It was as if a handful of salt had been poured into a pot of oil, and after the halo dissipated, an incredible scene appeared.
The bodies of the tens of thousands of Demon Race masters began to glow red as if they had been injected with stimulants, their auras suddenly rising.
Wen Zishan, Ma Qing, and Xiao Yuyang’s expressions all changed, revealing looks of shock.
Ma Qing cried out, “What kind of Secret Technique is this?”
This kind of Secret Technique was simply unheard of. As the red light flashed, the momentum of the ten thousand Demon Race masters rose significantly, increasing their strength by a large margin. Such a Secret Technique was truly a miracle.
Just think about it, if the two evenly matched groups were fighting a bloody battle and one side suddenly obtained the support of such a Secret Technique, the outcome of the battle would be certain.
Not to mention, Yang Kai’s Secret Technique could cover over ten thousand people.
Ma Qing had never seen it before, Xiao Yuyang had never seen it before, and so had Wen Zishan. All three of them were stunned.
On the other hand, Fan Wu and the other two who had come over to see what was going on looked at each other and Cang Gou frowned, “Why do I feel like this is…” The last few words were spoken so lightly that even Ma Qing and the other two couldn’t understand.
Fan Wu nodded, “A bit like it.”
Luan Feng frowned, “That shouldn’t be the case, how could he use such a Secret Technique?”
Although the three of them had never seen this kind of Secret Technique before, each of them had a similar memory in their Holy Spirit Origin Inheritance, but because they had never seen it before, they couldn’t be certain.
The three of them spoke one after another, causing Ma Qing and the others to feel an unbearable itch in their hearts. They couldn’t help scratching their cheeks, thinking that there was something they couldn’t say openly, why were they acting so mysteriously, but in front of these three Holy Spirits, they didn’t dare act too presumptuously.
At this moment, Yang Kai’s incantation changed and he pointed his finger downwards again. The light on his fingertip was spotlessly white and radiated a brilliant light.
When the milky white light swept past, the ten thousand demons all let out painful groans, and soon after, wisps of Demonic Qi seeped out from their bodies and disappeared.
Ma Qing’s eyes widened, “It really worked!”
It wasn’t that they hadn’t tried to expel the Demonic Qi from the Demon Race’s bodies before, but they had never been able to do so. The strange Demonic Qi was extremely difficult to deal with, so even if they were able to expel some of it, they wouldn’t be able to completely expel it, nor would they be able to use such a method like Yang Kai.
One had to know that they could only dispel it one on one, but Yang Kai had used this Secret Technique to envelop more than ten thousand people at once, so the gap between them was simply too great.
“Ancient Wizard Technique!” Fan Wu’s expression changed as he shouted.
If he had only been suspicious just now, he was now certain that the Secret Technique Yang Kai had used was an ancient Wizard Technique!
“Ancient Wizard Technique?” Ma Qing’s eyes widened as he stared at Fan Wu in shock, asking humbly, “Brother Fan, are you saying that this is an ancient Secret Technique?”
Fan Wu glanced at him and ignored him.
He was a Holy Spirit after all, and the Monster Kings under his command were all comparable to Third-Order Emperor Realm masters. Ma Qing himself was only at this level of cultivation, in the Wild Ancient Land, he was just like one of his subordinates, yet he actually dared to call him brother. It would be strange if Fan Wu could not ignore him.
Seeing the disdain in Fan Wu’s eyes, Ma Qing’s face flushed red, but his fists were not as big as others, so he didn’t dare act out, not to mention feeling embarrassed.
Wen Zishan laughed in his heart, but on the surface, he maintained a calm expression as he said, “This little brat’s luck is quite good, actually being able to obtain an ancient Secret Technique, this is a great help.”
Fan Wu said lightly, “This has nothing to do with whether or not he can obtain it.”
“What do you mean?” Wen Zishan looked at him curiously.
Perhaps it was because of Yang Kai, but Fan Wu’s attitude towards Wen Zishan was quite good. After pondering for a moment, he said, “In the current Star Boundary, it’s not that there aren’t any ancient Secret Techniques, but have you seen anyone use one?”
Wen Zishan frowned and said, “I’ve never seen it before, perhaps people was hiding away to cultivate it.”
Luan Feng smiled lightly, “It can’t be cultivate.”
Wen Zishan was stunned, “Why?”
The Luan Feng explained, “Each era has its own Heaven and Earth Law, and under the corresponding Heaven and Earth Law, a corresponding Secret Technique is born. Wizard Technique is something from the Ancient Era, and only in the Ancient Era can one cultivate it. The current Heaven and Earth Law of the Star Boundary simply cannot meet the requirements to cultivate it.”
Ma Qing and Wen Zishan looked at each other, “There’s such a thing?”
Although their cultivations weren’t low and their knowledge wasn’t shallow, they had never heard of such a thing before. Only the Holy Spirit, a unique existence capable of inheriting memories, could understand a thing or two.
Xiao Yuyang nodded slightly and said, “I’ve heard similar words from the Great Emperor before. The Great Emperor once said that if my Star Boundary’s current Secret Techniques were to be changed, I’m afraid they wouldn’t be able to bear fruit.”
Fan Wu nodded, “Exactly.”
Ma Qing was stunned, “But since Elder Yang is using it, it means he has successfully cultivated it. Why is that?”
Yes, why was this so? Not only did he not understand, but the three Holy Spirits also couldn’t understand. They even suspected that Yang Kai had encountered some kind of fortuitous encounter in the Wild Ancient Land and had even successfully cultivated this Ancient Technique in the Wild Ancient Land.
The reason why the Wild Ancient Land was called this place was because it had inherited the aura of the Ancient Barbarian Land and had not changed over the years. The World Laws of the Wild Ancient Land were slightly different from the environment of the entire Star Boundary.
When an ordinary cultivator entered the Wild Ancient Land, they would be suppressed to a certain extent. Everyone thought that this was because of the aura of the Wild Ancient Land, but in fact, it was because of the different laws of the world.
If there was any place in this world that could allow Yang Kai to cultivate this ancient Wizard Technique, it would be the Wild Ancient Land.
However, Fan Wu and the others had never heard of the inheritance of Wizard Technique in the Wild Ancient Land. In addition, Yang Kai had not spent much time in the Wild Ancient Land, so where did he cultivate it from?
“Since the three of you recognize this ancient Wizard Technique, do you know what it is?” Ma Qing asked again.
Fan Wu said, “If I’m not mistaken, the first time, that boy used the Bloodlust Technique.”
“Bloodlust Technique?” Ma Qing raised his brow.
Fan Wu said, “Activating the blood essence of the recipient will allow one’s strength to increase greatly for a certain period of time. I believe you all know similar Secret Techniques.”
Ma Qing was stunned for a moment, his eyes red for a long time. So it was this kind of Secret Technique. Naturally, all of them knew similar Secret Techniques, not to mention the few of them, even ordinary cultivators would have mastered them.
However, if one’s Blood Essence was stimulated, although it could increase one’s strength for a short period of time, it would definitely become weaker afterwards and they would fall into a period of rest and recuperation.
“This is one of the fundamental wizard technique of the Ancient Barbarians,” Luan Feng continued, “The Ancient Barbarians don’t have the Martial Dao we have now. Only a small number of them with outstanding aptitudes can cultivate this type of wizard technique, while the rest can temper their bodies and tendons. However, there are also rumors that some of them can become Saints with their physiques, and their methods aren’t inferior to those of the current Great Emperors. It is precisely because the bodies of the Ancient Barbarians are so strong that they are able to endure this Bloodlust Technique and survive in such harsh environments. With the current physiques of the Star Boundary cultivators, it’s likely they won’t be able to withstand it many times.”
“Such a thing actually happened,” Ma Qing sighed. After learning the truth about Bloodlust, there was no need to be jealous, after all, it required a strong physique to support it.
“The three of you are truly knowledgeable.” Although they knew that they had learned about this because of the Origin Inheritance, they knew that flattery was not cheap.
The second Secret Technique, Fan Wu, and the others didn’t explain further, but everyone knew that it should be something similar to the Clear Heart Technique, but it was far more effective than the Clear Heart Technique. It could be said to be the nemesis of Demonic Qi.
On the other side, Yang Kai was tirelessly performing his Demon Expelling Technique again, causing howls of pain to ring out from the mountain valley. A trace of Demonic Qi leaked out from the bodies of the tens of thousands of Demon Race masters, quickly dissipating like snowflakes under the sun.
Half a day later, the situation of the tens of thousands of Demon Race masters in the valley became much better. Some of them had gradually regained their consciousness and sat down cross-legged, coordinating with Yang Kai’s Demon Expelling Technique while adjusting themselves.
A day later, Yang Kai had no choice but to stop and rest.
The continuous use of Demon Expelling Techniques caused his Emperor Qi to nearly dry up. After consuming a few Emperor Pills and taking some Source Crystals to meditate, he only began again two hours later.
After a full three days, the Demonic Qi in the ten thousand Demon Race masters’ bodies had been completely purged. At least a thousand of them had been completely devoured by the Demonic Qi, and even Yang Kai’s Demon Expelling Technique was unable to save them. The Demon Expelling Technique would only cause harm to them and had no effect on them.
For a time, the valley was in a miserable state. Under the leadership of their respective elders, the cultivators who had just recovered headed to different places to rest. Xiao Yuyang and the others had long since come to a conclusion on how to deal with the remaining thousands of demons.
Since he couldn’t save them, he could only give them a quick death.
Xiao Yuyang had personally taken action, and with a single move, nearly the entire mountain valley had been turned upside down. Thousands of Demon Race masters had also been buried, causing the scene to become even more tragic. Soft sobs could be heard everywhere. This time, all the great Sects who had come to participate in the Southern Domain Martial Meeting, regardless of whether they were strong or weak, had suffered great losses. The most miserable Sects had nearly been wiped out, leaving only a few survivors.
The Azure Sun Temple also suffered losses. One of their Emperor Realm Elders had died, and among the disciples who had come to participate in the Martial Meeting, nearly half of their Void King Realm and Void Return Stage masters had died, while only a few of their Principle Source Stage masters had died. This was even after Wen Zishan had used all his strength to protect them, otherwise, the losses would have been even greater.
His vitality had been greatly damaged.
“Elder Yang, I need you to take a look at these people.”
While they were resting, Ma Qing, Wen Zishan, and Xiao Yuyang arrived together. Behind them, a group of Emperor Realm escorted two groups of people. These two groups didn’t have many people, one group only had seven or eight, while the other group only had a dozen or so.
On the surface, these people didn’t seem to be anything special, just that their cultivations had been sealed. The seven or eight people on the left wore gloomy expressions, their hearts all dead, while the dozen or so people on the right constantly complained about being wronged.
Most of these people were at the Emperor Realm, while the remaining ones had varying strength.
