Countless of years later, their names have been forgotten in the long river of history. People living and working in peace and contentment in this world do not know that such a thrilling battle has happened in the distant ages.
There is only an old man who silently guards their uncrowned tombs. Only these tombs record the great achievements they have made, and only here can people recall their dedication to this world.
"You must have understand the result of that battle." Tian Yan showed a sad expression on his face and pointed to dozens of graves in front of him.
Yang Kai was in awe and bowed deeply at these graves.
Straightening up, he asked again: "What about the Soul Devouring Insect? Can it be killed?"
Tian Yan slowly shook his head, and said sadly: "I am ashamed, although a huge price has been paid, but the Soul Devouring Insect...It's really not something that the creatures of this world can kill."
Yang Kai's face changed drastically, and he said in shock: "Senior meant to say...that Soul Devouring Insect is still alive?"
Tian Yan nodded.
"How could this be?" Yang Kai suddenly felt a little sad. So many powerful people here died in order to eliminate the Soul Devouring Insect, they paid the price with their lives, but ultimately failed. Doesn't it mean that their sacrifices did not have much value?
Thinking of this, Yang Kai was shocked and said: "Where is the Soul Devouring Insect now?"
"Come with me!" The old man said, and once again used his strength to wrap Yang Kai, and under a flash, he came to the front of the dark altar. He waved his hand to disperse the dense fog here, so that the altar was exposed and his face looked fearful. Pointing to the altar, he said, "The insects that messed up this world back then are all sealed in it!"
Needless to say, Yang Kai has already felt it.
Because when he first appeared here. The Soul Devouring Insect staying in the Mild Soul Lotus actually rioted uncontrollably, seeming wanting to break free from Yang Kai's restraint and fly out of the body.
At the same time, there was a buzzing sound from the altar, forming a peculiar resonance with the Soul Devouring Insect on the Mild Soul Lotus.
Yang Kai's face changed wildly.
"You really have a Soul Devouring Insect." The old man glanced at him with complicated eyes. "It is precisely because of their commotion that the old man will be aware of it, and will go to the Heavenly Monster Mountain to find the cause, but didn't expect. When the old man arrives there, you are no longer there. But... the old man guards this place for tens of thousands. I was very familiar with the aura of the Soul Devouring Insect, and felt that unique aura in the Heavenly Monster Mountain. After questioning the Lord of the Heavenly Monster Mountain that day, he chased into the Divine Movement City."
"Senior don't worry, my Soul Devouring Insect are not powerful. They won't cause any harm to this world, and...when I leave this place, they will definitely be taken away." Yang Kai said quickly.
He thought that Tian Yan brought him here to make him leave the Soul Devouring Insect here, so he explained quickly.
"Little friend Yang misunderstood." Tian Yan slowly shook his head, "The old man didn't want your Soul Devouring Insect. This world is almost destroyed because of this group of insects. How can the old man leave more Soul Devouring Insect here? I take you here, i just want to ask you a favor."
"What favor?" Yang Kai was at a loss.
"Please... take them away!" Tian Yan said, pointing his finger at the dark altar.
Yang Kai twitched his mouth and said dryly: "Senior is joking." He explained: "My Soul Devouring Insect are still weak. In addition, I got them a long time ago, so the junior can still control them a bit, but The Soul Devouring Insect that has been sealed here... Please forgive the junior for his helplessness."
These sealed Soul Devouring Insect, even dozens of 3rd-order Emperor Realm has been swallowed by them, how can Yang Kai dare to get involved? If they were to be collected into Mild Soul Lotus, it would not take long for him to die without a burial place.
"They are no longer as strong as in the past." Tian Yan said. "They have been sealed for countless of years and cannot be nourished by the Divine Soul. They are already very weak. The little friend has a way to control your Soul Devouring Insect. Is there no way to control them?"
Yang Kai smiled bitterly: "Senior looks at me too highly... I was able to control my Soul Devouring Insect before, but within less than 20 days of entering this place, these insects of mine have faintly refused my orders. After leaving this place, i have to find a way..."
At this point, Yang Kai suddenly stopped and fell into contemplation.
Seeing him look like this, Tian Yan couldn't help but be shocked, looking at him expectantly.
He has been guarding this place for tens of thousands of years, and has never left the Mist Valley. One is to guard the graves of those old friends, and the other is to guard the Soul Devouring Insect.
Soul Devouring Insect staying in this world is always a hidden danger. If they can be sent out of this world, there will be no future trouble, then it is definitely what Tian Yan wants to see most.
That's why after he noticed that the Soul Devouring Insect in the altar had awakened, he kept searching for the cause, found Yang Kai, and made this request with him.
After a long while, Yang Kai raised his head, his eyes gleaming, and asked, "Dare to ask Senior, how powerful is this sealed Soul Devouring Insect now?"
Hearing this, Tian Yan answered cautiously: "According to the old man's estimation, even if they are slightly stronger than your Soul Devouring Insect now, they are not much stronger."
"It's just that?" Yang Kai's eyes lit up when he heard it. "If it's only like this, there might be a chance."
"How do you say this?" Tian Yan asked in confusion.
Yang Kai said sternly: "Presumably the seniors also know that the outside world is very different from this place. Although the Soul Devouring Insect is lawless here, there are still many methods to target them in the outside world. The juniors have a strange treasure in his hands. It is the nemesis of all kinds of strange insects..."
"There is such a thing?" Tian Yan was shocked.
"En." Yang Kai nodded, "The junior originally planned to use this strange treasure to subdue my own Soul Devouring Insect after leaving this place, and let them obey orders in the future. If the Soul Devouring Insect sealed here are not too strong. It might not be impossible for the junior to subdue them all together."
What he refers to is naturally the slave insect bracelet left by the insect emperor.
This thing is extremely effective in restraining the strange insects. The Soul Devouring Insect can never resist its power. Of course, the premise is that the Soul Devouring Insect cannot be too strong, if it is strong enough that it can even swallowed the Emperor Realm. Yang Kai didn't dare to fool around.
However, after receiving Tian Yan's answer, Yang Kai had a thought that made him eager to move.
"With this treasure for help, you can really give it a try." Tian Yan looked excited, "I just don't know how sure the little friend is? The old man brought you here and made this request to you. It is just a try. If it is too dangerous. That's all, the old man will guard it for tens of thousands of years."
Yang Kai smiled slightly and said: "I'm still very sure, but I still need the help of senior."
Tian Yan said: "What are your needs, just talk about it."
Yang Kai said, "I have my own Soul Devouring Insects. Although they are a bit awkward, they still do no harm to me. If the Soul Devouring Insect that are sealed here are taken away by me, they will definitely enter my Divine Soul Spirit Body. The junior ask the senior to seal it up for a while, lest the junior cannot compete with it."
He was worried about this.
If he want to take away the Soul Devouring Insect, he must first collect them into his Divine Soul Spirit Body.
In case they broke out, how could Yang Kai resist? What's more, after he goes out this time, he still needs to refine the slave insect bracelet, and he must not be disturbed too much. If he is caught in a battle with the Soul Devouring Insect, he will not be able to refine the Emperor Treasure.
What Yang Kai didn't expect was that after he made this request, Tian Yan actually appeared distressed.
Yang Kai said: "Is this very difficult for senior?"
Tian Yan glanced at him and nodded slightly.
Yang Kai was shocked, and said: "Why? According to the senior, these Soul Devouring Insect are already extremely weak, but senior, your cultivation level is beyond the sky..."
"The strength of the old man makes it easy to frighten them for a while, but... it is impossible for the old man to leave this world with you. Without the old man, the Soul Devouring Insect will definitely have no restrictions."
Yang Kai's eyes widened, he looked at Tian Yan in amazement, and pointed to the altar and said, "But senior, how did you seal them back then?"
The Soul Devouring Insect back then was definitely ten thousand times stronger than it is now. The Soul Devouring Insect back then was sealed, but why can't it be sealed again now?
Yang Kai couldn't understand.
Tian Yan said: "Ashamed! This seal is not the work of the old man."
Yang Kai raised his brows, and said in surprise, "Could it be that...is it the power of everyone at the time?"
"That's it." Tian Yan nodded slightly, "But there is another force added to it, otherwise how can they be sealed for so long?"
"What power?" Yang Kai asked.
Tian Yan did not speak, but pointed at the sky.
Yang Kai was at a loss, then suddenly realized, then shocked, and lost his voice: "The world's Mirror Soul?"
Tian Yan said: "This world has its own will and Laws. The Soul Devouring Insect destroys all living beings and breaks the world. It cannot be tolerated by the power of the heaven and earth. Only when the law comes, did we have the opportunity to seal the Soul Devouring Insect! After all, no matter how strong the power we use, it is only food for the Soul Devouring Insect. Only the power of heaven and earth forms a layer of protection between the power of the Soul Devouring Insect and others can stop them from swallowing it."
When he explained this, Yang Kai immediately understood.
This seal is roughly divided into two layers, one layer is the will of the mirror soul, which is also the mighty power of the world, and the other layer is the power of the many powerful people. The two layers of power are combined into one to seal the Soul Devouring Insect for tens of thousands of years, and one is indispensable.
"Senior can let the junior to communicate with this world power?" Yang Kai asked with clear eyes.
Because at this moment, he suddenly thought of Grandma You's previous plan.
She wants to snatch Mild Soul Lotus, the biggest purpose is to use Mild Soul Lotus as a carrier to carry the mirror soul and refine this world.
If Yang Kai could communicate with Mirror Soul one or two, he might have the opportunity to do this.
Once he succeeds, he will become the master of the Divine Movement Mirror, and he can enter it anytime and anywhere in the future to temper his divine soul.
