The spectator stands around the Asura Arena were no longer able to clearly see what was happening inside. The entire Asura Arena was covered in blood-red flowers, and one could only faintly make out the silhouettes of people floating about and the sound of their fight.
Even so, this did not stop the audience from cheering enthusiastically, many of them shouting Yu Luocha’s name. It was obvious that this woman was quite popular in the Asura Arena.
She was beautiful, had a good figure, and was also strong, so naturally she would be sought after by many men.
Inside the private room, Pei Buwan stared at the battlefield below with a solemn expression. With his Fourth Order Open Heaven, he was naturally able to clearly see the situation in the battlefield. If he was in Yang Kai’s current cultivation, besides admitting defeat, there was nothing else he could do. Yang Kai couldn’t even find Yu Luocha’s true body, so how could he win?
If he wanted to win, he had to first find Yu Luocha’s whereabouts before he had a chance, but did he really have such eyesight?
In the Asura Arena, Yang Kai also felt a headache coming on. If possible, he didn’t want to reveal too many of his trump cards. After all, this was the Asura Arena, and many people were watching this battle, so some of his trump cards might cause some trouble.
But now that Yu Luocha was acting like this without even showing her whereabouts, Yang Kai felt helpless.
Lowering his head slightly, the hair in front of his forehead cast a thick shadow, allowing the petals around him to dance and fill the air with murderous intent.
A strange sound rang out again as flower petals fluttered about, forming a boundless killing array. Behind this killing array, Yu Luocha’s figure could be vaguely seen, her eyes devoid of any emotion.
When the sea of flowers approached him, Yang Kai suddenly raised his head and poured his Emperor Qi into his body, causing space cracks to appear all around him.
The sea of flowers collapsed and the space crack gradually disappeared. Yu Luocha, who was following closely behind the sea of flowers, raised her hand and slapped towards Yang Kai.
Yang Kai ignored all of this and suddenly turned his head in a certain direction, a golden light flashing from his left eye as he grinned maliciously, “Is it fun to hide here and there?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed over, his hands fluttering as he muttered, “Years Ups And Downs, Such as Flying Such as Dreaming!”
A palm strike landed.
Inside the sea of flowers, Yu Luocha’s pupils shrank to the size of a needle as if she was facing a great enemy. She couldn’t understand how the other party could find her whereabouts so quickly.
When she looked up, she saw that Yang Kai’s left eye had turned into a golden vertical eye. This vertical slit was filled with majesty, as if it could directly stare into the depths of her soul and pry into the secrets hidden in her heart, causing her hair to stand on end.
Realization dawned upon her. This guy had cultivated some kind of profound eye technique, no wonder he could reach such a level.
She wanted to dodge, but in that instant, her thoughts came to a halt. By the time she came back to her senses, the power of the palm had already reached her body. With a deafening roar, the boundless sea of flower seemed to have received a command and rolled over, forming a solid barrier in front of her.
Under the Time Flies Seal, the sea of flowers collapsed, revealing Yu Luocha’s true body that had been hiding inside, her expression somewhat panicked.
If it was Yang Kai in the early days of practicing the Time Flies Seal, he might not have been able to display such power, but in the ancient battlefield, Yang Kai had witnessed countless battles between the Passing of Time Great Emperor and Mo Sheng, absorbing the essence of the two’s battle and evolving his own Martial Dao True Intent. He didn’t dare to say anything else, but this Time Flies Seal had definitely reached the pinnacle of perfection, not much worse than the one the Passing of Time Great Emperor had personally used.
“You’re finished!” Yang Kai grinned at her. In the blink of an eye, a white lotus appeared in his Life's Exterminator Demon Eye.
Life Lotus!
Yu Luocha’s expression went blank for a moment, her Divine Soul Protection instantly becoming like paper as a giant lotus flower appeared in her vision, its petals blossoming and the power of her Divine Soul rapidly depleting.
Although Yu Luocha had also condensed her own Dao Seal, it was still within the realm of the Emperor Realm. In terms of the strength of her Divine Soul, how could it be compared to Yang Kai’s? Not to mention the nourishment of the Soul Warming Lotus over the years, it had allowed Yang Kai’s Divine Soul cultivation to greatly increase compared to cultivators of the same level. Even the nourishment he had obtained from Yu Ru Meng’s Primordial Yin had greatly increased his Divine Soul strength.
His current Divine Soul power might not be comparable to the Open Heaven Stage, but its at the level of Half Open Heaven.
With a splitting headache, Yu Luocha let out a sharp scream and instinctively circulated her Divine Soul Power to block the attack. However, the more she circulated her Spiritual Energy, the faster the white lotus flower blossomed. In the blink of an eye, the entire lotus flower had spread out and was as white as jade.
But this wasn’t the end. Yang Kai’s Life's Exterminator Demon Eye flashed with a golden light as his Divine Soul strength suddenly changed.
Raging Lotus!
The Life Lotus Secret Technique used the Divine Soul power of the enemy as nutrients to bloom a pure white lotus flower, but the Raging Lotus Secret Technique was the complete opposite. The blooming lotus flower closed up and wrapped around one’s Divine Soul, sealing one’s body and mind, severing the connection between the Soul and the body.
It could be said that once one was hit by the Raging Lotus Secret Technique, before they could resolve this Secret Technique, that person would become a mindless zombie.
The blooming lotus quickly closed up and wrapped around Yu Luocha’s Soul. If she was in perfect condition, Yu Luocha might have been able to break free from the shackles of this technique, but after being struck by the Life Lotus, her Divine Soul’s strength had been greatly reduced, so how could she do so now?
Her body and mind dimmed, as if she had been banished into a world of endless darkness, constantly falling, seemingly never ending.
As the boundless sea of flower collapsed, the scene in the Asura Arena was once again reflected in the eyes of the surrounding spectators. In the desert, Yang Kai and Yu Luocha stood not far from each other, neither of them moving.
This scene made it difficult to determine who would win!
Luo Haiyi also couldn’t tell, ever since the flower sea appeared, she had been unable to see anything. At this moment, she couldn’t help asking, “Shopkeeper Pei, did Sir Yang… win?”
Pei Buwan turned his head and gave Luo Haiyi a fright, because in this short period of time, this guy’s eyes were bloodshot.
Luo Haiyi couldn’t help taking a few steps back as her body tensed up.
Pei Buwan grinned fiercely and spat out two words, “He won!”
After saying this, he couldn’t help laughing loudly, “Hahahaha, he won!” He raised his arms high, as if he was the one who had won.
There was no way he wouldn’t be excited. Originally, he was at the end of his rope and had to borrow money to settle his debts, but he still didn’t have enough, so he had no choice but to take a gamble and make a comeback!
As such, there was no need to worry about the Headquarter sending people to investigate!
Just as Pei Buwan was laughing loudly, Yang Kai in the Asura Arena raised his hand and gently tapped Yu Luocha’s forehead. Yu Luocha fell to the ground with a loud bang, her eyes wide open but without any trace of excitement.
Before unraveling the Secret Technique of Raging Lotus, Yu Luocha could forget about ever waking up again.
Seeing this scene, how could the surrounding spectators not know what the result was? On the grandstand, there was an uproar. Yu Luocha, who was ranked fourth on the Asura Arena's Human Ranking, had actually lost to an unknown brat? The key point was that they didn’t even know how Yu Luocha had lost.
Many people had put a lot of bets on Yu Luocha, so at this time, they naturally couldn’t stop cursing and clamoring about the Asura Arena’s covert operations, as if they have some shady business.
Asura Arena’s side turned a deaf ear to this and completely ignored it.
The strange voice rang out again, announcing Yang Kai’s victory.
In the arena, the scenery changed and the desert quickly disappeared, transforming back into two towering platforms. A woman rushed into the Asura Arena and glared fiercely at Yang Kai before picking up Yu Luocha and disappearing in a flash. It seemed she was thinking of a way to save her.
Yang Kai slowly walked back the way he came from. Inside the tunnel, the man who had brought him here was still there, nodding slightly towards Yang Kai.
Yang Kai returned the greeting and walked straight into Pei Buwan’s private room.
“Sir Yang!” A few of the Hundred Refining Hall's workers immediately came up to greet him, their attitudes extremely warm as they nodded and bowed.
Yang Kai glanced around and frowned, “Where is your shopkeeper?”
Inside the private room, there was no trace of Pei Buwan. Could this guy have run away? Thinking about it, it didn’t make sense. The Hundred Refining Hall was still there, so where could he run off to? Moreover, this guy had previously sworn an oath with his Dao Seal Heart, so naturally he wouldn’t go back on his word.
Luo Haiyi said, “Shopkeeper Pei went to ask for money.”
“What money?” Yang Kai was stunned.
Luo Haiyi glanced at the several Hundred Refining Hall employees and said, “Shopkeeper Pei placed a bet on you. If you win, he wins.”
Yang Kai couldn’t help laughing, “He’s so confident in me? How much did he bet on me?”
Luo Haiyi shook her head, she didn’t know either.
Yang Kai looked at the few workers from Hundred Refining Hall and one of them smiled apologetically, “Not much, not much.”
“How much is not much?” Yang Kai didn’t give up.
The shop assistant raised a finger.
Yang Kai raised his brow, “A million?”
The clerk shook his head.
“Ten million?” Yang Kai was shocked.
The shop assistant nodded.
Tsk tsk, Yang Kai couldn’t help feeling impressed. This Pei Buwan was really quite muddle-headed. He didn’t know much about Yang Kai, but he actually dared to bet ten million Open Heaven Pills!
Suddenly, Yang Kai’s eyes flashed and he frowned, “What are my odds?”
The shop assistant’s expression suddenly became awkward as he scratched his face, not wanting to answer, but this matter couldn’t be hidden. As long as Yang Kai went outside to take a look, he would know. “One to four!”
“Hiss…” Yang Kai sucked in a breath of cold air and grit his teeth, “Shopkeeper Pei is rich!”
The odds were one to four and with ten million bet, it was forty million.
Damn it! No wonder that guy was so generous, declaring that if he won this round, not only would he return ten million, but he would also personally compensate a million.
Compared to the forty million, what was one million compensation? Now it seemed that he had already calculated it, causing Yang Kai’s teeth to ache. He had worked so hard to fight with others on the stage, but in the end, he had benefited others, but there was nothing he could do about it. What had been agreed upon before could not be changed now.
“Sir Yang, the shopkeeper said that he might need some time, so he asked us to return to the Hundred Refining Hall to wait for him. He told you not to worry, he will definitely give your eleven million.”
Yang Kai snorted, “If he dares to refuse, let’s see what happen!”
