Chapter 1193
byOn this day, Yang Kai came to the front of a canyon. He stopped his figure, looked at the canyon in the front of him and his brows furrowed tightly.
This canyon was only two or three zhang wide, and on both sides were towering mountains that were ten thousand ren high, as if someone had used great supernatural power to split this mountain in half.
Yang Kai stood there and hesitated for a full stick of incense time before finally deciding to rush through the canyon.
Although the canyon looked a bit dangerous, if he had to take a detour, Yang Kai estimated that it would take at least several days of effort. He didn’t want to take a detour, so he could only continue to move forward. Of course, he also had the confidence to deal with certain risks. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have come deep into this kind of place.
In the Flowing Flame Sand Ground where flying was impossible, such terrain was definitely the best choice for setting up an ambush and carrying out a surprise attack. As long as the two entrances and exits of the canyon could be blocked, even if there was a great ability, one would still be trapped and killed inside.
However, the martial artists who entered the Flowing Flame Sand Ground all came for various benefits. Although the matter of killing people and seizing treasures also often occurred, who would be so bored as to set up an ambush in this kind of location?
Yang Kai estimated that apart from himself, probably no one else would take this road, so he boldly and reassuringly stepped into the canyon.
The canyon was very long. Looking from one end to the other, it was at least a dozen miles long. The appearance of such a landform within the Flowing Flame Sand Field was really strange.
For the first few miles, there was no incident. But when Yang Kai had walked a little more than half, from the cracks in the ground, bright fire lights immediately shot up. The fire lights contained extremely astonishing energy fluctuations. As soon as those fire lights appeared, they attacked Yang Kai from both the front and the back. In the wriggling and changing, they turned into fire spirit beasts of various shapes, each fierce and menacing baring their teeth and pouncing and biting towards him.
Yang Kai’s expression was cold. A long sword with churning demonic flames had already appeared in his hand. The purple shield turned into a purple light and suspended ed behind him. He ignored the fire spirit beasts pouncing and biting from behind and only slashed at the fire spirit beasts charging from the front.
Regarding this situation, Yang Kai had long expected it. That was why he had hesitated for a while before entering the valley.
After entering here, indeed no one would come to ambush him, but there were fire spirit beasts. If he didn’t kill all these fire spirit beasts, he couldn’t get out of the canyon.
A dense series of sounds came from the purple shield behind. It was the noise made when those fire spirit beasts were blocked by the purple shield while pouncing and biting. And the magic flame long sword in Yang Kai’s hand extremely smoothly pierced into the eye of a fire spirit beast in the shape of a lion and stirred vigorously. The magic flame surged into the body of this fire spirit beast, immediately causing the red light on its body to a layer of black. The black spreads towards the surroundings of its body at an extremely fast speed. Seeing its originally bright red body turn into a color of black and red intersection, it looked extremely strange.
A seventh-order fire spirit beast, Yang Kai could kill with a full blow, but there were quite a number of fire spirit beasts here. He couldn’t go all out every time and could only use the characteristics of the magic flame to slowly burn their seemingly illusory and real bodies little by little.
The magic flame long sword was pulled out from the head of this lion, regardless of its life or death. Almost without pause it directly chopped on the body of another fire spirit beast that rushed close to him.
The magic flame adhered to its body all at once. The already somewhat solid body quickly burned with black flowers and gradually spread to other positions.
Such terrain is not conducive to Yang Kai’s full display of his means, but it is also very disadvantageous to the Fire Spirit Beasts. Because of the width of only two or three zhang, it results in that at most only five or six of them can have frontal contact with Yang Kai, and all the other Fire Spirit Beasts are blocked behind by their companions.
The strange power of cold and heat alternating, positive and evil coexisting is simply not something that these seventh- and eighth-order Fire Spirit Beasts can resist. One by one, the Fire Spirit Beasts blocking in front of Yang Kai vanished in wailing, and pieces of Fire Crystals of different sizes fell from the sky.
While killing the Fire Spirit Beasts, Yang Kai still had the spare energy to fish for these valuable Fire Crystals. For a while, he made a great profit.
The number of Fire Spirit Beasts existing in the canyon is not small, there are about several hundred of them, but no matter how many there are, they can’t withstand such killing.
These Fire Spirit Beasts are not like those in the valley. There is a Fire Crystal in each of their bodies, so Yang Kai’s efforts are not in vain.
As time goes by, the originally endless Fire Spirit Beasts seem to gradually decrease. And Yang Kai has also advanced about one li forward.
Another Fire Spirit Beast was killed by the sword. Yang Kai took a step forward, while casually swinging a blow to block the attack of another Fire Spirit Beast, and at the same time reaching out to fish for the fallen Fire Crystal.
He has repeated this action countless times and is naturally very skilled.
Who knew that as he took this step, it seemed as if he had stepped into some awesome place. An inexplicable sense of solemnness suddenly came from all directions. Yang Kai even felt that the space around his body had solidified.
This caused the hand he reached out to grab the Fire Crystal Stone to stop in mid-air, unable to move an inch. Even the Demon Flame Longsword he had slashed out was suddenly fixed, and the blade let out a continuous clanging.
Yang Kai’s complexion changed drastically. In his shocked gaze, the Fire Spirit Beast that pounced over opened its bloody mouth wide and bit down on his neck. The sound of the beast’s roar came out, and an extremely hotsmell sprayed out from its mouth, also mixed with a thick Fire Poison.
A pain came from his neck. It should have been bitten through the skin. The Fire Poison that invaded his body made his neck feel like it was on fire, and he also had a dizzy feeling.
Just as he was in a daze, the Fire Spirit Beasts in front all attacked at once. With a single opening of their mouths, one by one Fire Snakes and one by one Fireball-like energy attacks came crashing down on Yang Kai like a storm.
Yang Kai’s face turned iron blue. Although he didn’t know what exactly he had encountered, it was already a bit too late to retreat at this time. In a hurry, he could only fully agitate his Saint Yuan and forcefully break his body free from this solidified space. Immediately, the Demon Flame burst out violently from his body, making him look like a burning Fire Man.
Boom boom boom…
A series of noises came, and the firelight was bright. Several fire spirit beasts that pounced on Yang Kai and bit him whined and flew backward. They were burned clean by the demonic flames in mid-air.
When the firelight disappeared, Yang Kai’s extremely embarrassed figure was revealed. At this moment, his complexion was extremely ugly, and his clothes were torn to pieces On his neck, cheeks, and wrists there were small scars left by the bites of the fire spirit beasts everywhere. In those scars, a little bit of black fire poison was gathering at the wounds, lingering like black air and not dissipating.
However, with a push of Yang Kai’s Saint Yuan, all these fire poisons were forced out, and the wounds also healed quickly under the powerful restorative effect of the golden blood.
Yang Kai concentrated his gaze on the space in front of him, and his expression was more solemn than ever before.
Just taking one step forward almost put him in a situation of eternal damnation. If he had broken free from it a little later, Yang Kai estimated that he would definitely have suffered more serious injuries.
But after taking a step back, everything returned to normal again.
He didn’t have time to consider why the space in front was so strange. He could only continue to cheer up and deal with the fire spirit beasts attacking from both the front and the back.
With something weighing on his mind, Yang Kai’s attacks became much more ruthless. In just one day, he wiped out all the Fire Spirit Beasts originally in the canyon, reaping a full four to five hundred Fire Crystal Stones.
Such a number is quite astonishing. I’m afraid it’s more than the harvest of most forces that stay on the first layer to search for and kill Fire Spirit Beasts.
After all, the number of Fire Spirit Beasts in the first-layer Blazing Heat Zone is not too large, and their levels are not high either, so the value of the Fire Crystal Stones obtained naturally isn’t great.
Standing in place and resting for a while, Yang Kai released his spiritual sense to sense the surroundings. After confirming that there was no potential danger, he then took a step forward.
The same experience as the previous day instantly appeared. When this step was taken, Yang Kai couldn’t help but grunt, and his tall and straight body suddenly shrank, as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him, making it unbearable.
Not only that, this area of space was extremely solid and viscous, clearly different from the surrounding space. Yang Kai had cultivated the power of space. Before, when confronting the Fire Spirit Beasts, he didn’t have the time to carefully sense it. Now, after examining it, he immediately understood the strangeness of this area of space.
He didn’t know what change had occurred here nor did he know for what reason this area of space had such a change. But in this canyon, right in front of him, there was a strange space within a range of more than ten zhang.
If walking before was like swimming freely in water, then entering this space is as if the water for swimming suddenly turned into ice.
That solidified spatial power can firmly bind anyone here and make them unable to move. If it weren’t for Yang Kai’s proficiency in spatial power, he would definitely not be able to discover this.
This is not achieved by any restriction or formation, but by the power of space.
Yang Kai found that even taking a breath here is extremely difficult. The air is solidified and must be inhaled into the lungs with great effort.
But why is the Fire Spirit Beast not suppressed by this space？ Instead, it can move freely in it.
Yang Kai doesn’t quite understand.
The slightly bent body due to being pressed straightened with great difficulty. Beads of sweat oozed out on Yang Kai’s forehead, and all the flesh and blood on his body was wriggling and convulsing. He burst out every ounce of strength in his whole body, but still couldn’t take a step and couldn’t walk out even one step.
The sweat on the forehead fell off and didn’t fall downward at all. Instead, as soon as it left Yang Kai’s body, it was squeezed into powder by the solidified spatial power and dissipated in this space.
The Saint Yuan was surging more and more violently, but Yang Kai was horrified to find that no matter how he urged the Saint Yuan the magic flame that should have burned outside his body was always suppressed in the meridians and couldn’t move.
It is impossible to walk here by relying on the Saint Yuan.
A flash of refined light flashed in Yang Kai’s eyes. He stopped urging his Saint Yuan and instead condensed spatial power.
The enormous pressure squeezing around his body suddenly eased a little. Although he still couldn’t return to normal, it was no problem to move his hands and feet extremely slowly.
Sure enough, it’s still necessary to prescribe the right medicine. This space has clearly undergone some mutations. Only by using spatial power can it be dealt with.
Moreover, as soon as he used spatial power, Yang Kai suddenly discovered that this strange space actually had an extremely magical resonance with himself. A wonderful realization welled up in his heart, allowing Yang Kai’s understanding of spatial power to reach a higher level.
This made him overjoyed.
