Duan Ling Tian was rather familiar with the Gravitational Space Profundity, therefore, he knew its weaknesses as well.
“Distortion Profundity!” Faced with the mounting pressure and the constantly shrinking cage around him, Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes as he mobilized his Celestial Origin Energy through his 99 Heavenly Veins. When his Celestial Origin was boosted by the Space Elemental Profundity after it surged out of his body, he quickly cast the Distortion Profundity. Due to his 99 Heavenly Veins, his speed when he mobilized his Celestial Origin Energy was extremely swift. Ordinary cultivators could not hope to compare with him at all.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The space around Duan Ling Tian began to ripple and distort in just an instant. The immense pressure that was bearing down on him earlier suddenly vanished without a trace now that the Distortion Profundity had nullified the Gravitational Space Profundity’s effect. With the Distortion Profundity, he was immune from most energy attacks.
When the cage shrank until the four sides were only seven or eight meters away from Duan Ling Tian, he quickly cast the Territory Profundity. The combination of the Territory Profundity and the Distortion Profundity began to wreak havoc on the cage, clearly trying to destroy the cage.
‘He’s a Ten Directions Celestial Duke! Aren’t these two profundities the Distortion Profundity and the Territory Profundity from the law of space?’ Heng Feng was stronger than Gongsun Jing, the person whom Duan Ling Tian killed. Therefore, he was more discerning compared to Gongsun Jing. Based on Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Origin Energy, he quickly discovered Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation base. Apart from that, it was easy for him to identify the two profundities Duan Ling Tian had cast. With these revelations, his expression turned grim immediately.
“Shake Profundity!” A mustard energy rose and shrouded the Gravitational Space Profundity’s cage, causing the cage to quake. Its effect was somewhat similar to the law of space’s Distortion Profundity. Alas, Heng Feng had cast the Shake Profundity too late. Before the Shake Profundity’s full power took effect, it was suppressed by Duan Ling Tian’s Territory Profundity and Distortion Profundity.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of loud explosions rang in the air as the cage created by Heng Feng’s Gravitational Space Profundity was reduced to dust in just a blink of an eye. However, in just a matter of seconds, the dust seemed to converge before they formed a cage again. Just like earlier, the cage continued to shrink.
Duan Ling Tian’s eyes glinted upon seeing this. A faint smile appeared on his face as he thought to himself, ‘The Recovery Profundity… How interesting.’
Indeed, Heng Feng managed to reconstruct his cage by casting the law of earth’s Recovery Profundity. The Recovery Profundity allowed its user to replenish Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted with the Earth Elemental Profundity and restore any structure that was created using the law of earth. Therefore, it was easy for Heng Feng to use the Recovery Profundity to reconstruct the cage that the Gravitational Space Profundity manifested.
With this, Heng Feng, the inner disciple of the Martial Battle Mansion, had cast five profundities from the law of earth so far: the Earth Elemental Profundity, the Rock Style Profundity, the Gravitational Space Profundity, the Shake Profundity, and the Recovery Profundity.
“I, Heng Feng, have underestimated you… I didn’t expect an outer court disciple to possess such strength!” Heng Feng’s loud and energetic voice rang in the air. “However, if this is the extent of your strength, I advise you to crush your Accumulative Point Jade!”
As soon as Heng Feng finished speaking, the cage shrank at an even faster speed.
At this moment, the Shake Profundity had almost reached its full power as well. Its resistance against Duan Ling Tian’s Distortion Profundity and Territory Profundity grew stronger as well. After all, just like how Duan Ling Tian’s Distortion Profundity was boosted by the Territory Profundity, Heng Feng’s Shake Profundity was boosted by the Gravitational Space Profundity and the Rock Style Profundity.
“Teleportation Profundity!” Duan Ling Tian vanished into thin air in just a blink of an eye.
Heng Feng’s eyes narrowed upon seeing this.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian reappeared behind Heng Feng. His eyes flashed coldly before energy surged out and shrouded Heng Feng, imprisoning Heng Feng. He had cast the law of space’s Restraining Profundity.
He did not waste any time before he cast another two profundities from the law of space. “Territory Profundity! Distortion Profundity!”
With this, a formidable and seemingly peerless energy swept out toward Heng Feng. It seemed capable of destroying everything in its path.
Everything had happened so quickly that Heng Feng barely had time to process everything. As he was restrained by the Restraining Profundity, a layer of crystal had appeared above his rock armor. He had cast the Crystal Barrier Profundity! It was the main defensive profundity from the law of earth. At the critical moment, he had cast the sixth profundity from the law of earth. Currently, his strength far surpassed Gongsun Jing, the inner disciple from the Azure Green Mansion.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
When Duan Ling Tian’s wave of energy swept over Heng Feng, it shattered the layer of crystal wrapped around his rock armor. However, the remaining force from the energy only managed to leave cracks on Heng Feng’s armor.
Heng Feng spat a mouthful of blood before he quickly regained his composure. A powerful energy surged out of his body again; it was the Gravitational Space Profundity. Combined with the Shake Profundity, the restraining space Duan Ling Tian had created began to quake.
At this moment, the two opponents’ energies collided.
“Recovery Profundity!” After Heng Feng cast the Recovery Profundity, not only did the layer of crystal reappear and the cracks on the armor disappear, but his Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted by the Earth Elemental Profundity grew stronger as well.
In the next moment, Duan Ling Tian had fallen into a disadvantageous position.
“The Space Elemental Profundity, the Distortion Profundity, the Territory Profundity, the Restraining Profundity, and the Teleportation Profundity… Since when did the Profound Nether Mansion have a Ten Directions Celestial Duke like you?” Although Heng Feng had gained the upper hand, his expression remained grim. He found it strange that he had never heard of such a person from the Profound Nether Mansion. For someone with Duan Ling Tian’s strength and achievements, he should be quite famous. After all, Duan Ling Tian had comprehended one of the Four Supreme Laws, the law of space. The Four Supreme Laws were notoriously difficult to comprehend. For example, comprehending five profundities from the law of space was as difficult as comprehending seven or eight profundities from an ordinary law.
At this moment, Heng Feng dismissed his intention of making Duan Ling Tian crush his Accumulative Point Jade. After discovering Duan Ling Tian had comprehended the law of space’s Teleportation Profundity, he knew it would be impossible for him to catch Duan Ling Tian. As long as Duan Ling Tian’s opponent was not someone who had comprehended the law of wind’s Gale Profundity or other movement profundities to a higher level, Duan Ling Tian would be able to escape from most people.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Heng Feng was staring at Duan Ling Tian solemnly when a few figures flew out from the Martial Battle Mansion’s base in the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.
“Senior Heng Feng?”
“Who’s that? He’s equally matched with Senior Heng Feng!”
“Are my eyes tricking me? He’s… he’s an outer court disciple from the Profound Nether Mansion?”
“What? How’s it possible that an outer court disciple is capable of standing on even ground with Senior Heng Feng?”
These disciples from the Martial Battle Mansion were drawn here by the huge commotion from Duan Ling Tian and Heng Feng’s fight. Although Duan Ling Tian and Heng Feng had exchanged quite a few blows now, the fact was only a short time had passed.
A hint of surprise flashed in Duan Ling Tian’s eyes as he said, “I didn’t expect you to have comprehended six profundities from the law of earth as well.”
Duan Ling Tian ignored the disciples from the Martial Battle Mansion as he fell deep into thoughts. Heng Feng’s strength was comparable to Gongsun Jing. In fact, if both of them fought, it was likely that Gongsun Jing would lose to Heng Feng. However, if Gongsun Jing tried to escape, Heng Feng might not be able to catch up since speed was not the law of earth’s forte.
“He said that Senior Heng Feng has comprehended six profundities from the law of earth… Don’t tell me Senior Feng had to use all six profundities from the law of earth that he has comprehended to deal with this person?”
“That might not be the case… Don’t forget Senior Heng Feng is quite famous among those who enter the middle realm. This person could’ve heard about Senior Heng Feng comprehending six profundities from the law of earth.”
Upon hearing these words, an observant disciple from the Martial Battle Mansion scoffed before he said, “Can’t any of you tell that Senior Heng Feng had cast six profundities from the law of earth?”
At this moment, Heng Feng said in his low voice, “Why don’t you leave since you’ve comprehended the law of space’s Teleportation Profundity? It’s impossible for me to catch you anyway.”
Upon hearing Heng Feng’s words, the disciples from the Martial Battle Mansion were stunned.
Teleportation Profundity?
Not only did this outer court disciple from the Profound Nether Mansion force Heng Feng to cast six profundities from the law of earth, but he had also comprehended the law of space’s Teleportation Profundity?
