Invincible Divine Sword - Chapter 253

Chapter 253: Chapter 253 Innate Secret Realm
 

In the end, Yang Xiaotian could only ask the Medicine Cauldron.

Upon hearing this, the Medicine Cauldron said, “You want me to take down a million-year-old Soul Beast? It’s not impossible, but I need a hundred vials of Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water.”

Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water!

A hundred vials!

Listening to the Medicine Cauldron’s outrageous demand, Yang Xiaotian felt an urge to strangle it.

“Master Ding, where am I supposed to find so much Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water?” Yang Xiaotian asked unwillingly, “How about ten vials?”

However, the Medicine Cauldron shook its head and said, “My old self’s Divine Essence is severely damaged, and ten vials of Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water simply won’t suffice to kill anyone.” After a pause, it added, “With ten vials, I could only beat a million-year-old Soul Beast half to death.”

Half to death?

Yang Xiaotian was speechless.

What use would he have for a half-dead million-year-old Soul Beast?

Useless.

If he couldn’t kill a million-year-old Soul Beast, his Martial Soul wouldn’t be able to absorb the soul of the beast, and he wouldn’t be able to condense a million-year Soul Ring.

Knowing that he would definitely need a hundred vials of Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water, Yang Xiaotian could only ask Barefoot Elder Demon, Tian Zhengyi, and several others to make inquiries.

“However, to condense a million-year Soul Ring, one’s Martial Soul has to be that of a Supreme King.” At this moment, the Medicine Cauldron spoke up, “Although your Martial Soul is a fourteen-rank Supreme Martial Spirit, it has not yet evolved into the Supreme King.”

So, before that, it must evolve into the Supreme King.

Yang Xiaotian was stunned, never expecting that a Supreme King Martial Soul was needed.

“If you don’t have a Supreme King Martial Soul, your Martial Soul simply won’t be able to absorb the soul of a million-year-old Soul Beast,” the Medicine Cauldron explained. “Otherwise, it will burst from the overload.”

If the Martial Soul burst, the consequences could be anticipated.

Without his Martial Soul, Yang Xiaotian would be a crippled person.

Yang Xiaotian felt a chill run through his heart.

“Then, in Master Ding’s estimation, how long would my normal cultivation take for my Martial Soul to evolve into a Supreme King Martial Soul?” Yang Xiaotian asked.

“If you cultivate normally, it would take at least a hundred years to evolve into a Supreme King Martial Soul,” the Medicine Cauldron replied.

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaotian’s heart sank, “A hundred years!”

By the time he evolved into a Supreme King Martial Soul a hundred years later, the moment would long have passed.

Previously, he thought his Martial Soul would quickly evolve into a Supreme King Martial Soul.

Now he knew he was terribly wrong.

“Supreme King Martial Souls are extremely rare in the world; if it were so easy to evolve into a Supreme King Martial Soul, it wouldn’t be a Supreme King,” said the Medicine Cauldron. “However, if you continue to consume Tribulation Thunder Water daily for your cultivation, the time needed can be greatly reduced.”

Yang Xiaotian’s spirits lifted upon hearing these words, “Master Ding, do you mean that Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water can speed up the evolution of Martial Souls?”

“Indeed,” said the Medicine Cauldron. “If you have a constant supply of Triple Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water, you could evolve into the Supreme King in about ten years or so.”

“Ten years?” Yang Xiaotian frowned.

Ten years was still too long for him.

Given his current speed of cultivation, he could break through to the Martial Emperor Realm in just eight or nine months.

Once he broke through to the Martial Emperor, he could begin condensing Soul Rings.

He couldn’t possibly wait ten years to start condensing Soul Rings.

“If it were Sixfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water, the speed of your Martial Soul’s evolution could be further accelerated,” said the Medicine Cauldron. “With sixfold water, it should take about two to three years.”

“With Sevenfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water, perhaps you could evolve into the Supreme King within a year.”

Sevenfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water!

Subsequently, Yang Xiaotian asked the Medicine Cauldron about some matters regarding the evolution of Martial Souls that he needed to pay attention to.

The night was cold.

Yang Xiaotian stood in the courtyard, contemplating the matter of the Heart of Azure God.

Though he didn’t know the latter two conditions, what he needed to do now was to condense a million-year Soul Ring and cultivate the fourteen strongest Sword Hearts.

Calming his mind, he sat cross-legged on the Cold Jade Bed, beginning to refine the four Innate Sword Spirits from the Sword Sea.

While Yang Xiaotian was refining the Sword Spirits of the Sword Sea, news of his completion of the Sword Path journey had also reached the ears of the Sky-Stepping Sect.

“What, he completed the True Dragon Divine Sect’s Sword Path in just one day?” Wu Peng was utterly shocked upon hearing the news.

“Yes, to be precise, it was in less than a quarter of an hour,” said Lin Yu, the Sky-Stepping Sect Master, with difficulty swallowing: “He comprehended a Sword Stele in less than ten breaths.”

All the other elders in the great hall were horrified.

“Less than a quarter of an hour to reach the end of the Sword Path?”

“Less than ten breaths to comprehend a Sword Stele!”

To them, it was as if they were hearing something otherworldly.

After his shock, Wu Peng’s killing intent could no longer be restrained. His body rolled with blood-red flames, and even his eyes revealed red blood threads: “This Yang Xiaotian must be killed at all costs!”

For tens of thousands of years, no one had ever reached the end of the Sword Path of the True Dragon Divine Sect, but Yang Xiaotian did so in less than a quarter of an hour.

It was simply astonishing.

This clearly showed the horrific extent of Yang Xiaotian’s talent.

However, amidst their astonishment, the Divine Spirit Ancestor Tang Hong couldn’t help but express his doubts, “How can this Yang Xiaotian, with only level eleven Twin Martial Spirits, control Divine Flame? How can he condense a Divine Grade Golden Core? How can he reach the end of the Sword Path in less than a quarter of an hour?”

“I have also considered this question,” mused Lin Yu. “Many experts in the Empire are now speculating that Yang Xiaotian’s Twin Martial Spirits must have evolved to level twelve.”

“Moreover, I suspect that he must have other secrets. Otherwise, it is impossible for him to control Divine Flame!”

Everyone’s hearts were greatly shaken.

Wu Peng’s expression was as dark as water as he issued a deadly command to Lin Yu, “Use every method possible to kill him before his breakthrough to Martial Emperor Realm!”

“Yes, Ancestor.”

After Lin Yu and a group from the Saint Realm had left, Wu Peng looked at the other eight Divine Spirit Realm elders in the great hall and said solemnly, “Make sure you find the nine-layered Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water to repair the Sky-Stepping Divine Sword!”

As long as the Sky-Stepping Divine Sword was repaired, they were confident about killing the Divine Dragon Ancestor of the Divine Dragon Imperial Clan.

Then, they would replace the Divine Dragon Imperial Clan.

“I have already sent people to inquire in other Empires,” Tang Hong said. “Do not worry, we will find it.”

Half a month blinked past.

Yang Xiaotian finally completely refined the four sword spirits of the Sword Sea.

To Yang Xiaotian’s delight, he had finally condensed the eighth Nine-Colored Sword Heart.

Although it was only the eighth and far from the fourteen, it was, nevertheless, a step closer to the fourteen.

And his cultivation had also broken through to the late stage of seventh level Martial Ancestor.

Li Zhengqing’s seven bowls of Dragon Ganoderma Soup were indispensable for advancing to the late stage of Martial Ancestor so swiftly.

One day, Tian Zhengyi, the Master of Assassin Tower, came to see Yang Xiaotian, his face filled with excitement: “Young Master, good news! Our Assassin Tower has discovered an Innate Secret Realm!”

Yang Xiaotian was surprised, “An Innate Secret Realm?”

The True Dragon Secret Realm of the True Dragon Divine Sect was one such Innate Secret Realm.

Generally speaking, such Innate Secret Realms contained numerous treasures.

“This Innate Secret Realm is particularly rich in innate tribulation energy; in the depths of the Secret Realm, there could be Tribulation Thunder Water,” said Tian Zhengyi excitedly. “Moreover, we’ve discovered the cave dwelling of the Medicine God Su Dan within this Innate Secret Realm.”

Medicine God Su Dan, the only Pharmacist in the Divine Dragon Empire capable of refining Divine Level Elixirs.

And to refine Divine Level Elixirs, one of the medicinal ingredients required is the seven-layered Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water and above.

His cave dwelling might just contain seven-layered Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water and above.
