Chapter 1230: Chapter 1230: Is Yang Xiaotian Still in Sword Province?

The Sword Qi from the Sword Stele sought to repel Yang Xiaotian, but under the power of the Domain of the Fifteen Swords of Yang Xiaotian, the Heavenly Dao Sword Stele was soon pulled up by him.

Yang Xiaotian didn’t hesitate and put the Heavenly Dao Sword Stele into the Shennong Cauldron.

Moments later, he left with the others and continued to fly deeper into the Sword Province.

Of course, before leaving, he didn’t forget to take away the space divine artifacts of the Kirin Chamber of Commerce members.

This time, Yang Xiaotian found a five-thousand-million-year Divine Medicine and some high-grade Chaos Spirit Stones inside the space divine artifact of the president of the Kirin Chamber of Commerce.

Unfortunately, there were not many of these high-grade Chaos Spirit Stones, just tens of thousands.

Yang Xiaotian took the five-thousand-million-year Divine Medicine and tens of thousands of high-grade Chaos Spirit Stones; the rest were given to Sword Prison King Li Zhi and others to add to the treasure vault of the Yang Family Chamber of Commerce.

While Yang Xiaotian and the others were flying deeper into the Sword Province, Chen Heng was leading experts of the Kirin Clan at full speed toward the Sword Province.

However, upon rushing over, Chen Heng immediately received a message talisman from Chen Zhi.

“Yang Xiaotian, you dare to kill so many experts of my Kirin Chamber of Commerce, once I find you, I will cut you into ten thousand pieces!” Chen Heng roared hoarsely after reading Chen Zhi’s message talisman.

“Increase speed even more!”

He bellowed at his subordinates.

Yet, it wasn’t long before he received another message talisman from a branch president of the Kirin Chamber of Commerce.

Seeing the message talisman from the branch president of the Kirin Chamber of Commerce, Chen Heng’s eyes turned blood-red with fury, and he trembled with rage.

“Daring to rob my Chen Heng’s belongings! Seeking death, seeking death!”

“Instruct them, command all the Empire Armies around the Sword Province to rush to the Sword Province, to seal off the Sword Province entirely for me, they absolutely must not let Yang Xiaotian escape!”

“Have them wait for me to get there!”

Upon Chen Heng’s orders, it wasn’t long before Empire Armies, many of which were affiliated with the Kirin Clan, surged toward the Sword Province like a tide, completely besieging the Sword Province without leaving any gaps.

As the Empire Armies of the Kirin Clan sealed off the Sword Province, all the experts previously comprehending the Sword Dao in the Sword Province panicked and fled.

At this time, Yang Xiaotian was still searching for the Heavenly Dao Sword Stele in the deeper parts of the Sword Province.

The deeper they went into the Sword Province, the more restrictions they encountered, and the stronger they became.

Fortunately, Yang Xiaotian possessed The Ultimate Mystery Diagram which enabled him to avoid these restrictions; otherwise, even with the assistance of a few Poison Corpse Beasts, it would be impossible for Yang Xiaotian’s group to reach the deepest parts of the Sword Province.

The deepest parts of the Sword Province had few visitors but were abundant in treasures.

Yang Xiaotian’s group found many sword-related resources, but they had yet to discover a second Heavenly Dao Sword Stele.

Three days after Yang Xiaotian acquired the Heavenly Flame Divine Sword, he had already reached the region at the very depths of the Sword Province. However, the way forward was filled with Dao-Confirming strong experts’ restrictions, which even The Ultimate Mystery Diagram could not detect, thus Yang Xiaotian and his companions were unable to advance any further.

In the end, Yang Xiaotian had no choice but to stop in front of a lake.

Yang Xiaotian looked deeper into the Sword Province, feeling helpless.

He could sense that there surely were Heavenly Dao Sword Steles at the end of the Sword Province, but he was completely unable to reach the very end.

Not just him — even his third master, the Myriad Dao Sword Venerable, couldn’t manage to reach the very end of the Sword Province.

Back then, his third master, the Myriad Dao Sword Venerable, could only get this close.

“These restrictions in the Sword Province, they are all Sword Array restrictions. If you can cultivate the Defying Heaven Sword Body, the Primordial Sword Body, you would be able to sense these Sword Array restrictions and reach the end of the Sword Province,” Master Ding said to Yang Xiaotian.

“Primordial Sword Body!” Yang Xiaotian was astonished.

“Yes, the Primordial Sword Body is the strongest sword body in the Dao Domain; with it, you can sense any Sword Array restrictions.” Master Ding said.

Thus, Yang Xiaotian still needs to work hard to cultivate the Domain of the Fifteen Swords to Summit Mastery.

Since it was impossible to advance any further, Yang Xiaotian did not continue to force his way through. Instead, he found a valley nearby with his companions and began to cultivate there.

Yang Xiaotian first took out the Heavenly Flame Divine Sword and started to comprehend and integrate the Heavenly Dao Sword Qi within the sword.

The Heavenly Dao Sword Qi inside the Heavenly Flame Divine Sword was indeed powerful; with each comprehension and fusion, Yang Xiaotian could feel the strength of his Great Dragon Sword Domain visibly increasing.

While Yang Xiaotian was comprehending the Heavenly Flame Divine Sword and Heavenly Dao Sword Qi, Chen Heng also led the Kirin Clan’s experts to Sword Province.

“Is Yang Xiaotian still in Sword Province?” Upon arriving, Chen Heng immediately asked the Commander of the Empire Army.

“Reporting back to the Young Clan Leader, someone has seen Yang Xiaotian still in Sword Province,” his subordinate, the Commander of the Empire Army, quickly responded.

Hearing this, Chen Heng’s eyes were filled with intense killing intent: “All of the Empire Army, heed my order, step by step, advance deeper into Sword Province! Drag Yang Xiaotian out!”

That Commander of the Empire Army hesitated: “Advance step by step?!”

The Sword Province was filled with restrictions. If the Empire Army were to advance step by step, wouldn’t that mean sending them to their deaths?

He had not expected that in order to capture Yang Xiaotian, Chen Heng would actually be sending them all to their deaths!

“What?” Chen Heng looked at the Empire Army Commander, his eyes cold: “Did you not hear me clearly?”

The Sword Province was filled with restrictions, and he wanted to use these soldiers of the Empire Army to probe out the restrictions, then avoid them.

“I heard clearly,” the Empire Army Commander said with a quivering voice, then ordered all of the Empire Army to advance step by step into Sword Province.

Upon hearing the Commander’s orders, all the major generals of the Empire Army had ashen faces.

However, no one dared to defy Chen Heng’s command. They could only steel themselves and lead the army deeper into Sword Province step by step.

As soon as these Empire Army soldiers surged into Sword Province, screams echoed; one of their units had set off a Sword Array restriction and was blasted away by the Sword Qi.

Not just that unit, but also the surrounding soldiers were pierced through by the Sword Qi.

When these soldiers’ bodies hit the ground, they were full of sword holes.

Seeing the bodies of these tens of thousands of soldiers, all with sword holes, many of the remaining Empire Army soldiers turned pale with fear.

But no one dared to flee.

The remaining army still hardheadedly continued to step deeper into Sword Province.

Screams occurred intermittently.

With each scream, a whole troop of soldiers were blown away.

Chen Heng, however, wore a cold expression and commanded sharply: “All troops heed the order, speed up the pace. Anyone who dares to dawdle will be executed on the spot!”

Under Chen Heng’s order, the Empire Army quickened their advancement.

As the Empire Army pushed forward, Chen Heng and his men eventually reached the mountain peak where Yang Xiaotian and others had found the Heavenly Flame Divine Sword.

Upon reaching the mountain peak, they saw the body of Chen Zhi still lying there.

Chen Heng, looking at the sword hole in Chen Zhi’s pierced throat, clenched his fists tightly, then ordered the Empire Army to continue advancing.

In this way, Chen Heng and his men kept closing in on Yang Xiaotian and his group.

However, the deeper they went into Sword Province, the stronger and more numerous the restrictions became, and the intermittent screams of the Empire Army’s soldiers fell, one batch after another. Even many experts of the Kirin Clan frowned at this sight.
