Chapter 384: Chapter 384: Undefeated Nether God?

Within the tomb, an ancient coffin was laid out.

The mighty sword force emanated from within the coffin.

Xiaotian came to the front of the coffin, pushed with both hands, and the heavy lid moved slowly open like a mountain being shifted.

When the lid was completely opened, Xiaotian looked inside and saw a young man with an outstanding demeanor lying there, dressed in the robes of an emperor, exuding the air of nobility. Even after many years in death, he still commanded awe.

Beside the young man, a completely dark sword was placed, from the blade to the scabbard, to the hilt, utterly dark. This darkness was unlike any ordinary darkness, which is simply devoid of light, this sword’s darkness carried a chilling force.

This darkness was of an ultimate kind.

It was the Eternal Night Sword.

Looking at the Eternal Night Sword before him, Xiaotian felt a surge of elation, reached out to grasp it, intending to lift it.

But to his astonishment, the Eternal Night Sword didn’t budge at all.

Xiaotian channeled his True Yuan with all his might, his body bursting with radiant light, but still couldn’t lift it, which left him bewildered. He looked towards the young man.

If he wasn’t mistaken, this young man must be the Eternal Night Divine Emperor.

Clearly, the Eternal Night Sword desired to stay forever by the side of the Eternal Night Divine Emperor.

Seeing this, Xiaotian spoke, “Rest assured, if you follow me, I will treat you just as well as the Eternal Night Divine Emperor did.” With these words, the power of his thirteen Sword Hearts surged and enveloped the Eternal Night Sword.

Under the influence of the thirteen Sword Hearts’ power, the Eternal Night Sword, which had remained still and unaffected, burst forth with a strong dark radiance.

The entire tomb was engulfed by the dark glow.

All things within the tomb lost their light.

The only thing not affected by the dark glow was Xiaotian’s thirteen Sword Hearts.

Xiaotian reached out to grasp and once again attempted to lift the Eternal Night Sword.

This time, the Eternal Night Sword did not resist, and Xiaotian easily picked it up.

Looking at the Eternal Night Sword, Xiaotian grew fonder of it the more he looked.

Legend had it that the Eternal Night Divine Emperor, wielding the Eternal Night Sword, could with a single slash plunge a radius of ten thousand miles into eternal night. Every person, every creature, everything would be covered by the Eternal Night, and even Abnormal Fire had to extinguish under its veil.

The power of the Eternal Night Sword was evident.

Right away, Xiaotian began to refine the Eternal Night Sword.

Under the prompt of the thirteen Sword Hearts’ power, he quickly refined the Eternal Night Sword.

He put away the Eternal Night Sword and then found a Swordsmanship Manual within the coffin—the Eternal Night Sword Technique. After giving it a cursory glance and storing it carefully, he bowed deeply to the Eternal Night Divine Emperor. Then, he replaced the coffin’s lid and left the tomb.

Just as Xiaotian emerged from the tomb and was about to leave the Death Sword Tomb, suddenly, a mysterious voice from the deepest part of the tomb resonated.

This voice, penetrating everything, sought to drill into the deepest parts of Xiaotian’s soul when suddenly a beam of light from the Cauldron Medicine shone, enveloping Xiaotian, successfully sealing off the voice.

“What is this?” Xiaotian wondered in shock.

“It’s a mind-controlling sound!” Master Ding said, “A kind of sound that controls the soul. Once controlled by this sound, one would totally lose oneself, more troublesome than the illusions you experienced before.”

Then he said in a grave tone, “The one casting this mind-controlling sound is very powerful! Even Divine Spirits have difficulty resisting.”

“Even Divine Spirits have difficulty resisting?” Seeing Master Ding’s serious expression, Xiaotian asked, “How does it compare to the Undying Death God?”

“Hard to say!” Master Ding pondered.

Xiaotian was shocked.

At the deepest part of the Death Sword Tomb, there was an entity of such terrifying presence.

Who is this person?

All the experts who had entered the Death Sword Tomb before had gone missing, could it be related to this person?

“Shall we go in and take a look?” Master Ding said.

Yang Xiaotian pondered for a moment, then shook his head; better not meddle in more affairs than necessary. Although he still had quite a bit of Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water, he needed to save it for cultivating his vitality and dealing with the Undying Death God.

So, Yang Xiaotian hurriedly flew out of the Sword Tomb.

The voice followed him like a bone-burrowing maggot, ceaselessly trying to drill deeper into Xiaotian’s soul.

However, with Master Ding’s light shield for defense, Xiaotian managed to exit the Sword Tomb safely and without incident.

The Demon Ape and a few others, who had been anxiously waiting outside the Sword Tomb, were overjoyed to see Xiaotian emerge and approached him eagerly.

“Young master, are you alright?” the Demon Ape inquired.

“I’m fine,” Yang Xiaotian replied with a shake of his head and a smile. “I found what we were looking for; let’s leave this place.” The Death Sword Tomb was too sinister; it would be wise to leave early.

Thereupon, he led the Demon Ape and others as they broke through the sky and departed.

After getting a good distance away, Yang Xiaotian began to tell his companions about the events he had encountered in the Death Sword Tomb over the past few days.

When Xiaotian mentioned that there was a terrifying entity within the Sword Tomb, one not weaker than the Undying Death God, the Demon Ape and the others were shocked.

“Could it be the Undefeated Underworld God?” the Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor asked with alarm.

In the past, the Lord of Azure God had two great adversaries; one was the Undefeated Underworld God, the other was the Undying Death God.

Some even said that the Undefeated Underworld God was the Lord of Azure God’s most formidable enemy.

The Undefeated Underworld God could control all the Yin Souls and Yin Ghosts in the world; his command over them was so vast that they were innumerable and indestructible.

The Undefeated Underworld God could even refrain from acting personally; just the billions of Yin Souls and Yin Ghosts under his command were enough to annihilate everything in the world.

“It shouldn’t be the Undefeated Underworld God!” the Iceflame Kylin expressed doubt. “Back then, the Lord of Azure God beheaded him and sealed his head and body in different places.”

The rest were also in disbelief; if it was not the Undefeated Underworld God, who could it be?

Yang Xiaotian felt quite heavy-hearted.

No matter whether the person was the Undefeated Underworld God or not, it wasn’t good news; it seemed all the experts who entered the Death Sword Tomb had likely been killed by them.

This person was clearly no righteous figure; should they emerge, it was feared that the Azure God Continent would be plunged into another bloody turmoil.

He still needed to work hard to enhance his strength. Although he was already much stronger than his peers, he was still too weak compared to Divine Spirit Realm masters.

The Abyssal Spaceship traveled through the layers of space, heading towards the Azure God Academy.

Inside the secluded chamber of the spaceship, Yang Xiaotian practiced the Eternal Night Sword Technique during the day and at night, he ingested Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water and Life Essence Fluid to cultivate.

Finally, upon reaching the Myriad Gods Empire, his vitality broke through to a range of ten thousand miles!

Of course, his strength had already broken through to the Martial Emperor’s tenth layer peak, and he could breakthrough to the realm of Martial Venerable at any moment.

Martial Emperors typically had a lifespan of two hundred years, but once they broke through to the realm of Martial Venerable, their lifespan would significantly increase, generally extending to five hundred years.

If their vitality was powerful, some Martial Venerables could even reach a lifespan of six hundred, seven hundred years; the limit for a Martial Venerable’s lifespan was a thousand years, although reaching a thousand years was nearly impossible for most Martial Venerables.

Nevertheless, upon entering the Myriad Gods Empire, Yang Xiaotian was not in a rush to head to the Azure God Academy; instead, he found a place where he could first have a breakthrough into the realm of Martial Venerable.

After all, he needed to reach the realm of Martial Venerable to take part in the Azure God Academy’s examination.
