Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Seeing that Goddess Dugu agreed to his challenge, Qin Dangtian was as calm as ever. He came here today to ask about the dao, naturally, he also needed to defeat the heavenly deities of the sacred academy. There was no suspense to this at all.
“Please.” Qin Dangtian spoke. Goddess Dugu stood up. At this moment, the Divine Dao Platform radiated a bright radiance, illuminating the heavens and earth. Goddess Dugu’s silhouette flashed, soaring up into the air. In an instant, she appeared in the sky, in that boundlessly vast starry space.
At this moment, the Divine Dao Palace was sealed off. The people outside could see what was happening, but they could not enter the region. They wouldn’t be affected by the aftershocks as well.
The three heavenly deities of the sacred academy didn’t obstruct these students of the academy from witnessing the battle even if there was a possibility that they might lose.
Being able to witness a battle at the heavenly deity level would naturally be extremely beneficial to the students. This was also a method of transmitting the dao. This was an event that would rarely happen even in ten thousand years. It would be best to allow these outstanding students to spectate, allowing them to gain more ideas what the heavenly deity realm is about.
Qin Dangtian stood up. With a flash of his silhouette, he also flew up into the air and stood there in arrogance. At this moment, his black hair fluttered in the wind, exuding a sense of unexcelled imperiousness.
At this very moment, millions of Goddess Dugu appeared in the boundless starry space. Each of the clones created were the same as her, extremely beautiful. Because millions of Goddess Dugu appeared, their beauty actually caused the stars to lose their color.
Each clone of Goddess Dugu transformed into dao diagrams which shot towards Qin Dangtian with the speed of shooting stars. Each diagram contained the full power of Goddess Dugu’s cultivation base as they erupted at the same instant, wanting to devastate the entire starry space and break the dome of the heavens.
Qin Dangtian stood as stable as a mountain. At this moment, boundless treasure light appeared in his surroundings. Countless ancient characters floated around him, each of them containing endless might. The light they radiated could penetrate through space and in addition, each of these ancient characters was different. Qin Dangtian was now like a heavenly god, extremely imposing and holy as the light generated protected his body.
The ancient characters around him all lit up as a bright golden light erupted forth, engulfing everything. At this moment, space seemed to have stilled. The countless diagrams were fixed at their original locations, completely unable to move.
And at the same instant, the power which was unleashed through the other ancient characters directly enveloped Goddess Dugu and launched their attacks. In a short few moments, the countless dao diagrams manifested by Goddess Dugu have all disappeared. Only her real self still remained standing in the starry space.
“What power is that?” Goddess Dugu asked.
“I’ve said it before. My dao is the heavenly dao. The power of the heavenly dao is merely something that is there for humans to control. Since I can do so, am I not god? I represent the heavenly dao in this entire area and each of the ancient characters around me possessed the might of a different kind of heavenly dao. To defeat you, there’s no need for me to unleash too much of my strength.” Qin Dangtian calmly spoke. “I’ve also heard of Goddess Dugu’s ability before. You are proficient in cloning abilities but sadly, you have no way to counter me.”
The three heavenly deities of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy sighed silently with emotions. Each ancient character represented the power of a different type of heavenly dao? If that was the case, who at the heavenly deity level would be able to defeat this Heaven’s Son? Although back then the Skyorder Heavenly Deity was crippled upon his defeat to Qin Dangtian, not many people knew about the finer details of that battle.
Only now did they truly find out how powerful the Heaven’s Son is.
Goddess Dugu sighed in her heart, she stared at the ancient characters around Qin Dangtian as she spoke, “I’m inferior to you.”
She was a heavenly deity yet she admitted that she was inferior to Qin Dangtian.
Qin Wentian and the other students of the sacred academy felt shock in their hearts. Goddess Dugu has actually lost? The disparity between their strengths was pretty clear. Maybe, this wasn’t Qin Dangtian’s full might. What was Heaven’s Son? This was precisely Heaven’s Son. He was born extraordinary. Even for heavenly deities, he was superior to the vast majority of them.
“Your temperament is extraordinary seeing that you can calmly admit defeat. It’s just that why have you not admitted that the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy has the wrong concept about the heavenly daos?” Qin Dangtian calmly asked.
“Even if she was defeated, she would naturally still believe in the dao she has comprehended. What you think might be right, might not be right for others.” The old man replied. Qin Dangtian’s words were simply too arrogant. He wanted all of them to admit that their conception of heavenly dao was wrong.
“Haha, how stubborn. Since senior feels this way, why don’t the two remaining heavenly deities provide some guidance to me?” Qin Dangtian issued a challenge to the two other heavenly deities, asking them to provide guidance to him together. Did this mean that he wanted to fight against the two of them simultaneously?
“The two of us naturally won’t fight you together. However, if we fight against you alone, I’m afraid our endings would be the same as Dugu and would be defeated by you. Since that’s the case, there’s no need for any battle any longer.” The old man seated in the center calmly spoke. The students of the sacred academy felt their hearts trembling even more. They didn’t understand how powerful Qin Dangtian was. However, was he really so powerful that three heavenly deities of the sacred academy were willing to admit defeat?
Although they didn’t want to admit this, they had no choice. This was reality.
Some people were born different from others. They could easily suppress opponents on the same level.
“You even have the courage to admit defeat, but why are you all so afraid to admit that you have the wrong conceptions of heavenly dao? Are you afraid because the ability of the sacred academy to transmit the dao would be doubted from now on?” Qin Dangtian turned things up a notch, his tone was extremely domineering. He and Goddess Dugu have already descended from the air and returned to their seats. The sealing of the Divine Dao Platform has also already been removed.
The three heavenly deities were actually forced to such an extent where they had no reply. Their strengths were inferior to Qin Dangtian. Naturally, their words also lacked the persuasive factor.
“The Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy has been transmitting the dao for countless years. How can their prestige be doubted because of a battle with you? How ridiculous is that.” At this moment, a voice rang out. Qin Dangtian turned his gaze over, staring at the area outside the Divine Dao Platform as his eyes landed on Qin Wentian.
“Is there anything else more persuasive than the results of my battle?” Qin Dangtian emotionlessly asked. He didn’t place Qin Wentian’s words in his heart at all.
“Just because you won a victory, you want others to say that their insights were wrong and agree with you. If you stand at a height above everyone, you want all of us to have the same thinking as you, our thoughts and opinions cannot be the slightest bit different? This isn’t understanding the heavenly dao. This is being muddle-headed and tyrannical.”
Qin Dangtian upon seeing Qin Wentian continuing to speak, he directly asked, “Do you even know anything about the heavenly dao?”
Without waiting for Qin Wentian’s reply, he continued, “Do I know the heavenly dao or do you know the heavenly dao? You are just an ant who has yet to even come in contact with the heavenly dao. What qualifications do you have to speak before me? Shut your mouth.”
These words absolutely could cause people to shut up. However, Qin Wentian’s eyes were as resolute as ever. He stared at the deep eyes of Qin Dangtian as he calmly continued, “Just like what you said earlier, one’s comprehension and insights about the dao might not be inferior to those who are more senior. When the various heavenly deities of the sacred academy started to transmit dao teachings, I’m afraid you weren’t even born yet. However, you are actually this arrogant before them now. A thousand years later, I will make sure to tell you the same thing. At that time, we shall see if it is me who understands the heavenly dao, or if it is you.”
“A thousand years?” A mocking light flashed through Qin Dangtian’s eyes. During his path of cultivation, he has seen too many arrogant experts before. However, all of them were trampled by him eventually. This Qin Wentian would not be an exception either. He couldn’t be bothered to bother with him. He turned his head, no longer casting another glance at Qin Wentian. He didn’t know who this Qingcheng Realmlord was, he has never heard of him before. As long as he is not a heavenly deity, Qin Dangtian couldn’t be bothered to remember him.
“Is the headmaster not in the sacred academy?” Qin Dangtian suddenly asked.
The three heavenly deities glanced at each other. “Why are you asking this for?”
Could it be Qin Dangtian even wanted to challenge the headmaster?
Although his talent was strong, this was simply impossible. The current Qin Dangtian doesn’t have this qualifications yet, leaving aside the future.
“Since seniors admit that you three are inferior to me. In that case, can I enter that place?” Qin Dangtian asked. A bright light gleamed in the eyes of all three heavenly deities as they stared at Qin Dangtian. Was this the true purpose of why he came here?
Qin Dangtian actually was extremely ambitions, wanting to enter that legendary location.
“You are the Heaven’s Son and have already reached the heavenly deity realm. You are also not a student of the sacred academy, there’s naturally no way for you to enter.” The old man spoke.
“I’ve been pursuing the limits of dao my entire life. Now that I’m a heavenly deity, my insights are even deeper now, wouldn’t it be more beneficial to me if I was to enter at my current level? Also, I came to the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy to ask about the dao, in a sense, I’m also seeking the dao. There shouldn’t be a problem for me to become a student of the sacred academy as long as the academy permits, right?” Qin Dangtian calmly stared at them. “Since the three seniors all admit that you are inferior to me. May I ask is there anyone else that’s more qualified than me to enter that legendary place?”
“You are twisting words.” The old man spoke.
“Seems like the sacred academy is truly unworthy of their reputation. I will stay for three months at the Daoask Lodge and wait for all of you to seek the sacred academy’s headmaster’s opinion. If he permits it, I shall come here again. If he doesn’t, everyone under the heavens would know that the slogan of the sacred academy is simply bullshit. Guiding everyone under the heavens irrespective of their backgrounds? Why would people wish to learn the wrong concepts?”
After speaking, Qin Dangtian stood up again. “Farewell.”
After he spoke, he directly turned and left the Divine Dao Platform.
Goddess Nichang quietly watched everything and didn’t mention a single word from the start until the end. Upon seeing Qin Dangtian leaving, she naturally left with him as well. The three heavenly deities stared at Qin Dangtian’s back, and all of them didn’t know what to say.
Today, the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy was humiliated because of one person.
As the saying goes, there would be supreme geniuses in every successive generation. The juniors are to be feared indeed.
In the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, who could obstruct the rise of Heaven’s Son? The Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy would truly be in trouble soon.
Qin Wentian stared at the departing back of Qin Dangtian. When Qin Dangtian left, he didn’t even cast a glance at Qin Wentian. It was like in Qin Dangtian’s eyes, Qin Wentian was merely an extremely insignificant character.
He was the Heaven’s Son, the future lord of the Qin Clan. How could a world overlord be in his eyes? Qin Dangtian right now basically couldn’t imagine that this particular world overlord would determine his fate in the future, becoming his greatest enemy destined by fate.
