Invincible Divine Sword - Chapter 292
Chapter 292: Chapter 292: Two Sword Gods Watching the Battle
“`
“What, the Demon Sky Sword God is also coming to Celestial Burial Academy!” Both Long Batian and the trio of Li Yutian were shocked when they received the news.
“I didn’t expect that the Green Lotus Sword Deity would also come to Celestial Burial Academy!” the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor exclaimed excitedly.
Although the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor was already a Demigod, he equally worshipped the Green Lotus Sword Deity.
“With both mighty Sword Gods coming to Celestial Burial Academy, this is absolutely an unprecedented grand occasion for us!” Long Batian’s eyes blazed with passion.
Yang Xiaotian was also very surprised; he hadn’t expected the Demon Sky Sword God and his senior brother, the Green Lotus Sword Deity, to visit the Celestial Burial Academy.
“What do you think, why would the two great Sword Gods suddenly decide to come to Celestial Burial Academy?” After a pause, Phoenix Lady suddenly asked, “Could it be that they are coming for the young master?”
Long Batian and the others all looked towards Yang Xiaotian.
The Green Lotus Sword Deity had left the Celestial Burial Academy over a thousand years ago, and the Demon Sky Sword God had been away even longer. Now that both Sword Gods were suddenly returning, it inevitably led to speculation.
During Yang Xiaotian’s talent assessment, he broke through the 7,000 mark, achieving an astonishing 7,321!
After twenty days, this news had almost spread throughout the entire Buddha Source Empire.
The entire Buddha Source Empire was in a state of shock.
It wouldn’t be surprising if the Demon Sky Sword God and Green Lotus Sword Deity were coming for Yang Xiaotian.
“Wei Zongyuan is a direct disciple of the Demon Sky Sword God; could it be that the Demon Sky Sword God is coming to stand up for his disciple?” Shi Huang asked with a mix of surprise and suspicion.
The faces of Long Batian and the others changed drastically.
If the Demon Sky Sword God really was coming to stand up for his disciple, who in Celestial Burial Academy could withstand him?
It’s likely that no one would be able to stop the Demon Sky Sword God!
The two Divine Spirits accompanying their young master would probably be unable to resist; the Demon Sky Sword God had once slain four Divine Spirit Powerhouses with a single strike of his sword!
And that was over two thousand years ago.
If the Demon Sky Sword God was that terrifyingly powerful over two thousand years ago, let alone now.
“The Demon Sky Sword God is a legendary Sword God; it’s impossible that he would take action against the young master over his disciple’s matters,” the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor said, shaking his head.
However, though he said this, nobody could truly know the thoughts of the Demon Sky Sword God.
The Demon Sky Sword God is a person who could be both righteous and evil, and he acts entirely according to his own preferences.
Nevertheless, the concerns of Long Batian and the others were unnecessary. Soon, word spread from the Celestial Burial Academy that the Demon Sky Sword God and Green Lotus Sword Deity were coming for the upcoming duel between Yang Xiaotian and Wei Zongyuan, three months from now.
The two were coming to spectate.
“Tsk, the duel between Yang Xiaotian and Wei Zongyuan being watched by two great Sword Gods, what an honor!”
“I’ve heard that not only are the two great Sword Gods coming to watch, but mighty figures from the Peacock Clan will also be attending!”
“What, even powerhouses from the Peacock Clan will come?!”
A single stone caused a thousand ripples.
The Peacock Clan is one of the strongest clans in the Buddha Source Empire.
They have an unshakeable supreme status within the Buddha Source Empire.
The Peacock Clan wouldn’t leave Peacock Mountain for trivial matters.
Now that they were coming to witness the duel, it was bound to cause a stir.
“It’s not just the Peacock Clan; I’ve heard that high-level experts from the Buddha Source Imperial Family will also come, and even the Empire itself will send its high-level experts!”
One shocking piece of news after another sent the millions of students of Celestial Burial Academy into a frenzy.
The simultaneous appearance of the Demon Sky Sword God, Green Lotus Sword Deity, Peacock Clan, Buddha Source Imperial Family, and other high-level experts from the Empire at Celestial Burial Academy was an astonishing event.
Upon hearing the news, Yang Xiaotian was also surprised. He hadn’t expected his duel with Wei Zongyuan to attract so many high-level experts to watch.
But on second thought, it seemed normal.
Both Wei Zongyuan and he had broken the 6,000 mark in their talents, both being rare miracles of the ages. Their battle was naturally under the close watch of countless powerhouses.
The high-level experts from all around were probably also coming to see his true talent.
“`
They were curious about what kind of Martial Soul he had.
They wanted to see what kind of Golden Core he had condensed.
They even wanted to see his Sword Dao Talent.
“Want to see my Martial Soul and Golden Core, huh?” Yang Xiaotian mused to himself.
It had been many years since he had last revealed his Martial Soul to anyone.
Just as the matters of the Demon Sky Sword God and the Green Lotus Sword Deity were stirring up quite a buzz, suddenly, someone announced, “Wei Zongyuan’s King Unmoved Sword Body has made a breakthrough and reached the tenth level!”
Upon the news spreading, many powerful beings were astonished.
The first nine levels of the King Unmoved Sword Body were the most difficult to cultivate.
But once a breakthrough to the tenth level was made, the power would increase exponentially.
By then, wherever the sword intent and Sword Qi reached, the speed would be unimaginable for most people.
“I didn’t expect that Wei Zongyuan’s King Unmoved Sword Body would break through to the tenth level!” Wang Qing, the dean of Celestial Burial Academy, was also surprised upon hearing the news.
“I wonder who will win between Wei Zongyuan and Yang Xiaotian?” An academy elder was quite curious about this.
Wang Qing couldn’t answer that question.
If it had been before, he would have thought Yang Xiaotian would surely win, but now that Wei Zongyuan’s King Unmoved Sword Body had broken through to the tenth level, it was difficult to say.
As the strongest sword body of the Peacock Clan, the King Unmoved Sword Body’s power once breaking through the tenth level would be absolutely astonishing, and as the dean of Celestial Burial Academy, he was certainly aware of its formidability.
Hearing that Wei Zongyuan had cultivated the King Unmoved Sword Body to the tenth level didn’t change Yang Xiaotian’s expression in the slightest.
The night was long.
The next day, sunlight shone upon the land.
Yang Xiaotian arrived at Celestial Burial Mountain with Long Batian and four others.
In order not to cause a stir, Yang Xiaotian had the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor wear a ghost-faced mask.
When they arrived at Celestial Burial Mountain, Yang Xiaotian ran into Wei Zongyuan.
Wei Zongyuan was accompanied by Liang Lin, Chen Sha, and others, clearly also there to ascend Celestial Burial Mountain.
Seeing Yang Xiaotian, Wei Zongyuan and his group naturally showed unpleasant faces.
Especially Chen Sha, who was shocked and resentful towards Yang Xiaotian.
Liang Lin spoke up, “Yang Xiaotian, my young master’s King Unmoved Sword Body has reached the tenth level. In the duel two months from now, you are destined to lose!”
“Is that so,” Yang Xiaotian responded, unmoved.
Wei Zongyuan looked down at Yang Xiaotian, “Yang Xiaotian, I hope you can withstand my three swords at that time.”
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaotian smiled and replied, “I hope you can withstand my one punch then.”
When Yang Xiaotian mentioned the punch, Long Batian, Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor, and the others trembled in their bellies.
Now, whenever Yang Xiaotian talked about punching, they would think of the Asura Force, recalling that utterly inhumane scene.
Seeing the reaction of Long Batian and the others, Wei Zongyuan found it strange, but he didn’t give it much thought.
After a while, Celestial Burial Mountain opened, and Yang Xiaotian, Long Batian, the Phoenix Lady, and the others began their ascent while the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor waited at the foot of the mountain for Yang Xiaotian.
Upon entering Celestial Burial Mountain, Yang Xiaotian immediately felt an astonishing Aura of Sword Spirit.
Yang Xiaotian did not activate the Primordial Dragon Art, allowing the Aura of Sword Spirit to hammer his body incessantly, clanking as they struck. Then, he separated from Long Batian and the other four to make his way alone towards the summit of Celestial Burial Mountain.
In addition to the Aura of Sword Spirit, Celestial Burial Mountain was also shrouded in dense Spiritual Energy that, year after year, remained untransformed, resembling white misty water.
Therefore, within Celestial Burial Mountain, one could only see a hundred meters ahead.
After entering Celestial Burial Mountain, Wei Zongyuan also parted ways with Liang Lin, Chen Sha, and others, heading towards the summit just like Yang Xiaotian.
The closer to the summit, the stronger the Aura of Sword Spirit became. The Aura of Sword Spirit felt like countless sharp swords striking Yang Xiaotian’s body. At first, Yang Xiaotian was unaffected, but as the Aura of Sword Spirit grew stronger, his body began to show sword marks.
