Invincible Divine Sword - Chapter 317
Chapter 317: Chapter 317 The First Peak of Thousand Demon Mountain
My grandfather’s grandfather?
Isn’t that an ancestral spirit?
The teachers and students of the Buddha Source Academy wore strange expressions on their faces.
That Buddha Source Academy teacher, enraged and humiliated, was filled with the intent to kill, “So young, yet so viciously brutal, you must not be spared!”
With that, he suddenly launched a powerful punch towards Yang Xiaotian.
Instantly, Holy Power howled like a turbulent sea.
The Buddha Source Academy, being one of the two great academies of the Buddha Source Empire, required that their teachers be at least of the Saint Realm.
With this punch, Saint Buddha Power furiously swept up Heaven and Earth, lighting up the surroundings.
However, the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor was faster. As soon as the other party made a move, the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor slapped him across the face.
Smack!
The slap landed on the man’s face.
The force sent him spinning on the spot, his mind thundering, teeth shattering.
As the Buddha Source Academy teacher was spinning, the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor delivered another palm strike, sending the teacher flying and smashing him hard against a distant mountain peak.
The mountain peak crumbled.
Everything happened too quickly; the faces of all the teachers and students of the Buddha Source Academy went pale.
They looked at the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor with unconcealed terror.
Yang Xiaotian glanced at the student who had just been blasted away by his Dragon Blood Fist; the student retreated in fear.
“Anybody else want to try?” asked Yang Xiaotian.
None of the teachers and students of the Buddha Source Academy dared to respond.
Yang Xiaotian scanned the teachers and students of the Buddha Source Academy present: “Buddha Source Academy?” He then shook his head with a laugh and took off into the sky with the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor.
Listening to Yang Xiaotian’s contemptuous laughter, the faces of the teachers and students of the Buddha Source Academy turned ugly.
“Teacher Lin, that youngster is too arrogant, daring to grievously injure our Buddha Source Academy teacher and core student,” one of the students couldn’t help but say angrily.
One of the teachers took a deep breath, suppressing the rage in his heart, and said, “Wait a while; the Buddha Youth God will be here soon. Once the Buddha Youth God arrives, we will catch up to them, and they will pay the price!”
Buddha Youth God!
The mightiest expert under the Buddha Family’s Divine Spirits.
Also the most powerful under the Divine Spirits of Buddha Source.
Before Tianxin of the Buddha Family, Tang Huan, the Buddha Youth God had the highest potential among students of the Buddha Source Academy, already at the Demigod Cultivation level, and everybody agreed that once the Buddha Youth God broke through to the realm of Divine Spirit, he would be unimaginably strong.
This time, the Buddha Youth God of the Buddha Source Academy was also coming, but these Buddha Source Academy teachers and students had gone ahead, with the Buddha Youth God following after them.
Hearing the name of Buddha Youth God, all the teachers and students of the Buddha Source Academy were invigorated, their faces filled with zealous worship.
In the Buddha Source Academy, the Buddha Youth God was the Sky-Supporting Pillar.
The prestige of the Buddha Youth God ran even deeper than that of Tang Huan.
After Yang Xiaotian and the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor left, they flew straight towards Thousand Demon Mountain.
The closer they got to Thousand Demon Mountain, the more chaotic it became.
Along the way, Yang Xiaotian and his companion were constantly attacked.
For those who attacked them, the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor executed them with a single sword strike.
After dealing with dozens of troublesome encounters, they finally saw Thousand Demon Mountain.
Thousand Demon Mountain stood in the depths of the land of Redemption Land, continuous and unending, enveloped in Demonic Qi, its gray haze instilling panic in anyone who saw it.
Occasionally, a few black birds would fly high above.
This was a kind of predatory bird of death, specialized in feeding on the flesh and blood of the dead.
Several black birds flew off into the distance, entering an ancient and dilapidated city.
That was Redemption City, the only city in Redemption Land.
It was also the place where the various factions of Redemption Land conducted their trades, protected by the demons of Redemption Land.
Therefore, Redemption City was considered a relatively safe place in Redemption Land.
However, it was only relatively safe.
Yang Xiaotian and the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor entered Redemption City; Yang Xiaotian had never seen such a ruined city before, where almost none of the buildings within the city walls were intact.
Futhermore, the ground was not paved with whole slabs of granite, but was rather a path of tiny iron fragments, uneven and pockmarked.
The entire city seemed rather quiet.
There were few pedestrians, making it quite desolate, almost like a ghost city.
Along the street, there lay several bizarrely shaped Mount Beasts.
Yang Xiaotian, clad in a light blue brocade robe, was spotless, clear as the blue sky, and out of place amidst the surrounding ruin.
As Yang Xiaotian walked down the streets, the passersby almost all stared at him with a strange, greedy gaze.
Although the crowd harbored ill intentions towards Yang Xiaotian, no one dared to make the first move.
After all, Redemption City was protected by the demons, and people were still apprehensive.
Moreover, anyone could see that it wasn’t easy for Yang Xiaotian and the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor to have made it this far.
Not long after Yang Xiaotian and his companion entered Redemption City, they were stopped by a large group of people as they passed a small tavern.
All were dressed in blood-red battle robes, upon which there was a prominent blood character.
The character was blood-drenched, as if it had been cast in blood.
Before entering Redemption Land, the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor had informed Yang Xiaotian about the situation with the various powers in the land; these people in blood-red robes were disciples of the Dragon Blood Sect, one of the five major demonic sects.
The leader, an old man, fixed his eyes on Yang Xiaotian, shining with a cold light, and chuckled, “Kid, where you from? What brings you to Redemption Land?”
“From the Celestial Burial Academy,” Yang Xiaotian replied calmly, “I need to enter the main peak of Thousand Demon Mountain.”
Upon hearing that Yang Xiaotian was from the Celestial Burial Academy, the old man chuckled, revealing teeth as black as lacquer, “Celestial Burial Academy, eh? Great place! That means you must be quite wealthy!”
The Celestial Burial Academy was known as the most expensive academy in the Buddha Source Empire; when mentioning its students, the first impression was wealth!
Yang Xiaotian shook his head, “I would advise you not to make a move.”
The old man chortled loudly, his laughter wild, as his gaunt hand suddenly reached for Yang Xiaotian. His ten black fingernails turned into sharp blades. Clearly, he had always soaked his hands in poison; his nails were highly toxic and anyone who touched them would be sealed off from breath.
However, as soon as he made his move, a blindingly brilliant sword light flashed and was gone.
The old man froze, looking in disbelief at the sword thrust through his throat.
The Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor coldly withdrew the sword, and the old man fell to the ground, dead.
The faces of the Dragon Blood Sect disciples changed drastically, and then they scattered like birds and beasts, vanishing in the blink of an eye.
The disciples of the other four major demonic sects also abandoned any crooked ideas they had.
Yang Xiaotian and the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor continued on their way, and shortly after crossing Redemption City, Thousand Demon Mountain was in sight.
Thousand Demon Mountain was a gathering place for demons, and the headquarters of all five major demonic sects of Redemption Land were located there; however, after the recent incident with the old man from the Dragon Blood Sect, no one else tried to stop or attack Yang Xiaotian and his companion.
After passing through numerous peaks, Yang Xiaotian and his companion finally arrived at the main peak of Thousand Demon Mountain.
Though Thousand Demon Mountain was a gathering place for demons, the main peak was deserted.
For the main peak of Thousand Demon Mountain was riddled with terrifying prohibitions, that even Divine Spirits dared not enter. In fact, there had been Divine Spirits who ventured into the main peak of Thousand Demon Mountain and were never seen again; whether they were alive or dead, nobody knew.
Yang Xiaotian asked the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor to wait outside and then, under the protection of the Medicine Cauldron, he set foot on the main peak of Thousand Demon Mountain.
At that moment, the Buddha Youth God also led the people from Buddha Source Academy into Redemption City.
