Invincible Divine Sword

Chapter 516: Chapter 516 Leaving the Azure God Continent

Seeing Yan Ping’s head roll to the ground, the billions of disciples of the Nether Sect wailed as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had shattered, crying out, “Sect Leader!”

Yan Ping had led the Nether Sect for countless years, serving as the pillar of heaven in the hearts of numerous disciples.

But now, with Yan Ping dead, that pillar had completely crumbled.

“Kill!”

“Kill Yang Xiaotian, avenge our Sect Leader!”

An ancestor of the Nether Sect roared and madly charged at Yang Xiaotian.

However, before they could reach him, they were directly slapped away by the Azure Bear.

“Kill!” Yang Xiaotian threw Yan Ping’s corpse into the Netherworld Corpse River Cauldron and once again charged into the midst of the billions of Nether Sect disciples.

The battle raged on.

From nightfall till dawn.

From daylight back into night.

Experts from the great sects and major clans of the Buddha Pagoda Empire and the surrounding empires continued to rush to the battlefield.

Blood formed rivers.

Corpses piled up like mountains.

Even the ground was no longer visible, as it had been completely covered with blood and bodies as far as the eye could see.

The sun set in the twilight.

At last, the great battle came to an end.

When the battle ended, the mountains and rivers lay shattered. The once rolling hills and endless forests of the Nether Sect were now bare, with no more mountains, no more rivers to be seen, not even a single tree in sight.

The power that could destroy heaven and earth continued to wreak havoc upon the land.

Yang Xiaotian stood there, his once pristine blue brocade robe now stained red with blood.

Above his head hovered two million-year Soul Rings, with the six great lights of Primordial Heaven Destiny shining beautifully.

“Your Majesty.” At that moment, the ancestor of the Buddha Pagoda Empire approached Yang Xiaotian.

“What’s the situation?” Yang Xiaotian asked.

“We did not find it,” the Buddha Pagoda Empire ancestor shook his head. “We’ve searched every corner of the Nether Sect, but the head of the Nether God is nowhere to be found.”

Yang Xiaotian frowned.

Where had Yan Ping hidden the head of the Undefeated Nether God?

“What about those ancestors? What do they say?” Yang Xiaotian inquired.

The Buddha Pagoda Empire ancestor shook his head again, “Those captured ancestors of the Nether Sect all claim they don’t know.”

“Kill them all,” Yang Xiaotian’s voice was icy cold, “Additionally, lock down the Buddha Pagoda Empire. If any fleeing disciples of the Nether Sect are discovered, kill them without hesitation!”

He wanted to eradicate them root and branch, lest the remnants of the Nether Sect cause chaos in the Azure God Continent again a million years from now.

The Buddha Pagoda Empire ancestor respectfully acknowledged the order and issued the commands, having all captured Nether Sect disciples executed and ordering the lockdown of the Buddha Pagoda Empire.

The night was finally about to pass.

Dawn was approaching.

The news of Yang Xiaotian and the Azure Bear single-handedly storming the Nether Sect’s headquarters, annihilating it, and killing the Son of the Nether God, Yan Ping, quickly spread.

The news of Yang Xiaotian possessing two million-year Soul Rings, six Primordial Heaven Destiny, and the Fifteen Sword Hearts also spread rapidly.

The entire Azure God Continent was shaken, boiling with excitement, and full of admiration.

Upon hearing the news, the powerhouses in various cities couldn’t help but shout excitedly, “Divine Emperor Yang is invincible!”

Divine Emperor Yang is invincible!

The cries echoed through every corner of the continent.

Everyone cheered, overwhelmed with excitement and exhilaration.

“`

In recent years, the shadow of the Nether Sect had loomed over the Azure God Continent, but now, with the Nether Sect annihilated and Yan Ping dead, the shadow was swept away, and all across the Azure God Continent, there was celebration.

In many imperial capitals of the empires, statues of Divine Yang were even erected for the people to admire.

And Long Qingxuan nestled by Yang Xiaotian’s side, as, unnoticed by them, the sky had grown bright.

Gazing at the rising sun, Yang Xiaotian suddenly spoke, “Qingxuan, in a few days, I may have to leave the Azure God Continent.”

Long Qingxuan, who had been snuggling by his side, suddenly shuddered.

Over these years, she had always been worried about this, afraid that her Brother Xiaotian would drift further and further away from her. Despite her diligent cultivation and tireless efforts to catch up, she realized that Yang Xiaotian had already become a Heavenly God Dragon in the Nine Heavens, while she remained on the ground.

She suddenly wrapped her arms tightly around Yang Xiaotian, her eyes brimming with tears as she said, “Brother Xiaotian, I will wait for you.”

“If you don’t come back in two years, I’ll wait two years.”

“If you don’t come back in three years, I’ll wait three years.”

“And if you don’t return in ten years, I’ll come looking for you myself, to the ends of the earth, until I find you!”

Then she murmured, “I always remember that night in the Red Moon Forest when I first saw you, the scent on you and the smell of the roasted meat.”

Yang Xiaotian also tightened his grip on Long Qingxuan’s hand, which was soft as if boneless, but now felt somewhat cold: “Qingxuan, I’m leaving just to become stronger, to protect the Azure God Continent, including you!”

Long Qingxuan’s heart trembled, her eyes filled with tears, and she nodded heavily.

Moments later, Yang Xiaotian leapt up and disappeared into the sunlight as Long Qingxuan watched.

In the distance, the Hundred Flowers Sword Saint stood there, heaving a deep sigh as she watched this scene, as if she was reminded of him from years past. Yet once he left, he never returned, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of years had passed.

As of now, whether he is dead or alive?

Yang Xiaotian had left.

Originally, the Azure Bear intended to leave with him, but Yang Xiaotian had the Azure Bear continue to wipe out the remnants of the Nether Sect and ordered him to focus on locating and rooting out the hideouts of the Corpse Demon Sect, the Blood Demon Sect, and the Evil Buddha Sect.

He handed the bodies of Yan Ping and the four Corpse Demons to the Azure Bear to bring back to the Azure God Mansion.

As for himself, he chose a deserted place to begin refining the eleven Star God Fruits and several Heavenly Fate Divine Stones.

By now, he was already at the sixth level of the Emperor Realm, and by refining the eleven Star God Fruits and several Heavenly Fate Divine Stones, his realm and strength would surge once more.

Yang Xiaotian sat cross-legged on the ground, swallowed a Star God Fruit, and activated the Ancient Beginning Dragon Technique.

Instantly, the Star God Fruit transformed into a raging torrent. Under the workings of the Ancient Beginning Dragon Technique, it gradually converted into True Essence for Yang Xiaotian’s Divine Sea.

Time passed.

Months blinked by.

Yang Xiaotian had completely refined the eleven Star God Fruits.

Yang Xiaotian’s strength soared, breaking through from the sixth level of the Emperor Realm to the early stages of the ninth level in rapid succession.

However, he did not rush to trigger the Destiny Tribulation, but continued to refine the Heavenly Fate Divine Stones to further solidify his Divine Sea World.

After refining all of the Heavenly Fate Divine Stones, the Divine Sea World of Yang Xiaotian became shockingly fortified.

Only then did Yang Xiaotian consecutively trigger the seventh, eighth, and even ninth rounds of the Primordial Destiny Tribulation.

After enduring the relentless onslaught of three rounds of tenfold Primordial Destiny Thunder, Yang Xiaotian was battered beyond measure. Luckily, his Eternal Divine Body was robust enough, and the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water he had consumed over the years had not been in vain.

Otherwise, he might have indeed perished.

Now, nine Primordial Heaven Destinies hovered above Yang Xiaotian’s head. The vast Primordial Power enveloped a hundred thousand li, crushing and annihilating everything. Not just a Saint Realm at the seventh or eighth level, but even at the ninth level would be directly obliterated.

“Nine.” Yang Xiaotian looked up at the hovering nine Primordial Heaven Destinies, just one short of ten.

How strong would ten Primordial Heaven Destinies be?

Presumably, not even the full extent of the Saint Realm could withstand a single strike from ten Primordial Heaven Destinies.

If he could cultivate fifteen Primordial Heaven Destinies and his Heavenly Fate Divine Body reached fruition, what level of terror would that be!

Yang Xiaotian couldn’t help but look forward to it.

Swallowing a sip of the sixfold Tribulation Thunder Water and after his injuries had healed, Yang Xiaotian flew towards the ruins of the Netherworld Demon Sect.

Next, he planned to use the Death God Tree to cultivate his Netherworld Divine Art and elevate it to the tenth level.
