Invincible Divine Sword - Chapter 185:
Chapter 185: Chapter 185 I will leave your body intact
Zhu Xuan, after entering the Thunder God Cave with a group of followers, said to the ones behind him, “Form into groups of five and search separately, remember, even if you have to turn the whole cave mansion upside down, you must find the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water and Innate Sword Spirit for me!”
“Whoever dares to snatch my Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water and Innate Sword Spirit, kill them!”
“No matter who it is, they must die!”
Zhu Xuan waved his hand, “Go.”
This cave mansion was left behind by the Ancient Thunder God Li Wushuang.
He had verified Li Wushuang’s information, so he was certain that within the cave mansion, besides the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water, there was also an Innate Sword Spirit.
His followers responded respectfully and left with a bow.
Zhu Xuan stepped forward, walking deeper into the cave mansion.
In his mind, the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water and Innate Sword Spirit in this cave mansion were already his.
At this time, Yang Xiaotian arrived at the entrance of a palace.
The palace doors were tightly closed, but around them stood more than a dozen sect experts, obviously all trying to figure out how to open the palace doors.
Generally speaking, palaces with closed doors like this contain treasures inside.
The arrival of Yang Xiaotian caused surprise among the dozen or so people present.
Clearly, they had not expected a child to break into the Thunder God Cave.
Yang Xiaotian ignored the peculiar gazes of the crowd, his attention fixed on the palace doors.
Above the doors of this palace, a Sword Array was inscribed. If one could not solve the Sword Array, no amount of brute force would open the palace doors.
Yang Xiaotian activated the power of his four Nine-Colored Sword Hearts. In his eyes, the Sword Array on the palace doors began to evolve.
Seeing Yang Xiaotian staring intently at the palace doors without blinking since his arrival, an expert from the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom’s Wu Family laughed and said, “This kid couldn’t have figured out the mystery, could he?”
“What mystery could a little kid figure out?” An expert from the Mu Family of the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom mocked with a laugh, “I think he is just staring at the carving on the door. That carving is finely crafted and quite nice-looking.”
The crowd chuckled.
Since the Ancient Thunder God Cave Mansion had emerged within the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom, many experts that had entered were from the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom.
The Wu Family and Mu Family were major families of the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom, especially the Mu Family, which had a deep relationship with the royal family of the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom.
Yang Xiaotian looked coldly at the two men, then walked towards the palace doors.
Upon seeing this, the Mu Family expert reached out to stop him and sneered, “Brat, were you just glaring at me with those eyes?”
Yang Xiaotian grabbed the man’s arm, followed by a flick, and the Mu Family expert was flung out, flying over the distant walls and crashing outside the perimeter.
A loud bang resounded.
The crowd was momentarily stunned.
That Mu Family expert was not weak; he was at the third layer of the Martial King Realm.
Yet, he was flung away by Yang Xiaotian as if he were tossing away trash.
For a moment, everyone stood there petrified.
Yang Xiaotian continued forward without stopping and approached the palace doors. Then, he raised his hand, and a ball of Sword Qi appeared, imprinting itself into the center of the Sword Array on the doors.
Instantaneously, the Sword Array on the doors burst with light.
After a blinding flash of light, the doors opened.
The group of experts present was amazed.
It was no wonder they were amazed; they had just spent a great deal of effort and still failed to open the palace doors, yet now Yang Xiaotian had opened them so effortlessly.
Yang Xiaotian stepped into the palace.
Just as others were about to burst into the palace, the palace gates suddenly closed, blocking everyone outside, and no matter how fiercely they attacked, the gates couldn’t be opened.
“Don’t worry, everyone, he’s in there, he can’t escape! Let’s just wait for him outside!” said the Wu Family expert in a deep voice.
Therefore, the experts from the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom did not leave, and instead waited outside like hunters expecting their prey.
Upon entering, Yang Xiaotian reached the great hall, which was empty except for two huge stone pillars. Just as he started to feel disappointed, the carvings on the pillars caught his attention.
On the first pillar, there was a carving of a Thunder God holding a thunder sword.
The Thunder God held the thunder sword, pointing it straight towards the sky.
Yang Xiaotian approached the pillar and stared fixedly at the thunder sword in the Thunder God’s hand, and as he pondered, he felt the overwhelming Sword Intent from the Thunder God Sword.
It was a Sword Intent that seemed capable of destroying heavens and earth, as if it wanted to blast open the Heavenly Capital itself.
Yang Xiaotian’s four Sword Hearts burst forth with Nine-Colored Sword Aura.
The pillar shone with a dazzling light.
Suddenly, a book flew out from the space within the pillar and landed in Yang Xiaotian’s hands.
“Thunderclap Nine Heavens!” Yang Xiaotian read aloud.
It was a sword technique manual titled Thunderclap Nine Heavens.
Could it be created by the Ancient Thunder God?
He briefly flipped through it, finding the manual to be incomprehensibly profound. He didn’t examine it closely but securely stored it away before moving to the second pillar.
On this pillar, the image depicted was of a massive sword.
Looking at the massive sword, a thought struck Yang Xiaotian: Could it be that the pillar was sealing the Thunder God’s thunder sword?
He began to comprehend the massive sword drawn on the pillar.
Before long, the pillar radiated light, and the massive sword began to envelop itself in swirling Sword Qi. An object flew out from the space within the pillar, and when Yang Xiaotian clearly saw what it was, his eyes widened in shock.
He had thought that the pillar was sealing the Thunder God Sword, but what flew out was actually an Innate Sword Spirit surrounded by thunder!
“Innate Sword Spirit!” Yang Xiaotian exclaimed in surprise and joy.
Moreover, it was an Innate Sword Spirit with the attribute of thunder.
Judging from the powerful Aura of Sword Spirit emanating from it, there was no doubt it was stronger than the one from Black Snow Mountain.
The Innate Sword Spirit flew out from the space within the pillar, turned into a beam of Sword Light, and charged towards Yang Xiaotian, looking like it would hit him when the Medicine Cauldron emitted a beam of light that blocked the Innate Sword Spirit.
Yang Xiaotian snapped back to his senses and hurriedly used the Controlling Sword Technique taught to him by Master Ding to control the Innate Sword Spirit.
He then channeled Primordial Dragon Art to refine the Innate Sword Spirit.
As Yang Xiaotian refined it, the Aura of Sword Spirit from the Innate Sword Spirit continuously merged into his Swordsmanship Divine Ability.
Several days passed.
The Innate Sword Spirit had now shrunk to the size of a fine needle.
And Yang Xiaotian’s body was swirling with Sword Qi, his body shining like a sea of thunder.
Moments later, as Yang Xiaotian completely refined the Innate Sword Spirit, suddenly, Sword Qi burst from all over his body, and the Nine-Colored Sword Aura from his chest illuminated the entire great hall as if it were daylight.
After refining the thunder-attribute Innate Sword Spirit, Yang Xiaotian finally condensed his fifth Nine-Colored Sword Heart!
Outside the great hall, after waiting several days with no sign of Yang Xiaotian, the experts from Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom had grown impatient. Many people left one after another, leaving only the Wu Family expert who had spoken earlier still stationed in his spot.
Just as the Wu Family expert was losing patience and about to leave, suddenly, the palace gates slowly opened, and Yang Xiaotian walked out from inside.
Seeing the palace gates open and Yang Xiaotian emerging, the Wu Family expert stopped in his tracks, a smile spreading across his face, “Kid, you’ve finally come out. My waiting these past few days hasn’t been in vain!”
He walked towards Yang Xiaotian, his aura of a late Martial King Realm enveloping him, “Hand over what you got in the great hall! I’ll leave your corpse intact!”
