From ancient times until now, the four directions were known as universes, and the mysteries of the universe were the mysteries of space and time, containing profound mysteries. Although Yang Kai had some attainments in the Space Laws, he only had a basic understanding of space and time. Only catching a glimpse at the door with the Time Flies Seal.
The scene here involved space and time, so he couldn’t tell if it was real or fake.
After the third ‘him’ finished speaking, he suddenly turned around and shouted, “The Wind Monarch is here, let’s go!”
As he spoke, he grabbed Yang Kai’s arm and flew towards a nearby crack. Just as he was about to enter the crack, the third ‘him’ hurriedly said, “The power of the hourglass in the Wind Monarch’s hand is immeasurable, be careful…”
After rushing into the crack, Yang Kai once again became alone. He had clearly rushed in with the third ‘him’, but after entering, he had disappeared.
However, when he looked around, Yang Kai’s expression changed.
It was because this hall had finally become different from before. Previously, he had come to this hall several times, but this time, it was filled with cracks, but this time, there weren’t so many strange scenes.
Yang Kai let out a sigh of relief. If the scene just now had been repeated over again, he really wouldn’t have known how to respond. Now that there were changes, it was best.
The main hall was empty, with no signs of life or battle. On both sides of the hall, there were two side entrances. Yang Kai used his Divine Sense to investigate but found nothing, so he simply walked out of the hall.
The outside of the hall was connected to a corridor with rooms on both sides. The corridor was very long and one couldn’t see the end of it. The floor beneath the feet was flowing with a strange color, making it seem quite strange.
Yang Kai came to the nearest room and waited intently before pushing open the door and carefully examining it. There was nothing in the room, so naturally there was no one there.
Checking the rooms one by one, he found nothing.
Moreover, with the investigation, Yang Kai couldn’t even feel the passage of time in this place. It could be said that tens or even hundreds of years had passed, or that time had stopped flowing.
This trip to the Passing of Time Temple was completely different from last time.
After searching through countless rooms, Yang Kai pushed open the door to one of the rooms and his eyes lit up.
The room was finally not empty. There was actually a ferocious beast lying inside. At first glance, it looked like a fierce tiger with two horns and wings on its back.
This giant beast didn’t know anything about Yang Kai’s arrival, and the sound it made was like thunder. Who else could it be but Qiong Qi?
Yang Kai stepped forward happily and called out, “Old Qiong, Old Qiong!”
After calling out a few times, Qiong Qi still didn’t respond, causing Yang Kai to frown. Qiong Qi was a Holy Spirit after all, and his strength was extremely great. Not to mention just sleeping, even if he was cultivating in seclusion, if someone were to barge in, he would immediately wake up.
However, after calling out to him a few times, he didn’t respond! This was a bit strange.
Shouting was useless, so Yang Kai immediately stepped forward and patted its head, but to no avail. It was as if Qiong Qi had really fallen asleep, his snoring never stopping.
With a few loud bangs, Yang Kai punched its head a few times. The force wasn’t light, nor was it heavy, but it was enough to wake it up from its slumber. However, the truth shocked Yang Kai. After taking a few punches, Qiong Qi still didn’t move.
This made Yang Kai a bit frightened. Even this method couldn’t awaken Qiong Qi, what was wrong with him?
Moreover, Qiong Qi was clearly leading Liu Yan, Yang Xiao and Yang Xue into the Four Seasons Land, but now he was alone, while Yang Xiao, Yang Xue and Liu Yan were nowhere to be seen.
Unable to awaken Qiong Qi, Yang Kai wanted to put it into the Mysterious Small World, but after several attempts, he was unable to succeed. It was just that Qiong Qi’s body was wrapped in a layer of invisible energy, causing Yang Kai’s Divine Sense to be unable to do anything to it. If he didn’t open this layer of invisible energy, he wouldn’t be able to put him into the Mysterious Small World.
After a while, Yang Kai shook his head helplessly and gave up.
Although Qiong Qi was sound asleep, there was nothing wrong with him, so there was no need to worry.
Moreover, since he could find Qiong Qi here, he should also be able to find Liu Yan and the others. Yang Kai immediately sped up his search and began searching the rooms.
Inside the Passing of Time Temple, the passage of time was an extremely vague concept. Even someone as strong as Yang Kai couldn’t tell how much time had passed before he finally found Liu Yan in another room.
Liu Yan didn’t change much, still looking like a little girl, but just like Qiong Qi, she had fallen into a deep sleep, curled up on the floor of a room, sleeping soundly.
After trying his best, Liu Yan was indeed unable to be awakened and was in the same situation as Qiong Qi.
First it was Qiong Qi, then it was Liu Yan, who knew what they had encountered after entering the Four Seasons Land.
Yang Kai thought he would be able to find Yang Xiao and Yang Xue again, but after searching through all the rooms, he found no trace of them.
At the end of the long corridor was another hall.
Entering this place, Yang Kai’s mind was once again in a daze, because this hall was exactly the same as the one he was in before, causing him to think he had returned to his original place.
But there was someone here!
Dressed like a scholar, he looked like a teacher.
Demonic Heavenly Dao, one of the four Great Monarch Envoys under the Dao Master, Wind Monarch.
This Wind Monarch was in perfect condition, and all of his previous injuries had been completely healed. At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on a high platform in the hall, which was covered in a translucent light curtain.
An extremely obvious fluctuation of the Time Laws flowed out from the light curtain. At this moment, the Wind Monarch had closed his eyes and was probably healing himself, completely unaware of Yang Kai’s arrival.
Yang Kai narrowed his eyes and stared at him for a moment before taking a deep breath. As he exhaled, his Demonic Qi surged and his battle intent soared.
Even though he had run into three of “him” and was being chased by the Wind Monarch, even though one of the "him" had told him to hurry up and find Yang Xiao, the situation inside the Passing of Time Temple was extremely strange. If he wanted to break out of this situation, the only way was to attack the Wind Monarch.
Therefore, Yang Kai decisively took action.
His figure flickered and disappeared in an instant. When he reappeared, he was already above the Wind Monarch’s head, his cultivation wrapped around the Million Sword as he slashed down.
The barrier covering the high platform was the work of a Great Emperor, so how could Yang Kai possibly break it? When the sword slashed down, the barrier immediately caved in but was unable to break.
However, due to this disturbance, the Wind Monarch who was meditating and healing suddenly opened his eyes.
As their eyes met, the Wind Monarch grinned maliciously, “There’s a road to heaven you don’t want to take, but there’s a road to hell you insist on breaking through. Good!”
Raising his hand, it passed through the barrier of light and grabbed the Million Sword in his hand. As he pushed his Emperor Qi, the violent force of his attack was repelled.
Yang Kai simply let go of the Million Sword and tossed it away. As his Divine Sense surged, his left eye transformed into a majestic golden vertical eye that shot out from his eye and into the Wind Monarch’s Knowledge Sea.
As soon as the Life Lotus appeared, the Wind Monarch’s body shook. Although his strength was great, his Soul cultivation was slightly inferior to Yang Kai’s, so he had been caught off guard.
The pure white lotus flower took root in the Wind Monarch's Knowledge Sea and began absorbing his Divine Soul. Wind Monarch let out a muffled groan as the sea water in his Knowledge Sea churned and roared, resisting the power of the Secret Technique.
Halfway through the Life Lotus Blossoming, it was no longer able to do anything. In the end, he was not a soft persimmon that could be easily kneaded, and although he had managed to catch him off guard, he was still unable to accomplish his goal.
Wind Monarch sneered, but just as he was about to ridicule him, his expression changed again.
This was because the half blooming lotus suddenly expanded, and in his eyes, the lotus was incomparably huge, wrapping around his entire body before quickly closing!
The Life Lotus's Raging Lotus appeared, the two great Soul Secret Techniques appearing one after the other. Yang Kai attacked decisively.
“Break!” The Wind Monarch’s Divine Sense roared as it broke through the lotus seal and escaped.
Caught off guard, a blade light slashed down!
Soul Slaying Blade, Heavens Breaker Strike!
Since he had the Life Lotus and Raging Lotus, how could he lack the power of the Soul Slaying Blade?
This time, the Wind Monarch was unable to block it and was struck by the Soul Slaying Blade. Having his Divine Soul cut didn’t feel good at all, and his face immediately distorted as his Emperor Qi burst out like a tsunami. [Hoogsway: IDK why author use Emperor Qi, it should probably be Demonic Qi.]
The world trembled as Yang Kai was sent flying.
In mid-air, Yang Kai’s face paled slightly, but he still forcefully activated his Space Laws and rushed towards the Wind Monarch again. At the same time, his hands quickly formed a series of hand seals, and as they spun, the Mountain River Bell appeared and descended towards the Wind Monarch.
Yang Kai shout again, “Dragon Transformation!”
As a loud dragon roar rang out, golden light flashed and a series of crackling sounds rang out. Dragon scales covered his entire body, his forehead was filled with two horns, and his hands had transformed into sharp dragon claws. His body was slightly taller than three zhang, and behind his back, a dragon tail swung.
In a flash, Yang Kai had transformed into a half-dragon.
While the Wind Monarch was still in a daze from being injured by the Soul Slaying Blade, Yang Kai had already pounced in front of him, his two dragon claws grabbing onto his arms and firmly holding him down. In the next instant, the Mountain River Bell had already descended from the sky!
In terms of cultivation, Yang Kai estimated that he wasn’t the Wind Monarch’s opponent, and the three “him” from the beginning had all suffered the same fate, so Yang Kai didn’t plan to compete with the Wind Monarch in terms of cultivation.
He had his own area of expertise.
This was the physique of a half dragon, something that the Wind Monarch could never compare to. As long as he could limit the battlefield to a small area and engage in close combat, it was not impossible to defeat this guy.
As a result, Yang Kai decided to trap him inside the Mountain River Bell. The last time he had killed a Half-Saint called Yin Si in the Demon Territory, although he had also lost half his life, it was better than giving the Wind Monarch a chance to display his full strength.
Yang Kai’s methods were endless, and with this sudden change, the Wind Monarch had also suffered a loss. Moreover, the Wind Monarch had long heard of the Mountain River Bell’s name. This was the defining treasure of the Yuan Ding Great Emperor, so if he was really trapped, it was likely he wouldn’t be able to escape.
So when he saw the Primordial Artifact, Wind Monarch knew what Yang Kai was planning.
