Chapter 162

The fierce Yuan Qi was blasted out along with the fist strength. Yang Kai retracted as soon as he touched and floated backward nimbly to avoid the long tail that the big snake rolled over.

The big snake turned around and was about to pounce when suddenly there were three dull bangs at the position just hit by Yang Kai. Visible to the naked eye, a large piece of flesh and blood bulged outwards. The scorching True Yang Yuan Qi exploded in the flesh and blood, blasting that piece of position until the skin was torn and blood was flowing.

The big snake was in pain, and its dozen-zhang-long body was like a long whip being swung by someone, stirring up a cloud of dust and smoke on the mountaintop.

Yang Kai frowned. He found that he had somewhat overestimated the strength of this big snake.

Just now, when he suddenly saw such a big thing, he thought it was at least a fifth or sixth order monster beast but unexpectedly, he only needed one strike to wound it.

It wasn’t even at the Fifth or Sixth Order at all. At best, it could only be considered a Fourth Order Monster Beast, equivalent to a martial artist at the Lihe Stage.

It had grown so big and looked so good for nothing.

With a better understanding of the situation, Yang Kai’s feet shifted, and while the big snake was rolling to its limit, he attacked it again. The big snake rolled even more violently. However, it clearly doesn’t want to wait for death. Its long tail lashed out, roll up a whistling wind and swept towards Yang Kai’s waist.

If not for the help of his movement technique, this strike might have caused Yang Kai a lot of trouble. But with the movement technique, dodging such an attack was simply a piece of cake.

Missing with one strike, the big snake hissed and spat out its snake core, opening its mouth and spraying out a cloud of blood-red mist. If Yang Kai hadn’t dodged quickly, he would definitely have been enveloped by it.

Yang Kai’s expression was cold and stern. He wasn’t afraid of this big snake; it was just that the poisonous mist it sprayed out was a bit troublesome. But it was only a bit troublesome. By holding his breath and not allowing himself to be wrapped in the poisonous mist, this big snake couldn’t harm him at all.

While Yang Kai was fighting the big snake outside, the Earth Demon that had rushed into the big snake’s abdomen wrapped in the Broken Soul Cone wasn’t idle either. Although the strength that the Earth Demon could currently display wasn’t strong, the internal organs of any living creature were always extremely fragile. Even if the Broken Soul Cone wasn’t sharp, it was still a weapon.

Soon, the great snake was covered with wounds inside its body. The intense pain made it impossible for it to fight Yang Kai anymore. Its long body would curl up and stretch straight for a while, rolling back and forth on the mountain.

Yang Kai watched coldly. He no longer had the need to make a move.

The great snake’s strength was not so good, but its vitality was extremely strong. The Earth Demon tossed and turned inside it for a full half an hour before it stopped struggling and died on the ground.

There was a wriggling in the great snake’s abdomen. The Earth Demon, wrapped in the Broken Soul Cone drilled out and floated in front of Yang Kai. They looked at each other indifferently for a while, speechless.

“Young master… next time there is such a thing, let this old servant know in advance, so that I can have a mental preparation.” The Earth Demon felt a little wronged. Suddenly being thrown into the mouth of a beast by Yang Kai, if it were someone with a smaller nerve, wouldn’t they be scared out of their wits?

“En.” Yang Kai nodded seriously.

The Earth Demon didn’t dare to say a word.

But Yang Kai asked： “Don’t you think this beast is a bit strange？”

“Where is it strange?” The Earth Demon asked cautiously.

“Its strength… is very low！ At least, lower than I expected！”

The Earth Demon chuckled: “Young master. This great snake just swallowed the Blood Coagulation Pearl and became like this. Naturally, it doesn’t have any real ability. And along the way, have you found any traces of beasts here?

Yang Kai shook his head.

“That’s right. This thing might originally be just an ordinary little snake. It swallowed the Blood Coagulation Pearl and managed to survive by chance, thus evolving into a Demonic Beast. It can be said that it is the only Demonic Beast in this place.”

“An ordinary little snake grew into such a big guy?” Yang Kai looked horrified. “Powerful.”

After thinking for a while, he was a little happy again and said, “If a little snake can swallow it, then there should be no problem for me to swallow it either.”

“Nothing in the world is absolute. If Young Master is not at ease, he can first try swallowing the inner core of this Demonic Beast.”

“This proposal is good.” Yang Kai nodded.

He came to the big snake, cut open its body, and took out the inner core.

This inner core was also blood red in color, but only the size of a pigeon egg, and it still contained the remaining energy of the Blood Coagulation Pearl.

After telling the Earth Demon to protect him, Yang Kai wiped the inner core on his clothes and directly stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it.

With the operation of the True Yang Art, Yang Kai quickly felt a burst of energy melt in his abdomen and rush straight into his flesh and blood, and there was also a lot of evil aura mixed in it.

This should be the aura of the devil who fell here.

In an instant, Yang Kai’s whole body of flesh and blood turned extremely red, as bright as blood, and the whole person also seemed to be full of evil qi.

Although the appearance looked terrifying, in fact there was not much danger inside. Yang Kai only felt that his mind was slightly impacted and then stabilized. The True Yang Yuan Qi in the meridians was originally the nemesis of the evil Qi, so naturally it would not be afraid of it.

Under the operation of the True Yang Art, the evil Qi was gradually refined and burned, and only the essence remained.

The essence obtained this time was not of the yang attribute and naturally would not condense into Yang Liquid. But it was also strangely not absorbed by the Proud Bone Golden Body. Instead, it was accommodated into Yang Kai’s flesh and blood, making every cell in the whole body rejoice and every inch of muscle constantly move.

It took Yang Kai a day to gradually refine a single Inner Core. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were like electricity, and Yang Kai felt that his whole person was a little different.

It was not an improvement in strength nor a leap in state of mind, but a change in his own body. Compared to before refining the Inner Core, it was much stronger. The tumbling Qi and blood in his body contained a surging force, as if he could break the sky with just one hand without using Yuan Qi.

Young master, how do you feel？” Di Mo asked with concern.”

Not bad. Is the biggest function of this Coagulation Blood Pearl to improve the body？

Naturally. It was originally transformed from the flesh and blood essence of that little devil. It may also improve the realm a little, but the greatest benefit is to enhance the physical quality.

Then why did you say it would greatly increase a person’s strength？

The Earth Demon stammered for a while and said, “Young master, your understanding is a bit one-sided. The increase in strength does not only refer to the improvement of the realm. The increase in various aspects such as the strength of the physical body, the purity of the Yuan Qi, and the understanding of martial arts and martial skills can all enhance strength For example, compared with a few days ago your physical quality has improved a lot, and your strength must have increased.”

Yang Kai was stunned and thought for a long time before saying, “Well, what you said is right. It’s my thinking that is too narrow.”

The Earth Demon didn’t dare to take credit and said, “The young master is young and just didn’t think of this aspect.”

Looking at the three remaining Blood Coagulation Beads on the boulder, Yang Kai didn’t hesitate any longer and pointed his finger at one of them.

This Blood Coagulation Bead seemed to have spirituality. The moment it was touched, it directly drilled into Yang Kai’s body.

The energy that burst out in the body was even more violent than before. Yang Kai couldn’t help but grunt and quickly closed his eyes to meditate.

In the next half a month, Yang Kai didn’t do anything. He just refined the energy of the three Blood Coagulation Beads. Not only that, but even the blood energy in the boulder was completely absorbed by Yang Kai.

The whole person’s blood and Qi became more than twice as vigorous as half a month ago. Both his speed and the force of his punches had significantly improved.

Moreover, his strength also had a breakthrough and he was promoted to the third layer of the pneumatic Jing (Qi Movement Realm).

Half a month later, under the impatient urging of the Earth Demon, Yang Kai reached out and moved that huge stone. Without using Yuan Qi, he easily lifted the stone that weighed at least three thousand catties only by relying on his own brute force.

Under the stone, there was a cool cave. Inside the cave, a mass of thick black qi was filled. Obviously, it was the evil demon qi remaining here and also the root cause that affected the right peninsula of Yunxia.

As soon as it saw the light of day again, this mass of evil demon qi directly rushed towards Yang Kai.

The Earth Demon sneered strangely： “Little thing, you actually use the trick that this old man has played with. You really don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth！”

Obviously, what the Earth Demon said was about his first embarrassing meeting with Yang Kai. At that time, the Earth Demon also wanted to seize Yang Kai’s physical body. However, after calculating everything, he was instead subdued by Yang Kai.

While speaking, he had already turned into a mass of black qi and welcomed it.

The two masses of black qi merged into one and immediately fought inside the cave, churning continuously. Yang Kai simply couldn’t see what was going on. He didn’t know who won and who lost. However, after thinking about it, the Earth Demon was at least an old devil. His tone was very big before. There should be no problem.

After waiting for a long time, Yang Kai said： “The soul of this devil is also like yours, still existing between heaven and earth？”

The somewhat embarrassed voice of the Earth Demon came over： “Back… Young Master, his soul has long… collapsed and dissipated. Now there is only… a trace of remaining thoughts！”

Yang Kai furrowed his brows and said, “Oh… What’s wrong with you？”

“Cough cough…” The Earth Demon suddenly felt embarrassed and said, “Please, Young Master… give this old servant a hand. This old servant is somewhat… unable to defeat him！”

Yang Kai’s expression immediately became interesting. He kept a straight face and suppressed his laughter, saying, “Isn’t this just a little devil？ How could you not be able to defeat him？”

Sensing Yang Kai’s teasing intention, the Earth Demon almost cried and said, “Yes, yes, yes, it’s a little devil indeed, but this old servant died earlier than him！ Being sealed in the Inheritance Cave Heaven, this old servant’s soul is almost broken. Young Master, if you don’t help anymore, this old servant is afraid of being swallowed by him.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Kai realized that the matter was quite serious and said seriously, “How to help？”

“The remaining thought of this brat who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth wants to occupy your physical body. You just need to let it in a little, just like last time in the Inheritance Cave Heaven.”

This was rather simple. Yang Kai directly stretched out his hand and reached into the cave.

In an instant, a cool breath rushed into his body along his arm. Yang Kai chuckled and wasn’t worried.

Sure enough, under the operation of the True Yang Art, this cool breath was refined and burned. Faintly, one could hear waves of miserable howls In the end only a little essence was left and was accommodated into the Proud Bone Golden Body.

With Yang Kai’s great help, the Earth Demon finally leveled the disadvantage. After an hour, he even gained the upper hand.

“That’s enough, young master. You just watch from the side and see how this old servant swallows this little thing！” The Earth Demon was afraid that Yang Kai would snatch too much of the demonic qi and quickly spoke up.

In his heart, he was also constantly muttering, thinking that this young master could absorb any kind of energy. Didn’t he cultivate a yang-attribute cultivation method? It was really strange.

Hearing what he said, Yang Kai also withdrew the big hand that had been inserted into the cave and no longer paid attention to the matter of the Earth Demon. He found a herbal medicine from the medicine basket and put it in his mouth to chew.

Yang Kai recognized all these picked herbal medicines and none of them were toxic. These things were best taken out and refined into pills so that the medicinal effects could be maximally exerted.

But Yang Kai was now trapped and there was no chance to refine the herbal medicines into pills. Although taking them directly was a bit of a waste, there was no time to worry about many things at present.

The battle between the Earth Demon and that mass of black qi lasted for a whole day until the two masses of black qi were truly merged into one before it finally ended.

In this battle, the Earth Demon’s strength increased a lot.

The voice of the Earth Demon also rang out： “Thank you, young master. This old servant has lived up to expectations.”

Yang Kai couldn’t help but cough lightly.

The Earth Demon was embarrassed： “I will first go into seclusion for a few days.”

After saying that, he quickly fled into Yang Kai’s body.
