Right now, the Void Land was in a state of chaos. Many Spirit Peaks had been razed to the ground and the seven fruit gardens had suffered heavy losses.
Yang Kai felt his teeth ache, his heart ache, his liver ache…
The Void Land is his foundation in the 3000 Worlds, and he had spent a great deal of money to set up the Nine Layers Heaven Formation here. If it was really destroyed because of this battle, he would have suffered a great loss.
However, judging from the current situation, although the battle between Zhu Jiu Yin and the two High Rank Open Heaven masters was fierce, it would be difficult to destroy the Void Land.
What made Yang Kai feel slightly relieved was that Zhu Jiu Yin also knew that there were many disciples living in the Void Land, so the battlefield did not affect the area where the crowd gathered.
What Yang Kai couldn’t figure out was why this woman wanted to place the battlefield in the Void Land. He had asked her to lure the enemy to the outside to fight, but Zhu Jiu Yin had turned a blind eye to it, so he didn’t know what she was thinking.
Yang Kai’s eyesight wasn’t good enough. Although he could see three figures constantly moving about and exchanging blows, causing the world to tremble, he couldn’t tell who had the upper hand, so he could only humbly ask Yue He, “Which one of them have the advantage?”
Yue He replied, “Zhu Jiu Yin can’t support herself…”
Yang Kai raised his brow, having a rough estimate of Zhu Jiu Yin’s strength. The two High Rank Open Heaven that had come were both Seventh Order. Although Zhu Jiu Yin was fighting one against two, it was still quite impressive for her to be able to hold on until now. In other words, Zhu Jiu Yin now had the strength of a Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage, otherwise she would not have been able to achieve such a feat…
Was this Zhu Jiu Yin’s full strength? Yang Kai couldn’t be certain. After all, although Zhu Jiu Yin had followed him from the Great Ruins Boundary for some time, whether she had fully adapted to the laws of the 3000 Worlds or whether she had recovered her peak strength was still unknown.
If this was Zhu Jiu Yin’s full strength, it meant that Zhu Jiu Yin was a Holy Spirit equivalent to a Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage master. If not, then she is a genuine Eighth Order Holy Spirit!
Thinking about it, Yang Kai said, “Help her!”
Yue He and Mo Mei accepted the order and rushed towards Zhu Jiu Yin. In the entire Void Land, only the two Sixth Order cultivator could barely intervene in a battle between High Rank Open Heaven masters. Although Pang Duo and the others had the cultivation of Fifth Order Open Heaven Stage masters, they were nothing in the face of such a battle. If they really went over, they would just be delivering themselves to the enemy, so it was better not to cause trouble.
As such, Pang Duo and the others didn’t move at all and instead stood guard next to Yang Kai to avoid being taken advantage of.
However, Yue He and Mo Mei had just recently advanced, so it was hard to say how much they could help.
“Don’t come over!” Zhu Jiu Yin suddenly shouted, obviously noticing Yue He and Mo Mei’s actions.
Yue He and Mo Mei immediately stopped. Since Zhu Jiu Yin had told them not to go, it meant that it was useless for them to go, and they would only cause more trouble. For a time, everyone’s hearts were in their throats.
Although three of the four great battlefields in the Void Land had achieved complete victory, the Hundred Force Alliance had almost been completely wiped out, and even Kong Feng, the main culprit, had been captured alive, the battle between Zhu Jiu Yin and the two High Rank Open Heaven master was the true deciding factor in this battle.
If Zhu Jiu Yin won, the Void Land would be safe, but if she lost, no matter how many victories they had before, they would all be for naught. The power of two High Rank Open Heaven was not something the Void Land could resist.
The survival of the Void Land was now entirely dependent on Zhu Jiu Yin!
Yang Kai clenched his fists tightly and his lips tightened as he stared at the battlefield. As time passed, even he could tell that Zhu Jiu Yin’s situation was not good.
The two High Rank Open Heaven masters’ strengths were extraordinary, and their coordination was extremely close. Zhu Jiu Yin’s left hand and right hand were struggling to block a few of these attacks, but the Myriad Demons Heaven's master took advantage of this opportunity to stab her chest with his spear.
Zhu Jiu Yin’s beautiful face paled and she quickly retreated, but the spear was like a maggot in her bones, unable to escape.
Just as Zhu Jiu Yin was about to be pierced, with a loud bang, a giant creature suddenly appeared.
It was a giant eight-legged spider with a silvery white body and a crescent mark on its back. The power of the Holy Spirit filled the air.
Heavenly Moon Demon Spider!
Zhu Jiu Yin was forced to reveal her true body.
Yang Kai’s heart tightened. If she didn’t have any other choice, Zhu Jiu Yin wouldn’t have revealed her true form. Now that she had, it was obvious she was on the verge of death.
The Heavenly Moon Demon Spider human's head and beast body looked extremely strange, but it had an extremely enchanting aura. It waved its eight legs and formed a spirit net in the void, wanting to trap the two High Rank Open Heaven inside.
The sword-wielding man continued to attack while saying, “So Madam is from the Heavenly Moon Demon Spider Branch, it’s been many years since I last saw one. Since Madam is a Holy Spirit, there is no need for you to be caught in your own mistake. Why don’t you quickly retreat so you don’t get caught up in your own mistakes!” With a slash of his sword, the threads of silk broke.
Zhu Jiu Yin gritted her teeth and didn’t answer, continuing to weave the Spiritual Net, sealing the sky and locking the earth as she stomped on the ground, causing the ground to tremble with each step.
The sword wielder frowned, not knowing what Zhu Jiu Yin was up to.
Myriad Demons Heaven's High Rank Open Heaven shouted, “Long delays may bring trouble, let’s end this quickly!”
The sword wielder nodded lightly, his Sword Intent suddenly soaring into the sky.
When the two of them joined forces, their attacks were more than twice as fierce as before, causing Zhu Jiu Yin’s situation to become more precarious. If she were to face these two Open Heaven alone, she might not be in such a miserable state, but in this Void Land, she had too many scruples. She had not yet recovered her peak strength, so her hands and feet were tied, and she had to protect Yang Kai’s safety, making it impossible for her to escape. Naturally, this situation had become what it was now.
However, even though she was constantly retreating and trying her best to hold on, she was still constantly stomping the earth, causing a thunderous sound to ring out from the depths of the earth.
Initially, the two High Rank masters didn’t pay much attention to this, but after a while, both of them realized that something was wrong. Zhu Jiu Yin was already struggling to cope with their attacks, so why was she so distracted?
The sword wielder whispered, “I don’t know what trick this woman is playing, but be careful.”
The Myriad Demons Heaven's Open Heaven grinned maliciously, “Even in death, you still dare to play tricks!”
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, their expressions suddenly changed and they quickly retreated, looking around suspiciously as if they were facing a great enemy.
Zhu Jiu Yin also stopped her movements and let out a long sigh, her heart filled with grievance. If she had recovered her peak strength, the two people in front of her would have been no match for her, so there was naturally no need to fight so hard. However, if she wanted to completely recover, it would take at least three to five years.
Just now, she had made up her mind that if the situation was bad, she would take Yang Kai and Shan Qingluo and escape immediately. With her ability, if she really wanted to escape, the two High Rank Open Heaven wouldn’t be able to do anything to her.
She was Yang Kai’s Dao Protector, so no matter what, she had to ensure his safety. Shan Qingluo had the bloodline of the Heavenly Moon Demon Spider, so she naturally had to protect her. As for the lives of others, she didn’t care.
However, in this way, Yang Kai would definitely complain and curse her afterwards.
Fortunately, now that the crisis had been resolved, he could finally relax and grit her teeth, “I thought you really weren’t going to come out. If you want to be a coward, you can hide forever!”
Outside the battlefield, Yang Kai and the others were completely confused. They had all seen Zhu Jiu Yin’s precarious situation, but none of them knew why the two High Rank Open Heaven masters had suddenly retreated.
Now that Zhu Jiu Yin had spoken such words, it was truly puzzling.
But soon, Yang Kai’s expression became strange as he faintly felt an aura revive from the Void Land. This feeling was as if the entire Void Land had suddenly come to life, and this aura even caused his Dragon Vein to jump slightly…
“Aiya, you little girl, jumping up and down on this old master’s head, making this old master’s head hurt.” An old voice suddenly rang out in everyone’s ears, and soon after, a short figure suddenly appeared not far away from Zhu Jiu Yin. This figure appeared so strangely, as if he had been standing there just now, but no one saw it, not only Yang Kai, but even the two Seventh Order Open Heaven.
“Besides, if I don’t shrink back, can I still call myself a turtle?” The short figure asked again.
Zhu Jiu coldly snorted. She is a Holy Spirit, and although she looked young and beautiful, she had lived in the Great Ruins Boundary for many years. However, when he called her a little girl, Zhu Jiu Yin did not refute.
Yang Kai looked at the short figure that had appeared with a strange expression. It was an old man with white hair and beard. His face was filled with wrinkles and he looked like he was about to die at any moment. His back was bent and he held a walking stick that was half the height of a man. What was most eye-catching was that he was carrying a thick turtle shell on his back. The turtle shell was covered in crisscrossing ravines and was filled with profound inscriptions that seemed to contain the essence of the Great Dao.
Realizing that Yang Kai was looking at him, this old man, who seemed to be on the verge of death, turned his head towards Yang Kai and smiled.
Looking at his appearance, combined with his aura and the changes in his bloodline, Yang Kai’s eyes lit up!
“Another Holy Spirit?” Myriad Demons Heaven's High Rank Open Heaven eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at the short old man with great fear. In this small Void Land, hiding a Heavenly Moon Demon Spider was already shocking enough, but he had never thought there would be a second Holy Spirit!
However, now that this Holy Spirit’s true body wasn’t revealed, he couldn’t determine which race it belonged to, and the turtle shell on its body was simply too eye-catching, causing him to have many speculations.
With Zhu Jiu Yin alone fighting the two High Rank Open Heaven, they still had some advantages, but with the addition of another Holy Spirit, they had no chance of winning.
This Holy Spirit had hidden itself so deeply that none of them had been able to detect it before. It had only appeared when the victory was about to be decided and had come out to stir up trouble. Obviously, it was impossible for it to be on the same side as them.
Thinking so, the two High Rank Open Heaven masters frowned.
Holding his sword behind his back, the man stepped forward and cupped his fists, “How should I address this Senior?”
The old man didn’t answer, because his back was bent and his head hung low. On his brow were two long white eyebrows, so no one could see his expression.
The sword-wielding man remained silent for a moment but didn’t receive any response, obviously somewhat unhappy. Just as he was about to ask another question, he heard a snore from the old man.
This old man had actually fallen asleep!
