Chapter 787: Chapter 787: Origin Qi and Primordial Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water
"A hundred steles!" Luo Huaming said in shock, then, he became so excited that his words were almost incoherent, "Divine Son! Our Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect finally has a Divine Son!"
These were the rules set by Hong Feng, if anyone could activate a hundred Sword Steles, then they would be the Divine Son of the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect.
The ancestors of the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect were also excited.
At last, their Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect had produced a talent who could activate a hundred Sword Steles.
Lord Sword Ancestor Hong Feng had once said that only those who could comprehend a hundred Sword Steles would be eligible to inherit his mantle.
Just as Luo Huaming and the others were caught up in their excitement, suddenly, the hundred Sword Steles trembled with light, and a hundred strands of Primordial Universe Qi flew out of the steles and into Yang Xiaotian’s body.
Yang Xiaotian couldn’t help but be surprised.
Then, he was overjoyed, not having expected that comprehending a hundred Sword Steles would also reward him with a hundred strands of Primordial Universe Qi.
Yang Xiaotian promptly circulated his Cultivation Technique and began the initial refinement of the hundred strands of Primordial Universe Qi inside his body.
Moments later, the excited Luo Huaming and others finally arrived at the examination plaza.
"Greetings, Sect Hierarch!" Great Elder Lu Chang hurried to meet Luo Huaming and the others upon their arrival, along with everyone else who came forward to pay their respects.
Luo Huaming nodded to the crowd and walked toward Yang Xiaotian.
Yang Xiaotian hesitated for a moment, then greeted Luo Huaming with a fist salute, "Greetings, Sect Hierarch."
Luo Huaming responded to Yang Xiaotian with a smile, "Good! Young friend, what is your name?"
"I am Yang Xiaotian," Yang Xiaotian replied.
Luo Huaming savored the name carefully, "Xiaotian, vast heaven, good, this name is excellent." Then, he introduced the Myriad Aspects Goddess to Yang Xiaotian, saying cheerfully, "Xiaotian, this is the Myriad Aspects Goddess from the Myriad Aspects Divine Palace."
The Myriad Aspects Divine Palace was indeed the premier power on the Azure Dragon Continent.
Yang Xiaotian looked at the woman in front of him, no less beautiful than Long Qingxuan or Wan Ning, and was somewhat astonished, having not expected to meet the Myriad Aspects Goddess from the Myriad Aspects Divine Palace here.
The Myriad Aspects Goddess stared at Yang Xiaotian with a smile brimming with intent, "Young Master Yang’s Sword Dao Talent is astonishing. Junlan is impressed. I wonder how many types of Sword Intent the young master has cultivated?"
Everyone’s gaze fell onto Yang Xiaotian.
The Ten Sword Young Master was also curious about how many types of Sword Intent Yang Xiaotian had indeed cultivated.
And to what realms each type of Sword Intent had been cultivated.
Yang Xiaotian laughed and said, "The outside world says Miss Lin’s Sword Dao is unmatched. I wonder how many types of Sword Intent Miss Lin has cultivated."
Upon hearing this, the Myriad Aspects Goddess, Lin Junlan, was momentarily startled, then burst into a smile as radiant as a myriad of flowers blooming, "I hope to have the opportunity to exchange pointers with Young Master Yang in the future." Then she said to Luo Huaming, "Sect Hierarch Luo, now that the matters here are concluded, I should return to the Myriad Aspects God Palace. I take my leave."
"Miss Lin, travel safely," Luo Huaming escorted Myriad Aspects Goddess Lin Junlan out of the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect’s Sect Entrance and then turned to lead Yang Xiaotian, accompanied by the Kui Ox, back through the Sect Entrance of the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect.
The disciples who had attended the examination watched Yang Xiaotian enter through the Sect Entrance of the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect, all wearing expressions of envy, amazement, and rife with speculation.
"What do you think, how many types of Sword Intent has Yang Xiaotian cultivated?"
"The Ten Sword Young Master has cultivated ten types of Sword Intent at the Great Achievement Realm that should activate fifty Sword Steles. This Yang Xiaotian must have at least cultivated eleven types of Supreme Sword Intent at the Perfection Realm!"
"I think even more, his Sword Dao Talent is definitely more monstrous than Young Master Qianyu!"
The crowd was abuzz with discussion.
Sword Prodigy watched as Yang Xiaotian’s figure disappeared into the distance, his expression complex.
Looking at the hundred Sword Steles that still emitted a faint afterglow, he clenched his fists and stepped towards the Steles. If Yang Xiaotian could comprehend ten Sword Steles at once, he refused to believe that he couldn’t do the same.
After being welcomed into the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect’s mountain gate by Luo Huaming and others, Yang Xiaotian learned that comprehending a hundred Sword Steles would qualify him to become a Divine Son of the Sect.
Yang Xiaotian was arranged to stay in the Divine Palace designated for the Sect’s Divine Sons.
What puzzled Yang Xiaotian was that after his comprehension of the hundred Sword Steles, if his master Hong Feng were present, he would have appeared by now, yet there was no sign of him.
Could it be that his master was not around?
Early the next day, after Yang Xiaotian had refined several strands of Primordial Universe Qi, Luo Huaming came to visit him to see if he had settled in comfortably. Should he need anything, he could directly seek out Luo Huaming, who was also there to discuss the official confirmation of his status as a Divine Son.
As one of the Azure Dragon Continent’s top ten superpowers, the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect naturally did not take the anointing of a Divine Son lightly, hence a grand ceremony was needed.
Yang Xiaotian inquired about Hong Feng.
"A few years ago, master said he would go out to search for the Sword Array that gives birth to the Sword Domain," Luo Huaming disclosed without concealment. "Master is not at the mountain gate."
Surprised to hear that Hong Feng went to search for a Sword Array that gives birth to the Sword Domain, Yang Xiaotian asked, "Do you know where Lord Sword Ancestor went and when he will return?"
Luo Huaming shook his head, "Master’s whereabouts are unpredictable; no one knows when he will return. It could be as short as ten years or as long as several decades." Then he smiled at Yang Xiaotian, "You are now our Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect’s Divine Son. You must change how you address me. From now on, call me Senior Brother, and my master will be your master."
After chatting for a while, Yang Xiaotian couldn’t help but ask about the Sand of Time, Primordial Universe Qi, Origin Qi, and Primordial Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water.
Luo Huaming paused for a moment, then laughed, "The items little junior brother seeks are all treasures of the Divine Domain. Our Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect indeed has some Sand of Time and Primordial Universe Qi."
"However, the Origin Qi and Primordial Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water are not abundant. Even I cannot utilize these Origin Qi and Primordial Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water."
"The Sect reserves the Origin Qi and Primordial Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water to reward competitors in the Core Disciple contest."
"The first place winner of each Core Disciple contest receives a reward of ten strands of Origin Qi and one drop of Primordial Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water!"
Yang Xiaotian was taken aback.
Only ten strands of Origin Qi and one drop of Primordial Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water as a reward?
Yang Xiaotian then asked, "Then Senior Brother, can other disciples participate in the Sect’s Core Disciple contest?"
Luo Huaming was startled, glanced at Yang Xiaotian, and laughed, "Does little junior brother also wish to participate? Although your Sword Dao Talent is astonishing, all those who participate in the yearly Core Disciple contest are above the ten-fold Heavenly God. You are just at the first fold of Heavenly God."
Yang Xiaotian chuckled and then inquired, "Do you know of any other way to obtain a large amount of Origin Qi and Primordial Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water, Senior Brother?"
After pondering, Luo Huaming said, "As far as I know, Myriad Aspects Sword Ancestor once obtained an incomplete Sword Array and has always been unable to complete it."
"He once said that if someone could help him complete the Sword Array, he would give that person a hundred strands of Origin Qi and ten drops of Primordial Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water."
A hundred strands of Origin Qi and ten drops of Primordial Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water!
Yang Xiaotian’s heart stirred.
If he could obtain another ten drops of Primordial Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water, then his scorched black tree root would likely revive.
And with those hundred strands of Origin Qi, he should be able to cultivate his Origin Divine Body to the second layer.
Although it was only the second layer, the power of his Origin Divine Body would increase significantly.
"However, even the Myriad Aspects Sword Ancestor cannot repair this incomplete Sword Array. To repair it... will be difficult!" Luo Huaming said, shaking his head.
