In just a thousand feet, more than a thousand Bi Fang had died under the hands of these two, but just like the Fire Qilin, these Bi Fang had been killed endlessly. Let alone a thousand, even if they killed ten thousand, it would be useless.
However, with this sudden burst of speed, they arrived below the fire cloud.
Yang Kai swung his sword through the air, his sword light flashing brilliantly as he charged forward bravely. Bai Zhuo stood guard behind him, and with a wave of his hand, he eliminated all the attackers.
The fire clouds continued to churn, but the burning flames were unable to block the dazzling cold light.
In the next instant, the flame cloud broke, and Yang Kai and Bai Zhuo soared into the sky.
Above the Nine Heavens, there was still a fiery cloud, connecting heaven and earth, never ending! The two of them rushed forward without stopping.
After an unknown amount of time, after killing countless Bi Fangs, Yang Kai’s figure came to a halt. Seeing this, Bai Zhuo also immediately stopped and activated his Demonic Qi to protect himself.
In the magma below, Yang Kai’s Embodiment quickly called out to Bai Ya, “Let’s go!”
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure returned to its human size, and he lifted his Demon Artifact War Hammer and rushed into the sky.
The Qilin behind him chased after him relentlessly.
Entering the Fire Cloud and meeting the Bi Fang group, the Fire Qilins finally stopped. It was as if the sky and earth were two different domains. The Fire Qilins only cared about the earth while the Bi Fang dealt with the enemies in the sky.
Fire Qiling and Bi Fang couldn’t stop Yang Kai and Bai Zhuo, but neither could they stop the Embodiment and Bai Ya. A moment later, the two sides met up.
“Five minutes!” The Embodiment spoke on Yang Kai’s behalf. Hearing this, Bai Ya and Bai Zhuo nodded and the three Half-Saints spread out to surround Yang Kai and protect him.
Yang Kai’s eyes were tightly shut as he stood in place, motionless, but anyone could feel the Space Laws emanating from his body. These Laws weren’t strong, but they seemed to stretch out in all directions as if they were searching for something.
What else could he be looking for? Naturally, he was looking for the weak point of this world’s barrier.
This place was one of the countless Small Worlds in the Universe Tower, so if he wanted to leave, he would have to break through the barrier of this Small World. Yang Kai had searched the ground but had not found any flaws, so he could only continue searching in the sky.
Even though Yang Kai’s attainments in the Space Laws were not weak, breaking through the blockade of a small world was not an easy task. However, every world had its own weak point, such as the Star Boundary. The place where the World Entrance existed was the weak point of the Star Boundary's World Barrier, which was why it gave the Demon Race an opportunity to open up a passage connecting the two worlds.
Even a great world like the Star Boundary had weak points, let alone a small world.
With good luck, Yang Kai had already discovered something, but he still needed some time. The most important thing was that this world wasn’t big, so Yang Kai was able to easily find it. If he were to enter a large-scale Small World, it would probably take some effort. As the Space Laws filled the air, Yang Kai’s mind was like a sharp blade, and as he used the Space Laws to cut into that weak point, he slowly opened up a small gap.
The three Half-Saints beside him went crazy. The Bi Fang was condensed from World Energy and was not afraid of death or pain. It was a cycle of life and death.
The Embodiment were a bit better off. He is born with the physique of a Stone Puppet and had obtained the Stone Fire Source, so even if he exerted so much strength, he wouldn’t feel tired. Bai Zhuo and Bai Ya, on the other hand, used only a portion of their strength, but at this moment, they didn’t dare to hold back. Each of their attacks was executed with all their strength, so in this state, it was impossible to maintain them for long.
Fortunately, it only took an incense stick to burn of time!
If it were just a few days, the two Half-Saints wouldn’t even know if they could survive.
As they fought, they also paid attention to Yang Kai’s movements. As time passed, the originally weak fluctuations of the Space Laws gradually became stronger. Obviously, Yang Kai had made some progress.
Sure enough, after the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Yang Kai, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes. The fluctuations of the Space Laws were extremely strong, and the space around him began to ripple.
His eyes flashed as his hands formed a blade and stabbed forward.
Strangely, when this pair of hands reached out, it disappeared into the void.
In the next moment, Yang Kai’s eyes bulged as his Demonic Qi erupted like a tsunami and he shouted, “Open!”
As these words rang out, his hands suddenly tore towards the sides.
The sky was like a piece of fine silk being torn apart, and as the world buzzed, a crack slowly appeared in front of them. This crack was pitch black, and as Yang Kai moved, it grew larger until it eventually became a dozen meters long and ten meters wide.
Yang Kai turned around and called out to the three Half Saints, “Let’s go!”
This damned place was simply inhumane. Now that the World Barrier had been broken, it was naturally best to leave quickly.
Without any hesitation, Bai Ya and Bai Zhuo used their Secret Techniques to cut down the enemies on their left and right. Their figures floated back to Yang Kai’s side, the Embodiment swept out and also retreated.
Yang Kai summoned his Demon Qi and wrapped them up before diving into the crack.
When he reappeared, he was in another world.
Not far away, a monster covered in long fur was clutching its abdomen, staring at Yang Kai and the others in horror before turning around and fleeing. Yang Kai recognized that it was this monster who had swallowed him in one gulp before entering the Sea of Fire World. However, at this moment, there was a foot-long wound where the monster’s hand had touched. What flowed out of the wound was not blood, but flames, the flames of that small world!
Bai Zhuo and Bai Ya didn’t understand what was happening and wanted to kill this monster, but Yang Kai quickly stopped them.
“What is this?” Bai Zhuo saw the monster escape and frowned. He was from the Demon Territory’s Demon Race and thought that this monster was unique to the Star Boundary, but he had never seen such a creature before.
“That small world,” Yang Kai also frowned.
“Small World?” Bai Zhuo stared at him in shock, “Brother Yang, you mean that Small World has already formed its Spirit?”
“It should be,” Yang Kai nodded. If it weren’t for that, he wouldn’t have been swallowed by the Long Fur Monster and entered that small world. After he tore open the Space Barrier and came out, the monster’s abdomen had a wound, which meant that the Long Fur Monster was a manifestation of the previous small world.
“How is this possible?” Bai Zhuo and Bai Ya were both shocked. Forming a World Spirit was something they had never even heard of before. If this was the case, could the Demon Territory and Star Boundary also form a World Spirit? If that day really came, wouldn’t the Demon Race and Human Race live in the belly of a living being?
“Nothing is impossible. Have you forgotten about my Mysterious Boundary BEad?”
Bai Zhuo was stunned for a moment before remembering that the Mysterious Boundary Bead could also take a form. They had seen it with their own eyes, so they were relieved.
“Moreover, there’s an unforeseen event occurring here, so I can’t tell what it is exactly, but what we're seeing right now is indeed a small world’s Spirit Shape.”
It was precisely because the Long Fur Monster was formed from a small world and was covered by the World Energy that Yang Kai had not been able to see its true strength at first and was swallowed by it.
However, from the looks of it, this long fur monster didn’t have much intelligence and only had some instincts. Otherwise, with its Small World Spirit Shape power, they wouldn’t have been able to escape so easily.
Yang Kai didn’t know what had happened inside the Universe Tower, nor did he know what Lan Xun had done inside, nor did he know where Lan Xun was or what she had encountered.
However, encountering such a dangerous situation as soon as he entered, Yang Kai couldn’t help feeling somewhat anxious. He had to find Lan Xun as soon as possible and see if he could help her solve this problem. At the very least, he had to take her away from here.
He was already blaming himself for not being able to take Ming Yue away from the Demon Territory. If he couldn’t even take Lan Xun away now, all his years of cultivation would have been in vain.
Taking in the three Half-Saints, Yang Kai walked forward alone.
He remembered that the Five Colored Pagoda had a total of five floors, each of which allowed cultivators with different cultivations to enter and temper themselves. If Lan Xun wanted to refine the Universe Tower, she would have to go to the core of this artifact, which should be above the fifth floor.
However, Yang Kai was unable to find the way to the next layer, as if this was the only layer left in the entire Universe Tower.
Along the way, he encountered all kinds of fierce monsters, all of them formed from small worlds. These monsters all had different temperaments, some were as timid as mice, and when they saw Yang Kai, they immediately ran away, while others were as fierce as the long fur monster. When they saw Yang Kai, they would pounce and attack him.
Yang Kai avoided them as much as he could, but fortunately, his Space Ability allowed him to avoid many battles.
However, if one often walked by the river, how could they not wet their shoes? Not all Small Worlds had transformed into ferocious monsters, and some Small Worlds had even transformed into a stone that looked completely normal. When Yang Kai passed by it, the stone suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed him, causing him to fall into a strange Small World and have to find a way to escape.
Some of these small worlds were strong, some were weak, some were as strong as the Long Fur Monster he had encountered for the first time. Yang Kai had to summon the three Half-Saint Protectors, with the weak ones, he could break through the World Barrier with a single thought and escape.
Both Bai Ya and Bai Zhuo were exhausted. Although they were strong, they couldn’t endure the constant fighting. Every time they were taken back into the Mysterious Boundary Bead, they would quickly rest and recover, preparing to fight the next battle at any time.
But without exception, Yang Kai didn’t do anything to these small worlds.
Any Small World or Secret Realm here was the treasure of the Universe Tower, something left behind by the Great Emperor for Lan Xun. He would not destroy it, much less snatch it.
After several days, there were no clues at all, causing Yang Kai’s heart to burn with anxiety. The longer he delayed, the more dangerous it would be for Lan Xun.
On this day, while searching, Yang Kai suddenly stopped and turned his head to look in a certain direction, only to see a small figure standing atop a hill, quietly looking over.
It was a little girl who looked like she was only five or six years old. Her hair was tied into two pigtails and she wore a beautiful little dress. Her eyes were big and bright, like they were carved from jade.
Yang Kai frowned. This was the second time he had encountered this little girl.
Although the other party’s appearance was small, Yang Kai didn’t show the slightest bit of contempt, because in this Universe Tower, everything that could move freely was a small world's Spirit.
The stone was like this, the Long Fur monster was like this, and so was this little girl.
When he had met her yesterday, the little girl had also been observing from afar, but Yang Kai had been vigilant and had avoided her. He hadn’t expected to run into her again today.
It couldn’t be a coincidence, they were being followed!
