Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2090: 2090: Primordial Dragon Tablet
Previously on Invincible Divine Sword...
The Young Master of the Xuanming Demon Sect spat a mouthful of blood and wiped his lips, his eyes smoldering with suppressed fury.
However, an Elder of the Xuanming Demon Sect sent a secret transmission to the Young Master, warning him that Yang Xiaotian’s party possessed significant strength. If they were to ally with the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan, their own chances of victory would vanish.
Consequently, he urged the Young Master to retreat for the time being, preserving their strength for a future confrontation.
A look of hesitation crossed the Young Master’s face, but he eventually relented and followed the Elder's counsel.
Glaring coldly at Yang Xiaotian, he remarked, “We will meet again.” He then signaled his subordinates, commanding, “Let’s go!” before making a swift departure.
The disciples of the Xuanming Demon Sect followed closely behind him as they retreated.
As they disappeared from sight, Princess Long Ji turned to Yang Xiaotian with a grateful expression. “Thank you for saving us,” she said.
Yang Xiaotian dismissed her thanks with a light smile and a wave of his hand. “It was nothing,” he replied, before curiously asking, “Princess, what led to your conflict with the Xuanming Demon Sect?”
“It was because of this seven-hundred-million-year-old Ancestor Dragon Ginseng!” Princess Long Ji pouted, producing the Ancestor Dragon Ginseng from her storage.
Immediately, a powerful fragrance flooded the area.
The scent of the Ancestor Dragon Ginseng was so potent it filled the air, making everyone’s mouth water instinctively.
The experts of the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan exchanged wry smiles. Their princess was far too innocent, revealing such a priceless Ancestor Dragon Ginseng without any hesitation.
What if Yang Xiaotian and his companions harbored the same greedy intentions as the Xuanming Demon Sect?
After all, one must always maintain a level of suspicion toward others in this world.
Yang Xiaotian and his group were visibly stunned as they gazed at the Ancestor Dragon Ginseng in the Princess's hand.
Princess Long Ji explained, “We were the ones who first discovered this seven-hundred-million-year-old Ancestor Dragon Ginseng. The Xuanming Demon Sect arrived afterward and tried to seize it from us!”
“Naturally, we refused to hand it over, which led to the battle.”
At that moment, an Elder from the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan sent a silent message to Princess Long Ji, advising her to put the treasure away immediately.
To his surprise, Princess Long Ji shook her head and replied, “There is no need to hide it; these people just saved our lives.”
The Elder who had made the suggestion felt a wave of embarrassment wash over him.
Yang Xiaotian couldn't help but chuckle at the exchange.
“Princess, we have pressing matters to attend to, so we must take our leave now.” Thinking of the Long Clan Ancestor’s treasure, Yang Xiaotian offered a polite salute to Princess Long Ji.
Realizing Yang Xiaotian was departing, Princess Long Ji pulled out an Identity Token and handed it to him. “This is my Identity Token. I am truly grateful for your help. You and your master must visit the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan in the future. I want my father and the others to thank you properly.”
Yang Xiaotian accepted the Identity Token without refusal. With a smile, he said, “Very well, we shall visit your clan when time permits.” Having said that, Yang Xiaotian cupped his hands in farewell and led his group away.
Once Yang Xiaotian’s party had vanished beyond the horizon, Princess Long Ji led her own people from the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan in the opposite direction.
After putting some distance between them, Yang Xiaotian retrieved the Treasure Map and allowed the little light dragon to resume its role as their guide.
The little light dragon continued to lead the way forward.
Yang Xiaotian had initially assumed the destination was nearby, but to his surprise, the little light dragon was still flying ahead three days later.
A full week passed.
The little light dragon had gradually guided them into the deepest, most secluded parts of the Dragon Destruction Cave.
In this region, the creatures they encountered possessed terrifying power, and even the Abyss of Darkness found it difficult to cope.
Fortunately, they were accompanied by Master Ding.
“The annihilation zone of the Dragon Destruction Cave is just ahead. Is it possible the Long Clan Ancestor’s treasure is hidden within that zone?” the Destroying Heaven Demon asked with concern, watching the little light dragon continue its forward flight.
The innermost depths of the Dragon Destruction Cave were known as the annihilation zone. It was a place where few who entered ever returned.
Yang Xiaotian’s brow furrowed in thought.
If the treasure was truly located within the annihilation zone, things would become quite complicated.
Even though Master Ding had regained his Seven Strike of Epoch strength, ensuring everyone's safety within such a dangerous area would be a daunting task.
Suddenly, the little light dragon halted its flight, hovering above a mountain range just ahead of them.
Relieved to see the dragon stop at last, Yang Xiaotian rushed forward with the others to reach its position.
As they arrived, the little light dragon dissolved into Long Clan Runes and sank back into the Treasure Map.
Taking this as a sign, Yang Xiaotian and his companions began to scour the surrounding terrain.
It wasn't long before they uncovered a concealed Dragon Clan Great Formation buried beneath the earth.
There was no doubt that this massive array had been constructed by the Long Clan Ancestor himself.
Yang Xiaotian and the others immediately began to analyze the formation.
Even Master Ding scrutinized the array with great care.
Following months of intense study, they finally decoded the secrets of the Dragon Clan Great Formation left by the ancestor.
Yang Xiaotian channeled the power of his Primordial Dragon Holy Body to trigger the array. The formation erupted with a powerful suction, pulling Yang Xiaotian and his group into a hidden space.
As their surroundings shifted, Yang Xiaotian and the others found themselves standing before a magnificent Dragon Palace.
The palace was wreathed in thick Dragon Qi, radiating a vast and overwhelming Dragon Power. The entire structure had been crafted from the incredibly rare Dragon Mysterious Ore.
Even before they crossed the threshold, the group could smell the potent fragrance of Long Clan Divine Medicine, reminiscent of the Ancestor Dragon Ginseng they had seen with Princess Long Ji.
However, the scent here was far more concentrated and ancient.
The group felt a surge of energy, certain that the Dragon Palace contained seven-hundred-million-year-old Long Clan Divine Medicines—perhaps even treasures that surpassed the one held by the Princess.
Filled with anticipation, Yang Xiaotian and his party hurried toward the palace entrance.
Though the gates appeared to have no visible Restrictions, every time they attempted to push them open, they were shoved back by a mysterious force dwelling within the palace.
After a moment of reflection, Yang Xiaotian retrieved the Treasure Map and infused it with power. Beneath the map's radiant glow, the massive gates of the Dragon Palace finally creaked open.
With the path clear, the excited group stepped inside.
The first sight to greet them was an enormous Dragon Tablet.
This tablet hovered in the center of the main hall, casting a soft, ethereal light.
“This is the Primordial Dragon Tablet!” the Dragon Corpse Beast shouted in shock.
The Primordial Dragon Tablet had been forged by the Long Clan Ancestor using Innate Dragon Stone. Legend spoke of it being inscribed with the Primordial Dragon Art, a technique perfected by the ancestor. When used by someone with the Primordial Dragon Holy Body, it could unlock the body's full potential.
Yang Xiaotian summoned the strength of his Primordial Dragon Holy Body and, with a wave of his hand, pulled the tablet toward him. The surface of the stone was flawlessly smooth, and deep within, the faint silhouette of the Long Clan Ancestor seemed to shimmer.
After securing the Primordial Dragon Tablet, the group followed the trail of medicinal scents to the palace’s herb garden. There, they discovered a massive collection of rare Long Clan Divine Medicines—thousands of them!
The garden held plants aged five hundred million, six hundred million, and even seven hundred million years!
Among them were two distinct plants that had reached the seven-hundred-million-year mark!
Overjoyed, Yang Xiaotian and his companions harvested every single divine medicine in the garden.
Following this, the group moved on to explore the rest of the Dragon Palace.
They discovered a wealth of Dragon Clan Elixirs and ancient texts.
Some of these volumes contained Dragon Clan Holy Techniques and Holy Path Secret Manuals, while others were the personal journals of the Long Clan Ancestor. However, the Primordial Dragon Order and the Primordial Dragon Armor were still missing.
The Primordial Dragon Order served as the ultimate decree of the Long Clan Ancestor; holding it was the same as being the ancestor himself. One who could control its power could rule over all dragons within the Ancestor Dragon Realm.
As for the Primordial Dragon Armor, it was renowned as the most powerful defensive gear of the Long Clan.
