Chapter 3007: The Price For Cheating

“The law of time?” Duan Ling Tian was stunned.

“Yes! The law of time!” The Chaos Divine Earth replied, “After killing the third battle soul, the energy from the law of time froze the time where the giant sword is at. If I’m not mistaken, the law of time has appeared to buy time for the remaining seven battle souls to fuse.”

What happened subsequently proved the Chaos Divine Earth right.

Zoom! Zoom! Zoom!

In just a moment, the seven remaining battle souls fused together and formed one battle soul. The battle soul had the appearance of a muscular middle-aged man. It was more than two meters tall and looked as solid as an iron tower. The shirtless middle-aged man’s bulging muscles and almost popping veins showed his formidable strength. It did not take long before the exact replica of Duan Ling Tian’s giant sword appeared in his hand. Even the replicated sword had the same aura as the original. Despite being a replica, it was, for all intent and purpose, a King Grade Celestial Weapon that had been nurtured by the Celestial Origin Energy of a Celestial Lord.    ‘I can move again!’ When Duan Ling Tian discovered that he could move his giant sword again, he discovered his attack had missed since his target was no longer there.

“Boy, it’s not going to be easy for you to defeat this battle soul… At this moment, its strength is already on par with a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial who had comprehended a profundity of a law. In fact, it might even be a little stronger than that,” the Chaos Divine Earth said, “I will help you at the critical point when you fight… However, all I can do is boost your defenses. You can only depend on yourself to kill it. It’s a pity the Profound Divine Metal is still asleep. If he’s awake, he could merge with the first-form Profound Divine Metal you just found and evolve into a third-form Profound Divine Metal… At that time, he’d be able to boost your attacks by fusing with your offensive Celestial Weapon!”

Upon hearing the Chaos Divine Earth’s words, Duan Ling Tian realized how formidable the battle soul in front of him was.

“Will the law of time appear again? If it does and freezes my movements, the battle soul would be able to easily kill me.” Duan Ling Tian was most worried about the law of time. Based on how his giant sword’s movements were frozen earlier, he was afraid the law of time would freeze him and allow the battle soul to kill him. He would not stand a chance at all if that happened. With this thought in mind, he was numb with fear. The law of time was truly terrifying. It was so unpredictable that one would have a hard time defending against it.

The Chaos Divine Earth replied, “That’s unlikely… If it happens, it only means the Celestial Lord’s objective is to kill people. By doing something like that, what good would it bring the Celestial Lord who created the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm?” It dispelled Duan Ling Tian’s worries immediately. “The law of time only appeared earlier to let the remaining souls merge. Now that the merge is complete, it won’t appear again. If the Celestial Lord had truly intended to kill you, the law of time would have frozen you earlier and let the battle souls kill you.”    Duan Ling Tian thought the Chaos Divine Earth’s words made sense.

The Chaos Divine Earth continued to say, “Killing this battle soul should be your first trial in the Celestial Lord Temple… This means the subsequent trials are just going to be tougher and tougher…”

“I know…” Duan Ling Tian nodded. Then, he turned to look at the last final battle soul. “Now, I’ll be fine so long as the law of time doesn’t appear again.”    Whoosh!

The battle soul was already moving when Duan Ling Tian finished speaking. It brandished the giant sword and slashed at Duan Ling Tian as though it was trying to cleave him into two. The way it wielded the giant sword was similar to Duan Ling Tian earlier.

Swoosh!

Duan Ling Tian scoffed. He unleashed all his strength as he brandished his giant sword when faced with the battle soul’s ferocious attack.

Clang!

When the two giant swords collided, the sounds of explosions rang in the air as the shockwave rippled out into the surroundings.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The shockwave from the collision of the giant swords was incredibly terrifying. The void shook and rippled as the shockwave rolled out. Then, the entire hall began to quake when the shockwave hit the walls; it was like a terrible earthquake.    ‘So powerful! Its strength is on par with mine…’ Based on the recoil he felt in his hands, Duan Ling Tian gained a deeper understanding of the battle soul’s strength. With this knowledge, he knew it would be difficult for him to win if he depended on force alone. He would need to strategize wisely in order to win. Fortunately, he had the Chaos Divine Earth on his side.

Meanwhile, a grey-clad young man who had just passed his trial in another hall walked out. After walking out of his hall, he looked back and found the walls were transparent. He could see into the hall he was previously in and other halls!

“That is…” Soon after, the young man discovered quite a number of people gathering in front of a wall in the hall. Roughly five or six people were all watching a battle in one of the halls as they discussed among themselves.

“This purple-clad young man must have brought another person into the Celestial Lord Temple… Otherwise, he wouldn’t have to fight with such a terrifying battle soul!”    “Previously, Hong Tao, the prodigy from the Compassionate Cloud Sect, had been killed by a battle soul like this. Hong Tao had comprehended the law of wood’s Fundamental Profundity, the Wood Elemental Profundity, but he still died after exchanging about a hundred moves with the battle soul.”    “Hong Tao… That’s right! I heard he helped his junior brother to accumulate ten points so his junior brother could enter the Celestial Lord Temple with him!”

“Although his junior brother didn’t exit the room, Hong Tao still had to pay the price for helping his junior brother cheat his way into the Celestial Lord Temple. The Celestial Lord who created this place would increase the difficulty for those who cheated.”    “That’s quite obvious. For the same trial, we merely had to face the ten battle souls with strength comparable to a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. However, look at how terrifying the battle soul that the purple-clad young man has to face!”    “I witnessed Hong Tao’s fight. Initially, they were evenly matched but after exchanging about 100 moves, the battle soul’s strength rose again. It was instantly as strong as a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial who had comprehended two profundities of a law. It had easily killed Hong Tao after that!”

“Currently, the purple-clad young man’s strength is on par with the battle soul. I’m guessing the battle soul’s strength will improve in 100 moves or so. At that time, the purple-clad young man will surely die!”

The grey-clad young man looked around and discovered the center of the hall was an empty space with transparent walls around it, allowing one to see into other halls. ‘There are so many people here?’    Apart from the hall where the others were gathered in front of, there were a few other halls where people were battling as well.

Those in the other halls were fighting with battle souls that were similar to the ones the grey-clad young man had encountered during his first trial. He had to defeat ten battle souls with strength comparable to a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial who had completely mastered his Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. When he looked at the others halls, he noticed the people in the hall were rather strong. A few of them had easily overwhelmed the battle souls. These people’s strength was on par with his strength. They had probably comprehended a profundity of a law as well.

“That hall…” Soon after, the grey-clad young man was driven by his curiosity to look at the hall where everyone was gathered in front of.

‘It’s him!’ With just a glance, he recognized the purple-clad young man fighting in the hall! The purple-clad young man was none other than Duan Ling Tian, the sectless genius from the Supporting Fall Nation!    ‘His opponent…’ After that, the grey-clad young man noticed the battle soul that Duan Ling Tian had to face was abnormally strong compared to the collective strength of the ten battle souls he had to face. His expression was solemn as he thought to himself, ‘Even I would need more than 30 moves to kill it after unleashing all my strength! Moreover, based on the discussion in the surroundings, it seems like the battle soul’s strength would improve after 100 moves or so!’

The spectators continued to fervently discuss among themselves as they watched Duan Ling Tian. Most of them did not think Duan Ling Tian would be able to survive.

“They’ve already exchanged 22 moves. Although this purple-clad young man is powerful, he’s destined to die if he can’t defeat it within 100 moves!”

“The battle soul is too powerful. I’d definitely die if I have to face it. Moreover, we can’t rely on external forces in the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm so Celestial Talismans and Celestial Pills are useless here.”    “That’s right. So long as they contain the Celestial Origin Energy of a Celestial Duke or someone stronger, they won’t work here. If a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial consumes a medicinal pill that could increase their strength to that of a Celestial Duke, they would be instantly killed by the Formation guarding the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm!”    “He only has a chance of defeating this battle soul if he has comprehended two profundities of a law. Otherwise, it’d be impossible for him to win. After all, they’re both using King Grade Celestial Weapons nurtured by a Celestial Lord!”
