Now that they have all heard about Duan Lingtian's acquisition of the 'Fragment of Mystery', it is likely that the young and powerful men from the second-rate forces have also heard about it.
Now Duan Lingtian must have become the target of public criticism!
This is not difficult for them to guess.
"Although Duan Lingtian is strong... but once he meets a top young powerhouse among the second-rate forces, he may not be able to match him!"
Nangong Yi took a deep breath, and in his words, he was full of fear for the few top young and powerful people among the second-rate forces.
Among the second-rate forces, the average young strong man can easily handle it with his current strength.
But if he is the top powerhouse of a second-rate force, he has no confidence!
The reason why the second-rate forces are second-rate forces is that, in addition to having the ‘Martial Emperor Powerful’ in charge, the young experts they have trained are far stronger than those trained by third-rate forces like the ‘Five Elements Sect’.
Nangong Chen rarely nodded and agreed with Nangong Yi's words.
At the same time, more and more people from all over the Emperor Wu's secret cache confirmed the direction of the 'central area' and rushed towards the central area one by one.
"Um?"
Duan Lingtian, who was on his way to the central area of Emperor Wu's secret treasure, had just passed through a cave when he saw three extremely familiar figures appearing in the distance.
The three of them were heading in the same direction as him, obviously heading towards the central area of the 'Martial Emperor's Secret Treasure'.
"Daniu, Su Li, Brother Zhang."
Duan Lingtian was as fast as lightning and followed the three of them like a ghost. When he reached their side, he smiled and said hello to them.
These three people are none other than Huang Daniu, Su Li and Zhang Shouyong!
Duan Lingtian didn't expect to meet three people here, let alone that the three of them would get together.
"Duan Lingtian!"
"Brother Lingtian!"
Duan Lingtian's appearance brought Huang Daniu, Su Li and Zhang Shouyong a great surprise. Seeing Duan Lingtian again, the eyes of the three of them showed a bit of excitement.
"Duan Lingtian, it's really you... I thought you had been killed!"
Huang Daniu laughed and cursed.
"Duan Lingtian, did you really get a 'mysterious fragment'?"
Su Li looked at Duan Lingtian and asked with burning eyes.
Zhang Shouyong also looked at Duan Lingtian.
"If I said no... would you believe it?"
Hearing Su Li ask this question, Duan Lingtian knew that Su Li and the others must have heard the rumor that he had obtained a 'Fragment of Mystery', and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Although he obtained a 'Fragment of Mystery', it was something that no other living person knew about.
As for the news that is spreading a lot now, it is completely because someone framed him.
"No?"
Hearing Duan Lingtian's words, not only Su Li and Zhang Shouyong, but also Huang Daniu couldn't help being surprised.
"Someone is trying to frame me."
Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed, and a ray of cold light passed by, choosing someone to eat. "However, I don't know who it is yet! But I can be sure that it is the person who came in from entrance No. 2 with us."
"If I know who it is, I will definitely kill him!"
Duan Lingtian's words made Huang Daniu's face darken, and he shook his fist angrily.
"That person framed you like this and obviously wanted you to be killed... That person must have a grudge against you. Could he be the only two remaining disciples of the Sun Moon Sect?"
Su Li speculated.
"It could also be 'Lian Xiong'."
Zhang Shouyong on the side flashed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Everyone in the sword sect knows that Lian Xiong's flaws must be repaid! He suffered such a big loss in front of Brother Lingtian last time, and he will definitely not let it go."
"I have thought about the people you are talking about... even the Duanqing Sect disciples and others are possible! The person who framed me may not necessarily have any grudge against me, or he may simply hate me and not want me to be harmed.
I survived in the 'Martial Emperor's Secret Treasure'."
Duan Lingtian spoke slowly, and finally expressed his inference.
For a moment, Huang Daniu and the other two fell silent.
"That man is really insidious! He can put you in danger with just one word... Now, those young and powerful men from the second-rate forces are definitely looking for you."
Huang Daniu said with a fearful expression.
Second-rate force?
Hearing Huang Daniu's words, Duan Lingtian raised his eyebrows.
Among the disciples of the second-rate forces, so far, none of them he had encountered or fought against was his opponent, and they all died in his hands.
"Even the 'Peng Bao' of the Wuchang Sect... with my current strength, it shouldn't be difficult to defeat him!"
Unknowingly, Duan Lingtian thought of 'Peng Bao', whom he had met once before.
At that time, his mental power detected that Peng Bao was a 'Third Level Warrior of the Transformation Realm'. If it were him at that time, he would not have much confidence in Peng Bao.
But now he is different.
Unless Peng Bao encounters some great adventure, he cannot be his opponent.
"Duan Lingtian, have you gained anything else along the way?"
The four of them hurried to the central area of 'Emperor Wu's Secret Treasure'. On the way, Huang Daniu couldn't help but asked curiously.
"It's not bad...I got a 'Nine Great Earthly Concept Fragments' and a 'Spirit Fruit'."
Duan Lingtian said with a smile, but he did not mention the ‘Seventh Level Imperial Realm Earth Concept Fragment’.
Otherwise, wouldn't he admit that what the person who framed him said was true?
At that time, that person is not setting up a trap, but is telling the truth.
That's what he doesn't want to see.
"what about you?"
After Duan Lingtian said his 'harvest', he looked at Huang Daniu and the others, "How did you three meet?"
"I met Su Li first."
Huang Daniu said.
"Um."
Su Li nodded, "Later, Daniu and I met Brother Zhang, and the three of us traveled together, and we gained something... So far, the 'nine-level artistic conception fragments' that the three of us can use have basically been gathered together.
Done."
"It seems that your harvest is not bad."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
"Duan Lingtian, you don't know... In addition to these harvests, the three of us also encountered a 'Fragment of Mystery'! And it's also an 'Fragment of the Mystery of the Eighth Level Imperial Wind'!"
Huang Daniu sighed as he spoke, his face full of regret.
"Fragments of the Eighth Level Imperial Wind's Mystery?!"
Duan Lingtian couldn't help being surprised when he heard Huang Daniu's words.
Although he also has a 'Fragment of the Secret of the Imperial Wind' in his hand, it is only a 'Fragment of the Secret of the Third-Level Imperial Wind', which is far inferior to the 'Fragment of the Eighth-Level Imperial Wind'.
"You didn't get it?"
Seeing Huang Daniu sigh, Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed, and he asked curiously: "Since you didn't get it...it means that the person who got the 'Secret Fragment' is stronger than you! But, why did he let you go? Didn't he?
Are you worried that you will spread the news that he obtained the 'Fragment of Mystery'?"
"He wanted to kill us, but we managed to escape with great difficulty... In addition, he didn't seem to care about us spreading the news that he had obtained the 'Secret Fragments'."
Zhang Shouyong said with a bitter smile.
"What's the meaning?"
Duan Lingtian was startled and looked puzzled.
In his opinion, since that man wanted to kill Huang Daniu, Su Li and Zhang Shouyong, it meant that he was worried that the three of them would spread the news about the 'Fragments of Mystery' that he had obtained.
But why did Zhang Shouyong say that person didn't care about them spreading the news?
Is not this contradictory?
Soon, after hearing Su Li's explanation, Duan Lingtian finally understood what was going on.
"You mean... he just raised his foot and shook the ground at will, killing those Izumo Sect and Wuchang Sect disciples?"
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but take a breath of air.
Although, from the words of Su Li and the others, he could guess that the disciples of the Izumo Sect and the Wuchang Sect were the weakest among the disciples of the second-rate forces who entered the 'Martial Emperor's Secret Treasure'.
But that young man in black was actually able to kill them with his feet, and almost killed Su Li and the other two, which shocked him from the bottom of his heart.
"That person's strength is probably at least the second or third level of the Void Transformation Realm or above... The most important thing is that he understands the 'Impression of the Earth' and can use the 'Power of the Earth'!"
Huang Daniu said with a fearful expression.
"According to your statement... he is at least a third-level warrior of the Void Transformation Realm! Not only that, but the 'Earth Artistic Concept' he has comprehended is at least the 'third-level advanced level' or above."
Duan Lingtian guessed based on the 'knowledge' in the memory of Emperor Samsara.
"Forget it, let's not mention him anymore...it will be bad luck if we mention him!"
Huang Daniu shook his head, "Duan Lingtian, now the news that you have obtained the 'Secret Fragment' has spread... Otherwise, you should not go to the central area of the 'Martial Emperor's Secret Treasure'?"
"That's right! Duan Lingtian, what you have to do now is to protect yourself."
Su Li agreed.
"Brother Lingtian, I also think you shouldn't go... Once you get there, human greed will make you a target!"
Zhang Shouyong also said.
Duan Lingtian felt warm in his heart when he heard the three people's concern.
Just when he wanted to say something.
"Hmph! Are you Duan Lingtian?"
A cold snort came from an exit of the cave in front of Duan Lingtian and the four of them, and passed clearly into Duan Lingtian's ears.
Immediately afterwards, Duan Lingtian saw a black figure appearing on the path of the four of them.
This is a young man dressed in black, with a cold face and a pair of eyes that seem dim, but actually hide murderous intent, giving people an invisible sense of oppression.
Duan Lingtian raised his eyebrows and stretched out his mental power, intending to explore the opponent's cultivation level.
"It's you!!"
At this moment, Huang Daniu, Su Li and Zhang Shouyong's exclamations shocked Duan Lingtian's mental strength and almost collapsed, making Duan Lingtian full of curiosity from the bottom of his heart.
Huang Daniu and the other two, do you know this young man in black?
"Duan Lingtian, he is the person we mentioned to you before... But we didn't expect that he was nearby! And he even heard the conversation we just had."
