Chapter 721 720: Immortal Cultivators Delivered to the Door

"Are you saying that Immortal Daoists have appeared on the Star God Continent?"

Yang Xiao's expression was a little strange.

"That's right. These Immortal Cultivators are very strange. I'm afraid they're planning to invade our Star God Continent."

Nangong Tianling looked grave and extremely worried.

But when Yang Xiao heard this,

a thrill of joy surged deep within him.

'Immortal Cultivators… Their timing couldn't be better!'

This might be a great disaster for Nangong Tianling.

But for Yang Xiao,

it was a massive opportunity.

'After killing Qin Tianlong and his four companions, my Physical Strength more than doubled. If I can get my hands on some more high-quality Immortal Dao Wills, then for me…'

At this thought, joy was written all over Yang Xiao's face.

'What's going on? Why does the Young Master look so happy?'

His reaction, however, left Nangong Tianling slightly stunned.

These past few days, the appearance of the Immortal Daoists had left her completely overwhelmed, especially since she discovered that among them were some terrifyingly powerful experts.

She feared they had already surpassed the level of a Tier Four True Immortal.

With the combined strength of the Star God Continent and Star God Academy,

they could, at best, contend with a Tier Three True God.

Now, Golden Immortal experts comparable to Tier Four True Gods had appeared, and it seemed there was more than one.

Nangong Tianling was naturally so worried her hair was turning white.

One had to understand,

the Star Emperor was one of the few beings in the world who had openly fallen out with the Immortal Realm. Although the battles between the higher-ups were still restrained,

they hadn't escalated into a full-scale war.

But the insignificant Star God Continent…

…wouldn't amount to much even if it were invaded and occupied.

Therefore,

Nangong Tianling was deeply troubled.

And just then,

Yang Xiao spoke.

"Tell me where they are, and I'll kill them all! You should know I have the Divine General Talisman. I can do it."

Yang Xiao said with anticipation and resolve.

Previously, he had killed the four Immortal Daoists summoned by Qin Tianlong, and Qin Tianlong himself. The five Immortal Dao Wills had more than doubled his Physical Strength in an instant.

It had skyrocketed from the power of five hundred Flood Dragons to twelve hundred Flood Dragons.

With this immense strength,

Yang Xiao had been able to send Guao Han, a genius from the Hidden Dragon List, flying with just his Physical Strength.

Otherwise,

Yang Xiao probably would have had to use the Divine General Talisman from the very beginning.

Of course,

this was only possible for Yang Xiao.

Anyone else, even with the Physical Strength of twelve hundred Flood Dragons, would probably be unable to achieve this.

After all, that guy was an existence comparable to a Tier Three True God.

The power of a mere twelve hundred Flood Dragons is only equivalent to the Great Divine Power Realm First Layer. For anyone else, with this little power, forget about sending Guao Han flying—

they would have trouble even getting close to him.

However, Yang Xiao cultivated the Emperor Golden Dragon Secret Technique, which allowed him to condense his Physical Strength and the qi in his body into a Great Dragon, increasing its might by several dozen times.

Combined with the element of surprise and some other offensive techniques,

the outcome was completely different.

Especially at that moment, seeing that Yang Xiao's aura hadn't stirred,

Guao Han had let his guard down completely, giving Yang Xiao the opportunity to strike.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible.

This was also why Yang Xiao later used the Divine General Talisman and the Star-Picking Hand when he was killing people.

If he had relied only on his Physical Strength, he would have barely been able to break through Guao Han's defenses.

But if it were to be enhanced further, things would be different.

'My strength has hit a bottleneck. Although there's still room for improvement with the Great Star Dominating Body and the Star-Picking Hand, the real key to increasing my combat power isn't them—it's my Physical Strength. And my Physical Strength can be increased without limit. If I can kill several hundred, or even a thousand, Immortal Marquises and Immortal Venerables, maybe my Physical Strength can break through directly and condense a strand of True Dragon Power. Who knows? And by absorbing the power of hundreds or thousands of High-tier True Immortals, I might just be able to advance further, reaching the Peak of the Blue Flame Realm First Revolution, or even the Second Revolution.'

The more Yang Xiao thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.

His gaze toward Nangong Tianling grew more and more expectant.

True Dragon Power.

Even a single strand of True Dragon Power.

It would mean that Yang Xiao's Physical Strength was comparable to that of a Tier One True God, and a particularly ferocious True Dragon at that.

Combined with the True Dragon Killing Technique taught by Elder Long,

he would be able to contend with even Tier Two or Tier Three True Gods.

Adding in the Emperor Golden Dragon Secret Technique and Yang Xiao's own foundation,

Tier Four, even Tier Five Divine Generals—

he would likely have a fighting chance against them.

This way,

Yang Xiao would finally have a real chance of survival in the Hidden Dragon Secret Realm.

Otherwise,

with his current cultivation, without the Divine General Talisman, even though he was comparable to a Tier Three True God, the strength of a mere Tier Three True God was still far too weak.

That was merely on par with Guao Han.

And Guao Han was only ranked in the nine-hundreds on the entire Hidden Dragon List.

He could be said to be at the very bottom of the Hidden Dragon List.

But if he had the combat power of a Tier Four or Tier Five,

it would be a different story.

He could at least rank in the top one hundred.

In that case,

Yang Xiao would finally have the ability to survive.

So,

this opportunity to ambush and kill the Immortal Daoists was absolutely vital for Yang Xiao.

It was even a matter of life and death.

"Young Master…"

However, Nangong Tianling was still hesitant.

After all,

those Immortal Daoists had come with ill intentions.

If something really happened to the Young Master, how could she ever face the Young Mistress?

"What's wrong? Don't you want revenge?"

Yang Xiao couldn't help but frown.

Nangong Tianling's heart jolted.

"Alright, I'll tell you. But, Young Master, you must promise me one thing."

"What is it?"

Seeing that Nangong Tianling had finally made up her mind, Yang Xiao was overjoyed.

In truth, he could have activated the Divine General Talisman and used his Spiritual Power to scout, but doing so would likely alert the enemy.

It would let the other party know his strength.

If the enemy was strong enough, it wouldn't matter, but if they were weak,

they would probably flee.

The loss would outweigh the gain.

One had to understand.

The amount of power that could be refined from an Immortal Dao Will wasn't entirely dependent on the level of strength; it was more about the intensity of the Immortal Dao Will itself.

The purer the Immortal Dao Will, the faster it could be refined, and the more benefits it brought to Yang Xiao.

Therefore,

Yang Xiao wasn't going to let a single Immortal Cultivator get away.

Now, hearing that Nangong Tianling was willing to talk, he was naturally delighted.

"Young Master, the enemy is incredibly strong. If you can't secure a complete victory, you must leave. Can you do that?"

Seeing how nervous the woman was,

Yang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

He had been wondering what kind of condition she would propose.

It turned out she was just worried about him, afraid he would act recklessly.

A trace of warmth rose in his heart.

Yang Xiao nodded solemnly.

"Don't worry. Until I find my true enemy, I won't joke with my own life."

Hearing this,

Nangong Tianling nodded.

She told Yang Xiao where the enemy had been spotted.

'It's actually that place. Looks like these guys might be here for me.'

With a thought,

Yang Xiao's figure flickered,

and he instantly vanished.

Having learned the specific location, he immediately activated the Divine General Talisman.

Unable to wait, he rushed over.

When he reappeared, he was already in the Ten Thousand Mile Desert.
