“Temple Master Wu,” Mi Xuan looked at Wu Hong Qing and said nonchalantly, “The Title Temple has existed since the dawn of the Devata Realms. As the Temple Master, I’m sure you’re very knowledgeable. You clearly know that Phantom Clan’s attitude toward members who possess physical bodies…”
Wu Hong Qing nodded. Indeed, he knew quite a bit about the Phantom Clan. He knew those rare Lords of Gods from the Phantom Clan were highly sought after by powerful forces in the past as well. In fact, these clan members were even sold at an exorbitant price during auctions in the Realms of Gods.
“I’m no longer the Clan Leader of the Phantom Clan…” Mi Xuan said truthfully.
Wu Hong Qing was slightly taken aback by this revelation. He had been surprised as well when he discovered Miyan had possessed Ru Lai, the Branch Temple Master of the Title Temple branch in the Pavilion Shaft Heaven. After all, he knew it was taboo for members of the Phantom Clan to possess another person. These members would be hunted down and killed. When he saw Mi Xuan helping Miyan but showed no interest in possessing Duan Ling Tian, he knew Mi Xuan was only helping his brother but still trying to uphold the Phantom Clan’s rules at the same time. Moreover, why would Mi Xuan give up his comfortable position as the clan leader to possess Duan Ling Tian? He really did not expect that Mi Xuan would be removed from his position in the end.
“You’re no longer the clan leader?”
“Do you think I’d ask you to help me find a suitable body to possess if I’m still the Clan Leader of the Phantom Clan?” Mi Xuan asked in return.
“Is it because of Miyan?” Wu Hong Qing asked.
“No, it’s because of Feng Qing Yang!” Mi Xuan said grimly, “He went to the Land of the Dead and exposed my and Miyan’s matters to the clan. As a result, I was stripped off my position and expelled from the clan!”
“Feng Qing Yang?” Wu Hong Qing asked curiously, “Even if he exposed you, the clan shouldn’t have made such drastic decisions without evidence, right?”
“How do you know he didn’t have evidence?” Mi Xuan retorted.
“How could he have evidence? His clone exploded,” Wu Hong Qing said.
“He has a pair of linked Floating Image Pearls that were forged by someone stronger than Lords of Gods. Even if one of the Floating Image Pearls was destroyed, the recordings had been sent to the other Floating Image Pearl. You should know that linked Floating Image Pearls transmit recordings in real-time due to the special material they’re forged from…”
Wu Hong Qing exclaimed in shock, “Feng Qing Yang had a pair of linked Floating Image Pearls that were forged by someone who’s at least as strong as a Lord of God?!”
Linked Floating Image Pearls could only be found in Realms of Gods. After all, only those who were Lords of Gods or stronger could forge them. Apart from transmitting recordings in real-time, unlike the Floating Image Pearls in Devata Realms, they could record sounds as well. How could Feng Qing Yang not be shocked that Feng Qing Yang possessed a pair of linked Floating Image Pearls when Feng Qing Yang had not gone to the Realms of Gods?
“He must have obtained them in the Asura Hell,” Mi Xuan said in a grave tone, “Even the Title Temple only has a few pairs of linked Floating Image Pearls, right? Moreover, they can only be used once.”
Wu Hong Qing nodded. The Title Temple used to have many pairs of linked Floating Image Pearls. However, since they could only be used once, currently, the Title Temple only had four pairs left.
“Since Feng Qing Yang attained godhood in the Asura Hell, he must have had a great fortuitous encounter there. It’s not strange that he obtained a pair of linked Floating Image Pearls. When I tracked him down previously, I found that he had returned to the Asura Hell again. It’s ridiculous that he’s treating the Asura Hell like his backyard!” Mi Xuan said indignantly.
“He returned to the Asura Hell again?” Wu Hong Qing felt speechless. After a moment, he said with a hint of fear, “His fortuitous encounter must be extraordinary for him to become an elementary King of Gods in such a short time. Since he returned to that place, it means that his fortuitous encounter isn’t over. If he continues to raise his cultivation base, it won’t take long for him to surpass you…”
“I know,” Mi Xuan replied evenly, “Find me someone extraordinary to possess, and we won’t have to worry about him anymore.”
“You’re planning to…” Wu Hong Qing naturally understood Mi Xuan’s intentions.
At this time, a voice suddenly rang from outside.
“Temple Master, Tang San Pao wishes to see you.”
Usually, Wu Hong Qing would have been delighted by his successor, Tang San Pao’s visit. However, at this moment, he said emotionlessly, “I’m busy. Tell him to come and see me tomorrow.”
Mi Xuan sensed the imperceptible change in Wu Hong Qing’s voice. His eyes lit up as his powerful Divine Consciousness surged out.
Upon seeing this, Wu Hong Qing cried out, “Please show mercy! He’s my successor! I’ll find someone as talented as him for you! Just leave him alone!”
Wu Hong Qing knew Mi Xuan would definitely be interested in possessing Tang San Pao thus he had tried to send Tang San Pao away.
“There’s no need for that. I’m very satisfied with this body!” Mi Xuan coldly said.
Wu Hong Qing’s expression changed drastically. “Mi Xuan, don’t go overboard. Do you intend to make an enemy out of the Title Temple?”
“Temple Master, why are you getting worked up? You can just find another successor,” Mi Xuan said indifferently before he vanished, chasing after Tang San Pao.
…
In a remote mountain in the Solitary Destructive Heaven.
As soon as Duan Ling Tian met up with his family friends in the Solitary Destructive Heaven, he had sent them back to his Little World.
Lian Qiu and Du Xuan, who had entered Duan Ling Tian’s Little World for the first time, were shocked.
“The Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy here is so rich!”
“That… Is that the Five Divine Elements?”
The husband and wife were shocked by the richness of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy and the streaks of colorful energies surrounding the Divine Tree of Life.
At this time, the Five Divine Elements that were recuperating were much dimmer than usual.
Although Duan Ling Tian felt relieved after his family and friends had returned to his Little World, he felt heavy-hearted. ‘Master is forced to return to the Asura Hell again, and my Five Divine Elements have been exposed. Wu Hong Qing is definitely thinking of ways to obtain my Five Divine Elements now. To him, the Five Divine Elements are definitely much more precious than my Space Sword Dao or Space Mastery Dao. After all, after possessing the Five Divine Elements, one would be able to easily form and comprehend the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth. Moreover, if one possesses the highest form Five Divine Elements, one would be able to completely master the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth.”
Duan Ling Tian was in crisis now that Five Divine Elements had been exposed. Previously, he could still rely on Feng Qing Yang. However, currently, not only was Feng Qing Yang’s clone destroyed, but Feng Qing Yang’s soul was injured as well. It would take a long time for Feng Qing Yang to recover. This meant that from now on, he could only rely on himself.
“The Title Temple has vast influence in the Devata Realms. It won’t take long for them to find me if I step outside. However, I can hide away forever. In order to raise my cultivation base, I can just hide myself away. Although I’m not a Ten Directions Celestial King, I’m still far from attaining godhood… It seems like I can only spend my time in the Nine Serenities Battlefield for now…”
