Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2129: The Master of Holy Realm Descends

A short while later, Cheng Zhan, Liao Yuan, and Li Quan crossed paths with Xiao Zheng, Xin Lei, Teng Si, and the other members of the World Academy. They immediately began to exaggerate the situation, adding fuel to the fire.

Their words painted Yang Xiaotian as an ungrateful traitor who had succumbed to the Demon Path.

"We merely spoke a few words to him, yet he commanded the Rain Demon and the Bloodthirsty Evil Demon to attack us. We only escaped death at the hands of those monsters because we fled quickly," Cheng Zhan claimed with a face full of indignation.

Xiao Zheng, Xin Lei, and Teng Si looked at one another, exchanging uncertain glances.

"Yang Xiaotian has transformed into a Giant Demon. He is no longer fit to hold the title of Son of the World. I move that we strip him of his status immediately!" Li Quan declared, his voice trembling with rage.

Xiao Zheng knit his brows and replied, "This is a grave matter that must be brought before His Majesty Ancestor Dragon Primordial Demon."

As the current Realm Lord of both the Ancestor Dragon Realm and the Primordial Demon World, Yang Xiaotian’s position as the Son of the World could not be revoked on a whim.

Furthermore, they were skeptical of the one-sided account provided by Cheng Zhan and Li Quan.

The true nature and character of Li Quan and his associates were well known to them.

"You want to consult Yang Xiaotian? What is that supposed to mean? Are you suggesting that we are lying?" Li Quan snapped angrily.

"Whether you are telling the truth or not, only the ghosts know for sure," Xin Lei said with a mocking sneer.

"Xin Lei, do you truly believe that demon will be grateful to you for defending him like this?" Cheng Zhan retorted fiercely.

In an instant, the members of the World Academy were locked in a heated dispute.

At the same time, having successfully acquired the Bright Heavenly Ginseng, Yang Xiaotian departed from the Bright Heavenly River alongside the Rain Demon and his companions. They sought out a secluded location where he finally brought out the prize.

The Bright Heavenly Ginseng was currently suppressed by the restrictions placed upon it by Master Ding, so Yang Xiaotian had no fear of it fleeing.

The moment it gained the ability to speak, the Bright Heavenly Ginseng roared, "Release me at once! If you do not, the Bright Heavenly Emperor will surely slaughter you upon his return!"

"I am a Divine General personally raised by the Bright Heavenly Emperor himself!"

Yang Xiaotian could not suppress a laugh at these words. Instead of responding, he summoned the Radiant Heavenly Emperor’s Dharma Aspect.

The figure of the Bright Heavenly Emperor manifested behind Yang Xiaotian, leaning against the Heavenly Sword. He was a towering presence, radiating a boundless, holy light.

Just as before, the eyes of the Bright Heavenly Emperor remained tightly shut.

The Bright Heavenly Ginseng froze in shock at the sight of the Dharma Aspect. "Your Majesty! You...!" it stammered, unable to believe that Yang Xiaotian had condensed the Bright Heavenly Emperor into his own Dharma Aspect.

Did this not imply that their Bright Heavenly Emperor truly had...?

The Rain Demon, Abyss of Darkness, and the others were equally stunned by the appearance of the Dharma Aspect.

The Bright Heavenly Emperor was the supreme ruler of the Bright Heavenly Realm, a peerless figure whose power rivaled that of the Present Buddha. Even figures of their stature held him in high regard.

The revelation that their lord had manifested the Bright Heavenly Emperor as his Dharma Aspect surpassed everyone's wildest guesses.

At the same time, their minds raced as they considered the deeper implications of this power.

"How can you possibly possess the Heavenly Emperor’s Dharma Aspect? Just who are you?" the Bright Heavenly Ginseng asked, its voice filled with sudden excitement.

"I am Yang Xiaotian," he answered calmly. "The Realm Lord of the Ancestor Dragon Realm and the Primordial Demon World."

Since Yang Xiaotian had utilized the Origin powers of both realms during his previous clash with the Holy Realm Academy, the Bright Heavenly Ginseng was not overly shocked by his titles.

However, it continued to stare at him with intense suspicion. "What I mean is, who were you in your previous life?"

In its mind, Yang Xiaotian’s past incarnation must have been someone legendary to be capable of manifesting such a Dharma Aspect.

Yang Xiaotian simply shook his head at the question. He was in the dark regarding his past life, even though many others had asked him the same thing.

"Where can I find the Bright Heavenly Origin?" Yang Xiaotian directed the question to the ginseng.

"I do not know its exact location, even though the Bright Heavenly Origin is where I was born," the Bright Heavenly Ginseng replied with a shake of its head. It continued, "If finding the Bright Heavenly Origin is your goal, your only path is to locate and refine the treasure of the Ancient Heavenly Court."

It then added, "I may not know where that treasure is hidden, but I am aware of the location of the most vital Cave Mansion where the Bright Heavenly Emperor used to perform his Cultivation!"

"What!" The group gasped in unison.

Yang Xiaotian was visibly thrilled by this news.

"I am willing to lead you to this Cave Mansion, but in exchange, you must swear not to refine me and to grant me my freedom," the Bright Heavenly Ginseng began to bargain.

Instead of agreeing immediately, Yang Xiaotian fixed the ginseng with a piercing gaze that made it feel incredibly nervous.

The Bright Heavenly Ginseng quickly explained, "Inside that Cave Mansion, there should be an Eight Hundred Million Years Divine Medicine!"

It was attempting to use the medicine and the other riches within the Cave Mansion to buy its own life.

"Another Divine Medicine of eight hundred million years?" Yang Xiaotian asked, stunned.

The Rain Demon and the Abyss of Darkness found it hard to believe the ginseng's claims.

Everyone was aware of how vanishingly rare such a Divine Medicine was. It was already a miracle that the Bright Heavenly Realm had produced one.

Furthermore, there had never been any rumors of a second such medicine existing in this realm.

"It is only natural that you are unaware," the Bright Heavenly Ginseng stated. "Eons ago, the Bright Heavenly Emperor obtained a Dark Heartless Fruit that was nearly eight hundred million years old. However, because he possessed the Bright Holy Body, refining a dark-attributed fruit was useless to him."

"Consequently, he decided to plant it within his private Cave Mansion."

"He used the purest Holy Water of Darkness to nourish it. After all this time, that Dark Heartless Fruit has undoubtedly reached the eight hundred million year mark," it concluded.

After a moment of silent deliberation, Yang Xiaotian spoke. "Very well. If that fruit has indeed matured to eight hundred million years, I shall set you free!"

Since this Cave Mansion was the Emperor's primary Cultivation site, it likely held vital clues regarding the Ancient Heavenly Court.

The Bright Heavenly Ginseng nodded in agreement and began guiding Yang Xiaotian and his group toward the hidden location.

"Be warned, however, that the Cave Mansion is protected by numerous Bright Arrays constructed by the Heavenly Emperor. If you lack the skill to breach them, that is not my problem," the ginseng cautioned. "Once you confirm the existence of the Divine Medicine inside, you must let me go!"

While they traveled, Yang Xiaotian questioned the ginseng extensively about the history of the Ancient Heavenly Court and the Emperor.

The Bright Heavenly Ginseng was forthcoming, sharing everything it remembered.

The Cave Mansion was located at a vast distance; even at their high speed, the journey would take four or five days.

While the group was en route, the Master of the Holy Realm arrived in the Bright Heavenly Realm.

He looked down with a dark expression at Chen Mo, Wu Chong, and the others who were kneeling in his presence.

"Your Majesty, we would have secured the Bright Heavenly Ginseng if not for Yang Xiaotian's interference," Wu Chong said in his defense. "He is incredibly insolent, showing no respect for you or our Holy Realm Academy. He dared to steal our prize right in front of us!"

To Wu Chong and his peers, the ginseng was already their property, making Yang Xiaotian’s actions nothing short of theft.

"Yang Xiaotian, you are seeking your own destruction!" the Master of the Holy Realm roared in fury.

Yang Xiaotian was clearly baiting him, and by doing so, even the Creator Lord would have no grounds to complain if he chose to strike back.
