Chapter 989

On the suspended Continent, the old man left gracefully leaving Zi Xing and a group of people from the Sword League standing there, at a loss.

Especially the people from the Sword League, each one of them was like having lost their parents, with extremely sad and indignant expressions. The pretty face of the beautiful woman Yue Xi was even distorted. Her beautiful eyes stared at the direction where the old man left, angry but not daring to speak.

Lu Guichen glanced at her and laughed loudly, saying, “Well, now everyone has been scrambling around, but in the end, it’s all for someone else’s benefit. It’s been a waste of effort.”

“How dare you say that！” Yue Xi suddenly turned her head and glared at him, gnashing her silver teeth tightly. “If it weren’t for your people from Purple Star chasing after my two disciples, they would have already brought the Star Gate Token back to Sword Star. They wouldn’t have barged into the Chaotic Abyss, and we wouldn’t have ended up here, having to act according to someone else’s face. All this trouble was caused by you！”

Lv Guichen’s face turned cold. “That’s not right. The place where your two disciples found the Star Gate Token was on a continent of my Purple Star. Strictly speaking, it’s a thing of my Purple Star. I haven’t even held you accountable for the crime of theft, yet you’re blaming us instead？”

Lv Guichen, you remember this. If one day I can get out of here, I will make you suffer a fate worse than death! Yue Xi shouted hatefully, attributing the misfortune of the Star Gate Token being snatched to Purple Star.

“Let’s see if you can get out first.” Lv Guichen sneered and didn’t care about her threat. He waved to the martial artists of Purple Star and said, Come here, count the things inside and see how many belong to us. Don’t let others steal the things again.

Dozens of martial artists from Purple Star immediately rushed towards the mountain of supplies piled up there.

Yue Xi’s delicate body trembled slightly, and she asked the people of Sword League to also start counting.

More than a hundred people immediately crowded together and began to search for the things that belonged to them.

“The Star Gate Order, it’s actually the Star Gate Order. My God, it’s actually the Star Gate Order！” Shen Tu kept shouting, his expression fanatical, as if he was a little too excited to control himself.

Ever since the old man took away the Star Gate Order, Shen Tu had been excited and had not calmed down until now.

Yang Kai sat beside him without saying a word. He didn’t speak until Shen Tu stopped chattering and asked, “What is that thing? Why does it seem like everyone wants it?”

“Of course they want it!” Shen Tu drank in a low voice. “That’s the Star Gate Order!” When the Star Gate Order appears, the star fields will submit. That’s a big killing weapon. If I could get that thing…”

He muttered to himself, his eyes shining with excitement, like a hungry wolf foraging in the snow, imagining all kinds of beautiful things after he got the Star Gate Order.

“I understand. No wonder these people from Purple Star. They don’t hesitate to break into the Chaos Abyss to chase after the Sword League. It turns out it’s for the Star Gate Order. Ha, that’s right. A single Star Gate Order is indeed enough to attract them to take risks.” Shen Tu was lost in thought. “Unfortunately, unfortunately, in the end, it was actually taken away by that old monster. Alas, once the thing gets into his hands, I’m afraid it will never be taken back.”

He looked like he was sighing with regret. As if that Star Gate Order belonged to him.

Yang Kai was about to ask him in detail about the Star Gate Token when he suddenly noticed that the beautiful woman named Yue Xi was walking quickly towards them. He couldn’t help but frown and become secretly alert.

Yang Kai didn’t trust this woman.

As if because of the treatment she had received just now, Yue Xi’s face didn’t look good at the moment.

She walked straight up to Yang Kai, pursed her bright red lips, and seemed hesitant to speak.

“Is there something？” Yang Kai frowned.

“Can you return that spatial ring to me？ You also saw what happened just now. That old senior took away all our spatial rings. We don’t have any treasures to store things now, and it’s very inconvenient.” Yue Xi said somewhat awkwardly.

Her attitude towards Yang Kai yesterday wasn’t very good. And now she wanted to take back what she had given away, so her expression was a little unnatural.

If it wasn’t a last resort, she wouldn’t have done this.

After speaking, she gazed quietly at Yang Kai, waiting for his reply.

“If I remember correctly, this ring was given to me by you yesterday and has already become my thing.” Yang Kai’s expression was strange.

“Yes.” Yue Xi nodded. “But we need this ring now, so I want to take it back. Don’t worry. As long as we leave here, I’ll give you more rewards and definitely make you satisfied. How about it？”

“I can’t refuse, right？” Yang Kai smiled faintly.

“You can refuse.” Yue Xi’s expression was cold. “And as long as we’re still here, if you refuse, I won’t do anything to you.”

“That means that after we leave here in the future, you will do something to me？” Yang Kai savored the meaning in her words.

Yue Xi didn’t admit it nor deny it, but only said： “I can help you unlock the restriction in your body now, allowing you to restore your own strength. This way, it will also be more convenient for you to move around.”

“There’s no need.” Yang Kai shook his head. After what happened yesterday, he simply couldn’t let Yue Xi use her power on him again.

As he spoke like this, with a thought of his divine sense, he poured out the one thousand Saint Crystals in the ring, took off the ring on his hand and threw it towards Yue Xi： “I just want to tell you that the recovery items I gave to He Zao and He Miao before were not for your reward. However, I’ll keep these one thousand Saint Crystals. Let’s call it even, and neither of us owes the other anything.”

Yue Xi caught the ring in her hand, and her expression became strange. She seemed a little embarrassed, and gently opened her vermilion lips to say： “Without my help, no one here can unlock the restriction imposed by Lv Guichen.”

“Don’t bother！”

Yue Xi’s pretty face changed slightly, and she snorted coldly： “Ungrateful！”

She didn’t expect that her good intentions would actually be rejected by Yang Kai. In her opinion, this young man should be grateful. After all, this was an unknown continent, and no one would want to be unable to use their own strength.

This made her a little angry and ashamed, feeling that her warm face had been stuck to a cold buttocks.

In the past, with her identity and status, how could she directly talk to a small role like Yang Kai？

But now that she has fallen into misfortune here, she has to condescend.

No longer willing to waste more words with Yang Kai, she turned and left with that spatial ring.

“Brother, do you have a feud with that woman？” After Yue Xi left, Shen Tu quietly asked, “How did you provoke her？”

“I didn’t provoke her, it’s just that she is too suspicious.” Yang Kai shook his head and didn’t care either.

“But what she said is right. If there is no help from her here, you simply can’t untie Lu Guichen’s restriction. Even if I recover, I can’t help you much.” Shen Tu said helplessly.

“I’ll figure out a way by myself.”

“Forget it, let’s not talk about this. It’s annoying. How should we deal with these one thousand crystals？ It’s not very good to just leave them here like this, right？”

“I have this.” Yang Kai said, and suddenly some exquisite small bags appeared in his hand. He casually threw two to Shen Tu and then picked up one himself and started filling the bag with saint crystals.

Those fist-sized, crystal-clear saint crystals were put into the bag and disappeared as if they had been swallowed making Shen Tu dumbfounded. He couldn’t help but ask, “What is this thing? How does it also have the function of storage?”

“Qiankun bag, a storage treasure used on our continent.” Yang Kai casually explained. These qiankun bags were all obtained by him before, either by confiscating spoils of war or through adventures. He had placed them in the Demon God’s Secret Code and hadn’t used them much. This time, they were finally put to use.

The mysterious old man was eyeing the ethereal crystal. Yang Kai doesn’t want to expose the secret of his Demon God’s Secret Code. With a single carelessness, the Demon God’s Secret Code might be snatched away by him.

At present, he could only use the qiankun bag to deceive others.

Shen Tu marveled, imitating Yang Kai’s actions and stuffing the holy crystals into the qiankun bag while laughing and saying, “Not bad. Your low-level continent can actually develop such a treasure. It seems there are still some strengths. It’s just that the space is a bit small.”

He seemed very interested in the qiankun bag. After filling the two qiankun bags, he stuffed them into his arms and said brazenly, “These crystals belong to me. I’ll return them to you later.”

“Hmm.” Yang Kai nodded indifferently.

The martial artists of the Purple Star and the Sword League were still counting and allocating the mountain-like supplies. Shen Tu took out the holy crystals from the qiankun bag and began to restore himself.

Yang Kai sat cross-legged beside him, trying to mobilize the power in his body. However, all his meridians were bound and blocked, and the power couldn’t flow at all, making him feel extremely helpless.

Youdaoplaceholder0, he could only immerse his mind and retreat into the sea of consciousness with his spiritual soul body.

He planned to devour those Soul Energies first.

Dozens of Soul Energies of various sizes were suspended above the Sea of Consciousness. These were all the souls of martial artists who had died near Yang Kai during the recent disaster.

Basically, they were all Saint Realm experts, and there was also the Soul Energy of a Saint King Realm powerhouse.

Yang Kai observed for a while, then gathered them together with great anticipation and began to mobilize the power of the World-Destroying Demon Eye.

Dazzling golden light shone, which was the Soul-Destroying Golden Light that could make anyone’s soul fly away and scatter. It was a divine ability cultivated by the Great Demon God.

A hissing sound rang out. Those Soul Energies were like being thrown into boiling water, and wisps of pitch-black things like mist emerged from them and were purified.

These were all the memories and life experiences of those deceased.

Yang Kai could not absorb these, nor did he dare to. Otherwise, it might make his thinking become chaotic and he wouldn’t even know who he was.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of Soul Energies were basically purified completely. What was left were the unique insights of those martial artists into the Heavenly Dao and martial arts.

Among them, one group of energy seemed a bit is different. Under the golden light of the World-Destroying Demon Eye, it actually persisted for a while before being purified.

That was the Soul Energy of a Saint King Realm expert.

Yang Kai couldn’t help but be moved！

Looking carefully, the nutrients carried in this group of energy seemed to be much richer than the others, which made Yang Kai overjoyed.

Not wasting any time, he immediately began to devour and refine, absorbing these pure divine soul energies into his sea of consciousness and turning them into his own powerful capital.

Time passed bit by bit, and I don’t know how long it had been. Dozens of groups of energy were almost completely refined by Yang Kai.

He discovered some problems.

The insights of these martial artists into the Heavenly Dao and martial arts were much deeper and purer than those of the martial artists on the Tongxuan Continent. Their application of power and understanding of the laws were also far beyond what the martial artists on the Tongxuan Continent could compare.

This also meant that the combat power of these martial artists was a notch stronger than that of the martial artists of the same level on the Tongxuan Continent because they had a deeper understanding of the application of power.
