Black Crow Divine Monarch’s expression became gloomy for a moment before he coldly snorted, “What conditions do you have? Tell me, but let’s make things clear first. If you go too far, don’t blame this Monarch for bullying you and being ruthless.”
“Divine Monarch, don’t worry, my conditions aren’t excessive,” Yang Kai smiled, “I only want a Seventh Grade Gold Element and a Seventh Grade Yin Element resource.”
When Black Crow Divine Monarch heard this, he shook his head vigorously, “No.”
Yang Kai said, “Why must Divine Monarch be so unreasonable? You’re a High Rank Open Heaven cultivator. Although a Seventh Grade resource is valuable, it shouldn’t be a problem for you, right? Don’t you have any inheritance or something?”
Black Crow Divine Monarch said exasperatedly, “This Monarch has been imprisoned here for countless years by the Blood Monster Old Ghost, so how could I have any inheritance? If this Monarch had this thing on me, I would naturally give it to you, but now I don’t have it.” After pausing for a moment, he continued, “How about this, you help me open the Blood Monster Divine Palace. If you find what you need inside, this Monarch will take it out and give it to you. The Blood Monster Divine Palace should have a seventh grade resource.”
Yang Kai snorted, “Does Divine Monarch think I’m a three-year-old child?” If this guy had really found something good inside, how could he have brought it out and given it to him? It wasn’t the first time Yang Kai had encountered something like burning the bridge after crossing it.
Black Crow Divine Monarch said, “If you don’t want to believe this Monarch, then there’s nothing you can do about it, but this Monarch really doesn’t have anything you want right now, so this Monarch can't satisfy you.”
Yang Kai stroked his chin and pondered for a moment before saying, “Since Divine Monarch says so, I won’t make things difficult for you, so I’ll just exchange it for something you have. Right, I’ll take the Great Evolution Inextinguishable Blood Shine Scripture.”
When Black Crow Divine Monarch heard this, his face immediately sank, “Junior has gone too far!”
Yang Kai looked at him indifferently, “Divine Monarch doesn’t seem to have any sincerity. I want high rank resources, but you say you don’t have any, I want the Great Evolution Inextinguishable Blood Shine Scripture, don’t you have any?”
Black Crow Divine Monarch angrily said, “Who was the one who was insincere? This Monarch only asked you to help me restrain that Seventh Order Monster Beast for a while, but you actually dared to target the Blood Shine Scripture. If this Monarch hadn’t just reincarnated and had yet to restore his cultivation, he would have already killed you.”
“Even Divine Monarch knows that it’s a Seventh Order Monster Beast, so I must risk my life.”
“The Great Evolution Inextinguishable Blood Shine Scripture is the core cultivation technique of the Blood Dao Inheritance of Old Ghost Blood Monster. This King spent countless years to obtain it, so it’s impossible for me to hand it over to a second person, unless it’s a dead person!”
“This won’t do, that won’t do. Does Divine Monarch want to gain something without risking anything? Although I’m young, I can’t be easily deceived,” Yang Kai also wore an annoyed look.
Black Crow Divine Monarch’s brow wrinkled as he slowly said, “Boy, don’t make things difficult for me. These two conditions you have proposed, this Monarch simply unable to satisfy you, so why must you bring them up? Everyone is unhappy, let’s change to another one. If this Monarch can satisfy you, I will definitely not refuse.”
“Really?” Yang Kai raised his brow.
Black Crow Divine Monarch said proudly, “This Monarch will not deceive a junior like you.”
Yang Kai pretended to think about it for a moment before saying, “Since that’s the case, Divine Monarch, please give me the Blood Dao Restriction Secret Technique from the Great Evolution Inextinguishable Blood Shine Scripture.”
“Why do you want that thing?” Black Crow Divine Monarch looked at him suspiciously, but after a moment, he quickly reacted, “Who do you want to bring out from here?”
After sizing up Yang Kai for a while, he grinned and said, “This little brat has been beating around the bush for a long time, so it turns out that his goal is the Blood Dao Restriction Secret Technique.” He wore a smug look as if he had seen through Yang Kai’s heart.
Yang Kai didn’t show any expression, “Just tell me if you want to give it to me or not.”
Black Crow Divine Monarch naturally didn’t want to give it to Yang Kai, but no matter what, he had rejected Yang Kai twice, so he couldn’t refuse him three times. If that was really the case, then there was no need for them to continue discussing. What’s more, although the Blood Dao Secret Technique was a part of the Blood Shine Scripture, it didn’t involve the core of it, so there was no need to worry about Yang Kai comprehending it.
Immediately nodding, “This King can agree to this condition.”
Seeing him agree so readily, Yang Kai felt a little uneasy and frowned, “Divine Monarch, don’t try to fool me. I’ve also comprehended some of the Blood Shine Scripture, so I can tell if that Secret Technique is real or fake after seeing it. If Divine Monarch dares to play any tricks on it, don’t blame this little brat for turning hostile.”
Black Crow Divine Monarch coldly snorted, “Don’t worry, since this Monarch has promised you, I naturally won’t lie. Why are you so suspicious?”
Saying so, he took out a jade slip and sent out a message with his Divine Sense before tossing it to Yang Kai.
Yang Kai stretched out his hand to receive it while keeping a vigilant eye on Black Crow Divine Monarch while examining the contents of the jade slip, “Wait a moment!”
If it weren’t for his experience in the Blood Lake, Yang Kai wouldn’t have been able to discern the truth of this jade slip’s information, but he had previously comprehended a few inscriptions and had a certain understanding of the Great Evolution Inextinguishable Blood Shine Scripture. Now that he was carefully examining the information of this jade slip, he found no flaws.
Moreover, using this Blood Dao Restriction Secret Technique wasn’t too difficult. The key point was that it would consume one’s own Blood Essence. If only he could return to Ding Feng City, he could experiment with the cultivators of Ding Feng City. At that time, he would know whether the contents of this jade slip were real or fake.
While Yang Kai and Black Crow Divine Monarch were communicating through voice transmissions, although everyone was paying close attention to them, none of them knew what they were talking about. They only saw their expressions fluctuate, and a moment later, Black Crow Divine Monarch tossed a jade slip to Yang Kai before Yang Kai began examining it.
They couldn’t help exchanging glances, really wanting to know what kind of deal Black Crow Divine Monarch had made with Yang Kai…
After waiting for an incense stick’s worth of time, Black Crow Divine Monarch impatiently urged, “Boy, are you done? Is there a need to look so carefully? Once we leave Blood Monster Cave Heaven, you’ll have plenty of time to investigate.”
Yang Kai put away the jade slip and nodded, “Alright.”
Black Crow Divine Monarch showed a look of satisfaction, “Since it’s done, let’s begin. However, there’s something I have to say first…” He looked around, his face gradually becoming cold as he said gloomily, “If you want to enter Blood Monster Divine Palace, you need to work together. If this Monarch discovers someone secretly attacking others, this Monarch will kill them!”
Saying so, he glanced over at Yang Kai, Yin Xinzhao, and the others, obviously knowing that the two sides were not on good terms.
Yang Kai replied indifferently, “If others don’t provoke me, I won’t provoke them.”
Yin Xinzhao even cupped his fists and said, “Divine Monarch, don’t worry, in the current situation, the Blood Monster Divine Palace is the most important matter. This Junior knows his priorities.”
“Very good,” Black Crow Divine Monarch laughed loudly, “Since that’s the case, this King will explain how to break the seal. As long as we can break the seal and enter the Blood Monster Divine Palace, this Monarch will guarantee that all of you will obtain something!”
No one understood the Blood Monster Divine Palace better than Black Crow Divine Monarch, so the matter of breaking the seal was naturally managed by him.
He had long since come up with a plan, and after taking charge of the overall situation, he immediately issued a series of orders. Not only that, but he also took out a number of array flags from somewhere and distributed them.
There were at least a thousand cultivators gathered here, and soon, under Black Crow Divine Monarch’s arrangements, with the exception of the people around Yang Kai, the others were divided into sixty-four groups and stood in the position of the eight trigrams of heaven and earth. The ones in the lead were the elite disciples from the Cave Heaven Paradise, each of them controlling an array flag.
Seeing this, Yang Kai’s brow wrinkled slightly. Logically speaking, Black Crow Divine Monarch had been imprisoned here for so many years, and he himself was a High Rank Open Heaven reincarnation, so his understanding of the Blood Monster Cave Heaven was more profound than anyone else’s. Even with his knowledge and ability, he still had to go through so much trouble to set up such a great array to break the seal, not to mention that there was still a Seventh Order Monster Beast sleeping here. Once the seal was broken, it would definitely alert the Monster Beast.
Did the Blood Monster Divine Monarch really intend to pass down his legacy? Yang Kai suspected that the Blood Monster Divine Monarch had never thought of such a thing, otherwise why would he set up such a difficult test? This was not something an Emperor Realm master could pass.
However, there was no point in thinking about this now. Black Crow Divine Monarch had already begun to make arrangements. Whether or not he could open the Blood Monster Divine Palace depended on his methods.
In less than two hours, the Great Array was almost completely set up. Black Crow Divine Monarch appeared in front of Yang Kai again and said solemnly, “Boy, if that Seventh Order Monster Beast doesn’t come out, it’ll be fine, but if it does, it’ll have to rely on you and the people around you to resist it. The others inside the Great Array won’t be able to move at all, so don’t disappoint this Monarch.”
Yang Kai said, “I’ll try my best!”
He didn’t know how powerful a Seventh Order Monster Beast could be, but if he really couldn’t defeat it, he would definitely have to run, so how could he just sit here and wait for death?
Black Crow Divine Monarch obviously understood the meaning behind his words and looked at him deeply, but there was nothing he could do about it, so he could only try to entice him, “Boy, don’t you want High Rank Gold Element and Yin Element resources? If you can help this Monarch stop that Monster Beast, if i found what you need in the Blood Monster Divine Palace, I will definitely bring it to you.”
Yang Kai nodded, “Sure, sure.”
Black Crow Divine Monarch’s words naturally couldn’t be trusted. Don’t be fooled by his amiable attitude towards hims now, it was because he had something he needed to rely on him for. When his value disappeared, how could he show him any goodwill?
However… Yang Kai was a little excited. He didn’t know what kind of Monster Beast was sleeping here, but if it happened to be of the Gold or Yin Element…
He would definitely kill it! The Divine Ability Bead that the Proprietress had given him hadn’t been used yet, so when the time came to activate the Divine Ability Bead, he would have a chance to strike!
Black Crow Divine Monarch transformed into a bloody light and flew away. When he reappeared, he was already in the middle of the mountain valley. Casting a spell, he shouted, “All of you, brace yourselves! Whether you succeed or fail will depend on this! Start the formation!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and grabbed a large flag from out of nowhere. Opening his mouth, he spat out a cloud of blood mist, which then suck the blood energy into the flag, causing it to wriggle about as if it was alive.
Black Crow Divine Monarch waved the flag in his hand.
