Chapter 2105: Ascending to the Saint Ancestor Realm

A wave of jubilation and fervor didn't just sweep through the World Academy; it engulfed the entire World Continent. As the Son of the World, Yang Xiaotian’s ascension to the position of Ancestor Dragon Realm Master was a source of immense pride for every inhabitant of the continent.

Once the Dragon Battle reached its flawless conclusion, Yang Xiaotian retreated to a secret chamber within the Silver Heavenly Dragon Clan’s headquarters. His goal was to begin the process of refining and absorbing the Innate Demon God Power belonging to the Blood Cave Lord of the Demon God Cave.

Typically, even a powerhouse at the Unity Realm would find it impossible to assimilate the Innate Demon God Power of such a being. However, Yang Xiaotian’s status as a Realm Master granted him the unique authority to forcibly extract the Innate Demon God Power from his captive's form.

Under Yang Xiaotian’s relentless extraction, the Innate Demon God Power was peeled away from the Blood Cave Lord, surging steadily into Yang Xiaotian’s own body. The captive’s struggles were entirely futile; within the Ancestor Dragon Realm, Yang Xiaotian’s will was absolute. Aside from figures like the Master of the Holy Realm or the Present Buddha, none could defy him here.

While Yang Xiaotian remained occupied with the Blood Cave Lord’s power, several other Lords of the Demon God Cave gathered in a distant corner of the starry sky, far from the Ancestor Dragon Realm, to discuss the Blood Cave Lord’s botched assassination attempt.

“It was completely unforeseen that Yang Xiaotian would become the Ancestor Dragon Realm Master!” the Heavenly Cave Lord remarked, his voice heavy and resonant. As the leader of the first cave and the most powerful among the cave lords, he had initially felt some trepidation about the contract to kill Yang Xiaotian. However, the bounty offered had been too great to ignore. Now, despite their regrets, there was no turning back; the rules of the Demon God Cave dictated that once a mission was accepted, it had to be seen through to the end.

“Yang Xiaotian cannot remain within the Ancestor Dragon Realm indefinitely. He is bound to depart eventually, and that will be our opportunity to strike!” the Prison Cave Lord interjected firmly.

“Brother Prison is correct,” the Sword Cave Lord added. “Yang Xiaotian is still only at the Holy Emperor Realm. Once he steps outside his domain, his connection to the Ancestral Dragon World Origin Power will weaken significantly. Killing him then will be a simple matter.”

“That is our only recourse,” the Heavenly Cave Lord sighed. “Post scouts to monitor his movements and alert us the moment he leaves the Ancestor Dragon Realm.” He paused, looking troubled. “But as for our brother Blood falling into his hands... I fear the worst.” The conversation faded, leaving the void in silence once more.

During his cultivation, Yang Xiaotian issued a decree throughout the Ancestor Dragon Realm: he would trade Fourteen Tribulation Heavenly Grade Ancestor Pills for Kaitian Level Dao Foundation Stones. He offered a staggering one hundred pills for every complete stone provided. This was the most efficient way to gather the materials he needed; searching for them personally could have easily consumed two or three centuries.

The announcement sent shockwaves through the various realms. The value of Fourteen Tribulation Heavenly Grade Ancestor Pills was peerless, and the offer of a hundred pills for a single stone ignited a frenzy. Powerful factions everywhere began scouring their private treasuries, while those without stones went to extreme lengths to acquire them. A massive search for Kaitian Level Dao Foundation Stones gripped the Eternal Realm.

In just a decade, Yang Xiaotian successfully traded for dozens of stones, significantly accelerating his path toward comprehending the Dao. After ten years, the influx of traders stopped, as the supplies held by the various powers had finally been exhausted.

A century passed in a flash. By the time Yang Xiaotian had fully integrated the Blood Cave Lord’s Innate Demon God Power, his comprehension of the Kaitian Level Dao had surged past the ten million mark, eventually reaching the ultimate limit of twelve million nine hundred and sixty thousand.

While ten million strands of Dao could manifest a Kaitian Level Dao Tree, only reaching the limit of twelve million nine hundred and sixty thousand would result in the most powerful version possible. With his comprehension perfected, Yang Xiaotian began the process of condensation.

The Dao surrounding him began to intertwine and fuse, slowly manifesting into a massive, sturdy trunk. As more strands merged, the tree grew increasingly robust, its branches reaching upward toward the Vault of Heaven. When the fusion was complete, a colossal Dao Tree stood behind him, appearing to bridge the gap between the cosmos and the earth. Its immense size seemed nearly enough to shatter the boundaries of the secret realm.

Strands of Xuanhuang Qi, Primordial Qi, and Origin Qi cascaded from the branches. While all three are Kaitian Level Spiritual Energies, Origin Qi is the most ancient and primitive essence of the universe. Sitting beneath this tree, Yang Xiaotian absorbed the falling Origin Qi, which transformed into Holy Power and rapidly pushed his cultivation to the absolute peak of the Tenth Layer Holy Emperor Realm.

With a surge of Holy Power, he struck at the bottleneck of the Saint Ancestor Realm.

Boom!

The barrier shattered instantly. As he transitioned, the Saint Ancestor Tribulation Thunder gathered overhead. Following his usual method, Yang Xiaotian used his physical body to endure the first ten waves of lightning, using the destructive force to temper his constitution. Finally, he activated the power of his Fourteen Defying Heaven Holy Body to obliterate the final wave of thunder. After absorbing the remnant energy, he officially stepped into the Saint Ancestor Realm.

Rather than ending his seclusion, Yang Xiaotian continued his refinement by consuming his remaining fifteen Ancestor Dragon Fruits. However, now that he had reached the Saint Ancestor Realm, the efficacy of the fruits had diminished. By the time he finished the last one, he had only progressed to the Fourth Layer of the Saint Ancestor Realm.

During this period, Master Ding utilized the Origin Qi from Yang Xiaotian’s Dao Tree to restore his own strength, finally recovering his capacity to the Eighth Strike of Epoch. This level of power was on par with the First Demon, meaning Yang Xiaotian no longer had to fear that adversary, even if he traveled to the Primordial Demon World.

Having reached the Fourth Layer of the Saint Ancestor Realm, Yang Xiaotian finally emerged from his long meditation. Stepping out into the sunlight, he felt a sense of profound relaxation and a level of mental clarity he had never known—a direct result of his Divine Soul’s evolution during the breakthrough.

Now established as a powerhouse in his own right, Yang Xiaotian gave orders to gather the ingredients for Heavenly Dao Realm Elixirs. With his new cultivation level, he was capable of refining these pills himself. These elixirs would allow his allies—the Primordial Universe Taoist, the Destroying Heaven Demon, and the Blood Demon Old Monster—to rapidly increase their own strength.
