Chapter 283: Chapter 283: Climbing to Sword God Peak
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.
âNot just one.â Xiaotianâs 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 wasnât 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, âMy dear grandfather, you have finally come out.â
âYou donât know how many times Senior Sister Mu has come looking for you these past few days.â
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 pavilionâs rare and ancient texts, which caused him to lose track of time.
Zuo Qiu chuckled and said, âBrother, now that youâre out, why donât we go discuss matters with her tonight?â
Yang Xiaotian laughed and said, âI wonât go, you go ahead.â
Zuo Qiu swallowed hard and said, âEven if I had five legs, I wouldnât dare go. There was a student who sneaked up to Senior Sister Muâs Peach Blossom Peak at night, and she snapped off all three of his legs.â
âSo Iâd rather not. I still want to walk on three legs.â
Yang Xiaotian was startled for a moment, then smiled.
âDuring 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,â Zuo Qiu said. âMoreover, He Zhen deliberately spread rumors, saying that you intentionally hid your battle strength during the talent assessment at the stone monument.â
âTheyâre saying your true talent is six thousand!â
âTheyâre saying you have higher talent than Wei Zongyuan!â
âHeâs doing this to deliberately incite hatred against you, to make Wei Zongyuan and his followers hate you even more!â
Spreading rumors?
It couldnât really be considered spreading rumors.
Yang Xiaotianâs expression remained unchanged: âHow is that He Zhen now?â
âHis right arm has been reattached, but itâs not as good as before,â Zuo Qiu said. âItâs said that the He Family from Eastern Desolate has sent a lot of experts here, and theyâve already left the Eastern Desolate, probably arriving by the end of the month.â
Upon saying this, he advised Yang Xiaotian, âNow, even more people in Celestial Burial Academy are eyeing your Saint-level Buddha Pill; brother, why donât you leave the academy for a while, hide away somewhere outside?â
Yang Xiaotian shook his head upon hearing this, âIâm still planning to ascend Burying Heaven Mountain next month.â
Although Zuo Qiu had not been in contact with Xiaotian for long, he knew Xiaotianâs nature and no longer tried to persuade him.
He remembered something and spoke, âAlso, the Little Medicine King came looking for you yesterday.â
âLittle Medicine King?â Yang Xiaotian asked.
âYes, 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,â Zuo Qiu said. âApart from him, thereâs also Long Batian, Shi Huang, Phoenix Lady!â
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 Zhenâs.
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 Leaderâs 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.
âDid they say what it was about?â Yang Xiaotian asked.
âThey didnât 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,â Zuo Qiu shook his head as he spoke, then he leaned in, smiling, âBrother, Wine Peak has recently produced a fine wine; itâs rare for you to be out and about, shall we go check out Wine Peak?â
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 Qiuâs craving look, Yang Xiaotian smiled and said, âThen letâs go.â
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.
âWhat do you think, will Yang Xiaotian agree to join us to the Evil Land?â the Phoenix Lady asked.
Dragon Overlord Kingâs voice was loud, âThe treasure of the Thousand Buddha Medicine God, he wonât be able to resist! Besides, itâs highly likely that the Thousand Buddha Divine Fire is in the treasury of the Thousand Buddha Medicine God.â
The Thousand Buddha Divine Fire, one of the top ten Divine Flames.
âIf Yang Xiaotian really helps us open the treasury of the Thousand Buddha Medicine God, do we have to split the treasure with him?â 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, âOnce 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.â
âAnd weâll divide the seven Saint-level Buddha Pills on his body!â
âKilling two birds with one stone!â
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 couldnât 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 Qiuâs face changed dramatically, âItâs Black Wind Sectâs Young Sect Hierarch Chen Sha!â
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.
âYouâre Yang Xiaotian, right?â Chen Shaâs gaze rested upon Yang Xiaotian, his eyes filled with Black Demon energy, âWhat gives you the right to have our young master wait for you outside the Book Pavilion!â
âAnd what makes you worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as our young master!â
âIn my eyes, you are not even worthy to carry our young masterâs shoes!â
âIf 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!â
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.
