Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2087: Your Strength Isn’t Bad

The Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan members spotted Yang Xiaotian’s group, their expressions filled with astonishment. It was evident they hadn't anticipated anyone else venturing into the Dragon Destruction Cave besides their own party.

Because of the extreme perils lurking within the Dragon Destruction Cave, it was a place few dared to tread, often remaining undisturbed for centuries at a time.

“Princess, it appears this group also intends to explore the Dragon Destruction Cave!” an Elder from the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan remarked to Princess Long Ji.

Shifting her attention toward Yang Xiaotian, the Abyss of Darkness, and their companions, Long Ji called out, “Hey, the Dragon Destruction Cave is treacherous. You all should stay out. Depart quickly, unless you wish to throw your lives away.”

Recognizing the woman’s good intentions, Yang Xiaotian replied with a faint smile, “If the Dragon Destruction Cave is so dangerous, then why is your group entering?”

Caught off guard by his response, Long Ji countered, “You cannot be compared to us.” She sized Yang Xiaotian up with a skeptical gaze. “With your small frame, I doubt you could walk ten paces into the Dragon Destruction Cave before the restrictions grind you into a pulp.”

Yang Xiaotian glanced at Long Ji’s rather sturdy physique and let out a soft chuckle.

“I am not joking,” Long Ji said, shaking her head when she saw him laughing. She didn't waste any more breath on them, leading the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan deeper into the cave’s depths.

Life and death are dictated by the heavens.

She had given them fair warning; whether they chose to heed it was entirely up to them.

Before long, the hundreds of experts from the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan were swallowed by the swirling gray mist at the cave’s entrance.

“That young lady possesses a kind heart,” the Blood Demon Old Monster remarked with a chuckle.

Yang Xiaotian laughed as well. “Let’s move, it is time for us to enter.”

The Dark Army remained behind, concealing themselves within the void to stand guard until Yang Xiaotian’s return.

The moment they stepped into the Dragon Destruction Cave, waves of malevolent energy rushed toward them. Within these foul currents, Yang Xiaotian could sense a heavy aura of death.

This deathly chill likely originated from creatures of darkness dwelling within the tunnels.

The group proceeded with caution. Although these evil energies were formidable, they could not penetrate Yang Xiaotian's defenses.

At his current level, Yang Xiaotian’s physical constitution and vitality had reached a staggering height. No matter how dense the aura of death became, it could not corrode his form.

The instant these dark energies brushed against him, they were neutralized by the radiant vitality and Power of Bright pulsing from his body.

As he flew forward, Yang Xiaotian activated the Hongmeng Holy Body to track the presence of his master, the Primordial Universe Taoist.

His objectives for this journey into the Dragon Destruction Cave were twofold: to find the Primordial Universe Taoist and to secure the Seven Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine!

The ancient restrictions of the cave posed no threat to him. His vision pierced through the hidden traps easily, allowing him to navigate around them effortlessly.

The interior of the Dragon Destruction Cave was far more vast than expected, resembling a colossal spatial corridor leaking constant streams of gray air.

Inside, Yang Xiaotian realized his Divine Soul Power was severely restricted, limiting his perception to a mere ten-mile radius.

The Abyss of Darkness and the Dragon Corpse Beast suffered from the same suppression of their Divine Soul Power.

“Legend says this Dragon Destruction Cave was formed at the very birth of the Ancestor Dragon Realm,” the Dragon Corpse Beast noted solemnly. “A terrifying Soul Storm rages in the deepest reaches, preventing anyone from entering the final section.”

The Soul Storm was a form of invisible mental devastation that specifically targeted the spirit.

Furthermore, the Soul Storm here was Innate and incredibly powerful. Even the Long Clan Ancestor and Long Yi had been unable to reach the deepest parts in the past. Many mighty experts of the Long Clan had seen their divine souls shattered instantly upon approaching that zone.

Suddenly, a thunderous roar erupted as a massive beast, wreathed in the aura of death, lunged at the group.

This creature possessed the strength of a Holy Emperor Seventh Layer.

The shockwaves from its roar were so intense that they could incapacitate ordinary Holy Emperor Seventh Layer experts on their own.

Yet, the sound waves had no impact on Yang Xiaotian.

As the Golden Armored Qilin prepared to strike, Yang Xiaotian intervened. “No need!” With a single punch, he neutralized the sound waves and struck the beast squarely in the chest.

The creature was sent tumbling backward, a massive hole torn through its torso, its life force fading rapidly.

The group stood in shock as they realized Yang Xiaotian had successfully reached the Holy Emperor Realm.

“Holy Master, you... you have advanced to the Holy Emperor Realm!” the Golden Armored Qilin cried out in disbelief.

It felt like only yesterday—just over three hundred years ago—that Yang Xiaotian had entered the World Academy as a fresh Holy Emperor Realm cultivator. Now, he was already at the Holy Emperor Realm!

In just three centuries, he had climbed from the Holy Emperor First Layer to the Holy Emperor First Layer!

He had crossed twenty minor realms!

Even the Abyss of Darkness felt a jolt of shock, staring at Yang Xiaotian with profound awe.

If he maintained this momentum, would it even take ten thousand years for him to reach the peak? It might only take a few thousand.

The Abyss of Darkness had pledged ten thousand years of protection, but it seemed Yang Xiaotian wouldn't require a bodyguard for nearly that long!

“It was merely a stroke of luck,” Yang Xiaotian said with a light laugh, seeing their stunned faces. “I must thank the World Academy and World Commerce for providing so many Five Hundred-Million-Year and Six Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicines. Without them, such progress would have been impossible.”

Despite his humble words, everyone knew that Cultivation was never that simple. Even with an infinite supply of such precious medicines, no ordinary person could achieve such a breakthrough.

Not even the Master of Holy Realm, Long Yi, could match that speed.

“At this pace, the Holy Master might surpass us all within ten thousand years,” the Dragon Corpse Beast said, his voice a mix of pride and excitement.

Yang Xiaotian smiled. “The Seven Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine is elusive, and my progress will surely slow in the higher realms. It is possible I won't catch up to you even in thirty thousand years.”

Despite his modesty, the group remained deeply shaken.

As they continued their journey, Yang Xiaotian allowed the others to handle any Saint Ancestor Realm threats, while he personally dealt with any enemies at the Holy Emperor Realm or below.

With his current strength, he didn't even need to summon the power of his Grotto Heaven to kill a Holy Emperor Tenth Layer Peak opponent. His Dao Heart, Sacred Body, and the power of his Holy Land were more than enough to crush them.

The group had yet to witness Yang Xiaotian use his Grotto Heaven, making them increasingly curious about its true nature.

The cave continued to broaden until, half a day later, they emerged onto a wide plain.

To their surprise, they ran into the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan once again.

The clan members were shocked to see Yang Xiaotian’s group. Getting this far into the cave required immense power, and they hadn't expected the strangers to survive.

“You actually have some ability,” Princess Long Ji admitted after her initial surprise. “Did you come all this way into the Dragon Destruction Cave in search of the Seven Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine as well?”
