Chapter 468
by“Little Young Master！” The concerned voice of Shadow Nine came from behind.
“It’s okay！” Yang Kai slowly shook his head, and a deep sense of powerlessness couldn’t help but surge on his face.
In the eyes of Yang Wei and Meng Shanyi, he had looked extremely glorious just now, using the power of one person and one secret treasure to withstand the fierce attacks of more than a dozen Divine Movement Realm experts. In fact, the bitterness within it could only be known by Yang Kai himself.
Even the best Mysterious Grade secret treasure couldn’t allow a True Yuan Realm martial artist to unleash such a powerful force.
Secret treasures and martial skills were essentially the same, both things that added icing on the cake. The foundation of a martial artist was still the strength of their own power.
The Bone Shield was indeed extraordinary. With it, even Dong Qinghan and the others didn’t have to worry about their safety when facing experts below the fifth level of the Divine Movement Realm.
However, using this thing consumed True Yuan too much.
Just now, in that instant, Yang Kai had poured more than a dozen drops of the True Yuan stored in the Yang Liquid into the Bone Shield, which was why the Bone Shield was able to devour the attacks of those experts.
If other martial artists of the same level were to use it, even if they expended all their True Yuan, they wouldn’t be able to block a single strike from an expert at the eighth level of the Divine Movement Realm.
The defensive power and devouring limit of the Bone Shield are completely related to the amount of True Yuan that the martial artist instills into it.
The more True Yuan instilled into the Bone Shield, the more attacks it can devour, and the stronger its defensive power will be.
Such a huge consumption also makes Yang Kai feel a little distressed. However, at least he managed to persuade Yang Wei, so it’s not a total loss.
His own strength is still a bit low. If he reaches the Divine Movement Realm, the consumption required in that situation just now would be much less.
Yang Kai can’t wait to improve his strength. His eyes gradually become firm, and an impulse and desire to immediately go back and seclude himself for cultivation well up in his heart, burning like a raging fire.
The subtle change in his expression didn’t escape Ying Jiu’s observation. This blood servant who exists like a shadow seems to have sensed Yang Kai’s thoughts in his heart, and can’t help but have a strange expression.
It seems that the young master is the kind of person who becomes more courageous the more he is frustrated.
Generally speaking, after seeing the means displayed by powerful martial artists, an ordinary martial artist will surely leave some shadows in his heart. At that time, not to mention fighting, even in cultivation, there may be some inevitable distractions and inner demons. Affected by that shadow, he will never be able to get rid of it in his lifetime.
But the young master has a firm and resolute heart, and his pursuit of martial arts is as solid as a rock. Not only is he not affected, but instead, he has inspired an overwhelming fighting spirit. With such a mindset, as long as his opportunity and talent keep up he will surely achieve great things in the future.
Thinking like this, Ying Jiu casually asked, “Shall we go back now？”
He guessed in his heart that Qiu Yimeng might not be able to rest well tonight. During the day, she tried her best to stop Yang Kai from acting alone but was powerless. Now she must be worried about Yang Kai, right？
Going back earlier would also make Miss Qiu feel relieved.
Qiu Yimeng has also been extremely busy during this period, working hard without complaint. Although Ying Jiu has never mentioned it in front of Yang Kai, he has seen it in his eyes. Naturally, he couldn’t bear to let a young lady from a great family have a sleepless night alone.
“There is still one more place to go.” A hint of helplessness emerged on Yang Kai’s face as he took a step forward.
Ying Jiu nodded slightly and said nothing, following behind Yang Kai.
They walked in the Battle City for a long time before the two came to a huge and majestic palace. At the huge gate of the palace, there was no one on duty, and the gate was also tightly closed.
It seemed to be a deserted palace.
But looking up, Ying Jiu was suddenly shocked.
This huge palace was none other than the most sacred place in the center of the Battle City – the Divine Conferred Palace！
The palace where the eight powerhouses of the eight great families in Zhongdu were sitting!
What is the young master doing here？ Ying Jiu was suspicious in his heart.
Looking at the plaque of the God-Sealing Palace, Yang Kai was also extremely helpless. Just now when he left the Yang Wei Residence, a hoarse voice suddenly came from beside his ear, asking him to come to the God-Sealing Palace.
This was a summons from the Supreme Elder of the Yang Family. Yang Kai couldn’t not come！
It seems that his every move. Indeed, it was still under the surveillance of those eight people. Even the slightest small action couldn’t be hidden from their perception.
This kind of feeling made Yang Kai extremely uncomfortable. There was always a taste of being controlled by others.
Feeling unhappy in his heart, his complexion naturally wasn’t very good either.
When he walked to the front of the palace gate, before Yang Kai could even report his name, the tightly closed door slowly opened.
Yang Kai couldn’t help but roll his eyes. He led Ying Jiu and stepped in. After the two of them walked in, the door slowly closed. Throughout the whole process, not a single figure was seen, and Yang Kai didn’t even feel a trace of energy fluctuation.
His heart couldn’t help but have a new understanding of the methods of the experts above the Divine Movement Realm.
The interior of the God-Sealing Palace was paved with a big red blanket, and the surrounding walls were inlaid with glittering gems. Even in the darkness of night, this great hall was illuminated as brightly as day, shining like the sun.
Stone pillars stood, and on the stone pillars, many patterns of birds and beasts were carved, vivid and lifelike.
But when Yang Kai looked at those precious stones and patterns, his expression couldn’t help but be a little trance-like. He felt vaguely that these things were not arranged randomly but there was some mysterious mystery hidden within them.
When he really went to look, however, he found nothing.
He couldn’t help but shake his head and continued to move forward.
However, it has to be said that the Heaven and Earth Energy in this Sealing God Palace is simple and natural. Obviously, it is just a palace, but being in it feels as if one is in the midst of thousands of mountains. Sometimes, one can hear the sounds of birds chirping and insects singing, and even the tinkling sound of a small bridge over a flowing stream and the gurgling sound of a mountain spring.
Everywhere exudes a mysterious atmosphere！
Unlike Yang Kai’s curious observation, Ying Jiu has seemed a little restraint since entering here. His body is tense and his expression is even more meticulous.
There is no one to guide or lead the way, but Yang Kai still has a feeling that in the dark, there is a voice telling him which way to go.
His heart suddenly became solemn.
After turning left and right for a long time, suddenly a bright light appeared in front. This bright light appeared extremely abruptly, without any sign.
By the time Yang Kai and Ying Jiu reacted they suddenly discovered that they had already arrived at the destination.
This was a hall within the Deity-Conferring Palace. On a circular platform in front, there were eight white-haired old men, all with an otherworldly and composed air, and an immortal-like bearing. They were sitting at the eight corners, about a dozen zhang apart from each other. And in the exact center of them, there was an even larger luminous sphere, suspended in mid-air.
The arrival of Yang Kai and Ying Jiu did not startle these eight people. The eight of them were pinching mysterious and profound incantation gestures, sometimes frowning in thought, sometimes smiling slightly, and sending out streams of energy into the luminous sphere in the center.
After these energies were injected, that luminous sphere was also undergoing some extremely subtle changes that were hard to put into words.
Both Yang Kai and Ying Jiu unconsciously held their breath and concentrated their gaze on that luminous sphere, trying to understand the profound meaning hidden in the movements of these eight people.
Time passed in a hurry.
I don’t know how long it had been, but suddenly Yang Kai felt a blur in front of his eyes. When he came back to his senses, he found that the position he was in had changed. Originally, he was at a distance from the circular platform, observing from afar, but now he was standing on a patch of lush green grass, with blue sky and white clouds above his head, and the fragrance of flowers and the chirping of birds in his nose and mouth.
In the sky, people were engaged in a great battle, and the intense energy fluctuations came, almost making Yang Kai unable to stand firmly on his feet.
Looking up, Yang Kai’s breathing stalled.
The people fighting in the sky are actually the eight Divine Movement Realm masters who were sitting cross-legged on the round platform. The moves they are using are impossible to trace. They can hardly be described as moves. Instead, they are launched at will, without rules or trajectories. They are picked up casually, but they are like the horns of an antelope hanging on a tree, secretly conforming to the laws of nature.
The eight people are currently in a melee. They are all enemies of each other, and the fight is indistinguishable. The sky is collapsing and the earth is cracking. One huge burst of light after another is constantly erupting in the air, and the strong wind generated has bent the grass.
“Huh?” Someone exclaimed in surprise, exited the battle circle, and looked down. He found that Yang Kai was standing there, with a confused and thoughtful expression on his face, and was suddenly extremely surprised.
His actions also attracted the attention of others. When they discovered that there was an additional Yang Kai in this small world, they all stopped and revealed strange expressions.
“Brother Yang, is this your junior？” A slightly fat old man asked a question.
Yang Liting nodded slightly and looked at Yang Kai with interest.
“Yang Kai pays his respects to the eight seniors!” Yang Kai also quickly converged his expression and salutation.
“Not bad. He was actually able to break into our consciousness. Brother Yang, your Yang family has a successor.” Another slightly shorter old man laughed loudly.
Even though these people had long since withdrawn from the mundane world and had a weak state of mind, they couldn’t help but reveal envious expressions at this moment, as if Yang Kai’s intrusion here had made them.
Yang Liting didn’t say anything either, nor did he make any move. Yang Kai only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and then he appeared in front of himself.
Paying respects to the Supreme Elder.
Well, your name is Yang Kai, right? Yang Liting, with his hands behind his back, had a straight and upright body. Although his hair was completely white he had a youthful complexion. He nodded faintly.”
That’s right.” Yang Kai nodded. He was neither humble nor overbearing. This Yang Liting in front of him was one of the five Divine Movement Realm experts in the Yang Family. If one really calculated, it was unknown which generation of ancestor he was. At the very least, he was over two hundred years old.”
There were several generations in between, and coupled with the fact that the Yang Family itself had a thin affection so Yang Kai didn’t have the feeling of intimacy when seeing his relatives at this moment.
Do you know why I called you here？” Yang Liting seemed to deliberately test Yang Kai and asked again.”
I guessed some.” Yang Kai smiled slightly.”
Since the beginning of the succession battle until now, quite some time had passed. Yang Liting didn’t summon him earlier or later, but at this time. Yang Kai could naturally guess the reason.
It was nothing more than because the Earth Demon had appeared in the Battle City, and the demonic energy on his body had alerted these eight Divine Movement Realm experts.
The eight of them don’t interfere in the matters of the battle for the throne and just stay here to protect the younger generation of martial artists from being taken advantage of by the Cangyun Evil Land. Suddenly, a demon with such profound strength appears, and it’s hard for them not to pay attention.
“Let me ask you, where does that person come from？” Yang Liting didn’t beat around the bush and asked straightforwardly. When asking this question, his eyes were deep, as if he wanted to see into the depths of Yang Kai’s soul.
