Bai Qi explained, “In this Three Thousand Worlds, the vastness of the universe and the vastness of space, even if it is a High Rank Open Heaven Stage, wanting to travel from one place to another is not an easy task. It will certainly take a great deal of time, but how can we cultivators have so much time to waste? If we have time to travel, we might as well study the Secret Techniques and cultivate the Secret Techniques. As such, we have a Secret Technique called the Universe Escape Law. This Secret Technique has no other use but to travel. For example, in our First Inn, there is a Universe Escape Seal. The Universe Escape Seal has the seal of the Proprietress. As long as the Proprietress is still in this Great Domain, no matter where she is, she can instantly return to the First Inn. This is the Universe Escape Law!”
Hearing this, Yang Kai was dumbfounded, “It’s that amazing?”
Isn’t this the same effect as my Space Spirit Bead? The location of the Space Spirit Bead is where he can teleport to. As long as he wants to, he can go to the location of the Space Spirit Bead, which is similar to Universe Escape Technique.
It was the same principle as Space Arrays!
However, in comparison, his Space Spirit Bead was much more convenient than the Space Array, and it seemed to have its own advantages and disadvantages compared to this Universe Escape Law!
“It’s that amazing!” Bai Qi chuckled.
Yang Kai’s face darkened as he said, “If that’s the case, did Madam Lan rely on the Universe Escape Law to rush back to the First Inn before I did?” At this moment, he also understood that his previous actions had been considered brilliant, but in Madam Lan’s eyes, he was simply walking right into a trap.
Fortunately, the Golden Crow’s corpse had not been snatched away, otherwise he would have vomited blood.
“In addition, I’ll give you a piece of news for free,” Bai Qi smiled at Yang Kai, “Among these Three Thousand Worlds, there is a place called Universe Temple. Each of the great domains has one, more or less. Some great domain has four or five while others only have one. As long as you spend some Open Heaven Pills to leave your aura in the Universe Temple, you will be able to freely travel through these Universe Temple.”
“Space Array!” Yang Kai’s eyes lit up.
Bai Qi smiled and said, “You’re right, but there is a limit to how far you can teleport with the Space Laws. The Universe Escape Law is different. As long as your body can withstand it, no matter how far you travel, you can instantly reach the Universe Temple where you left your mark.”
Yang Kai nodded in understanding, “This is very convenient. If there is a chance in the future, I must go and take a look! Which force does the Universe Temple belong to?”
Bai Qi continued, “It doesn’t belong to any force, Universe Temple was jointly built by the 36 Cave Heaven and the 72 Paradise, and every Universe Temple is guarded by the disciples of those Cave Heaven and Paradise, so no one is allowed to take action inside, otherwise it will be an enemy of all the Cave Heaven and Paradise!”
Yang Kai was shocked, “Universe Temple was actually jointly built by all the Cave Heaven and Paradise?” But thinking about it carefully, it wasn’t strange at all. No one would feel at ease if such a thing was controlled by any force, nor would any force be able to control it on their own. It was only logical for the people of the 36 Cave Heaven and 72 Paradise to unite and control it.
However, listening to Bai Qi’s words, if he were to encounter any trouble in the future, he would be able to hide in Universe Temple!
“Can you tell me what happened on Sun Star now?”
Since they had agreed on this beforehand, Yang Kai naturally wouldn’t go back on his word and immediately explained his experience on the Sun Star. Bai Qi was dazzled by what he heard and couldn’t help exclaiming in amazement. It wasn’t strange for Yang Kai to be able to hide under the watchful eyes of a group of Open Heaven Stage masters, as long as he had a suitable artifact, he would be able to do so. On the contrary, he was quite interested in how Yang Kai escaped from the pursuit of those Open Heaven Stage masters.
When Yang Kai said that he was proficient in the Space Laws and was especially good at escaping, he dismissed him.
In any case, this wasn’t a secret. When he was being chased by Madam Lan and the others, he had used teleportation countless times.
After chatting for a long time, Bai Qi finally said in a drunken voice, “Let’s end things here for today. I’ll go get busy first. There are quite a lot of people coming to the First Inn recently, so you’d better be careful. They’re probably all here for you.”
Watching Bai Qi leave, Yang Kai wore a worried look.
Opening the Wishful Bag, he saw that the Golden Crow’s corpse was still inside. Although he had managed to snatch this hot potato, how to deal with it now was a troublesome matter. But no matter what, this good thing would definitely be sold for a good price. At the very least, he would have to compensate for his loss of the two Golden Plume Feathers from Mie Meng.
If he really couldn’t, then he would exchange it for a Seventh Grade Sun's True Gold! In any case, his original goal was to obtain a Seventh Grade Sun's True Gold. After condensing the power of the Fire Element, no one would have any ideas about him.
Moreover, hiding in a room was not an option, he couldn’t hide here forever. Although he still had some Open Heaven Pills on hand, they wouldn’t last long.
Pondering for a moment, Yang Kai stood up, pushed open the door, and headed downstairs.
Downstairs, Yang Kai glanced around and saw that the main hall was filled with noise. The original tables had been reduced to a dozen or so, but the supply still couldn’t meet the demand. The entire hall could be said to be packed with people.
Bai Qi ran back and forth with a few plates of food, but when he looked up and saw Yang Kai, he was shocked, “Why did you come down?”
“Why can’t I come down?” Yang Kai sneered.
As soon as these words came out, all the noise in the hall suddenly fell silent, and after a while, everyone’s eyes turned towards Yang Kai, their Divine Sense sweeping over him. In an instant, Yang Kai felt as if he was a little white sheep that had accidentally entered a wolf’s den, his hair standing on end as he lost all sense of security.
Bai Qi gave him a big thumbs up and then lowered his head and went to work.
Yang Kai looked around and saw many familiar faces. The few Mid Rank Open Heaven Stage masters who had been chasing him were all present, with the exception of Madam Lan.
One after another, Divine Sense after another flashed across the hall, all of them staring at Yang Kai with malicious intent in their eyes. The entire hall was silent, but everyone felt as if a violent storm was about to break out. The weaker cultivators couldn’t help gulping as they looked towards the door, seemingly searching for a way out.
Just as the atmosphere was about to become tense, a door on the second floor suddenly opened and Madam Lan walked out. Sweeping her phoenix eyes around, her gaze landed on Yang Kai and she snorted lightly before leaning against the armrest and taking out a handful of melon seeds and munching on them.
Yang Kai grinned, knowing that since Madam Lan had appeared, no one would dare to attack him here.
It was likely that Madam Lan had also noticed that the atmosphere was not right, so she had deliberately appeared to suppress the situation.
The main hall was filled with people and there were no seats. Yang Kai looked around and walked straight to a table. There were three people sitting at this table, a dignified young man and two old men with deep auras. Behind this young man stood a charming woman wearing revealing clothes, and behind these two old men stood a group of disciples, obviously from the same force.
The young man’s strength was not high, he should only have condensed a Dao Seal while the two old men were both Open Heaven Stage masters.
The young man was still looking at Yang Kai disdainfully, but seeing him walk straight towards him, he couldn’t help frowning, not knowing what Yang Kai wanted to do.
“Brother, we meet again, what a coincidence!” Yang Kai happily greeted him, “If you don’t mind, let’s share a table.”
Saying so, he didn’t care if the other party agreed or not and directly sat down opposite him.
The young man was somewhat confused, “Who are you?”
Yang Kai’s face was filled with enthusiasm as he said, “Friend, you really forget things fast. Didn’t we meet on the way to the Sun Star?”
These words weren’t nonsense. The two of them had indeed met before. At that time, Yang Kai had been on the way to the Sun Star with Die You and the others when this young man’s ship had crashed into them from behind, nearly injuring them. Afterwards, they had returned to invite Die You and Asun on board, but Yang Kai had refused.
At that time, he didn’t know which force they belonged to, but after seeing the jade slip that Meng Hong had given him, he realized they were from the Unpeaceful Province.
After Yang Kai’s reminder, the young man suddenly understood, “It’s you!” Saying so, his face sank, “Who allowed you to sit down? Scram!”
Yang Kai didn’t mind and simply chuckled, “There’s nowhere else to sit, you just happen to have an empty seat here. Why are you so stingy?”
The young man wanted to say something more, but suddenly felt that something was wrong. There were many Divine Senses on his body, and as he carefully examined himself, he turned his head and saw that the few Mid Rank Open Heaven Stage masters in the hall were all staring at him suspiciously, causing his face to pale, wondering how he had attracted their attention.
The two Open Heaven Stage old men sitting next to Yang Kai also felt that something was wrong. One of them shot a glance at the young man while the other looked at Yang Kai and said, “This table is yours, let’s go!”
Saying so, he stood up.
The young man seemed to be somewhat unwilling, but he was forcefully pulled away by another old man. The group of people didn’t stop, paid their bills, and left the First Inn.
A moment later, on the ship, the young man’s face sank, “Who is that guy?”
The two old men behind him glanced at each other before one of them said, “Young Master, that person is the one who stole the Golden Crow’s corpse.”
The young man was shocked, “What? He stole the Golden Crow’s corpse and then safely escaped back to the First Inn?”
“That’s right, it’s him!”
“Then why should we be afraid of him?” The young man asked in a low voice. The other party had only come to share a table with him, yet they had to leave, making it seem like he was afraid of the other party, causing him to lose face.
The old man said, “The one we’re afraid of isn’t him, it’s just that there’s no need to get entangled with him at this time. The Golden Crow’s corpse is of great importance, and when the time comes, the First Inn will surely be covered in storm. It’s best if we don’t get involved in this mess.”
The other old man also nodded, “Yes!”
The young man’s face became gloomy. Although he knew they were right, he was still somewhat unwilling.
Seemingly having seen through Yang Kai’s thoughts, the old man from before said, “Rest assured, Young Master, I’m afraid that brat won’t be able to live much longer.”
The young man asked, “What do you mean?”
The old man sneered, “Trying to stir up a storm with his insignificant strength, he’ll definitely die a miserable death!”
