Chapter 1754: Chapter 1754: Ghost Dragon Tomb, Second Layer
“Yes,” Zuo Meng hastily replied, “Not only are we auctioning two volumes of Sword Path Defying Heaven Top Tier Holy Technique Secret Manual, but also a pile of Dao Holy Flame.”
“And two hundred jars of Buddha’s Holy Water.”
Yang Xiaotian was delighted upon hearing this.
If he had enough Dao Holy Flame, once fused, one of his Chaos Divine Flames could transform into Chaos Holy Fire, allowing him to refine the Eight Tribulation Heavenly Grade Holy Pill.
Moreover, he urgently needed to enhance his strength.
If he had two hundred jars of Buddha’s Holy Water, he could ripen one Posuo Buddha Fruit.
“When is the auction held?” Yang Xiaotian asked.
“In four months,” Zuo Meng answered.
“But, Young Master, the headquarters of Nine Sha Hall is located in the Star Robe Empire,” Li Gu said.
With Nine Sha Hall’s headquarters in the Star Robe Empire, their people are certain to attend the auction.
“Recently, Nine Sha Hall’s people have been inquiring about your whereabouts, Young Master. They likely suspect your involvement in the Silver Demon Ridge incident,” Li Gu said worriedly.
If Yang Xiaotian were in the Profound Thunder Empire’s Heavenly Fire Kingdom, Nine Sha Hall might hesitate. But if he appeared in the Star Robe Empire, they’d certainly act.
The Star Robe Empire is Nine Sha Hall’s territory.
“It’s fine,” Yang Xiaotian waved his hand, saying, “Any news on the Reversal Roulette?”
Among the Thirteen Holy Bodies, the Reversing Holy Body he just cultivated progressed the slowest.
After years of cultivation, he only broke through to the Second Layer.
But the Holy Realm has an unparalleled Kaitian Sacred Artifact known as the Reversal Roulette.
If he could find this Reversal Roulette, he could use its power to enhance his cultivation speed of the Reversing Holy Body.
“Reversal Roulette, no news yet,” Zuo Meng and Li Gu shook their heads.
A moment later, the two withdrew.
“Young Master, Nine Sha Hall’s spies are outside. Should we?” Old Lu made a slashing gesture.
Since they returned from the Sea of Black Ants, Nine Sha Hall’s spies had been surrounding the residence.
“Leave one, kill the rest,” Yang Xiaotian said.
Old Lu understood Yang Xiaotian’s intent.
Moments later, once Old Lu handled the Nine Sha Hall spies, Yang Xiaotian set off with Old Lu to the Ghost Dragon Tomb in the Sword Tomb Empire.
He had long wanted to open the second layer of the Ghost Dragon Tomb.
The Three-Colored Dragon and Bright White Tiger had been consuming Yang Xiaotian’s elixir for training and had broken through the Great Saint Realm, greatly increasing the carriage’s speed as they quickly flew towards the Ghost Dragon Tomb.
Yet, despite the Three-Colored Dragon and Bright White Tiger breaking through the Great Saint Realm, the carriage’s speed was still too slow for Yang Xiaotian now.
He realized he needed to find and tame a new batch of Mount Beasts. Yang Xiaotian mused.
However, given his rapid cultivation speed, even if he tamed a new batch of Mount Beasts, he’d have to replace them again in decades, which was troublesome.
Yang Xiaotian considered wanting to refine the Tribulation Dragon Flying Ship again, but the amount of Dragon Tribe Divine Iron needed was enormous and hard to collect quickly.
Yang Xiaotian asked Old Lu if there was a way to get an advanced flying ship.
“An advanced flying ship?” Old Lu pondered for a while and said, “In the past, Emperor Kaiyuan had a ship called Light of Kaiyuan, but it disappeared when Emperor Kaiyuan passed.”
“But some say Light of Kaiyuan is within the Kaiyuan Empire’s treasure. If found, Light of Kaiyuan could be acquired!”
Old Lu knew their Young Master had been painstakingly cultivating the Chaos Five Elements Escaping Technique these days, hoping to explore under the ruins of the Imperial Capital in Kaiyuan Empire.
“Light of Kaiyuan,” Yang Xiaotian said.
“Light of Kaiyuan, meaning the hope of the Kaiyuan Empire, hoped by Emperor Kaiyuan to be passed down for generations, but unexpectedly it was only passed down for two generations.” Old Lu shook his head.
Emperor Kaiyuan passed the throne to his son, yet the Kaiyuan Empire fell within a century.
Even Emperor Kaiyuan perished.
There are many records about the fall of the Kaiyuan Empire and the demise of Emperor Kaiyuan.
However, some records might be inaccurate.
“Does Master Ding know about the Kaiyuan Empire?” Yang Xiaotian inquired.
He was quite curious about the Kaiyuan Empire, which unified the Three Pure Continents before the White Night Demon Clan.
“I know a little, but not much,” Master Ding said, “Light of Kaiyuan should still be somewhere on the Three Pure Continents.”
“As to whether it’s within the Kaiyuan Empire’s treasure, it’s unknown to me.”
On the way, Yang Xiaotian diligently practiced the Chaos Five Elements Escaping Technique.
Whether he could explore the treasure beneath the ruins of the Imperial Capital of the Kaiyuan Empire depended on this Chaos Five Elements Escaping Technique.
Rushing along, Yang Xiaotian and his companions returned to the Ghost Dragon Tomb region once more.
Yang Xiaotian activated the power of the Primordial Dragon Holy Body.
Under the power of the Primordial Dragon Holy Body, all the restrictions of the Ghost Dragon Clan surfaced.
The last time Yang Xiaotian came, the Primordial Dragon Divine Body hadn’t been cultivated into a Sacred Body. This time, not only had he cultivated into the Primordial Dragon Holy Body but also broke through to the Saint Realm, making re-entering the Ghost Dragon Tomb easier.
Yang Xiaotian unfolded his Sixteen Wings of Bright, the Power of Bright surging like a sea, keeping all ghostly creatures at bay.
Arriving once again before the Ghost Dragon Tomb, Yang Xiaotian easily opened the first layer of the tomb and moved to the second gate, beginning to study and crack the Ghost Dragon Runes on the gate.
The Ghost Dragon Runes on the second gate were several times more complex than those on the first.
Yet, after an hour of research, Yang Xiaotian used the power of the Primordial Dragon Holy Body to unlock the Ghost Dragon Rune restrictions on the second gate, entering the second hall of the Ghost Dragon Tomb.
The second hall, like the first, was desolate, with only a statue of a Fierce Beast.
This Fierce Beast statue was of an Ancient Dark System Fierce Beast.
Yang Xiaotian began studying the formation mechanisms of this Fierce Beast.
Soon, Yang Xiaotian cracked the formation mechanism.
Took the Space Divine Artifact from the second layer.
Once obtained, Yang Xiaotian eagerly opened it.
Immediately, a surge of Holy Spirit Aura flowed out.
Looking inside, Yang Xiaotian saw an abundance of Tenth Layer Dao Holy Water, a large number of Lower Grade Dao Holy Stone.
The Dao Holy Water numbered ten thousand!
The Lower Grade Dao Holy Stone totaled ten billion!
In addition, there were four Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicines!
Amid joy, Yang Xiaotian was surprised, marveling at the wealth of the Ghost Dragon Clan?
The second layer alone had ten billion Lower Grade Dao Holy Water, ten thousand jars of Dao Holy Water! It’s worth noting that not many superpowers in the Profound Thunder Empire or Star Robe Empire could afford ten billion Lower Grade Dao Holy Stones.
Originally, Yang Xiaotian worried about not having enough funds for the upcoming auction at the Star Robe Empire’s Star Auction in a few months. With these ten billion, there was no need to worry about insufficient funds.
Inside the Space Divine Artifact was a book, which Yang Xiaotian glanced through briefly, though it wasn’t a Sword Path Defying Heaven Top Tier Holy Technique Secret Manual.
Yang Xiaotian arrived before the third layer’s gate, trying to crack the Ghost Dragon Runes on the gate but failed.
Master Ding advised him to break through to the Saint Tenth Layer and Crossover the Primordial Dragon Holy Body to the Twenty-Eight Layer before attempting again.
