Chapter 289: Chapter 289: The Treasure of Thousand Buddha Medicine God

While Yang Xiaotian was cultivating the Primordial Dragon Art, attempting to achieve the True Dragon Power of ten thousand dragons, Li Yutian, Long Batian, and four others were gathered at Medicine King Peak, discussing the events of today’s stele test.

“I didn’t expect Yang Xiaotian’s talent to be so terrifying!” Little Medicine King Li Yutian said with a heavy voice, still shaken by the scene at the stele test earlier today.

Long Batian also had mixed feelings as he spoke, “He Zhen had people spread rumors deliberately, saying that Yang Xiaotian’s talent was six thousand. I thought it was just a rumor, but I didn’t expect Yang Xiaotian’s talent to be so formidable!”

Shi Huang’s face was somber, “What do you think Yang Xiaotian’s real talent is?”

Today, Yang Xiaotian easily struck a blow of seven thousand three hundred twenty-one!

This was truly a shock for the ages!

But all of them knew that this was not Yang Xiaotian’s true talent.

Yang Xiaotian’s real talent must be higher than seven thousand three hundred twenty-one.

Li Yutian, Long Batian, and Phoenix Lady fell silent for a moment, none daring to speak.

“Yang Xiaotian’s real talent must be around eight thousand,” said the Phoenix Lady after a while, her voice grave.

Eight thousand!

Everyone trembled inwardly at the thought.

After a long while.

“If Yang Xiaotian helps us open the door to the Thousand Buddha Medicine God’s treasure, should we still make our move?” Shi Huang eventually broke the silence.

Little Medicine King Li Yutian swept his gaze over the others, “The Thousand Buddha Medicine God’s treasure is incredible, with countless elixirs inside; there might even be Divine Level elixirs. Do you really want to share these elixirs with Yang Xiaotian?”

Long Batian’s eyes were filled with resolve, “Indeed, Yang Xiaotian must die!” he then said, “When the time comes, I will make the move.”

The next day.

The sun shone brightly.

A few people met with Yang Xiaotian at the agreed-upon location, and then the five of them left the Celestial Burial Academy, heading for the Evil Land.

To expedite their travel, Long Batian took out the flying ship of the Long Family, and everyone boarded together.

They hurried along their way.

Seven days later, they finally arrived at the Evil Land.

Upon entering the Evil Land, they continued to pilot the flying ship toward the location of the Thousand Buddha Medicine God’s treasure.

Yang Xiaotian stood at the bow of the flying ship, looking down at the Evil Land below.

It was a sight where not a blade of grass grew, and even trees were rare to see. Even if there were any, they were completely barren, devoid of a single green leaf on their branches. The entire Evil Land was utterly lifeless, suffused with an air of death, and everywhere were mires.

An offensive stench even pervaded the entire space.

This stench came from various corpses.

All over the Evil Land, one could see bones scattered about.

Some were human bones, others were the bones of various fierce beasts.

The living conditions in the Evil Land were exceedingly harsh, but it was also a place where bandits and villains hid.

Therefore, descendants of noble families rarely entered the Evil Land.

Many bandits and villains, upon seeing Yang Xiaotian and the others entering the Evil Land on a flying ship, initially had thoughts of robbery and murder. But, upon recognizing it as the Long Family’s ship, they were frightened and dared not attack.

Even the Eastern Desolate’s Mu Family, which could rank within the top ten of the Buddha Source Empire, was still a notch below the Long Family of Zhongzhou.

Even the Buddha Source Imperial Family treated the Long Family of Zhongzhou with caution.

Thus, the group traveled safely and without incident until they neared the treasure of the Thousand Buddha Medicine God.

“It’s just ahead,” Little Medicine King Li Yutian pointed ahead.

Ahead of them was an area shrouded in darkness, with a faint black mist filling the space between heaven and earth.

Even though it was daytime, no sunlight could be seen here, and everyone felt as if they had entered a Dark World.

“This is Blackglow Ice Energy,” Li Yutian said to Yang Xiaotian. “Continue forward for another three to four miles, and we’ll reach the Thousand Buddha Medicine God’s treasure.”

Several people drove the flying ship forward slowly.

After entering the world shrouded in Blackglow Ice Energy, they could hardly see their fingers in front of them.

Li Yutian and the others were well-prepared and took out two flame pearls.

These flame pearls were the eyes of the Ancient Mythical Beast Flame Beast.

With the flame pearls, the surrounding Blackglow Ice Energy dissipated quite a bit.

However, as they approached the Thousand Buddha Medicine God’s treasure, the Blackglow Ice Energy grew denser, and the light from the flame pearls was continuously compressed, becoming dimmer and dimmer, almost completely dark.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaotian summoned the Flame of Stars.

Instantly, the Blackglow Ice Energy within a hundred meters around them scattered.

Long Batian, upon seeing this, exclaimed in admiration, “Brother Yang’s Flame of Stars is truly deserving of its place among the top hundred Abnormal Fires.”

Li Yutian, watching the Flame of Stars around Yang Xiaotian, had a flash of greed in his eyes.

The top ten Abnormal Fires were hard to tame, but for the top hundred, he still had a sliver of confidence. If Yang Xiaotian were to die, then the Flame of Stars would be his.

With the addition of the Flame of Stars, his Alchemy Level was sure to advance further, and the Elixirs he refined in the future would undoubtedly be of even purer quality.

Reinforced by the power of the Flame of Stars, the flying ship traveled smoothly, and soon, the Thousand Buddha Medicine God’s cave dwelling appeared in the distance.

However, the entire Thousand Buddha Medicine God’s cave dwelling was enveloped in black Blackglow Ice mist, and only the vague outline of the cave was visible.

Arriving in front of the Medicine God’s cave dwelling, even the Flame of Stars could not dispel the Blackglow Ice mist outside the cave, because it was too thick, almost solid.

Looking at the Medicine God’s cave dwelling completely covered in Blackglow Ice mist, Yang Xiaotian frowned, no wonder Long Batian and the others said they couldn’t break open the gate of the cave dwelling.

The Blackglow Ice mist alone in front of the cave’s gate was too thick to dissipate, not to mention the gate itself made from Blackglow Ice.

Yang Xiaotian summoned the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame and stepped forward.

Under the power of the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame, the ice mist in front of the cave’s gate was gradually incinerated and cleared away.

The group saw the gate of the cave dwelling.

The entire gate shimmered with an astonishing dark light, with black ice energy surging out. Even the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame could only burn the black ice energy, unable to melt the gate.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaotian had no choice but to call forth the Earth Flame.

Under the fiery power of the Earth Flame, finally, streaks of steam appeared on the gate, as the gate’s Blackglow Ice was continuously incinerated to produce the steam.

Long Batian and the others, seeing this, were overjoyed, their hanging hearts finally relaxing.

Soon, half an hour passed.

The originally one-meter-thick gate, under the burning of the Earth Flame, melted away until only half an inch remained, thin as a black mirror, through which they could even see the objects inside the cave dwelling.

Upon seeing this, Long Batian’s eyes filled with murderous intent, his hands storing power quietly. As soon as the gate was completely melted, he was ready to make his move.

Time, slowly passed.

Steam rose from the gate.

Finally, the entire gate dissolved into a pool of black water.

Just as Long Batian was about to launch a punch at the back of Yang Xiaotian, Shi Huang suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Long Batian, then shook his head.

Long Batian looked puzzled.

“We might still need Yang Xiaotian’s Earth Flame later. Let’s get the Elixirs inside first before killing him; there’s no rush,” Shi Huang transmitted his voice to the others.

After a brief contemplation, Long Batian and the other two nodded, agreeing to Shi Huang’s suggestion.

“Brother Yang, let’s now search for the Medicine God’s treasure and see if there are any Elixirs, then we can divide them equally,” Li Yutian approached and said to Yang Xiaotian with a smile.

Thus, the group entered the cave dwelling.

However, Li Yutian and the others did not notice that when they entered the cave dwelling, a dark shadow floated in and followed them into the cave.
