Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2140: Cultivating the Innate Holy Spirit

Upon hearing the news that Yang Xiaotian had set a Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pill as the prize for delivering a Creation Spirit Root, Li Quan, Cheng Zhan, Liao Yuan, and the others from the World Academy found themselves utterly shocked.

"Yang Xiaotian is really dangling a Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pill as the reward for a Creation Spirit Root! Could his alchemy skills be so heaven-defying that he can whip up endless supplies of Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills?" Cheng Zhan struggled to wrap his head around it.

Not even a mighty institution like the World Academy possesses a Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pill.

But here was Yang Xiaotian, tossing out Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills like common rewards!

There was no question now—Yang Xiaotian could produce Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills with ease!

"No one has ever managed to churn out Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills so casually, not even the Master of the Holy Realm can do that with such pills!" Li Quan echoed the disbelief: "The Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills the Master of the Holy Realm usually makes are only Eleven Tribulations, and Twelve Tribulations ones are a rare treat!"

"I refuse to believe Yang Xiaotian's alchemy prowess outstrips the Master of the Holy Realm!" Liao Yuan shook his head firmly.

If Yang Xiaotian's alchemy skills matched those of the Master of the Holy Realm, folks might swallow it, but claiming he far exceeded the Master of the Holy Realm? That was beyond belief for everyone.

Inside the World Academy, elders like Xin Lei, Xiao Zheng, and Teng Si buzzed with excitement over Yang Xiaotian's promise of a Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pill in exchange for a Creation Spirit Root.

This led the World Academy to call a grand assembly just to hash out and decide on the issue.

Ultimately, Bai Yan chose to personally escort every Creation Spirit Root from the World Academy to the Bright Heavenly Realm for Yang Xiaotian.

As discussions raged wildly across various factions about Yang Xiaotian's reward offer, he himself was busy turning the herbs gathered from the Bright Heavenly Realm into Fourteen Tribulations and Fifteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills.

The Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills were meant for the bounty payouts.

The Fifteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills, on the other hand, were reserved for his personal cultivation needs.

That said, crafting the Fifteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pill turned out way tougher than Yang Xiaotian expected; from every batch of ten Harmonization Pills, nine ended up as mere Fourteen Tribulations.

This held true even with the aid of the Nine Great Chaotic Holy Fire.

His hit rate for Fifteen Tribulations was just one out of ten.

Yang Xiaotian pushed on for days, yet the outcome stayed the same every time.

Failure after failure piled up.

"It's due to your Divine Soul's power falling short!" Master Ding explained: "Despite wielding the Nine Great Chaotic Holy Fire, your Divine Soul's might isn't sufficient to lock in a perfect success rate for the Fifteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pill!"

"Without the steady boosts from Primordial Qi and Primordial Holy Veins to your Divine Soul all these years, you'd struggle to even produce Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills."

Primordial Qi ranks as a supreme treasure; Yang Xiaotian had soaked his Divine Soul in it nonstop over the years. Still, nailing a flawless success rate on Fifteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills remained a tough hurdle.

"For a guaranteed full success on Fifteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills, your Divine Soul needs to pack at least ten times the current punch!" Master Ding declared.

Yang Xiaotian felt a jolt of surprise.

Ten times the strength required!

Fresh off his breakthrough to the Heavenly Dao First Layer Realm, his Divine Soul already outshone many in the Harmonization First Layer Realm.

Boosted tenfold, it would rival those at the Harmonization Tenth Layer Realm, wouldn't it?

"Exactly right—to nail a perfect success rate on Fifteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills, your Divine Soul must rival many at the Harmonization Tenth Layer Realm," Master Ding confirmed. "With your ongoing Divine Soul training pace, you'll be close by the time you hit the peak of the Heavenly Dao Tenth Layer."

So, Yang Xiaotian couldn't yet crank out Fifteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills on a whim.

Not unless he ramped up his Divine Soul's power first.

All the same, with Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills as the bounty bait, Yang Xiaotian had zero fears about shorting claimants on their elixirs down the line.

Right after Yang Xiaotian's bounty went public, powerhouses from the Bright Heavenly Realm started hauling in Creation Spirit Roots to trade for the Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pill.

True to his word, Yang Xiaotian took the Creation Spirit Roots and handed over the Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pill on the spot.

A certain sect ancestor, who delivered more than a dozen Creation Spirit Roots, clutched over a dozen Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills, tears streaming down in wild joy.

He showered endless gratitude on Yang Xiaotian, the Realm Lord, with passionate thanks.

Deep in the Bright Saint Clan's Secret Realm, Yang Xiaotian sat cross-legged within the ancient Heavenly Court palace, pulling out a Creation Spirit Root before running his Cultivation Technique to draw in the Creation Power inside.

As the Creation Power flowed into him, the initial Holy Spirit took shape in his Primordial Cave Heaven.

Holy Spirits come in varying powers, much like Holy Totems and Trees of the Dao.

They span from level one up to ten.

Beyond level ten lie King-level Holy Spirits, Supreme Holy Spirits, and Chaos Holy Spirits.

Super Continent prodigies often manage King-level Holy Spirits, while Supreme Holy Spirits pop up only once every million years or so.

Chaos Holy Spirits? To date, just the Master of the Holy Realm, Long Yi, and the Present Buddha have pulled that off.

But even Chaos Holy Spirits aren't the pinnacle— that spot goes to the Innate Holy Spirit.

Yang Xiaotian's Holy Spirit glowed with nine radiant colors; that marked it as the Innate Holy Spirit!

The caliber of Holy Spirit one forms hinges on the prior Dao Foundation; thanks to his First of Eternity Heart, the Fifteenth Defying Heaven’s Top Tier Holy Body, plus wonders like the Golden Lotus, Tree of the Dao, Holy Land, and Primordial Cave Heaven, Yang Xiaotian forged the Innate Holy Spirit.

The moment the Innate Holy Spirit appeared, Yang Xiaotian's whole Primordial Cave Heaven lit up, bursting with fresh vitality like a world reborn.

While other experts might need years to fully drain one Creation Spirit Root, Yang Xiaotian polished off one in just a single day. From that first root, his Primordial Cave Heaven birthed a hundred Innate Holy Spirits.

Even with only a hundred Innate Holy Spirits, the life force they infused into the Primordial Cave Heaven surged tremendously, no less potent than what ten thousand Chaos Holy Spirits could offer.

Yang Xiaotian kept at it, absorbing more Creation Spirit Roots to advance his cultivation.

A month later, after taking in all the traded Creation Spirit Roots, his Primordial Cave Heaven now boasted three thousand Innate Holy Spirits.

"Three thousand." Yang Xiaotian gave a bitter smile.

Gathering three thousand Innate Holy Spirits in a month was blazing speed, yet it paled against his target of one hundred million.

Plus, since entering the Heavenly Dao Realm, his strength gains had slowed to a crawl. At this rate, he'd never hit the Heavenly Dao Tenth Layer Realm, let alone the Harmonization Realm, before the Eternal Realm Battlefield kicked off.

But where to snag Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine?

At this point, nothing short of Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine would help him.

Yang Xiaotian's mind drifted to the Tree of Eternal Life and the Innate Demon Tree; if they fruited, harnessing the Eternal Fruit and Innate Demon Fruit in his practice might propel him to the Heavenly Dao Tenth Layer Realm or even the Harmonization Realm before the Eternal Realm Battlefield began!
