Chapter 1613: Yang Child Sword

In an unremarkable location in the ancient battlefield was a field of boulders. The place had been surrounded by the White Lotus Sect, with their flags standing proudly in the area. The flags served as a warning to dissuade other Saints from entering the area.

The White Lotus Sect was one of the strongest organizations in the Northern Border. They were even stronger than an organization like the Darkdevil Sect, and they were only a tier below the three superpowers. Thus, nobody would be blind enough to provoke them.

They had discovered a cave amid the field of boulders. The remnant souls that had initially been roaming the area had all been taken care of, and a group of powerful cultivators was gathered near the cave, attempting to destroy the god-grade formation covering it.

The group was none other than the White Lotus Alliance led by Beiming Tianpeng. The so-called White Lotus Alliance was a group of cultivators gathered under the White Lotus Sect's banner. The White Lotus Sect would act as the leader of the alliance during their adventures in the ancient battlefield.

Beiming Tianpeng was an ambitious individual, and he was the most talented holy son to have ever emerged from the White Lotus Sect. He was now a third-stage pseudo-God, the same cultivation level as Xiang Shaoyun. With his ability to fight above his class, not even ordinary Gods were his match.

One ought to know that Beiming Tianpeng had broken through into the Heaven Battling Realm less than 10 years ago. In such a short period of time, he had risen from third-stage Heaven Battling Realm to the pseudo-God Realm. That was a terrifying rate of growth. It was no wonder that he could rally so many capable cultivators around him.

"How long has it been? Why isn't the formation broken yet?" questioned Beiming Tianpeng impatiently.

Beiming Tianpeng was a heroic and handsome young man and, surrounded by beauties, was as dazzling as a moon surrounded by stars.

"Holy son, this formation is somewhat complicated. We still need more time for it," replied a pseudo-God.

"Um. Increase your speed. If other groups find out about this, it will be hard for us to get everything buried here," said Beiming Tianpeng solemnly. "Why is Bai Mei's group not back? Can't they deal with even a small group like that?"

"They will probably be back soon," said the pseudo-God, but there was no confidence in his voice.

Unfortunately for them, things had not progressed as they had expected. Bai Mei's group was nowhere to be seen. Rather, a concealed figure was slowly approaching. That figure was none other than Xiang Shaoyun. After finding out about the divine vault from Baili Yixiao and putting Bai Mei's group under his control, he hurried over alone.

He did not bring his companions because he knew Beiming Tianpeng's group was bigger and stronger. Even with his companions by his side, victory was not guaranteed. In that case, it would be better for him to scout alone before deciding on a course of action.

With the Invisible Nether, it was extremely hard for one to detect Xiang Shaoyun unless one had innate eye abilities or an innately sensitive sense of smell. However, these kinds of people were extremely rare.

Xiang Shaoyun arrived before the cave noiselessly and discovered three formation masters studying the area. They were searching for formation lines in their attempt to break the formation.

With his divine dao eyes, Xiang Shaoyun was able to see every single formation line in the area, and with the profundity of earth, he was able to fuse himself with the earth beneath him. Soon, he gained a full understanding of the formation. The formation wasn't too complicated, but these formation masters weren't skilled enough to quickly break the formation.

It was not that they couldn't break through the formation with brute force, but doing so would destroy everything in the cave and attract unwanted attention. Thus, that was not something they wished to do.

What a bunch of fools, thought Xiang Shaoyun inwardly when he saw how helpless the formation masters were.

The formation was filled with openings, yet these formation masters had not been able to discover them. In that case, they only had themselves to blame if he decided to proceed into the cave before them.

He started approaching the formation while avoiding the sensitive areas of the formation. Relying on his energy, he modified the formation, creating a tiny crack in the formation before rushing through it.

"Huh? Why did I feel like the formation just moved?" muttered a formation master in astonishment.

"You must be dreaming. Focus on breaking the formation. All of us will suffer if the holy son flips out," said a different formation master.

Meanwhile, Xiang Shaoyun had entered the cave. The situation within the cave wasn't complicated at all. In fact, Xiang Shaoyun could see everything in it at one glance. There was no large number of divine treasures. Instead, there was only a corpse seated cross-legged in the cave.

In the corpse's hand was a god-grade weapon, and the tip of the weapon was stabbed into the head of an alien. The corpse's heart had evidently been crushed by the alien, resulting in the destruction of its inner organs as well. One could only imagine the bitter battle the corpse was in before its death.

Anyone in the God Realm was supposed to be able to regrow their body so long as one's soul was intact. However, both combatants in the cave were dead. Clearly, the two had perished together.

Under close observation, Xiang Shaoyun discovered that the corpse was wielding a peculiar longsword with familiar ancient symbols on its blade. At that moment, the Yin Mother Sword in his astral cosmos sea started pulsing, and the longsword started trembling.

The longsword started emanating an energy of extreme yang. The pure white radiance blanketed the entire cave. The white energy washed over Xiang Shaoyun, covering him with a comfortable sensation as though he was soaking in a hot spring. A warm current circulated in his body, and at that moment, he opened his astral cosmos sea and allowed the Yin Mother Sword to fly out.

The energy of extreme yin from the Yin Mother Sword interweaved with the bright energy from the longsword. Yin and yang intermingled to form a tai chi diagram as the two swords chased after each other in the air. Before long, the two swords collided.

Ding!

Xiang Shaoyun's eyes widened as he exclaimed, "I-is this the Yang Child Sword?"

During ancient times, a divine weapon known as the Mother Child Divine Yin Yang Sword existed. It was one of humanity's strongest weapons, and it was rumored that the Divine Yin Yang Sword could help a human reach the pinnacle of existence. Thus, not even Xiang Shaoyun could remain calm when both the mother and child swords were before him.

He had not imagined that the Yang Child Sword would be found in the ancient battlefield, and he had definitely not expected to discover it so easily. Before he could recover from his shock, the two swords fused into one and instantly released a powerful aura of yin and yang. Energy currents suddenly filled the cave as the mantra of the yin yang sword dao surfaced in Xiang Shaoyun's mind. He was completely stunned.

Meanwhile, those outside the cave were completely alarmed by the convergence of energy in the cave.
