Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2139: 2139: Heavenly Dao Saint Realm

Legions of ancient powerhouses from the Bright Heavenly Realm surged toward Cold Smoke Ancient City, desperate to reveal the hidden facts.

Yet, the overwhelming might of Yang Xiaotian and his ally kept everyone at bay; no one managed to draw near the city without being driven back.

This clash unleashed chaos across the heavens and earth.

The whole Bright Heavenly Realm shook violently.

The fierce struggle continued without pause, from dawn till dusk.

Following a full day and night of combat, the enraged voice of the Holy Realm's Master boomed across the Bright Heavenly Realm's skies: “Yang Xiaotian, upon your return to the Holy Realm, I will definitely strike you down!”

Right after that outburst, the Master's formidable energy withdrew swiftly, fading away like an ebbing wave.

As the Master pulled back, the Bright Heavenly Realm, which had been engulfed in turmoil, gradually regained its peace.

It was at this point that the myriad inhabitants of the Bright Heavenly Realm snapped out of their stunned state.

Yang Xiaotian observed the Holy Realm Master's withdrawal with icy detachment, making no move to pursue.

Though his present power held the advantage, seizing the Master remained beyond his grasp.

Still, this confrontation allowed him to gauge the Master's strength more precisely.

He had to advance to the Heavenly Dao Saint Realm without delay.

Should he achieve a breakthrough into the Heavenly Dao Saint Realm, the Master would face severe consequences even if attempting to escape now.

Yang Xiaotian soared away into the heavens.

This showdown was certain to send ripples throughout the entire Eternal Realm.

“What? Yang Xiaotian has absorbed the Bright Heavenly Realm Origin Power! He has risen as the Three Realms Master! He even overpowered the Holy Realm's Master, compelling him to withdraw!” Cheng Zhan, the World Academy elder who had pushed to strip Yang Xiaotian of his Son of the World title, stood utterly dumbfounded.

Both Li Quan and Liao Yuan were gripped by terror and unease.

“How could Yang Xiaotian refine the Bright Heavenly Realm Origin Power? Isn't it impossible for anyone to harness the Origin of two realms in this world?! What's happening here?” Li Quan shuddered.

Before, the Holy Realm's Master had declared it impossible for Yang Xiaotian to refine the Primordial Demon World Origin, but now Yang Xiaotian had gone further and claimed the Bright Heavenly Realm Origin!

He had ascended to become the Three Realms Lord!

What an earth-shattering development.

“Yang Xiaotian, doesn't that make him the top figure in the Eternal Realm?” Liao Yuan's heart weighed down with dread.

Cheng Zhan drew in a long breath to steady the storm raging inside him and declared, “Not quite! He's unbeatable only within the Bright Heavenly Realm, the Primordial Demon World, and the Ancestor Dragon Realm; he can't claim the top spot across the Eternal Realm!”

Li Quan added, “Exactly, Yang Xiaotian doesn't qualify as the Eternal Realm's foremost. If he stepped into the Eternal Realm Battlefield, he wouldn't even rank on the Eternal Realm List!”

“That said, who could have foreseen Yang Xiaotian becoming the Three Realms Master!” Liao Yuan remarked solemnly.

“Even as the Three Realms Master, so what? He still won't dare set foot in the Holy Realm. If he does, he's finished!” Li Quan scoffed.

In that instant, Yang Xiaotian removed the seals within the bodies of the Bright Saint Clan and Sun God Tribe's powerhouses, then journeyed to the Bright Saint Clan's domain alongside Rain Demon and the Abyss of Darkness crew.

Inside the Bright Saint Clan's Secret Realm there, he entered closed-door cultivation, aiming to shatter into the Heavenly Dao Realm.

Having already reached the late stage peak of the Saint Ancestor Tenth Layer, Yang Xiaotian drew on the Bright Heavenly Realm Origin to relentlessly purify and strengthen his Holy Power.

Once his Holy Power hit the absolute peak of the Saint Ancestor Realm, he surged forward in a single leap to the Heavenly Dao Saint Realm, summoning the Heavenly Dao Saint Realm's Tribulation Thunder.

Naturally, as the Bright Heavenly Realm's Master, the Heavenly Dao Saint Realm's Tribulation Thunder posed no real challenge to Yang Xiaotian—it was merely a minor annoyance.

With ease, Yang Xiaotian endured the Heavenly Dao Saint Tribulation, drew in the thunder's essence, and firmly stepped into the Heavenly Dao Saint Realm.

“At last, I've broken through to the Heavenly Dao Realm!” Yang Xiaotian breathed out in satisfaction.

Now in the Heavenly Dao Realm, his control over the three realms' origins would grow far more potent.

Should the Holy Realm's Master dare invade the Bright Heavenly Realm once more, fleeing wouldn't come without heavy costs.

Nevertheless, at his current level, venturing into the Eternal Realm Battlefield left his abilities somewhat insufficient.

The contenders in the Eternal Realm Battlefield hail from the elite of vast superpowers, each a prodigy who defies higher realms. Even wielding the origins of three grand realms, the First of Eternity Heart, and the Primordial Cave Heaven, breaking into the Eternal Realm List would probably demand reaching the Heavenly Dao Tenth Layer.

“Reaching the Heavenly Dao Tenth Layer won't suffice,” Master Ding warned, “At the Heavenly Dao Tenth Layer, you must foster a hundred million Holy Spirits.”

“A hundred million Holy Spirits!” Yang Xiaotian gasped.

During his earlier duel with the Holy Realm's Master, calling forth millions of Holy Spirits had been a spectacle, yet Master Ding proposed aiming for a hundred million!

“Millions of Holy Spirits aren't the ceiling. A full hundred million Holy Spirits marks the true pinnacle!” Master Ding explained, “If you aspire to the Creator Realm someday, it's wise to nurture exactly that number.”

“The Holy Realm's Master failed to amass a hundred million Holy Spirits, but with your First of Eternity Heart and Fifteenth Defying Heaven’s Top Tier Holy Body, you can forge a hundred million.”

Yang Xiaotian gave a nod of understanding.

That said, birthing a single Holy Spirit proved no simple task.

Plenty of prodigies spend years, or far longer, to produce just one Holy Spirit.

Gathering a hundred million might demand billions, or even tens of billions, of years!

That's practically forever.

“Given your prodigious gifts, crafting one Holy Spirit takes you merely a day.” Master Ding noted.

While other talents require years for a Holy Spirit, Yang Xiaotian needed only a day—yet even then, it would span hundreds of thousands of years?

And the Eternal Realm Battlefield loomed just thousands of years away.

Thus, through standard practice, even Yang Xiaotian's swift progress wouldn't yield a hundred million Holy Spirits before the Battlefield commenced.

Fortunately, a method existed to accelerate Holy Spirit cultivation, provided he located the Creation Spirit Root.

“Creation Spirit Root.” Yang Xiaotian mused.

The Creation Spirit Root was truly scarce.

More elusive than a seven-hundred-million-year-old Divine Medicine, yet less rare than an eight-hundred-million-year-old one.

Certain realms lack even a single eight-hundred-million-year-old Divine Medicine, and the Bright Heavenly Realm possesses only the Bright Heavenly Ginseng and the Dark Heartless Fruit.

Regarding the Creation Spirit Root, a dedicated search in the Bright Heavenly Realm might uncover a few.

Admittedly, not in abundance.

Therefore, right after ending his seclusion, Yang Xiaotian's initial command was for the Bright Heavenly Realm, the Primordial Demon World, and the Ancestor Dragon Realm to aid in hunting down the Creation Spirit Root.

Naturally, this wasn't without incentive; for every Creation Spirit Root discovered, he pledged a Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pill in return!

Yes, a Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pill, distinct from a Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Dao Pill!

Remember, the Harmonization Pill stands as the supreme tier among elixirs.

Though the Creation Pill surpasses it, only the Creator Lord has ever produced Creation Pills to this day, making the Harmonization Pill the acknowledged zenith of pillcraft.

A Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pill is so extraordinarily scarce that even in the Holy Realm, one might not surface for a million years.

Now, Yang Xiaotian dangled such a treasure as a bounty—picture the astonishment and fervor this announcement would ignite.

“What, Yang Xiaotian is dangling a Fourteen Tribulations Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pill for anyone delivering a Creation Spirit Root!” Upon hearing this, the Holy Realm's Master was profoundly stunned—he himself relied on Eleventh Tribulation Heavenly Grade Harmonization Pills for his practice, and often settled for Tenth Tribulation ones when supplies ran short.

The allure of Yang Xiaotian's offer proved irresistible even to the Master.
