Chapter 1431
byUh… The title of chapter 1442 was forgotten to be written. So embarrassing… Forgive me, forgive me. I was talking to someone when I got up in the morning and forgot for a moment, but it doesn’t affect reading.

Half an hour later, Yang Kai let out a soft breath, stepped forward, came to the corpse of the monster beast, bent down and reached out, inserted it into its abdomen, and took out its fragrance pouch and inner core.
A strange fragrance diffused out, and when it was smelled into the nose, it couldn’t help but make people feel refreshed and extremely comfortable.
This monster beast really has a blood relationship with the colorful elk. Even if it is not a direct bloodline, it should be the product after hybridization. Although its fragrance pouch and inner core cannot be used to refine rare treasures like the Ten Thousand Years Fragrance, they can be used to refine some elixirs for resisting the heart demons.
Such elixirs are extremely precious. They are the things that martial artists most want to obtain when breaking through a great realm, and they are also the hardest to obtain. An elixir is hard to find even with ten thousand gold. In the hands of an alchemist like Yang Kai, the fragrance pouch and inner core can definitely exert a huge effect and also bring unimaginable value！
The battle just now was not very thrilling for Yang Kai, but it took a lot of trouble.
Just relying on the Space Blade, Yang Kai couldn’t kill it at all. The speed of that monster beast was really too fast. After seeing that the situation was not good, it actually wanted to escape! How could Yang Kai let it do as it wished? He immediately sacrificed the formation plate of the split cloud sea array and turned it into a sea of clouds to envelop it.
With the power of the split cloud sea array, it was trapped, and then he succeeded.
The array token of the Light-Splitting Cloud Sea Array was brought out by Yang Kai from the Emperor Garden. It was extremely miraculous. At the beginning, when Fei Zhitu and the others were trapped in it, they also suffered a great deal. With Yang Kai’s current strength, coupled with the Space Blade and the Golden Blood Thread, how could that demonic beast still survive.
The inner core and the fragrant pouch were the most precious things on this demonic beast. However, the body of the 9th Order Peak demonic beast could not be wasted either. After thinking about it, Yang Kai took out the Dragon Bone Sword, Dicui, and circulated his Saint Yuan into it.
The Dragon Bone Sword immediately transformed into a one-zhang-long green little dragon. It opened its mouth and swallowed the demonic beast’s corpse into its belly. After a moment, it spat it out again. Only the shriveled corpse was left, and all the essence of its flesh and blood seemed to have been devoured completely.
Yang Kai revealed a smile. The Dragon Bone Sword was a secret treasure that could grow. By devouring the essence of the flesh and blood of its enemies, its power would become stronger and stronger.
Satisfied, he put it away, and then sent out several strands of Saint Yuan to withdraw the Light-Splitting Cloud Sea Array. After retrieving the array token, Yang Kai then turned his head and took a look in the direction where the five people had left. The sound of wind and thunder behind him was loud, and the Wind and Thunder Wings appeared. With a flash of his figure, he disappeared from the original place.
At the same time, thousands of miles away from this place, in a certain natural cave, the five Void Returning Realm cultivators who had previously fought with the demonic beast were all gathered here.
This cave was originally the lair of some unknown demonic beast, seemingly a python or something similar. However, it has been abandoned for a long time and the environment is dry, so the five of them used it as a temporary resting place.
A simple concealment formation was also set up outside.
That mutated colorful elk hasn’t caught up yet. It seems that kid has led it away. Not bad not bad. Although that kid’s cultivation level is not high, he should have cultivated some secret escape technique and his speed is not slow.” Among the five people, the black-haired old man probed outside with his spiritual sense for a long time before saying with great joy on his face.
“With his cultivation level, I’m afraid it will be very difficult for him to escape.” The petite woman with the lowest cultivation level showed a hint of sadness on her face and seemed a bit guilty.
“What does his life or death have to do with us? This trip to the Emperor’s Garden was originally thought to be full of surprises, but unexpectedly there are accidents everywhere and thorns at every step. The five of us being able to survive until now is already a great blessing. How can we still care about others?” The white-haired old man snorted coldly.
Another middle-aged woman also said, “Yes, I didn’t expect the inside of the Emperor’s Garden to be so dangerous. There were ten of us in total, and now only five are left. If we hadn’t retreated early, I’m afraid even we would have lost our lives in there.”
“Alas！” The black-haired old man let out a soft sigh and said self-mockingly, “The older one gets, the smaller one’s courage becomes. Although the interior of the Imperial Garden is full of crises, there are also many benefits. If it were in my younger days, I would definitely not have withdrawn. But now that I’m old, I’m so hesitant and far from being as fearless as I was back then！”
These words also resonated with the white-haired old man, who nodded and said, “That’s right. In the past, there was nowhere you and I dared not go. Even a dragon’s pool or a tiger’s den, we could charge in. But now…”
Another long sigh followed.
For a while, the underground cave was eerily quiet, with only the faint breathing of the five people coming out.
About half a cup of tea later, a clear shout suddenly came from outside： “Yang Mou greets all friends. I have something to ask and wonder if I can come in and have a chat？”
The voice clearly entered their ears, causing the complexions of the five people sitting cross-legged in meditation to change drastically. The white-haired old man immediately shouted sharply： “Who？”
Being bargained to the front without even detecting the whereabouts of the person, this immediately raised a sense of alarm in the white-haired old man’s heart. He secretly rejoiced that the visitor did not launch a surprise attack. Otherwise, if he harbored any malicious intentions, the five of them might already have become turtles in a jar.
A hearty laugh came from outside： “We just parted ways not long ago. Have you already forgotten me？ Well, let me introduce myself first. I am Yang Kai！”
“Yang Kai？” The brows of several people furrowed deeply, but when their spiritual thoughts swept outwards, they all revealed expressions of astonishment.
“It’s actually that brat from before！”
“Not only did he not die, but he also got rid of that monster beast？ How is this possible？”
The five people looked at each other in dismay, very curious about how Yang Kai managed to escape from the clutches of that monster beast. However, they also had some concerns. After all, when the five of them were fleeing earlier, they all had the intention of using Yang Kai as a shield. Now that the other party has chased after them, they don’t know what his intentions are.
“Brother Min…” The black-haired old man looked at the white-haired old man, with a hint of hesitation on his face.
“It’s okay. Listening to his tone of voice, he doesn’t seem to be here to seek revenge. Moreover, his cultivation level is not high. Even if he wants to seek revenge, does he have the ability？ Let him come in.” The white-haired old man said freely. It’s no wonder he doesn’t have good judgment. After all, Yang Kai’s cultivation level is there, and he is alone and has no support. He believes that the other party can’t make any waves in front of the five of them.
Upon hearing this, the black-haired old man waved his hand and shot out a strand of Saint Yuan, temporarily closing the formation that concealed their auras, and said politely, “Little friend, please come in！”
“Thank you！” Yang Kai smiled slightly, took a step forward, and walked towards the cave, without showing any sign of caution, which made the five people in the cave couldn’t help but be astonished again and again.
The other party ventured deep alone and was still so bold. Either he had a problem with his mind and didn’t know the evil of the world, or he had some kind of reliance and didn’t take the five of them seriously.
The latter is not very likely, so obviously it is the former！
This also makes sense. The other party looks young but has the cultivation level of the Void Returning Mirror. He is probably a disciple of some great power, who has been in seclusion and cultivation in the sect all year round, not in contact with outsiders, and not familiar with the ways of the world.
Thinking of this, the expressions of the five people in the cave softened a lot.
Such a person is very easy to deal with.
The area of the cave is not large, about a dozen feet in diameter. It is dark inside. After Yang Kai fell into it, he turned his head and looked around, nodding secretly.
Although the actions of these five people when they escaped just now made him uncomfortable, it seems that they are not extremely evil people. Otherwise, as soon as he fell down, they would definitely make a sneak attack.
At least for now, they haven’t shown any malice. Moreover, the petite woman nodded slightly to him, and the other woman seemed a little shy and embarrassed, as if she felt a little guilty because of her previous actions.
Not bad. Yang Kai was still thinking just now that if these people didn’t know what was good for them, he would definitely not show mercy.
Now it seems that some troubles have been saved.
“I am Yang Kai. Nice to meet you all.” Yang Kai slightly cupped his fists and smiled hehe.
“Young friend Yang is too polite!” The white-haired old man seemed to be the leader of this group of people. He was also quite sensible and didn’t ask too much about how Yang Kai managed to escape from the fierce power of that monster beast. Instead, he introduced himself with a gentle smile and said, “I am Min Sha, the island master of Songyue Island. These are all my close friends.
His expression was easy-going, as if nothing had happened before.
“Songyue Island？” Yang Kai frowned, looking blank.
However, since the other party was the island master of an island, he presumably lived overseas. It was normal that he hadn’t heard of it. After all, he had never been overseas, and the only force he had dealt with over there was Haixinmen.
Yang Kai took it for granted like this, but the next words of Min Sha made him dumbfounded and stunned on the spot.
“Yes, Songyue Island is an island on Qingmu Star. Young friend naturally couldn’t have heard of it. I wonder which star Young friend Yang is from？” Min Sha asked.
“Qingmu Star？” Yang Kai’s eyes widened, looking at Min Sha and the others in surprise and shock, and his mood fluctuated for a while.
However, his thinking was also quite agile. Although Min Sha didn’t say much, just two sentences, he heard some unexpected information from it and asked in surprise, “Island Master Min, could it be that this Emperor’s Garden is not only accessible to warriors from one star?
As soon as these words came out, all five people laughed.
Yang Kai scratched his head and stood there somewhat awkwardly, knowing that he must have asked the wrong question.
“Could the star that Young Friend Yang comes from be in a remote place？” Min Sha boldly speculated.
“That’s right, Island Master Min. The star that I, Yang, come from is indeed rather remote, so…” Yang Kai nodded slightly.
“Oh, that makes sense.” Min Sha had a look of understanding. “Our Azure Wood Star is also like this. Its location is remote, and it’s inconvenient to communicate with the outside world. Originally, the thoughts of us old fellows were the same as yours, Young Friend Yang. We thought that only the martial artists of our Azure Wood Star could enter the Emperor’s Garden. Who would have known that after coming in, we found out that the martial artists of the entire star field can enter this place. I also inquired with others that day and found that the Emperor’s Garden has a virtual shadow projected on each star. As long as one holds the Emperor Jade, one can be teleported here through that spatial array.
“So that’s how it is…” Yang Kai mumbled and casually said, “The Dark Star where I am is probably in a similar situation to your Azure Wood Star.”
“Dark Star？” The five people all furrowed their brows and obviously hadn’t heard of it.
But presumably, even though the Azure Wood Star is in a remote location and inconvenient to communicate with the outside world, it must be much better than the Dark Star. The Dark Star is almost isolated from the world and simply cannot connect with the rest of the star domain. The Azure Wood Star definitely wouldn’t be like this.
