Chapter 984: Chapter 984 Primordial Continent
"Oh, you have cultivated your Origin Divine Body to the nineteenth layer!" Duobao Venerable was somewhat surprised.
Last time Yang Xiaotian came, his Origin Divine Body was only at the seventeenth layer, right? How long had it been, and now it’s the nineteenth layer?
When did the Defying Heaven Divine Body become so easy to cultivate?
"Indeed, I have just cultivated my Origin Divine Body to the nineteenth layer and rushed over here," Yang Xiaotian said with a smile.
Duobao Venerable said with a laugh, "Good, since your Origin Divine Body has been cultivated to the nineteenth layer, let’s get ready. We’ll set out in an hour!"
"Thank you, Senior," Yang Xiaotian responded with a smile.
Afterward, Duobao Venerable called his subordinates to prepare, and then he started chatting idly with Yang Xiaotian. While talking leisurely with Xiaotian, he couldn’t help but take an extra glance at the Godslayer King and Red-Haired Old Demon and others standing behind Xiaotian.
"Young Mansion Master, are these your newly recruited subordinates?" Duobao Venerable laughed, "The strength of these followers of yours is unfathomable. Just standing there, they give me the creeps."
Yang Xiaotian said with a chuckle, "Senior jests. With your extraordinary strength, my followers here could hardly be considered your opponents."
Duobao Venerable was the number one Artifact Refiner in the Divine Domain; his strength was naturally extremely formidable.
However, Yang Xiaotian’s words were somewhat modest. Although Duobao Venerable was powerful, the Godslayer King was the number one Sword God of the Demon Ancestor Continent! How could he be weak!
Duobao Venerable said with a laugh, "That’s hard to say." Then he continued, "However, the journey to the Origin Palace is fraught with danger. Do you want to bring more followers with you?"
Dangerous journey?
As Xiaotian wondered, Duobao Venerable said, "We’ll be going to the Primordial Continent."
The Primordial Continent was the northernmost continent in the Divine Domain and, like the Desolate Continent, one of the oldest continents in the Divine Domain.
But the Primordial Continent was different from the Desolate Continent; while the Desolate Continent was a gathering place for all kinds of superpowers and was thriving, the Primordial Continent was barren land, scarcely populated by humans.
There, many terrifying creatures and poisonous beasts were everywhere, making it extremely perilous.
Even Divine Emperors did not dare to set foot in the Primordial Continent lightly.
For a Divine Emperor to enter the Primordial Continent was a near sure death, let alone those Divine Kings and Divine Monarchs.
"The Primordial Continent." Yang Xiaotian was surprised; he did not expect that the Origin Palace would be located on the Primordial Continent.
"Indeed, the Origin Palace is on the Primordial Continent," said Duobao Venerable. "So the Young Mansion Master should really bring more followers."
He glanced at the six Godslayer Kings.
Yang Xiaotian said with a smile, "There’s no need, these six seniors are enough."
Duobao Venerable was taken aback and couldn’t help but take another look at the Godslayer Kings.
But since he had advised, whether or not Yang Xiaotian brought more people was a personal matter for Xiaotian; it was not his place to intervene.
"Father, I want to go too," said Chen Keying, teeth clenched, to the Duobao Venerable.
Duobao Venerable frowned, "The Primordial Continent is dangerous; why would you, a female emperor, go there?"
Being the daughter of Duobao Venerable, Chen Keying’s cultivation was not weak; she was already in the Divine Emperor Realm and had reached the late peak of the God Emperor’s tenth layer, just a step away from the Divine Ancestor Realm.
Yet, even so, Duobao Venerable still thought it dangerous for his daughter with her cultivation to enter the Primordial Continent.
"I have reached the late peak of the God Emperor Tenth Layer; moreover, with you and Uncle Wu Qing there, I won’t be in danger," said Chen Keying. "I also wish to enter the Origin Palace to try my luck at some opportunities."
Duobao Venerable thought it over and finally agreed, "However, when the time comes, you must stay close to Wu Qing and me."
"Okay, father, rest assured, I will definitely follow you and Uncle Wu Qing and not run around," Chen Keying said with a happy smile upon hearing her father’s agreement.
Seeing his daughter’s happy expression, Duobao Venerable secretly shook his head; how could he not know what his daughter was thinking.
An hour quickly passed.
Yang Xiaotian and the others set off for the Primordial Continent.
Originally Duobao Venerable intended to take his own flying ship, but upon seeing Yang Xiaotian bring out the Hanhai Boat, he said with a smile, "Young Mansion Master, your Hanhai Boat is a bit faster; we will ride on your Hanhai Boat if that’s okay?"
Yang Xiaotian said with a smile, "Where there is such talk, Elder, there’s absolutely no problem, of course."
Thus, Duobao Venerable, Chen Keying, and the others boarded Yang Xiaotian’s Hanhai Boat.
To save time, Xiaotian used Middle Grade Chaos Spirit Stones to power the Hanhai Boat, which, under the propulsion of the Middle Grade Chaos Spirit Stones, transformed into a streak of flowing light and sped toward the Primordial Continent at extreme speed.
Feeling the extreme speed of the Hanhai Boat, Duobao Venerable remarked, "The Hanhai Boat is truly worthy of being one of the top ten flying ships in the Divine Domain!"
While the Duobao Flying Ship in his possession was also one of Divine Domain’s top ten flying ships, it was still somewhat inferior to Yang Xiaotian’s Hanhai Boat.
"Your Duobao Flying Ship is also fast," Yang Xiaotian commented.
Duobao Venerable waved his hand and said, "My Duobao Flying Ship is faster than other ships, but it’s still much slower compared to the Hanhai Boat."
Then he said to Yang Xiaotian with a smile, "Young Mansion Master, you said last time that when you have time in the future, you would come to the Duobao Commerce Association to exchange knowledge on the Game of Go and Artifact Refining with me. The journey is long, so why not take this opportunity to indulge in a match of Go and Artifact Refining?"
Chen Keying also looked at Yang Xiaotian with shining eyes.
Yang Xiaotian said with a smile, "With the battle of Heavenly Dao Mountain imminent, I’d like to spend more time cultivating. After the battle of Heavenly Dao Mountain is over, I will come to you, Elder, to properly exchange knowledge on the Game of Go and Artifact Refining. What do you think?"
"Good, then let’s have a proper exchange after the battle of Heavenly Dao Mountain is over," Duobao Venerable replied with a smile.
So, Yang Xiaotian made a fist and palm salute and said, "Elder, Miss Chen, I shall go cultivate now." Having said that, he turned and entered the secret chamber of the flying ship, continuing to cultivate by consuming the four Divine Fruits.
Duobao Venerable saw his daughter staring at the silhouette of Yang Xiaotian and said with a laugh, "Such a promising young man—if I were a woman, I would also be moved."
Hearing her father’s teasing, Chen Keying protested, "Father, what are you saying?"
Duobao Venerable simply chuckled and turned into the secret chamber to continue his research on the Game of Go and Artifact Refining.
His only hobbies in life were the Game of Go and Artifact Refining.
This time Duobao Venerable brought quite a few people with him, a total of one hundred, but the Hanhai Boat had immense space with tens of thousands of rooms, more than enough to accommodate them all.
Thus, along the way, besides consuming Divine Fruits to cultivate, Yang Xiaotian was also contemplating the Life Arcane. Before long, he had cultivated 1,199,999 ultimate Life Arcane secrets.
However, Xiaotian stopped there.
Because cultivating to 1,200,000 would trigger the Heavenly Dao to descend with the force of Life Arcane, it was somewhat inconvenient for him on the flying ship.
Even powered by Middle Grade Chaos Spirit Stones, the flying ship took a month to reach the Primordial Continent.
After arriving at the Primordial Continent, Duobao Venerable took out the Origin Divine Pearl, and sensing the location of the Origin Palace, flew with Yang Xiaotian and the others deep into the Primordial Continent.
But as Yang Xiaotian advanced into the depths of the Primordial Continent, he always had an uneasy feeling, as if being watched by some terrifying creature.
However, when he unfolded his Soul Power, he did not detect anything abnormal.
