Yang Kai was a High-Rank Demon King, and although he had yet to reach the realm of the Word Law, it still depended on who he was facing.
His words contained the power of his Divine Sense, so how could this Demon Race, who was only at the True Yuan Stage, resist?
Sitting down, the Demon Race cultivator’s face became ashen. The other party didn’t even lift a finger and just said a few words, yet he was already unable to resist. He also understood that he was definitely not the other party’s opponent, so he could only sigh, “I still can’t hide.”
Yang Kai chuckled, “What are you hiding for?”
The Demon Race cultivator stiffened his neck and said, “Do it.” Saying so, he actually closed his eyes and put on a look of resignation. Facing this fellow in front of him was like an ant facing a giant dragon, unable to resist.
“Do you think I want to kill you?” Yang Kai looked at him with interest. Judging from the faint burning aura in this Demon Race’s body, it should be a Flame Demon.
“Is it not?” Flame Demon opened his eyes and frowned.
Yang Kai couldn’t be bothered to explain and simply said, “I want to ask you something. If you answer, I’ll spare your life. If you don’t, you’ll wish you were dead!”
Flame Demon, who had thought that there was still a chance of survival in this hopeless situation, felt his heart skip a beat and tactfully decided not to negotiate with Yang Kai. Instead, he simply said, “Ask away.”
“What happened to this continent? How did all the Demon Race on this continent die?”
“You don’t know?” Flame Demon was stunned. With such a big event happening on the continent, almost all of the Demon Race knew about it, so how could this guy not know?
“Do I need to ask you if I know?” Yang Kai’s expression became cold.
Flame Demon's heart skipped a beat when he saw Yang Kai’s expression, he didn’t dare delay and quickly explained what he knew.
The changes on this continent had begun ten years ago. Ten years ago, the Half Saint masters in charge of this continent had conscripted all the Demon Race cultivators who had reached the Demon Spirit Realm. The so-called Demon Spirit Realm corresponded to the cultivation of the Human Race’s Void Return Stage, giving them a total of three million troops.
Subsequently, the three million strong army split into ten groups and under the orders of the Half Saint, began slaughtering the remaining Demon Race.
All the Demon Race cultivators above the Demon Spirit Realm had been recruited, leaving behind only a few weaklings. Even if there were many of them, how could they be a match for this tiger and wolf?
For a whole eight years, the continent was covered in a bloody storm. The billions of living beings in it were all slaughtered, and all the demons slaughtered were buried.
Two years later, the world shook and the two worlds passage opened, resulting in the current situation.
Although the cultivation of this Flame Demon in front of him was low, he had managed to avoid a calamity because he had been cultivating in the underground magma at that time. When he came out of seclusion, he gradually understood the changes in the world, so he didn’t dare stay outside and immediately returned to his secluded place to hide.
When Yang Kai arrived, Gun Gun appeared and began devouring the world. Unable to hide any longer, he could only flee, but in the end, he was captured by Yang Kai.
After listening to his story, Yang Kai was surprised, “Are you saying that the Demon Race on this continent was killed by your own?”
Yan Mo frowned, thinking to himself, 'What do you mean by ‘your own’? Are you not from the Demon Race?' Seeing Yang Kai’s Demonic Qi, the Flame Demon had already determined that he was a member of the Demon Race, but his strength was too low, so he couldn’t see through this guy’s background.
“Yes!” Flame Demon nodded.
Yang Kai’s brow wrinkled. He had thought that some kind of natural disaster had occurred on this continent, causing the Demon Race to perish, but who would have thought that the truth would be like this? He wasn’t worried that this Flame Demon in front of him would lie to him. The difference in their Soul Cultivation was too great, so if the other party was lying, Yang Kai could easily see through it.
But… what was the purpose of the Demon Race’s actions? Why were they so crazy as to slaughter their own clansmen?
The Demon Race with Demon Spirit Realm and above cultivation had been recruited, presumably to form an army to enter the Star Boundary through the Two Worlds Passage. Although the remaining Demon Race couldn’t play any role on the battlefield, they were still the foundation of the Demon Race, so what was the reason for the Demon Race’s self-destruction?
Were they not afraid of being exterminated?
“A few days ago, when the world collapsed, I came out to take a look. All over the continent, a massive amount of Demonic Qi suddenly appeared and rushed towards that direction,” Flame Demon pointed in the direction Yang Kai had come from.
“Where did the Demonic Qi come from?” For some reason, Yang Kai suddenly thought of the Demon Race that had been killed in the Star Boundary. After they died, the Demonic Qi in their bodies would also disperse and drift towards the Two Worlds Passage, enriching the Demonic Qi in the Demon Land.
Flame Demon sighed, “It should be those clansmen who were killed. The Demonic Qi appeared from underground.”
Yang Kai suddenly realized that this explanation was quite reasonable. Just now, he had been wondering why the skeletons found in the Mysterious Small World didn’t have the slightest bit of Demonic Attribute. It turned out that the Demonic Qi and Demonic Attribute hidden inside them had all dispersed.
“Sir, why are the Saint Venerables doing this?” Flame Demon thought of Yang Kai as a Demon Race, and secretly felt that Yang Kai should be a Half Saint Demon Race, so he couldn’t help asking why such a huge change had occurred.
“We'll have to ask them,” Yang Kai replied, but he had already guessed the reason for this massacre. The Demon Saints had broken into the Star Boundary and used themselves as a bridge to connect the two worlds, but the bridge was just a bridge. If they wanted to completely open it, they would need other forces.
The Western Domain Battlefield had sacrificed millions of Demons for this purpose.
The Demon Race in the Western Domain Battlefield needed to die because the Demon Saints needed their Demonic Qi, so at the last moment, the Demon Race had gone crazy, lost their minds, and kill each other.
On the other hand, the Demon Territory Continent had long since prepared for this. The millions of Demon Race cultivators who had died had their bones buried deep in the ground, their Demonic Qi still condensed, waiting for the right time to emerge.
When the Demon Saints attacked, the Demonic Qi would break through the soil.
With both sides exerting their strength, the barrier between the two worlds was broken and the passage between the two worlds appeared. Because of the nourishment of the Demonic Qi, there were now 108 more passage and Demon Land in the Star Boundary.
The Demon Race had completely cut off their retreat and was now completely determined to fight to the death. Were they really so confident that they could take down the Star Boundary? Once they were defeated, even if they fled back to the Demon Territory, without the massive population as their foundation, it would be extremely difficult to recover.
Yang Kai’s expression became solemn as he faintly felt that the Demon Race was playing a big game, but the current situation was quite confusing, and the situation on the chessboard was completely unclear.
Flame Demon wanted to ask more, but Yang Kai had already reached out and grabbed him, putting him into the Mysterious Small World and tossing him into the Third Territory.
Flame Demon thought that Yang Kai had gone back on his word and wanted to attack him, so his face filled with despair. However, when he came back to his senses, he found that he was completely unharmed. Looking at the scene in front of him, he couldn’t help being stunned.
In the Third Territory, there were many Demon Race survivors, most of whom were residents of Yu Rueng, Bei Limo and Chang Tian's territories. There were no disputes in the Mysterious Small World, so these Demon Race had established many cities in the Third Territory and were living in peace.
The place where the Flame Demon had appeared was in the center of a city, and with so many clansmen living around it, he couldn’t help feeling as if he had been reborn, tears streaming down his face.
Yang Kai sat on Gun Gun head and formed a series of hand seals, his eyes closed as his Divine Sense surged. Combining all the information he had obtained, he began to calculate the Demon Race’s intentions.
Unfortunately, even after thinking so much, he still couldn’t find anything.
Although it was certain that the Demon Race was plotting something big, and that it was definitely detrimental to the Star Boundary, his intelligence was limited, so it was difficult to see the entire situation.
The sound of devouring stopped, and Gun Gun's huge body seemed to expand a little. Turning his head around, Yang Kai saw nothing but chaos.
The continent they were standing on had been completely devoured.
Yang Kai stood up, stamped his foot, and Gun Gun's body immediately shrank, transforming into the Mysterious Boundary Bead.
By the time he arrived at the next continent, it had already been several days, but Gun Gun still continue to devour. Just like the first continent, almost all of the Demon Race on this continent had died. Although Yang Kai had already expected this, after confirming this, he couldn’t help frowning.
When the two races fought, they became enemies with each other. Logically speaking, no matter how many of the Demon Race died, as a human, Yang Kai wouldn’t feel too much about it. In fact, he even think that the more Demon Race died, the better it is.
However, a battle on the battlefield was a battle on the battlefield. On the battlefield, no one would show mercy, only hating themselves for not killing enough, but in order to break through the barrier between the two worlds, the Demon Race had not hesitated to destroy their own foundation, causing great suffering to all living beings. This was somewhat difficult to accept.
However, after thinking about it for a while, he realized that the Demon Race’s actions were quite brutal. In order to deal with the Bright Moon Great Emperor, they had set up the Blood Sea Great Array and even sacrificed the entire Eternal Heaven Continent’s Demon Race. It wasn’t strange for the Demon Race to act like this.
In the future, if there was a chance to quell the war between the two worlds, he would have to carefully discuss it with Rumeng and the others. At the very least, they would have to restrain their subordinates.
While swallowing the entire continent, Yang Kai did not remain idle.
Now that the Star Boundary was filled with flames of war, the mobility requirements for the various Star Boundary armies were very high, so he wanted to use this rare opportunity to refine more World Beads.
As long as they had enough World Beads, the Star Boundary Army would be able to move like the wind, and at some point, they would be able to catch the Demon Race off guard.
Originally, when he refined the World Bead, he would choose the dead stars and large pieces of meteorite from the Lower Planes Star Field. The larger the dead stars and meteorite, the larger the space inside the World Bead.
However, now that he couldn’t leave, he naturally couldn’t go to the Lower Planes Star Field, so he could only think of a way to use the Mysterious Boundary Bead.
Fortunately, the Second Territory’s separation had given him plenty of experience, allowing him to calm down and think about it.
The First Territory couldn’t be moved, and besides the Medicine Garden, the rest of the First Territory was already overcrowded, so there wasn’t enough space to begin with, let alone strip it.
If that was the case, he could only start with the Third Territory. The Third Territory was formed by devouring the Demon Territory’s Continents and contained the World Laws of the Demon Territory. The Demon Race had no problem surviving in it, but if non Demon Race live in it, they would be corroded by the Demonic Qi and become a demon. Those with insufficient mental fortitude would most likely lose all sense of self and abandon their family.
