Chapter 1352
byAfter dealing with the matter of the formation plate, Yang Kai picked up the jade bottle in front of him again.
The thing contained in this jade bottle was none other than the Life Nectar obtained in the Emperor’s Garden！ However, in Yang Kai’s speculation, this was the diluted Life Nectar.
To verify his guess, Yang Kai opened the jade bottle and unhesitatingly raised his head and took a sip.
If others were to see Yang Kai’s actions, they would probably curse him for being wasteful. The Life Nectar can prolong the lifespan of martial artists, enhance the power of qi and blood, and has the magical effect of bringing the dead back to life. It has great attraction for those Void Returning Realm powerhouses with limited lifespan. Just a small sip can prolong their lifespan by a hundred years. With this sip, Yang Kai has almost consumed the lifespan of others for hundreds of years. It is simply a waste of precious things.
It tasted mellow and even had a slightly sweet taste, like the clear spring in the mountains. After the nectar entered his abdomen, it immediately turned into strands of pure energy and wandered in the limbs and bones.
Yang Kai silently felt the changes in himself, and a look of joy appeared on his face.
He found that the power of his qi and blood was rising, and all the blood in his body had the sign of boiling. Soon the huge power of qi and blood reached a limit, and the excess power of qi and blood had nowhere to vent, making Yang Kai blush and his neck thick, as if he was going to explode and die the next moment.
However, Yang Kai didn’t show any panic at all. He silently operated his profound skills, urged his Saint Yuan, and guided those power that seemed to explode to gather in a certain part of his body.
As the power of qi and blood gathered, the blood flowing in the body seemed to be drawn as well, and all kinds of essences separated from the blood and also converged here.
Time passed slowly. It was only about half an hour before and after. Yang Kai suddenly heard a soft ticking sound from the depths of his heart.
His eyebrows raised, and he released his spiritual thoughts to observe. Immediately, his expression shook, revealing a look of joy and surprise.
He discovered that there was actually an extra drop of golden blood in his body！
It was not the blood flowing in the flesh and blood, but that kind of pure golden blood. The blood that could be cultivated into golden blood filaments！
There were not many such golden bloods in Yang Kai’s body. Originally, when he just came to You’an Star, there were more than ninety drops. However, over the years, due to the use in battles, distribution to the divine tree for nourishment and other reasons, the number of golden bloods had decreased by about half.
And since Yang Kai knew that the golden blood was of great use to the divine tree, he would give it a drop every few months. The consumption over time was also a considerable effort.
Now that he had cultivated the golden blood filament secret technique, only one golden blood filament could be cultivated from one drop of golden blood. Even if Yang Kai refined all the golden blood into filaments, there would only be a few dozen. It was still far from his great plan.
Although Yang Kai could also supplement this kind of golden blood through hard cultivation, the birth of each drop of golden blood would consume his three months of hard cultivation accumulation. This point, he had verified a long time ago.
Unexpectedly, this Life Elixir could actually make new golden blood be born in his body.
This was not difficult to understand. After all, the Life Elixir, one of the three great divine waters, was originally to enhance a warrior’s blood and qi power, and the most important element for the birth of golden blood was precisely this.
Keeping the surprise in his heart, Yang Kai continued to circulate his cultivation method to refine the efficacy of the Life Elixir.
Another half an hour later, a second drop of golden blood appeared in his body.
It was not until the third drop of golden blood took shape that the efficacy of the Life Elixir completely disappeared.
Just a small mouthful of Life Elixir could make three drops of golden blood appear in his body. With the amount in this bottle, he could at least save up thirty drops, right？ It was almost enough to make up for the consumption of these years.
Yang Kai was overjoyed. He cheered up and drank the Life Elixir mouthful after mouthful, constantly refining its efficacy into his own golden blood.
He didn’t feel it was a pity at all. The Life Elixir might be a life-saving medicine for those powerful people with not much lifespan left, but for him, as long as it could promote the birth of golden blood, that was its greatest use.
However, even so, Yang Kai could also confirm that the Life Elixir he obtained was indeed only a diluted product. The real Life Elixir must have even more powerful efficacy, and it was hidden somewhere in the Emperor’s Garden！
Thinking of this, Yang Kai’s heart burned with excitement. If he could really enter the Emperor Garden and obtain that Life Essence Liquid, then he wouldn’t have to worry about the quantity of his Golden Blood at all. At that time, it might not even be a dream to replace all the blood in his body with this pure Golden Blood.
With the powerful vitality and recovery ability contained in this Golden Blood, even if he were injured, he could recover at an extremely fast speed.
In just two days, a bottle of Life Essence Liquid was consumed. Yang Kai still felt a bit unsatisfied, but he didn’t force it. Instead, he closed his eyes, held the crystal in his hand, and began to absorb the energy within it.
In the blink of an eye, half a year passed.
During these six months, Yang Kai didn’t leave the Stone Mansion at all, and he only did three things.
One was to cultivate the mysteries of spatial power by absorbing the energy of the mysteries. The second was to refine the Golden Blood Threads in his body. Now, there were already several Golden Blood Threads in his body. With the previous refining experience, Yang Kai’s speed of refining the Golden Blood Threads was undoubtedly much faster.
Although the number of Golden Blood Threads increased, their power didn’t change. The main reason was that Yang Kai only obtained the upper part of the secret technique of the Demon Blood Sect. How to combine and change more Golden Blood Threads should all be hidden in the lower part.
Yang Kai wasn’t in a hurry either. As long as the Demon Blood Sect still existed, he would always have the opportunity to deal with them. Now, refining more Golden Blood Threads in advance was just in case.
The third thing was to accelerate the fusion speed of the Glazed Pearl and the World Exterminating Demon Eye. After the Glazed Pearl was refined by him last time, it turned into a haze that wrapped the World Exterminating Demon Eye. Although the two had the same wonderful effect, the fusion was rather slow. Now that he had free time, Yang Kai naturally had the intention to promote it a little.
And other than that, it was that Yang Yan would bring some strange things every now and then and ask him to inject spatial power into them！
These things were of different sizes and strange shapes, and he didn’t know what they were exactly. Yang Kai asked once, but Yang Yan just smiled and didn’t answer, only telling him not to worry so much and just inject spatial power into them.
Yang Kai helplessly shook his head and thought that no wonder Yang Yan had greeted him before and said that there was something for him to help with. Besides himself, others really couldn’t help with this kind of thing.
Occasionally, when he was free, Yang Kai would also refine some pills.
After all, there were so many people in Dragon Cave Mountain, and now they also needed pills for their cultivation. If they only bought them from the outside, the price was too high. So Yang Kai instructed Wu Yi to buy more medicinal materials and he would refine them. On the one hand, it could save some expenses, and on the other hand, it could also improve his own pill-refining skills.
In half a year, Yang Kai had refined a lot of pills, but he didn’t do anything too shocking. Basically, he refined ordinary pills. Only occasionally, when he was in the mood, would he refine one or two spirit pills with pill patterns.
Yang Kai discovered that as his own strength increased, his alchemy skills seemed to have improved a great deal as well. Now, refining a Void-Grade Middle-Rank Pill didn’t seem to pose much difficulty. By the time he advanced to the Void-Return Stage, he was afraid he would be able to attempt refining Void-Grade High-Rank Pills.
The Artifact Spirit had long since awakened, and this was its second awakening. After the first awakening, Yang Kai had allowed it to devour a wisp of True Fire of the Sun. Counting the previous time, the Artifact Spirit had devoured a total of three wisps of True Fire of the Sun.
Now, the scorching aura on the Artifact Spirit was more than twice as strong as when Yang Kai had just obtained it.
While Yang Kai was doing his own thing, the Artifact Spirit would stimulate the power of the Refining Furnace to refine the Dragon Bone and Dragon Pearl for him, so there was no need for Yang Kai to exert much effort.
One day, Yang Yan brought a whole bunch of messy things again and asked Yang Kai to infuse Spatial Energy into each of them one by one.
Yang Kai complied without any complaints, doing as she said.
During this period, Yang Yan chattered on and on, telling Yang Kai about the developments of various forces outside during this time.
Because the Qian Tong Association would send people to deliver messages here from time to time, the Dragon Cave Mountain was still well-informed about the changes in the outside world.
The Shadow Moon Palace widely distributed invitations, inviting the powerhouses of various major forces to the main palace to discuss matters regarding the Emperor’s Garden. After much deliberation, a total of fifty top powerhouses at the Third-Order Void-Return Stage were gathered, intending to force their way into the Emperor’s Garden and find the way to enter.
Fifty people went, but only half of them returned.
The remaining half all perished！
This incident happened four months ago. When Yang Kai heard about it at that time, he almost bit off his tongue. After a series of inquiries, he learned that these fifty people didn’t know what kind of restriction they had triggered. Under the imperial might emitted by the Emperor’s Garden, they were powerless to resist and were crushed into powder by dainty jade hands formed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The half that survived all relied on their own secret techniques or self-detonated their secret treasures to escape. Otherwise, I’m afraid they would have been wiped out!
The past is a prologue. Since then, no one has dared to approach the Emperor’s Garden without permission. Even a powerful lineup composed of fifty Void Return Stage 3 experts couldn’t do anything about the Emperor’s Garden, let alone others.
However, the major forces didn’t leave either. Instead, they left some people behind to monitor the dynamics of the Emperor’s Garden at all times！
Everyone is speculating that perhaps the Emperor’s Garden hasn’t reached the time to open. This speculation is not without reason, because the Flowing Flame Sand Field is extremely dangerous when it’s not open. Anyone who enters it will surely die. But after it opens, Martial Artists of the Saint King Realm can enter it to temper themselves.
It’s impossible to verify who exactly put forward this speculation, but it has been recognized by most people.
Naturally, those powerful experts didn’t have the time to stay here for a long time waiting for the opening of the Emperor’s Garden. They all had their own important matters to attend to. How could they have so much free time？ Naturally, they could only leave behind a group of people.
And after this incident, the Shadowmoon Palace was also in a difficult situation.
They invited various powerful forces to investigate the Emperor’s Garden together, which was also out of good intentions. But more than twenty experts at the third level of the Void Returning Realm had fallen all at once. Almost every major force had suffered losses. So this nameless anger was directed at the Shadowmoon Palace.
This time, the Shadowmoon Palace really didn’t get a good return for their good intentions. They might not care about the accusations from one or two forces, but with more than twenty forces, the Shadowmoon Palace could only deal with them carefully.
