Charge at Sky-Stepping Sect!
Upon hearing the murderous proclamation of the Iceflame Qilin, everyone’s heart skipped a beat.
Yang Xiaotian looked at the True Dragon Divine Sect, now unrecognizable in its destruction, and felt a towering rage within him. He approached his parents, “Father, Mother, how are you?”
“We are fine,” Yang Chao and Huang Ying shook their heads.
Just now, they and Yang Ling’er had ingested elixirs, so their injuries were not serious.
Knowing that his family’s injuries were minor, Yang Xiaotian turned to look in the direction of Wu Peng and others’ escape and coldly said, “Kill!” With that, he leaped up and landed on the head of the Azure Thunder Python.
The Azure Thunder Python, carrying Yang Xiaotian, soared into the sky.
The Iceflame Qilin closely followed behind.
Millions of beasts, Phantom Sea Demon Sect, Assassin Tower, Azure Blood Sect, Thousand Snakes Manor all followed suit.
Li Zhengqing and the Tyrant Dragon also joined the pursuit.
Seeing this, powers from all sides gasped in shock.
This was a battle that would shatter the heavens and split the earth!
“If the fight continues, I fear the Empire itself will be bombed through!” an elder of a Sect trembled as he spoke.
The battle had just affected countless mountains, forests, and rivers due to the clash of energies from the two Beast Gods and others, all now obliterated and vanished.
“Quick, let’s follow them!” Some Sect elders, however, were excited and followed.
Disciples of Sky-Stepping Sect always considered themselves the foremost Sect under heaven, arrogant and despotic, bullying and high-handed, striking any Sect they wished and tormenting any they chose. Today was a rare occasion to see Sky-Stepping Sect defeated, so naturally, they wanted to witness its abject humiliation.
Sky-Stepping Sect’s Wu Peng, piloting the Imperial Sea Divine Ark, fled. Seeing that Yang Xiaotian, along with the Azure Thunder Python and the Iceflame Qilin, was still relentlessly chasing him, couldn’t help but feel a surge of anger.
“One day, I will eradicate every single disciple of True Dragon Divine Sect!”
“I will slice off the flesh of Yang Xiaotian layer by layer!”
Wu Peng’s murderous intent peaked.
“Do we turn and fight?” Tang Hong saw that Yang Xiaotian was still doggedly chasing them and was also furious.
He had never felt so humiliated and pathetic.
Wu Peng’s eyes were cold: “He wants to chase? Then let him chase! Later, we’ll lead him into our Sky-Stepping Divine Formation!”
As soon as they returned to Sky-Stepping Sect, they could lure Yang Xiaotian and others into the Sky-Stepping Divine Formation, and Wu Peng was confident he could wipe them out completely.
The Sky-Stepping Divine Formation and the Divine Dragon Great Formation of the Divine Dragon Capital were the two strongest Godly Formations in the Divine Dragon Empire.
Once Yang Xiaotian and the others entered the Sky-Stepping Divine Formation, even if the Iceflame Qilin and the Azure Thunder Python had unimaginable strength, they couldn’t escape.
Not to mention the likes of Phantom Sea Demon Sect, Assassin Tower, Azure Blood Sect, Thousand Snakes Manor.
“Good, we’ll lure them into the Sky-Stepping Divine Formation and ensure Yang Xiaotian and his people have no chance of returning!” Tang Hong’s eyes also gleamed with a deadly intent.
Thus, Yang Xiaotian and his group pursued relentlessly until they neared the gates of the Sky-Stepping Sect.
However, upon approaching the gates of the Sky-Stepping Sect, the Azure Thunder Python and the Iceflame Qilin stopped.
“Young Master, the gates of Sky-Stepping Sect are just ahead,” the Azure Thunder Python spoke thoughtfully. “The Sky-Stepping Divine Formation is one of the Empire’s two greatest Godly Formations. Once Wu Peng activates it, even we may not be certain of getting out.”
“Sky-Stepping Divine Formation!” Yang Xiaotian frowned as he looked towards the undulating mountains of the Sky-Stepping Sect.
“Even with your combined efforts and the onslaught of millions of beasts, the Sky-Stepping Divine Formation cannot be broken?” he inquired.
The Iceflame Qilin shook its head, “The Sky-Stepping Divine Formation is an all-in-one Godly Formation designed for offense, defense, and entrapment. Once activated, it can more than double the strength of Wu Peng and the others.”
More than double?
Wouldn’t that be equivalent to thirty-four Divine Spirits?
Yang Xiaotian’s expression darkened.
He clenched his fists tightly, took a deep breath, and said coldly, “Bombard the surroundings of Sky-Stepping Sect a hundred times!”
“`
Thus, the deafening sounds of a heaven-shaking barrage kept erupting.
Wu Peng and the others, hearing the relentless bombardment outside the Sky-Stepping Sect’s gates, couldn’t help but look unsightly.
Only after the Iceflame Qilin, Azure Thunder Python, and others had destroyed the area a hundred times over did Yang Xiaotian finally lead everyone away.
After a long while, when Wu Peng and the others emerged from the Sky-Stepping Sect, they were livid, only to see that outside the mountain gates lay a series of terrifying abysses, an endless sight.
From then on, the disciples of the Sky-Stepping Sect would have no choice but to fly if they wished to enter or leave the mountain gates.
For the ground, there was no longer any path to tread.
“Contact the Green Sea God Sect and the Four States Imperial Family for me!” Wu Peng said, suppressing a surge of raging fury.
Night had finally fallen.
It was now deep autumn, and there was a chill in the air.
Yang Xiaotian had already returned to the True Dragon Divine Sect.
He stood in the skies above Heaven-Penetrating Peak, looking at the many palaces and mountains of the True Dragon Divine Sect that had been destroyed, his whole body radiating an aura of grim resolve.
He swore that one day, he would personally slay Wu Peng, Tang Hong, Xiao Xiong, and the seventeen Divine Spirits.
However, the battle today had made Yang Xiaotian acutely aware of his own weakness.
Although his cultivation speed had far surpassed that of his peers, facing Divine Spirit Realm beings like Wu Peng, he was still too weak.
His strength needed to increase, increase, and then increase some more!
Next, he must first bring his two Supreme Martial Spirits to the level of the Supreme King Martial Spirit.
But, thinking of the million-year-old Soul Beast, he still felt a headache, where could he now find the Nine Heavens Tribulation Thunder Water?
In the following days, Yang Xiaotian stayed at Heaven-Penetrating Peak, diligently cultivating the Primordial Dragon Art, the Thunderclap Nine Heavens, and the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique.
While Yang Xiaotian was cultivating, Hu Nan, Long Jiyi, and Long Lan all paid him visits.
Hu Nan mentioned Liu Ping, assuring Yang Xiaotian that he would certainly slay that vile woman himself in the future!
Recalling how he often crossed swords with that vile woman over the years, Hu Nan grew increasingly disgusted the more he thought about it.
When Long Jiyi and Long Lan saw Yang Xiaotian again, they both had mixed feelings. Previously, they had always regarded Yang Xiaotian as a junior, but since the shocking battle, they dared not treat him as a junior anymore.
However, upon leaving, both extended hearty invitations to Yang Xiaotian to visit the Imperial Palace.
Yang Xiaotian could only nod in agreement, saying he would visit when he had time.
But for now, all he wanted to do was cultivate, cultivate, and cultivate some more.
Autumn gave way to winter.
Before they knew it, the cold winter had arrived.
The True Dragon Divine Sect was covered in white snow.
Another year had passed, and it was the New Year.
On New Year’s Day, Yang Xiaotian did not cultivate but spent a joyful day with his family at Heaven-Penetrating Peak.
After the New Year, Yang Xiaotian turned twelve years old.
Due to his habitual consumption of Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water and practice of the Primordial Dragon Art, he was taller than other children his age, standing over one meter sixty, and his figure was tall and straight, his appearance handsome and extraordinary.
His eyes were even more like stars, profound and deep.
Two months later, Yang Xiaotian’s cultivation broke through to the late tenth layer of the Martial Ancestor realm, drawing ever closer to the Martial Emperor Realm.
Yet, what frustrated Yang Xiaotian was that Tian Zhengyi and the others still had not found any news about the Nine Heavens Tribulation Thunder Water.
One day, Huang Ying came to find Yang Xiaotian, hesitating as she spoke, “Xiaotian, your father and I have been away for a few years now, and we would like to go back to the Divine Sea Country for a visit.”
“Go back to the Divine Sea Country?” Yang Xiaotian was surprised.
Huang Ying nodded, “In a few days, it will be your grandpa’s sixtieth birthday, and I haven’t seen your grandfather in some years. I’m worried about him and would like to visit.”
