Chapter 403: Chapter 403: Divine Yang with 3000 Emperors

Yang Xiaotian emerged from the Sword Pavilion and saw that dusk had fallen; he could only wait to continue his search after returning from the trial.

As long as the Divine Shadow Sword was in Azure God Academy, he would find it sooner or later.

With the trial on the morrow, Yang Xiaotian returned to the Divine Residence once more to inform the Demon Ape and others that he would be away for a few days and to instruct everyone to train diligently, staying prepared to face the Undying Wraiths and Yin Ghosts at any moment.

Learning that countless Yin Souls had appeared near the Death Sword Tomb, the expressions on the faces of the Demon Ape and his companions grew grave.

“Young Master, let me accompany you tomorrow,” the Demon Ape said to Yang Xiaotian.

After all, Yang Xiaotian would be confronting countless Yin Ghosts and Souls in this trial, a perilous endeavor.

Old Bing, Old Meng, Old Mo, and Man Fang also expressed their desire to accompany Yang Xiaotian.

Yang Xiaotian shook his head, “I’ll be joining the disciples of Azure God Academy for this trial; it wouldn’t be convenient for you to come along. Moreover, Dean Chen Jing, Li Bi, and others will be there. With them around, there shouldn’t be any danger.”

Yang Xiaotian said to Man Fang, “When the Dwarf Clan arrives, have them forge more divine weapons and armor and concoct more elixirs, especially healing ones, in abundance.”

If the Azure God Continent were to descend into chaos, both divine weapons and elixirs would become scarce; thus, they needed to prepare an ample supply of both.

Although the Azure Bear and Azure God Mansion provided stability, preventing the continent from slipping into chaos, no one could guarantee peace, so he had to prepare for the worst.

“Rest assured, Young Master,” Man Fang said respectfully, aware of the severity of the situation.

“Old Ape, during these days, try to negotiate with the surrounding mansions and see if they can be purchased as well,” Yang Xiaotian said, “Price is not an issue.”

In the future, he intended to consolidate all his forces in the Myriad Gods Imperial City.

The Divine Residence, despite its size, was still not enough.

The Demon Ape understood Yang Xiaotian’s intention and nodded, “Don’t worry, Young Master. When you return from your trial, I will have bought the entire Myriad Gods Imperial City!”

He thumped his chest resoundingly.

Yang Xiaotian was speechless.

What did he want with the entire imperial city? He had no desire to sit on the throne of the Myriad Gods Empire.

Then, the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor reported to Yang Xiaotian, “Young Master, we’ve found out when the Sea of Stars will recede. It will be in three months’ time.”

He hesitated before adding, “It’s just strange that many masters from the Demon Sect have also been inquiring about the day the Sea of Stars will recede.”

Yang Xiaotian was taken aback.

Many masters from the Demon Sect were also inquiring about the day of the Sea of Stars’ recession?

Could it be that the masters from the Demon Sect also wanted to enter the Sea of Stars in search of something?

“Find out why the masters from the Demon Sect want to enter the Sea of Stars,” Yang Xiaotian mused.

The Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor respectfully acknowledged the order.

When Yang Xiaotian left the mansion, it was already deep into the night.

Yet, the streets of the Imperial Capital were filled with patrolling soldiers.

Clearly, the emergence of countless Yin Souls and Ghosts near the Death Sword Tomb had put even the Myriad Gods Empire on alert.

If the Myriad Gods Empire was this tense, one could only imagine the state of the other empires.

First there was the emergence of the Undying Death God, now the Nether Sect was causing trouble; Yang Xiaotian felt like a storm was brewing.

The Azure God Continent was headed for chaos!

Thinking of his current strength, Yang Xiaotian felt helpless.

If the Azure God Continent were thrown into turmoil, his power was still far from enough to cope with the troubled times.

He still needed to increase his strength frenetically.

Returning to Azure God Academy, Yang Xiaotian pondered for a while, went to the Medicine Hall to buy a large quantity of medicinal materials, and then concocted a batch of high-grade Nine Turns Return to Origin Pills.

After all these efforts, Yang Xiaotian finally consumed the Sixth Layer Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water and Life Essence Fluid to cultivate the Primordial Dragon Art.

With only a little of the Nine Layers Tribulation Thunder Water left, he dared not use it anymore.

He was reserving the remaining Tribulation Thunder Water for life-saving purposes.

He cultivated throughout the night.

The sun was just rising.

Yang Xiaotian flew towards the gathering square.

By this time, the square had already amassed a great number of academy disciples.

This trial wasn’t just for the new disciples, all the disciples of the academy were to go.

“Emperor Sanqian Divine Yang!”

“Divine Yang has arrived!”

Just as Yang Xiaotian was flying towards the square, a disciple suddenly shouted out.

All eyes turned towards Yang Xiaotian.

Princess Jiuhu Bai Li, Princess Myriad Gods Wan Ning, Zeng Qianqian, and Donghuang Xiu, all four beauties, looked over at Yang Xiaotian.

Bai Li had met Yang Xiaotian before, but Wan Ning, Zeng Qianqian, and Donghuang Xiu had not yet met him.

Since the new disciples’ competition, the name of Emperor Sanqian Divine Yang had soared high like the sun at noon, and his fame had completely overshadowed the four beauties and even the Four Swords.

In the past few days, almost everywhere, people were talking about Yang Xiaotian, even the servants in their mansions were discussing him, and Wan Ning, Zeng Qianqian, Donghuang Xiu had heard so much they could feel calluses forming on their ears.

Yang Xiaotian was portrayed as something supernatural, with tales of how he fought Emperor Sanqian single-handedly, how he pushed against thirteen continents with both palms, how he was the world’s number one swordsman, and there were even rumors of him being the most handsome man.

Under the gaze of Wan Ning, Zeng Qianqian, and Donghuang Xiu, Yang Xiaotian, wearing a blue robe handcrafted by his mother, walked on air towards them, his body draped with the newly risen sunlight, his feet stepping on Earth Flame, looking like a divine being descending from the heavens.

Elegant in this troubled world, yet dominating over all.

The sight quickened the heartbeat of many female students in the academy.

Even Wan Ning, Zeng Qianqian, and Donghuang Xiu had their beautiful eyes gleam with fascination.

Lin Mei’er’s heart was beating uncontrollably.

“Earth Flame!”

Seeing Yang Xiaotian stepping on Earth Flame, many disciples exclaimed in astonishment.

Wan Ning, Zeng Qianqian, and Donghuang Xiu evidently had not expected Yang Xiaotian to have tamed Earth Flame, the world’s number one Abnormal Fire.

“Emperor Sanqian has even subdued the Earth Flame! Worthy of the title Emperor Sanqian! I wonder what his alchemy level is like?”

“It’s said that the Buddha Son Tang Huan is the number one alchemist of the Buddha Source Empire, I wonder how Emperor Sanqian compares with him.”

Many disciples present whispered amongst themselves.

Buddha Son Tang Huan twitched at the discussions, his face contorting.

He sighed to the sky.

Having Yang, why have Tang!

Among the disciples, Xie Buhui of the Four Swords watched Yang Xiaotian, who was the center of everyone’s attention, with a cold glint in his eye.

Xiao Han of the Four Swords, also looked at Yang Xiaotian and frowned slightly.

Right now, Yang Xiaotian was admired by the disciples of the Azure God Academy, but not all the disciples admired and liked Yang Xiaotian.

For instance, Xie Buhui and Xiao Han felt displeased at the sight of Yang Xiaotian.

Under everyone’s gaze, Yang Xiaotian arrived at the scene, and the Earth Flame automatically retracted.

Seeing Yang Xiaotian coming, Lin Mei’er with a somewhat reddened pretty face approached him, “Young Master Yang, you’ve arrived.”

“Miss Lin,” Yang Xiaotian nodded and smiled at Lin Mei’er.

Just as Heavenly Dragon Buddha Maiden Yao Qingxue was about to approach, Princess Jiuhu Bai Li came to Yang Xiaotian, bowed slightly, and said, “Young Master Yang, I was abrupt the last time, I apologize to you, and I hope Young Master Yang won’t hold it against me.”

Yang Xiaotian shook his head with a smile, “Miss Bai is being too formal, it was but a trifle.”

Subsequently, Yao Qingxue and Tian Wanqing also came over to greet Yang Xiaotian.

Seeing Yang Xiaotian surrounded by Lin Mei’er, Bai Li, Yao Qingxue, and Tian Wanqing, the four great beauties, all the male disciples envied him, and it was no pretense.

However, Princess Myriad Gods Wan Ning looked at Yang Xiaotian with suspicion, feeling as though she had seen him somewhere before, but she couldn’t remember at that moment.
