Old Bai’s words enlightened Yang Kai.
When he first heard about the Blood Monster Cave Heaven, he was a little puzzled. Blood Monster Cave Heaven was a small universe world left behind after an Eighth Order Open Heaven Stgage cultivator died. Inside it was an inheritance and all the wealth of an Eighth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator. Who could ignore such astonishing benefits? Even the Cave Heaven Paradise would covet it.
Since they covet it, why didn’t the many Cave Heaven Paradise firmly control it and instead allow other cultivators to participate in it, turning it into a grand event that would sweep through the entire 3000 Worlds?
He didn’t understand this at first, so he didn’t think too much about it.
Only now did he realize that it wasn’t that the Cave Heaven Paradise didn’t want to do so, but rather that they couldn’t.
In the beginning, Blood Monster Cave Heaven had very few entrances, so they were able to guard the entrances and prevent other forces from entering, only selecting disciples from their respective forces to explore. But now, any place in the entire Blood Monster Territory could have an entrance, so how could the various Cave Heaven Paradise be able to guard against it?
It was for this reason that other Second Class, Third Class, or even Unranked forces had the opportunity to enter the Blood Monster Cave Heaven to share some benefits.
Old Bai continued, “The entrance to the Blood Monster Cave Heaven has also gradually become extremely unstable. Sometimes, even if it appears in front of you, it will only be a flash of light. Perhaps it will disappear before you even enter it. Even if it doesn’t disappear, each entrance can only withstand one person’s entry and will collapse.”
“Each entrance can only accommodate one person?” Yang Kai asked in surprise.
Old Bai nodded lightly, “Since that’s the case, you should understand why I said that although there are many cultivators who have come to the Blood Monster Territory, there won’t be many who can actually enter.”
Yang Kai suddenly understood.
According to Old Bai, if one wanted to enter the Blood Monster Cave Heaven, they would first have to compete for the entrance. Perhaps there would be an entrance between several cultivators, but that entrance could only accommodate one person and would disappear, so the others could only watch helplessly.
As such, only a small number of people were able to seize this opportunity to enter Blood Monster Cave Heaven.
Old Bai snorted lightly, “Over the years, when Blood Monster Cave Heaven opened, there were more than a million cultivators gathered in Blood Monster Territory. There are tens of millions of them, but most of them came here for nothing.”
Yang Kai nodded in agreement. Now that they had arrived at the Blood Monster Territory, all he could see were flying artifacts and cultivators scurrying about. There were indeed quite a number of them, and this was only what he had seen and not what he had seen. After all, the entire Blood Monster Territory was in this state.
Pondering for a moment, Yang Kai turned to Lang Qingshan and the others and said, “When the time is right, all of you should enter my Mysterious Small World.”
This time, quite a number of people had come with him, not to mention Lang Qingshan’s group of people who had followed him since they were in the Great Ruins Boundary. Now, there was also Guo Miao, the First Inn’s Chef, and the Accountant.
With so many people vying for the entrance, they might not necessarily be able to obtain it, but if they were to hide in the Mysterious Small World and allowed him to bring them in, it would be different. At that time, as long as he could snatch an entrance, everyone would naturally be happy.
After arriving at the Blood Monster Cave Heaven, he would release everyone.
With his attainments in the Dao of Space, it would be easy for him to snatch an entrance in this massive Blood Monster Territory. After all, there were tens of thousands of entrances.
This was his original plan, so when Lang Qingshan and the others heard this, they looked at each other and didn’t immediately respond.
Yang Kai asked curiously, “What? Do you have any ideas?”
Cunning Face chuckled and rubbed his hands together, “Sir, we would like to give it a try ourselves. The last time we followed Sir into the Unaging Land, Sir had always been protecting us, but in the end, we were unable to help much in the Mysterious Small World. Since we have followed Sir, we naturally have to do our part. It’s not good to always be under Sir’s protection.”
Lang Qingshan cupped his fists and said, “Sir, during these past few days in the Asura Arena, this humble subordinate has understood the truth. Only by experiencing trials and tribulations can one rapidly grow. The flowers that are raised in a greenhouse will not live long. In the future, we would like to follow Sir through the storm and achieve great things. We hope that Sir will allow us to rely on ourselves in this Blood Monster Cave Heaven.”
Yang Kai stared at him for a moment before turning to the others, “Do you all think so too?”
Everyone cupped their fists and said in unison, “Please allow us, Sir.”
Yang Kai stroked his chin and nodded, “I’m very happy that you have the heart to fight yourself, if you want to gain experience on your own, it’s simple. After entering the Blood Monster Cave Heaven, you can go on your own. Before that, I’ll bring you in.”
With more than thirty people, they would need more than thirty entrances, so it was impossible to snatch all of them. If they were to fight for them one by one, there would definitely be some who would fail, and there would be many of them. It would be a pity to miss such a rare opportunity.
No one had any objections to this, all of them agreeing.
After the discussion was settled, the Proprietress said, “Let’s go, and take a piece of territory.”
“Take a piece of territory?” Yang Kai was stunned.
Old Bai explained, “Right now, it should be a few days before the Blood Monster Cave Heaven opens. Since we’ve come here ahead of time, we naturally have to occupy an advantageous territory. Look outside, those with a little bit of strength occupy a large piece of space, not allowing others to approach. That place is their territory, so if an entrance appears in this area, they will naturally be able to approach it.”
Yang Kai understood.
The Lotus Fall once again flew into the depths of the void, searching for a place to occupy. The group from the First Inn hadn’t arrived too late, but many of them had arrived even earlier, so even after searching for half a day, they were still unable to find a suitable location. Along the way, various forces occupied large or small territories while Open Heaven Stage masters constantly patrolled the edges of these territories, driving away cultivators who had no intention of approaching.
In the distance, Yang Kai even saw a giant palace floating in the air. The palace was hundreds of thousands of kilometers in radius and was completely empty. Many artifacts and cultivators flew around it.
Needless to say, this giant was also an artifact owned by some kind of Cave Heaven or a Paradise. Only a First Class force like this could create such a treasure. This was a symbol of status and prestige. If it were to be displayed in the void, everyone would have to give it some face.
There was more than one such giant palace. There were 36 Cave Heaven, and 72 Paradise, a total of 108 first class forces in the 3000 Worlds. When the Blood Monster Cave Heaven opened, each of these forces would send out a large number of disciples and a number of palace artifacts.
Lotus Fall is also considered a good grade, but compared to the other party, it was nothing.
There were many artifacts and cultivators coming and going, and most of them were like the First Inn, searching for an advantageous position without an owner. Generally speaking, everyone was more restrained and had a first-come-first-serve invisible rule. If one of them occupied a certain spot, the other would naturally avoid it.
However, there were always people who liked to break the rules and were confident in their strength.
As a result, many places in Blood Monster Territory had erupted into conflict, resulting in a complete mess.
Along the way, the Lotus Fall traveled the void and saw more than a dozen large and small battles. A group of Emperor Realm disciples fought back and forth, some of them even engaging in life and death battles. Even the Open Heaven Stage masters who were leading the group were caught up in these battles, their Divine Abilities and Secret Technique erupting as blood and severed limbs flew about chaotically.
Yang Kai even saw the remains of many artifacts. These artifacts didn’t look any worse than the Lotus Fall, a testament to the intensity of the battle.
Even before the opening of the Blood Monster Cave Heaven, it is already like this. If it really opened, what would happen? Just thinking about it made him shudder.
Although the First Inn was quite famous, with the Proprietress and Yue He, two Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage masters, Old Bai, and Guo Ziyan, a total of four Open Heaven Stage masters, it was still a far cry from the Cave Heaven Paradise. As long as one saw a palace from the Cave Heaven Paradise, they would avoid it.
After searching for half a day, they still couldn’t find a suitable place.
Just as Yang Kai was secretly worried about finding a suitable spot, the Proprietress suddenly pointed to the side and said, “Go that way.”
Yang Kai turned his head and saw that in the void, there was a large flying ship with many people standing on its deck.
Being too far away, Yang Kai couldn’t see who these people were, but judging from the size of this ship and the number of people it had dispatched, they should be a second class force.
The Proprietress was trying to snatch others territory…
The Lotus Fall spun and sped away.
The cultivators on the ship also noticed this and the crowd on the deck became restless. Several people suddenly flew up into the air and the shadows of the small universe world behind them flashed, showing off their powerful background as warning.
The Proprietress ignored it.
“It’s that old bastard!” Old Bai suddenly glared and cursed, seemingly recognizing the identity of the person on the ship.
At the same time, on the ship, the leading old man gathered his strength and shouted loudly, “Who goes there? Boundless Altar's Ling Chunqiu is here, I hope you can go elsewhere, this old master will be eternally grateful!”
“Gratitude your head!” Old Bai roared angrily and shouted towards Lang Qingshan and the others who were controlling the Lotus Fall, “Charge forward and kill this old dog!”
Lang Qingshan turned his head to look at Yang Kai with a look of inquiry.
Yang Kai nodded lightly.
Just now, he was wondering why the Proprietress, who wasn’t someone who liked to bully the weak, suddenly wanted to snatch someone else’s territory. It turned out that when enemies met, their eyes would burn.
The Proprietress and Boundless Altar seemed to have some enmity with each other. The last time Old Bai had broken through to Open Heaven, this Boundless Altar's Ling Chunqiu had even colluded with Qi Jin and the others to interfere, nearly killing Old Bai.
With the opening of Blood Monster Cave Heaven, Boundless Altar, as a Second Class Force, naturally wanted to take a share of the loot. Unexpectedly, they were discovered by the Proprietress.
If this Ling Chunqiu had been hiding in the Boundless Altar, the Proprietress might not have been able to do anything to him, but since they had encountered each other in the Blood Monster Territory, it was only natural for them to seek revenge and seize their territory.
