Yang Kai pondered for a long time before saying, “It’s fine if you want to go, take this with you.”
Saying so, he handed Lu Xue two Space Spirit Beads and told her how to use them. Lu Xue nodded and accepted them. With these Space Spirit Beads in hand, even if Lu Xue encountered any danger, there was a high chance she could escape.
Of course, this was under the premise that she could operate it properly. The Space Spirit Bead had been personally refined by Yang Kai, and it could only be used in pairs. One Space Spirit Bead could be used to locate the target, while the other could be used to instantly leap across space.
Putting away the Space Spirit Bead, Lu Xue took the initiative to leave the Shadowless Gauze.
Although the two sides were separated by a thousand of kilometers, this distance was nothing to a Mid Rank Open Heaven cultivator, so the moment Lu Xue appeared, a powerful Divine Sense swept over from a thousand kilometers away.
Lu Xue’s World Force fluctuated wildly as she intentionally displayed her strength to attract the attention of the ship’s master.
Seizing this opportunity, Yang Kai gritted his teeth and silently rushed towards the Demon Territory with Guo Ziyan.
In less than the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the two of them arrived at the crack in the Demon Territory’s World Barrier. Turning their heads, they saw Lu Xue slowly boarding the ship.
Although Lu Xue was a Fifth Order Open Heeaven Stage master, she didn’t know the depths of her enemy’s strength, so rashly entering someone else’s ship was also a huge risk. If that person wanted to harm her, her situation would definitely be dire.
Knowing that Lu Xue was trying to create an opportunity for him to escape, Yang Kai didn’t hesitate and plunged into the Demon Territory.
From the outside, the Demon Territory looked like a giant strange fish, but the space inside was extremely vast. As soon as he entered, Yang Kai felt the World Energy fluctuating violently, as if the entire Demon Territory was shaking.
At the same time, an aura that was closely related to him appeared.
It was the aura of the Embodiment.
His Embodiment was originally a Soul Clone that had entered the Stone Puppet body, so it could be said to be his Embodiment. Just like how Yang Kai could sense the existence of his Embodiment from a certain distance, his Embodiment could also sense Yang Kai.
Sensing that his main body had entered, the Embodiment immediately sent out a message.
Yang Kai quickly understood what was happening.
Since he left that year, he had left behind a new Demon Territory and allowed his Embodiment to take over. With the assistance of Bei Li Mo and Chang Tian, the Demon Territory had become more prosperous.
Originally, everything had been flourishing, but half a year ago, an uninvited guest had suddenly arrived at the periphery of the Demon Territory. This uninvited guest was none other than the ship Yang Kai had seen before.
After a period of investigation, the flying ship had launched an attack on the Demon Territory, so the Embodiment naturally wouldn’t just sit back and wait for death. It joined forces with Bei Li Mo and Chang Tian to resist while simultaneously urging them to flee.
Several months passed by in the blink of an eye.
Embodiment, Chang Tian, and Bei Li Mo’s true strength was far inferior to the Open Heaven Stage, but in the Demon Territory, these three were equivalent to Great Emperors in the Star Boundary. With their geographical advantage, they could mobilize the Demon Territory’s World Force and display the strength of a Low Rank Open Heaven cultivator.
It was thanks to the Demon Territory’s resources that the Embodiment and the others were able to contend with the enemy for such a long time, but even so, the enemy was still extremely difficult to deal with. Although they had injured many people, none of them had been able to kill them. On the contrary, the enemy had executed the wheel tactics very well, and if anyone was injured, they would immediately retreat, allowing their companions to take over.
Yang Kai had seen a Low Rank Open Heaven escape while bathed in blood.
After all, the strength of the Embodiment and the others was too low. If Low Rank Open Heaven wanted to escape, there was no way they could stay.
There were three Demon Saints in the Demon Territory, so the enemy had maintained five Low Rank Open Heaven masters to suppress them in all aspects.
Even now, his Embodiment could still fight. After all, he was a Stone Puppet and didn’t know what fatigue was, but whether it was Chang Tian or Bei Li Mo, both of them had consumed a great deal of energy and were at the end of their tether. If Yang Kai didn’t come, in less than a month, the Demon Territory would be invaded and they would be like fish on a chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered.
Receiving this information only took a moment. After understanding the current situation of the Demon Territory, Yang Kai grinned maliciously.
After putting away the Shadowless Gauze, the figures of Guo Ziyan and Yang Kai appeared, waving his hands at the same time, revealing a figure in front of them.
It was Yu Rumeng.
When Rumeng appeared, she was still a bit confused. She didn’t know how Yang Kai had released her so quickly, but she quickly realized that this was the Demon Territory. She was also a Demon Saint born in the Demon Territory, and after obtaining the approval of this World Will, she naturally had a close connection with this world.
As if sensing something was wrong, Rumeng frowned.
Yang Kai briefly explained the current situation of the Demon Territory, causing her beautiful eyes to fill with murderous intent.
Yang Kai comforted her a little before quietly communicating with his Embodiment and informing Rumeng and Guo Ziyan of his plan. Both of them nodded seriously.
The next moment, an invisible force wrapped around the three of them, causing their Space Laws to fluctuate wildly before suddenly disappearing.
At the same time, on a battlefield hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, the Embodiment, Bei Li Mo, and Chang Tian were separated by five Low Rank Open Heaven.
The Embodiment was the current master of the Demon Territory and had cultivated Wu Kuang’s Heaven Devouring Battle Law, but it was not a flesh and blood body, so it did not know pain or fatigue, so it was the strongest of the three. At this moment, there were two Low Rank Open Heaven attacking him from the left and right. The Embodiment roared as it repeatedly used its World Force to fight these two Low Rank Open Heaven, each of them putting their lives on the line, causing his two opponents to tremble in fear.
On the other side, Bei Li Mo was entangled by a thin woman and was unable to escape. The woman also had a Low Rank Open Heaven cultivation, so even if it was a one on one fight, she still had the advantage. After all, Bei Li Mo had been fighting with the enemy for several months and was on the verge of death. At this moment, her face was extremely pale and her body was covered in blood.
However, her opponent was only pestering her like a cat playing with a mouse, exhausting her strength.
Compared to Bei Li Mo, the situation on Chang Tian’s side was extremely dangerous. Just like his Embodiment, his opponent is two Low Rank Open Heaven, and every move is a killer move!
Chang Tian had already reverted back to his original form, and a giant Demon Dragon appeared, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws as it flew through the air. Its eyes, which were even larger than a house, were filled with veins of blood. Its sharp claws had been broken, and its scales had been sent flying countless times. Black dragon blood constantly dripped down from its body, creating massive craters in the ground.
The battle power of the three Demon Saints had been divided, the enemy’s intentions were clear. They were obviously trying to destroy them one by one!
First, they would kill Chang Tian. After they killed Chang Tian, the two Low Rank Open Heaven masters would be able to support another battlefield at will. At that time, Bei Li Mo and his Embodiment would not be able to resist.
Chang Tian also knew that he was the key to winning this battle, so he desperately burned his blood essence.
Heaven and earth lost all color as the World Force collided with one another. The surrounding battlefield was filled with void cracks, and with the battlefield as the center, all the World Laws within a radius of several hundred thousand kilometers were destroyed.
However, even if he tried his best, he still couldn’t see any hope of victory. Chang Tian’s eyelids became heavier, and his strength almost dried up.
He didn’t have much lifespan to begin with, and before the Demon Territory was swallowed up, he had been stranded on the Hundred Spirit Continent, he had taken a liking to Yang Kai and wanted him to become his successor.
If it weren’t for the fact that his lifespan was nearing its end, how could Chang Tian have such thoughts?
The only reason he could persist until now was because he was burning his vitality. After this battle, whether he won or lost, he wouldn’t be able to live much longer.
In a moment of distraction, a flaw appeared in his defense. The eyes of the two Low Rank Open Heaven masters who were fighting with him were extremely sharp, so they naturally wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity. One of them swiped his long sword and became one with his sword, transforming into a stream of light that slashed towards Chang Tian’s chest.
Sword light flashed!
Dragon scales flew, dragon blood splashed, and the sword pierced through his chest!
Chang Tian’s eyes suddenly bulged as he madly wriggled the flesh on his chest, finally managing to block the sword before it pierced his heart. The pain caused him to roar as he raised his dragon claw and tried to grab his chest.
At this moment, the other Low Rank Open Heaven let out a low roar and brandished his halberd, raising it high up to block the giant dragon claw.
The scene froze at this moment. The two of them and the dragon were locked in a life and death struggle. Chang Tian’s beard fluttered in the wind as the Dragon Roar continued to echo throughout the Demon Territory.
As for the two Low Rank Open Heaven masters, they knew that they had reached a critical juncture, so they didn’t hold back at all.
The Dragon Claw that was held in place couldn’t move, but the long sword that was locked in his flesh stabbed towards his heart inch by inch. Every inch that the long sword moved forward, it made an ear-piercing sound.
Suddenly, Chang Tian's eyes widened as he stared behind his enemy in shock, as if he had just witnessed something incredible. His eyes, which had been filled with despair, suddenly flashed with a brilliant light.
At the same time, the two Low Rank Open Heaven masters who were locked in a deadlock with Chang Tian felt a chill run down their spines.
The sword-wielding Low Rank Open Heaven hastily turned his head and saw a burly figure appear behind him at some point, wielding an axe as he grinned maliciously and chopped down.
This person was shocked!
This strike was extremely powerful, and judging from the aura of the World Force, the one attacking him was a Third Order Open Heaven Stage!
He himself was only a Third Order.
Where did this guy come from?
The aura of death enveloped him, and at this moment of life and death, he hurriedly pulled out his sword, but the long sword had been sealed by Chang Tian’s flesh and blood, so how could it be pulled back so quickly?
Left with no choice, he could only abandon his sword and quickly form a series of hand seals, raising his hands high as the World Force behind him flashed.
With a loud bang, the axe fell and the man’s face went pale as he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. He felt his Dao Seal and the small universe world in his body tremble violently as the blood in his chest roiled and he almost vomited.
Under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t have been so weak. After all, he was also a Third Order Open Heaven Stage master, and his strength was on par with Guo Ziyan’s, but how could he display his full strength when he was ambushed? It was a hasty response, so not being struck to death was a good response.
A massive force came from the front and he was forced back involuntarily, slamming into Chang Tian’s body before bouncing back, his figure like a falling leaf in a raging storm.
