Moreover, from the book about Celestial Burial Mountain, he learned that there were definitely more than one Innate Sword Formation and Innate Sword Spirit, and their ranks should be high.
“Not just one.” Xiaotian’s heart rejoiced.
If that was the case, then there was hope for him to condense the ninth Sword Heart.
Out of the hundreds of empires on the Azure God Continent, there were vast numbers of Sword Dao Geniuses, not lacking those who had condensed Sword Hearts, even capable of condensing the seventh, the eighth Sword Hearts.
But Sword Dao Geniuses who could condense the ninth Sword Heart were extremely rare.
Some said that as long as one could condense nine Sword Hearts, there was hope of becoming a Sword God in the future!
Although it wasn’t absolute, the significance of the ninth Sword Heart could still be seen.
The ninth Sword Heart was an extremely important watershed.
Now, he was just waiting to ascend Celestial Burial Mountain on the first of next month.
It could be said that everything was ready, just waiting for the east wind.
Zuo Qiu, who was guarding outside the Book Pavilion, rushed forward to greet Yang Xiaotian as he saw him coming out, and with a bitter smile, he said, “My dear grandfather, you have finally come out.”
“You don’t know how many times Senior Sister Mu has come looking for you these past few days.”
Only then did Yang Xiaotian remember that Mu Yunchun had said she wanted to discuss something with him in the evening.
During the days he spent in the Book Pavilion, aside from reading the book about Celestial Burial Mountain, he also read many of the pavilion’s rare and ancient texts, which caused him to lose track of time.
Zuo Qiu chuckled and said, “Brother, now that you’re out, why don’t we go discuss matters with her tonight?”
Yang Xiaotian laughed and said, “I won’t go, you go ahead.”
Zuo Qiu swallowed hard and said, “Even if I had five legs, I wouldn’t dare go. There was a student who sneaked up to Senior Sister Mu’s Peach Blossom Peak at night, and she snapped off all three of his legs.”
“So I’d rather not. I still want to walk on three legs.”
Yang Xiaotian was startled for a moment, then smiled.
“During the few days you were in the Book Pavilion, Celestial Burial Academy was in an uproar. Many were talking about you rejecting Wei Zongyuan, and even many were comparing you to Wei Zongyuan,” Zuo Qiu said. “Moreover, He Zhen deliberately spread rumors, saying that you intentionally hid your battle strength during the talent assessment at the stone monument.”
“They’re saying your true talent is six thousand!”
“They’re saying you have higher talent than Wei Zongyuan!”
“He’s doing this to deliberately incite hatred against you, to make Wei Zongyuan and his followers hate you even more!”
Spreading rumors?
It couldn’t really be considered spreading rumors.
Yang Xiaotian’s expression remained unchanged: “How is that He Zhen now?”
“His right arm has been reattached, but it’s not as good as before,” Zuo Qiu said. “It’s said that the He Family from Eastern Desolate has sent a lot of experts here, and they’ve already left the Eastern Desolate, probably arriving by the end of the month.”
Upon saying this, he advised Yang Xiaotian, “Now, even more people in Celestial Burial Academy are eyeing your Saint-level Buddha Pill; brother, why don’t you leave the academy for a while, hide away somewhere outside?”
Yang Xiaotian shook his head upon hearing this, “I’m still planning to ascend Burying Heaven Mountain next month.”
Although Zuo Qiu had not been in contact with Xiaotian for long, he knew Xiaotian’s nature and no longer tried to persuade him.
He remembered something and spoke, “Also, the Little Medicine King came looking for you yesterday.”
“Little Medicine King?” Yang Xiaotian asked.
“Yes, Little Medicine King Li Yutian! He is the grandson of the Grand Master of Pharmacists of the Buddha Source Empire Pharmacist Hall. His alchemy talent is recognized as the best among the young generation of the Buddha Source Empire,” Zuo Qiu said. “Apart from him, there’s also Long Batian, Shi Huang, Phoenix Lady!”
Long Batian, Shi Huang, Phoenix Lady, they were the paragons of the young generation in Celestial Burial Academy, their Martial Dao Talent even higher than He Zhen’s.
Moreover, the three of them were of prestigious identity, coming from the superpowers of the Buddha Source Empire.
Long Batian was from Long Family of Zhongzhou.
Shi Huang was also from Shi Family of Zhongzhou.
And the Phoenix Lady was from the Phoenix Clan.
The Phoenix Clan had a heritage that dated back to ancient times, with a powerful lineage, and the Phoenix Lady was the Clan Leader’s daughter.
Whether it was the Long Family, the Shi Family, or the Phoenix Clan, they were all among the most powerful superpowers in the Buddha Source Empire.
Zuo Qiu had already mentioned these three to Yang Xiaotian before.
Yang Xiaotian wondered, what did these four want with him by coming together? Their joint approach must signify an important matter.
“Did they say what it was about?” Yang Xiaotian asked.
“They didn’t specify what it was, just mentioned it was an important matter they wished to discuss with you, and that once you came out, you could find them at Medicine King Peak,” Zuo Qiu shook his head as he spoke, then he leaned in, smiling, “Brother, Wine Peak has recently produced a fine wine; it’s rare for you to be out and about, shall we go check out Wine Peak?”
Wine Peak was the place where the Celestial Burial Academy produced wine.
It had all sorts of fine wines.
It was also the place most frequented by the millions of students from the Celestial Burial Academy when they took a break from their training.
Seeing Zuo Qiu’s craving look, Yang Xiaotian smiled and said, “Then let’s go.”
At the moment Yang Xiaotian and Zuo Qiu set off for Wine Peak, in the great hall of Medicine King Peak, Little Medicine King Li Yutian, Long Batian, Shi Huang, and the Phoenix Lady were gathered, discussing Yang Xiaotian.
“What do you think, will Yang Xiaotian agree to join us to the Evil Land?” the Phoenix Lady asked.
Dragon Overlord King’s voice was loud, “The treasure of the Thousand Buddha Medicine God, he won’t be able to resist! Besides, it’s highly likely that the Thousand Buddha Divine Fire is in the treasury of the Thousand Buddha Medicine God.”
The Thousand Buddha Divine Fire, one of the top ten Divine Flames.
“If Yang Xiaotian really helps us open the treasury of the Thousand Buddha Medicine God, do we have to split the treasure with him?” Shi Huang frowned, obviously not wanting to share the treasure of the Thousand Buddha Medicine God with an additional person.
Little Medicine King Li Yutian sneered, “Once he opens the treasury of the Thousand Buddha Medicine God, he will no longer be of any use to us. Then, we can simply kill him.”
“And we’ll divide the seven Saint-level Buddha Pills on his body!”
“Killing two birds with one stone!”
At this point, their subordinates came to report that Yang Xiaotian had already left the Book Pavilion and gone to Wine Peak.
Upon hearing this, the four of them immediately stood up and headed towards Wine Peak.
At this time, Yang Xiaotian had arrived at Wine Peak.
There, hundreds of streams of wine flowed down like waterfalls.
The wine cascaded non-stop between the peaks.
Even from a great distance, an intoxicating aroma of wine could be smelled.
From afar, looking at the hundreds of wine waterfalls, Zuo Qiu couldn’t help swallowing his saliva.
However, just as the two were about to settle down at Wine Peak, they saw a large group of experts flying towards them from afar.
This large group of experts probably numbered sixty or seventy thousand.
Seeing the newcomers, Zuo Qiu’s face changed dramatically, “It’s Black Wind Sect’s Young Sect Hierarch Chen Sha!”
Chen Sha was one of the many followers of Wei Zongyuan.
Although the Black Wind Sect was not as powerful as the He Family or Long Family, it was still one of the superpowers in the Buddha Source Empire.
Chen Sha was known for his ruthless methods, with the disciples of various major families who had died under his hands numbering in the thousands, if not tens of thousands.
Soon, Chen Sha arrived with his experts.
The sixty or seventy thousand experts spread out behind him with an overwhelming momentum, all glaring at Yang Xiaotian and Zuo Qiu with murderous intent in their eyes.
“You’re Yang Xiaotian, right?” Chen Sha’s gaze rested upon Yang Xiaotian, his eyes filled with Black Demon energy, “What gives you the right to have our young master wait for you outside the Book Pavilion!”
“And what makes you worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as our young master!”
“In my eyes, you are not even worthy to carry our young master’s shoes!”
“If you crawl from here to Sword God Peak right now, we can forget what happened before, otherwise, I will crush your bones to dust right now!”
Sword God Peak was where Wei Zongyuan resided.
It was hundreds of miles away from Wine Peak.
If Yang Xiaotian were to crawl there, who knows when he would arrive.
