Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2186: The First Beneath the Creator

Dazzling radiance erupted from the Cosmic Rankings, leaving the Master of Holy Realm's face ashen white. Panic surged uncontrollably in his eyes, for he'd never experienced such utter turmoil.

"Ten, ten billion!"

That staggering ten billion glared like a beacon!

It stung his very eyes.

Yang Xiaotian had shattered the ten billion barrier!

Though he'd foreseen the possibility of Yang Xiaotian exceeding ten billion, the reality hit the Master of Holy Realm like a thunderbolt, shaking him to his core.

Tremors wracked his body without restraint.

Like a seizure overtaking him.

After quaking for moments, the Master of Holy Realm unleashed a savage roar, smashing wildly at his surroundings and obliterating everything in reach.

"Useless!"

"They’re all fucking useless!"

He bellowed.

Pouring out the fury boiling within.

For years, he'd dispatched his minions across the Four Realms to hunt down experts, yet despite rounding up plenty, they'd snagged only worthless small fries—none posed any real threat to Yang Xiaotian.

Once his rage subsided, the Master of Holy Realm steadied himself, tore through the heavens, and vanished; he needed a hiding spot to evade Yang Xiaotian's pursuit until the Eternal Realm Battlefield concluded, then he'd retreat to the Holy Realm.

Within the Holy Realm's bounds, Yang Xiaotian held no power over him!

"Yang Xiaotian, even with the cultivation technique forged by the Creator Lord in your grasp, you won't ascend to the Creator Realm ahead of me!" the Master of Holy Realm's voice thundered in echoes.

Resounding like a solemn oath, or a venomous hex.

Back in the Holy Realm, he'd hurl himself toward Creator Realm breakthrough, vowing to outpace Yang Xiaotian—and he was utterly convinced of his success!

Excitement lingered endlessly across the Eternal Realm Battlefield as Yang Xiaotian's score kept climbing.

By the Eternal Realm Battlefield's close, Yang Xiaotian's tally halted at more than ten billion one hundred million.

With the Eternal Realm Battlefield's end, a resplendent golden roster materialized in the battlefield's overhead void—the Cosmic Rankings themselves.

Yang Xiaotian claimed the top spot!

Over ten billion one hundred million!

In stark contrast, the Master of Holy Realm scraped by with just over three billion six hundred million!

Third place fell to Bai Yan.

Since the Present Buddha skipped the Eternal Realm Battlefield, fourth went to the First Demon, fifth to the Blood Ancestor.

The list's ten thousand names lit up the ages, their radiant glow spilling into every nook of the Eternal Realm Battlefield.

From every spot in the Eternal Realm Battlefield, the Cosmic Rankings' names stood out crystal clear.

Yang Xiaotian’s name blazed like an undying sun across the heavens and realms.

Cheers erupted everywhere.

All knew exactly who fueled their jubilation.

Yang Xiaotian let out a profound breath—finally, it was done!

One minute after the Cosmic Rankings emerged, a space ring shot from the list straight into Yang Xiaotian’s palm.

Yang Xiaotian eagerly unsealed the space ring, revealing the top prize: ten Fourteenth Tribulation Heavenly Grade Creation Pills and ten Nine Hundred Million Years Divine Medicines!

Beyond the first-place haul, surpassing ten billion points earned him a Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine! This one was a heavenly ginseng too, but a Golden Ginseng, unlike the Green Sky Ginseng King. Alongside it sat a book.

Yang Xiaotian flipped open the book, discovering it held the first half of the Genesis Technique.

Gazing at the space ring's treasures, Yang Xiaotian's thrill was impossible to mask.

Ten Nine Hundred Million Years Divine Medicines plus one Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine promised a massive leap in his power.

Above all, the Genesis Technique now stood complete!

In the years ahead, he could dive into Genesis Technique cultivation.

Next, the Cosmic Rankings spat out space rings one after another, each dropping into the grasp of a top ten thousand overlord on the list.

Every entrant on the Cosmic Rankings scored some reward, though lower ranks got slimmer pickings.

Rewards fully dispensed, all were ejected from the Eternal Realm Battlefield.

Upon expulsion from the Eternal Realm Battlefield, the Master of Holy Realm wasted no time, bolting back to the Holy Realm at breakneck speed and sighing in relief only after arrival.

The First Demon, Blood Ancestor, and their ilk needed no urging—they fled in terror the instant they emerged from the Eternal Realm Battlefield, racing to the Holy Realm.

For them, the Holy Realm alone offered sanctuary now, with the Master of Holy Realm still able to check Yang Xiaotian.

Countless Yang Xiaotian foes scrambled back to the Holy Realm in haste, including the Ancestor Clan, Hou Clan, and Holy Realm Academy's elder patriarchs.

Yet even safe in the Holy Realm, the Ancestor Clan and Hou Clan simmered with unease, a gnawing sense of peril lingering.

Holy Realm Academy's elder patriarchs noticed, upon return, the odd stares from academy disciples and visiting sect masters.

They grasped all too well what those gazes implied.

Exiting the Eternal Realm Battlefield, Yang Xiaotian headed straight to the Meng Family to visit Meng Bingxue.

Meng Bingxue had awaited him with bated breath, and at his arrival, she flew into his arms like a homing bird, embracing him fiercely. She'd heard the Eternal Realm Battlefield results, and learning Yang Xiaotian seized first while blasting past ten billion had filled her with unprecedented joy and thrill.

"It’s all over now." Yang Xiaotian cradled Meng Bingxue, fingers gently threading her hair, his voice tender.

Yes, everything had concluded.

He now reigned supreme in the Eternal Realm!

Second solely to the Creator Lord!

Barring the Creator Lord, none could rival him!

Meng Bingxue breathed in Yang Xiaotian’s familiar aroma, nodding with sweet compliance.

In the ensuing days, Yang Xiaotian remained at the Meng Family for cultivation, holding off on devouring Nine Hundred Million Years Divine Medicines. Instead, he pulled out the Genesis Technique first and delved into its secrets.

The Genesis Technique brimmed with unfathomable depth, weaving creation's supreme laws; a typical Unity Realm Stage powerhouse attempting it would drown in enigmas, grasping nothing.

Beyond incomprehension, they'd risk Qi deviation from flawed understanding, inviting devastating backlash that could shatter their Dao Foundation!

Yet Yang Xiaotian found it utterly captivating.

Page by page flipped under his gaze, drawing gasps of admiration at its genius strokes.

Unwittingly, he'd devoured both halves of the Genesis Technique.

Finishing, he shut his eyes to mull it through, then launched into a second perusal.

The second pass unlocked fresh revelations for Yang Xiaotian.

Post-second read, he pondered anew with eyes closed, then embarked on a third!

Thus, Yang Xiaotian pored over it ten times, halting only when insights dried up, then commenced Genesis Technique practice.

He discovered that Genesis Technique cultivation accelerated his Heavenly Power progress far beyond prior rates—even sans Kaitian Stone, the pace thrilled.

Paired with a Kaitian Stone, it'd soar even swifter!

Blending Genesis Technique with Nine Hundred Million Years Divine Medicines, his power surged ahead.

Refining all ten Nine Hundred Million Years Divine Medicines propelled him from Harmonization Third Layer Realm into Harmonization Fourth Layer Realm!

Without pause, he withdrew the Hundred-Million-Year Golden Ginseng.
