Seeing this, the surrounding people all shivered in fear, and some of them even quietly moved back a few steps, trying to get as far away from the Earth Dragon as possible. In the Ruins Boundary, the Open Heaven Stage were unable to display too much power, and this kind of innate vicious beast was simply too difficult to deal with, so no one wanted to directly confront it.
An old man looked at Yang Kai and frowned slightly, “That man only said a few words, yet little friend is so ruthless. Isn’t that too much?”
This old man’s aura was calm and steady, and his expression was dignified. Obviously, he was an Open Heaven Stage cultivator. There were also many people behind him, more than thirty of them.
Someone recognized this old man and whispered, “It’s the manager of Orchid Flower Group, Hu Yi.”
Hundreds of thousands of people had been swallowed up by the Grat Ruins Fog and entered the Great Ruins Boundary. Apart from the three great forces of Thunder Light, Scarlet Starm and Sword Pavilion that originally existed in the Star City, the scattered cultivators also understood the principle of banding together for warmth. As a result, various large and small organizations were formed, such as Ding Yi raising his arm and establishing Emperor Heaven. The Orchid Flower Group was also established in the Great Ruins Boundary, and there were countless such forces.
Most forces didn’t have an Open Heaaven Stage master. After all, Open Heaven Stage cultivators weren’t like cabbages or radishes that could be found anywhere, and only a few forces had Open Heaven Stage masters.
Although the number of people in this Orchid Flower Group wasn’t very high, Hu Yi was a Third Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator, so his strength was quite impressive.
“Old Hu is right, this little brat treats human lives like grass. He doesn’t look like a good person at all,” Another young man said as he glared at Yang Kai.
“The Chief of Profound Clouds Society, Liao Yibai!” Someone called out.
Liao Yibai raised his head proudly.
“Young man, I advise you to take this bag away, otherwise it will be difficult to clean up this mess,” Another force’s leader said.
With these three people speaking, the rest of the group immediately became indignant. Everyone had seen the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light appear, so they had rushed over to investigate, but when they arrived, the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light was nowhere to be seen. Originally, they had been somewhat puzzled, but the bald man’s shout before his death alerted them.
Although they didn’t know what was so special about this bag, this bag was the most suspicious thing on this mountain. It was definitely this thing that had blocked the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light, so how could they be willing to accept this? For a time, the crowd was filled with anger. Even though the Earth Dragon had killed more than a dozen of the bald man’s subordinates, they were still cursing at Yang Kai.
Liao Yibai stared greedily at the Six Directions Wishful Bag. A bag that could block the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light was definitely extraordinary, and in this situation, this bag could actually collect the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light. If he could obtain this bag, this trip to the Yuan Magnetic Mountain would not have been in vain.
Thinking so, Liao Yibai angrily shouted, “Boy, are you taking this bag or not?”
The clamorous noise lingered in Yang Kai’s ears, but he remained calm, their threatening words like a cool breeze. Hearing this, he turned to look at Liao Yibai, “So what if I take it? So what if I don’t?”
Liao Yibai coldly snorted, “If you take it, everything will be fine, but if you don’t, you’ll have to bear the consequences.”
Yang Kai grinned at him, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, “I’ll wait and see!”
Displeased, Liao Yibai turned to Hu Yi and asked, “Old Hu, what do you say?”
Hu Yi said in a low voice, “Since this boy is so stubborn, let’s see what kind of end he will face if he causes public outrage.”
Liao Yibai laughed, “That’s exactly what I want. A mere Emperor Realm master dares to speak so arrogantly here, he really doesn’t know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is. Does he really think he can do whatever he wants just because he has a beast? We might as well join forces to capture this beast first before carefully teaching him how to behave.”
“Good!” Hu Yi nodded.
Liao Yibai raised his spear and pointed it towards the Earth Dragon, shouting, “Kill!”
Saying so, he was the first to rush forward and thrust his spear towards the Earth Dragon. Although this spear was not as powerful as Yang Kai’s Azure Dragon Spear, it was still quite extraordinary. Following closely behind him, the people from Profound Clouds Society also rushed forward.
As soon as he made his move, the hundred or so people present immediately launched their attacks towards the Earth Dragon, especially the Open Heaven Stage cultivators.
However, not everyone was taking action, and most of the cultivators present still maintained a wait-and-see attitude. After all, they had no grievances with Yang Kai before, so at this time, they were unwilling to easily offend him.
The Earth Dragon had already been injured by the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light and was in a miserable state. Now that it had been struck by these countless attacks, blood immediately spurted out from its mouth and sprayed out in all directions.
Many cultivators were caught off guard and were affected by the sticky liquid, causing them to cry out in pain. It was too late for them to retreat. The sticky liquid was extremely corrosive and instantly melted their flesh, revealing their white bones.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people had died.
Hu Yi, Liao Yibai, and the other Open Heaven Stage masters were all shocked. Originally, seeing the Earth Dragon riddled with wounds, they had thought it was a soft persimmon, but who would have thought that this fellow would be so slippery? Many of their attacks landed on it, but none of them hurt, and on the contrary, many of their allies suffered heavy casualties.
He really didn’t know how it had suffered such grievous injuries.
However, since they had already taken action, it was naturally impossible for them to act peacefully. The deaths of these dozen or so people didn’t cause them to retreat, instead attracting even more attacks.
Seeing this, Yue He couldn’t help but take action, while Guo Ziyan and the others were also filled with righteous indignation, each of them secretly circulating their strength, waiting for Yang Kai’s command to rush forward.
Yang Kai raised his hand to stop them and whispered, “This guy won’t die so easily.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Earth Dragon shook its head and plunged its head into the ground, creating a large hole and disappearing.
If it had been in its peak state, it would have been able to hold out for a while against more than a hundred people’s attacks, but now that it was seriously injured, how could it be a match for them? However, if it couldn’t beat them, it would naturally flee. The Earth Dragon burrowing was an instinct, and with this attack, more than ten people had died in vain.
Looking at the huge hole in the ground, no one dared to pursue it, all of them standing there stunned.
In the crowd, a figure suddenly appeared. It was Liao Yibai, who was rushing towards the Six Directions Wishful Bag with one hand holding a spear and the other reaching towards it with an excited expression.
Seeing that the Six Directions Wishful Bag was shaking non-stop, it was obvious that it had already collected a lot of Yuan Magnetic Divine Light. Liao Yibai secretly made up his mind. After snatching this bag, he would immediately flee. As for the rest, he couldn’t be bothered with them. This bag was a treasure, and the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light he had stored inside was also a treasure. His harvest was quite good!
Although his movements were fast, it was impossible for him to hide from the observation of the Open Heaven Stage masters. Seeing this, they secretly cursed this guy for being so quick to react and quickly followed behind Liao Yibai.
In front of the Six Directions Wishful Bag, the void shook and a figure appeared like a ghost. Liao Yibai, who was at the front, looked up and saw that it was the stubborn Emperor Realm boy from before.
Immediately, he shouted, “Those who block me will die!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his spear and thrust it forward with a peerless might.
If it really was an ordinary Emperor Realm, facing such a spear, there was no way Yang Kai could dodge it, but he obviously had no intention of doing so.
“A spear user? A fellow user!” Yang Kai smiled at Liao Yibai, stretched out his hand, and grabbed the Azure Dragon Spear. With a wave of his hand, Yang Kai also thrust out his spear. This spear was extremely simple and without any fancy moves.
Seeing this scene, Liao Yibai was enraged. A mere Emperor Realm master actually dared to overestimate his own strength. From another perspective, this fellow simply didn’t put him in his eyes, otherwise how could he have so boldly thrust his spear forward?
Enraged, he poured his strength into his spear, determined to kill Yang Kai on the spot.
In the blink of an eye, the two spears collided and a violent force swept out. Liao Yibai, who was originally full of confidence, stared with his eyes filled with shock.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone present, the long spear in Liao Yibai’s hand broke apart inch by inch, sending fragments flying everywhere.
Immediately after, Liao Yibai’s figure suddenly came to a stop in mid-air as he felt a sharp pain in his chest.
Looking down, he saw a long spear piercing into his chest, from his chest all the way to his back. Every time his heart beat, he could feel it twitch.
Unable to resist swallowing his saliva, Liao Yibai looked up at Yang Kai, his eyes filled with disbelief.
“You can’t do anything,” Yang Kai looked up at him arrogantly.
Liao Yibai opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but how could Yang Kai give him a chance? With a wave of his Azure Dragon Spear, a burst of power swept out and Liao Yibai’s body exploded, blood and flesh flying everywhere.
Yang Kai waved his hand and took his Space Ring, putting it away without even looking at it.
Everyone fell silent!
Everyone stared at Yang Kai in shock for a long time.
The Open Heaven Stage cultivators who had followed behind Liao Yibai and were preparing to snatch the Six Directions Wishful Bag all felt a chill run down their spines as they froze in place, not daring to move forward.
None of them could believe what they were seeing. An Open Heaven Stage cultivator had actually been destroyed by a single spear strike from an Emperor Realm master? Not even a single artifact had been preserved. Was this young man really an Emperor Realm master? Was he some kind of High Rank Open Heaven Stage master?
However, under the perception of their Divine Sense, Yang Kai really didn’t have the aura of an Open Heaven Stage master. On the contrary, the traces of an Emperor Realm master were extremely obvious.
Guo Ziyan sneered in his heart. A bunch of ragtag mob wanted to make an enemy out of the Sixth Manager? They were really overestimating themselves. The hundreds of Thunder Light cultivators who had joined forces before had all been killed. Even a Fourth Order Open Heaven Stage master like Bie Jian had died on the spot, let alone these trash.
It was undeniable that before today, he had never imagined that an Emperor Realm master could possess such terrifying combat strength. Everything he had seen today had completely toppled his understanding, but the hot blood surging in his heart told him that compared to Yang Kai and the Poison Lady, he was more willing to serve under Yang Kai. Being able to follow such a leader was not an opportunity everyone had.
The corners of Hu Yi’s eyes twitched as he stared at Yang Kai, then at the Azure Dragon Spear in his hand, asking bitterly, “What did you do?”
In that instant of confrontation just now, none of them had been able to clearly see what had happened. All they saw was Liao Yibai, who was at the front, suddenly stop and explode.
Everything happened too quickly!
