Day after day, Yang Kai led his ten thousand army across the various continents like a repairman, repairing the Demon Territory’s World Gates. The various Demon Saints were all very interested in this matter, so almost every time they arrived, a Half-Saint would step forward and arrange everything for him. All he needed to do was plan his route and repair the continents one by one.
As he walked the Demon Saints territories, the Mysterious Small Boundary had swallowed nearly twenty missing continents and expanded its domain to an unimaginable degree. Even Yang Kai had obtained thousands of Myriad Demon Pills, so the amount needed for the Embodiment to advance to the Half-Saint Realm was more than enough, but it would still take some time.
One day, when ten thousand army were marching forward, Yang Kai suddenly stopped and looked up.
Everyone behind him also stopped and looked over curiously.
Tu Qialuo observed his surroundings for a moment, but seeing nothing out of the ordinary, he couldn’t help asking, “Great King, what happened?”
Yang Kai ignored him and simply stared at a certain spot in the sky with a deep frown, his eyes seemingly able to pierce through space.
“Oh, you actually found me?” At the same time a voice rang out, a figure suddenly appeared in the air a thousand meters in front of Yang Kai. This person was a male, but he was somewhat different from the other Demon Race youths Yang Kai had seen before. This guy had a horn on his forehead, one finger long, two fingers thick, and curved upwards like a rhinoceros’ horn. He was also tall and burly.
This appearance surprised Yang Kai somewhat. Although there were a hundred races in the Demon Territory, each one of them had a different appearance and characteristics, this was the first time he had seen someone with a horn on their forehead.
Where did this guy come from?
However, no matter what his identity was, his strength was not to be underestimated. Just now, Yang Kai only felt that there was some discord in front of him, but in fact, he hadn’t found any trace of him. If he hadn’t taken the initiative to expose himself, it was likely he would have needed to advance a little further to see through him.
This was definitely a Half-Saint!
Yang Kai was bewildered, but Tu Qialuo, Yin, and the others all quickly circulated their Demonic Qi and stared at him vigilantly. Bo Ya also drew her bow and nocked her arrow, her Divine Sense surging as she locked onto the Half-Saint in front of her.
Yang Kai glanced around and felt even more puzzled. What were these guys up to? He had seen many Half-Saints these past few days, but he had never seen them so nervous. Could it be that this guy in front of him had some kind of special background?
Just as he was thinking this, Bo Ya secretly sent him a message, “Be careful, this guy is from the Hundred Spirits Continent.”
Hundred Spirits Continent? Hearing this, Yang Kai frowned and thought about it for a moment before remembering that he had indeed seen this continent on the map. Nodding slightly, he asked, “Which Demon Saint’s territory is Hundred Spirits Continent?”
The Hundred Spirits Continent was still quite far from here, so he would need to pass through at least five World Gates to reach it. Now that a Half-Saint from the Hundred Spirits Continent had suddenly come to intercept him, Yang Kai couldn’t help thinking that the Demon Saint from the Hundred Spirits Continent was a bit too anxious. In any case, he would definitely repair the World Gates sooner or later, so there was no need to do so, right?
Bo Ya glanced at Yang Kai speechlessly and replied, “The Hundred Spirits Continent is not the territory of any Demon Saint.”
Hearing this, Yang Kai was startled and turned his head, “What do you mean?”
Bo Ya’s expression became solemn, “Your Star Boundary has Holy Spirits, and the Demon Territory also has Holy Spirits. These Holy Spirits have been passed down for a long time, some of them were born when the Demon Territory first existed, and all of them are extremely powerful. Although the Saint Venerable have divided ninety-nine percent of the Demon Territory’s territory, there is still a continent occupied by these Holy Spirits that is not under the jurisdiction of any of the Saint Venerable. This is the Hundred Spirits Continent, and the master of the Hundred Spirits Continent is an existence not inferior to the twelve Saint Venerable!”
Yang Kai listened with a look of surprise. In this Demon Territory, there was actually a master comparable to the twelve Demon Saints? But thinking about it, it wasn’t strange. There was still Dragon Island in the Star Boundary, and the Dragon Race’s Great Elder and Second Elder were comparable to Great Emperors. The growth of Holy Spirits was not restricted by the World Bottles because they had their own bloodline inheritance and didn’t require the approval of the World Energy.
“This guy should be a Holy Spirit, he must be here for you. The World Gate on the Hundred Spirits Continent also has some problems.”
Hearing this, Yang Kai nodded slightly and said, “Then I’m guessing that the relationship between this Hundred Spirits Continent’s master and the various Saint Venerable isn’t very good.” If their relationship was harmonious, there was no need to send people to intercept him here. As long as the other Demon Saints say it, Yang Kai would naturally go over.
Bo Ya couldn’t help rolling her eyes, “It’s already so late, yet you still have the mood to joke around.”
“Do you want me to cry for you?” Yang Kai sneered.
He was only a Half-Saint, so although he was powerful, there was no need for him to fear him. Although his Embodiment was still a distance away from becoming a Half-Saint, if he were to join forces with Yang Kai, even if Yang Kai couldn’t defeat him, Yang Kai wouldn’t be completely helpless.
Back in the Star Boundary, the battle with Cang Mo was the best example. Cang Mo was also a Half-Saint, but in the Star Boundary, everyone called him a Pseudo Emperor.
Bo Ya continued, “The uniqueness of the Hundred Spirits Continent is difficult to explain in a few words, but you’re right, the relationship between the Master of this continent and the Saint Venerable is not very good, but it’s not to the point where they can shed all pretenses. You are the man of Saint Yu Rumeng, so he may not dare to do anything to you.”
Yang Kai glanced over at her and secretly cursed his bad luck. After arriving in the Demon Territory, he had actually become a gigolo who had to rely on Yu Rumeng’s prestige.
While he was conversing with Bo Ya, the horned Holy Spirit didn’t disturb him. Only when their Divine Senses calmed down did he ask with a smile, “Are you that human?”
Yang Kai chuckled, “If there are no other humans in the Demon Territory, it’s me.”
“Very good, come with me,” The horned Holy Spirit nodded and said in an unquestionable tone.
Yang Kai immediately wore a look of disgust on his face. If the other party was being polite, he might have been able to make a trip. In any case, he had traveled to so many continents recently, so adding another Hundred Spirits Continent wouldn’t be a big deal. However, seeing this fellow put on such an act, Yang Kai felt a little repulsed.
Helping you repair the World Gate was a favor, not helping you is my choice, so why did i have to go with you? It was really a waste of breath, so Yang Kai slowly shook his head and said, “This King is a Great King under the command of Saint Yu Rumeng. If Sir wishes to invite this King, you must ask Saint Yu Rumeng. Only after the Saint Venerable has spoken will this King be able to move, otherwise this King will be powerless to do anything.” Not wanting to waste any more time talking to him, Yang Kai raised his hand and said, “If there’s nothing else, please step aside. This King still has important matters to attend to and cannot be delayed for too long.”
The Horned Holy Spirit naturally wouldn’t back down and grinned at him, “I advise you to obediently come with me. It’s less painful to resist, don’t you think?”
Yang Kai narrowed his eyes and asked, “Does Your Excellency mean to declare war on this King? I wonder if Your Excellency can withstand the wrath of Saint Yu Rumeng?”
The Single-Horned Holy Spirit chuckled lightly, “The title of Saint Venerable can intimidate anyone but my Hundred Spirits Continent!”
Huh, this was a rebellion! No wonder the relationship between the Hundred Spirits Continent’s Master and the other Demon Saints wasn’t good. Such a disobedient group was probably not welcomed by any Demon Saint.
Why hadn’t the Demon Saints joined forces to destroy this continent? Even the Bright Moon Great Emperor had been forced into a corner by them. If the Demon Saints had really joined forces, this Hundred Spirits Continent would have been long gone.
However, after thinking about it again, Yang Kai understood why the Hundred Spirits Continent was able to survive in such a narrow gap.
Not to mention that the master of the Hundred Spirits Continent was an existence no weaker than a Demon Saint, even if the twelve Demon Saints joined forces, they would not be able to defeat this fat piece of meat. On the contrary, they might even be able to force the Hundred Spirits Continent into a corner. If this continent were to submit to another Demon Saint, it would only increase their strength.
Of course, there were too many things involved, so Yang Kai could only think of this one possibility. But no matter what, the Hundred Spirits Continent being able to exist in the Demon Territory had its own reasons!
The One Horned Holy Spirit seemed to have no patience, and after saying this, it shouted, “Ten breaths of time, consider carefully, don’t disappoint me!”
Yang Kai looked up at the sky, his nostrils flaring.
This action caused the Holy Spirit’s mouth to twitch…
However, he kept his word and said ten breaths of time. When the time was up, a thick Demonic Qi surged out from his body and he smiled lightly, “Since you won’t cooperate, we can only use force!”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and grabbed towards Yang Kai. As he did so, the World Energy in his body surged and a giant hand condensed from pitch-black Demon Qi slowly formed and grabbed towards Yang Kai.
The expressions of Bo Ya and the others changed drastically as they all attacked, even Li Shiqing gritting her teeth and releasing a rain of flowers, each petal containing terrifying killing intent.
However, although they had a large number of people and their strength was not bad, facing a Half-Saint, their strength was still insufficient. When all of their attacks landed on the Demonic Qi Hand, they only caused ripples before disappearing.
Yang Kai didn’t seem to be on guard at all, only sneering slightly as he took a step forward, as if he wanted to die.
The horned Holy Spirit was stunned, not knowing what Yang Kai was up to. Although his attack didn’t have any intention of taking Yang Kai’s life, it was still quite powerful. If it really hit Yang Kai like this, with his cultivation only equal to a Mid-Rank Demon King, there was no way he could survive.
He had come here this time to bring Yang Kai back to the Hundred Spirits Continent, not to kill him. If he really killed Yang Kai, it would definitely anger most of the Demon Saints, so he couldn’t bear the responsibility.
As this thought flashed across his mind, he quickly withdrew his strength.
However, Yang Kai still didn’t have the slightest intention to defend himself, instead opening his arms wide as if he was welcoming death.
'Is there something wrong with this guy’s head?' The horned Holy Spirit’s face was filled with confusion. It was too late for it to stop now. Just as the human in front of it was about to be hit, a terrifying aura suddenly spread out and a slender figure appeared in front of Yang Kai, raising a white palm and gently slapping it.
The black Demonic Qi hand instantly disappeared.
Looking at Xiao Wu standing in front of him, Yang Kai smiled.
