The old man surnamed Kang also seemed to want to see Yang Kai’s ability, so even if he could intercept some of the strange beasts, he ignored them and allowed them to rush towards Yang Kai.
Yang Kai flicked his finger and sent out a series of Moon Blades, slicing the attacking beasts in half before they could even get close.
“Space Ability!” Old Man Kang’s eyes narrowed as he thought to himself, Is this young man really the young master of some great force? Even in the Outer Universe, there weren’t many who were proficient in Space Abilities, let alone condensing their own Dao Seals.
The Dao of Space was more profound and obscure than any other Dao, making it difficult to cultivate.
If it weren’t for the massive amount of resources and the guidance of expert teachers, how could this young man have dabbled so deeply in the Dao of Space?
Thinking of this, the old man surnamed Kang couldn’t help but think highly of Yang Kai, secretly thinking that this person must have an extraordinary background, otherwise Yue He, a Fifth Order Open Heaven, wouldn’t have called him Young Master.
With this, Yang Kai’s strength was no less than his and Yue He’s. With the three of them working together, their chances of escaping were greatly increased.
The old man surnamed Kang’s thoughts were constantly changing, but Yang Kai didn’t notice. On the other hand, Yue He glanced back at Yang Kai. Seeing him act so freely, she was relieved.
The three of them continued forward, stepping over mountains of corpses and seas of blood, but the strange beasts continued without end.
Old Man Kang and Yue He had exchanged positions several times in a row and both of them had consumed a great deal of energy. Both of them wore extremely solemn expressions. Compared to the Monster Beasts outside, the strength of the Great Ruins Boundary beasts seemed to be much higher, perhaps due to the environment of the Great Ruins Boundary.
In the Great Ruins Boundary, there was no Open Heaven, not only for cultivators, but also for ancient remnant beasts. After many years of accumulation in a realm, the strength they could display would also become stronger.
Gradually, quite a number of people gathered around the three of them. At this time, as long as one wasn’t an idiot, they would know how to warm up to each other. Yang Kai and the other two were unstoppable, so naturally, they attracted the attention of those who wanted to live.
Yue He and the old man surnamed Kang didn’t say anything. At this time, the more people gathered around them, the more advantageous it would be for them, so they tacitly agreed with their actions.
After the time it took to boil a cup of tea, a hundred people had already gathered, and as time passed, more people began to gather.
Suddenly, a voice rang out, “Brother Yang? Is it Brother Yang?”
The voice sounded somewhat familiar, causing Yang Kai to look over in surprise, only to see a man covered in blood, wielding a sharp sword, charging towards him. There were a few people following behind him, but there were many strange beasts in between, making it impossible for them to get close.
Looking at each other, Yang Kai asked in surprise, “Brother Meng?”
This person was none other than Great Moon Province’s Meng Hong! Yang Kai had not expected to meet someone he knew here.
He and Meng Hong weren’t very familiar with each other, but at least they had been together for a while. At that time, he had brought Asun along to search for her senior, and after finding Wei Que, they had been arranged to board a ship in Great Moon Province.
At that time, it was the room that Meng Hong had arranged for them. Knowing that Yang Kai had just entered the Outer Unniverse and was completely confused about this place, Meng Hong had even given him a jade slip that introduced all kinds of information about the Outer Universe.
However, after the Golden Crow Divine Palace incident, Yang Kai stole the Golden Crow’s corpse and fled back to the First Inn. Great Moon Province was too weak to protect Yang Kai, so Wei Que and the head of Great Moon Province gave him some compensation before leaving. Before leaving, Yang Kai entrusted both Old Fang and Die You to the Great Moon Province.
Meng Hong’s personality was quite good, and he was also the leader of Great Moon Province’s current generation, so he could be considered quite generous and honest.
Since they were familiar with each other, Yang Kai naturally wouldn’t just stand by and watch. His figure flickered as he flew over, the moonblade in his hand flickering as he cut down the beasts, arriving beside Meng Hong in the blink of an eye.
“It really is you, Brother Yang!” Meng Hong was both surprised and happy, “I thought I recognized the wrong person.”
Yang Kai grinned, “I also didn’t expect to run into Brother Meng here. Let’s not talk about this for now, follow me.”
Meng Hong nodded, “Many thanks, Brother Yang.” Turning around, he called out to his companions, “Let’s go!”
When Yang Kai came to pick them up, Yue He, who was leading the charge, immediately stopped and waited for Yang Kai to lead Meng Hong and the others back to the group before Yue He continued forward.
This action caused the old man surnamed Kang to frown slightly, somewhat displeased, but at least nothing had happened, so he was too lazy to say anything.
Although this group of over a hundred people couldn’t affect the overall situation in front of this overwhelming Beast Tide, they at least had some ability to protect themselves. Although they didn’t know each other, in order to survive, all of them gathered their strength and charged out like sharp arrows.
“Brother Meng, why are you here?” Yang Kai asked casually as he attacked the beast.
Meng Hong smiled bitterly, “This Star City has a business of my Great Moon Province, so I came here to check the accounts.”
Hearing this, Yang Kai couldn’t help laughing, “Then you’re really unlucky.”
Meng Hong asked, “Brother Yang, what about you? Why are you here?”
“It was just a coincidence,” Yang Kai said casually, but it wasn’t like he was trying to deal with it. After all, he couldn’t say that he had been kidnapped, it was too embarrassing.
“Oh, I forgot to introduce Brother Yang, these are my Junior Brothers and Sisters, and this is Junior Sister Chen Yue from Hundred Spirits Province,” Meng Hong pointed to the group of people who had come with him and introduced them. When he mentioned these Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters, Meng Hong’s expression was natural, but when he mentioned the Hundred Spirits Province's Chen Yue, Meng Hong’s expression became somewhat tender.
Yang Kai couldn’t help glancing over at Chen Yue and found that this woman had a sweet appearance and an exquisite figure.
Meng Hong was probably interested in this woman.
As for the Great Moon Province’s disciples, two of them looked familiar to Yang Kai, presumably because he had seen them before.
The few of them quickly saluted. After all, Yang Kai had saved them, so they owed him a favor. Chen Yue smiled sweetly and said, “Many thanks to Senior Brother Yang for saving me.”
Her voice was sweet but not lacking in purity, it was very pleasant to listen to.
Yang Kai nodded, “Junior Sister Chen is too polite, it’s nothing. We should first think of a way to overcome this crisis.”
Chen Yue calmly replied, “I will follow Senior Brother Yang’s instructions.”
As they were speaking, the earth shook violently and a violent aura rushed towards them. The old man surnamed Kang who was leading the way shouted, “Thunder Roar!”
Everyone looked up and saw a massive, rhinoceros-like beast with lightning crackling all over its body charging towards them. Although this beast was huge, its speed was not slow at all, and as it approached, tiny arcs of lightning appeared in the air, causing everyone who saw it to feel numb.
Shocked cries rang out as everyone panicked.
Yang Kai’s eyes also narrowed slightly. Thunder Roar was a famous vicious beast in the Three Thousand Worlds, an ancient remnant beast, and judging from the ferocity of this Thunder Roar, it had probably reached the limit of the Great Ruins Boundary.
Who would dare face such a ferocious creature head-on?
In this massive Beast Tide, this Thunder Roar was probably one of the most powerful existences, wherever it attacked, all the beasts would retreat.
A thousand meters away, Thunder Roar suddenly let out a low roar and lowered its head. From the horn on its forehead, a bolt of lightning shot towards the old man surnamed Kang. This bolt of lightning contained a power that could destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth, completely ignoring the barriers of space and traversing a thousand meters.
The lightning bolt was so fast that it arrived in the blink of an eye.
What caused everyone’s expressions to change drastically was that in the face of this terrifying attack, Old Man Kang didn’t even hesitate and immediately dodged to the side. Even with his speed, half of his body was still struck by the lightning and instantly became charred.
He was originally the one in the lead, so with this action, everyone behind him was immediately exposed, and although Yue He, who was following closely behind, was also able to dodge, she didn’t move. Instead, the red diamond in her hand shook and transformed into a blood-red protective barrier.
With a loud bang, white light flashed.
The blood-red barrier only lasted for a moment before it was broken, and the blazing white lightning struck Yue He’s body, causing her to fly backwards like a ragdoll and bleed in midair.
Yang Kai quickly caught her and looked down. Yue He’s face was pale and the corner of her mouth was covered in blood. Her delicate body was trembling uncontrollably, obviously quite seriously injured.
Dong, dong, dong, the earth trembled as the Thunder Roar’s strike landed, and the four limbs of the Thunder Roar rushed forward.
This group of over a hundred people had been formed at the last moment. Seeing the two leaders, Open Heaven Stage, escaped and were injured, how could they dare to remain where they were? In the blink of an eye, all of them had fled.
Only Meng Hong and the others remained where they were. After all, Yang Kai had just saved them, so it wasn’t a good time to leave him behind. Meng Hong hurriedly said, “Brother Yang, hurry up and leave!”
Yang Kai ignored him and stared at Yue He in his arms with a strange expression, “Why aren’t you dodging?”
Yue He forced a smile and said, “You’re still behind me, what will happen to you if i dodged?” She, an Open Heaven Stage cultivator, had suffered such a blow. If Yang Kai was hit by this lightning bolt, his soul would immediately scatter.
“Do I know you well?” Yang Kai looked at her speechlessly.
Yue He pursed her lips and stubbornly remained silent.
“Sigh,” Yang Kai sighed lightly before turning around and handing Yue He over to Chen Yue, “Help me look after her.”
“What are you doing?” Yue He asked in surprise.
Meng Hong and the others also wore looks of surprise on their faces. Looking around, they saw Yang Kai walking forward step by step, his black hair fluttering in the wind, his imposing figure as straight as a mountain, deeply imprinted into everyone’s eyes.
With a cracking sound, the horn on the Thunder Roar’s forehead once again released an incandescent bolt of lightning that shot towards Yang Kai like a flood dragon.
“Get away!” Yue He shouted in horror.
Meng Hong also cried out, “Brother Yang, be careful!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Kai punched out, his deep voice echoing in the depths of everyone’s hearts.
“Exile!”
Wherever the fist passed, the void would collapse, instantly forming a giant black hole. A chaotic aura filled the black hole, and the lightning bolt that was strong enough to damage an Open Heaven Stage cultivator plunged into it and disappeared.
The black hole disappeared in a flash and Yang Kai withdrew his fist, completely unharmed. The entire place fell silent!
