Chapter 1153: Chapter 1153: Dragon Cave Chapter 1153: Chapter 1153: Dragon Cave When Yang Xiaotian and his companions arrived near the zone where ice and flame intersect, they saw a village nestled at the base of a distant mountain.

Smoke spiraled up, harmoniously blending with the surroundings of cold air and flames.

Yang Xiaotian was surprised; he had not expected a village in such a perilous location.

After some thought, he and his companions flew toward the village.

As they approached the village, they saw a man carrying a medicinal basket on his back and holding a hoe, seemingly about to go gather herbs.

This man was of the Divine King Realm.

He must be one of the villagers.

Yang Xiaotian and his companions landed in front of the man.

The man, seeing Yang Xiaotian and his companions suddenly arrive, looked defensive.

Seeing the man’s defensive stance and his readiness to attack, Yang Xiaotian spoke up, “Young brother, we mean no harm. We wish to enter the Twin Extremes Mountain Range and only want to inquire about it.”

“You want to enter the Twin Extremes Mountain Range?” the man asked, “Are you perhaps looking for the Twin Extremes Ice-Fire Divine Flower?” He then shook his head, “Moreover, people from the Octagon Beast King Mansion have also come.”

“You simply won’t be able to obtain it.”

“It would just mean throwing your lives away.”

Yang Xiaotian was taken aback, “The Twin Extremes Ice-Fire Divine Flower?”

“Yes, the Twin Extremes Ice-Fire Divine Flower,” the man said suspiciously as he looked at Yang Xiaotian and his group, “If you’re not here for the Twin Extremes Ice-Fire Divine Flower, what do you want in the Twin Extremes Mountain Range?”

Yang Xiaotian explained, “We just want to find some things in the Twin Extremes Mountain Range.” He then asked the man about the zone where ice and flame intersect.

The man shared what he knew with Yang Xiaotian.

It turned out that this village was descended from a certain Medicine God, who was once a renowned Medicine God expert in Chaos Domain and had later retired here.

The identity of the Medicine God was not disclosed by the man; he merely mentioned that where ice and flame intersected was very dangerous and advised Yang Xiaotian and his companions not to delve any deeper.

Furthermore, with the ripening of the Twin Extremes Ice-Fire Divine Flower, many a master had come, including people from the Octagon Beast King Mansion.

“Octagon Beast King Mansion,” Yang Xiaotian muttered to himself.

After bidding farewell to the man, Yang Xiaotian and his companions flew toward the zone where the ice and flame intersected.

Soon, they reached the aforementioned zone.

Upon arriving, they saw ahead a sea of ice and flames, swirling and filling the surrounding space.

Yang Xiaotian and his group hadn’t even entered when they already felt the astonishing cold and blazing heat.

After a brief pause, Yang Xiaotian and his companions broke through the cold air and flames and entered the zone where the powers of the two extremes met.

As soon as they entered, they sensed strong fluctuations of power ahead, along with a massive rumbling sound, clearly indicating a fight ahead.

Ahead lay the location of the Dragon Cave, so Yang Xiaotian and his companions continued flying forward.

Before long, they saw a large group of masters engaged in combat.

There were thousands on both sides, facing off in a large canyon, which blocked Yang Xiaotian and his group’s path.

“Excuse us, we need to pass through,” Yang Xiaotian said upon arrival.

The people present glanced at Yang Xiaotian but ignored him and his group, continuing to stand their ground.

Sword Prison King saw the situation and casually flicked out a streak of Sword Qi.

Instantly, a storm of Sword Qi appeared, lifting everyone present off their feet amidst screams of terror.

Those who were not hit by the Sword Qi storm also looked on with faces of horror at the Sword Prison King.

Yang Xiaotian saw that everyone had finally stopped and, along with a few others, dashed forward.

However, just as Yang Xiaotian and his companions were about to cross over the crowd and fly toward the canyon ahead, suddenly, malice gleamed in one man’s eyes. With a wave of his hand, a flurry of poison needles shot violently towards Yang Xiaotian and his group.

Seeing this, the Sword Prison King and his companions reacted furiously, waving their hands. The flurry of poison needles was deflected back, piercing the man who had attacked them.

The man was sent flying backward and landed dead on the ground, breathless.

Yang Xiaotian didn’t pay any more attention to the crowd and continued flying towards the canyon ahead.

As Yang Xiaotian and his companions vanished into the sharp cold and blazing waves of the canyon, the remaining people at the scene stared at the middle-aged man who had been blown away by the poison needles and killed, their faces pale and filled with dread.

This middle-aged man was none other than the son of the Heavenly Affection Supreme Venerable from the Octagon Beast King Mansion.

The Octagon Beast King had two powerful subordinates, and the Heavenly Affection Supreme Venerable was one of them.

“What should we do?” one person asked fearfully, looking at the body of the Heavenly Affection Supreme Venerable’s son.

“Should we report to Lord Heavenly Affection?” another hesitated.

Meanwhile, having passed through layers of icy mists and fiery waves, Yang Xiaotian and his companions arrived in a broad mountainous area.

According to the Blood Dragon Ancestor, the Dragon Cave was located at the end of this mountain range.

However, though the mountain terrain appeared calm, it was fraught with peril. Living beneath it was a type of earth serpent, an ancient anomaly with both ice and fire powers, and in great numbers.

As Yang Xiaotian and his group approached the end of the mountain range, they were attacked by the Desolate Earth Serpents.

Despite the formidable might of these ancient creatures, under the Sword Qi of the Sword Prison King and the Boundless Sword God, they were shattered into countless pieces.

Soon after, the group arrived at the end of the mountain range.

As Yang Xiaotian and his group reached the mountain’s end, a group of elite warriors from the Invincible Sect also arrived at the Octagon Beast King Mansion.

Leading this group from the Invincible Sect was Liu Fuqun, the Third Disciple of Invincible Zhantian.

Liu Fuqun had come following the orders of Invincible Zhantian to search for Divine Medicine to prepare medicinal liquids for the Divine Protector Young Master’s cultivation in the Chaos Medicine Furnace.

Over the years, the Divine Protector Young Master had been cultivating in the Chaos Medicine Furnace with excellent results, having nearly absorbed all the medicinal liquid inside. Therefore, they needed to prepare a new batch of medicinal liquid.

Upon Liu Fuqun and his companions’ arrival, the Octagon Beast King warmly and ceremoniously welcomed them into his mansion. When the Octagon Beast King heard that the numerous Divine Medicines Liu Fuqun was seeking were located near the Twin Extremes Mountain Range, he immediately took Liu Fuqun and his companions to fly towards the range.

“This Divine Medicine is crucial, we cannot afford any mistakes,” Liu Fuqun solemnly said to the Octagon Beast King along the way. “If there’s any mistake, neither of us can bear the consequences.”

The Octagon Beast King chilled, responding, “Brother Liu, rest assured, the dozen or so types of Divine Medicine you seek are not hard to find, we should be able to locate them quite easily.”

Liu Fuqun nodded.

Before leaving, Invincible Zhantian had repeatedly instructed him to ensure he brought back all the required Divine Medicines within three months; not one could be missing.

That’s because, in three months, the flow of medicinal liquid that the Divine Protector Young Master was absorbing would stop.

Although there were still three months, giving them ample time, Liu Fuqun did not dare to be negligent.

While the Invincible Sect’s elites and the Octagon Beast King were flying towards the Twin Extremes Mountain Range, Yang Xiaotian and his companions arrived in front of a tall mountain.

After traversing the dense forest on the mountain, they found a tranquil river.

Calm and undisturbed, the Dragon Cave was located at the bottom of the river.
