Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2038: Comprehending the Holy Realm Chaotic King Law

The Dragon Corpse Beast’s wounds had mended by seventy to eighty percent after a few months of rest.

Once the Dragon Corpse Beast had reached this level of recovery, Yang Xiaotian and his companions departed for the Ancient Cold Abyss, eventually reaching the sacred Buddha Land of the Present Buddha.

The Dark Abyss Giant Beast had remained on guard outside the Buddha Land since Yang Xiaotian’s previous departure. It expressed some amazement at how quickly Yang Xiaotian had come back.

Was it possible that Yang Xiaotian had already reached the Fourteenth Layer of the Three Thousand Innate Buddha Ancestor Power?

Only a little over a century had passed since Yang Xiaotian left.

The beast had estimated that achieving the Fourteenth Layer of the Three Thousand Innate Buddha Ancestor Power would require at least several millennia of dedicated Cultivation.

Rising to its feet, the giant beast’s eyes landed on the Dragon Corpse Beast standing next to Yang Xiaotian. It shouted in shock, "Little Corpse?!"

Little Corpse?

The name left Yang Xiaotian and his followers stunned.

It was a surprise to find that the Dark Abyss Giant Beast recognized the Dragon Corpse Beast, and their relationship seemed quite close.

The Dragon Corpse Beast was just as startled to find the other creature there. "Predecessor Abyss, what brings you to this place?"

In response to the Dragon Corpse Beast's question, the Dark Abyss Giant Beast looked toward the statue of the Present Buddha. "It is a long story. I once entered a wager with that old Buddha and lost by a single move. I was trapped by restrictions and have been held captive here for countless years."

"Only the Fourteenth Layer of the Innate Buddha Ancestor Power possesses the ability to break these seals now."

Turning its attention to Yang Xiaotian, it asked, "Little one, have you truly mastered the Fourteenth Layer of the Innate Buddha Ancestor Power?"

"It is true; my Innate Buddha Ancestor Power has indeed reached the Fourteenth Layer," Yang Xiaotian confirmed with a nod.

The Dark Abyss Giant Beast was dazed. It had only asked the question in passing, never dreaming that Yang Xiaotian had actually succeeded in his Cultivation of the Fourteenth Layer.

After the initial shock wore off, the beast stood up suddenly, radiating joy and excitement. "Your Innate Buddha Ancestor Power has really reached the Fourteenth Layer!" It burst into a loud, boisterous laugh. "Excellent, truly excellent!"

"I never imagined you would master the Fourteenth Layer of the Innate Buddha Ancestor Power in such a short time!"

Then, with great urgency, it pleaded, "Little one, be quick and help me break these restrictions!"

Having been stuck in the gloom of the Ancient Cold Abyss for thousands of years, it was desperate to escape.

"Predecessor must take an oath first," Yang Xiaotian stated.

While he had agreed to break the seals upon his return, the condition was that the beast would serve him for ten thousand years.

Since a simple spoken promise could be broken, he required the beast to swear a formal oath.

The Dark Abyss Giant Beast chuckled. "Have no fear! Since I, old Abyss, gave my word to serve you for ten thousand years, I shall keep it!" It then swore a solemn oath by the Heavenly Dao, vowing to serve Yang Xiaotian for ten thousand years provided he removed the restrictions and allowed it to leave the Ancient Cold Abyss.

Following the oath, and to ensure Yang Xiaotian’s trust, it produced a Space Divine Artifact and handed it over. "This contains my entire life’s wealth. Should I break my promise, all of this belongs to you!"

"Once the ten thousand years have passed and I have completed my service, you shall return my fortune to me."

Upon opening the Space Divine Artifact, Yang Xiaotian saw it was packed with an incredible number of treasures.

The sheer value of the items was enough to stir the hearts of even the Dragon Corpse Beast and the Destroying Heaven Demon.

With the Space Divine Artifact safely tucked away, Yang Xiaotian began using his Innate Buddha Ancestor Power to dissolve the seals inside the beast’s body.

Feeling the restrictions vanish, the Dark Abyss Giant Beast was overwhelmed with happiness, letting out a massive roar toward the heavens to release its joy.

The thunderous howl of the Dark Abyss Giant Beast sent waves of terror through the creatures living within the Ancient Cold Abyss.

With the beast finally liberated, Yang Xiaotian and his group moved into the Buddha Land of the Present Buddha.

Standing before the statue of the Present Buddha once more, Yang Xiaotian gave a respectful salute before channeling the Fourteenth Layer of his Innate Buddha Ancestor Power.

As the power of the Fourteenth Layer flowed into the stone, a radiant light shimmered, and a Buddha’s Staff emerged from the statue.

"The Contemporary Buddha Staff!"

Everyone was shocked at the sight of the legendary weapon.

The Contemporary Buddha Staff was a symbol of the highest authority within the Holy Realm Buddhism and was the personal weapon of the Present Buddha.

No one had guessed it was hidden inside the statue all along!

Shortly after the staff appeared, a Jade Vase flew out as well.

Finally, a Buddha Ring followed them.

The ring was carved with complex Buddhist runes.

"The Three Thousand Buddha Precepts!"

Like the staff, the Three Thousand Buddha Precepts were holy relics of the Holy Realm Buddhism, created by the hands of the Present Buddha himself.

However, the Buddha’s Kasaya was nowhere to be found.

Yang Xiaotian accepted the Buddha’s Staff, the Buddha Ring, and the Jade Vase with immense satisfaction. Since the staff and the ring held the Buddha Force of the Present Buddha, they would greatly assist his future Cultivation of the Innate Buddha Ancestor Power.

He then unsealed the Jade Vase.

Immediately, thick clouds of Chaos Qi began to pour out.

"Source of Chaos!"

Just as Master Ding had predicted, the second stage of the Present Buddha’s legacy provided a significant quantity of the Source of Chaos.

With this resource, he hoped his Divine Soul Power would finally be strong enough to grasp the Holy Realm Chaotic King Law.

Having claimed the second-layer rewards, Yang Xiaotian bowed once more to the Present Buddha statue in a show of deep respect.

To the astonishment of everyone present, the statue began to dissolve into shimmering golden sparks of Buddha light after the salute, fading away into the atmosphere.

The statue had clearly been waiting for its chosen successor. Now that Yang Xiaotian had claimed the twofold opportunity, its purpose was fulfilled.

Though the statue was gone, the Buddha Land remained, and its holy light continued to brighten the horizon.

Yang Xiaotian then guided his group out of the Ancient Cold Abyss.

As they stepped into the sunlight, the Dark Abyss Giant Beast looked around with pure delight; the air outside felt so crisp and fresh that it joked even a foul smell would seem like a fragrance to it now.

Naturally, the group remained silent and respectful.

Yang Xiaotian and his companions made their way back to Myriad Demon City.

Immediately upon his return, he entered a state of secluded Cultivation to begin refining the Source of Chaos.

His goal this time was to push his Divine Soul Power to the limit so he could finally perceive the Holy Realm Chaotic King Law.

Day by day, Yang Xiaotian used the Source of Chaos to bolster his Divine Soul Power, while his two Divine Avatars worked on perfecting his Sacred Bodies.

Several years slipped by.

One afternoon, after finishing a session of refining the Source of Chaos, Yang Xiaotian reached out with his Divine Soul Power to connect with the laws of the Holy Realm.

His Divine Soul Power traveled through the layers of the void until it reached the realm of Chaos Laws. Previously, this was the point where his power had been blocked.

But this time, his power surged forward without meeting any resistance.

After crossing the space of Chaos Laws, Yang Xiaotian’s Divine Soul Power finally entered the Chaos King Law Space.

In this realm, every Chaos King Law resembled a massive golden pillar reaching into infinity.

The scale of a single Chaos King Law was so immense that Yang Xiaotian found it hard to fathom how colossal the Chaotic King Totem—composed of twelve thousand nine hundred and sixty such laws—would actually be!

Even so, Yang Xiaotian did not rush to create the Chaotic King Totem. Instead, he continued to refine the Source of Chaos to further fortify his Divine Soul Power, ensuring his foundation was perfectly secure.
