“What does Senior want me to do? This little brat’s cultivation is low, so I may not be able to help you.” Although Yang Kai pitied this person’s situation, he didn’t dare to speak too confidently, mainly because he had met Black Crow Divine Monarch before. These old monsters who had lived for countless years were not easy to deal with, and if he wasn’t careful, he would fall into their trap.
The Divine Soul said, “Don’t worry, you don’t need to do anything difficult, I just want you to kill me.”
Yang Kai was silent.
Seeing a soul being extracted and refined with his own eyes, it was really a fate worse than death, so Yang Kai wasn’t surprised by this request. In his current state, it was indeed better to just die.
“Little friend, are you still here?” Seeing that Yang Kai didn’t respond, the Soul asked tentatively.
“Yes,” Yang Kai breathed lightly, “What does Senior want me to do?”
The Soul said, “My Soul has completely fused with this Soul Flame. As long as the Soul Flame remains, my Soul will not die, so if you want to kill me, you must completely extinguish this Soul Flame. Have you condense the power of Water Element? Just use your Water Element.”
Yang Kai nodded, “Senior, please wait a moment, I’ll send Senior off!”
Having been tormented for so long, his Soul, which was constantly immersed in pain, suddenly calmed down, “Many thanks, little friend.”
Yang Kai didn’t say anything else and instead urged the Water Element energy in his Dao Seal to rush towards the Soul Flame.
His Water Element is at the Seventh Grade, which was the result of condensing the Moon Essence in the Great Ruins Boundary. Although it was Water element, it was mainly icy cold, so when he used it now, a bone-chilling cold aura spread out.
Not only that, but Yang Kai’s palm seemed to grasp a hazy moonlight…
Among the five elements, water countered fire, so using the Water Element to destroy the Soul Flame was naturally the best solution. If it was someone else, even if they knew the method, they might not be able to succeed because the quality of this Soul Flame was not low, but Yang Kai’s Water Element was still a Seventh Grade, so it was more than enough to deal with this ownerless Soul Flame.
A chill spread out and wrapped around the Soul Flame, causing it to visibly shrink.
The Soul which had completely fused with the Soul Flame was the first to notice this and said with a complicated tone, “Finally freed!”
While doing so, Yang Kai asked, “Does Senior have any other wishes?”
The Soul sat cross-legged in the Soul Flame, quietly waiting for death to arrive. Hearing this, it couldn’t help laughing, “I can’t even remember who I am, how could I have any unfulfilled wishes… Oh, right, I seem to have a Sect, what was its name…”
After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn’t figure it out, so he could only sigh and say, “Forget it, after so many years, that Sect has probably already disappeared, so why should I worry about it?”
In just a moment, the Soul Flame had been worn down by Yang Kai’s Water Element, and even his Soul had become blurry, as if it was about to be completely destroyed.
A moment later, whether it was the Soul Flame or the Soul that had merged with it, only a faint shadow remained.
Accompanied by a crisp sound that came from the depths of his soul, the Soul Flame collapsed and the Soul was annihilated. The last trace of the Soul’s voice entered Yang Kai’s ears, “This is the Nihility Formation arranged by Old Dog Blood Monster, which contains the Five Elements intergrowth. If you want to find a way out, you must do the opposite, perhaps you might have a chance to survive!”
Yang Kai looked at the place where the Soul Flames had disappeared and couldn’t help sighing. What he was certain of was that this Soul was definitely no weaker than Black Crow Divine Monarch’s when it was alive, and it had somehow offended Blood Monster Divine Monarch and had its soul extracted and refined for so many years.
From this, it could be seen that this Blood Monster Divine Monarch was not a good person when he was alive. How could such a ruthless and cruel person kindly leave behind his various inheritances?
Without Black Crow Divine Monarch, no one would be able to find this Blood Monster Divine Palace.
However, the words he had said before his Soul was destroyed had given Yang Kai a great deal of inspiration. It was likely that the other party had also returned the favor and given him a chance to free himself, so he was naturally grateful.
This is really a situation where there is nowhere to go, but there is suddenly a village in the dark.
Yang Kai immediately sat down cross-legged. This Nihility Formation contained the Five Elements intergrowth. Conversely, it's the Five Elements mutual restraint.
Yang Kai carefully examined his surroundings and soon felt the pure Five Elements Energy in this white world. He hadn’t been able to sense it before because he hadn’t been able to calm his mind and search for a way out, but now he was able to discover it thanks to the Soul’s reminder.
He had already condensed four of the Five Elements, namely Wood, Fire, Earth, Water, and Gold Element. Because he had not found a suitable resource to condense them, he had not yet condensed them. However, he had the Yuan Magnetic Divine Bottle Gourd, which contained a Sixth Grade Yuan Magnetic Divine Light.
Having made up his mind, Yang Kai no longer hesitated. No matter what, it was always right to try. If he could find a way out, it would naturally be best. Even if he couldn’t find a way out, it wouldn’t be too late to try!
Taking out the Yuan Magnetic Divine Bottle Gourd and opening it, Yang Kai focused his attention and silently activated the four types of power contained in the Dao Seal, drawing out the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light from the Yuan Magnetic Divine Divine Bottle Gourd and activating it in the order of the five elements.
In an instant, the energy around him surged and a series of sizzling sounds rang out.
As he activated his Wood Element, Yang Kai suddenly remembered the Wood Element Divine Ability he had previously comprehended. At that time, the situation had been quite urgent, so he hadn’t had the time to carefully study it. Now that he thought about it, it seemed that the Wood Element Divine Ability not only had defensive capabilities, but also many other abilities he had yet to discover.
However, now was not the time to consider the Wood Element Divine Ability. He could only wait until he left the Blood Monster Cave Heaven before finding time to study it.
The power of the Five Elements circulated endlessly, constantly suppressing each other.
Yang Kai sent out a wisp of his Divine Sense to observe the changes around him, but after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement.
This caused Yang Kai’s heart to sink. He didn’t doubt that the Soul would lie to him. As the saying goes, when a man is about to die, his words will be kind. The Soul had been tortured by Blood Monster Divine Monarch for so many years, and Yang Kai had given him a chance to free himself, so it was impossible for him to lie.
Such a situation was either due to his lack of ability or because the other party’s memories were muddled and he had remembered something wrong. After all, after being tortured for so many years, he couldn’t even remember who he was, so it was naturally possible he had remembered something else wrong.
With this thought in mind, Yang Kai’s heart stirred as he once again urged the power of the Five Elements in the opposite direction, immediately transforming it into the Five Elements to grow together!
Just as he finished doing this, Yang Kai suddenly saw a faint staircase appear in front of him!
Yang Kai’s expression changed, but before he could take a closer look, the staircase disappeared.
He was certain that he had not been hallucinating just now. It really was a staircase, although there was only one…
Stopping his movements, Yang Kai thought about it for a moment before repeating his previous actions. Sure enough, the staircase appeared in front of him again, but in the next moment, it disappeared again.
Yang Kai’s eyes flashed, seemingly understanding something.
Letting out a sigh of relief, Yang Kai stood up and activated the Dao Seal and the power of the Yuan Magnetic Divine Bottle Gourd in his hand. The Five Elements restrained each other and reincarnated, and under this reincarnation, the staircase in front of him appeared again.
This time, Yang Kai didn’t hesitate and stepped forward, repeating his previous actions.
A second staircase appeared…
Without any hesitation, Yang Kai stepped forward, the power of the Five Elements surging around him as the third step appeared beneath his feet.
In the beginning, although Yang Kai’s movements were fast, he was still cautious. However, after confirming his guess, he no longer hesitated. Every time his foot landed, a flight of stairs would appear beneath his feet.
Yang Kai flew higher, his steps steady, as if he was about to reach the clouds and break through the horizon.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Yang Kai estimated that he had climbed at least a thousand steps. At one point, when Yang Kai lifted his foot again, he suddenly discovered that there were no more steps ahead.
Yang Kai was startled. He had thought that he had made a mistake just now, causing his efforts to fail, but when he looked forward, he found that he had somehow appeared in a large hall.
Looking back, there were no more stairs, even the white world had disappeared.
I'm out! Yang Kai’s heart shook and he was overjoyed. The Soul didn’t remember the method to break the formation wrongly, it just wasn’t comprehensive. Fortunately, Yang Kai was quick-witted, otherwise he really wouldn’t have been able to escape from that strange formation.
From the side, the sound of breathing could be heard, like a broken bellows. Yang Kai turned his head and immediately felt a chill run down his spine. Taking a step back, he grabbed the Divine Ability Bead the Proprietress had given him and shouted, “Black Crow!”
He had actually met Black Crow Divine Monarch here!
At this moment, how could he not know that everyone had been played by this guy?
Previously, he had wanted to borrow everyone’s strength to break the restrictions around the Blood Monster Divine Palace and restrain the Seventh Order Monster Beast, drawing out a lot of temptation for others, even using his own Dao Seal to swear a blood oath, telling everyone that after entering the Blood Monster Divine Palace, as long as others did not provoke him, he would definitely not act!
His attitude was extremely sincere, which was why everyone was willing to cooperate with him. After all, there were definitely many treasures in the Blood Monster Divine Palace, so who wouldn’t want to take a look?
Even Yang Kai was tempted.
However, with the previous encounter, how could Yang Kai not know that everyone had fallen into Black Crow's trap? He clearly had some understanding of the white world from before, and he also knew that as long as someone entered the Blood Monster Divine Palace, they would definitely fall into the Formation, and the method to leave was something he alone knew. At that time, when everyone else was trapped inside and he was alone, the Blood Monster Divine Palace would be his.
If Yang Kai didn’t have the guidance of the Soul from before, it would have been impossible for him to escape so quickly.
However, to Yang Kai’s surprise, as soon as he entered this hall, he saw Black Crow Divine Monarch.
Black Crow Divine Monarch was just as shocked as Yang Kai. His eyes were as wide as an egg as he gasped for breath, as if he had just seen a ghost. “Boy, why are you here?”
