Chapter 242: Chapter 242 Qingxuan Gets Injured

He didn’t bother to count the Spirit Stones but flipped through those Secret Tomes instead.

Among the Secret Tomes, there were indeed a few Supreme Divine Powers.

One of these Supreme Divine Powers, the “Kiss of Death,” piqued Yang Xiaotian’s interest.

He had also learned about the King of Netherworld, the number one assassin of the Empire.

The Kiss of Death was precisely the Divine Power that made the King of Netherworld famous.

It was this Supreme Divine Power that earned him the title of King of Netherworld.

There was a rumor that if this Supreme Divine Power were cultivated to its limit, one could incarnate as the god of death, even communicate with the powers of Hell—its truth was unknown.

Yang Xiaotian carefully reviewed the Kiss of Death from beginning to end, and after ensuring he had completely memorized it, he began to wander around the True Dragon Secret Realm with the Azure Thunder Python and Iceflame Qilin.

Since he still had a year to spend in the True Dragon Secret Realm, he was not in a hurry to cultivate. What mattered most for now was to search for the Myriad Dragons Divine Flame.

The True Dragon Secret Realm was even larger than Yang Xiaotian had imagined; it took a full day of flying with the Azure Thunder Python, and they still hadn’t made a full circle.

It wasn’t until two days later that Yang Xiaotian returned to the starting point.

However, after two days, Yang Xiaotian had almost scoured every corner of the True Dragon Secret Realm but had not found any trace of the Myriad Dragons Divine Flame.

Unwilling to give up, Yang Xiaotian searched again with the two beasts.

This time, he even utilized the Thunder Tribulation Divine Fire to see if he could lure out the Myriad Dragons Divine Flame.

Yet, even after carefully searching again with the Thunder Tribulation Divine Fire, there was still no sign of the Myriad Dragons Divine Flame.

Yang Xiaotian felt disappointed in his heart.

Could the Myriad Dragons Divine Flame not be within the True Dragon Secret Realm?

“It seems that the Myriad Dragons Divine Flame is not inside the True Dragon Secret Realm,” the Iceflame Qilin said, shaking its head.

It and the Azure Thunder Python had been continuously expanding their divine consciousness to search and sense; if the Myriad Dragons Divine Flame were within the True Dragon Secret Realm, it would be impossible not to discover it.

After fruitlessly searching twice, Yang Xiaotian stopped looking and calmed his mind to begin cultivating.

He came to the place where the True Dragon Qi was the densest within the True Dragon Secret Realm, sat down cross-legged, and started to operate the Primordial Dragon Art.

Suddenly, the Black Tortoise and the Black Dragon Martial Spirit appeared.

The power of the two Supreme Martial Kings permeated the entire True Dragon Secret Realm.

True Dragon Qi surged from all directions into Yang Xiaotian, a tumultuous tide, pouring into his body like the sea.

A celestial dragon might emanated from Yang Xiaotian.

Although the Iceflame Qilin and the Azure Thunder Python had seen Yang Xiaotian’s two Supreme Martial Spirits before, they were still unable to hide their shock every time they witnessed them.

“My lord will surely become the Divine Master of the Martial Soul World!” the Iceflame Qilin exclaimed as it looked at Yang Xiaotian, who was cultivating.

In the past nearly hundred thousand years, the Martial Soul World had only one Divine Master—the Sect Hierarch Hong Feng of the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect.

After Hong Feng, there had been no other Divine Master.

“I truly wish to see the day when my lord becomes the Divine Master,” the Azure Thunder Python also said with emotion.

“We should also cultivate. If we don’t work harder, our lord might catch up with us very soon,” the Iceflame Qilin said with a wry smile.

The two beasts had witnessed Yang Xiaotian’s growth with their own eyes.

The speed of it was enough to make them tremble in awe.

After that, the two beasts began to cultivate on a nearby mountain peak as well.

Time passed by.

Yang Xiaotian immersed himself in cultivation within the True Dragon Secret Realm, voraciously absorbing the True Dragon Qi of the realm.

After absorbing the True Dragon Qi, the two Supreme Martial Spirits shone even more brilliantly.

Especially the Black Dragon Martial Spirit—its horns grew longer and thicker, its scales became harder and more lustrous, and its dragon body grew visibly with each round, at a visible rate.

Flowers bloomed and wilted.

It was then the cold winter.

Within the True Dragon Secret Realm, there was a cold spring where Yang Xiaotian would occasionally take a leisurely swim during breaks from his cultivation.

With the True Dragon Qi from the True Dragon Secret Realm, along with the continuous consumption of the Thunder Tribulation Divine Fire and the Supreme Pure Jade Elixir Pill from the Thunder God Cave, Yang Xiaotian’s cultivation level increased at a pace even faster than when he was in the Martial King Realm.

Having just made a breakthrough to the Martial Ancestor level, Yang Xiaotian’s strength grew with each day.

From the Martial Ancestor’s first level, he broke through to the second, third, fourth levels!

He almost made a breakthrough every two months, reaching a minor realm.

Before he knew it, nearly a year had gone by.

There were just a few days left before Yang Xiaotian would leave the True Dragon Secret Realm.

When he entered the True Dragon Secret Realm, he was not yet eleven years old; now, he was almost twelve.

Approaching twelve, Yang Xiaotian’s height was nearly 1.6 meters.

He was tall and straight, with a handsome appearance and an air of masculinity, especially his eyes, which were deep and charming, like the stars.

As for his strength, he had already broken through to the pinnacle of the Martial Ancestor sixth level.

Seeing that there were only a few days left before leaving the True Dragon Secret Realm and still yearning for the Myriad Dragons Divine Flame, Yang Xiaotian started his third search.

However, to Yang Xiaotian’s disappointment, the third search ended without any trace of the Myriad Dragons Divine Flame.

As the entrance of the True Dragon Secret Realm opened, Yang Xiaotian could only exit the realm.

The members of the Yang Family waiting outside were overjoyed to greet Yang Xiaotian upon his emergence.

“Brother!” Yang Ling’er was the first to rush up, vigorously waving her little pink hand.

Just like a year ago, her braid was still swinging as she ran.

However, compared to a year ago, her braid had grown much longer and Yang Ling’er had also grown taller.

“Little girl.” Yang Xiaotian smiled, patting his sister’s head.

Yang Chao and Huang Ying stepped forward, with Huang Ying saying with a smile, “This little girl calculates every day how many more days until you come out of the True Dragon Secret Realm.”

Yang Ling’er smiled and said, “Of course, I’m still waiting for my brother to buy me candy.”

“Be careful not to turn into a plump young lady if you keep eating like this,” Yang Xiaotian joked.

Everyone laughed heartily.

With that, everyone walked back to Heaven-Penetrating Peak amidst laughter and joyful voices.

On the way, Yang Ling’er and Yang Xiaotian talked about Qingxuan.

“Brother, you don’t know, a few days ago, sister-in-law was bullied,” Yang Ling’er said indignantly, clenching her fists.

Yang Xiaotian was surprised; Qingxuan was a princess of the Divine Dragon Empire, who would dare to bully her?

“It was Guo Hong, the Crown Prince of the Four States Empire!” Yang Ling’er said angrily, “You don’t know how arrogant that Guo Hong has been while you were away these days.”

It turned out that during Yang Xiaotian’s cultivation in the True Dragon Secret Realm, the Four States Empire had sent envoys to the Divine Dragon Empire.

This time, Guo Hong, the Crown Prince of the Four States Empire, accompanied the delegation to the Divine Dragon Empire and after entering the Empire, challenged disciples of the Martial Ancestor level with his own status as a Martial Ancestor.

He even boasted that he would single-handedly challenge all the Martial Ancestors of the Divine Dragon Empire.

Upon hearing this, the talented disciples from all the Supreme Sects of the Divine Dragon Empire were infuriated and went to accept the challenge one after another.

However, even disciples from Supreme Sects like the Ancient Divine Sect, Subduing Dragon Sword Sect, and Mah? Divine Sect were no match for Guo Hong.

Nobody could withstand his attacks more than three moves.

Many couldn’t even last a single move.

“Guo Hong was invincible all the way through, and after arriving at the Imperial Capital, he became even more arrogant; he said that all the geniuses of our Divine Dragon Empire, including the descendants of the Divine Dragon Imperial Clan, were trash,” Yang Ling’er continued, “My sister-in-law couldn’t stand it and challenged him to a fight.”

Without saying, Qingxuan ultimately lost.

“Was Qingxuan hurt?” Yang Xiaotian asked.

Yang Ling’er hemmed and hawed.

Seeing his sister’s expression, Yang Xiaotian felt a heaviness in his heart.
