Amongst the seven Yin-Yang + Five Elements, Yin and Yang were rarer and more precious than the Five Elements of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. Yang Kai had also spent a large amount of Open Heaven Pills to purchase various resources, so he was well aware of this.
Yue He is now a member of the Void Land, so it was understandable that she didn’t have a Sixth Grade Yin Element. This was because there were many people in the Void Land who needed Sixth Grade resources, and it wasn’t easy to obtain them. Whether it was Yang Kai’s early gains or the recently discovered Sixth Grade Yin Element in the Star City, they were all used to satisfy the needs of the people in the Void Land, so how could there be any surplus?
There was no need to mention Old Bai and Qu Huachang. The former had been following the Proprietress all this time, so if there was anything good, the Proprietress would take care of it and give it to him when he needed it. Although the latter was a core disciple of Yin-Yang Cave Heaven, she had only recently broken through to the Sixth Order, so she temporarily didn’t need any Sixth Grade resources to improve her cultivation.
Yang Kai didn’t expect that after this trip, he would have the intention to break through to Open Heaven, otherwise he wouldn’t have been so unprepared. Now that everything was ready, all he needed was the wind to push him, but even a clever housewife couldn’t cook without rice.
This situation was quite awkward.
Staring at Zhu Jiu Yin, he asked, “You’ve accumulated so much wealth in the Great Ruins Boundary for so many years, how come you don’t even have a single Sixth Grade Yin Element?”
Zhu Jiu Yin rolled her eyes and said, “This Queen doesn’t need those random things to cultivate, so what’s the point? Besides, even in the Great Ruins Boundary, there are very few Yin and Yang elements.”
Yang Kai’s head hurt. What should he do?
On the other side, Ti Zheng and the others had already relaxed and were prepared to wait for Yang Kai to break through to Open Heaven so they could take the heavy burden off their shoulders. Who would have thought that such a situation would occur? For a moment, they were speechless.
Yang Kai’s willingness to advance to Open Heaven at this time was undoubtedly what they hoped to see, because in this way, Yang Kai’s future hidden danger could be eliminated. Although they hadn’t killed Yang Kai here as planned to prevent future troubles, the result was still acceptable. When they returned, they would at least be able to account to their respective Sects.
However, if Yang Kai couldn’t break through because a lack of Yin Element Resource, it would be difficult for them.
Unable to kill everyone here to silence them, they didn’t dare act against a single Dragon Clan, otherwise they would have to bear the wrath of the Dragon Clan in the future, but letting Yang Kai leave just like that was truly unacceptable.
Just as they didn’t know what to do, they suddenly saw Yang Kai turn his head towards them.
The corner of Ti Zheng’s eyes twitched as he asked cautiously, “What are you looking at me for?”
Yang Kai coldly snorted, “If you want me to achieve Open Heaven here, I can satisfy you, but you should at least show some sincerity, right?”
“Sincerity? What sincerity?” Ti Zheng frowned.
“Don’t you know what I need? Why ask when you already know?”
Ti Zheng looked at him speechlessly for a moment before moving his lips and sending a few voice transmissions to the three people beside him. Although he was a Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator, he didn’t have a Sixth Grade Yin Element, so he could only ask the other three if they had such a thing.
If paying a Sixth Grade Yin Element was enough to solve this problem, it would be acceptable, so although he was unhappy, Ti Zheng still restrained himself.
However, after a series of inquiries, none of them had a Sixth Grade Yin Element.
Similar to Zhu Jiu Yin, there were some Sixth Grade cultivation resources, but none of them were Yin and Yang. The main reason was that the Yin and Yang element cultivation resources were too rare. Once they obtained any harvest, they would be handed over to their respective Sects to satisfy the cultivation needs of their disciples, or they would refine them themselves. The various Cave Heaven Paradise were huge and required more precious resources than the Void Land.
Looking up at Yang Kai, Ti Zheng said, “We don’t have any Sixth Grade Yin Element.”
Yang Kai’s face sank, “You four Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage masters are extremely wealthy, yet you’re telling me you don’t have a Sixth Grade Yin Element? Do you think I’m a three-year-old child that you can fool?”
Ti Zheng angrily replied, “If i say we don't have it, then we don't. Believe it or not is up to you.”
Yang Kai sneered.
Ti Zheng’s face was filled with anger. He had not been fully prepared for his breakthrough to Open Heaven, yet now he was blaming someone else. What kind of bullshit logic was this? However, after thinking about it for a while, he realized that this little brat had always been determined to reach the Seventh Order directly and had been focused on searching for a High Rank Yin Element. In the past, even if a Sixth Grade Yin Element was placed in front of him, he probably wouldn’t even spare it a second glance. Now that he had been forced into a corner, he couldn’t make any preparations in advance.
Coughing lightly, Ti Zheng asked, “Do you want a Fifth Grade Yin Element? This King has a good Fifth Grade Heavenly Yin Sand. This Heavenly Yin Sand is extremely rare and is the best of Fifth Grade resources. If you want it, this King can give it to you!”
Yang Kai flew into a rage, “Ti Zheng, a warrior can be killed but not humiliated! I was willing to become a Sixth Order because of you, a Sixth Order is my bottom line, but now you want me to become a Fifth Order? What are your intentions? No matter how good the Heavenly Yin Sand is, it’s only a Fifth Grade, can it help me reach the Sixth Order? Why don’t we have another battle here and see who wins!”
Ti Zheng didn’t say anything and also felt that his proposal was a bit unrealistic. Yang Kai’s foundation was incomparably deep, and he was originally a good seedling who could directly advance to the High Rank. Now that he had chosen to become a Sixth Order, he had no choice but to lower his requirements to become a Fifth Order. This was indeed a bit excessive, and if he was not careful, this boy would be driven to desperation.
If they were to really fight again, how could they act as recklessly as before and kill Yang Kai? At that time, they would be the ones to suffer.
Pondering for a moment, Ti Zheng said, “How about this, you wait here for a while. This King will immediately send a message and have someone deliver a Sixth Grade Yin Element.”
His heart was filled with grievance. This trip was supposed to be to kill Yang Kai, but in the end, it had become like this, as if he was asking Yang Kai to quickly break through to Open Heaven and had to spend so much effort to prepare a Sixth Grade Yin Element for him. What was going on?
After living for so many years, Ti Zheng had never felt so aggrieved.
Yang Kai asked solemnly, “How long?”
Ti Zheng replied, “Returning to Myriad Demon Heavens now is unrealistic, but this King can ask someone to buy a Sixth Grade Yin Element in Shattered Heaven Star City. Shattered Heaven's Star City has everything you need, so finding a Sixth Grade Yin Element isn’t difficult, it will take at least a month.”
Yang Kai slowly shook his head, “A month is too long!”
Ti Zheng frowned, “Just a month.”
Yang Kai replied, “I can’t wait.”
“Then what do you want?”
Yang Kai said, “I want that Sixth Grade Yin Element now.”
Ti Zheng said angrily, “Didn’t I say so? Do you want this King to make it appear out of thin air?”
“I don’t believe you!” Yang Kai’s eyes swept over the Space Rings in their hands, “Unless you give me the Space Rings to inspect.”
Several of the High Rank Open Heaven masters’ faces sank as Ti Zheng stared coldly at Yang Kai, “Boy, do you know what you’re saying?”
“You don’t want to give it to me, right?” Yang Kai looked at him arrogantly and sneered, “If you don’t give it to me, then so be it. I will go back to the Void Land, I don’t believe I won’t be able to obtain a High Rank Yin Element in my lifetime!”
Saying so, he was about to lead the way back home.
Ti Zheng asked, “Do you not care about Lan Youruo’s life or death?”
Yang Kai glanced at him and said, “Then you should pray that my Proprietress is safe and sound. If she loses even a strand of her hair, when I break through to the Ninth Order, it will be the day of the destruction of the Myriad Demons Heaven! As for the rest of you, I will visit you one by one. I hope you can still smile when the time comes.”
“Impudence!” Ti Zheng flew into a rage.
“Little Friend Yang, please wait a moment!” The other High Rank Open Heaven suddenly called out, his voice ancient and obviously old.
Yang Kai looked over coldly, “What advice do you have?”
The old voice said, “Little Friend Yang should have been able to cultivate to the Half Open Heaven for quite some time now, so you should know that Space Rings are the second face of us cultivators and cannot be easily inspected by others. If Little Friend Yang wants to inspect our Space Rings now, it’s no different from slapping our faces. We old fellows have lived for so many years, so we should have some face.”
Yang Kai sneered, “Four High Rank Open Heaven masters scheming against a puny Emperor Realm like me, I really can’t tell if you have any shame.”
The old voice said lightly, “If Little Friend was alone, us old fogies naturally wouldn’t have come out. However, since Little Friend has a powerful ally by his side, we have no choice but to take action. Now is not the time to talk about this. What this old master means is that the ring can be checked by you, just to prove that we are not lying and that there really isn’t any Sixth Grade Yin Element you need. However, if Little Friend can’t find a Sixth Grade Yin Element after checking it, what should we do?”
“What do you want to do?” Yang Kai asked.
The old voice said, “If Little Friend wants to slap our faces, we can’t take this blow for nothing. Little Friend must pay a price!”
Yang Kai swept his eyes over the four of them and frowned for a moment before gritting his teeth and saying, “I don’t believe you really don’t have a Sixth Grade Yin Element. If I can confirm that you don’t have one, then I’ll break through to the Fifth Order!”
His expression was like that of a gambler who had lost all hope.
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
Yue He hurriedly said, “Young Master must not!”
Unable to break through to the Seventh Order, Yang Kai could only settle for the Sixth Order. Reaching the Fifth Order was simply unacceptable. Reaching the Fifth Order meant that the limit of his future cultivation would only be the Seventh Order, which meant that Yang Kai’s initial goal in the Martial Dao is lower.
Old Bai also said, “Yang Kai, with your potential, you absolutely cannot become a Fifth Order.”
Qu Huachang also tried to persuade him.
Yang Kai smiled bitterly and said, “Seventh Order can’t be sought after. Now that they don’t even have a Sixth Grade, what can I do if I don't break through to the Fifth Order? Wait until they go to Shattered Star City to find a Sixth Grade? I don’t know what will happen to the Proprietress in a month’s time, I can’t wait any longer.” Saying so, he secretly winked at Yue He, “Don’t forget what else I have.”
Yue He, who was about to persuade him, suddenly seemed to remember something.
That’s right, the Young Master still had that thing in his possession. With it, there was no difference between reaching the Fifth Order and the Sixth Order. He could also use it to numb others, making them think that Yang Kai was only a Fifth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator, allowing him to completely escape from the whirlpools of the various Cave Heaven Paradise.
If so, it might not be a bad thing.
