Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2085: 2085: Journey to the Ancestor Dragon Realm

Previously on Invincible Divine Sword...
Yang Xiaotian traveled to a remote location to secretly condense his Primordial Cave Heaven, reaching the legendary Level Fifteen despite the immense strain on his soul. With the protection of Master Ding and the power of the Primordial Life Holy Tree, he successfully weathered the transformation and harnessed the resulting Primordial Qi. This breakthrough allowed him to shatter the barrier to the Holy Emperor Realm and endure a massive tribulation. After consolidating his new power and refining several precious divine medicines, he turned his focus toward the rare materials needed for the Saint Ancestor Pill as he contemplated the arduous path toward the Creator Realm.

Chapter 2085: Journey to the Ancestor Dragon Realm

Yang Xiaotian sought out a quiet, hidden location after procuring the necessary medicinal ingredients for the Saint Ancestor Pill. There, he commenced the process of concocting the Fifteenth Tribulation Heavenly Grade Saint Ancestor Pill.

Refining an elixir of the Fifteenth Tribulation proved to be a significantly more grueling task, however.

At the start, it took Yang Xiaotian a full hour just to complete the first pill.

The resulting Fifteenth Tribulation Saint Ancestor Pill radiated like a flawless masterpiece of art, a sight to behold. Its pure fragrance alone was enough to make Yang Xiaotian’s mouth water in anticipation.

Even Master Ding could not hide his thrill at the sight of the medicine; this was the very first Fifteenth Tribulation Heavenly Grade Holy Pill the world had ever seen!

Following that success, Yang Xiaotian moved on to the second one.

With the experience gained from his first attempt, the second refinement was much more fluid and efficient, taking him less than an hour to finish.

Once he had two Fifteenth Tribulation Saint Ancestor Pills ready, Yang Xiaotian shared one with Master Ding so they could experience it together.

While the Fourteenth Tribulation Saint Emperor Pill was already considered the pinnacle of flavor, the Fifteenth Tribulation Saint Ancestor Pill was in a league of its own. The moment it touched his tongue, Yang Xiaotian felt as though he were drifting through the heavens, the taste being truly beyond any earthly description.

After he swallowed it, Yang Xiaotian remained in a daze, savoring the lingering essence.

Master Ding was equally captivated for a long time, claiming that after tasting such a pill, all other elixirs would now seem completely bland.

Yang Xiaotian then continued his work, refining the third, fourth, and fifth pills…

As his proficiency grew, his speed increased. By the time the first day concluded, he had produced over thirty pills.

Within a month’s time, Yang Xiaotian’s tally reached over a thousand.

Half a year later, his supply of herbs was finally exhausted, leaving him with a total of over seven thousand Fifteenth Tribulation Saint Ancestor Pills.

Determining that seven thousand pills would suffice for several years, Yang Xiaotian halted his refining efforts and returned to the World Academy to focus on comprehending the Bright Heavenly Book.

Now that he had reached the Holy Emperor Realm, he believed his current Cultivation would allow him to fully grasp all one hundred pages of the ancient text.

Complete mastery of the Bright Heavenly Book was the key to eventually refining and commanding the Bright Heavenly Origin.

If he could successfully refine the Primordial Demon World, the Bright Heavenly Realm, and the Ancestor Dragon Realm, uniting the power of three worlds, he might be able to challenge the Master of Holy Realm once he reached the Unity Realm Stage!

Should he then manage to refine and control the Dark Hell, merging the power of four worlds within himself, he might even be able to suppress the Master of Holy Realm entirely!

Just as he had predicted, his breakthrough to the Holy Emperor Realm allowed Yang Xiaotian to successfully comprehend the Bright Heavenly Book!

He achieved total mastery over every rune and handprint contained within its hundred pages.

With that task finished, Yang Xiaotian turned his attention toward the Dark Heavenly Book.

Once he had mastered the Dark Heavenly Book as well, a Message Talisman arrived from the Dragon Corpse Beast. It contained news regarding the Primordial Universe Taoist.

The Primordial Universe Taoist was currently in the Ancestor Dragon Realm!

Upon receiving this intelligence, Yang Xiaotian rushed to the Hongmeng Mansion.

“Holy Master.” Within the Abyss of Darkness, the Dragon Corpse Beast, the Destroying Heaven Demon, and their companions quickly bowed in greeting.

“My master is in the Ancestor Dragon Realm? Where exactly?” Yang Xiaotian demanded.

“Our reports indicate that the Primordial Universe Taoist was seen in the Tianya Empire of the Ancestor Dragon Realm a few years ago,” the Dragon Corpse Beast explained. “However, he disappeared shortly after appearing there.”

He then provided Yang Xiaotian with the coordinates for the Tianya Empire.

Yang Xiaotian fell into deep thought.

The Tianya Empire was located at the frozen northern edge of the Ancestor Dragon Realm, essentially at its border. What business did his master have in such a remote place?

“Is there any word on my Senior Uncle Origin Daoist or the Bi Xin Sword Venerate?” Yang Xiaotian asked.

“None.” The Dragon Corpse Beast shook his head solemnly. After a brief pause, he added, “Origin Daoist and Bi Xin Sword Venerate are likely facing unfavorable odds.”

They had spent years searching, and even the World Academy had conducted its own investigation, yet no clues had surfaced.

The fact that even the World Academy was empty-handed suggested that the two might have vanished forever. It was hard to imagine they could remain hidden for so long otherwise.

“We are going to the Ancestor Dragon Realm!” Yang Xiaotian announced to the group.

The Ancestor Dragon Tree and the Long Yi Dragon Body had always been in that realm. He had delayed his visit only because Master Ding’s power had not yet returned to the Seven Strike of Epoch level.

Now that Master Ding had regained that strength—surpassing even the Abyss of Darkness—he was capable of standing his ground against the Mad Demon.

Thus, Yang Xiaotian and his followers set out for the Ancestor Dragon Realm.

Before his departure, Yang Xiaotian visited the Cave Mansion of his master, Bai Yan. He informed him of the trip and left behind a significant supply of Fourteenth Tribulation Heavenly Grade Saint Emperor Pills.

Learning that Yang Xiaotian was searching for the Ancestor Dragon Tree, Bai Yan warned him to be careful and assigned a legion to protect him.

Though this legion numbered only one million, they were the elite and most classified force of the World Academy.

This was Bai Yan’s personal unit, known as the Black Flame Army.

Yang Xiaotian accepted the gesture and took the Black Flame Army with him.

Under the cover of night, Yang Xiaotian activated Long Ye, and the group departed World City for the Ancestor Dragon Realm.

In the past, Yang Xiaotian had used Top Grade Dao Holy Veins to power Long Ye, but he now utilized Primordial Holy Veins, which increased the vessel’s speed a hundred times over!

The Destroying Heaven Demon, Blood Demon Old Monster, and Red Dragon Mad Demon were all left in awe.

“Is this truly the top speed of Long Ye?” the Destroying Heaven Demon asked, stunned.

The Dragon Corpse Beast shook his head. “This is not yet its absolute limit!”

As the long-time rider of Long Ye, he knew its full potential, yet he was still shocked. He wondered how the Holy Master had managed to obtain Primordial Holy Veins—items of such legendary rarity.

The entire Abyss of Darkness was equally baffled; Primordial Holy Veins were so scarce that even the World Academy might not possess any.

Of course, the Dragon Corpse Beast and the others were unaware that Yang Xiaotian had already progressed beyond the Holy Emperor Realm.

They also had no idea he had reached the Fifteen Level Grotto Heaven.

Yang Xiaotian offered no explanations. He knew that once they reached the Ancestor Dragon Realm, his true Cultivation would become clear to them.

He had expected to be ambushed by the Mad Demon, the First Demon, or the Evil Leader upon leaving the academy, but as the days passed, there was no sign of the Mad Demon.

Had the Mad Demon given up the hunt?

Or were they intimidated by the Creator Lord who stood behind the World Academy?

During the trip, Yang Xiaotian meditated within his Primordial Cave Heaven, drawing upon the Primordial Holy Veins. The tempering of his Sacred Body and Divine Soul by these veins was ten times more effective than the Xuanhuang Holy Vein.

Despite this, Yang Xiaotian was restless, feeling that the advancement of his Realm and physical body was still far too sluggish.

Without the aid of a Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine, reaching the Saint Ancestor Realm at this pace would still take ten to twenty thousand years.

While reaching the Saint Ancestor Realm in that timeframe was considered incredibly fast by any standard, to Yang Xiaotian, it felt like an eternity.
