Chapter 1807
by“The spiritual energy in this place was even thinner originally.” Yang Kai smiled faintly and carefully felt the surroundings, his brows slightly furrowed.
“What’s wrong?” Ghost Ancestor asked when he saw Yang Kai’s strange expression.
“It shouldn’t be like this.” A hint of suspicion appeared on Yang Kai’s face. “The spiritual energy of this continent shouldn’t still be so thin. It’s been so long, it should have become much richer.”
The reason why the spiritual energy of the Tongxuan Continent was thin in the past was, firstly, because of the seal of the Great Demon God, which isolated this cultivation star from the star field and prevented it from receiving the influx of external spiritual energy. Secondly, it was because the star source of this cultivation star was on the wane.
However, after Little Senior Sister refined the source power and became the star master of the Tongxuan Continent, there should have been changes here.
The stronger Little Senior Sister’s strength is, the more feedback the Tongxuan Continent will receive.
After such a long time, no matter how bad the Tongxuan Continent is, it couldn’t possibly still have only this little spiritual energy.
“This isn’t any spiritual mountain or great river. Maybe it’s just that the spiritual energy is inherently insufficient.” Ghost Ancestor glanced at the terrain around and said casually.
Yang Kai nodded slightly, agreeing with his view.
“Let’s go. Return to my former sect.” Yang Kai greeted and, after identifying the direction, led Ghost Ancestor towards the direction of the Nine Heavens Holy Land.
He decided to set up the super spatial within the Nine Heavens Holy Land. There is a natural great formation where nine peaks converge, which is one of the few places with rich spiritual energy on the entire Tongxuan Continent. With his current means, as long as he sets up a restriction barrier nearby, it will be sufficient to cover the existence of the spatial array. He believes that with the level of martial artists on the Tongxuan Continent, even if given ten thousand years, they would never be able to break it.
In the blink of an eye, three to five days passed.
Both Yang Kai and Ghost Ancestor, who were flying in the air, had slightly wrinkled brows and constantly looked down.
“Elder, have you noticed anything amiss?” Yang Kai asked in a deep voice.
“The spiritual energy of your homeland is flowing away very seriously, just like a balloon with a hole, leaking air everywhere.”
“You felt it too.” Yang Kai’s expression sank.
Youdaoplaceholder0, when he perceived that the spiritual energy of the Tongxuan Continent was thin Yang Kai felt something was wrong. However, the place where he landed at that time was not a place of outstanding beauty and spirituality so Yang Kai didn’t pay attention.
But now, after flying for three to five days. Everywhere they passed, there was no place with abundant spiritual energy. Whether it was the lofty mountains or the surging rivers, they all looked is dull.
This discovery suddenly made his heart.
There are only two possibilities for such a situation. One possibility is that there is something wrong with the Tongxuan Continent itself, and the second possibility is that the Star Master Xia Ning Shang has had an accident.
Youdaoplaceholder0 possibility it is, it is extremely disadvantageous for Little Senior Sister.
Yang Kai suddenly regretted coming here. He couldn’t wait to return to the You’an Star to see if Little Senior Sister was okay.
But after thinking about it, Little Senior Sister is extremely safe staying in the Lingxiao Sect and should not have any problems. So is it that something has happened to this continent?
But what exactly could make the entire continent seem so dull and the already not rich spiritual energy become thinner and thinner?
“Huh? What are these guys down there doing?” The Ghost Ancestor suddenly discovered something and pointed downward and said.
Yang Kai immediately stopped his figure and looked down from a height of ten thousand feet.
I saw that there was a huge valley below, and in that valley, a bright six-pointed star-shaped magic array was operating. Around this magic array, countless warriors were standing densely. Each one was pinching a magic formula and struggling to maintain the operation of the magic array. From time to time, a warrior couldn’t hold on and fell down, but immediately someone else would take over.
Around the magic array, there were also some warriors in black clothes looking on coldly, occasionally shouting loudly and even hitting people.
Each of these men in black had a surging aura but they did not participate in maintaining the operation of the magic array. Instead, they seemed to be supervising.
“The Void Returning Mirror?” Yang Kai’s brows jumped. He said in surprise, “How is it possible? How could there be a Void Returning Mirror powerhouse here?”
Since ancient times on the Tongxuan Continent, the most powerful warrior born was the Great Demon God. But even the Great Demon God only touched the mystery of the Saint King Realm. After him, the peak of the warriors on the Tongxuan Continent was the Saint Entry Realm!
The Little Senior Sister refined the origin of the stars and only then, by coincidence, advanced to the level of the Void Returning Mirror.
But now, Yang Kai, in the passing valley, actually detected the auras of two Void Returning Mirror warriors.
Although it was only at the first-layer level, it was indeed the Void Returning Mirror without a doubt.
“There were no Void Returning Mirror warriors in your hometown before?” the Ghost Ancestor asked.
“The most powerful ones before were only at the third-layer of the Saint Entry Realm!”
“In that case. Then they are from outside!” The Ghost Ancestor pointed below and said, “And look at the formation below. It seems to be devouring the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth when it is operating. They seem to be using this formation to refine something!”
“From outside…” A fierce light flashed in Yang Kai’s eyes. “Courting death!”
At this moment, he suddenly understood.
The reason why the Tongxuan Continent had been safe and sound before and had not been invaded by the powerhouses of the star field was completely because of the barrier prohibition set up by the Great Demon God back then. The Great Demon God was extremely talented. He set up the barrier with the foundation of the Tongxuan Continent allowing this entire cultivation star to escape from the star field.
But his barrier was eventually broken by Yang Kai, allowing the Tongxuan Continent to re-integrate into the Star Territory.
Decades have passed, and finally some powerful Star Territory warriors have discovered the existence of the Tongxuan Continent and invaded here.
Yang Kai left the Tongxuan Continent back then. One reason was to search for Su Yan, and the other was to pursue a higher martial path, so as not to be powerless to resist when his homeland was eroded. The invasion of the Bone Race back then was the best example. If it weren’t for the Great Demon God’s extraordinary means, this continent would have long been enslaved.
And now, such a thing has really happened again!
The formation arranged by those people below is extracting the spiritual energy of the Tongxuan Continent, which is tantamount to strangling Xia Ning Shang ‘s path of cultivation.
Yang Kai was suddenly filled with anger, and his figure plummeted downward like a shooting star, wrapped in endless cold air.
In the valley below, there were at least thousands of people gathered.
Nine out of ten of these warriors had angry expressions and looked unwilling, but under the threat of life, they still had to participate in maintaining the operation of the great formation. They were miserable but didn’t dare to have any resistance, because all those who resisted were killed by those guys in black clothes.
The origin of these people is unknown, but each of them has amazing strength and is simply not something that the warriors of the Tongxuan Continent can resist.
There were less than ten men in black all standing aside with their hands behind their backs. Only a youth was sitting on a grand master chair, and there were two beautiful girls serving him. Those two girls didn’t know where they were caught from. When serving him, they looked scared and worried that they would be punished for making mistakes.
The youth was holding an ancient teapot in his hand, with his eyes half closed, looking leisurely and carefree. But from time to time, a ray of burst out from those eyes constantly flowing among the thousand enslaved people.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he stretched out a finger and pointed in one direction: “Bring that woman here.”
As soon as these words came out, the two girls standing beside him trembled, and both showed expressions of panic. Looking at each other, their two pairs of beautiful eyes were full of worried expressions.
The youth observed their expressions, glanced at the two maids, and snorted coldly: “It seems that you know something.”
The two girls were suddenly shocked. With a plop sound, they knelt on the ground, their delicate bodies trembling, and they don’t dare to say a word.
“Hmph, that woman deliberately wore loose clothes and smeared her face with dust to cover up her figure and appearance? But does she think she can escape this young master’s eyes? This young master has seen countless women, and can tell at a glance whether she is a top-quality product… Judging from your expressions, that woman’s identity in your Heavenly Military Mansion is probably extraordinary, otherwise what are you worried about?”
The young man spoke eloquently, making the two young girls break out in cold sweat on their foreheads. One of the girls summoned up the courage to say: “Young master, that woman is actually extremely ugly and unbearable to look at. Young master, don’t bother with her anymore. Can’t this servant girl serve you well?”
While speaking, she squeezed out a charming smile. Because of her fear, that smile was slightly stiff, but it was even more pitiful.
A lecherous smile appeared on the corner of the young man’s mouth, and he stretched out a hand and hooked the chin of this young girl.
The young girl didn’t dare to move.
With a pop… sound, the young man slapped out, and the young girl suddenly let out a miserable cry and flew out far away.
“Does this young master need you to tell him what to do?” The young man snorted coldly, with a look of displeasure on his face.
Then, he smiled and looked at the other young girl kneeling in front of him and said lightly: “Before you make a move, you are already dead!”
The second young girl’s delicate body trembled, and the power she had secretly gathered suddenly dissipated, and she no longer dared to move the slightest.
She understood that the strength gap between her people and this youth was far too great. Otherwise, the entire Heavenly Demon Mansion wouldn’t have been wiped out and enslaved without any power to resist.
A hint of despair emerged in her beautiful eyes.
Just at this time, the woman who was originally staying in the array to maintain the operation of the array was brought in the front of the youth by a man in black.
This woman was wearing extremely loose clothes, and her face was a mess, so it was impossible to tell whether she was beautiful or not, or whether her figure was good or not. However, those eyes were extremely bright and energetic, as if they could speak, attracting attention.
“Let me go, you bastards!” The woman continued to struggle. But with her cultivation level of the Transcendent Realm, how could she break free from the restraint of the man in black in the Saint King Realm?
The youth looked at the woman with a smile, carefully staring at her face and then circulated on her body. That aggressive gaze made the woman feel extremely uncomfortable all over, and she couldn’t help but grit her teeth and glare at the other party.
“Good, very good!” The youth laughed loudly. “Finally, I found one that can catch this young master’s eye a little. Do you want to know how you were targeted by this young master?”
The woman didn’t say a word, and the anger in her beautiful eyes almost condensed into substance.
The youth didn’t care at all and said indifferently, “Because the stupidity of your companions betrayed you. Their cultivation levels are clearly a bit higher than yours, but they are actually very respectful to you. If I’m not wrong, your status in the Heavenly Courtyard should not be low, right? Or are you the daughter of your courtyard master?”
His voice wasn’t loud, but it reached everyone’s ears, immediately making a group of experts from the Heavenly Courtyard ashamed and angry. They never expected that it was because of their attitude towards the young lady that she was targeted by this bastard.
If they had known this earlier, how could they not have been more careful?
