Yang Kai was hiding not because he wanted to sit back and watch the tigers fight, but because he really felt something was wrong.
Not to mention the fact that these Sea Race masters had been prepared to set up an ambush in the deepest part of the Divine Temple to lure them in, if the High Priest wielding the Ice Soul Cold Moon Bead was willing to take action, Qu Huachang and Ning Daoran would be doomed!
Just now, Yang Kai had personally witnessed this High Priest activate the power of the Ice Soul Cold Moon Bead.
However, for some reason, he didn’t intend to act. Instead, he kept observing Ning Daoran and Qu Huachang. What was even stranger was that Yang Kai didn’t sense any killing intent from him.
Seemingly sensing something, the High Priest suddenly turned his head and glanced towards Urala’s corpse, but he quickly withdrew his gaze and focused on the battle.
The four Sea Race masters were engaged in a fierce battle with the two Cave Heaven and Paradise disciples, but after all, they were no match for Qu Huachang and Ning Daoran. In less than half an incense stick’s worth of time, Qu Huachang and Ning Daoran broke through again.
The High Priest waved his scepter again and the Ice Soul Cold Moon Bead’s aura surged out, forcing Qu Huachang and Ning Daoran to remain behind.
“Are you done or not!?” Qu Huachang’s nose was almost crooked from anger, and after landing, she glared fiercely at the High Priest.
The High Priest remained calm and composed.
After a while, Qu Huachang and Ning Daoran joined forces to force back the four Sea Race masters, but instead of breaking through, they all rushed towards the High Priest.
The High Priest chuckled, “Go back!”
With a wave of his scepter, the icy aura once again filled the air. Qu Huachang and Ning Daoran had suffered two losses, both of them taking the initiative to retreat.
Their heart sank as they realized that they would not be able to escape this time. With this damned High Priest holding a scepter guarding this place, the two of them could forget about leaving unless they killed him. However, the power of this scepter was immeasurable, so how could they possibly kill the High Priest?
At this moment, two figures suddenly appeared like ghosts. No one had discovered where they had come from, as if they had appeared out of thin air.
Everyone was shocked.
Qu Huachang turned her head and saw one of the figures rush towards the High Priest like a dragon from the sea while the other rushed towards her and Ning Daoran.
It was Yang Kai and Gu Pan!
Qu Huachang was both surprised and delighted, quickly shouting, “Little Brother Yang, help me kill him!” She had suffered several losses under the High Priest’s hands, so she naturally held a grudge.
On the altar, the High Priest’s expression also changed slightly, but he quickly calmed down and sneered, “There are actually two more, very good, very good. The Old Ancestor will definitely like you.”
Saying so, he gently waved the scepter in his hand. As he did so, the Ice Soul Cold Moon Bead began to emit a gentle light. Although it looked like moonlight, it was actually extremely cold.
Qu Huachang shouted, “Little Brother Yang, be careful, this is an Innate Ice Element treasure!” Afraid that Yang Kai didn’t know how powerful this treasure was, she quickly warned him.
Before she could finish her sentence, Yang Kai had already plunged into the moonlight and his figure suddenly froze.
When Yang Kai saw the High Priest casually force Qu Huachang and Ning Daoran back, he hadn’t had a clear understanding of the Ice Soul Cold Moon Bead’s power, but now that he was facing it head-on, he had a deep understanding.
Its power was indeed great, and when the chill reached his body, his blood almost froze, even the power of the Dao Seal was unable to circulate.
This High Priest had definitely not used the full power of the Ice Soul Cold Moon Bead, otherwise, it would not have been as simple as just slowing down his movements. It was highly likely he would have frozen him into an ice sculpture.
Qu Huachang’s face was filled with despair. She had thought that Yang Kai’s appearance would catch the High Priest off guard, but who would have thought he would also fall for it.
Men were indeed unreliable!
Just as she was thinking this, she heard a faint dragon roar, clear and resonant, and a Dragon Prestige spread out. Yang Kai’s figure broke through the moonlight and the blood in his body surged like a group of dragons as he rushed towards the High Priest at a speed faster than before.
Qu Huachang’s beautiful eyes flashed a strange light.
The High Priest was also shocked. This was the first time he had encountered an existence that could resist the power of the Ice Soul Cold Moon Bead, but he had been in a high position for many years, so although he was shocked, he didn’t panic. Instead, he began to speak in a profound and obscure language, and the Ice Soul Cold Moon Bead on the scepter flashed with a brilliant light, sending an even stronger chill towards Yang Kai.
“Open!” Yang Kai shouted.
Behind him, a round sun appeared. This round sun hung high in the sky like a real sun, emitting a dazzling light that illuminated the depths of the underground temple.
In the round sun, the Golden Crow danced and cried!
“Divine Ability Manifestation!” Ning Daoran’s expression changed as his Dao Heart, which had always been impervious to all things, trembled slightly.
The power of the sun and the moonlight were evenly matched, causing the Ice Soul Cold Moon Bead to glow brightly. This wasn’t because the High Priest had taken the initiative to activate it, but rather because the Ice Soul Cold Moon Bead, an Innate Treasure, instinctively responded. The corrosion of the moonlight was more than ten times stronger than the High Priest’s previous power.
The sun and moon shone together!
Scorching hot and icy cold forces intertwined in the depths of the Divine Temple, causing everyone to feel uncomfortable and forced to resist with all their might.
Under the High Priest’s panicked gaze, Yang Kai had already arrived in front of him, one hand grabbing towards the scepter while the other clenched into a fist and punched towards his face.
The High Priest wanted to dodge, but the Ice Soul Cold Moon Bead’s power was too much for him to bear, causing him to freeze in place as he watched the fist rapidly expand in front of him.
With a loud bang, the High Priest flew out, Yang Kai grabbed the scepter, and threw it into the Mysterious Small World.
The moonlight dissipated and the sun disappeared.
Yang Kai withdrew his Manifestation and called out to everyone, “Retreat!”
With the Big Treasure in hand, it was naturally best to retreat.
Qu Huachang and Ning Daoran were also decisive. Under the guidance of Gu Pan, they immediately forced back their opponents, and in the blink of an eye, four figures rushed up, broke through the top of the Divine Temple, and rushed into the Holy City.
At this moment, the Holy City was also in a state of chaos. Xu Zhen’s Yuan Magnetic Divine Light and Lin Feng’s two blades clashed, fighting a group of Sea Race masters.
Below the Divine Temple, the High Priest hurriedly got up, his face pale as he trembled in anger, shouting, “Follow me and awaken the Old Ancestor!”
The four Sea Race masters didn’t dare to be negligent, quickly arriving beside the altar and sitting down in all directions while chanting a strange tune, coordinating with the High Priest to perform a profound technique and sending it to an unknown location.
Inside the city, Xu Zhen and Lin Feng, who were fighting with bloodshot eyes, saw Yang Kai and the others rush out of the temple. Before they could figure out what was happening, Qu Huachang called out, “Let’s go!”
“You succeeded?” Xu Zhen asked in surprise.
Qu Huachang nodded.
Xu Zhen didn’t hesitate any longer. With a sweep of his Yuan Magnetic Divine Light, he dragged the figures of several Sea Race masters and rushed out of the Holy City. Lin Feng grit his teeth and quickly followed.
The six figures hurriedly fled as a large number of Sea Race chased after them.
Suddenly, a terrifying aura rose from the sea. This aura was tyrannical and pure, as if a sleeping dragon had awoken.
The faces of Yang Kai and the others all changed dramatically.
No one had expected the Sea Race to have such a terrifying foundation. Although the Sea Race’s masters and High Priest were powerful, they weren’t a match for them, but this awakening aura made them feel like they couldn’t resist it. If this aura alone was so powerful, how powerful must its owner be?
On this island, all of the Sea Race who felt this aura prostrated themselves on the ground and shouted, “Welcome, Old Ancestor!”
Even the Sea Clan masters who were chasing after the six of them stopped and knelt in the air, motionless.
“A ruthless one is coming!” Yang Kai shivered and quickly called out to everyone, “Come here!”
Originally, he didn’t want to expose too much, but now he couldn’t care less. If he wanted to escape, he could only rely on his Space Ability.
Gu Pan immediately ran to his side while Qu Huachang and Xu Zhen also hurried over. Ning Daoran hesitated for a moment before quickly joining them.
Only Lin Feng coldly snorted, his figure transforming into a streak of light as he flew in another direction, obviously not intending to escape with everyone else.
Yang Kai sighed in his heart and couldn’t care less about him. Raising his hand, he summoned the Space Spirit Bead and prepared to use his Space Laws to leave this place.
At this moment, a massive creature rose up from the sea and rapidly covered the world. This creature was over a thousand zhang long and had a terrifying aura, casting a large shadow over the sea.
“What a big shark!” Gu Pan exclaimed.
“It’s the Holy Spirit!” Qu Huachang’s expression changed, “Holy Spirit Leviathan Shark!”
Xu Zhen shivered, “Why is there a Holy Spirit here? Is this the Sea Clan’s Old Ancestor?”
In the depths of his heart, he cried out. With the Holy Spirit here, it would be impossible to escape today.
“Don’t resist!” Yang Kai shouted. Without any hesitation, he quickly activated the power of the Space Spirit Bead and the Space Laws instantly enveloped everyone, connecting to Scarlet Star City hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.
At this moment, the Leviathan Sharko pened its bloody mouth and bit down towards everyone.
This single bite seemed capable of swallowing the heavens and earth.
Everyone who had been enveloped by the power of the Space Spirit Bead felt the surrounding space become chaotic and unstable, as if it would shatter at any moment.
Yang Kai shouted in a low voice, “The situation is not good, the void has been disturbed, so I can’t locate my destination. Everyone, be careful.”
Before he could finish his sentence, a series of spatial cracks appeared around him, and before Yang Kai could react, these cracks had already swallowed everyone and disappeared.
Yang Kai did the same and fell into a crack, causing the surrounding space to distort and he couldn’t control his body, secretly complaining in his heart. If he had known this would happen, he would have left the moment he snatched the Ice Soul Cold Moon Bead.
However, at that time, he had thought that since everyone had come together, they should naturally retreat together. But now, Lin Feng was definitely facing a great disaster, and no one knew if the others would live or die.
In the end, he didn’t even have time to ask Gu Pan about Zhang Ruoxi.
