Chapter 1211

Sure enough, it was the Star Emperor Sect! Ever since seeing Qu Changfeng treat this person so carefully in the stalactite cave, Yang Kai had had some guesses. Only the people from the Star Emperor Sect could make the arrogant and overbearing Qu Changfeng be so restrained in front of him, and even if he suffered a loss, he could only endure it with his nose pinched and didn’t dare to take revenge on the spot.

As if afraid that Yang Kai didn’t know how powerful the Star Emperor Sect was, Dai Yuan said with a serious expression, “In the entire You’an Star, on the surface, the three most powerful forces are the Star Emperor Sect, the Battle Heaven League, and the Thunder Terrace Sect. But in fact, every force knows that the Battle Heaven League and the Thunder Terrace Sect are not even close to the Star Emperor Sect. It is heard that on the Star Emperor Mountain, there are over a hundred powerful martial artists at the peak of the Third-Order Return to Void Realm. This is a very terrifying number and simply not something that the Battle Heaven League and the Thunder Terrace Sect can compare with. Moreover, I also heard that they have mastered several extremely powerful Void King Grade Secret Treasures.”

“So powerful？” Yang Kai was shocked. A sect having over a hundred peak Third-Order Return to Void Realm powerhouses was truly astonishing.

“Yes, but their total number of people is relatively small, and they never recruit disciples from outside, so their reputation is not very prominent.”

“Then how does their inheritance continue？” Yang Kai furrowed his brows.

“I’m not too sure. However, over the countless years, there have been rumors that some extremely lucky people happened to encounter the powerhouses who came down from the Star Emperor Mountain to travel and were taken back to cultivate. But the number of such people is not too many, only a few, four or five at most.” Dai Yuan smiled slightly. “The people on the Star Emperor Mountain rarely come out and move around. So although they have a large number of powerhouses, as long as other forces don’t provoke them, they won’t bully the weak with their strength. But if someone provokes them…”

Yang Kai narrowed his eyes and noticed that Dai Yuan’s delicate body had trembled slightly just now.

His heart was shocked, thinking that there were really audacious people who had provoked such a terrifying existence, and the end result must be very tragic.

Dai Yuan’s voice became much lower, and her apricot mouth opened slightly and said, “Generally speaking, every ten years or twenty to thirty years or so, one or several younger generation disciples from Star Emperor Mountain will come out to experience. And these disciples also do not show off their strength. They are very low-key. I’m afraid no one will know their background until they return to Star Emperor Mountain. I saw a thing in a secret record book of the Colored Glass Sect. It is said that two thousand years ago, there was once a sect on You’an Star that was as famous as the Battle Heaven League and the Lei Tai Sect. It seemed to be called the Gu Yang Sect. At that time, a young martial artist who came down from Star Emperor Mountain accidentally obtained a precious treasure, which was learned by some people in the Gu Yang Sect. Those people set up an ambush for him and killed him on the spot, and then took the treasure and returned. One month later… the Gu Yang Sect was uprooted overnight and suffered the disaster of extermination！”

Yang Kai’s complexion changed drastically.

There was no need to think about it. It was certain that the one who destroyed the Gu Yang Sect was the Star Emperor Sect. To be able to destroy an existence as famous as the Battle Heaven League and the Lei Tai Sect overnight, one could imagine how powerful the Star Emperor Sect was.

Dai Yuan, however, smiled sweetly, brushed the strand of hair by her ear, and said, “But this was something that happened over two thousand years ago. No one knows if it’s true or false. The elders in the sect also have a deep taboo about this matter and have never mentioned it, so there’s no way to ask anything. However, there is a place on the Dark Star now called the Hidden Male Valley. The area within a radius of a thousand miles is barren, with no grass growing, and the yin qi is extremely thick. It is rumored that that was once the location of the Ancient Yang Sect. In the past, there were many martial artists who went in groups to the Hidden Male Valley to seek opportunities, saying that the Ancient Yang Sect had a hidden secret cave with many precious treasures and a large amount of wealth. Unfortunately, no one has found it, and many people have fallen.”

“Have you been there？” Yang Kai looked at Dai Yuan with a smile. Although several times in her words, she used words like ‘heard’ or ‘rumored’, from her tone, Yang Kai could also tell that she had determined that these rumors were true. I’m afraid the other party had also been to the Hidden Male Valley.”

“Naturally, I have been there.” Dai Yuan nodded gently. “But I didn’t have any harvest. Instead, I was entangled by a strand of cold yin qi. It took me several days to resolve it after returning to the Glazed Sect. If Junior Brother Yang is interested, he can go and take a look, but he must be careful.”

“Yeah. If there’s a chance.” Yang Kai nodded carelessly, but in his heart, he didn’t think much of it. Even if the Ancient Yang Sect really had some hidden secret cave, now that two thousand years had passed, it was probably already discovered. He didn’t think such a thing would remain until now. If he went there and ended up with nothing, it would just be a waste of time and energy. He wasn’t willing to do such a thing.

“Hehe.” Dai Yuan also saw Yang Kai’s perfunctory attitude and didn’t continue to dwell on this topic. She just said, “In the past, people who came out of the Star Emperor Mountain were generally not discovered, but this time it’s different. Coincidentally, it happened to be the opening of the Flowing Flame Sand Land. So before coming in, my master once told me to be careful of those martial artists who are alone, have strange faces, but have earth-shattering means, because maybe he is a disciple of the Star Emperor Sect！ To be honest, when I first met Junior Brother Yang, I thought you were from the Star Emperor Sect…””

Yang Kai was stunned. He didn’t expect her to have such a misunderstanding, but it was no wonder. To the people of the Dark Star, he was indeed a strange face, and being able to break into the third level with the cultivation of a Saint King Layer 1, his means must be extraordinary. It was inevitable that Dai Yuan would have such a misunderstanding.

Thinking of this, Yang Kai’s heart moved, secretly thinking that no wonder Meng Hongliang of Que He Sect and Huang Xiran of Ji Dao Sect seemed to have misunderstood something after he showed some means. It turned out that they thought he came from Star Emperor Mountain, so that Meng Hongliang was so cautious.

Dai Yuan also had such a misunderstanding, but after learning that Yang Kai had dealings with Wei Guchang, she immediately denied the guess in her heart, because the people of Star Emperor Sect generally would not make friends with others.

And after coming here and seeing that cold man, she instantly understood that that person was the real disciple of Star Emperor Sect.

The two talked for a while and then didn’t say anything more. They both closed their eyes and continued to meditate and insights.

The rising red sun rose higher and higher until it reached the midday sky.

The fruity aroma floating in the air became stronger and stronger, and the various insights that could be obtained from the fruity aroma were naturally deeper and deeper, making every martial artist excited, encouraged, and overjoyed.

Suddenly, the earth seemed to tremble slightly, and then an earth-shattering energy burst out leisurely.

Such a change made all the martial artists present change their complexions in unison. In an instant, they woke up from the deep-level perception and looked at the valley in front of them in horror.

There seemed to be an additional layer of red mist in the valley, and the red mist contained extremely terrifying power.

The appearance of the red mist was extremely strange. There was no sign of it before, but when the martial artists looked over, it had already filled the valley, and its speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it covered the entire valley.

Immediately, astonishing heat spread in all directions, forming a hot wind that blew towards every corner of the third layer of the Flowing Flame Sand Ground.

Everyone had experienced such a thing once before. Now that they saw it again, their frightened mood immediately eased a lot. They knew that although this hot wind looked terrifying, it didn’t cause any damage to people at all.

Sure enough, when the hot wind swept over everyone’s bodies and spread further away, no one had any accidents.

However, in the very center of the valley, another red sun was born and was slowly rising from the bottom of the valley！

The red sun was not big, only about the size of a bamboo hat. Divine sense couldn’t penetrate it, and the naked eye couldn’t see it clearly. If you stared at it for a long time, you would immediately feel dizzy.

An even stronger fruity aroma spread out, and the sound of intense heartbeats came violently from the chests of the martial artists.

The second red sun had appeared.

This also means that the Red Candle Fruit is one step closer to real maturity. The major sects that learned the truth of this place from Li Younan of the Medicine Pill Sect all seem to be unable to suppress the restlessness in their hearts. The tense and hostile atmosphere quickly spreads around the valley. Everyone looks at each other, and it seems that everyone is a sworn enemy, and they can’t wait to rush over and kill everyone right away.

And those sect warriors who don’t know the truth and don’t know the wonder that will occur when the Red Candle Fruit matures are also greatly affected by this atmosphere. While carefully paying attention to and detecting the movements of others, not letting go of any clues, they also send people to inquire about information from familiar sects.

Soon, all kinds of secrets about the Red Candle Fruit spread, so that every warrior who came here understood the reason, which made the tumultuous atmosphere calm down a lot.

Since the wonder of Three Yang Opening Tai will occur, and now only two rounds of red suns have risen, there is no need to rush to take action. Moreover, before it is really mature, the Red Candle Fruit is not seen at all. Even if someone wants to make a move to snatch it, they can only give up resentfully because they have no place to start.

After the appearance of the second round of red sun, the valley only commotion ed for a while, and then everyone silent ed down again Continue to absorb the fruity fragrance, understand the various wonders, and integrate their own cultivation.

Yang Kai was also immersed in it. He felt that through such an understanding, his control and understanding of Saint Yuan seemed to have improved to a higher level. There was a vague idea in his heart. Although he grasped some traces, he couldn’t integrate and understand them.

This situation was like dozens of cat claws scratching at the itchy spot, making Yang Kai fidgety. He threw himself wholeheartedly into his own idea, wanting to clarify the vague idea with the help of this opportunity before the Red Candle Fruit matured. Once it could really be realized, his combat power would increase a lot.

Time passed little by little. Just when everyone was gained something, on a hill, a roar suddenly came out: “Bastard, actually dare to set up a formation secretly!”

This roar woke up many warriors who were meditating and understanding. Looking in the direction of the source of that person’s voice, they saw a member of the Battle Heaven League, angrily waving a huge fan. The green rhyme flowed on the fan, and the energy was not low. At a glance, it was a good secret treasure.
