YM778.TV Chapter 379: 379: Ancient Thunder God Sword
But Li Hong, even if fuming or spitting blood with anger, could only swallow his blood back down and obediently continue attacking the Ancient Divine Palace with the other sect’s experts.
After attacking the Ancient Divine Palace, Yang Xiaotian immediately went without rest to attack both the Subduing Dragon Sword Sect and the Maha Divine Sect.
For a time, the attacks made the Divine Dragon Empire shatter and quake, instilling ceaseless panic in the hearts of all the super sects in the surrounding empires.
A hundred years later, the heavyweight figures of the Divine Dragon Empire would still tremble uncontrollably whenever they recalled the annihilation of the four super sects, saying that for the days when Divine Yang returned, the skies of the Divine Dragon Empire were dyed blood-red.
After eradicating the four sects of the Sky-Stepping Sect, Yang Xiaotian returned to the True Dragon Divine Sect with the Demon Ape and others.
Yang Xiaotian also, as promised, allowed the Green Lotus Tower Master and other people to leave.
The Green Lotus Tower Master and others escaped as if they had been granted a lease on life, fleeing as far as they could.
Originally, when attacking the Sky-Stepping Sect, there were over 400,000 strong warriors from all sides.
But after attacking the Maha Divine Sect, fewer than 100,000 of these experts remained.
Over one hundred experts from the Green Lotus Tavern went, and less than twenty returned.
When Li Hong returned to the Green Lotus Tavern with the remaining experts, his heart was bleeding.
These hundred-plus experts were all formidable figures who could sit tight in a region for the Green Lotus Tavern, almost completely wiped out!
“Grandfather, Yang Xiaotian has gone too far! We must have the Sword God Grandmaster seek justice for us!” Li Qianqian said with a mixture of hatred and anger.
The Sword God Grandmaster she referred to was none other than the Green Lotus Sword Deity.
Taking a deep breath, Li Hong said, “Don’t worry, I’ve already had someone report the events at the Green Lotus Tavern to our master, and the master along with the experts from the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect will surely preserve the justice for our Green Lotus Tower Master.”
Upon hearing this, Li Qianqian became excited, “When are the Grandmaster and the strong warriors from the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect likely to come to the Divine Dragon Empire?”
“It should be about two to three months,” Li Hong said.
Meanwhile, Yang Xiaotian returned to the True Dragon Divine Sect, where a celebration was in full swing.
“The Divine Son is invincible!”
“The Divine Son is invincible!”
Disciples from various peaks and halls of the True Dragon Divine Sect looked at the returning figure of Yang Xiaotian, shouting excitedly as if they were mad.
From this day forward, these disciples revered Yang Xiaotian as they would a god.
No, their reverence and worship of Yang Xiaotian now surpassed that of a god.
The Heaven-Penetrating Peak was especially lively, with joy and celebration everywhere.
Even Xiao Jin, licking a lollipop, was licking twice as fast as usual.
It also made a chirping noise.
Naturally, the True Dragon Divine Sect could not do without holding a feast to celebrate Yang Xiaotian’s return.
The feast lasted till late at night.
The next day.
Yang Xiaotian started cultivating Thunderclap Nine Heavens.
Now that he had condensed twelve Sword Hearts, he planned to visit the Ancient Thunder God Cave Mansion today to seek the Ancient Thunder God Sword.
Therefore, after having breakfast with his family in the morning, Yang Xiaotian took the Abyssal Spaceship to the Ancient Thunder God Cave Mansion in the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom.
This time, he didn’t bring anyone with him.
With the Abyssal Spaceship’s speed, as long as he found the Ancient Thunder God Sword, he could be back at the True Dragon Divine Sect on the same day.
Soon, Yang Xiaotian arrived at the Withered Stone Ridge in the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom.
Because of the Thunder God Cave, Withered Stone Ridge had changed a lot in just two years, with numerous sects having built palaces there, countless disciples from various sects entering the Ancient Thunder God Cave Mansion every day.
When Yang Xiaotian arrived at the Thunder God Cave, it was bustling with more people than when he first came.
Originally, only those below the Martial Ancestor level could enter the Thunder God Cave, but after Yang Xiaotian had comprehended Thunderclap Nine Heavens, he was able to enter the Thunder God Cave Mansion smoothly, enveloped in the power of the Thunderclap Nine Heavens.
Once inside, Yang Xiaotian headed straight for the palace that he hadn’t been able to open before.
When Yang Xiaotian reached the palace, he saw that it was surrounded by quite a crowd.
Yang Xiaotian walked straight to the palace gates and then activated Thunderclap Nine Heavens. With a flick of his finger as if it were a sword, he unleashed hundreds of Thunder Light Swords, bombarding the palace doors.
The doors, which had shown no response before, trembled violently as the light pulsed and thunder resonated, slowly beginning to open.
The surrounding people were stunned.
Since the emergence of the Ancient Thunder God Cave Mansion, years had passed, and countless disciples had tried all manner of methods to no avail—they could not budge these palace doors.
And now, this youth in blue arrives and opens them?
It was as if the palace belonged to him.
Seeing the doors open, Yang Xiaotian also breathed a sigh of relief.
Gazing at the palace doors now ajar, Yang Xiaotian felt a mix of nervousness and unease. Just as he was about to step inside, suddenly, a figure flashed before him, and a young man dressed in a Dragon Robe blocked Yang Xiaotian’s path.
“Hold on!” the young man spoke, “Young brother, this Ancient Thunder God Cave Mansion is a property of the Unparalleled Royal Family, and you cannot go in.”
Hearing the young man claim the Ancient Thunder God Cave Mansion as the property of the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom’s royal family and that he could not enter, Yang Xiaotian smiled, “Your royal family’s property? Zhu Xuan said the same thing, that the Ancient Thunder God Cave Mansion was his.”
“But in the end, I blasted him into a dog!”
As Yang Xiaotian spoke these words, he threw out a punch and sent the young member of the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom’s royal family flying.
The faces of the other disciples changed.
Yang Xiaotian glanced at the other disciples, then stepped into the palace.
The palace doors slowly closed behind him.
Once inside the palace, he found it wasn’t very large—only about two to three hundred square meters. In the center of the palace, there was an iron box with a jade vase beside it, and nothing else.
Yang Xiaotian approached the iron box, which was sealed shut with a restrictive force. He tried to open it with the power of Thunderclap Nine Heavens.
Indeed, the sealed iron box opened.
When the box was opened, inside laid a sword with thunderous light flickering along its blade.
Seeing the iron sword, Yang Xiaotian smiled; the Ancient Thunder God Sword was indeed here!
He had finally found the Thunder God Sword!
The thirteenth Sword Heart was within reach!
In excitement, he immediately started practicing Thunderclap Nine Heavens in the palace, holding the Thunder God Sword in his hand.
Suddenly, thunder surged around him.
Under the pull of the Thunder God Sword’s power, the entire Thunder God Cave pulsated with waves of thunder, each stronger than the last. This extraordinary phenomenon took all the powerful beings by surprise.
“Why is the Thunder God Cave suddenly showing such a phenomenon?”
“Someone has received the Thunder God inheritance and triggered the power of the Thunder God Cave!”
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.
“Who received the Thunder God inheritance?”
The news that someone had received the Thunder God inheritance quickly spread, and the masters from all the major sects and families of the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom were astonished and rushed towards the Thunder God Cave Mansion.
Meanwhile, inside the palace, Yang Xiaotian practiced Thunderclap Nine Heavens over and over again.
He continuously contemplated the Thunder God Sword Path.
His body was wrapped in a cocoon of thunderous Sword Qi, which grew more and more concentrated, much like when he practiced the Azure God Sword Path. Yang Xiaotian’s figure disappeared from the great hall.
He seemed to merge with heaven and earth, becoming one with the thunderous Sword Qi.
Time passed, and amidst the thunderous Sword Qi, streaks of nine-colored sword light began to blossom.
Soon, the power of twelve Sword Hearts awakened.
Then came the thirteenth Sword Heart.
When the thirteenth Sword Heart lit up, a fearsome Sword Force swept across heaven and earth. Under the sweep of this Sword Force, all the masters from the various sects and major families who had come from the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom felt their souls tremble.
