Invincible Divine Sword - Chapter 228
Chapter 228: Chapter 228: Green Sea God Sect
Upon entering the Four States Empire, Yang Xiaotian could distinctly feel the differences between the two empires.
First was the architectural style.
The cities of the Four States Empire, with their walls, were almost entirely draped in green vegetation.
Many cities had lakes, both large and small, within them.
Secondly, the cultivation techniques. The disciples of the sects in the Four States Empire mostly cultivated water-based cultivation techniques.
Along the way, the disciples he encountered in combat almost always used water-based martial arts and divine skills.
“The Four States Empire has four continents, which are actually four great seas,” said the Azure Thunder Python. “The four great seas nearly make up half the area of the Four States Empire.”
“Therefore, many sects of the Four States Empire are established on islands.”
Yang Xiaotian nodded.
Among the four seas, the Green Sea is the largest.
And since the Green Sea lies in the extreme north of the Four States Empire, that was why he had to set out more than a month early.
After entering the Four States Empire, the two of them did not stop and headed towards the Bitian Continent.
On the road, Yang Xiaotian was not idle; besides continuing to cultivate the Supreme Divine Power of the Long Clan, he was alchemizing.
Sitting on his mount beast, alchemizing while flying, probably only Yang Xiaotian alone could boast of such a feat in the world.
However, he wasn’t refining the Supreme Pure Jade Elixir Pill, but rather the unparalleled Nine Suns Longevity Pill, which made the process somewhat less difficult.
Now, he was already at the peak of the Martial King’s tenth level, with a breakthrough to Martial Ancestor imminent. To condense a Golden Core, he would need a huge amount of True Yuan support, so he had to prepare a large batch of unparalleled Nine Suns Longevity Pills in advance.
Even though he had already refined three to four dozen Nine Suns Longevity Pills, he was worried that it wouldn’t be enough and continued to produce more.
After all, the Golden Core he would condense was going to be the strongest, and the number of Nine Suns Longevity Pills he would need was bound to be an astonishing figure.
The journey was uneventful.
When Yang Xiaotian arrived at the Green Sea, it was already over a dozen days later.
Looking across the horizon, Yang Xiaotian could see only the blue sea under the clear sky, the ocean stretching as far as the eye could see.
Above the sea, sect disciples could be seen everywhere riding flying creatures.
On the sea surface, there were all kinds of ships: iron ships, wooden ships, and even huge warships. These behemoths, some dozens of stories high, were populated with disciples and guards from various sects.
These warships all belonged to the great superpower forces of the Four States Empire.
Not to attract attention, Yang Xiaotian put away the Azure Thunder Python and used the Skywalking Thousand Swords technique to fly.
“Deep in the Green Sea, there are layers of radiance, and the sound of dragon chants can be heard. It is said that a peerless treasure of the Long Clan is about to appear, we must hurry over!”
“Even if we rush over, it’s useless. The Green Sea God Sect has already sealed off the deep sea area; no one can get in.”
As Yang Xiaotian flew towards the deeper parts of the Green Sea, he heard many sect disciples discussing along the way.
These disciples were almost all talking about the imminent appearance of the peerless Long Clan treasure in the depths of the Green Sea.
However, upon learning that the Green Sea God Sect had already sealed off the deep sea area, Yang Xiaotian furrowed his brows.
The Green Sea God Sect was the strongest superpower force in the Four States Empire, even stronger than the True Dragon Divine Sect.
If they really had sealed off the deeper parts of the Green Sea, that was a serious problem.
Several days later.
Yang Xiaotian reached the deep sea region of the Green Sea.
As those sect disciples had said, the Green Sea God Sect had long since sealed off the area. High-ranking experts patrolled everywhere, densely covering the area with tens of thousands of people, making it likely that not even a fly could get through.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaotian could only force his way through.
After all, no one knew how long the Green Sea God Sect would keep the area sealed off.
If the blockade lasted for several months, the True Dragon assessment would be long over.
This time, in anticipation of the Long Clan treasure soon to emerge from the depths of the Green Sea, the Green Sea God Sect had sent out all their experts, including over a dozen from the Saint Realm and even elderly ancestors of the tenth level of the Saint Realm.
Normally, existences at the tenth level of the Saint Realm wouldn’t leave their Sect, but now, two Saint-level ancestors from the Green Sea God Sect has personally taken action!
With two Saint-level ancestors personally overseeing the situation, all the other Sect experts who were still harboring a glimmer of hope immediately stopped in shock.
With two Saint-level ancestors guarding there, who would dare to step forward?
Isn’t that just asking for an early death?
Li Wanshou and Zhang Bo were precisely the two Saint-level ancestors in charge of the situation.
The two of them were languidly staring at the sea ahead, having blockaded this maritime area for more than ten days. The radiance up ahead was becoming increasingly brilliant, yet the Long Clan treasure beneath the sea was as elusive as ever, stubbornly refusing to show itself.
“Damn it, why hasn’t it appeared yet!” Zhang Bo, who has a somewhat fiery temper, cursed in irritation.
Li Wanshou remained composed and said, “No rush, it should be soon.”
A vein popped on Zhang Bo’s forehead. Ten days ago, you also said it would be soon.
Just as he was about to speak, suddenly, screams echoed.
The two turned around in astonishment, only to see the sky darken as a gigantic super Azure Python flew towards them. With a sweep of its massive tail, the Green Sea God Sect disciples who were blocking the way were all sent flying.
“The Divine Beast King!”
“The Azure Thunder Python!”
Both of them were horrified.
Wasn’t the Divine Beast King, the Azure Thunder Python, supposed to be in the Red Moon Forest? How did it appear here?
Even more shocking to both was the sight of a person standing on top of the head of the Divine Beast King, the Azure Thunder Python—a figure donning a Dragon Head Mask, shrouded in darkness!
A storm of shock and awe surged within them both.
Who is this person?
He actually tamed the Divine Beast King, the Azure Thunder Python!
Seeing the Green Sea God Sect disciples about to rush forward again, the two shouted, “Stop!” Then, restraining the shock in their hearts, they flew forward.
“How should we address you, sir?” Li Wanshou took a deep breath and saluted Yang Xiaotian, “May I inquire what you and Elder Thunder Python have come here for?”
Zhang Bo’s mouth had gone dry as well.
“You may call me Lord Long,” Yang Xiaotian looked at them, his voice indifferent, “I have claimed the Long Clan treasure here. The people from your Green Sea God Sect may leave now.”
Li Wanshou, Zhang Bo, and all the elders and disciples of the Green Sea God Sect’s faces changed color.
Zhang Bo couldn’t help but express his anger, “You’re being too presumptuous. The Long Clan treasure here is the property of our Green Sea God Sect. You may be powerful, but we’re not to be taken lightly either.”
“I’m not very skilled, but I would like to witness your and Elder Thunder Python’s prowess!” Li Wanshou also said heatedly.
The Green Sea God Sect, after all, was one of the strongest Supreme Sects in the Four States Empire; they couldn’t possibly give away the treasure here just because of the other party’s words.
Upon hearing their words, the Azure Thunder Python let out a cold huff, a sound like thunder from the Nine Heavens, and following that, countless divine thunders from the Nine Heavens thundered down, covering the surrounding hundred miles of sea area.
Endless divine might radiated from the body of the Azure Thunder Python.
“It’s a Divine Spirit!”
“Retreat quickly!”
Li Wanshou and Zhang Bo screamed in terror, retreating frantically.
The other Green Sea God Sect elders and disciples were also panic-stricken, desperately trying to avoid the onslaught.
As Li Wanshou and the others were retreating in terror, the countless divine thunders bombarded the sea.
“Boom boom boom boom!” The noise was relentless.
The hundred miles of sea area exploded into turmoil, with waves thousands of feet high surging towards the sky, as if the whole ocean surface were about to be overturned.
The fearsome power sent countless disciples of the Green Sea God Sect flying.
