The dark clouds became lower, as if they were really falling.
Suddenly, a giant whirlpool appeared in the thick dark clouds. As the whirlpool spun, the surrounding thick fog also began to swirl, causing the sky to appear unpredictable.
A light suddenly appeared from the center of the vortex, causing Zhu Yan’s expression to change as he raised his brow, “This is…”
Fu Zhun also showed a look of surprise. The moment this light appeared, she and Zhu Yan both felt a trace of the Dragon Clan’s aura.
If there is a Dragon Breath, it meant that there was a Dragon Clan, but they had brought out all the pure-blooded Dragon Clans on Dragon Island, so there were only a few of them, so which one of their clansmen would appear in the cloud vortex?
Not to mention, the Dragon Breath they felt was ancient and desolate, as if it had come from a distant era, shattering space and time, causing both of them to feel a sense of inferiority.
Before he could figure out what was happening, the beam of light had already shot down like a shooting star, dragging a long ribbon of light behind it. As it fell, the dark clouds above the head began to twist and distort, quickly shrinking into a ball as the beam of light shot towards the ground.
The feeling of heaven collapsing and earth shattering assaulted everyone’s hearts. Inside the Star Soul Palace, whether it was the Human Race or Demon Race, all of them couldn’t breathe and felt uneasy.
Soon, everyone’s expressions changed, because the source of the light was actually directed at the Star Soul Palace.
Lightning flashed and before the countless strong army could react, the light descending from the sky had already struck the ground.
With a loud bang, the earth shook and the hundreds of Spirit Peaks in Star Soul Palace shook violently, causing rubble to tumble down. As for the spot where the light fell, a circular shockwave that could be seen with the naked eye burst outwards. Wherever the shockwave passed, whether it was humans or demons, everyone was thrown into chaos.
Only when one’s strength reached the Emperor Realm or above could they barely stabilize themselves.
The dark clouds that followed the light also smashed into the ground, instantly enveloping the entire Star Soul Palace in a layer of fog.
Lan Xun, Lin Yun’er, and Mo Xiaoqi’s faces all paled as the light falling from the sky landed a few dozen meters in front of them, separating them from the Stone Demon Half-Saint.
Fortunately, the three young women’s strengths weren’t too bad right now, so they were able to resist the shockwave with their own techniques.
Looking up, they saw a figure half kneeling on the ground a few dozen meters away. His clothes were tattered, his hair was disheveled, and his tattered clothes revealed his sturdy physique, as if he had just fought a fierce battle.
His appearance couldn’t be seen clearly, and his long hair covered his face. One of his hands was supporting his knees while the other was holding a 2-3 zhang long spear. On the spear, there was a dragon coiling around it, covered in dragon scales, the spearhead flashing with a cold light, and the spear body exuding a desolate aura.
The three young girls were all stunned, and all the humans and demons who saw this scene were also stunned. None of them had expected that the light which had caused this phenomenon to descend from the sky was actually a person.
Countless pairs of eyes stared at him, as if all of them were focused on him.
“Uncle?” Lin Yun’er tilted her head and frowned.
“What?” Lan Xun heard this voice and turned to look at her, but she couldn’t hear her clearly.
At this moment, the half-kneeling figure finally moved and slowly straightened his body. When he squatted down, all of the light was covered by the long spear, but when he stood up, all the light in this world seemed to be snatched away by him.
Cracking sounds rang out from all over his body as he casually swung the spear in his hand and placed it on his shoulder. Looking up at the sky, he laughed loudly, his voice is like a Dragon Roar, “It feels good to be home!”
His messy long hair still covered his face, making it impossible to see his face, but his eyes were as bright as the sun.
Lan Xun was stunned as she asked, “Senior… Senior Brother Yang?”
Although the voice was loud and clear, to her, it was definitely Yang Kai’s voice. This time, Mo Xiaoqi also heard it clearly, her cold expression quickly melting as she called out in surprise, “Big Brother Yang?”
Ever since Yang Kai brought her to the Dragon Island’s Third Elder, Fu Xuan, she had not seen him again. Although it had only been less than twenty years, to a young girl who had just experienced her first awakening of love, these years had been far too long. She had wanted to leave Spirit Beast Island to find Yang Kai many times, but when Mo Huang was around, she had not had a chance to leave, and when Mo Huang was not around, Jiu Feng had always followed her. The reason she had come to the Southern Domain this time was because she really miss Yang Kai.
Unfortunately, after arriving here, Yang Kai had long since gone to the Demon Territory and hadn’t heard any news from him for three years.
She had never imagined that they would meet under such circumstances.
Didn’t he go to the Demon Territory? How did he fall from the sky?
Mo Xiaoqi didn’t understand, and neither did Lan Xun and Lin Yun’er. There was no longer any passage connecting the two worlds to the Demon Territory.
A few dozen meters away, Yang Kai reached out and brushed his hair back, revealing a bright smile, “Xiaoqi? Yun’er? And Junior Sister Lan? Why are you… Oh?”
Returning from the Outer Universe, there was naturally a great deal of danger. Just by looking at Yang Kai’s current sorry state, one could tell that this journey had not been smooth sailing. The many hardships he had encountered were simply too difficult for an outsider to understand. Now that he had finally returned to the Star Boundary, Yang Kai had yet to see the situation around him clearly. It could even be said that his landing here was not part of his plan, it was just a coincidence. But now, with a sweep of his Divine Sense, he knew what the situation was and where he was.
Why had they all come to Star Soul Palace? Yang Kai frowned slightly. In the few years he was gone, had the situation in the Star Boundary become so bad?
“Yang Kai!” In mid-air, Xue Li’s face suddenly turned cold as he stared at Yang Kai’s figure with his bloodshot eyes, his killing intent erupting. None of the Demon Saints didn’t bear a grudge against Yang Kai. If it weren’t for him, how could Yu Rumeng, Bei Limo, Chang Tian, and the others have betrayed the Demon Territory? If these three were here, taking down the Star Boundary would be as easy as crushing ten snail. It was because of him that these three Demon Saints had changed their stance, causing the Star Boundary’s war to fall into a stalemate. Although the final victory would definitely belong to the Demon Race, the amount of time and effort they had wasted would not be as much.
As his killing intent surged, the auras of the two Dragon Race Elders immediately locked onto Xue Li.
Xue Li turned his head and smiled coldly at Zhu Yan and Fu Zhun. At this moment, Star Soul Palace’s defeat had been decided, so even if Yang Kai appeared, it would be impossible for him to change the situation unless he had the strength of a Great Emperor. Therefore, even if Xue Li wanted to kill Yang Kai, he would not act rashly to disturb the nerves of the two Dragon Race Elders.
Down below, Yang Kai looked up and saw nothing, but his eyes seemed to pierce through space as he smiled towards the three Demon Saints.
“Interesting, he actually saw us,” Huo Bu chuckled, his round body trembling.
Fu Yu’s fingers curled slightly as she considered whether or not she should directly shoot Yang Kai to death. After thinking about it, with the two old dragons beside her, she probably wouldn’t have a chance to shoot.
“Uncle, be careful!” Lin Yun’er suddenly cried out. The moment Yang Kai raised his head, the nearby Stone Demon Half-Saint suddenly attacked, raising his palm and slapping it towards Yang Kai from afar. A giant black palm appeared in the sky.
Yang Kai acted as if he didn’t feel anything and didn’t move at all. In the blink of an eye, the palm slapped down.
With a loud bang, the ground where Yang Kai stood shattered.
Lin Yun’er’s face went blank, Mo Xiaoqi screamed, and Lan Xun’s face went pale… Although she knew that Yang Kai, who possessed the Space Laws, could not be killed so easily, she could not relax until she was certain he was safe.
Fortunately, in the next instant, Yang Kai’s figure reappeared, his tattered clothes making him look extremely comical, but at some point, he had already appeared in front of the Stone Demon. With a solemn expression, he thrust his spear towards the Stone Demon Half-Saint and shouted, “I’ll use you as a sacrifice for my spear!”
From the moment he obtained this Azure Dragon Spear until now, Yang Kai had been constantly on the road. Although he had encountered many dangerous situations, his spear had yet to drank blood.
A Half-Saint was enough to use as a sacrifice for the spear!
Seeing Yang Kai act so arrogantly, Stone Demon was stunned for a moment before sneering, “You overestimate yourself!”
His hand reached out to grab the spearhead.
He was a Stone Demon with an innate defensive ability, so even a Half-Saint like him would not be able to easily break through his defences. Although Yang Kai’s spear strike was quite powerful and even Demon Kings couldn’t resist it, how could he put it in his eyes? As long as he could grab this spear and drag it towards him, he would be able to smash his head into pieces.
The Demon Saints had said that whoever could kill Yang Kai would receive their personal guidance. With his current cultivation and the Demon Saints’ guidance, if he was lucky enough, he might be able to become a new Demon Saint.
All kinds of beautiful scenes were soon shattered by this spear.
The moment his hand grabbed the spearhead, he felt a sharp pain in his palm. The defense he was so proud of was completely useless in front of this spear, as if it was paper.
The long spear directly pierced a hole in his palm, but it didn’t slow down at all as it stabbed towards his head.
The sudden change shocked Stone Demon, “How is this possible!?”
His defensive ability, which was strong enough to withstand attacks from a Half-Saint of the same level, had been broken. This was simply unacceptable.
Although he was shocked, he was still a Half-Saint after all, so how could he be killed so easily? Seeing the long spear rapidly expanding in front of his eyes, he hurriedly turned his head, narrowly avoiding this terrifying attack and quickly retreated.
The Azure Dragon Spear was drawn from his palm, drawing a large amount of blood.
Yang Kai followed closely behind like a shadow, his face like jade, his spear like a dragon, his boundless spear shadows enveloping the Stone Demon Half-Saint.
Lan Xun and the others were all stunned. Although they knew that Yang Kai’s strength was far beyond their own, fighting someone at a higher realm was nothing out of the ordinary for him. Before this, he had fought with several Half-Saint and Pseudo Emperor masters and managed to survive, but how could he defeat a Stone Demon Half-Saint by himself?
They had originally planned to rescue Yang Kai, but seeing this scene, how could they dare to intervene? If they went up now, they would only disrupt Yang Kai’s tempo and might even ruin his plans.
After exchanging a glance with one another, they flew out and surrounded the Stone Demon Half-Saint from three directions, not giving him a chance to escape.
