Invincible Divine Sword - Chapter 294

Chapter 294: Chapter 294 Soul Beast Forest

“`

Gathering the fourteen Strongest Heavenly Fates was much more difficult than condensing the fourteen Strongest Sword Hearts.

Indeed, to gather the fourteen Strongest Heavenly Fates was ten times more difficult than to condense the fourteen Strongest Sword Hearts.

And as for gathering the fourteen Primordial Holy Fruits, it was even harder—hundreds of times more challenging!

After a martial artist’s cultivation reached the Peak of the Emperor Realm, they could begin condensing a Heavenly Fate.

However, not all who reached the Peak of the Emperor Realm could condense a Heavenly Fate; the prerequisites were excruciating—just as not all martial artists could successfully condense a Sword Heart.

Those who could condense Heavenly Fates after reaching the Peak of the Emperor Realm were extremely rare.

It was even rarer to find one who could gather ten Heavenly Fates.

As for the fourteen Strongest Heavenly Fates, Yang Xiaotian had never heard of such a feat.

When a martial artist’s cultivation reached the Saint Realm Peak, they could start to condense Holy Fruits.

However, the conditions for condensing Holy Fruits were even harder than for Heavenly Fates, and amongst the many at the Saint Realm Peak that Yang Xiaotian had encountered, he had yet to meet anyone who could condense a Holy Fruit.

Not to mention fourteen Primordial Holy Fruits.

Primordial refers to the beginning of Heaven and Earth’s vital energies, to the very origin of the Heavenly Dao.

The Primordial Holy Fruit is also the mightiest among Holy Fruits.

Not a single person in the Martial Soul World throughout its countless years has been able to condense one successfully.

“The Junior of Azure God wants you to condense Divine Grade golden treasures, gather soul rings of a million years, the fourteen Strongest Sword Hearts, the fourteen Strongest Heavenly Fates, and the fourteen Primordial Holy Fruits to lay the most profound foundation between Heaven and Earth,” said Master Ding, his words heavy with significance: “Should you accomplish this, your ascension to godhood will allow you to traverse even further.”

“Later on, you’ll be thankful to the Junior of Azure God.”

“Moreover, you currently cannot assimilate the power of the Heart of Azure God; only when you reach the Saint Realm Peak would it be possible, otherwise, even one billionth of the Heart of Azure God’s power could make you burst a million times over.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaotian fell silent.

In truth, he understood these principles all too well.

Yet, knowing that the Heart of Azure God was right before his eyes, yet unattainable for fusion, left him somewhat unable to accept the situation.

After a moment, Yang Xiaotian’s state of mind calmed down.

From now on, he would have to be a hundred times more diligent.

There was no other way but to work hard.

He scanned the great hall, now he needed to search for the Nine-Tier Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water.

Before long, Yang Xiaotian found a pot of Nine-Tier Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water.

However, this golden pot looked somewhat odd no matter how one regarded it.

It resembled a chamber pot.

Yang Xiaotian’s expression was strange—he wondered if this could be the chamber pot once used by the elder Azure God himself.

Because of that suspicion, he gave it a sniff.

“There’s no need to smell it; this is an ancient Divine Artifact,” Master Ding remarked.

Yang Xiaotian was astonished: “An ancient Divine Artifact?!”

He took another look at the unremarkable pot in his hand.

“However, it’s a damaged artifact,” Master Ding continued: “The Innate Godly Formation inside is severely impaired; now it can only be used as a superior Space Divine Artifact.”

In other words, now it could only be used to hold things.

Yang Xiaotian couldn’t help feeling disappointed.

“Is there any way to repair this ancient Divine Artifact?” asked Yang Xiaotian.

Master Ding shook his head: “Repairing an Innate Godly Formation is harder than reaching the heavens; it would require dozens of innate divine materials. On the Azure God Continent, you might as well not even think about it.”

Yang Xiaotian nodded.

He had only asked on a whim.

He knew well enough the tremendous difficulty of repairing an Innate Godly Formation.

On the Azure God Continent, finding dozens of innate divine materials was an impossible task.

When he opened the golden pot, lightning energy surged and various phenomena evolved, showing shadows of ancient thunder gods and manifestations of myriad lightning divine beasts.

“`

Yang Xiaotian roughly estimated the amount of Nine-Colored Sword Qi in the pot, there should be more than two hundred mouthsful.

A million-year Soul Beast requires one hundred mouthsful.

That should be enough for Master Ding to deal with two million-year Soul Beasts, right?

With his Twin Supreme King Martial Soul, he needed to hunt two million-year Soul Beasts.

Yang Xiaotian asked the Medicine Cauldron.

“About right,” said the Medicine Cauldron.

Afterward, Yang Xiaotian searched the great hall again and found that apart from a pot of Tribulation Thunder Water, there was nothing else, so he had to exit from the Azure God Cave Mansion.

He would return after he had condensed the million-year Soul Rings, then open the second chamber and obtain the Sword of Azure God and the Azure God Sword Technique from within.

The Azure God Sword Technique was reputed to be the number one swordsmanship on the Azure God Continent, its power was still unknown.

When Yang Xiaotian emerged from the Azure God Cave Mansion, it hadn’t even been a day.

Yang Xiaotian began cultivating at the peak of Celestial Burial Mountain.

One day later, Celestial Burial Mountain closed.

Yang Xiaotian and the others were all transported out of the mountain.

As Yang Xiaotian was about to leave with Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor, Long Batian, and a few others after coming out of Celestial Burial Mountain, he ran into Wei Zongyuan and his party.

Originally, Yang Xiaotian did not want to bother with Wei Zongyuan and others, planning to go back and refine the Innate Sword Spirit and condense the ninth Sword Heart, but Liang Lin, one of Wei Zongyuan’s subordinates, stopped him.

Liang Lin, with an air of arrogance, said, “Yang Xiaotian, if you kneel down and admit defeat now, our young master might consider showing mercy to you in the battle two months from now.”

“Scram!” Yang Xiaotian said coldly.

With a casual flick from Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor, Liang Lin screamed miserably as he was shot backward, crashing into who knows how many large trees before disappearing from Yang Xiaotian’s sight.

Seeing how Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor easily flung Liang Lin out of sight with just a flick of his hand, Wei Zongyuan and the others all took a sharp intake of breath.

Chen Sha and others, who had been quite arrogant just moments before, were now pale and bloodless.

“Is there anything else?” Yang Xiaotian asked, looking at Wei Zongyuan, Chen Sha, and the others blocking his way.

Wei Zongyuan’s face changed color, and in the end, he stepped aside to make way.

Yang Xiaotian walked past Wei Zongyuan.

Watching Yang Xiaotian’s retreating figure, Wei Zongyuan felt utterly humiliated, his facial expression turned extremely ugly.

“This Yang Xiaotian is too arrogant!” Chen Sha said both angrily and hatefully, “Who does he think he is!”

Wei Zongyuan’s eyes also brimmed with killing intent, “In the battle two months from now, I will make him kneel and lick my toes!” Then he said, “Tomorrow, we will set off for the Soul Beast Forest!”

After two months, when he returned, he would trample Yang Xiaotian viciously under his feet!

He would make the entire Buddha Source Empire take notice of him.

After leaving, Yang Xiaotian found an Uninhabited Peak to start refining the seven Innate Sword Spirits he obtained in Celestial Burial Mountain.

Half a month later.

Yang Xiaotian’s chest was aglow as one after another, the Nine-Colored Sword Hearts surged with light; behind the eighth Sword Heart, the ninth Sword Heart flickered in and out, ready to consolidate but ultimately failing to form successfully.

At night, the Sword Qi around Yang Xiaotian dissipated, and he stopped.

He had refined all seven Innate Sword Spirits, but he still couldn’t condense the ninth Nine-Colored Sword Heart.

He had touched the threshold of the ninth Sword Heart, but he just couldn’t cross it.

Every time he tried to condense the ninth Sword Heart, he was blocked by an invisible force.

Consolidating the ninth Sword Heart turned out to be more difficult than he had imagined.

The ninth one was like this, not to mention the tenth and the eleventh ones.

However, now that he had touched the threshold, he would surely be able to successfully condense it next time.

That night, Yang Xiaotian left Celestial Burial Academy and headed for the Soul Beast Forest.

This time, he didn’t bring anyone, leaving Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor, Long Batian, and a few others to wait for his return to the academy.

Not far from Celestial Burial Academy, Yang Xiaotian directly rode the Azure Thunder Python, speeding towards the Soul Beast Forest at full force.
