This person seemed to have encountered some kind of terrifying incident, and his face was filled with horror. Yang Kai had finally encountered someone, and even though he knew he was in a bad situation, he couldn’t let him leave so easily. His figure flickered as he stood in front of him and raised his hand, “Friend, please wait!”
Unexpectedly, the man didn’t seem to notice Yang Kai at all and continued to charge towards him.
Yang Kai’s brow wrinkled even more as he gently pushed his hand forward, intending to stop this man, but instead, his arm went through his body.
This scene shocked Yang Kai, but before he could react, the man had already passed through his body and was now flying on his back.
Yang Kai suddenly turned his head, but there was no one behind him. It was as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion. A chill rose from his heart and he felt a chill run down his spine.
This damned place was full of mysteries and was not a good place to stay for long, but Yang Kai had no clue about the mysteries of this place and didn’t know how to leave.
After walking for a while, Yang Kai suddenly saw a round platform in front of him. On top of this round platform, there seemed to be something.
He couldn’t help rubbing his eyes, his face filled with vigilance because he was certain that when he looked in this direction before, there was nothing there, but when he turned his gaze back, the round platform suddenly appeared.
Holding his breath, Yang Kai looked around with a frown, unable to see what was on the round platform. After hesitating for a long time, he slowly walked over.
Soon, Yang Kai arrived in front of the round platform and walked up a few steps. Looking around, Yang Kai’s expression changed drastically, because on the round platform was a head, and the owner of this head was Qu Huachang!
How could Qu Huachang have died here? And who was the one who had placed her head here? Yang Kai’s eyes instantly became bloodshot and his chest filled with anger, like a volcano about to erupt and burn everything in this world.
This Senior Sister from Yin-Yang Cave Heaven had been helping him along the way, and if it weren’t for her carrying him all the way, he would have been killed by Yin Xinzhao and the others while he was unconscious. Yang Kai also understood Qu Huachang’s character, so it could be said that in his heart, Yang Kai had already regarded her as a friend.
However, at this moment, she had actually died here, causing Yang Kai’s heart to ache!
At this moment, Qu Huachang suddenly opened her eyes and cried out miserably to Yang Kai, “Junior Brother, save me, I’m in so much pain!”
Yang Kai took a few steps back and looked towards the head in surprise.
Qu Huachang repeatedly asked for help, but Yang Kai’s expression gradually calmed down.
This was definitely not Qu Huachang’s head! It was impossible for a dead person to speak. Yang Kai was almost certain that he had fallen into some kind of Illusion Array and everything in front of him was just an illusion.
Thinking so, Yang Kai’s figure flashed and he directly entered the Mysterious Small World!
Originally, he had wanted to use this opportunity to escape the illusion in front of him, but after entering the Mysterious Small World, he discovered that he was not in a good condition. At some point, a strange energy had wrapped itself around his body, which was filled with an evil aura. If he had not entered the Mysterious Small World, he would not have discovered it.
These strange energies twisted and distorted, transforming into all kinds of strange scenes.
The illusion before him was definitely caused by this energy.
Yang Kai’s face sank as he immediately activated his Golden Crow True Fire on his body.
With a crackling sound, the threads of evil energy that had wrapped around his body were instantly burned away. After confirming that there was nothing strange about his body, Yang Kai flashed out of the Mysterious Small World and reappeared outside.
However, this time he was careful and did not withdraw his Golden Crow True Fire, instead constantly activating it to protect himself.
As soon as he appeared, Yang Kai heard a piercing sound coming from the side of the road. Black smoke rose up as if something had been burned by him, just like the scene of the evil energy burning in the Mysterious Small World.
Yang Kai suddenly realized that this strange place was probably filled with evil energy, and anyone who entered this place would be filled with illusions.
The grade of this evil energy wasn’t low, so it was likely a technique arranged by Blood Monster Divine Monarch. However, the grade of his Golden Crow True Fire wasn’t low either, which was why it was able to restrain this evil energy. If it were any other cultivator here, they wouldn’t be able to handle such a situation.
Yang Kai couldn’t help feeling worried. Whether it was Zhang Ruoxi, Qu Huachang, Ning Daoran, or Lang Qingshan, none of them had such a strong foundation. At this moment, they were probably suffering from hallucinations.
It was almost certain that all the cultivators who had rushed into the Blood Monster Divine Palace had suffered the same fate as him, but even if he could escape, others might not have the ability to!
Looking back at the round platform, Qu Huachang’s head had disappeared.
Yang Kai let out a sigh of relief. It seemed that what he had just seen was really an illusion, and Qu Huachang’s head had not been cut off by someone!
A series of crackling sounds rang out beside him as the evil energy around him was constantly being burned. Yang Kai stepped forward, but this time, compared to before, he felt like his mind was clearer.
After walking for a long time, he suddenly heard a weak and miserable cry, as if it was enduring some unimaginable torture.
Yang Kai frowned slightly. He didn’t know if he was hallucinating or if someone was really screaming, but just in case, he entered the Mysterious Small World again and checked himself to make sure he wasn’t contaminated by the evil energy.
Screams rang out again, and Yang Kai was certain that someone was really screaming.
After listening for a while, he followed the source of the sound.
After walking for a while, Yang Kai stopped in front of a flame and stared at it solemnly. He didn’t know what kind of flame this flame was, but even if it wasn’t as strong as his Golden Crow True Fire, it wasn’t far off.
What shocked him was not this ball of fire, but the thing inside it.
Inside the flames, there was a humanoid object. Under the burning of the flames, it constantly screamed and twisted, occasionally colliding with the flames in an attempt to escape, but every time it did, a strange force would bind it, making it unable to move.
Yang Kai’s scalp went numb. The humanoid figure in the fire was emitting the aura of a Divine Soul. It was obviously someone’s Soul!
Since his debut, Yang Kai had offended many people, many of whom had spoken ill of him, such as telling him to taste the cruel torture of the world and extract his Soul!
However, these people were just making harsh remarks.
At this moment, Yang Kai really saw a person’s Soul being constantly burned by the raging flames but not dying.
This was a true Soul Extracting, a true fate worse than death!
Yang Kai wanted to see who the Soul in the raging flames was, but he couldn’t see it clearly. It was too distorted, and… Yang Kai vaguely felt that this Soul was not from the cultivator who had entered before, because although it appeared weak at this moment, it gave off a strong feeling!
Just as Yang Kai was wondering what was happening, the Soul suddenly stopped screaming and struggling, transforming into a strange face that Yang Kai had never seen before.
Yang Kai subconsciously circulated his strength, secretly on guard.
“Who is it? Who’s standing there?” The man grit his teeth and shouted, not because he was angry, but because he was constantly suffering the pain of having his Soul burned.
Yang Kai frowned as he stared into the eyes of this man’s Soul Avatar, only to discover that although this man’s eyes were focused on him, they weren’t focused on him. In other words, this man shouldn’t be able to see him and only felt that he was standing in front of him.
This person must have been an incredible master when he was alive! Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to persist until now with just his Soul. Yang Kai couldn’t help thinking of Black Crow Divine Monarch.
Could it be that Black Crow Divine Monarch was not the only one imprisoned in Blood Monster Cave Heaven? Was there another High Rank Open Heaven?
“Who’s standing there? Speak!” The man roared impatiently, like a wounded beast.
Yang Kai frowned, “Who are you? Why are you trapped in this flame?”
“Me?” The Soul Avatar was stunned for a moment, “I forgot who I was… no, you can see me?” If it hadn’t seen him, how could it have known he was trapped in a ball of flames?
“Yes,” Yang Kai nodded.
“Impossible, what Grade of Open Heaven are you? How can you see me? This place is the Nihility Formation arranged by Old Dog Blood Monster. Unless it’s a High Rank Open Heaven, it’s impossible to see through its mysteries. Could it be that you’re a High Rank Open Heaven?”
Yang Kai said, “I’m just a Half Open Heaven…” Pausing for a moment, he firmly said, “But one day, I will reach the High Rank Open Heaven.”
“Half Open Heaven…” The man was stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered, “You condensed High Rank resources?”
“Yes!”
The man suddenly understood, “No wonder you can see me. Were you also captured by Old Dog Blood Monster?”
Yang Kai was silent for a moment. From the meaning of his words, it seemed that he had been captured by Blood Monster Divine Monarch and then stripped of his Divine Soul to suffer the pain of being burned here. How many years had he endured? His Divine Soul had actually not been burned, what exactly had he done to offend Blood Monster Divine Monarch…
With this thought in mind, Yang Kai said, “Blood Monster Divine Monarch has long since fallen, and Blood Monster Cave Heaven has become a Secret Realm. I came here to gain experience.”
“Old Dog Blood Monster has fallen?” The man’s expression became complicated as he muttered a few times before suddenly laughing, “Hahahaha, Old Dog Blood Monster, so what if your strength is extraordinary? This old master has lived longer than you!”
Yang Kai clenched his fists and coughed lightly, not knowing what to say. If he had to live a life worse than death, it was better to die.
As he laughed, he cried again, “Old Dog Blood Monster actually fell… then I don’t need to persist any longer!” He had even forgotten what his name was, but he still remembered Blood Monster Divine Monarch. Obviously, there was some kind of deep hatred between these two, and it was this hatred that allowed him to persist until now.
Soon, this person restrained his emotions and endured the burning pain as he said, “Junior, do me a favor.”
