Invincible Divine Sword - Chapter 496
Chapter 496: 496
Upon learning that the Sword of Azure God was in Yang Xiaotian’s possession, both the Undying Death God and Yan Ping, the Son of Nether God, were as if they had swallowed a dead fly.
For them, anyone holding the Sword of Azure God was preferable to Yang Xiaotian.
The last thing they wanted to see was Yang Xiaotian getting the Sword of Azure God, yet it was precisely in his hands.
“Lord Undying, we should ask the Heart Demon Lord to take action,” Yan Ping said with a gloomy expression.
The Undying Death God frowned, “Heart Demon’s injuries haven’t fully healed yet, and it will be over a year before he comes out of seclusion.”
“Now Yang Xiaotian has already cultivated two Primordial Heaven Destinies. If another year passes and Heart Demon Lord comes out of seclusion, it will be even more difficult to kill him!” Yan Ping voiced his concerns, “With Yang Xiaotian’s terrifying speed of cultivation, by then, he might have already condensed seven or eight Primordial Heaven Destinies!”
A single Primordial Heaven Destiny measures twelve thousand nine hundred and sixty li!
Equivalent to fourteen Ninefold Heaven Destinies!
The thought of Yang Xiaotian condensing seven or eight Primordial Heaven Destinies was terrifying.
Even Yan Ping was shivering in fear.
The Undying Death God was also feeling heavy-hearted.
In the past, even when facing the Lord of Azure God, who had broken through to the pinnacle of the Divine Spirit’s tenfold, his mood had never been this heavy.
Now, facing a junior who had just reached the second level of the Emperor Realm, his mood was exceedingly somber.
“Lord Undying, I have learned that Yang Xiaotian and the Dark Dragon are heading overseas,” Yan Ping continued, “This is a good opportunity to kill Yang Xiaotian.”
“If we miss this chance, once he returns to the Azure God Mansion, it will be difficult to kill him.”
The eyes of the Undying Death God flickered, “I will go see the old Heart Demon and see if he can make time to kill Yang Xiaotian.” With that, he disappeared in a flash.
Driven by supreme Spirit Stones, the Abyssal Spaceship turned into a streak of light and flew at great speed through the high skies.
Yang Xiaotian, feeling the speed of the Abyssal Spaceship, suddenly thought it was still too slow.
“I wonder if the Netherworld Treasure Trove has any holy-grade Spirit Stones,” Yang Xiaotian wondered aloud.
Above supreme Spirit Stones are holy-grade Spirit Stones.
If the Abyssal Spaceship were driven by holy-grade Spirit Stones, its speed would be even faster, at least much faster than now.
Deng Feng was stunned for a moment but then said, “I saw in an ancient book of the Netherworld Demon Sect that the Shocking Heaven Sword God had obtained a holy-grade Spirit Vein.”
“A holy-grade Spirit Vein!” Yang Xiaotian’s spirits lifted.
He hadn’t expected the Netherworld Demon Sect to possess a holy-grade Spirit Vein.
Deng Feng nodded, “Yes, a holy-grade Spirit Vein, and furthermore, a holy-grade Demon Spirit Vein. It was with this holy-grade Demon Spirit Vein that the Netherworld Demon Sect grew stronger and stronger, eventually becoming the number one Demon Sect in the Azure God Continent.”
If there were a holy-grade Spirit Vein, disciples could swallow the Holy Spirit Aura for cultivation, advancing a thousand li in a day; the role of this holy-grade Spirit Vein in a year when the Netherworld Demon Sect became the number one on the Azure God Continent was indisputable.
“However, that holy-grade Demon Spirit Vein might have been nearly depleted by now. It’s just unknown if there are any leftovers in the Netherworld Treasure Trove,” said Deng Feng.
“If Your Majesty wishes to find holy-grade Spirit Stones, the Destiny Temple has them,” Dark Dragon suddenly said.
“The Destiny Temple!” Yang Xiaotian was startled.
He remembered that Tan Jie, the ancient ancestor of the Yin Wind Sect, had mentioned before that Poison Dragon Palace’s Heavenly Fate Divine Stone was found in the Destiny Temple a few years ago.
“Yes, it is the Destiny Temple of the Goddess of Destiny,” Dark Dragon said, “However, the Destiny Temple only opens once every ten years, and the next opening won’t be until a year from now.”
The Goddess of Destiny was an extremely powerful goddess from the ancient times, even before the Lord of Azure God, and the Lord of Azure God himself had entered the Destiny Temple in the past and acquired the Heavenly Fate Divine Stone.
On the journey that followed, Yang Xiaotian spent almost all of his time cultivating in secret.
He had already broken through to the late peak of the second level of the Emperor Realm. With just one more breakthrough, he would reach the third level of the Emperor Realm!
At that point, he would be able to bear the third Primordial Heaven Destiny.
Now that the Sword of Azure God in his possession had been exposed, the likes of the Undying Death God probably wanted him dead even more.
Therefore, he needed to enhance his strength as soon as possible.
Yang Xiaotian consumed an Elixir of the Second Calamity of the Heavenly Emperor grade, and immediately, the elixir transformed into a surging heat flow. Under the operation of the Primordial Dragon Art, it continuously converted into the True Essence of his Divine Sea.
The True Essence in Yang Xiaotian’s Divine Sea grew stronger and stronger.
One night passed.
When he stopped cultivating, he could clearly feel that the True Essence in his Divine Sea had thickened significantly.
However, even with the Elixir of the Second Calamity of the Heavenly Emperor grade, breaking through to the third layer of the Emperor Realm was not an easy task. According to Yang Xiaotian’s estimate, he would need at least another month before he could make that breakthrough.
Ten days blinked past.
They arrived at the coastline of the Azure God Continent.
Beyond that lay the vast ocean.
While passing through a coastal village, Yang Xiaotian saw that the sky had darkened and stopped with everyone to rest.
Constantly driving the spaceship high in the sky, Yang Xiaotian always felt uneasy.
Being on the ground gave him a greater sense of security.
The night was peaceful.
The village was lush with green grass.
In the distant fields, the occasional sound of frogs could be heard.
As Yang Xiaotian and his companions were sitting around the campfire, an elderly figure robed in darkness emerged from the night. The elder had an average appearance. The Heartfelt Demon Ape glanced at him and didn’t care much, but the Dark Dragon’s eyes narrowed, and he stood up abruptly, as dark power surged like a tempest, as if facing a formidable enemy.
Seeing the Dark Dragon’s reaction, Deng Feng and the others were also startled into standing, watching the elder intently.
Yang Xiaotian also stood up.
Facing the tempest of dark power from the Dark Dragon, the elder appeared completely indifferent. He did not look at the Dark Dragon and the others but rather turned his gaze towards Yang Xiaotian, and his eyes surprisingly emitted strands of black Demonic Qi.
Seeing this black Demonic Qi, Yang Xiaotian immediately knew who the newcomer was.
“Dao Heart Demon Seed! Ancient Heart Demon!” Yang Xiaotian’s eyes were heavy with seriousness.
The newcomer was, in fact, the Ancient Heart Demon who had escaped from the depths of the Fan Family Forbidden Ground some days before.
An Ancient Divine being whose strength was even above the Undying Death God.
“Hehe, little guy, you have good eyesight,” the Ancient Heart Demon started laughing, his smile eerie and his laughter even more bizarre, his voice making one feel drowsy.
Not only Yang Xiaotian, but even the Dark Dragon, the Heartfelt Demon Ape, Deng Feng, and others, all felt drowsy.
With only a single sentence from the Ancient Heart Demon, Yang Xiaotian and the others were all trapped in an illusion.
This demonstrated the terror of the Dao Heart Demon Body Scripture of the Ancient Heart Demon.
Before Yang Xiaotian’s eyes, it was as if countless demon shadows appeared, layers upon layers, more and more, endless and boundless.
The Ancient Heart Demon approached Yang Xiaotian, looking at him already trapped in the illusion of demon shadows, his eyes gleaming with a bloodthirsty light: “Eternal Divine Body, Soul Ring of a million years, such a pity! Today, all these legends will end at my hands!” After saying that, a Sword Qi appeared in his hand, aiming to pierce Yang Xiaotian’s throat.
Just at that moment, suddenly, Master Ding enshrouded Yang Xiaotian’s entire body in a golden light.
It blocked the Sword Qi from the Ancient Heart Demon.
The Ancient Heart Demon was taken aback.
Following that, Yang Xiaotian’s Divine Sea World burst forth with Primordial Heaven Destiny Golden Light. Yang Xiaotian, originally trapped in the illusion of demon shadows, suddenly came to his senses.
As soon as he regained consciousness, Yang Xiaotian roared, “Master Ding!”
Instantly, a huge cauldron shot into the sky like a meteor and thunderously fell.
