The flying Soul Devouring Insect cloud all rushed towards him at once, the buzzing sound was endless, Yang Kai stood in place with a serious expression, his face was on guard, ready to take action at any time.
In a short while, he was wrapped in a cloud of insects, and then, a Soul Devouring Insect land on him, shaking its wings and staying still, crawling there quietly, then another...
A large cloud of insects fell down, enclosing his entire inner and outer three layers, completely concealing his figure.
But all the Soul Devouring Insect were quiet, and had no intention of attacking Yang Kai. Instead, under a layer of invisible connection, these Soul Devouring Insect all obeyed Yang Kai's words.
"Hahahaha!" Yang Kai couldn't help laughing out loud, only feeling that the slave insect bracelet was really a good treasure.
When he was in the Divine Movement Mirror World at that time, Yang Kai felt that his batch of Soul Devouring Insect was not under control, and the other batch of Soul Devouring Insect he got from Tian Yan was even more distracted from him.
But now, this evolved Soul Devouring Insect obediently obeyed his orders, like an arm clerk, and the greatest credit naturally goes to the slave insect bracelet.
This Emperor Treasure does not have the ability to attack and defend, but it restrains all the strange insects in the world. It is the life-long effort of the insect emperor, and it is really effective against the Soul Devouring Insect.
In this way, Yang Kai no longer has any worries, and when he encounters a strong enemy in the future, the Soul Devouring Insect can also become a means of confronting them.
After the experiment, Yang Kai was very satisfied, and his mind moved slightly to let the Soul Devouring Insect return to the big urn and recuperate.
The space inside this slave insect bracelet seems to have some subtle promotion effect on the survival of the strange and unusual insects. The strange insects staying here will not die and weaken, but will become stronger and stronger.
Of course, if the Soul Devouring Insect wants to grow faster, Yang Kai still needs to find more Phaseless Profound Herbs to feed them.
Phaseless Profound Herbs is not too rare. Many large sects can cultivate it themselves, so it is not difficult to find them, but Yang Kai needs a huge amount, which is bound to be an expensive expenditure.
Before the change, Yang Kai might not be able to afford it, but now he has a source crystal mine. There is no need to worry about Source Crystal in a short period of time, so he can purchase it on a large scale.
At this point, Yang Kai quickly withdraw his mind from the Slave Insect Bracelet, opened his eyes and stood up, opened the secret room, and prepared to go to the city to buy some Phaseless Profound Herbs.
Pushing the door out, Yang Kai immediately felt the different world's spiritual energy around him. It seemed that during the period of his cultivation in retreat, the density of Maplewood City's spiritual energy had increased a lot.
This surprised him. Because Lou Chi used the Emperor Treasure Two Records that day, turned it into a seal, and suppressed the Spirit Lake. Logically speaking, with the passage of time, the world's spiritual energy in Maplewood City will become thinner and thinner. Gradually become the same as before.
But after so many days, the spiritual energy is not diminished. On the contrary, there are signs of increasing, making Yang Kai puzzled.
At this time. A beautiful shadow shot from not far away, and it was Ye Qinghan who appeared in front of him.
"Young Master Yang, you are out!" Ye Qinghan looked at Yang Kai up and down, and found that his aura was calm and his light was restrained. Can't help but envy: "Young Master Yang's gain this time seems not small."
"Just so-so." Yang Kai grinned. Having decided to follow Ye Qinghan to Thousand Leaves Sect, he didn't reject her so much. His expression moved, Yang Kai asked in surprise, "You won't stay here forever. Right?"
Ye Qinghan smirked: "Anyway, this mistress has nothing else to do."
Yang Kai said, "Don't worry. Since I have promised you, I will not run, and I will follow you to Thousand Leaves Sect."
"This mistress doesn't mean to monitor Young Master Yang..." Ye Qinghan waved her hand quickly and said in a flustered expression, "This mistress is just...just..."
She talked for a long time without giving a reason, she couldn't help panicking, lest she irritate Yang Kai.
Yang Kai smiled and said, "Forget it, go with me to buy something. We'll leave after we buy it."
Ye Qinghan looked overjoyed, and quickly nodded and said: "Okay, okay..."
At the moment, the two rushed towards the city.
Walking along the road, Yang Kai found that the martial artist in Maplewood City were sparse, no longer as lively as the past, but every martial artist on the street had a beaming expression, as if they had hit a big fortune, he couldn't help feeling very strange. He said: "These guys are smiling like a flower, what good things have happened?"
Ye Qinghan pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Maplewood City is now different from what it used to be, and the spiritual energy is more than three to five times stronger than before. They are naturally happy."
"By the way, I'm about to ask you about this." Yang Kai turned his head and looked at her, "What's the matter with this spiritual energy? Why has it become rich?"
Ye Qinghan said: "Young Master Yang has been in secluded retreat this month. Naturally, he doesn't know about the changes in Maplewood City. This is how things are... Several Senior headed by Master Xiao from the Star Soul Palace discussed a few days ago. Decided to transform the place where Spirit lake is located into a sacred place for cultivation, so they transferred personnel from their respective sects. Ten days ago, all the transformations over there had been completed. Now the place where Spirit Lake is located has become a well-known training place for the entire South Territory, and countless martial artists rushed in, and many people in Maplewood City also went to see the excitement, so the city was not crowded..."
After listening to her explanation, Yang Kai understood why the number of people in Maplewood City suddenly decreased so much, and were all going to the Spirit Lake to watch the excitement.
"That place was named Spirit Lake Palace by Xiao Yuyang and other Seniors. It covers a large area and has many secret rooms built inside for martial artists to retreat and practice."
"Spirit Lake Palace!" Yang Kai frowned.
Ye Qinghan smiled and said, "Exactly."
Yang Kai thoughtfully said, "Then who control this Spirit Lake Palace...and who owns it?"
Ye Qinghan said: "None of the major sects meant to occupy. The Spirit Lake Palace is headed by the Star Soul Palace, and the major sects are jointly managing it with Maplewood City. They are open to the entire South Territory, as long as there are enough source crystals. All can enter into it to practice."
"Oh?" Yang Kai was surprised, "Maplewood City also has a management role?"
"Naturally, Spirit Lake Palace is right next to Maplewood City, and it is best to be managed by the Maplewood City. Now, Maplewood City can be regarded as amazing."
Yang Kai smiled: "I can imagine City Lord Duan happy face."
Ye Qinghan pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Indeed, although City Lord Duan is still at the 3rd-order Principle Source Stage, with Spirit Lake Palace, his status has already risen, I'm afraid that he can compete with those first-line sect masters. Sit on an equal footing."
"The status is not low, the cultivation level is not enough, it is difficult to convince the public!" Yang Kai frowned, worried about Duan Yuanshan.
Ye Qinghan glanced at him and said, "You don’t need to worry about this, Young Master Yang, Master Xiao has already taken charge, and he has accepted both City Lord Duan and Drunkard Vice City Lord as the outer disciples of the Star Soul Palace. In addition, these two City Lord and Vice City Lord also had some idle positions under the Azure Sun Temple, Heavenly Martial Holy Land and many other top forces."
Yang Kai's face was dull when he heard it: "This is also OK?"
Ye Qinghan covered her red lips with a smile, and said, "I'm afraid it's helpless."
"The Lords really have a high opinion." Yang Kai shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Although this has never been heard before, but in this way, no one dares to look down on Duan City Lord and Jiu Lao (Drunkard), and dare not disobey their jurisdiction."
Today, Duan Yuanshan and Jiu Lao, although their cultivation level are not very high, they are backed by a few big trees in the top sects of the entire South Territory, managing Maplewood City and Spirit Lake Palace is naturally no longer a problem.
If anyone dares not to obey the orders, it is tantamount to being an enemy of all the top forces in the entire South Territory. Which one dares to act like this?
"However, Master Xiao is so bold, Star Soul Palace is also worthy of being the overlord of the South Territory, and his tolerance is extraordinary." Yang Kai said sincerely.
To be honest, if the Star Soul Palace really intends to occupy the Spirit Lake Palace, I'm afraid that no one will dare to resist, after all, there is Bright Moon Great Emperor sitting in the Star Soul Palace, and other top forces are simply unable to compete with it.
However, the Star Soul Palace did not do this. Instead, it took the lead and led many forces to turn the Spirit Lake Palace into a sacred place for cultivation open to the entire South Territory. This shows the generosity and strength of this overlord sect.
Not every sect can do this.
Even if it is Azure Sun Temple's Wen Zishan, if such a holy place of cultivation falls into his hands, Yang Kai estimates that he will hide it secretly as a training place for the disciples of Azure Sun Temple.
People always prioritize those with close relation first. This is human nature, and no one will consider others for no reason.
"Go on." Yang Kai motioned.
"Spirit Lake Palace imitates the classification of the sacred grounds of the Star Soul Palace, and is also divided into three levels of heaven, earth and humans. Among them, the human-level sacred land is open to martial artist below Void Return Stage, and the earth-level is open to martial artist below Principle Source stage, as for the heaven-level, it is only open to the strong Emperor Realm." At this point, Ye Qinghan showed a look of longing for it, as if she was looking forward to the supreme Emperor Realm. "The higher the grade, the more source crystals needed to be paid to enter. The Heaven grade cultivation site, it is said that one thousand high-grade source crystals are required for a day and a night, and, only high-grade source crystal is allowed for payment, and it is not allowed to be converted into corresponding amount of middle-rank or low-rank source crystal.
"This price... really scary!" Yang Kai had a sorrowful expression on his face.
One thousand high-grade source crystals is equivalent to one hundred thousand middle-grade source crystal and ten million low-grade source crystals.
This is only for a day and a night, but when the martial artist is cultivating, which time is it not for ten and a half days in retreat? If you want to comprehend the secret technique, a year or a half is common. Especially those who are strong in the Emperor Realm, which might last for more than a few years.
The source crystal required for this cannot be calculated.
Moreover, it is also restricted to only allow high-grade source crystals for payment, and the conditions are extremely harsh.
"However, most of the powerful Emperor Realm are wealthy. If you really want to go a step further above in Martial Dao, you don't necessarily care about these external objects." Yang Kai thoughtfully said.
