Ling Tian to gradually develop his Quake Energy to the limit.
On the Groom Search Competition arena, Duan Ling Tian and the City Governor’s daughter stood facing each other.
Origin Energy still raged and leaped about on the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword in Duan Ling Tian’s hand.
Above him, 1,210 lifelike ancient mammoth silhouettes accumulated force while waiting to be deployed.
Origin Energy similarly coiled around the spirit whip in the hands of the City Governor’s daughter.
Whereas above her, the number of ancient mammoth silhouettes fluctuated extremely unstably between 1,260 plus to 1,307.
Moreover, there was no indication that the Fire Force Seed would be die out.
"The Fire Force Seed of this City Governor’s daughter is practically at the peak of what is able to be comprehended by a Nascent Soul Stage martial artist… To a certain extent, she’s already able to completely control the Fire Force Seed, and it wouldn’t occasionally die out like the Saber Young Master’s Saber Force Seed." Duan Ling Tian thought in his heart, and he felt heartfelt admiration towards the City Governor’s daughter before him.
A 20 year old girl possessing such ability was simple monstrous!
Monstrous to the point it struck terror in the hearts of others.
When Duan Ling Tian stared at the City Governor’s daughter, she looked at him as well.
"Is it him?" The City Governor’s daughter’s pair of beautiful eyes emitted a trace of wonder, and besides that, it also concealed a trace of embarrassment that was similar to a young girl beginning to think about love.
Of course, this was something that Duan Ling Tian didn’t notice.
When Duan Ling Tian and the City Governor’s daughter stood apart in confrontation, the surroundings of the arena went into an uproar.
"I really never expected that this young man was a freak!"
"Yeah, I feel that his strength isn’t much inferior to the City Governor’s daughter…"
"But, his strength seems to still be inferior to the City Governor’s daughter."
"So what if it’s inferior? Could it be that you’ve forgotten that his strength was inferior to the City Governor’s daughter earlier, but he still forced her to retreat?"
…
For a time, numerous burning gazes descended onto Duan Ling Tian.
"Elder Kong, the strength of this little fellow seems to be slightly strange. Besides that, his Origin Energy seems to be able to produce some type of vibration with extremely high frequency, and the feeling it gives me is like…" The red clothed middle aged man’s firm face was covered in surprised.
"Demon beast, Wyrm Python!" The grey clothed old man continued the red clothed man’s words, and he had a serious expression.
"Exactly, it’s precisely the Wyrm Python… He actually mastered the Origin Energy utilization method of the Wyrm Python to defeat a stronger opponent, it’s truly shocking." The red clothed middle aged man sighed with emotion, and his words contained slight disbelief mixed within.
Perhaps, if he knew that the third form of the cultivation technique that Duan Ling Tian cultivated, the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, was the Wyrm Python Form, he wouldn’t think like this.
"The Young Miss isn’t a match for him." The grey clothed old man shook his head, and a strand of bright light flashed within his muddy eyes.
Even though there was an extremely great distance between them, he seemed as if he was able to clearly see the violet figure in the Groom Search Competition arena…
"You aren’t a match for me." On the arena, Duan Ling Tian looked at the City Governor’s daughter.
"Hmph! We’ll only know if I’m a match for you or not after I try." The City Governor’s daughter shouted out in a tender voice, her graceful and slender figure flashed out once again, seeming to have transformed into an enraged fire phoenix that wanted to burn Duan Ling Tian into ash…
Duan Ling Tian was able to perceive the rage within the words of the City Governor’s daughter.
"Flower Rain!" The City Governor’s daughter swung the grade five spirit whip in her hand, and the Flower Rain appeared once again to envelop Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian’s face became grim, yet he stood on the spot, not moving like a mountain.
Origin Energy lightly started trembling with a frequency that grew high and higher atop the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword in his hand.
Quake Energy at the limit!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
…
The whip images that covered the skies poured down, seeming to have transformed into swift droplets of rainwater that formed a heaven encompassing net that wanted to bind Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian made his move.
Sword Drawing Arts!
His sword swung out like a bolt of lightning, flashing straight towards the grade five spirit whip that was seen through and locked on by his Spiritual Force.
Dragon’s Finishing Touch!
The Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword drew an arc before swiftly stabbing out, and a piercing howl resounded out as it descended onto the spirit whip, breaking the martial skill of the City Governor’s daughter once again.
"Let go!" Duan Ling Tian shook his hand as he shouted out explosively, wanted to make the City Governor’s daughter let go of the spirit whip in time.
But he quickly noticed that the City Governor’s daughter actually had no intention of letting go…
In the end, Duan Ling Tian twisted the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword in his hand to disperse the Origin Energy of the City Governor’s daughter on the spirit whip, then his other hand flashed out to grab ahold of her hand before seizing the spirit whip and tossing it aside.
"This woman is too headstrong!" Duan Ling Tian sighed in his heart.
In next to no time, he finally noticed softness in his hand, and only now did he realize that he was still holding the delicate hand of the City Governor’s daughter.
"Eh." Duan Ling Tian noticed that at this moment, the City Governor’s daughter wasn’t furious as before, she glanced at him before lowering her head with a ladylike appearance.
Compared to before, she was like a completely different person.
"Not good!" This scene caused a bad premonition to arise in Duan Ling Tian’s heart, and he hurriedly let go and took a few steps back. "It was a good battle."
"Hehe… Big Brother Ling Tian, do you want to see how she looks?" The little gold mouse’s voice transmission entered into Duan Ling Tian’s ears. "If you want to see then I’ll go pull off her veil right now."
"Don’t act recklessly!" Duan Ling Tian glared at the little gold mouse as he stopped her.
If the little gold mouse were to pull off her veil, then the City Governor’s daughter would say, ‘The first man who sees my face must be my husband…’
Then wouldn’t he suffer this for no reason?
"This Little Brother has won!"
"Little Brother, congratulations on becoming the City Governor’s son-in-law!"
"Congratulations Little Brother."
…
In next to no time, Duan Ling Tian noticed that the surging crowd around the arena were actually congratulating him, and it caused him to be speechless.
Didn’t I say before that I only came for the Soul Transformation Fruit?
Is there something wrong with the ears of these people?
Right when Duan Ling Tian was intending to provide an explanation.
"Hahahaha…" A hearty laugher sounded out from the horizon and became clearer and clearer.
Duan Ling Tian raised his head to look over.
He saw a crimson red figure descending from the sky and quickly arrived before him.
This was a middle aged man in a crimson red robe with a dignified expression between his brows, and his eyes that were looking at Duan Ling Tian right now were emitting bright lights…
"Lord City Governor!" A wave of respectful voice sounded out by Duan Ling Tian’s ears.
It was the surrounding crowd of people that were bowing to the red robed middle aged man.
City Governor?
The Phoenix Nest City’s Governor?
Duan Ling Tian came to a sudden understanding.
"Good… Very good… Kid, from today onwards, you’re the son-in-law of I, Feng Wu Dao!" The Phoenix Nest City’s Governor, Feng Wu Dao, looked at the Duan Ling Tian as he nodded in satisfaction, as if he was like an old man that was more interested the more he looked at his son-in-law.
"Congratulations City Governor."
"Congratulations City Governor."
…
The surrounding crowd of people all congratulated Feng Wu Dao.
"Thank you everyone." Feng Wu Dao laughed and was in an excellent mood.
"City Governor Feng." Duan Ling Tian glanced at the young woman that stood by Feng Wu Dao’s side with a lowered head and slightly shy expression, and he laughed bitterly. "I think you’ve misunderstood… I ascended this arena today only for the sake of that Soul Transformation Fruit, and not for your daughter."
As soon as Duan Ling Tian’s words sounded out, the joyous atmosphere in the scene stopped abruptly.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
…
Numerous gazes from all around the arena descended onto Duan Ling Tian.
The crowd of people were all shocked by what Duan Ling Tian said.
Only now did some people recall that when the young man ascended the arena earlier, he did indeed say this.
But no one took his words seriously at that time.
"What did you say?!" Feng Wu Dao’s face became grim, and in almost an instant, a formidable imposing manner swept out from him to press onto Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian face went pale.
The imposing manner of Feng Wu Dao descended onto him and pressed on him to the point his internal organs shook.
In the end, Duan Ling Tian was truly unable to endure it and his body shook.
"Pu!" He was forcefully made to spit out a mouthful of blood.
Subsequently, Duan Ling Tian struggled to raise his head and look at Feng Wu Dao in astonishment, and he had a fearful expression.
"The strength of this Feng Wu Dao is so strong… I’m not afraid of it in the slightest even if it’s the imposing manner of an ordinary Void Initiation Stage expert! But his imposing manner is actually able to injure me!" Waves of coldness abruptly arose within Duan Ling Tian’s heart.
