Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 1984: Even Those Demon Beasts Don’t Dare Kill Him
"Something happened?" Supreme Sima looked at his subordinate.
His subordinate’s expression puzzled him.
"The young master competed in alchemy in Myriad Demon City and lost!" the subordinate continued, still bowing his head.
"Oh." Supreme Sima raised an eyebrow, "Was his opponent a famous alchemy expert from the Pharmacist Hall?"
In his opinion, if the opponent was a well-known alchemy expert from the Pharmacist Hall, it was normal for his disciple to lose.
Though his disciple’s alchemy level was unmatched among the younger generation, he was still somewhat lacking compared to some long-established alchemy experts from the Pharmacist Hall.
"No." The subordinate’s voice was somewhat subdued, "The opponent was just a disciple at the Heavenly Saint Realm."
"What?! Heavenly Saint Realm!" Supreme Sima was taken aback, "Jie’er lost to a Heavenly Saint Realm?!"
"Yes, the other’s name is Yang Xiaotian," the subordinate continued, "He refined a Ten Tribulations Heavenly Grade Saint King Pill! And it was a Ten Tribulations Saint King Pill with ten Saint King’s Shadows!"
"Moreover, he refined four at once!"
Supreme Sima’s eyes widened, his face full of incredulity.
"Are you saying that a Heavenly Saint Realm can control Four Great Chaotic Holy Fires?" he asked in disbelief.
This was completely beyond his understanding.
"Yes, and they are the Four Innate Chaotic Holy Fires!" the subordinate respectfully replied, detailing each of the Chaotic Holy Fires controlled by Yang Xiaotian.
Supreme Sima was shocked to the core.
For a Heavenly Saint Realm to control even one Chaotic Holy Fire was already incredible, let alone controlling Four Innate Chaotic Holy Fires!
"And he passed through the Thirteenth Layer of the Elixir Great Array at the Pharmacist General City!" The subordinate continued, detailing every aspect of Yang Xiaotian’s exploits in the Elixir Great Array to Supreme Sima.
Upon hearing that Yang Xiaotian had simultaneously activated ten cauldron furnaces and successfully refined ten Sixth Tribulations Saint King Pills, Supreme Sima could no longer contain himself: "Where is he now?"
"In Myriad Demon City, he intends to participate in the Demon Holy Scripture."
"Let’s go to Myriad Demon City now!"
After saying this, Supreme Sima soared through the sky, swiftly flying toward Myriad Demon City.
His subordinates followed as quickly as they could.
Although the Demon Holy Scripture was about to begin, Supreme Sima and his entourage should be able to make it in time given their speed.
Since the Elixir Conference, Yang Xiaotian had barely left his residence, immersing himself in training.
The Yin Yang Ghost Master and others reported new developments to him regularly.
The first contender for the Demon Holy Scripture had naturally become a hot topic in Myriad Demon City.
Almost ninety-nine percent of people believed that the Batian Demon Son would clinch the top spot.
Similarly, the Nine Tribulations Young Master and Feng Junyu had also become subjects of much discussion.
The Nine Tribulations Young Master was not only the top alchemist of the younger generation on the Ancestor Continent; his strength could easily rank him in the top three.
Feng Junyu’s abilities were no less formidable.
"Any news about the Innate Origin?" Yang Xiaotian inquired.
Having trained over the last few days, he had completely refined the Innate Origin he had won from the Nine Tribulations Young Master.
However, to push his Supreme Holy Body and major Sacred Bodies to the Thirty Layer, he needed much more Innate Origin.
"No news on the Innate Origin," the Yin Yang Ghost Master shook his head, "Old Lu and others are fully investigating. We’ve contacted the ten largest merchant guilds on the Ancestor Continent; they’ll notify us as soon as there’s any news."
"Back then, the old master had quite a bit of Innate Origin," the Blood Demon Old Monster pondered, "There might be Innate Origin within the Myriad Demon Secret Realm."
Yang Xiaotian nodded, then asked the crowd if there was any news about the Lonely Sword Ghost and the Red Dragon Mad Demon.
"No news about the Lonely Sword Ghost and the Red Dragon Mad Demon, but the Lonely Sword Ghost’s disciple Duan Han might participate in the Demon Holy Scripture," the Blood Demon Old Monster noted, "This Duan Han is currently in the Batian Demon Son’s mansion and has a good relationship with him."
Learning of the close relationship between Duan Han and the Batian Demon Son surprised Yang Xiaotian, who then asked about the Mist Continent’s army.
The Mist Continent’s army was indeed massive, moving at a slow pace. However, it would reach Myriad Demon City before the Demon Holy Scripture ended.
"Once you enter the Ancestor Continent, split the army so as not to attract attention from the various forces of the Ancestor Continent," Yang Xiaotian instructed.
The Destroying Heaven Demon and others respectfully acknowledged this.
Time passed.
Finally, the day of the Demon Holy Scripture arrived.
Yang Xiaotian and his companions left the mansion, heading toward Myriad Demon Plaza.
Atop Myriad Demon Plaza stood a deity statue.
This was a statue of the Myriad Demon Saint.
Yang Xiaotian gazed intently at the statue of the Myriad Demon Saint.
The Myriad Demon Saint was the Chaos Demon Lord. He had formed a deep bond with him in the Lower Realm and continued their master-disciple relationship in the Holy Realm.
Their relationship was indeed profound.
Yang Xiaotian’s presence drew attention from powerful figures all across the plaza.
Many experts from the Buddha Sect respectfully bowed to Yang Xiaotian, "Greetings, Prince of Buddha."
The Three Lives Buddha Ancestor held an extremely high status in the Holy Realm Buddhism, and as his ordained successor, Yang Xiaotian received their reverence.
Yang Xiaotian nodded in acknowledgment to everyone.
In the crowd, the Young Sect Master of Skytop Demon Sect, Gong Lin, eyed Yang Xiaotian with a complex look filled with both hatred and fear.
Previously, at the Pharmacist General City’s Elixir Great Array, Yang Xiaotian had sent him flying with a single punch. Now, his friends often used this as a source of amusement.
"Do not worry, Young Sect Master. Once we enter the Myriad Demon Secret Realm, everything you’ve suffered will be repaid to Yang Xiaotian a hundredfold!" the Skytop Demon Sect disciple Li Jing declared.
Li Jing, at the Peak of the Saint King Tenth Layer, possessed formidable strength. Not only was he a direct disciple of the Skytop Demon Sect’s Ancient Ancestor, but he was also recognized as the strongest disciple of the sect in the Demon Holy Scripture.
Gong Lin nodded.
"Is that Yang Xiaotian?" Not far away, a young man clad in blood-red battle armor eyed Yang Xiaotian, asking his subordinates.
This young man was none other than Liu Yi, the Young Mansion Master of the Holy Demon Mansion.
The Holy Demon Mansion, like the Batian Demon Sect, was a colossal power on the Ancestor Continent, second only to the Batian Demon Sect within the demonic sects. Liu Yi, as the Young Mansion Master, was at par with the Batian Demon Son, sharing the same Peak status of the Saint King Tenth Layer.
"Yes, Young Mansion Master, that’s Yang Xiaotian. It’s unexpected that he truly would participate in the Demon Holy Scripture," a Supreme Elder of the Holy Demon Mansion hurriedly stepped forward to say.
Liu Yi shook his head with a smile, "A Heavenly Saint daring to participate in the Demon Holy Scripture; he truly does not know the meaning of death."
Another elder of the Holy Demon Mansion sneered, "Perhaps he thinks that as the Three Lives Buddha Ancestor’s ordained successor, no one would dare lay a finger on him, not even the demon beasts."
There was a collective chuckle from the crowd.
From a distance, Lin Yi, the head elder of the Three Pure Saint Sect, along with other experts, was also observing Yang Xiaotian. Lin Yi spoke of him, "What a pity for this Yang Xiaotian!"
Like others, he felt that Yang Xiaotian’s participation in the Demon Holy Scripture was akin to seeking death.
Even if the Batian Demon Son decided not to kill Yang Xiaotian, surviving in the Myriad Demon Secret Realm seemed impossible for him. Within the secret realm lived countless demon beasts at the Saint King Realm. For a Heavenly Saint, remaining alive for an hour would be a miracle, let alone surviving a month.
