Invincible Divine Sword - Chapter 522 - Chapter 522: Chapter 522: Disciple of the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect

Chapter 522: Chapter 522: Disciple of the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect

Jian Lin was astonished.

Although he had anticipated that the sword manual would be difficult to open, he had not expected that his palm would be repelled as soon as it made contact, unable to remain on it for even a moment.

He circulated his Sword Qi again, attempting to break through the Sword Qi of the manual’s cover, but just like before, he was repelled almost the instant he touched it.

The strength of the Sword Qi on the cover was beyond his imagination.

After several attempts, the result remained the same.

In the end, Jian Lin had no choice but to give up.

He shook his head at Lu Zhifan and said, “Even I am helpless against this sword manual left by the Divine Dream Lord.”

Lu Zhifan, who had been holding onto a sliver of hope, couldn’t help feeling disappointed upon hearing this.

Just then, Yang Xiaotian suddenly spoke up, “Let me give it a try.”

Everyone was stunned.

Lu Yutong said to Yang Xiaotian with a smile, “Young Master Yang, this sword manual is left by the Divine Dream Master, whose Sword Dao was unmatched. Our Lu family ancestor tried hundreds of methods and sought the help of hundreds of Sword Dao experts, but none could open it.”

Her implication was clear: if even their Lu family ancestor and hundreds of Sword Dao experts could not open it, how could Yang Xiaotian possibly manage?

Lu Zhifan said with a smile, “No harm in trying, let Xiaotian give it a shot. Perhaps Brother Yang can open it.” Saying this, he handed the sword manual to Yang Xiaotian.

As Yang Xiaotian was brought by Jian Lin, and since Yang Xiaotian had spoken up, it was no harm to let him try.

However, he didn’t hold out much hope.

Yang Xiaotian took the sword manual, his expression calm, and placed his palm on it as usual.

Just when everyone thought Yang Xiaotian’s palm would be repelled by the Sword Qi of the manual’s cover, they saw the Sword Qi on the cover recede like the tide!

In the end, it disappeared without a trace!

The previously circulating Sword Qi on the cover was gone!

Lu Zhifan, who had not been taking it seriously, was dumbfounded.

Lu Yutong was also looking on in utter disbelief.

Even Jian Lin was shocked.

Having repeatedly tried just a moment ago, he was acutely aware of the terrifying power of the Sword Qi on the manual’s cover. Even he, Sword God Nan Tian, couldn’t break through it, yet when Yang Xiaotian placed his palm on it, the Sword Qi just vanished?

“This, this is impossible!” Lu Yutong’s eyes widened in shock.

A sword manual that hundreds of supreme Sword Dao experts of the Myriad Swords Continent had failed to open had just been unlocked by this young man!

After his initial shock and surprise, Lu Zhifan eagerly took the sword manual.

What dumbfounded him, though, was that when he took the manual, the Sword Qi that had disappeared reappeared on it.

The moment Lu Zhifan’s palm made contact, he was once again repelled.

The crowd was once more taken aback.

Lu Zhifan couldn’t help but hand the sword manual back to Yang Xiaotian.

When Yang Xiaotian’s palm touched the manual, the Sword Qi vanished just as before.

Lu Zhifan clasped his fists and said earnestly, “Brother Yang, how did you break through the Sword Qi on this? Please enlighten us.”

Jian Lin was also puzzled; he couldn’t tell how Yang Xiaotian had penetrated the Sword Qi. Yang Xiaotian’s palm seemed to rest on it as usual, without any circulation of True Yuan or any Sword Qi.

“I don’t know how I broke through it either,” Yang Xiaotian shook his head and replied, “When I put my palm on it as I normally would, it just disappeared automatically.”

He certainly couldn’t say that he could open it because he possessed fifteen Invincible Sword Hearts.

Lu Zhifan smiled wryly at this, then clasped his fists and said, “Since that’s the case, we’ll have to ask Brother Yang to help us turn the pages of the sword manual one by one. My Lu family will be sure to show great appreciation.”

The Lu family’s gratitude was of little concern to Yang Xiaotian, but he too was curious about the sword manual left by the Divine Dream Master. Thus, he turned the first page.

The Divine Dream Master was a powerful figure from the same era as his master, Divine Master Hong Feng.

Renowned throughout the Myriad Swords Continent.

“Divine Seal Sword Technique!”

Only the first page bore the four characters of the Divine Seal Sword Technique.

Upon seeing the characters for Divine Seal Sword Technique, Lu Zhifan and Jian Lin trembled with fear.

Especially Lu Zhifan, who was both excited and agitated.

He had not expected that this sword manual contained the Divine Seal Sword Technique.

The Divine Seal Sword Technique was an incredibly powerful swordsmanship from the ancient times.

Afterward, Yang Xiaotian turned to the second page.

The second page presented the first move of the Divine Dream Sword Technique.

Yang Xiaotian then continued to flip through the pages one by one.

Lu Zhifan, Jian Lin, and the others held their breaths and watched intently.

After a while, Yang Xiaotian had flipped through to the last page of the manual.

Although he had only read through it once, he had already committed all the moves to memory and understood their essence.

Still, Yang Xiaotian flipped through it three times.

Lu Zhifan was left longing for more.

Afterward, he gave Yang Xiaotian a large batch of inferior Spirit Stones and a large batch of Spiritual Medicine as a token of gratitude and warmly invited him to stay at the Lu Family home for a few more days.

However, Yang Xiaotian left with Jian Lin that very day.

After leaving the Lu Family, Yang Xiaotian sparred with Jian Lin for a few days to practice Sword Dao before bidding farewell, saying he wanted to wander at will.

One day, as Yang Xiaotian was traveling, he saw a large group of experts heading towards the front.

“Young Emperor Qian actually challenged the Poison Shadow Sect Leader! Young Emperor Qian is one of the nine great Young Emperors of Cangzhou, while the Poison Shadow Sect Leader is a peak master of the Emperor Realm. It’s hard to say who will win or lose.”

“The founder of the Poison Shadow Sect, it is said that he was once a disciple of the Netherworld Demon Sect, though it’s uncertain if that’s true.”

“It’s probably true; the Poison Shadow Divine Skill of the Poison Shadow Sect is indeed a cultivation technique of the Netherworld Demon Sect.”

Hearing the discussions of these experts, Yang Xiaotian felt a surge of interest. A disciple of the Netherworld Demon Sect?

He paused for a moment and then followed them.

Not far away, he arrived at a certain mountain peak along with the group of experts. He saw that the area around the peak was already filled with many masters, clearly there to watch the duel.

Atop the mountain peak, Young Emperor Qian Yuan gazed coldly at the Poison Shadow Sect Leader Li Le, “Li Le, your Poison Shadow Sect slaughtered tens of thousands of disciples from the Silver Moon Sect, not sparing even women and children, displaying extreme cruelty. Today, I shall rid the Myriad Swords Continent of a scourge, starting with your death, followed by the extermination of your Poison Shadow Sect.”

Li Le let out a cold laugh, “That sounds noble, but which of your eyes saw us destroying the Silver Moon Sect? It was your Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect that wiped them out! Your sect is the real tumor of the Myriad Swords Continent!”

“You seek to rule over the Myriad Swords Continent, spouting words of benevolence and righteousness, using various pretexts and banners to eliminate any sects and families that don’t submit to your will!”

Yang Xiaotian was taken aback. The Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect! Was Young Emperor Qian a disciple of that sect?

As soon as Young Emperor Qian Yuan heard this, he thundered, “Silence!” In an instant, he drew his sword and soared into the air, swinging his blade toward Li Le.

The two of them began their fierce battle.

At first, neither could gain the upper hand, but as time passed, Li Le gradually found himself at a disadvantage.

After several exchanges, Li Le was pierced in the chest by Qian Yuan’s sword and sent flying.

Blood trickled from the corner of Li Le’s mouth, and, ignoring his wounds, he turned to flee. However, Qian Yuan chased after him in an instant, plunging his sword into Li Le’s back and sending him flying towards the crowd.

The onlookers, fearing they might be caught in the crossfire, scattered in panic.

As Li Le frantically fled, he headed straight towards Yang Xiaotian.

Qian Yuan’s eyes filled with murderous intent as he thrust his sword with full force towards Li Le’s chest, but the power of the thrust also enveloped Yang Xiaotian.
