As soon as Zhu Ying Jun finished speaking, Mansion Master Fang made his move.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions rang in the air, and Mansion Master Fang moved at the speed of lightning. He attacked in midair; a giant hammer fell from the sky thunderously on the fleeing advanced Emperor of Gods.

The advanced Emperor of Gods hastily turned around and fled in the other direction.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

!!

Three claps of thunder rang in the air as three gigantic hammers fell from the sky in three different directions, cutting off the advanced Emperor of Gods’ escape routes.

The advanced Emperor of Gods’ expression turned grim immediately upon seeing this.

At this time, Zhu Ying Jun suddenly said in an indifferent voice, “If you can escape from Mansion Master Fang, I’ll grant you freedom.”

Upon hearing this, the advanced Emperor of Gods’ expression brightened immediately. The will to live shone brightly in his eyes at this moment. He spun around, facing Mansion Master Fang, who was like a lightning bolt, and brought his prominent divine artifact with a complete artifact soul out of his spatial ring. Subsequently, he took the lead to attack; a seven-foot-long spear shot out toward Mansion Master Fang.

The advanced Emperor of Gods knew that his opponent was stronger and faster than him. If he tried to flee blindly, it would be almost impossible for him to escape. It was better for him to stay and fight. Perhaps, he would be able to find a chance to escape at that time.

Meanwhile, Mansion Master Fang snorted when he saw the advanced Emperor of Gods turning around to attack him. He said icily, “I’ll let you go if I can’t kill you within three moves.”

As soon as Mansion Master Fang’s voice fell, a gigantic hammer, his prominent divine artifact, appeared in his hand. Lightning flashed around the hammer, and a translucent figure could be seen above the hammer. The translucent figure was clearly the artifact soul.

When the advanced Emperor of Gods heard Mansion Master Fang’s words, not only was he unafraid, but he seemed even more excited. He thought to himself, ‘Three moves! I don’t believe that I can’t withstand three moves from Fang Xiong Lei if I defend with all my might!’

Mansion Master Fang’s name was Fang Xiong Lei. He was the Mansion Master of the Righteous Divine Kingdom’s Cloudy Garden Mansion, and he was one of the most powerful mansion masters in the Righteous Divine Kingdom.

‘This Mansion Master Fang…’ Duan Ling Tian’s expression turned solemn as he watched Fang Xiong Lei. He could naturally tell that Fang Xiong Lei was very strong, far stronger than Mo Wen Dao, the late Mansion Master of the Divine Spirit Mansion. In fact, he felt that Fang Xiong Lei was even stronger than Zhong Bai Nan, who was stronger than Mo Wen Dao. He could already sense this as soon as Fang Xiong Lei made a move earlier.

Duan Ling Tian continued to watch as Fang Xiong Lei easily deflected the advanced Emperor of Gods’ preemptive strike with his hammer before injuring the advanced Emperor of Gods with his second strike, causing the advanced Emperor of Gods to throw up blood.

With this, Duan Ling Tian had a better understanding of Fang Xiong Lei’s strength. Similar to Zhong Bai Nan, he was already very close to becoming a Supreme God, but his comprehension of the law was more profound than that of Zhong Bai Nan so he was stronger than Zhong Bai Nan.

Fang Xiong Lei comprehended the law of thunder, which was a derivative law of the Five Divine Elements. However, his comprehension of the law was so profound that his law of lightning was stronger than the five elemental laws like the law of metal and the law of fire, which were the main offensive laws among the five elements.

Boom!

When Fang Xiong Lei’s third strike fell, the advanced Emperor of Gods, who still held the seven-foot-long spear in his hand, was struck to death by a bolt of lightning. Not only that, but the bolt of lightning destroyed the seven-foot-long spear as well.

Following that, a beam of light shone down from the sky on Fang Xiong Lei. As he received his reward, lightning continued to flash in the sky, making him look like the god of thunder.

After Fang Xiong Lei received the reward, he looked at Zhu Ying Jun, the Lord of the Righteous Divine Kingdom, and said before returning to his seat, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”

Zhu Ying Jun laughed. “Mansion Master Fang, you’ve become stronger. It seems like it won’t be long before you enter the realm of a Supreme God.”

Although Zhu Ying Jun was smiling, a hint of helplessness could be seen in his eyes. After all, he knew that once Fang Xiong Lei became a Supreme God, Fang Xiong Lei would leave the Righteous Divine Kingdom. Only by leaving would Fang Xiong Lei be able to continue to raise his cultivation base and improve. Fang Xiong Lei’s future would be limited if he were to stay in the Righteous Divine Kingdom.

At this moment, Fang Xiong Lei was the focus of everyone’s attention.

“Mansion Master Fang, you’re amazing!”

“Mansion Master Fang, you really hid your strength very well! I didn’t expect you to have progressed so much!”

Duan Ling Tian, who was no longer at the center of attention, was also looking at Fang Xiong Lei. He knew that even if he went all out, there was no chance of him fighting to a draw with Fang Xiong Lei, let alone defeating Fang Xiong Lei.

Back then, although Duan Ling Tian was weaker, he thought that he had a chance of fighting Zhong Bai Nan to a draw. However, at this moment, although he had grown stronger since then, he was not confident at all that he could even fight Fang Xiong Lei to a draw.

‘It’s impossible for me to defeat him unless I become an intermediate Emperor of Gods or further comprehend the law of space, the Sword Dao, or the Mastery Dao…’ Duan Ling Tian sighed inwardly. The sense of superiority he gained after his rapid improvement also vanished at this moment. He had felt that he was rather strong previously and was confident that he would be able to perform quite well during the Battle of the Divine Kingdoms in Destiny Canyon. However, after witnessing the strength of Fang Xiong Lei, the Mansion Master of the Cloudy Garden Mansion, he no longer dared to think that way.

‘There are likely more than just one or two quasi-Supreme Gods like Fang Xiong Lei from the other Divine Kingdoms participating in the Battle of the Divine Kingdoms in Destiny Canyon,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as the pressure pressing down on him grew heavier.

‘If only I can become an intermediate Emperor of Gods before the start of the Battle of the Divine Kingdoms…’ Duan Ling Tian sighed inwardly. He knew this was unrealistic.

While everyone was still shocked by Fang Xiong Lei’s performance, Zhu Ying Jun clapped his hands again.

Following that, another advanced Emperor of Gods was brought over. He was a tall old man dressed in a brocade robe. Similar to the one before, his eyes were lifeless, and his expression was blank as well. Although he was now a prisoner, it could be seen that he once had an extraordinary bearing.

Zhu Ying Jun said with a smile, “This advanced Emperor of Gods is stronger than the previous one. I captured him myself back then. The rules are still the same as before…”

Following that, Zhu Ying Jun tossed out jade tokens again. The jade tokens were new; he did not collect the jade tokens he had thrown out before. With his presence, he was confident the mansion masters would not dare to cheat using the old jade tokens. Not only that, but the mansion masters would not do such a thing as well. After all, once exposed, not only would it be embarrassing, but the mansion master would leave a bad impression on him as well. As such, it was not worth it to cheat at all.

This time, Duan Ling Tian was lucky and obtained the ‘move’ jade token.

The other mansion master who obtained the ‘move’ jade token was someone who doubted Duan Ling Tian. He was a middle-aged man with a medium build and a stern face. He took the lead and flew out first. Then, he smiled contemptuously as he said, “Mansion Master Duan, everyone says that you’re very strong. Today, I finally have a chance to see for myself…”

Duan Ling Tian did not hesitate and flew out as well. Based on the conversations between the mansion masters that he had overheard, he knew the middle-aged man was Sun Yi Yu, the Mansion Master of the Righteous Divine Kingdom’s Giant Eagle Mansion.

At this time, Yun He suddenly said to Duan Ling Tian through Voice Transmission, “Brother Ling Tian, Sun Yi Yu’s strength should be comparable to that of the late Mansion Master Mo. 100 years ago, they had a match and fought to a draw.”

Yun He’s words put Duan Ling Tian’s heart at ease immediately. If Sun Yi Yu’s strength was only on par with that of Mo Wen Dao, he was not afraid at all.

Duan Ling Tian stood across from Sun Yi Yu in the air and said with a slight smile, “Mansion Master Sun, I heard that you’re rather strong. Even the late Mansion Master Mo Wen Dao of the Divine Spirit Mansion couldn’t defeat you back then…”

Sun Yi Yu scoffed before he said coldly, “Mo Wen Dao was rather strong. We fought to a draw 100 years ago. Alas, I’m afraid that you, the interim Mansion Master of the Divine Spirit Mansion, aren’t qualified to be compared to Mo Wen Dao.”

As soon as Sun Yi Yu finished speaking, golden light burst forth from his body. Obviously, he comprehended the law of metal, one of the two offensive laws of the five elemental laws.

“Mansion Master Sun, it seems like you’re confident about defeating me,” Duan Ling Tian said with a faint smile on his face.

“What? Don’t tell me you think you can defeat me?” Sun Yi Yu retorted with a disdainful smile on his face.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was briefly filled with the urge to challenge Sun Yi Yu to a life-or-death battle, but he thought better of it. After all, Zhu Ying Jun definitely would not allow it since having Sun Yi Yu participate in the Battle of the Divine Kingdoms to gain benefits for the Righteous Divine Kingdom was more important. Moreover, Sun Yi Yu would not be so foolish as to accept a life-or-death challenge.

Finally, Duan Ling Tian looked at Sun Yi Yu and said, “Mansion Master Sun, why don’t we bet on this fight?”

Sun Yi Yu smiled mockingly as he said, “Oh, you’re going to give something for free?”

Duan Ling Tian chuckled. “If Mansion Master Sun defeats me, the thing will naturally belong to you.”

“What are you going to bet with?” Sun Yi Yu asked as he looked at Duan Ling Tian suspiciously.

“How about an advanced Emperor of Gods?” Duan Ling Tian asked calmly.

An advanced Emperor of Gods meant the rewards from heaven and earth.

“Do you even have one?” Sun Yi Yu asked with a sneer.

“No matter who wins or loses, we’ll fulfill the bet before leaving for Destiny Canyon. The loser must fulfill the bet even if he has to borrow an advanced Emperor of Gods from the Lord,” Duan Ling Tian said calmly, “With this, you don’t have to worry that I won’t fulfill my side of the bet, right?”

As soon as Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, Sun Yi Yi instinctively turned to look at Zhu Ying Jun.

Zhu Ying Jun’s eyes flashed before he said with a faint smile, “If you really want to bet, I can lend an advanced Emperor of Gods to the loser of the fight.”
