Chapter 1942
byYang Kai was in a great mood for accidentally obtaining such a strange treasure as the ice flower.
This thing was indeed useless to him, but it could be exchanged for a large amount of cultivation resources, especially the source crystals that he was currently in short supply of.
If he could find a good auction house and take the three ice fruits there for auction, Yang Kai estimated that he definitely wouldn’t have to worry about source crystals for a short time.
The bottom of the cliff was not a place to stay for a long time, so after getting the ice flower, Yang Kai was ready to evacuate.
But at this moment, a sharp and strange hissing suddenly rang out beside his ear. Immediately after, a snow-white light like a ribbon suddenly shot out from not far away, roaring like thunder and with a fierce and imposing momentum.
Yang Kai’s eyes shrank, and a great sense of crisis rose in his heart. He instantly dodge from the original place.
Chi…
The snow-white light hit the empty space, plowing a huge gully in the ground. The ice and rocks flew, and the momentum was terrifying.
“Who!” ” Yang Kai subconsciously thought that someone was hiding at the bottom of this ice cliff and sneaking up on him. Because the suddenly appeared move just now gave him the feeling of a sword dao secret technique, and that snow-white light was clearly a sword full of the cold artistic conception of ice!
However, as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he felt that something was wrong. This was the bottom of the Ice Cliff. He had used the Void Secret Technique to cheat his way down here. If there really was someone hiding here, how terrifying would this person’s strength be？
For such a powerful expert, would he need to launch a sneak attack to deal with himself？
So he quickly looked towards the source of the attack.
With this look, he was suddenly shocked.
In front of him, another snow-white sword glow, wrapped in a bone-chilling cold artistic conception, came towards him head-on. The power of the law burst out in all directions, splashing in the void, and was extremely unstoppable！
Unable to resist! Yang Kai instantly made such a judgment in his heart and once again used the teleportation technique to dodge from the original place.
At the bottom of this cliff, he had to constantly pay attention to the suppression of the Emperor’s Prestige and the cold artistic conception around him and maintain his Void Secret Technique so as not to be crushed to death. At this moment, such a violent attack suddenly appeared, and Yang Kai was really a bit flustered in dealing with it.
After avoiding the opponent’s second attack Yang Kai finally had a moment to spare and carefully looked towards the source of the attack.
After seeing clearly what was attacking him, Yang Kai’s eyes almost popped out. His heart was shocked, and he exclaimed in amazement: “How is it possible?”
What attacked him was not a person, but an existence in the shape of a demonic insect. The demonic insect looked like a dung beetle, with a thick carapace on its back. It should have originally been cyan-green in color, but perhaps because it had been in the bottom of this cliff for too long, its entire body presents a crystal-clear snow-white color.
“Soul-devouring Demonic Insect？ It can’t be？” Yang Kai simply couldn’t believe his eyes.
The Soul-devouring Demonic Insect is not a specialty of the Star Boundary. It also exists in the Star Field so Yang Kai recognizes this kind of strange insect. The Soul-devouring Demonic Insect can eat anything. As long as it has a bit of spiritual energy, it can become their food.
Secret treasures, precious armors, the flesh and blood of martial artists, Saint Crystals… and so on and so forth. Moreover, their gnawing ignores defenses, and they can even devour the extremely powerful ancient restrictions.
In the hometown Star Boundary, there is such a legend. On a certain cultivation star, there is an ancient sealed place that seals a ferocious existt. It was precisely a group of Soul-devouring Demonic Insects that devoured the energy of that ancient seal, which allowed that ferocious existence to break free plunging that cultivation star into a bloody storm and causing countless deaths and injuries.
Of course, this is just a legend. Whether it is true or false cannot be verified. But after all, there is no smoke without fire and the difficulty of dealing with the Soul-devouring Demonic Insects can be seen.
Fortunately, the growth rate of this kind of thing is extremely slow. Martial artists also know their harmfulness, so once they are discovered, they will do their best to kill them.
Yang Kai had also seen Soul-Eating Worms before, so he recognized it at a glance.
However… the Soul-Eating Worms he had seen were just little fellows the size of caterpillars and couldn’t cause any harm to martial artists at all.
But the snow-white Soul-Eating Worm in front of him was actually as tall as two people. It looked mighty and imposing, and just its fierce appearance gave Yang Kai a great deal of pressure.
“The mother body of the worm？” Yang Kai’s expression sank.
Soul-Eating Worms were not all extremely small existences. Their structure was somewhat similar to that of ants. Among a group of Soul-Eating Worms, there was a mother body, and all the Soul-Eating Worms obeyed the orders of the mother body.
The one in front of him was definitely the mother body of the worm！
Most ridiculously, there were two large pincers at the front of the snow-white mother body of the worm, and on one of the large pincers, there was also a sharp sword condensed from energy, shining with a bright white light.
Yang Kai was almost dumbfounded.
At the bottom of this ice cliff, the sudden appearance of such a huge mother body of the worm was already bizarre enough, and this mother body of the worm could actually condense an energy long sword on its own.
What was going on？
And the two exactly the same attacks like sword dao secret techniques just now were clearly slashed out by this mother body of the worm.
Even though Yang Kai had seen many big scenes and had rich experience, for a moment, he still felt that his mind was not enough. Everything he saw in front of him completely subverted his common sense and destroyed his cognition, making it impossible for him to find a reasonable explanation.
The spiritual intelligence of the Soul-Eating Insect is very low. Even if it grows for tens of thousands of years, it cannot evolve to the extent of knowing how to perform kendo secrets.
However, judging from the artistic conception contained in those two sword lights just now, its attainments in Kendo secrets are not low! Those two swords definitely have the style of a master.
There is one more thing that makes Yang Kai feel uncertain – he feels vaguely that those two swords or rather that a secret technique of kendo, look a little familiar.
Just as he was in a trance, the insect mother once again raised the energy long sword on its pincers high. Two small eyeballs shone with a cold white light, staring coldly at Yang Kai with a humanized contempt. Immediately, the ice cold and laws around it lingered on the energy long sword.
The white light flashed suddenly, and the sword light shot out horizontally, like a swimming dragon running!
Before it reached him, Yang Kai’s breathing stagnated. The place where he was located seemed to be frozen, and the space solidified.
This is the sword intent, a supreme and extremely cold sword intent! The energy wandering between heaven and earth turned into tiny ice needles, shooting towards Yang Kai going crazy.
Snow suddenly fell.
Yang Kai, however, exclaimed in horror： “Snow-Like Pure Heaven！”
His heart was shaken to the core. He never expected to see this secret sword technique in this Star Boundary. He was well aware of the power of this secret technique, so he didn’t dare to hesitate. With a push of his hands, countless moon blades shot out.
Boom boom boom…
The cold artistic conception collided with the power of space, making a huge sound that shook the entire ice cliff. Although Yang Kai’s research on space secret techniques had reached an unattainable level for ordinary people, he was only a Void King Stage 3 martial artist after all. Moreover, the harsh environment at the bottom of this ice cliff had a great enhancing effect on the sword technique secret technique casts by the mother body of the demon insect.
So as soon as the two secret techniques came into contact, the moon blades shattered with a bang and were no match for the sword lights.
The cold and dazzling sword lights tore through Yang Kai’s resistance and attacked his face.
Yang Kai’s breathing stagnated, and he hurriedly activated the Void Secret Technique to merge himself with the void.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
Countless ice needles and huge sword lights passed through the place where Yang Kai was, directly breaking his void.
Yang Kai’s transparent body reappeared. Although he had avoided most of the attacks by merging himself with the void, the cold artistic conception could not be completely resisted.
Yang Kai, who had revealed his form, was completely chilled, his complexion purplish. Before he could gather his spirit to deal with the insect mother, the Emperor Prestige and the laws of ice and cold around him had suppressed over.
Yang Kai, in a panic, hurriedly used the Void Secret Technique again to avoid that violent killing intent.
He couldn’t stay here any longer. If he continued to stay, it would definitely be a dead end！
Yang Kai had made a decision in his heart. At the moment his body became nihilistic, he frantically pushed his own strength teleporting one after another, rushing upwards, trying to escape from this place of right and wrong.
Even without looking back, Yang Kai knew that the insect mother was closely following behind, because the sword lights were shooting towards him from behind. If it weren’t for his proficiency in spatial secret techniques, he would probably either be frozen into an ice sculpture or be killed on the spot.
“Impossible! This doesn’t make sense at all!” Yang Kai, while flying upwards and dodging the attacks from behind, still had a look of incomprehension on his face.
The reason was none other than the sword dao secret technique by the insect mother that left him bewildered.
After observing that secret technique several times, Yang Kai finally determined that he had indeed seen this move before.
Snow Like Clear Sky！
It was clearly a secret technique that Su Yan had performed in front of him before.
During those days in Ling Xiao Sect, Yang Kai would also sometimes with Su Yan a few times. He had seen Su Yan play Snow Like Clear Sky more than once so he had a deep impression of this secret technique.
To encounter this secret technique again in the hands of a mother spirit-devouring bug after arriving in the Star Boundary, how could Yang Kai not be shocked？
The fact that the mother bug could use a secret technique was already shocking enough and the fact that it was the secret technique mastered by Su Yan made Yang Kai feel as if he was dreaming if it weren’t for the pain in his lungs.
However, it has to be said that the mother bug’s mastery and understanding of the secret technique Snow as Clear as the Sky was by no means comparable to that of Su Yan.
After all, Su Yan was at the First-Order Void King Realm at that time, and this secret technique was also learned by her from the Ice Heart Valley on Crimson Wave Star.
The same secret technique appearing in two different places, the only explanation was that someone was passing it on in the middle. Who could be the one pulling the strings？
Was this secret technique passed down from the Star Boundary or passed up from the Star Field？
Many thoughts flashed through Yang Kai’s mind, but he still couldn’t find a reasonable explanation.
However, soon, he remembered one thing. Su Yan had once said that everything she had learned in the Ice Heart Valley was created by the founding Bing Yun of the Ice Heart Valley. Even the Mysterious Frost Divine Sword she had brought out from the Ice Heart Valley was Bing Yun’s sword in the past.
The dusty memory was opened, and Yang Kai vaguely remembered that in the Bingxin Valley on Chiluan Star back then the Sect Master Binglong had once said that it was highly likely that the founding Bingyun of Bingxin Valley had never died, because in the forbidden area’s cold pool, there was only Bingyun’s saber Xuanshuang, and there was no virtual crystal of Bingyun.
Could it be…
The founding Bingyun of Bingxin Valley also came to the Star Boundary?
