So that was how it was! He had actually neglected his greatest reliance, his greatest foundation!
“The Heavenly Law has a spirit!” Yang Kai lowered his head and said in a low voice, his long hair falling over his forehead, “You want the Star Boundary, have you asked the Heavenly Law of the Star Boundary?”
Sitting in the main hall of Heavenly Sword Palace, Zuo Quan Hui sneered, “When this King occupies that place, this King will become the Heavenly Law!”
Yang Kai slowly shook his head, “Then I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you!”
Zuo Quan Hui’s face sank as he suddenly had a bad feeling, as if something bad was about to happen.
Yang Kai grabbed his spear with one hand and suddenly formed a series of hand seals with the other, muttering in a low voice, “Heaven and Earth lend me strength!”
Buzz…
The void seemed to tremble slightly at this moment as everything came to a halt.
In the next moment, the World Tree, which had already reached a height of a thousand zhang, began to sway violently, its giant canopy flapping as a green light shot out from the Star Boundary and struck Yang Kai.
Yang Kai didn’t move, but his aura, which had become incredibly weak due to over-exhaustion, was rapidly rising at a speed visible to the naked eye, rising again and again! The raging Small Universe calmed down, a calmness he had never felt before, and the Small Universe's foundation was also rapidly increasing.
A terrifying pressure swept out in all directions, causing the void to tremble.
Inside Heavenly Sword Palace, many of Heavenly Sword Union’s Open Heaven Stages were stunned. In the void, the Void Land's thousand people also wore a look of amazement.
In an instant, Yang Kai’s aura had reached the peak, even stronger than his original peak. Although he had yet to reach the Seventh Order, he was not far from it.
Zuo Quan Hui’s eyes twitched as he stared at this scene in disbelief.
“Borrowing force from the Heaven and Earth, so that’s how it is!” Zhan Wuhen’s eyes flashed with understanding, and the other Great Emperors also quickly reacted.
Yang Kai was borrowing the power of the Star Boundary! Any Great Emperor who was recognized by the Heaven Law of a Universe World could borrow the power of the Universe World, but this time, Yang Kai was borrowing power beyond his imagination!
In general, there was a vast difference between the Emperor Realm and the Open Heaven Stage. Any Open Heaven Stage cultivator, even if they were at the lowest level, could easily kill an Emperor Realm cultivator.
But at certain times, in certain special circumstances, the Emperor Realm could display the power of a Low Rank Open Heaven Stage master!
Just like how many Great Emperors had fought against Great Demon God in the past!
The Great Demon God definitely had the capital of Open Heaven Stage at that time, but in the end, he was still jointly killed by the Great Emperors. The fundamental reason for this was because the Great Emperors had borrowed the World Force of the Star Boundary to display strength that was enough to kill the Great Demon God.
In the past, when the Star Boundary had been destroyed and the living had suffered great losses, the Great Emperors still had the capital to fight against the Great Demon God. Now that the Star Boundary had received the World Tree’s support, its foundation had become incredibly strong, and the World Force Yang Kai had borrowed was far greater than it had been before.
At this moment, it was as if he has the entire Star Boundary’s World Force supporting him from behind.
Zuo Quan Hui was a Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator with rich experience. It wasn’t that he didn’t know about the secrets of the Universe World, but under normal circumstances, how much help could a Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator like Yang Kai receive from the Universe World?
It was better than nothing!
However, the situation in the Star Boundary was completely different from that of the ordinary Universe World. With the World Tree’s feedback, its foundation was extremely rich. In this fierce battle, the World Force of the Open Heaven Stage cultivators who had died on both sides was also devoured by the World Tree, allowing the Star Boundary’s foundation to become even stronger.
The Heavenly Law spirit had sent a message to Yang Kai, who was doing his best to stop the powerful enemies in the vicinity of the Star Boundary, fighting to the death to protect the Star Boundary’s safety. Naturally, the Heavenly Law of the Star Boundary had sensed it, and the message that had been lingering in Yang Kai’s heart was a signal from the Heavenly Law of the Star Boundary.
Yang Kai understood a bit too late, but he still managed to arrive in time.
“Zuo Quan Hui, making things difficult for my Star Boundary in this Great Domain is your biggest mistake!” Yang Kai’s World Force surged as he felt an indescribable power surge through his body. Borrowing the power of the Star Boundary, he had not only recovered, but his strength was also only a step away from the Seventh Order.
“You’re still only a Sixth-Order, how dare you boast so shamelessly? When you break through to the Seventh Order, it won’t be too late for you to act presumptuously with this King!” Zuo Quan Hui was extremely angry. As he finished speaking, the Heavenly Sword Palace’s sword light shot out once more and a Divine Ability he had personally released flew towards Yang Kai.
Yang Kai raised his spear to block it, but although he was forced back thousands of kilometers away, he was no longer in a sorry state.
The gap in strength between him and Zuo Quan Hui had been greatly reduced.
This scene was witnessed by everyone present, and the morale of everyone in the Void Land suddenly soared as they all took action to block the Heavenly Sword Palace’s attack.
The various Great Emperors glanced at each other but didn’t say anything, all of them seeing through each other’s thoughts.
“Little brat Yang, I’ll leave this place to you!” Iron Blood Great Emperor suddenly transmitted.
Yang Kai turned his head in surprise and saw the Iron Blood Great Emperor’s figure instantly disappear from his original spot. When he looked back at the others, he saw that Bustling World, Beast Martial, Serene Soul, Flower Shadow, Ice Feather, and the others had also disappeared, all of them staring at him expectantly.
Yang Kai instantly understood and immediately shouted, “Everyone, don’t worry, we’ll definitely kill this old dog outside our house!”
In the Star Boundary, atop the World Tree, figures suddenly appeared. They were none other than the Great Emperors who had disappeared from the battlefield.
They had never cultivated the Space Laws, so under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for them to travel hundreds of thousands of kilometers in an instant, but the Star Boundary was their homeland. Since Yang Kai was able to obtain the Star Boundary’s assistance and return from the Domain Gate, it was naturally possible for them to do the same. Breaking through hundreds of thousands of kilometers was not difficult.
They are old friends who had known each other for tens of thousands of years, and after exchanging a glance, all of them smiled and sat down cross-legged, pouring their World Force into the Star Boundary.
The six Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage masters’ assistance caused the entire Star Boundary to tremble slightly, as if welcoming their return.
In the void, Yang Kai’s aura was slowly stabilizing, but at this moment, it suddenly shot up again. This was the support and sacrifice of the Great Emperors, the hope of countless living beings in the Star Boundary.
Even so, he was still unable to break through the shackles of the Sixth Order. Although he was only a hair away from breaking through, it was still like a thin membrane. If he didn’t break through this barrier, he would never be able to see the glory of the Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage.
Sixth Order is a Mid Rank while Seventh Order is a High Rank. The gap between them was simply too great.
Just a little more…
Just as Yang Kai thought he had reached his limit, another wave of energy suddenly arrived. This wave of energy came at just the right time, kicking the weak shackles away.
Boom…
An invisible shockwave burst out from Yang Kai, the power of a High Rank Open Heaven's prestige filled the void!
On the World Tree, two figures gently descended, one of them wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, “It’s not too late!”
Another person said, “What a pity, I thought that after advancing to the Sixth Order, I would be able to have a good fight with others, but I didn’t expect I wouldn’t have such an opportunity!”
The Iron Blood Great Emperor opened his eyes and smiled lightly, “The two of you aren’t good at fighting, so it’s best if you don’t cause trouble.”
Wondrous Pill and Tian Shu looked at each other and had to admit, “You’re right!”
The two of them had been cultivating in the Void Land all this time, attempting to break through to the Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage. When they had just successfully broken through and were preparing to head to the Domain Gate to assist, Hei He had brought Lan Xun to the Void Land.
When the two of them learned of the situation, they rushed to the Star Boundary, but they were still a step behind Heavenly Sword Union.
By the time the two of them returned to the Star Boundary’s Great Domain, Heavenly Sword Union and the Void Land had been fighting for a long time and had only just arrived at the edge of the battlefield when they saw Yang Kai borrowing the World Force and the other old friends return to the Star Boundary.
Seeing that Yang Kai was still only a Sixth Order, only a step away from breaking through to the Seventh Order, the two of them didn’t hesitate to return to the Star Boundary.
“I wonder if Little Boy Yang has reached the Seventh Order yet,” Wondrous Pill Great Emperor looked up into the sky and muttered.
“Old dog, this day will be your death anniversary next year!” In the void, Yang Kai was high-spirited, the World Force surrounding his body swirling as he thrust out his spear, transforming it into a spear shadow that filled the sky as it descended towards Heavenly Sword Palace.
Carrying the hopes of all the Great Emperors and the hope of countless living beings in the Star Boundary, how could her lose this battle?
Brilliant light flashed across the Heavenly Sword Palace as the Formation shattered and the barrier collapsed, sending out waves of destruction aura.
Although Zuo Quan Hui was desperately repairing the Formation, how could he possibly catch up?
His greatest reliance was only a grade higher than Yang Kai’s cultivation level, but now that he didn’t even have such a support, the situation became even worse.
Attacks from all directions flew towards Heavenly Sword Palace like a storm.
Everyone from Heavenly Sword Union tried their best to resist, but it was difficult for them to keep up.
In less than a dozen breaths of time, the Heavenly Sword Palace suddenly released a dazzling light and an indescribably terrifying aura.
“All of you, dodge!” Yang Kai realized that the situation was not good, and with a loud shout, he used his Space Laws to wrap the people around him and quickly retreated.
Not only were they retreating, but inside Heavenly Sword Palace, countless figures were fleeing for their lives.
In the blink of an eye, a terrifying energy burst out, like a great sun exploding in the sky. Some of the slower Heavenly Sword Union cultivators didn’t even have time to make a sound before they were enveloped by this dazzling light and instantly died.
The aftershocks of the shock waves crashed down on everyone, causing them to feel as if they were standing in the middle of a vast ocean, unable to stand firm. The protective Divine Abilities and artifacts they released all began to ripple.
Yang Kai stared straight ahead.
The Heavenly Sword Palace had exploded! After more than a month of obstruction, they had finally managed to take down this tough bone.
The cultivators from the Void Land had evacuated in time, and apart from a few Low Rank Open Heaven cultivators who had suffered some minor injuries, no one had died.
On the other hand, Heavenly Sword Union’s Open Heaven Stage cultivators suffered heavy casualties.
The Heavenly Sword Palace had cost countless resources to build, and the instant it was destroyed, the power it produced was no less than a Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage's strike.
When the dust settled, only three or four hundred Open Heaven Stage masters remained from Heavenly Sword Union, all of them with ashen faces.
