MARTIAL PEAK 4773


YANG KAI WALKED OUT FROM THE VOID, HIS STEPS CALM.


SEVERAL HUNDRED PAIRS OF EYES TURNED TOWARDS YANG KAI, AND WHEREVER HE WENT, THE CROWD WOULD VOLUNTARILY OPEN UP A PATH FOR HIM. ALTHOUGH THE BRUISED AND BATTERED LANG YA OPEN HEAVEN LOOKED QUITE MISERABLE, THEY ALL LOOKED TOWARDS HIM WITH ADMIRATION.


IN THIS TRIAL, YANG KAI HAD SINGLE-HANDEDLY RESISTED ALL OF LANG YA’S SIXTH ORDER OPEN HEAVEN. NO MATTER WHAT METHODS HE USED OR WHETHER THE SECT MASTER’S ORDERS WERE BIASED TOWARDS HIM, BEING ABLE TO REACH THIS POINT WAS ENOUGH TO WIN LANG YA OPEN HEAVENS’ RESPECT.


YANG KAI NODDED SLIGHTLY TO THE PEOPLE AROUND HIM, PASSED THROUGH THE CROWD, AND ARRIVED AT THE FLOWERLESS SPIRIT CONTINENT.


IN FRONT OF HIM, YUE MANG WAS RIDING THE WIND WITH A DIGNIFIED EXPRESSION, WHILE BEHIND HIM STOOD FOUR SIXTH ORDER OPEN HEAVEN.


THERE WEREN’T MANY PEOPLE IN YUE MANG’S GROUP, ONLY FIVE INCLUDING HIM, BUT EACH OF THEM WAS AN OUTSTANDING SIXTH ORDER OPEN HEAVEN CULTIVATOR WHO HAD BEEN IMMERSED IN THIS REALM FOR MANY YEARS.


ALTHOUGH THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN THIS GROUP WAS SMALL, IN TERMS OF COMBAT STRENGTH, THEY COULD BE THE MOST AGGRESSIVE AND POWERFUL GROUP IN LANG YA.


THE FOUR OF THEM ALSO STARED AT YANG KAI INTENTLY. AFTER SO MANY DAYS SINCE THE START OF THE TRIAL, THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THEY HAD SEEN YANG KAI IN PERSON, SO THEY WERE NATURALLY VERY CURIOUS ABOUT THIS YOUNG MAN WHO HAD CAUSED SUCH A STIR IN LANG YA PARADISE.


AS THEIR EYES MET, YUE MANG APOLOGIZED SLIGHTLY, “JUNIOR BROTHER YANG, PLEASE FORGIVE ME!”


IF POSSIBLE, HE WOULDN’T WANT TO JOIN FORCES WITH HIS JUNIOR BROTHERS TO DEAL WITH ONE PERSON, BUT HE KNEW HE WASN’T YANG KAI’S OPPONENT. TODAY’S BATTLE WAS RELATED TO LANG YA’S FACE, SO EVEN IF HE DIDN’T WANT TO, HE HAD TO PROTECT IT.


“SURE!” YANG KAI SMILED.


“OPEN THE FORMATION!” YUE MANG WAVED HIS HAND.


AS SOON AS HE FINISHED SPEAKING, THE FOUR PEOPLE BEHIND HIM ALL CHANGED THEIR HAND SEALS AND SHOT OUT STREAMS OF LIGHT, CAUSING THE FLOWERLESS SPIRIT PROVINCE TO TREMBLE AND SHAKE.


IN AN INSTANT, THE ENTIRE SPIRIT PROVINCE’S WORLD WAS SEALED, TURNING THIS PLACE INTO A CAGE!


ON THE SURFACE, FLOWERLESS SPIRIT PROVINCE DIDN’T SEEM TO HAVE CHANGED MUCH, NOT EVEN HINDERING ANYONE FROM ENTERING OR EXITING, BUT THERE WAS NO DOUBT THAT THERE WERE INVISIBLE BARRIERS IN THE VOID. AS LONG AS YANG KAI WAS INSIDE THIS FLOWERLESS SPIRIT PROVINCE, HE COULD FORGET ABOUT USING HIS TELEPORTATION TECHNIQUE UNLESS HE BROKE THROUGH THIS CAGE.


THIS WOULD UNDOUBTEDLY BE A DECISIVE BATTLE TO DETERMINE VICTORY AND DEFEAT.


MANY OF THE SURROUNDING LANG YA OPEN HEAVEN DISCIPLES LOOKED ON EXCITEDLY AS THEIR DIVINE SENSES INTERACTED!


“SENIOR BROTHERS, WHAT ARE THE PROSPECTS OF THIS BATTLE? DOES SENIOR BROTHER YUE MANG AND THE OTHERS HAVE ANY HOPE OF WINNING?”


“THIS BOY SURNAMED YANG IS INDEED POWERFUL, BUT HIS GREATEST RELIANCE IS STILL HIS SPACE ABILITY. NOW THAT THE FLOWERLESS SPIRIT PROVINCE HAS BEEN SEALED OFF BY THE GREAT ARRAY, IT’S IMPOSSIBLE FOR HIM TO ESCAPE. WITHOUT SPACE TELEPORTATION, IT’LL BE DIFFICULT FOR HIM TO CONTINUE HIS GLORIOUS PATH!”


“SENIOR BROTHER IS RIGHT, LANG YA WILL WIN THIS BATTLE!”


“SIGH, THERE’S NOTHING TO BE PROUD OF. EVEN IF WE WIN, IT’S ONLY BECAUSE WE HAVE THE ADVANTAGE IN NUMBERS. THIS TIME, I’VE FINALLY EXPERIENCED WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE SOMEONE STRONGER THAN YOU. THERE’S NO LIMIT IN THIS WORLD, I REALLY NEED TO GO INTO SECLUDED CULTIVATION.”



LANG YA’S NUMEROUS OPEN HEAVEN MASTERS WERE UNDOUBTEDLY NOT OPTIMISTIC ABOUT YANG KAI’S CHANCES. HIS GREATEST RELIANCE HAD BEEN RESTRICTED BY THE GREAT ARRAY, SO YANG KAI WAS BOUND TO FACE A ONE VERSUS FIVE SITUATION. WITH ELDEST SENIOR BROTHER YUE MANG LEADING THE FIVE, WHICH ONE OF THEM WASN’T AN EXPERIENCED VETERAN SIXTH ORDER? IF THEY WERE TO LOSE LIKE THIS, IT WOULD BE TOO RIDICULOUS.


WHILE EVERYONE WAS TALKING, YANG KAI TOOK A DEEP BREATH AND LOOKED TOWARDS YUE MANG AND THE OTHERS, “SENIOR BROTHERS, ARE YOU READY? IF YOU ARE, I’LL… GO!”


BEFORE HE FINISHED SPEAKING, YANG KAI’S ENTIRE BODY ALREADY CARRIED A TERRIFYING AURA AS HE CRASHED TOWARDS YUE MANG AND THE OTHERS. WHEN THE WORLD FORCE WAS ACTIVATED, EVEN THE SPECTATORS FROM AFAR FELT A SUFFOCATING AURA.


THE FACES OF YUE MANG AND THE OTHERS WHO WERE STANDING AT THE FRONT CHANGED DRASTICALLY AS THEY QUICKLY SCATTERED!


YANG KAI’S MOMENTUM OF WINNING HUNDREDS OF BATTLES WAS SIMPLY TOO TERRIFYING. FACING THIS MOMENTUM, EVEN PEOPLE AS STRONG AS YUE MANG FELT LIKE THEY WERE BEING CRUSHED.


WITH A LOUD BANG, IT WAS AS IF AN ENTIRE WORLD HAD CRASHED DOWN, SHAKING THE ENTIRE FLOWERLESS SPIRIT PROVINCE.


AS THE DUST ROSE, THE SOUND OF WORLD FORCE COLLIDING RANG OUT, AND EVERYONE’S EYES WENT WIDE AS THEY WATCHED A FIGURE SHUTTLING THROUGH THE THICK SMOKE LIKE A FISH.


A MOMENT LATER, TWO FIGURES SOARED INTO THE SKY.


EVERYONE LOOKED OVER AND GASPED.


AT SOME POINT, YANG KAI HAD TAKEN OUT A LONG SPEAR. THE RAIN OF SPEARS POURED DOWN LIKE A WATERFALL, AND THE WORLD’S STRENGTH POURED OUT WITHOUT RESTRAINT. IN FRONT OF HIM, A SENIOR BROTHER’S FACE WAS PALE AS HE SLOWLY RETREATED, THE ARTIFACT IN HIS HAND CONSTANTLY BLOCKING THE LONG SPEAR.


EACH TIME THEY COLLIDED, IT WAS A CLASH OF THEIR STRENGTH.


YANG KAI’S MURDEROUS INTENT WAS ALMOST TANGIBLE, LIKE HE WAS GOING CRAZY, CAUSING EVERYONE TO WONDER IF THIS YANG FELLOW WAS PLANNING TO KILL THIS SENIOR BROTHER!


UNDER SUCH A VIOLENT STORM OF ATTACKS, THE SENIOR BROTHER DIDN’T DARE TO STOP AND WAS FORCED BACK BY YANG KAI. TWO FIGURES, LIKE TWO STREAKS OF LIGHT, SHOT ACROSS THE SKY.


YUE MANG AND THE OTHERS WERE BOTH SHOCKED AND FURIOUS AS THEY HURRIEDLY CHASED AFTER YANG KAI, BEFORE THEY COULD EVEN REACH HIM, A SERIES OF DIVINE ABILITIES AND SECRET ARTS WERE ALREADY FLYING TOWARDS YANG KAI.


YANG KAI TURNED A DEAF EAR TO THIS.


IN THE NEXT INSTANT, THE DIVINE ABILITIES AND SECRET ARTS STRUCK YANG KAI’S BACK, CAUSING YUE MANG AND THE OTHERS TO BREAK OUT A COLD SWEAT.


AFTER ALL, THIS WASN’T A LIFE OR DEATH BATTLE, SO YUE MANG AND THE OTHERS DIDN’T USE THEIR FULL STRENGTH. OTHERWISE, IF THEY KILLED YANG KAI, IT WOULDN’T END WELL.


BUT EVEN SO, WITH THE FOUR OF THEM WORKING TOGETHER, THE POWER OF THEIR DIVINE ABILITIES AND SECRET ARTS WAS NOT TO BE UNDERESTIMATED. IF YANG KAI WERE TO TAKE IT HEAD ON, HE WOULD LIKELY SUFFER A TERRIBLE FATE.


WHY DIDN’T HE TRY TO DODGE? WITH HIS SKILL, HE COULD EASILY DODGE, NO ONE COULD UNDERSTAND.


HOWEVER, IN THE NEXT INSTANT, A SHOCKING SCENE OCCURRED. AFTER EATING SO MANY DIVINE ABILITIES AND SECRET ARTS, YANG KAI ACTED AS IF NOTHING HAD HAPPENED, COMPLETELY IGNORING EVERYTHING BEHIND HIM AS HE STARED AT THE SIXTH ORDER CULTIVATOR HE WAS FORCING BACK.


THE DRAGON SCALE CLOTHING WAS FORMED FROM YANG KAI’S DRAGON SCALE ARMOUR. THE DRAGON SCALE ARMOUR’S DEFENSIVE CAPABILITIES WERE EXTRAORDINARY TO BEGIN WITH, AND TO A CERTAIN EXTENT, IT COULD BLOCK AN ATTACK FROM A SEVENTH ORDER OPEN HEAVEN STAGE.


WHEN HE FOUGHT WITH SHI ZHENG BEFORE, YANG KAI HAD USED THE DRAGON SCALE CLOTHING TO BLOCK SOME OF SHI ZHENG’S DIVINE ABILITIES.


EVEN A SEVENTH ORDER OPEN HEAVEN'S DIVINE ABILITY COULD BE BLOCKED, LET ALONE A SIXTH ORDER OPEN HEAVEN BLOW.


PERHAPS HE WOULDN’T BE ABLE TO WITHSTAND SUCH AN ATTACK FOR A LONG TIME, BUT IT WOULDN’T BE A PROBLEM IN THE SHORT TERM.


THE SIXTH ORDER MAN IN FRONT OF YANG KAI WAS ON THE VERGE OF TEARS. HE DIDN’T KNOW HOW HE HAD PROVOKED YANG KAI, BUT THIS GUY HAD BEEN TARGETING HIM THE MOMENT HE ARRIVED, SEEMINGLY DETERMINED TO KILL HIM.


FACING YANG KAI’S CRAZY ATTACKS, HE ONLY HAD THE STRENGTH TO RESIST AND WAS FORCED TO RETREAT!


YUE MANG’S EXPRESSION SUDDENLY CHANGED AS HE SHOUTED, “JUNIOR BROTHER FENG, YOU CAN’T RETREAT!”


THE SIXTH ORDER OPEN HEAVEN WAS CALLED JUNIOR BROTHER FENG WAS STUNNED FOR A MOMENT, BUT BEFORE HE COULD FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING, YANG KAI SUDDENLY GRINNED AT HIM AND STRETCHED OUT HIS HAND TOWARDS HIM, CAUSING THE SPACE LAWS TO SURGE AND THE WORLD TO SPIN!


YUE MANG AND THE OTHER THREE RUSHED OVER, BUT YANG KAI AND JUNIOR BROTHER FENG WERE NOWHERE TO BE SEEN, ONLY A FAINT FLUCTUATION OF THE SPACE LAWS REMAINED.


YUE MANG’S FACE WAS ASHEN!


THE MANY OPEN HEAVEN STAGE CULTIVATORS WHO WERE WATCHING ALSO BURST INTO AN UPROAR!


JUST NOW, WHEN YANG KAI SUDDENLY ATTACKED, IT WAS AS IF HE WANTED TO KILL JUNIOR BROTHER FENG, CAUSING THEM TO BECOME EXTREMELY NERVOUS, FEARING THAT SOMETHING UNEXPECTED WOULD HAPPEN IN THIS TRIAL.


NO ONE NOTICED THAT WHILE JUNIOR BROTHER FENG WAS BEING FORCED BACK BY YANG KAI, THE BATTLEFIELD HAD ALREADY BEEN DRAWN OUT OF THE FLOWERLESS SPIRIT PROVINCE!


THE HEAVEN SEALING EARTH LOCKING ARRAY ONLY COVERED FLOWERLESS SPIRIT PROVINCE, SO YANG KAI REALLY COULDN’T USE HIS TELEPORTATION TECHNIQUE IN SPIRIT PROVINCE, BUT ONCE HE LEFT THE SPIRIT PROVINCE, HE WOULDN’T BE AFFECTED.


FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, HIS PLAN WAS TO CONTROL THE ENTIRE BATTLEFIELD, AND ONLY THEN WOULD HE BE ABLE TO DEFEAT THEM ONE BY ONE!


“WHAT IS HE DOING?” SOMEONE ASKED CURIOUSLY.


ACCORDING TO YANG KAI’S IMPOSING MOMENTUM AND THE STRENGTH HE DISPLAYED JUST NOW, EVEN IF HE DIDN’T RUN, HE WOULD STILL BE ABLE TO FIGHT ONE AGAINST FIVE. ALTHOUGH NO ONE COULD SAY FOR SURE WHAT THE OUTCOME WOULD BE, IT WOULD DEFINITELY BE A SATISFYING BATTLE!


HOWEVER, JUST LIKE HOW HE HAD DEALT WITH THE OTHER TEAMS, HE HAD QUICKLY CAPTURED JUNIOR BROTHER FENG AND FLED.


SEEING THIS SCENE, EVERYONE WHO HAD BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO A GREAT BATTLE FELT EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE, AS IF THEY HADN’T HAD ENOUGH YET.


“THIS GUY… DON’T TELL ME HE WANTS TO SELL HEALING PILLS TO JUNIOR BROTHER FENG AND FEELS THAT IT’S INCONVENIENT FOR OTHERS TO DISTURB HIM, SO HE’S ACTING LIKE THIS?” SOMEONE GUESSED.


MANY PEOPLE HAD SUCH SPECULATIONS BEFORE, BECAUSE WHEN THERE WERE ONLY TWO PEOPLE LEFT IN A TEAM, YANG KAI HAD DONE THE SAME.


SPECULATION ASIDE, THERE WAS NO WAY TO PROVE IT.


THE SCENE IN FRONT OF THEM FURTHER PROVED THAT YANG KAI REALLY HAD SUCH INTENTIONS.


“JUST HOW GREEDY IS THIS GUY…” THE GROUP OF LANG YA OPEN HEAVEN MASTERS WERE SPEECHLESS. THIS WAS ALREADY THE FINAL BATTLE, COULDN’T THEY JUST FIGHT IT OUT SO THAT EVERYONE WOULD BE CONVINCED EVEN IF THEY LOST? WHY DID HE HAVE TO PLAY SUCH A FANCY GAME?


BUT THEN AGAIN, A SET OF SIXTH GRADE RESOURCE WAS INDEED QUITE VALUABLE, SO YANG KAI’S ACTIONS WERE UNDERSTANDABLE. IF THEY HAD SUCH AN OPPORTUNITY, THEY MIGHT HAVE CHOSEN TO DO THE SAME.


YUE MANG WAS STILL STANDING IN PLACE, HIS EXPRESSION EXTREMELY UGLY.


HOWEVER, AFTER A DOZEN BREATHS OF TIME, A RIPPLE SUDDENLY APPEARED IN THE AIR AND YUE MANG SEEMED TO WAKE UP FROM A DREAM, HIS EXPRESSION CHANGING DRASTICALLY AS HE SHOUTED, “QUICKLY RETURN!”


PREVIOUSLY, THEY HAD CHASED YANG KAI ALL THE WAY OUT OF FLOWERLESS SPIRIT PROVINCE, ONLY NOW REALIZING THE DANGEROUS SITUATION THEY WERE IN.


HOWEVER, IT WAS ALREADY TOO LATE. YANG KAI’S FIGURE SUDDENLY APPEARED AND WHEN HE LOOKED AROUND, HE WAS IMMEDIATELY AMUSED, “SENIOR BROTHERS, ARE YOU WAITING FOR ME?”


AS HE SPOKE, HE WAVED HIS HAND AND THE SPACE LAWS SURGED AS THE [SO CLOSE, YET WORLDS APART] SECRET TECHNIQUE SPREAD OUT.


THE VOID STRETCHED ENDLESSLY.


EVERYONE’S VISION BLURRED FOR A MOMENT. THEY CLEARLY SAW THE FOUR SENIOR BROTHERS, LED BY YUE MANG, FLEEING TOWARDS THE FLOWERLESS SPIRIT PROVINCE, BUT THEIR FIGURES STRANGELY STOPPED MOVING.


YANG KAI TOOK A STEP FORWARD, ARRIVED BESIDE ONE OF THEM, GRABBED HIM, AND TURNED TO LEAVE!


YUE MANG ROARED ANGRILY, “JUNIOR BROTHER YUN!”


JUNIOR BROTHER YUN HAD ALSO BEEN CAPTURED!


ONLY AFTER YANG KAI AND JUNIOR BROTHER YUN’S FIGURES DISAPPEARED DID THE SPACE LAWS DISAPPEAR, ALLOWING YUE MANG AND THE OTHERS TO REGAIN THEIR FREEDOM.


NOT DARING TO STAY OUTSIDE ANY LONGER, THE THREE OF THEM QUICKLY FLEW BACK TO THE FLOWERLESS SPIRIT PROVINCE, THEIR FACES FILLED WITH EMBARRASSMENT.
