Chapter 2269 Repaying One with His Own Deeds

“You’re the one… who killed my son?!” Chen Tong, the elder of Wandering Saint Palace, thundered as he fixed his gaze on Duan Ling Tian. His voice was so loud that it hurt the eardrums.

Before Duan Ling Tian could respond, the old man who had just arrived chimed in, “Elder Chen Tong, he’s the one who killed your son, Chen An…According to Ding Jian Hong, he left no corpse behind. Chen An’s body was turned into dust!” It was obvious this old man was trying to stir up trouble and add oil to fire. He continued to say, “Elder Chen Tong, this fellow killed Chen An in our Wandering Saint Palace’s territory. Not only does he show no regard for the Wandering Saint Palace, but it shows that he disregards you as well!”

Chen Tong’s eyes narrowed, and his expression darkened immediately. His body emitted a cold aura, causing people to feel as though they were in a snowy tundra. He cursed loudly, “You… son of a bitch!” His body radiated killing intent as his Saint Origin circled through his Saint Veins and surged out of his body.

“Daddy, this man is so annoying.” A childish and melodic voice suddenly rang in the air, attracting everyone’s attention.

The voice belonged to Duan Si Ling who was being carried by Duan Ling Tian. She frowned at Chen Tong, looking like a young adult. Her dislike toward Chen Tong was apparent on her adorable face.

“Since Si Ling said that he’s annoying… Then, should I make him leave?” Duan Ling Tian asked Si Ling gently as he looked at her affectionately and stroked her little head. He did not even deign to look at Chen Tong, it was as though Chen Tong did not exist at all.

“What shameless boasting!” The old patrolling disciple glared at Duan Ling Tian and said angrily, “Hey, little brat, do you really think just because you’re at the Fifth or Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage you can look down on Elder Chen Tong? Elder Chen Tong is a powerhouse at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. You’ll die today even if you’re at the Fifth or Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.” He was certain Duan Ling Tian would die today.

After listening to the old man’s words, Chen Tong scoffed in disdain. “Your cultivation base is at the Fifth or Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage… Is that why you’re so arrogant? I’ll be able to kill you with just a move…” Chen Tong was definitely being very presumptuous with his words. Moreover, the patrolling disciples present on the scene did not doubt Chen Tong’s words and ability as well.

If I knew Elder Chen Tong would show up, I wouldn’t have broken the jade token to ask for help,’ Ding Jian Hong thought to himself.

“Die!” Chen Hong cried out. As he moved, a thunderous and piercing noise reverberated in the air, accompanied by a flurry of hurricanes that swept toward Duan Ling Tian ferociously like a dragon.

Chen Tong looked impressive as he stood above the hurricane with his hands clasped behind him, looking down at the world condescendingly.

All of these happened in just a blink of an eye.

When Chen Tong moved, all the patrolling disciples only caught a flash of his body. In the next moment, they saw Chen Tong appear near Duan Ling Tian. His Saint Origin was aggressively increasing and surging out of his body before they converged in his hands.

Suddenly…

Boom!

An explosion sounded as Chen Tong released the Saint Origin that had accumulated in his hands. It rained down toward Duan Ling Tian like a torrential storm. There was no doubt this attack was extremely powerful!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions continued to ring in the air from Chen Tong’s attack. Even the ground began to quake violently.

When Ding Jian Hong saw the torrential attack formed from Saint Origin aimed at Duan Ling Tian, he sighed inwardly. ‘Karma sure came for this purple-clad young man quickly… He turned Chen An into dust, and now, Chen An’s father is going to turn him into dust! Not only that, but his women and daughter will have to die along with him as well!’ The expression of pity on his face was soon replaced by shock and disbelief when he saw something.

Ding Jian Hong was not the only one. The other patrolling disciples, including the old man, widened their eyes in shock as an expression of disbelief appeared on their faces.

What caused them to react in this manner?

Before Chen Tong’s Saint Origin was about to land on Duan Ling Tian, whirlpools began to appear around him, swirling rapidly. As it churned faster, a terrifying force that seemed able to devour everything began to form. It did not take long before it absorbed Chen Tong’s Saint Origin.

“How’s this possible?!” Chen Tong was shocked and instantly released all his Saint Origin. His Saint Origin was stronger now, and its force seemed infinite.

“Almost there!” Duan Ling Tian absorbed part of Chen Tong’s Saint Origin before moving to another area. Soon after, a massive suction force met with Chen Tong’s Saint Origin.

Boom!

In just an instant, a loud explosion rang in the air when the two forces collided. The ground quaked so violently that it seemed it was going to split apart. At the same time, a flurry of hurricanes swept toward the center of the collision.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

After a series of explosions, Chen Tong’s force was no longer devoured by the whirlpools.

In fact, Duan Ling Tian was experimenting all this time. He was experimenting with the Elementary Devouring Tactic. He discovered he could absorb his opponent’s Saint Origin within a certain range. Therefore, he planned to devour his opponent’s strength to increase his strength. However, he discovered that his opponent’s Saint Origin could not raise his strength like the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy. Although he had successfully devoured his opponent’s Saint Origin, he did not manage to raise his own strength. It caused him to fall into a disadvantageous position for a moment.

“Black Turtle’s Barrier!” Duan Ling Tian cried out, casting the defensive Divine Ability, the Black Turtle’s Barrier. A light shield in the shape of a turtle successfully blocked Chen Tong’s attack.

“Impossible!” Chen Tong was shocked to see that even though he had exhausted almost all of his Saint Origin, he still failed to injure Duan Ling Tian. Moreover, it seemed like Duan Ling Tian did not use much of his energy at all. At this moment, if he still did not realize Duan Ling Tian was stronger than him, then, he had lived in vain all this time.

It was clear the purple-clad young man was not at the Fifth or Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. He was, at least, at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Otherwise, he would not be able to cast a technique that could devour his Saint Origin.

Chen Tong was horrified. He bellowed in a trembling voice, “I’m an elder of Wandering Saint Palace. If you kill me, the palace won’t let you go!” He felt as though he had found a lifebuoy. He thought he could use the Wandering Saint Palace’s name to save his life.

Duan Ling Tian glanced at him and sneered. “There’s no need for you to worry if the Wandering Saint Palace would let me go or not.” Then, he lifted his hands and his Sun Saint Origin swept out in the form of a sword and flew toward Chen Tong.

Since Chen Tong had depleted almost all his Saint Origin, even someone at the First Form of the Saint Celestial Stage could easily kill him, let alone an attack by Duan Ling Tian.

Pa!

When the gigantic sword formed from Duan Ling Tian’s Sun Saint Origin landed on Chen Tong, the void began to quake, causing ripples in the air.

Meanwhile, Chen Tong had already vanished. Only a single Spatial Ring was left floating in the air before it fell.

Swoosh!

An invisible force extended out and brought the Spatial Ring to Duan Ling Tian.

On the other hand, the patrolling disciples present on the scene were terrified as they watched the purple-clad young man put the Spatial Ring away.
