Chapter 736
byAlthough with Yang Kai’s current strength, he didn’t put the people who came to this ancient ruin this time in his eyes. With the Soul Devouring Insect in hand, those below the Saint Realm were simply no match for him.
But before, because he had to rely on the strength of this group of people to inquire about the situation in this ancient ruin, he had been hiding himself and following behind them, acting together with them.
Now that the situation was almost understood, Yang Kai planned to break away from this group of people and act on his own.
He was very curious about the source that emitted the Yang Attribute energy and wanted to go over and check what was there.
And now, it was an opportunity!
Yang Kai felt that with Hai Wangu’s character, he should not care about his life or death.
Who would have thought that upon hearing him say this, Hai Wangu actually slowly shook his head: “This won’t do, how can we leave you alone here.”
It seemed that because of Yang Kai’s performance earlier, he was somewhat concerned about him. With a look of concern on his face, he ordered a martial artist of the Hai family, “Fourth, you stay and take care of him. Catch up when his injury stabilizes.”
The martial artist who was ordered nodded quickly and stood beside Yang Kai, assuming a posture of protection.
Yang Kai could only smile bitterly and said, “Then thank you, senior, for your kindness.”
Hai Wangu nodded slightly: “En, heal your injury as soon as possible and then catch up with the fourth. We will take a short rest ahead and wait for you.”
As he spoke, he led the others to continue moving forward.
Yang Kai had no choice but to pretend to be circulating his cultivation. The martial artist called Fourth also remained silent and stood not far from Yang Kai, like a wooden stake.
After about half an hour, Yang Kai stood up again.
“How is it?” Fourth asked hurriedly.
“It should be no serious problem.”
“Then let’s catch up.” Fourth said in a deep voice, with a look of urgency on his face.
Following him, they quickly rushed forward. Along the traces left by Hai Wangu along the way, in just the time it took to burn a stick of incense, the two caught up with the large team.
But when Yang Kai saw the situation in the team clearly, his expression couldn’t help but freeze.
Originally, there was a team of about twenty people. At this moment there were actually six or seven people missing. And the remaining people also had a look of lingering fear on their faces.
During the time when he pretended to be healing, they clearly encountered some kind of danger, and the fate of the six or seven missing people could be guessed at a glance.
This ancient ruins. It is indeed not a safe place!
A group of people were resting. When they saw Yang Kai and the warrior called the fourth return to the team Hai Wangu just nodded slightly, with an ugly complexion, and didn’t say much.
“What happened just now?” The fourth walked to the side of a Hai family warrior and asked in a low voice.
The other person still had a look of horror on his face and explained in a low voice: “There seem to be many inexplicable restrictions here. One of them was accidentally triggered, and several people died!”
The fourth’s complexion changed drastically, and he didn’t dare to ask more.
While speaking, a sharp long whistle suddenly came from a distance.
Hai Wangu, who was sitting cross-legged on the spot, quickly opened his eyes, looked in that direction suspiciously, and muttered softly: “The people from the Cheng family?”
Saying this, he stood up in a hurry and waved his hand: “Everyone, please follow me. There seems to be some movement over there!”
About five miles away from the place where Hai Wangu and the others were resting, a large group of people gathered here. They were all warriors who had come one after another after hearing the long whistle coming from here.
These warriors, led by the powerhouses of the seven-family alliance, advanced here wave after wave.
After arriving here, looking at the scene in front of them, everyone was extremely shocked and excited.
In front of that, there is a huge transparent light sphere, emitting earth-shattering energy fluctuations. No one knows what kind of material this transparent light sphere is made of, but judging from the energy fluctuations it emits, it must be a secret treasure of a not low grade.
And it is intact!
However, at this moment, in front of everyone. There is an invisible barrier that blocks the way of all people, making any warrior who wants to approach that light sphere can only stop and be greedy.
One warrior after another went to try, but all were pushed out by a soft force and couldn’t get close to the area within a radius of fifty zhang of that light sphere at all.
When Hai Wangu led Yang Kai and others here. The scene here was lively, with at least dozens of people gathered.
Looking at that light sphere, Yang Kai’s heart also moved, and he paid attention secretly.
A familiar breath came from the crowd. Looking along that breath, Yang Kai couldn’t help but roll his eyes.
Over there, the Holy Maiden of the Jiutian Holy Land was pursing her lips and smiling at him, with a strange expression on her face.
Yang Kai looked away and pretended not to see.
This woman seems to have some skills. Along the way, there is no dust on her body, and she is calm and composed. Moreover, there is an extremely excited light in those beautiful eyes, and she looks particularly happy. It seems that this underwater adventure has made her enjoy the excitement and pleasure that she never thought of before.
Silly girl! Yang Kai thought to himself.
“Brother Cheng, what’s going on?” Hai Wangu stepped forward and came to an old man in the Transcendent Two-layer Realm to ask.
Just now, that whistling sound was transmitted by this person. The seven-family alliance has been entrenched on the islands in this area for a long time, and they have special means of communication with each other. So as soon as he heard the other party’s whistling sound, Hai Wangu knew that he was assembling helpers.
There were many people who had the same question as Hai Wangu. One by one, the Transcendent Realm cultivators gathered beside the old man surnamed Cheng and asked in a deep voice.
“Wait until everyone is here, and then I will explain to you.” The old man surnamed Cheng said.
Everyone stopped asking and waited quietly.
As time passed, teams kept joining in. Youdaoplaceholder1, they were all people who were exploring and treasure hunting in the vicinity.
The number of people was getting more and more, and there were already more than a hundred people gathered here.
After waiting for a while, and seeing that no one else came, the old man surnamed Cheng said, “That’s it. Probably no one else will come.”
“Brother Cheng, can you explain what you called us here for?”
“Of course it’s for that secret treasure!” The old man surnamed Cheng smiled slightly and pointed to the light ball not far away. “The power of this secret treasure is unpredictable, and I don’t know what kind of effect it has. But when we found this place, we were blocked by an invisible barrier. This point, I think you all saw clearly just now. With the strength of my Cheng family’s team alone, we can’t break that barrier. So I want to beg you all to work together and break through this difficulty in front of us!”
Hai Wangu’s brows furrowed slightly, and he chuckled: “Brother Cheng, there’s no problem with working together, but there’s only one secret treasure. If we break through this barrier in front of us, then who will the secret treasure belong to in the end?”
“Everything can be discussed!” The old man with the surname Cheng didn’t answer directly. Instead, he pointed to the rear of the light sphere and said: “Behind that secret treasure is a palace. If my guess is correct, that should be a very important place in this ancient sect. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be guarded by such a secret treasure. As long as we break through this barrier in front of us and enter inside, are we still afraid that we won’t be able to find good things inside? Maybe there are more and better secret treasures in there.”
“This is just your guess after all!” Hai Wangu frowned and said.
However, it does have the value of a try! Someone agreed with the old man with the surname Cheng’s statement.
The many powerhouses quickly discussed it, and in a short while, they reached a consensus.
Although Hai Wangu had raised doubts before, it was undeniable that the secret treasure in front of him was also extremely attractive to him.
After reaching a consensus, everyone quickly started to make arrangements.
Each of their Transcendent Realm experts brought a team of varying numbers of people, with as few as ten and as many as twenty.
Hai Wangu returned to Yang Kai and the others and repeated the decision just made.
“Everyone, we need to contribute our strength to see if we can break through this barrier in front of us. If we can break it, not only can we obtain that mysterious secret treasure, but we can also search in the hall behind. There are many benefits, so please do your best.”
“Elder Hai, don’t worry. We will definitely do our best and live up to your trust!” Immediately, someone excitedly shouted.
Elder Hai nodded in satisfaction.
A moment later, everything was arranged properly.
More than a hundred people all stood not far from the invisible barrier, holding their breaths and preparing secretly.
The old man with the surname Cheng stepped forward and said loudly, “Later, please listen to my order to take action. The defense of this barrier is a bit strange. It seems that we must use the greatest strength to break it in an instant. Otherwise, no matter how we attack, it will remain intact.”
Everyone nodded one after another.
The old man with the surname Cheng swept around and slowly raised a hand, with a solemn expression. Everyone present condensed their true essence and was ready to take action at any time.
Suddenly, the old man with the surname Cheng’s big hand suddenly waved down.
At the moment he waved his hand, the power of colorful martial skills and secret treasures burst out with a bang and hit forward together.
Rumble…
The relics seemed to shake.
Among the warriors present, although the number of Transcendent Realm warriors was not large, there were less than ten of them, and the rest were all warriors above the seventh level of the Divine Wanderer Realm. However, the number of people was not small. The power burst at this moment came together was also earth-shattering and jaw dropping.
Countless energies bombarded the invisible barrier, and layer upon layer of visible ripples spread out in mid-air, like a hundred or so stones dropped on a calm lake, setting off circles of halos.
The invisible barrier seemed extremely elastic Hit by these attacks, it indented inward a lot but was not damaged.
When everything calmed down, everyone’s complexion looked is ugly.
Just now, that attack still failed to break the barrier in front of them.
The old man surnamed Cheng clapped his hands, attracting everyone’s attention, and then shouted loudly: “One more time, please don’t hold back. Breaking this barrier earlier is beneficial to everyone. You don’t want to waste time here, do you?”
He also saw that although the power of the attack just now was not bad, most people did not exert their full strength. Youdaoplaceholder0 underestimating the defense strength of this barrier.
Hearing what he said, those warriors who had just now did not dare to have any more lucky thoughts and just waited to exert their full strength when they made a move next time.
After another round of preparations, the old man with the surname Cheng raised a hand again, and his eyes swept around majestically. All those who were stared at by him condensed all their true essence one by one.
