Inside the small Pure Land in the Boundless Sea of Blood, Bright Moon’s face was pale and his seven orifices were bleeding, making him look extremely miserable.
After half a day of fighting with Xue Li, his already injured body couldn’t bear the burden any longer. If it weren’t for the thing Yang Kai had taken out earlier, he wouldn’t have done such a thing. After all, after accumulating so much strength for such a long time, all of his previous efforts would have been in vain.
Fortunately, Yang Kai had given him a new hope. Opening the jade box, he took out a leaf of the Eternal Tree, gently twisted it a few times, put it into his mouth, held it under his tongue, and began circulating his Secret Art.
A moment later, the millions upon millions of pores on the surface of Bright Moon’s body began to emit a green radiance as a surging vitality flowed through his meridians and flesh, repairing the hidden injuries in his body. The giant hole in his abdomen also began to wriggle as a dark Demonic Qi began to leak out, gradually showing signs of healing.
Feeling the powerful recovery ability of the Eternal Tree’s leaves, even Bright Moon couldn’t help showing a look of joy.
While he was fighting Xue Li, tens of thousands of kilometers away, Yang Kai suddenly appeared with a solemn expression.
Hiding inside the Mysterious Boundary Bead and using the power of the Bright moon to shoot out the Mysterious Boundary Bead was somewhat risky. If Xue Li discovered the existence of the Mysterious Boundary Bead, Yang Kai would definitely be exposed.
However, at that time, Xue Li couldn’t possibly have done everything he wanted, and with his meticulous planning, Bright Moon finally found a suitable opportunity to deliver the Mysterious Boundary Bead.
A distance of tens of thousands of kilometers was not enough to avoid the Divine Sense of a Demon Saint. After Yang Kai emerged from the Mysterious Boundary Bead, he turned his head and saw a violent wind blowing and a rumbling sound. Knowing that Bright Moon was distracting Xue Li’s attention, Yang Kai didn’t hesitate to turn around and rush towards the direction he had come from.
There were no twists and turns along the way, so after two days, Yang Kai returned to Bei Limo’s territory and met up with Tu Qialuo and the others.
The following days were uneventful.
Yang Kai’s goal of infiltrating the Eternal Heaven Continent to find Bright Moon's whereabouts had been achieved, and now he knew what his current situation was. What he needed to do now was wait a year to inquire about Bright Moon's whereabouts, and when the time came, he would wait for an opportunity to act, so he didn’t want to waste any more time. He was quite cooperative when it came to dealing with Bei Limo’s territory's World Gate, repairing and maintaining it. Of course, if he had the opportunity to find those missing continents and let the Mysterious Boundary Bead devour them, he wouldn’t waste it.
This state continued until two months later, when all the continents in Bei Limo’s territory had been dealt with, the group returned to Proud Snow Continent.
Yang Kai didn’t really want to meet Bei Limo again, but he couldn’t resist Bai Ya’s invitation, not to mention that they were still in her territory, so he really should bid her farewell before leaving.
After returning to Proud Snow Continent, under the leadership of Bai Ya, they once again entered Proud Snow Ice Palace. After waiting for a long time in the side hall, Bai Ya returned awkwardly.
Yang Kai looked at him blankly.
Bai Ya said, “Brother Yang, the Saint has some important matters to attend to, so I’m afraid she won’t have time to see you today.”
Hearing this, Yang Kai sneered in his heart. What kind of important matter could Bei Limo have that she didn’t even have time to see him? It was obvious she didn’t want to see him, but it just so happened that he couldn’t be bothered to see this woman, so everyone quickly agreed and cupped their fists, “In that case, this King will take his leave. Brother Bai Ya, can stay!”
In any case, his etiquette had already arrived, so Bei Limo had no excuse to blame him in the future.
“Brother Yang, wait!” Bai Ya quickly called out to him.
“Is there anything else?” Yang Kai asked.
Bai Ya said solemnly, “I’m afraid Brother Yang cannot return.”
Yang Kai’s eyes narrowed, “What do you mean?” Bei Limo wouldn’t want to make him stay here forever, right? That was too naive. If she really wanted to do this, Yu Rumeng would never agree.
Seeing his expression, Bai Ya knew that he had misunderstood, but there was nothing he could do about it. After all, Bei Limo also had a previous record. Last time, she had even thrown him into the Nether Cold Ice Prison and locked him up for many days, so it was hard to say if he had any grievances.
He quickly explained, “It’s like this, Yang Kai’s ability to repair World Gates is something the other Saint Venerable need, so Brother Yang must go to Chi Yan Saint Venerable.”
Hearing this, Yang Kai’s mouth twitched. Although he knew he wouldn’t be able to rest for a long time, he didn’t expect that these Demon Saints wouldn’t even give him time to rest. He didn’t know why they were so anxious, but in any case, if something were to happen to those World Gates, it would have happened long ago.
Pondering for a moment, he said, “Then I must return to Saint Yu Rumeng and report to her about this matter.”
Bai Ya smiled and said, “This is also the intention of Saint Yu Rumeng. Saint Yu Rumeng's intention is that Brother Yang doesn’t need to return, but first deal with the Demon Saint Land’s World Gates.”
Hearing this, Yang Kai was somewhat speechless and asked, “Rumeng really said that?”
Bai Ya nodded, “Saint Yu Rumeng has a connection with my Saint Venerable.”
Most likely, Bei Limo wouldn’t lie to him about something like this. Since she said so, it must be true. Yang Kai’s heart burned with anger. He had unknowingly been sold off by Yu Rumeng, and it seemed that his status in her heart wasn’t as great as he had imagined. If things went wrong, she really might be able to resolve the suppression of the Heart Seal Secret Technique, so it seemed he had to be more careful with her in the future.
With a solemn expression, he nodded, “Since this is the Saint Venerable’s order, this King will naturally obey.”
Bai Ya stretched out his hand and said, “I’ll see Brother Yang off.” Seemingly afraid that Yang Kai would refuse, he added, “Brother Yang’s safety must not be compromised. Someone from Chi Yan Saint Venerable will come to see me, so I must make an appearance.”
Since he had already said so, Yang Kai could only agree, wondering why he was acting like a prisoner under house arrest, even handing over…
Leaving Proud Snow Continent, he flew towards Chi Yan's territory.
Chi Yan was born in the Flame Demon Clan, and its territory was directly connected to Bei Limo’s territory. Like Bei Limo and Yu Rumeng, they were neighbors, so it didn’t take long for them to arrive.
There was a Half-Saint on the other side who also seemed to be a Flame Demon, even his skin a dark red.
However, this unknown Half-Saint was different from Bai Ya, who wore a serious expression. After confirming Yang Kai’s identity, he tossed him a Space Ring and turned to leave.
Yang Kai was stunned, not knowing what this guy was trying to say. Wasn’t he here to ask him to repair the World Gate? Why did it feel like he was just a beggar? He wanted to ask about it, but the other party had already disappeared. As expected of someone from the Flame Demon Clan, his actions were swift and decisive, not even giving him a chance to speak.
Helpless, Yang Kai could only search through the Space Ring and find some jade slips inside. Taking them out, he found that the jade slips contained information about the World Gates that had disappeared from Chi Yan Territory and the continent that had disappeared.
It was likely that Bei Limo had leaked this information, so he had prepared this information for Yang Kai beforehand, saving him a lot of effort.
In addition to these jade slips containing information, there was also a token that was neither jade nor stone. There were no words on it, only a burning flame.
However, Yang Kai estimated that this was most likely the token of that Half-Saint, so he understood that giving him this token was to make it easier for him to travel around the various continents and avoid being interrogated.
This was quite interesting. Yang Kai’s face was filled with joy. Originally, he had been a bit dissatisfied with the Flame Demon's arrogant attitude, but now it seemed that it was exactly what he wanted. On the other hand, he was quite annoyed with Bai Ya, who was always smiling all day but always seemed to be on guard against him.
This time, in Chi Yan's territory, there was no one to interfere with him, so he could do whatever he wanted to do.
Yang Kai took out the jade slips and began examining them one by one. He didn’t care how many World Gates needed to be repaired or how many continents had disappeared from Chi Yan's territory.
In Yu Rumeng’s territory, the Mysterious Boundary Bead had swallowed three continents and Yang Kai had no chance to find the other three that had disappeared. In Bei Limo’s territory, the Mysterious Boudary Bead had swallowed four continents.
A total of six continents had disappeared from this Chi Yan's territory. If no one interfered, Yang Kai could easily find all six of them and swallow them.
After studying it for more than two hours, he briefly planned his route and ordered the troops to start from the continent beneath his feet.
His days in Chi Yan's territory had indeed been smooth sailing. Even if the Demon Race on some of the continents were curious about him, all he needed to do was show him their token and they will let him leave.
In less than two months, everything had been settled.
Even now, Yang Kai had yet to see any trace of the Flame Demon Half-Saint. Since the first day he had appeared, he had not seen him again.
His token was still in his possession, Yang Kai couldn’t take it with him. Helpless, he could only make a trip to the continent where the Holy City was located. On the one hand, he had to return the token, but on the other hand, he had to ask where he should go next.
He had a feeling that Chi Yan's Territory wasn’t the final destination, and he would definitely have to go to the next Demon Saint’s territory.
As expected, after finding the previous Half-Saint in the Holy City and returning his token, the other party called out to him without a word and followed him to the nearby World Gate.
After passing through several continents, they arrived at the territory of another Demon Saint. There was a Half-Saint waiting there, and after exchanging greetings, the Flame Demon Half-Saint turned around and left. This new Half-Saint had a good attitude and casually chatted with him for a while.
He then handed him a lot of information.
Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, Yang Kai couldn’t help muttering in his heart, ‘Could it be that I’ve run into another Bai Ya?’
However, if he insisted on following them, there was nothing he could do. After all, this was their territory.
Studying information, planning routes, and the like.
Two hours later, the work began.
The Half-Saint had indeed followed Yang Kai for a few days. Yang Kai had originally planned to use the method he used to deal with Bai Ya to deal with him, but after a few days, this fellow actually took the initiative to leave. Before he left, he left Yang Kai a token and told him to return the token to the Holy City after the matter was settled. It turned out that the other party had only followed him for a few days because he wanted to see something new, so he naturally left after seeing it.
