Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2087: Your Strength Isn’t Bad

Previously on Invincible Divine Sword...
Yang Xiaotian has arrived at the Ancestor Dragon Realm, using the power of his Primordial Dragon Holy Body to navigate the realm’s ancient protective formations. While searching for the Ancestor Dragon Tree and the remains of Long Yi to further his cultivation, he learns that his master was last seen near the perilous Dragon Destruction Cave. This legendary forbidden zone has now become a focal point of tension, drawing the attention of both the powerful Xuanming Demon Sect and the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan. As these formidable forces converge on the cave’s entrance, Yang Xiaotian prepares to enter the darkness to uncover the truth behind his master’s disappearance.

The members of the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan took notice of Yang Xiaotian’s group. A look of astonishment crossed their faces, as they clearly had not anticipated encountering anyone else venturing into the Dragon Destruction Cave besides their own kin.

Because of the extreme perils lurking within the Dragon Destruction Cave, few people ever dare to set foot inside; it is common for several centuries to pass without a single soul wandering into its depths.

"Princess, it appears this group also intends to brave the Dragon Destruction Cave!" an Elder from the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan remarked to Princess Long Ji.

Long Ji shifted her focus toward Yang Xiaotian, the Abyss of Darkness, and their companions. She spoke up, "Hey, the Dragon Destruction Cave is treacherous. You all should reconsider entering. It’s best to leave quickly before you lose your lives."

Recognizing her genuine concern, Yang Xiaotian offered a faint smile. "If the Dragon Destruction Cave is so dangerous, then why are you all going inside?"

Caught off guard, Long Ji replied, "You cannot be compared to us." She eyed Yang Xiaotian from head to toe before continuing, "With your small frame, I fear you wouldn't make it ten steps into the Dragon Destruction Cave before the restrictions crush you into a pulp."

Yang Xiaotian glanced at Long Ji’s somewhat sturdy physique and simply smiled.

"I’m not joking with you." Seeing him laugh, Long Ji shook her head. She didn't waste any more words on Yang Xiaotian’s group and led the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan deeper into the Dragon Destruction Cave.

Life and death are governed by fate.

She had fulfilled her duty by giving them a warning; whether they chose to heed it or not was entirely up to them.

Before long, the hundreds of experts from the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan vanished into the swirling gray mist at the cave's entrance.

"That young lady possesses a rather kind heart," the Blood Demon Old Monster remarked with a chuckle.

Yang Xiaotian laughed in response. "Let's go, it’s our turn to enter."

The Dark Army remained behind, concealed within the void to stand guard, waiting for Yang Xiaotian and the others to return.

The moment they stepped into the Dragon Destruction Cave, waves of malevolent aura came crashing toward Yang Xiaotian and his party.

Within these foul energies, Yang Xiaotian could sense the distinct chill of death.

This deathly aura likely originated from creatures attuned to the power of death dwelling within the cavern.

Yang Xiaotian and his companions proceeded forward with caution.

While these evil and deathly auras were formidable, they were unable to affect Yang Xiaotian.

Currently, Yang Xiaotian’s physical vitality and defensive capabilities had reached a staggering level. No matter how intense the evil or deathly auras became, they could not penetrate his form.

As soon as these energies made contact with Yang Xiaotian’s body, they were instantly neutralized by the vibrant vitality and Power of Bright radiating from him.

As he flew forward, Yang Xiaotian utilized the strength of his Hongmeng Holy Body to search for the aura of his master, the Primordial Universe Taoist.

His objectives for entering the Dragon Destruction Cave were twofold: to find the Primordial Universe Taoist and to locate a Seven Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine!

The restrictions within the cave were essentially nonexistent to Yang Xiaotian.

His vision could easily penetrate the cave's formations, allowing him to simply navigate around them.

The Dragon Destruction Cave was far more vast than Yang Xiaotian had envisioned, resembling a colossal spatial tunnel where gray airflow constantly seeped out.

He noticed that inside the cave, his Divine Soul Power was severely limited, allowing him to perceive movements only within a ten-mile radius.

The Abyss of Darkness and the Dragon Corpse Beast found their Divine Soul Power similarly restricted.

"I have heard that this Dragon Destruction Cave was formed at the same time the Ancestor Dragon Realm was born," the Dragon Corpse Beast observed with a grim expression. "A terrifying Soul Storm exists in the deepest parts of the cave, preventing anyone from reaching the innermost section."

The Soul Storm is an intangible assault that specifically targets the divine soul.

Furthermore, the Soul Storm located in the cave's depths is Innate and exceptionally powerful. Even characters as great as the Long Clan Ancestor and Long Yi were unable to reach the deepest part of the Dragon Destruction Cave in the past. Many mighty members of the Long Clan had their divine souls shredded instantly upon approaching the storm's perimeter.

Suddenly, a thunderous roar erupted as a massive beast, radiating the aura of death, lunged at the group.

This beast possessed the strength of a Holy Emperor Seventh Layer.

The force of its roar created physical sound waves that rocked the environment. Many experts at the Holy Emperor Seventh Layer would have been overwhelmed by the sound waves alone.

However, these vibrations had no impact on Yang Xiaotian.

Just as the Golden Armored Qilin prepared to intercept the creature, Yang Xiaotian intervened. "No need!" With a single punch, he shattered the sound waves and struck the beast squarely in the chest.

The massive creature was sent spiraling backward, a massive hole torn through its chest, leaving it on the brink of death.

The onlookers were stunned, realizing in that moment that Yang Xiaotian had successfully reached the Holy Emperor Realm.

"Holy Master, you... you've actually broken through to the Holy Emperor Realm!" the Golden Armored Qilin cried out in shock, while the others stared at Yang Xiaotian in disbelief.

It was hard to fathom; when Yang Xiaotian joined the World Academy over three hundred years ago, he had only just reached the Holy Emperor Realm, and now he had already stepped into the Holy Emperor Realm!

In just over three centuries, he had climbed from the Holy Emperor First Layer to the Holy Emperor First Layer!

He had bypassed twenty minor realms!

Even the Abyss of Darkness felt a jolt of shock.

He gazed at Yang Xiaotian with a sense of awe.

If he continued to Cultivate at this speed, it wouldn't take ten thousand years—perhaps only a few thousand—before he caught up to them.

He had previously promised to protect Yang Xiaotian for ten thousand years, but it now seemed that Yang Xiaotian would barely require his aid by the end of that term!

"It was merely a stroke of luck," Yang Xiaotian said with a light laugh, seeing their stunned faces. "I owe it to the World Academy and World Commerce for providing so many Five Hundred-Million-Year and Six Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicines. Without them, I wouldn't have reached the Holy Emperor Realm so quickly."

Though Yang Xiaotian acted as if it were nothing, everyone understood that Cultivation was never as easy as he described.

For any other person, even with an infinite supply of such high-level Divine Medicines, reaching the Holy Emperor Realm at such a pace would be an impossible feat.

Not even the Master of Holy Realm, Long Yi, could have managed such a thing.

"At this rate, the Holy Master might even surpass us within ten thousand years," the Dragon Corpse Beast remarked, his voice filled with both respect and excitement.

Yang Xiaotian smiled and replied, "The Seven Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine is quite elusive, and my progress in the later stages will likely slow down. It’s possible that even in thirty thousand years, I still won't have overtaken you all."

Despite his humble words, the group found it difficult to regain their composure.

Yang Xiaotian continued to lead them deeper.

Throughout their journey, if they were attacked by entities above the Saint Ancestor Realm, Yang Xiaotian let his companions handle it. However, if the enemies were at the Holy Emperor Realm or lower, he dealt with them himself.

With his current combat strength, he didn't even need to tap into the power of his Grotto Heaven to face opponents at the Holy Emperor Tenth Layer Peak.

By relying solely on his Dao Heart, Sacred Body, and the power of the Holy Land, he could effortlessly strike down those at the peak of the Holy Emperor Tenth Layer.

The group had yet to witness Yang Xiaotian deploy his Grotto Heaven, and their curiosity regarding its true nature grew stronger.

As they traveled further, the interior of the Dragon Destruction Cave expanded significantly. Half a day later, they arrived at a large plain.

Coincidentally, upon reaching the plain, they crossed paths with the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan once more.

The members of the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan were shocked to see Yang Xiaotian’s group. They clearly hadn't expected them to possess the strength required to reach this far into the cave.

"You all truly have some capability," Princess Long Ji admitted after her initial surprise faded. "Did you also come to the Dragon Destruction Cave in search of the Seven Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine?"
