His damaged Soul had yet to be completely repaired, so no matter how powerful the Soul Warming Lotus was, it would still take some time for it to fully display its effects. However, the Martial Dao True Intent that had been washed away gradually remained in Yang Kai’s Knowledge Sea, waiting for him to absorb and comprehend it.
Without any hesitation, Yang Kai stepped into the Ancient Battlefield. Just like before, the surrounding power of time wrapped around him, causing him to feel a sense of time chaos.
However, the last time he had come here, he had been distracted by the power of time, so it had been quite inconvenient. Now that his main body was here, his resistance was naturally incomparable.
At the very least, he didn’t feel like his thoughts had stagnated.
Moving forward step by step, it took less than an incense stick’s worth of time to cover a distance of a thousand meters. Yang Kai raised his brow slightly, it had taken him a full day to cover this distance.
The various advantages of his main body arriving here could be seen.
Yang Kai didn’t advance any further because he knew that if he took another step forward, the two forces entangled in the Ancient Battlefield would definitely wreak havoc on him again. His damaged Soul had yet to be repaired, so he naturally had to wait until it was repaired before making any further plans. Entering the Ancient Battlefield was just to buy more time to cultivate.
After calculating the distance, Yang Kai sat down cross-legged and allowed the Soul Warming Lotus to repair his Soul while comprehending the pure power in his Knowledge Sea and absorbing the Martial Dao True Intent of the two masters.
A few days later, Yang Kai’s damaged Soul had been fully restored, and after this calamity, Yang Kai’s powerful Soul had been strengthened slightly. Although it wasn’t much, it was enough to support his many days of bitter cultivation.
When Yang Kai’s Soul was restored, he had completely comprehended the essence in his Knowledge Sea. These two different forces were originally of different attributes, so it was impossible for them to completely fuse together. However, under the cleansing of the Soul Warming Lotus, their appearance had completely disappeared, leaving behind only the purest Martial Dao True Intent, allowing Yang Kai to absorb them together.
As the saying goes, all paths lead to the same destination.
His originally pitch-black Knowledge Sea now had a little bit of golden light. In this pitch-black environment, it was insignificant, but it was also extremely eye-catching, just like a raging fire that would one day ignite a monstrous flame.
Yang Kai stood up and found that his thoughts were clear and without any obstructions. Although the power of time was still flowing around him, it no longer had any effect on his body. He knew that this was the benefit of comprehending and absorbing the Martial Dao True Intent.
However, this was only the periphery of the Ancient Battlefield, and the residual power of time laws here were the weakest. If he were to go deeper, it would likely be a different scene.
Taking a step forward, just as Yang Kai had expected, after taking the first step, two majestic forces immediately appeared beside him. It was the power of Passing of Time Great Emperor and another force.
Previously, he was using a wisp of spirit and was afraid that he would encounter some kind of accident, so Yang Kai didn’t have a clear understanding of what was happening. But now that he carefully examined it, he found that the other force contained a deep Demonic Attribute and was secretly compatible with his Demonic Qi.
The more he thought about it, the more certain he was that even if the Great Demon God wasn’t the one who had fought to the death with the Passing of Time Great Emperor on this battlefield, he was still one of the Demon Territory’s masters.
Enlightenment filled his heart. No wonder he was able to comprehend and absorb the Martial Dao True Intents of these two. He had originally thought that this was a gift from the Heavens, but now he realized that this gift was not something anyone could eat.
Although he hadn’t obtained the inheritance of the Passing of Time Great Emperor, he had at least cultivated the Time Flies Seal and had a superficial understanding of the Time Laws. With this foundation, he could naturally comprehend and absorb the Martial Dao True Intent of the Passing of Time Great Emperor.
For the same reason, when he had broken through to the High-Rank Demon King Realm, he had been influenced by the Demon Territory’s World Laws and had become a Demon. His Emperor Qi had transformed into Demonic Qi, and only when the Soul Warming Lotus protected the last bit of clarity in his Knowledge Sea did he not truly become a part of the Demon Race.
He could already be considered half a Demon Race! That was why he was able to comprehend and absorb the Martial Dao True Intent of this Demon Race master.
Everything seemed to be a coincidence, but who could say whether it was a fortuitous encounter or a result of Heaven’s will? This is Yang Kai, if it was anyone else who came here, they probably wouldn’t be able to obtain any benefits and would instead be corrupted by this Martial Dao True Intent, ruining their cultivation.
Even if Yang Xiao and Yang Xue came here, they would only be able to absorb a portion of the Martial Dao True Intent belonging to the Passing of Time Great Emperor, so there was no way they would be able to do anything to that Demon Race master. If they were unable to comprehend and absorb it, it would naturally affect their temperament.
After understanding this point, Yang Kai couldn’t help smiling as he continued forward.
Previously, when Yang Kai’s Soul Avatar came here, it was somewhat unqualified as a carrier, so Yang Kai could only endure for a moment before quickly withdrawing. Now that his true body had arrived, this carrier was much stronger than a mere Soul Avatar.
If his previous avatar was just a small pond, his current true body was like a lake and could withstand much more. Although he still couldn’t withstand the torment of the two dragons, Yang Kai wasn’t dead, so he naturally had to grasp his limits.
Five hundred zhang!
The strength of the host, in addition to the Martial Dao True Intent Yang Kai had previously absorbed, allowed Yang Kai to move forward five hundred zhang before he had no choice but to stop. At this point, he could no longer move forward, and if he tried to force his way forward, he would suffer irreparable injuries.
The pain of his soul being torn apart and his physical body being torn apart was unbearable, causing him to tremble uncontrollably as golden blood seeped out from all the pores on his body. Yang Kai grit his teeth and clenched his fists, his face becoming somewhat terrifying.
The Soul Warming Lotus was already emitting a seven colored light, constantly repairing his damaged Soul. With the Soul Warming Lotus, Yang Kai didn’t need to worry about his Soul dissipating.
Feeling it silently, his Soul had yet to reach its limit, but his physical body had reached its limit.
This was also normal. Because of Yu Rumeng, his Soul had already surpassed the Half-Saint Realm, but his body was only at the High-Rank Demon King Realm, the gap between them was simply too great.
After pondering for a moment, Yang Kai let out a low roar and spat out one word after another, “Dragon Transformation!”
Since his Soul hadn’t reached its limit yet and his physical body couldn’t support it, he might as well make his physical body stronger.
A dragon’s roar rang out and a golden dragon head flashed. Yang Kai’s body expanded and with a series of crackling sounds, dragon scales covered his entire body and two short dragon horns sprouted from his forehead. His hands transformed into sharp dragon claws while the dragon tail on his back whipped about, causing the entire ancient battlefield to be filled with dust and smoke.
The half dragon body was still in human form, but it now had many more characteristics of the Dragon Race.
After Dragon Transformation, Yang Kai’s breathing became heavy, and the aura he breathed out from his nostrils was actually able to stir up a violent wind, giving him a majestic appearance.
Yang Kai couldn’t help feeling a bit stunned as he rubbed his head, vaguely feeling that he had grown a bit taller.
After carefully examining himself, he discovered that it wasn’t an illusion, but rather that he had really grown taller.
The last time he had used the Dragon Transformation Secret Technique was when he had fought the Wind Monarch in the Passing of Time Temple, but that battle had not been so intense! Over the years, Yang Kai had been drifting about, too busy to focus on cultivating the Dragon Transformation Secret Technique, but he had been constantly consuming Dragon Blood Pills, so even though he had not deliberately cultivated it, his figure had unconsciously grown larger.
However, this process was very slow. The Dragon Race had a long lifespan, so their growth wasn’t something they needed to worry about. Yang Kai had swallowed so many Dragon Blood Pills and Dragon Blood Flowers, but his body had only grown from 30 zhang to about 32 zhang in length. This process had taken more than ten years.
After the battle with the Wind Monarch in the Divine Temple, he had gone to the Lower Planes Star Field to refine the World Bead, not even taking the time to refine the Dragon Blood Pill. Logically speaking, even if he had grown, he shouldn’t have grown so quickly.
Yang Kai estimated that his current size was at least 40 zhang, which could be said to have increased dramatically.
To the Dragon Race, the larger one’s body was, the stronger their strength was. In the Dragon Palace Temple, the largest Dragon Race Elder was a thousand feet tall, a height that the current Dragon Race could never hope to reach.
Yang Kai possessed the Golden Holy Dragon’s Origin Energy, so the more he develop and comprehend this Origin Energy, the larger his physique would become. Now that his physique had grown, it meant that his Origin Energy had been stimulated a bit more.
Pondering for a moment, Yang Kai estimated that this was the benefit of his battle with the Wind Monarch. In that battle, after transforming into his Dragon Transformation, he had used his full strength, and at the critical juncture of life and death, the Golden Holy Dragon’s Origin Energy had been quietly released.
At that time, he had been completely exhausted and hadn’t felt anything, but today he had finally discovered the benefits.
This could be considered a pleasant surprise. With his physical body becoming stronger, he would be able to bear more.
After transforming into a dragon, the pressure on Yang Kai’s body suddenly lessened, and he once again stepped forward.
This time, he walked another five hundred zhangs.
Yang Kai finally stopped. This was his limit.
Sitting down cross-legged, Yang Kai felt like he was sitting on a small mountain. Inside the Ancient Battlefield, Yang Kai opened his body and mind, allowing the two forces to invade his body as he silently meditated.
Yang Kai sat there for three months without moving, and only after three months did he open his eyes. His dignified dragon eyes were filled with vigor, and it was obvious he had reaped a great harvest. He couldn’t help grinning, but a rumbling sound filled the air.
If a timid person were to witness this scene, they would probably be frightened to death by Yang Kai’s ferocious mouth.
A thousand zhangs outside the Ancient Battlefield, the two forces that had wreaked havoc for countless years had completely disappeared and were now being absorbed into Yang Kai’s body.
Without the effects of the power of time, the flow of time in this place naturally returned to normal. Yang Kai’s heart stirred, and in the next moment, Bo Ya, who was sitting on Gun Gun’s head with her hands supporting her chin, heard Yang Kai’s voice, “How long has it been?”
Although Bo Ya didn’t understand why Yang Kai would ask such a childish question, she still answered, “Five days.”
Fortunately, it had only been five days.
Inside the Ancient Battlefield, Yang Kai stood up and walked forward. His pace wasn’t fast, but every step he took caused the earth to tremble and the dry blood covering his body to fall off.
However, after just a few steps, Yang Kai’s expression became suspicious. Why did he feel like… he had grown a bit taller?
