Invincible Divine Sword

Chapter 166: How to Escape Far Away

Translator: 549690339

Zhang Hao had come to Tiandou Imperial City from the Divine Dragon Empire, and it certainly wasn’t to teach Yang Xiaotian a lesson.

He and his master had appeared in Tiandou Imperial City, specifically for the Dragon Vein of Black Snow Mountain.

Their confirmation of the Dragon Vein in Black Snow Mountain was the result of an extensive search.

“Guarding the Dragon Vein is a powerful Black Flood Dragon King, likely at the level of the Great Emperor Realm. Everyone, once we enter Black Snow Mountain, we must be careful,” Chen Lingyun said. “When the time comes, I will deal with that Black Flood Dragon King, and you will take the Dragon Vein.”

Zhang Hao and the others agreed.

All of them were strong practitioners above the Emperor Realm, flying through the air with great speed. They quickly entered the Red Moon Forest and moved closer to Black Snow Mountain.

“Are you sure that old man with Yang Xiaotian is the Poison Witch?” Chen Lingyun suddenly asked on the way.

Zhang Hao was taken aback before hurriedly responding, “Yes, Master, according to what Wang Fan said, the old man with Yang Xiaotian is indeed the Poison Witch from those years.”

Chen Lingyun’s eyes were cold. “Once we obtain the Dragon Vein and return from Black Snow Mountain, I will personally apprehend Elder Wu and bring him back to the Mahayana Spirit Sect for punishment!”

Back in the day, the Poison Witch had poisoned and killed quite a few disciples of the Mahayana Spirit Sect.

This was an account the Mahayana Spirit Sect had never forgotten.

“But what about Lord Lu Yi?” Zhang Hao hesitated.

“Lu Yi and Elder Wu have now turned against each other, and he will no longer concern himself with Elder Wu’s life or death,” Chen Lingyun said. “Previously, out of respect for Lu Yi, we didn’t lay hands on Elder Wu. Now, without Lu Yi’s protection, we can crush him however we want.”

“What about Yang Xiaotian?” asked Zhang Hao.

“We will not touch Yang Xiaotian. When the people from the Empire Pharmacist Hall arrive, they will deal with him,” Chen Lingyun said.

Meanwhile, Yang Xiaotian was practicing his swordsmanship while on the move.

After hard training at home for half a month, he had already mastered all six sword techniques of the sixth floor of the Sword Tower to a great level of achievement.

Now, only the Skywalking Thousand Swords remained at the Minor Achievement Realm.

One could fly through the air only upon reaching the Martial Emperor level, but if he could cultivate the Skywalking Thousand Swords to the Perfection Realm, he could leverage its divine power to fly with his sword while performing it.

In the future, this would allow him to travel much faster.

Standing by the bonfire, Yang Xiaotian waved his hands, and the Sword Qi of the Skywalking Thousand Swords wrapped around his body, like a thousand birds in flight, or fierce beasts soaring through the sky, like a fierce wind rushing to the heavens, or a gentle rain floating along.

The Azure Thunder Python, now in human form, sat by the bonfire, watching Yang Xiaotian practice his swordsmanship, filled with amazement.

It had lived long enough in the Red Moon Forest and had seen many masters of the Sword Dao, but in terms of talent and aptitude, not one could compare to Yang Xiaotian.

Even Zhu Jing, lauded as the number one Sword Dao Genius of the Zhu Family, could not compare.

Thinking of Zhu Jing filled the Azure Thunder Python with a murderous rage.

Once its injuries were healed, it vowed to ascend upon the Zhu Family and wreak havoc.

Taking a moment to catch its breath, the Azure Thunder Python looked at Yang Xiaotian practicing the sword, feeling grateful. If not for Yang Xiaotian, it would have died long ago.

“By following this young fellow, you’ll feel how lucky you are in the future,” Medicine Cauldron’s voice rang out. “This young fellow will become something beyond your imagination—an utmost existence.”

An utmost existence!

The Azure Thunder Python’s breathing quickened, “Does Master Ding mean that the young master will become a supreme Heavenly God in the future?!”

Above Martial God lies the Heavenly God Realm.

For a being like the Azure Thunder Python, the Heavenly God was an unattainable existence.

“A Heavenly God?” Medicine Cauldron laughed but did not explain further.

The Azure Thunder Python would understand in time.

After cultivating the Skywalking Swordsmanship for a while, the night deepened unknowingly. Yang Xiaotian sat down to begin his cultivation of the Primordial Dragon Art.

The night passed.

Yang Xiaotian and the Azure Thunder Python continued on their journey.

The Azure Thunder Python manifested its true form as the King of Divine Beasts, with Yang Xiaotian sitting atop its head as they flew.

From a distance, the Azure Thunder Python resembled a terrifyingly fast-moving mountain.

Even the head of the Azure Thunder Python was as large as a small hill; sitting on it, Yang Xiaotian was just a tiny dot, barely noticeable unless one looked closely.

As the Azure Thunder Python flew high in the sky, its presence as the King of Divine Beasts enveloped the area. All the fierce beasts of the Red Moon Forest cowered on the ground in fear, not daring to look up.

The Azure Thunder Python was like an emperor surveying its kingdom.

Long after the Azure Thunder Python and Yang Xiaotian had left, the fierce beasts of the Red Moon Forest still did not dare to rise; when they finally did, they fled far away.

Following behind from the Black Snow Mountain were Zhang Hao, Chen Lingyun, and others who also noticed the unusual behavior of these fierce beasts.

“Strange, why are all these fierce beasts fleeing so far away?” Zhang Hao wondered in surprise.

Chen Lingyun was puzzled as well.

It seemed something terrifying had caused these fierce beasts to flee in panic.

“Everyone, be careful,” Chen Lingyun warned the group.

The group agreed.

However, as they approached Black Snow Mountain, they encountered no attacks along the way.

By now, Yang Xiaotian had already entered Black Snow Mountain before Chen Lingyun, Zhang Hao, and the others.

Although spring had returned to the land, Black Snow Mountain was still bitterly cold, with blizzards more formidable than Yang Xiaotian had imagined.

Huge swirling blizzards swept across the sky constantly.

Their force was so strong that Yang Xiaotian struggled to stand still.

Moreover, these black snowstorms, when touching his body, were icy to the core, chilling to the bone and soul. Even as Yang Xiaotian circulated his True Yuan, he still felt as if his blood was freezing.

Finally, Yang Xiaotian summoned the Flame of Star.

The Flame of Star floated behind Yang Xiaotian, and only then did the chill abate.

Man and beast continued to fly forward.

Within Black Snow Mountain, there were also many powerful ice-element fierce beasts lurking, but with the Azure Thunder Python present, these powerful beasts did not dare to seek death by approaching.

Thus, as they delved deeper into Black Snow Mountain, Yang Xiaotian encountered no ambushes from fierce beasts.

Black Snow Mountain was vast, referred to as a mountain but actually a continuous range composed of countless peaks. It took Yang Xiaotian and the Azure Thunder Python over an hour to reach their destination.

Gazing at the towering black peak that reached into the clouds, the Azure Thunder Python said, “That Innate Sword Formation is inside the belly of this mountain.”

Yang Xiaotian nodded, then he and the Azure Thunder Python blasted open the cave entrance he had sealed off years ago and entered the belly of the mountain.

Inside the mountain, it was not as cold as outside, but rather warm, and even the wind had disappeared.

Man and beast kept moving inward.

After about half an hour of walking, the previously dark passage suddenly brightened.

Although he had yet to see the Innate Sword Formation, Yang Xiaotian could already feel a surging power of Sword Qi like the sea.

Yang Xiaotian was inwardly astonished.

The further forward they walked, the stronger the Sword Qi became, making even Yang Xiaotian feel almost submerged in Sword Qi.

The Sword Heart within Yang Xiaotian began to shine, and he walked forward step by step.

Finally, at the bottom of the belly of the mountain, they saw the Innate Sword Formation mentioned by Old Meng.

Gazing at the Innate Sword Formation before him, Yang Xiaotian was stunned.
