As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Li spat out a mouthful of blood and his aura instantly weakened as he stared at Yang Kai in shock, “What kind of fire is this? What the helll is this!”
The Soul Needle’s grade wasn’t low, but in just a breath’s time, it had been incinerated by the raging flames. Zhu Li couldn’t imagine how high the grade of the Fire Element was to be able to achieve this!
In the blink of an eye, two of the Sword Pavilion and Thunder Light remaining three Mid Rank Open Heaven Stage had been injured. In comparison, Long Tai’s injuries were relatively light and he had only been struck by Yang Kai’s fist. On the other hand, Zhu Li was shocked and couldn’t control himself for a moment.
Without the Soul Needle’s restraint, Yang Kai immediately rushed like a dragon coming out from the sea, leaving behind a series of afterimages as he charged into the crowd.
The pitch-black Golden Crow True Fire swallowed the void, recklessly burning everything in its path. The Emperor Realm masters who were struck by it were all killed, none of them able to resist it. Even some of the Low Rank Open Heaven Stage masters who were mixed in with the crowd quickly retreated in fear.
Balls of bloody mist exploded in the air as charred corpses fell from the sky. In the Star City, countless pairs of eyes stared blankly at this scene, almost forgetting to breathe as everyone felt a great shock.
Before today, no one had ever thought that he could kill thousands of people by himself. Even if Yang Kai lost in the end, just this series of actions was enough to make everyone remember him.
In the Great Ruins Boundary, outside Scarlet Star’s Star City, there was a young man with black hair fluttering in the wind, acting in a way that ordinary people couldn’t. His boldness were truly eye-opening.
The Space Laws lingered around Yang Kai’s body, and wherever there were more people, he would rush forward to kill. Yang Kai’s killing intent soared, and his figure became unstable, leaving behind afterimages as he flew through the air, as if there were several Yang Kai in the sky.
“Junior, don’t act so presumptuously again!” Luo Qingyun grit his teeth and shouted. With a shake of his sword, it transformed into nine sword lights that slashed towards Yang Kai.
He had been searching for Yang Kai’s flaws and chasing after his footsteps, but Yang Kai’s movements were simply too fast and his Space Teleportation was unpredictable. He had tried several times but had failed to find an opportunity, so now that he had finally found an opportunity, he didn’t hesitate to use his Divine Ability.
Nine flashes of sword light cut through the void, instantly arriving in front of Yang Kai and slashing his body.
Thud, thud, thud... It didn’t sound like it had hit his body, but rather like it had hit some kind of artifact. Yang Kai’s body trembled and his clothes were torn. From the cracks, his jade white skin was cut open and golden blood flowed out, his vitality surging!
Luo Qingyun’s heart trembled as he stared at this scene in a daze.
Previously, when he had failed to kill Yang Kai with his sword, he had already noticed that this guy’s physical body was extraordinary, but now, even his Divine Ability had failed to kill him?
He was a Sword Cultivator who specialized in killing. If even he couldn’t kill Yang Kai, then with so many people present, who could kill him? Ordinary cultivators wouldn’t even be able to injure him.
Sure enough, after the nine sword lights, countless attacks flew towards Yang Kai, but Yang Kai only used his Dragon Shield Secret Technique to block them.
When the multicolored light dissipated, the Dragon Shield that surrounded Yang Kai’s body shattered, but he did not suffer much damage.
Luo Qingyun’s heart sank as he turned to look towards Zhong Fan.
Right now, only Zhong Fan, a Fifth Order Open Heaven Stage master, would have a chance to cut down Yang Kai, but as far as he could see, Zhong Fan was currently healing Lu Xue’s injuries. It was unknown what kind of method Yang Kai had used to force Zhong Fan into a corner.
Was this also part of his plan? Luo Qingyun couldn’t believe it. No wonder he had released Lu Xue so easily. He had thought that this fellow was a fool, but now it seemed he was actually quite shrewd!
Unable to count on Zhong Fan, Luo Qingyun’s expression suddenly became solemn as he shouted, “Disciples of Sword Pavilion, follow my orders and form the Starry Sky Great Array!”
“As you command!” The hundreds of Sword Pavilion disciples’ voices shook the sky, each of them greatly excited, as if they had been waiting for this moment.
There weren’t many Sword Pavilion disciples, only about three hundred. Among these three thousand people, only ten percent of them had died at Yang Kai’s hands.
On the other hand, Sword Pavilion’s losses were relatively small, because they had formed the Starfall Sword Array from the very beginning to resist Yang Kai’s Rings of Flames and Attack. With both sides attacking and defending each other, it was undoubtedly much better than the scattered sand like Thunder Light.
It could be said that ninety-nine percent of the cultivators who died at Yang Kai’s hands were Thunder Light Disciples.
With forty or fifty people in a group, the Starfall Sword Array had already been formed, and Sword Qi filled the world. Now that Luo Qingyun had given the order, the Sword Arrays rapidly moved towards Luo Qingyun.
In less than three breaths of time, the auras of the Starfall Sword Array had been tightly linked together, with Luo Qingyun as the center. Sword intent soared into the sky and gathered on Luo Qingyun’s body, piercing a hole in the sky.
Starry Sky Great Array, complete!
Luo Qingyun’s aura rose steadily, and even though he was being suppressed by the World Laws of the Great Ruins Boundary, he still showed signs of breaking through the Emperor Realm and breaking through to the Open Heaven Stage. He stared at Yang Kai, who was still slaughtering his enemies, his eyes filled with indifference!
The Starry Sky Great Array was the Sword Pavilion’s most powerful Great Array. With this Sword Array, even without Zhong Fan, Luo Qingyun was confident he could kill Yang Kai here.
“That brat is in trouble,” Chen Tian Fei sighed and slowly shook his head, “In the end, he’s still too young, showing off too much of his strength and not knowing how to restrain himself!”
Lady Qin also wore a solemn expression, “I heard that the Sect Master of Sword Pavilion came from a very large force, but for some unknown reason, he had wandered outside and established Sword Pavilion. This Starfall Sword Array and Starry Sky Great Array are both the Arrays of that force.”
Ouyang Lie nodded and said, “I’ve also heard of this before. I’ve only seen the Starry Sky Great Array once, its power… is truly extraordinary. With this array, my Scarlet Star and Thunder Light will never be a match for Sword Pavilion.”
At the same time, Yang Kai, who was rushing through the crowd, also instinctively felt a sense of crisis. His skin felt like it had been pierced by needles, and without any hesitation, he summoned his Earth Element energy from his Dao Seal, condensing his Dragon Shield again, one after another.
“Junior, it is your honor to die under my Sword Pavilion’s Great Array!” Luo Qingyun said lightly and pointed his sword towards Yang Kai.
Under the influence of his aura, the hundreds of Sword Pavilion disciples in the grand formation also began moving.
From a distance, Yang Kai could no longer see anyone inside the Starry Sky Great Array, only Sword Intent lingering in the air. A massive sword beam tore through the sky and struck Yang Kai.
The sound of something breaking could be heard.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the layers of Dragon Shield on Yang Kai’s body burst apart one after another. Even though he was frantically using his Dao Seals to repair them, he was still unable to keep up with the speed at which they were breaking.
In just seven or eight breaths of time, the Dragon Shield completely disappeared.
“Die!” Luo Qingyun shouted happily from within the sword light.
With a loud bang, a pitch-black flame engulfed Yang Kai’s body and the burning Golden Crow True Fire swept towards the sword light like it had a mind of its own. Wherever the black flame passed, the sword light would instantly dim, as if it had been burnt to ashes.
In the eyes of the cultivators in Star City, it was as if the black fire had swallowed the sword light and the huge sword light was shrinking inch by inch.
Yang Kai’s figure also continued to retreat. Although the Golden Crow True Fire’s power was extraordinary, the Starry Sky Great Array was still formed by hundreds of people, and with Luo Qingyun, a Fourth Order Open Heaven Stage Master, controlling it, its power was truly immense.
“Stop trying to resist!” Luo Qingyun shouted, “Insulting my Sword Pavilion, today you will die!”
With Luo Qingyun’s angry roar, the sword light which had been partially destroyed suddenly expanded and pierced through the void, showing faint signs of tearing through the pitch-black flames as it shot towards Yang Kai.
Once this Golden Crow True Fire was broken, even with Yang Kai’s Dragon Transformation physique, it would not end well for him.
In this life and death struggle, even the Thunder Light people were unable to intervene. They could only watch from afar, not even daring to approach a thousand feet, lest they be affected by the sword light or the black flames.
In the void, the Golden Crow True Fire that had been pushed to its limit was now evenly matched with the Terrifying Sword Light.
In Star City, Chen Tian Fei suddenly frowned, “Something’s wrong!”
“What’s wrong?” Bei Yushan asked curiously.
“In such a situation, why hasn’t this little brat used his full strength yet?” Chen Tian Fei asked in confusion.
“He didn’t even use his full strength?” Bei Yushan’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Chen Tian Fei said solemnly, “Did you forget that this boy has a long spear in his hand? Although I don’t know where that spear came from, it must be a powerful artifact. Why didn’t he use it?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the several Managers of Scarlet Star fell into deep thought. How could they not know about the existence of the Azure Dragon Spear? That day, Gan Hong had died under that stunning spear.
The might of this spear was something that even a Fourth Order Open Heaven Stage couldn’t resist, so if he were to use it now, even if he couldn’t resolve the current crisis, it wouldn’t be so bad!
In a life or death situation, who would hide their strength?
Bei Yushan scratched his head and said, “Manager Chen, after hearing what you said, it seems like his condition has always been a bit off.” In this life and death struggle, Yang Kai’s reaction seemed to be instinctual, as if his mind wasn’t on this battlefield, but this was truly inconceivable. Facing so many enemies by himself and not paying attention to the battlefield, how could he not care about his own life?
Lady Qin’s eyes suddenly narrowed as she seemed to recall something and covered her red lips, “Do you remember what he said before the battle?”
Ouyang Bing lowered his head in contemplation before slowly reciting, “Disturbing my cultivation and distracting my mind, today I will use your dog lives to cultivate my Divine Ability!”
Chen Tian Fei’s face was filled with shock as he cried out, “Is this brat trying to stimulate his potential between life and death to cultivate some kind of Divine Ability?”
