Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2147: Visiting the Great Saint Holy Master of Xuanhuang

Spotting the enormous Ice Lotus hurtling swiftly toward them, Yang Xiaotian felt a surge of astonishment; wasn't this the very Mother of All Lotus they had ventured here to obtain?

To their astonishment, right after stepping into the Ice River, they came across this Mother of All Lotus!

The Mother of All Lotus had clearly noticed Yang Xiaotian and his companions from a distance and was attempting to veer away to flee when Yang Xiaotian sprang into action, invoking his Supreme Holy Body and releasing the Power of Space-Time.

"Stop for me!"

Yang Xiaotian bellowed.

The Mother of All Lotus, which had been maneuvering to slip past them in escape, abruptly halted.

Yang Xiaotian’s Supreme Holy Body had advanced to the Thirty-Five Layer, granting him the ability not just for Space-Time Instantaneous Movement but also to lock down the Power of Space-Time within a specific zone.

Yet, this Mother of All Lotus possessed considerable strength, so Yang Xiaotian managed to hold it still for merely one or two breaths.

Even so, that brief moment sufficed for Yang Xiaotian.

With a swift motion of his hand, Yang Xiaotian seized the Mother of All Lotus right in front of him.

Beneath Yang Xiaotian’s mighty force, despite the Mother of All Lotus’s frantic struggles, it failed to escape.

Trailing behind were the nine Great Saints serving under the Xuanhuang Holy Master. Upon catching up and witnessing the Mother of All Lotus gripped in Yang Xiaotian’s grasp, their expressions turned grim.

Without inquiring about Yang Xiaotian’s identity, one of them instantly struck out with a claw toward Yang Xiaotian: "You’ve got guts, daring to snatch the Mother of All Lotus from this Great Saint! Hand it over!"

The fearsome claw force swiftly engulfed Yang Xiaotian.

Though the nine Great Saints weren’t top figures on the Eternal Realm List, they ranked as experts at the Harmonization Tenth Layer Realm, and their claw assault was utterly dreadful.

Yet, prior to the claw force striking, Rain Demon countered fiercely with a Yin Ghost Demon Claw.

Rain Demon thrust forth his claw, summoning a horde of wailing Yin Ghosts, with Demonic Qi erupting skyward and shrouding the heavens and earth in gloom.

The claw force from the nine Great Saints shattered in an instant, as Rain Demon’s attack pressed onward toward the nine Great Saints.

"Yin Ghost Demon Claw!" The nine Great Saints paled in terror at the advancing demon claw and fell back hastily, while conjuring layers of armors and shields.

But such defenses proved futile; the armors and shields crumbled outright under the Yin Ghost Demon Claw.

The followers of the nine Great Saints gaped in shock at the sight, and they too unleashed their own strikes.

A thunderous boom echoed.

The nine Great Saints along with their hundreds of followers were hurled back explosively, slamming into the far-off Ice River amid sprays of shattered ice.

The nearby waters of the river turned crimson with spilled blood.

The nine Great Saints emerged mostly unscathed, yet their lesser followers lay broken and teetering on the brink of death.

"Rain Demon!" The nine Great Saints gazed in dread at Rain Demon standing next to Yang Xiaotian.

The Yin Ghost Demon Claw stood as Rain Demon’s signature technique.

Their eyes shifted to Yang Xiaotian, piecing together the identity of this youth.

"Go back and tell your Xuanhuang Holy Master that I’m taking this Mother of All Lotus." Yang Xiaotian declared coolly, then soared off alongside Rain Demon and the Abyss of Darkness crew.

Recognizing Yang Xiaotian, Rain Demon, and their allies, the nine Great Saints and their followers lacked the nerve to intercept and merely observed as Yang Xiaotian vanished from view.

"Sir, what’s our next move? Shall we inform His Majesty?" one subordinate among the nine Great Saints inquired anxiously.

The nine Great Saints appeared deeply troubled.

They had safeguarded this Mother of All Lotus for countless years, and now, just as they tracked it down, Yang Xiaotian had claimed it.

"Let’s report to His Majesty first." The nine Great Saints exhaled heavily and stated.

They could already envision their Majesty’s furious rage upon receiving the report.

As the nine Great Saints activated the Message Talisman to relay news of the Mother of All Lotus to the Xuanhuang Holy Master, he sat in eager wait for their update.

Noticing the Message Talisman from the nine Great Saints, he presumed they had secured the Mother of All Lotus and eagerly unsealed it with delight.

But upon scanning the contents, a wave of killing intent surged through him, and he roared in fury: "Yang Xiaotian, you bully too much!"

He had first ruined his disciple’s Holy Vein, plundered thousands of Mother Crystals from him, and now taken the Mother of All Lotus he had anticipated for years.

The White-haired Sword Venerate and the rest jolted at the Xuanhuang Holy Master’s outburst.

The Xuanhuang Holy Master passed the Message Talisman around to the assembly.

Having perused it, the White-haired Sword Venerate and others seethed with equal anger.

"Your Majesty, this Yang Xiaotian is utterly despicable! He keeps clashing against you time and again! If you let him rampage unchecked, how will Your Majesty maintain any prestige?" The White-haired Sword Venerate fumed passionately.

"Does he believe this is the Bright Heavenly Realm? Does he imagine he can act with impunity! Your Majesty, we must mobilize a billion-strong army and rally half of Xuanhuang Great World’s Unity Realm Stage powerhouses; I refuse to think we can’t crush Yang Xiaotian and his mere band of hundreds!" another advisor burst out.

...

Upon departing the Ice River, Yang Xiaotian chose to enter secluded cultivation.

Given the immense expanse of the Xuanhuang Great World, locating the Bright Dragon Ancestor Dragon Body would prove challenging, so he intended to cultivate in isolation while Rain Demon and the others scouted for leads on the Bright Dragon Ancestor Dragon Body.

In his seclusion, Yang Xiaotian drew forth the Mother of All Lotus, refining it for his cultivation, as his two Divine Avatars drew in Creation Spirit Root to forge the Innate Holy Spirit.

At the same time, he channeled the Mother Qi from the Mother Crystals to nourish the Tree of Eternal Life and the Innate Demon Tree.

Fueled by the Mother Qi, the expansion of the Tree of Eternal Life and the Innate Demon Tree accelerated dramatically.

Nevertheless, the thousands of Mother Crystals in his possession were finite, and after a decade, they were fully depleted.

Lacking further Mother Crystals, the progress of the Tree of Eternal Life and the Innate Demon Tree decelerated anew.

More than ten years later, Yang Xiaotian had fully assimilated the Mother of All Lotus and advanced triumphantly to the Heavenly Dao Fourth Layer Realm.

Through his relentless day-and-night efforts, he had also amassed a million Innate Holy Spirits during this period.

On that particular day, as Yang Xiaotian continued absorbing Creation Spirit Root to cultivate the Innate Holy Spirit, Rain Demon arrived to announce intelligence on the Bright Dragon Ancestor Dragon Body.

Excitement surged through Yang Xiaotian at the news.

The Xuanhuang Great World spanned endlessly, and he hadn’t anticipated Rain Demon and the team uncovering traces of the Bright Dragon Ancestor Dragon Body so soon.

"At Dragon Spring Land?" Yang Xiaotian uttered in surprise after hearing Rain Demon’s briefing.

Dragon Spring Land lay perilously near the Xuanhuang Great Saint Palace.

The Xuanhuang Great Saint Palace served as the current residence and cultivation ground for the Xuanhuang Holy Master.

Barring the Xuanhuang Holy Master and his select inner circle, none could access the Xuanhuang Great Saint Palace, much less draw close.

"Let’s head to Dragon Spring Land!" Learning the Bright Dragon Ancestor Dragon Body was probably situated in Dragon Spring Land, Yang Xiaotian wasted no time and directed Rain Demon and the rest.

Rain Demon and the others acknowledged with deference.

At once, Yang Xiaotian piloted the Ancient Heavenly Court bearing the group toward Dragon Spring Land.

Two months onward, Yang Xiaotian and his entourage reached the vicinity of the Xuanhuang Great Saint Palace.

Yet, no sooner had they arrived than the Xuanhuang Army, stationed to protect the Xuanhuang Great Saint Palace’s domain, blocked their path.

Gazing at the Xuanhuang Army obstructing them, Yang Xiaotian announced: "Inform your Xuanhuang Holy Master that Yang Xiaotian has come to visit; I need to enter Dragon Spring Land for an urgent matter!"

The Xuanhuang Army’s commander and the assembled elites recoiled in shock upon realizing the intruder was Yang Xiaotian and hurriedly relayed his presence to the Xuanhuang Holy Master.
