Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2056: 2056: 100,000!

Previously on Invincible Divine Sword...
Shockwaves ripple through the Assessment Hall as Yang Xiaotian reveals he possesses the First Dao Heart of Eternity, a legendary feat surpassing even the Master of the Holy Realm. Despite this revelation, observers remain skeptical of his potential in the third round of the assessment, which requires the slaughter of ten thousand powerful beasts within a secret realm. Seeking to claim rare divine medicines as rewards, Yang Xiaotian enters the realm and is immediately surrounded by four high-level Holy Emperor beasts. To the astonishment of everyone watching, he unleashes ten thousand Kaitian Level Holy Paths, a display of power far exceeding the difficult Supreme Level paths of his rivals.

The sight of Yang Xiaotian’s Kaitian Holy Path left the entire crowd trembling with disbelief.

Even Bai Yan found himself thoroughly stunned by the display.

“Old Fourth, if you attempted to cultivate ten thousand Kaitian Holy Paths, how many years would it take for you to reach completion?” Xiao Zheng turned to the Medicine Hall ancestor, Teng Si, and asked instinctively.

“One million years,” Teng Si replied after a moment of contemplation, though he added with uncertainty, “Perhaps even more.”

A million years!

Because of this, he simply could not fathom how Yang Xiaotian had managed to successfully cultivate ten thousand Kaitian Holy Paths.

At that precise moment, four mid-stage Holy Emperor Tenth Layer Fierce Beasts lunged at Yang Xiaotian. However, Yang Xiaotian’s ten thousand Kaitian Holy Paths swirled around him, and in an instant, all four mid-stage Holy Emperor Tenth Layer Fierce Beasts were pulverized!

They were shattered outright!

Killed in the blink of an eye!

Shock rippled through the onlookers.

Previously, everyone had been mentally calculating the true power of ten thousand Kaitian Holy Paths, wondering if they could repel the assault of four mid-stage Holy Emperor Tenth Layer Fierce Beasts. Now, the sheer might of ten thousand Kaitian Holy Paths was clear to all!

After obliterating the four mid-stage Holy Emperor Tenth Layer Fierce Beasts, Yang Xiaotian continued his flight forward.

Yet, he had barely advanced when the distant bellows of Fierce Beasts echoed through the air. Dozens of creatures were rapidly converging on his position; clearly, this pack had been drawn by the intensity of Yang Xiaotian’s previous combat.

Among these dozens of Fierce Beasts, there were actually two at the pinnacle Holy Emperor Tenth Layer!

Furthermore, half of the group had reached levels above the Holy Emperor Tenth Layer.

The remaining beasts, while not at the Holy Emperor Tenth Layer, were at least at the Holy Emperor Eight Layer or Nine Layer.

As they watched the fifty to sixty Fierce Beasts closing in at high speed, the crowd was filled with dread.

The collective strength of these fifty to sixty Fierce Beasts was easily ten times greater than the previous four.

The two pinnacle Holy Emperor Tenth Layer Fierce Beasts alone possessed enough power to slaughter many Human Race disciples at the late stage of the Holy Emperor Tenth Layer.

Everyone felt as though they were standing on the edge of a blade.

How would Yang Xiaotian choose to deal with these Fierce Beasts this time?

Though the strength of ten thousand Kaitian Holy Paths was formidable, could it truly hold its own against dozens of such creatures? No one could say for certain, especially since Yang Xiaotian was only at the Holy Emperor First Layer Realm.

While the spectators remained on edge, the dozens of Fierce Beasts lunged at Yang Xiaotian.

Roar!

The two pinnacle Holy Emperor Tenth Layer Fierce Beasts were the first to strike.

Immediately after, the other Fierce Beasts launched a simultaneous assault from the same direction. The combined force of dozens of Fierce Beasts stirred up a massive tidal wave of energy, seemingly capable of uprooting the very ground beneath Yang Xiaotian’s feet.

Even the experts watching from outside, those at the Holy Emperor Realm, could sense the terrifying magnitude of that power.

Yang Xiaotian remained calm as he watched the approaching monsters. This time, instead of holding his ground, he flew directly toward the dozens of Fierce Beasts.

The crowd gasped in surprise at seeing Yang Xiaotian charge toward the pack. As he moved, his entire body erupted in a brilliant glow once again, and Kaitian Holy Paths began to manifest continuously.

This time, another ten thousand Kaitian Holy Paths appeared.

Combined with the previous ten thousand, the count reached twenty thousand!

Twenty thousand Kaitian Holy Paths organized into a dragon-like formation, sweeping across the battlefield. The two pinnacle Holy Emperor Tenth Layer Fierce Beasts that were leading the charge were suddenly filled with terror and attempted to retreat, but they were instantly ground into a bloody mist by the power of the Holy Path.

Then, the twenty thousand Kaitian Holy Paths surged forward with relentless momentum, crushing every single attacking Fierce Beast into a crimson spray.

There was no suspense and no hesitation.

The entire event concluded in a mere heartbeat.

The sudden turn of events left everyone speechless.

“T-twenty thousand Kaitian Holy Paths!”

Ten thousand Kaitian Holy Paths were already enough to shock the world, but twenty thousand? What could one even say to that?

Even individuals like Cheng Zhan, Liao Yuan, and Li Quan, who had previously looked down on Yang Xiaotian, had now completely altered their perspectives.

The hall fell into a deathly silence.

Feng Zhong of the Phoenix Clan looked as though his fiery battle spirit had been utterly snuffed out, leaving him unable to recover his pride.

Bai Yan inhaled deeply, fighting to maintain his composure. This young man had actually cultivated twenty thousand Kaitian Holy Paths!

“Could it be possible that he possesses more than twenty thousand?” In the midst of the heavy silence, someone whispered.

The crowd was shaken to its core.

Even more than that?!

“Is it possible he has managed to cultivate thirty thousand Kaitian Holy Paths?!” someone muttered with hesitation.

“That’s impossible, surely?!”

Many ancestors began to debate heatedly over the matter of Yang Xiaotian’s Holy Path.

Bai Yan remained silent, his eyes fixed on Yang Xiaotian through the Stone Mirror, his gaze brimming with amazement.

He never would have guessed that this child would provide such immense surprise and wonder.

Thirty thousand?

Or perhaps even more?

Forty thousand, fifty thousand, or even sixty thousand?

Bai Yan himself began to speculate wildly.

From that point on, Yang Xiaotian continued his journey forward, and every Fierce Beast he crossed paths with was effortlessly destroyed by his twenty thousand Kaitian Holy Paths.

The tally of Fierce Beasts hunted by Yang Xiaotian continued to rise rapidly.

At this pace, it would likely take less than an hour for his kill count to exceed one hundred thousand!

The observers were filled with conflicting emotions.

In the past, even the Master of the Holy Realm, Long Yi, had to struggle immensely to reach the one hundred thousand mark at the third checkpoint, yet Yang Xiaotian showed no signs of struggle at all.

Just as Yang Xiaotian’s hunt was nearing the one hundred thousand mark, the ground of the Secret Realm suddenly began to vibrate violently. Dust and sand rose into the air, creating a massive, terrifying wave. Everyone looked toward the horizon and saw an endless tide of Fierce Beasts at the edge of the Secret Realm!

These beasts had eyes that were completely blood-red, and they were charging forward in a state of primal madness.

At this sight, the faces of the spectators turned pale: “A beastly wave!”

Even Bai Yan’s expression shifted.

A beastly wave did not consist of a mere few hundred beasts, but hundreds of thousands, perhaps even millions!

The implications of hundreds of thousands of Fierce Beasts charging in unison were staggering.

“Run!” Some of the disciples outside the hall couldn’t help but scream at the mirror, hoping Yang Xiaotian would hear them.

However, inside the Secret Realm, Yang Xiaotian was deaf to the frantic warnings of the crowd outside. He also witnessed the torrent of Fierce Beasts rushing from the boundary.

Yang Xiaotian came to a stop, watching the tide as it approached at a terrifying speed.

Seeing Yang Xiaotian actually halt in an attempt to face the beastly wave, Xiao Zheng, Teng Si, and the other ancestors grew frantic.

“What is that boy doing! He needs to start moving now!” Teng Si was so frustrated he felt like swearing.

But Yang Xiaotian remained motionless, staying exactly where he was. Eventually, as the beastly wave drew closer, it became too late for Yang Xiaotian to escape even if he had wanted to.

Observing the ferocious beastly wave as it closed in, Yang Xiaotian allowed his Holy Path power to erupt fully. His body radiated a blinding light, and Kaitian Holy Paths began to pour out with incredible speed.

In a flash, there were fifty thousand Kaitian Holy Paths!

“Fifty thousand!”

The crowd was horrified.

But Yang Xiaotian’s Holy Paths continued to surge outward.

“Sixty thousand!”

“Seventy thousand!”

“Eighty thousand!”

By the time the count hit eighty thousand, some people were trembling so violently they could barely keep their footing.

Even Xiao Zheng, Teng Si, and the other ancestors were shaking.

“Ninety thousand!”

When the number reached ninety thousand, the brilliance of the ninety thousand Kaitian Holy Paths lit up several layers of the void.

And still, more Holy Paths continued to emerge.

“One hundred thousand!” Feng Zhong shouted in pure shock.

The radiance of a hundred thousand Kaitian Holy Paths pierced into the Vault Of Heaven. Not even the massive dust storm generated by the tide of millions of Fierce Beasts could dim its overwhelming light.
