Invincible Divine Sword

Chapter 603: Chapter 603: Battle Against Liang Heng

In the blaze that reached the heavens, ten immense Heavenly Fates flew out.

Qi Tian Medicine God, Heavenly Monarch Xiao, and all the elders present had never seen such enormous Heavenly Fates.

Each Heavenly Fate seemed as if it was going to cover heaven and earth.

As these ten colossal Heavenly Fates emerged, the Imperial Palace Square, home to numerous powerhouses of the Linyuan Empire, suddenly seemed to shrink!

“Twelve thousand nine hundred and sixty li! What… what kind of Heavenly Fate is this!” Watching these colossal Heavenly Fates that seemed as if they were going to fill the entire sky, the elders were shocked one after another.

Qi Tian Medicine God and Heavenly Monarch Xiao looked at each other, both seeing the astonishment in the other’s eyes.

In unison, yet with different voices, they said, “Primordial Heaven Destiny!”

Hearing the Qi Tian Medicine God and Heavenly Monarch Xiao speak, all the elders present were deeply shaken.

“Primordial Heaven Destiny?! The Primordial Heaven Destiny that surpasses the heavens!”

“He has triggered the Primordial Destiny Tribulation that even the Desolate Heavenly Emperor could not!”

Many elders were astounded.

They finally understood what kind of Heavenly Fate these immense Heavenly Fates were!

The legendary Primordial Heaven Destiny, isn’t it precisely twelve thousand nine hundred and sixty li!

Xie Zetao, Liang Heng, Wang Yang, each disciple chosen by the empire looked at the ten great Primordial Heaven Destinies covering heaven and earth before them, struck breathless.

Yang Xiaotian, the Divine Protector Alchemist, had actually cultivated ten great Primordial Heaven Destinies.

As the ten great Primordial Heaven Destinies emerged, the fierce Primordial Destiny power churned heaven and earth.

Energy streams exploded with noise.

Many elders were blown unstable on their feet.

Under the overwhelming force of the ten Primordial Heaven Destinies, even the power of Xie Zetao’s thirteen nine-layered Holy Fruits was shockingly dissipated.

Yang Xiaotian swung his sword.

The power of the ten Primordial Heaven Destinies transformed into the Primordial Heavenly Sword.

Just as Xie Zetao, who a moment ago with the momentum of thunder was about to defeat Yang Xiaotian, was struck as if hit by a heavy blow and sent flying, his Divine Sword even more so was struck flying into the air.

Xie Zetao spat blood from his mouth, crashed to the ground, and barely had he stood up when he saw the Primordial Heavenly Sword hovering before his brow.

Looking at the Primordial Heavenly Sword so close before him, Xie Zetao’s face was filled with bitterness.

He understood, he had lost!

He, who had the Eternal Divine Emperor Body and talent comparable to the Ancestral Great Emperor of their Linyuan Empire, had indeed one day lost to someone who had just broken through to the fourth level of the Saint Realm.

The transformation before everyone caused a stir.

Before this moment, the power of Heavenly Fate was completely incapable of contending with the power of Holy Fruits.

But now, thirteen nine-layered Holy Fruits were defeated by ten great Primordial Heaven Destinies!

“You’ve lost,” Yang Xiaotian said to Xie Zetao.

This statement hit Xie Zetao’s heart like a heavy hammer.

Xie Zetao’s face paled.

In the preliminary selection of the empire, he, the Crown Prince of the Linyuan Empire, in the latter stages of the second level of Divine Spirit, originally had high hopes to clinch one of the top three spots. But now, he couldn’t even pass the second round of the selection.

He looked around at everyone present.

All he saw was silence around him. The way people looked at him was filled with nothing but sighs of regret and even pity.

Yes, pity.

A spasm crossed Xie Zetao’s heart.

He never thought there would come a day when he would be subject to pity.

Taking a deep breath, Xie Zetao bowed to Yang Xiaotian with folded hands, “I’ve lost. Thank you for showing mercy.” Having said this, he turned around and left the platform, then picking up his Divine Sword from the distant ground, he left the Imperial Palace Square under everyone’s gaze.

Xie Zetao used to bask in endless glory, but now his figure was filled with endless loneliness.

The Empire Great Emperor and the ancestors of the Linyuan Empire watched Xie Zetao’s departing figure with silent sighs in their hearts.

This outcome was something nobody had expected, including them.

Xie Zetao, with the Eternal Divine Emperor Body and who cultivated thirteen nine-layered Holy Fruits, had actually lost to someone of the fourth level of the Saint Realm?

“Eternal Divine Miracle!” Qi Tian Medicine God uttered, looking at Yang Xiaotian.

With the strength of the fourth level of the Saint Realm, defeating a late second-level Divine Spirit, if this battle were to spread, Yang Xiaotian’s name would shake the world.

Heavenly Monarch Xiao watched Yang Xiaotian with mixed emotions and sighed, “None in eternity surpasses this.”

Even if a late tenth-level Saint Realm peak were to defeat a late second-level Divine Spirit, it would shake the world, let alone Yang Xiaotian defeating a late second-level Divine Spirit with the strength of the fourth level of the Saint Realm.

Such an event had never occurred in all of eternity.

Under the complex gazes of the crowd, Yang Xiaotian stepped down from the arena.

Wang Yang, watching Yang Xiaotian’s figure, felt sweat in his palms.

After this battle, if his master were to learn that he had taken a hundred thousand inferior Spirit Stones from Yang Xiaotian, he feared his skin would not only be flayed, but perhaps even his hairs plucked out one by one.

After Yang Xiaotian’s victory over Xie Zetao, the second round of the disciples’ competitions also came to an end.

However, Liang Heng, Wang Yang, Peng Lin, and others, after descending from the arena, dared not stand close to Yang Xiaotian.

It was as if Yang Xiaotian were a Desolate epochal beast.

The old ancestors present eyed Liang Heng, Wang Yang, and the rest of the Divine Spirit Realm youths with peculiar expressions as they feared Yang Xiaotian so.

Those in the Divine Spirit Realm fearing a fourth-level Saint Realm, had it been mentioned before, they would not have believed it.

But now, it was happening right before everyone’s eyes.

Next was the third round of competition.

Yang Xiaotian and the others stepped forward to draw lots, everyone automatically allowing Yang Xiaotian to draw first, and when they saw that Yang Xiaotian drew number two, many prayed they wouldn’t draw the same number.

Ultimately, the one who drew number two was the Holy Son of the Deng Family.

Seeing that the Holy Son of the Deng Family drew number two, Liang Heng, Wang Yang, and others breathed a sigh of relief, while the Holy Son himself had a deathly pale face.

In the end, Yang Xiaotian easily defeated the Holy Son of the Deng Family.

After the third round, came the fourth, the fifth…

One after another, matches proceeded until at last, it was the battle for the top hundred.

Following the top hundred came the top fifty, the top thirty.

Finally, the top ten of the Linyuan Empire emerged.

Liang Heng, Wang Yang, and Peng Lin all made it into the top ten.

Seeing Liang Heng, Wang Yang, and Peng Lin all enter the top ten, Heavenly Monarch Xiao, along with those from the Sword God Hall and the Peng Family, all breathed a sigh of relief.

What followed was the battle for the first place.

Yang Xiaotian and the others stepped forward to draw lots.

Liang Heng and Yang Xiaotian both drew number one, and seeing this outcome, Liang Heng’s heart sank.

Heavenly Monarch Xiao also frowned slightly.

He had not expected that in the first battle of the top ten, his disciple would encounter Yang Xiaotian.

No matter who it was, the person everyone least wanted to face in battle was Yang Xiaotian.

Liang Heng took a moment to compose himself before flying onto the arena with Yang Xiaotian.

He looked at Yang Xiaotian, cupped his fists, and said, “Honored Divine Protector Alchemist, please enlighten me.” After speaking, he no longer concealed his strength, and the Divine Power surged throughout his body.

“Divine Spirit third level!”

Upon seeing that Liang Heng was of the third level of the Divine Spirit, the crowd was taken aback.

Before this, everyone had thought that Liang Heng was at the peak of the late second level of Divine Spirit.

It seemed that Liang Heng had recently made a breakthrough, reaching the third level of Divine Spirit.

“Lord Liang Heng has broken through to the third level of Divine Spirit, and in the upcoming fight, he might not necessarily lose to the honored Divine Protector Alchemist,” a disciple discussed.

After reaching the Divine Spirit Realm, breaking through each minor realm would significantly increase one’s strength. With Liang Heng’s breakthrough to the third level of Divine Spirit, his strength was much greater than before.

Immediately after, the Sword Qi around Liang Heng’s body skyrocketed, with the nine Supreme Sword Intents enveloping him.

Previously, Zhang Wei had eight Supreme Sword Intents.

Now, Liang Heng had nine Supreme Sword Intents.

Once one comprehended the nine Supreme Sword Intents, it meant that Liang Heng had stepped into the realm of a Sword God.
