Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 1972: Ancient Cold Abyss
"Senior Luo, I wonder why you invited us here?" Yang Xiaotian asked.
Luo Tian regained his composure, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I have found the Ancient Cold Abyss."
"The Ancient Cold Abyss!" Lei Zihao and the Golden Armored Qilin exclaimed.
The Nether Fish and Destroying Heaven Demon were also surprised.
The Ancient Cold Abyss is said to be the most mysterious place on the Ancestor Continent, an unknown land. It is rumored that the abyss formed during the Kaitian era, but only a handful of people have found it.
However, even if the Ancient Cold Abyss is found, no one has been able to enter it.
Because the entrance to the Ancient Cold Abyss is guarded by a Supreme Great Array, which is extremely difficult to break through.
Yang Xiaotian was intrigued.
Although no one has been able to enter the Ancient Cold Abyss, it is rumored to be filled with countless treasures, divine medicines everywhere, and there could even be three-hundred-million-year or four-hundred-million-year divine medicines.
"Although I found the Ancient Cold Abyss, it is guarded by the Supreme Great Array, and I cannot enter." Luo Tian pondered, "According to my years of research, one of the conditions to break this array requires an Eternal Dao Heart in the top ten."
Yang Xiaotian understood.
No wonder Luo Tian sought him out.
"I want to join forces with Young Master Yang, Brother Lei, and others to break this array at the entrance of the Ancient Cold Abyss. If we can enter, each of us can seek treasures by our fortune," Luo Tian said.
"However, to break this Supreme Great Array, not only do we need an Eternal Dao Heart in the top ten, but we also need a Thirty Layer Eternal Holy Body."
"I have searched for years, but I have not found a genius with an Eternal Holy Body."
Luo Tian looked troubled as he spoke.
The Destroying Heaven Demon and the Blood Demon Old Monster exchanged smiles.
Luo Tian was intrigued by everyone’s reaction.
"Coincidentally, our Holy Master possesses an Eternal Holy Body," the Blood Demon Old Monster said.
Luo Tian was taken aback, then looked at Yang Xiaotian with surprise and joy, "Young Master Yang possesses an Eternal Holy Body?!"
Yang Xiaotian nodded and smiled, then activated the Eternal Holy Body.
Instantly, the River of Ages surged, the eternal light of twenty-nine layers of time condensed, and the God of Time stood behind him.
Luo Tian, both surprised and delighted, exclaimed, "I never expected that Young Master Yang actually possesses an Eternal Holy Body!"
Although Yang Xiaotian’s Eternal Holy Body was only at the twenty-ninth layer, Luo Tian could tell that it was close to the thirtieth layer, and in time, Yang Xiaotian’s Eternal Holy Body would soon break through to the thirtieth layer.
"Good, if that’s the case, then we no longer need to search for a genius with an Eternal Holy Body," Luo Tian laughed, "Young Master Yang not only possesses a Primordial Dragon Holy Body and a Heavenly Dao Holy Body but also an Eternal Holy Body, truly unparalleled in talent!"
This was his genuine admiration and respect.
He certainly knew how difficult it was to cultivate any Defying Heaven’s Top Tier Holy Body.
Yet, Yang Xiaotian had mastered three types!
The Destroying Heaven Demon and the others chuckled quietly.
Later, Yang Xiaotian agreed with Luo Tian to return once his Eternal Holy Body reached the thirtieth layer, and then he left Luo Tian’s mansion with the Destroying Heaven Demon and the others.
Luo Tian watched Yang Xiaotian and his group leave until they disappeared at the end of the street.
After leaving Luo Tian’s mansion, Yang Xiaotian did not return to Lei Zihao’s residence but went with Lei Zihao to the Scripture Storing Hall at the Pharmacist Hall’s Main Hall.
He planned to refine the divine medicine he had purchased there while also practicing the Kaitian Level Holy Path in the Scripture Storing Hall.
The Kaitian Level Holy Path in the Scripture Storing Hall of the Pharmacist Hall wasn’t something just anyone could browse, but with Lei Zihao’s presence, the people of the Pharmacist Hall dared not impede him.
Lei Zihao wasn’t just one of the Four Great Medicine Gods on the Ancestor Continent; he also wielded supreme authority in the Pharmacist Hall’s Main Hall.
The Scripture Storing Hall had private chambers.
Yang Xiaotian procured a private chamber and began refining two-hundred-million-year-old divine medicine.
Meanwhile, he had his two Divine Avatars practice the Kaitian Level Holy Path Secret Books stored within the hall.
Yang Xiaotian’s activities in the Scripture Storing Hall quickly reached Luo Tian.
When he heard from his subordinates that Yang Xiaotian borrowed twenty Kaitian Level Holy Path Secret Books each day and returned them the next, only to borrow another twenty, Luo Tian was puzzled.
"He borrows twenty Kaitian Level Holy Path Secret Books each day, returns them the next day, and then borrows more. He does this daily?" Luo Tian asked, puzzled.
"Yes, Grand Hall Master," the subordinate from the Pharmacist Hall respectfully replied.
This left Luo Tian confused.
If Yang Xiaotian intended to practice the Kaitian Level Holy Path, why return the books the next day?
What was the point of skimming through them like this?
"Alright, you may leave," Luo Tian told them.
The actions of a prodigy like Yang Xiaotian, who possessed a Thirty Layer Primordial Dragon Holy Body and a Thirty Layer Heavenly Dao Holy Body, were closely monitored by powerful figures from various factions.
When people heard that Yang Xiaotian borrowed twenty Kaitian Level Holy Path Secret Books daily, returned them, and borrowed another twenty, they were perplexed.
Feng Junyu, Wu Hailing, and others were also confused.
Time passed.
Years went by.
In the private chamber of the Pharmacist Hall’s Main Hall, Yang Xiaotian not only refined all ten stalks of two-hundred-million-year divine medicine and one stalk of three-hundred-million-year divine medicine, but he also mastered all five thousand Kaitian Level Holy Path Secret Books in the Scripture Storing Hall.
With that, the number of Kaitian Level Holy Paths he possessed reached a staggering nine thousand six hundred plus!
He was only three thousand or so short of reaching ten thousand!
Ten thousand was considered the limit by many in the world.
After mastering all the Kaitian Level Holy Paths in the Pharmacist Hall’s Scripture Storing Hall, Yang Xiaotian didn’t stay any longer and left the Pharmacist Hall.
This round of cultivation not only brought him to the early stages of the Heavenly Saint Ninth Layer but also raised his Eternal Holy Body to the thirtieth layer.
Hence, he planned to accompany Luo Tian to the Ancient Cold Abyss.
There were still several years before the Demon Holy Scripture event.
If he could enter the Ancient Cold Abyss and discover more three-hundred-million-year divine medicine, he could further elevate his strength before the Demon Holy Scripture.
Luo Tian was studying the alchemical techniques Yang Xiaotian demonstrated in the Elixir Square when Yang Xiaotian arrived, announcing his breakthrough to the thirtieth layer of the Eternal Holy Body. Luo Tian was initially stunned but then overjoyed.
"Great! Young Master Yang, let’s ready ourselves and set off tomorrow. How does that sound?" Luo Tian said, excited.
"Sounds good." Yang Xiaotian agreed. After setting the departure time with Luo Tian, he returned to his residence to have Lei Zihao and the Yin Yang Ghost Master prepare.
The next day, Yang Xiaotian and Luo Tian each boarded their ships heading for the Ancient Cold Abyss.
When Luo Tian saw the ship Yang Xiaotian was on, Dragon’s Night, he was quite surprised.
The sight of Dragon’s Night made Luo Tian even more curious about Yang Xiaotian’s identity.
The Ancient Cold Abyss is extremely far, at the northernmost edge of the Ancestor Continent, nearly the continent’s end. Even with both their ships being super-class, it took nearly twenty days to arrive.
"Young Master Yang, that is the entrance to the Ancient Cold Abyss," Luo Tian pointed to the extreme freezing land ahead and said.
There, black cold air surged, the winds howled, and faintly, black lightning flickered.
