Chapter 2215

Yang Kai followed behind Bai Lu and climbed up along that winding staircase all the way.

After walking for a full quarter of an hour or so, the staircase finally came to an end. What was presented in front of them was another large hall. The side door of the hall was opened along the tree trunk, and there was light shining in from the outside.

Yang Kai glanced outside and found that this place was already several thousand zhang above the ground. Everything below the ground was hazy and not very clear.

And after arriving here, a gaze as solid as substance immediately locked onto him.

Yang Kai immediately became vigilant and turned his head to look over. He saw a middle-aged man wearing simple clothes, with an ordinary appearance and black hair, standing there with his hands behind his back, looking at him with a smile.

And Yuan Fei, who had come here earlier, was standing aside respectfully, with a cautious expression.

The master of Heavenly Monster Mountain！ This thought suddenly popped up in Yang Kai’s mind. Although he couldn’t see anything that made his eyes shine from this middle-aged man, and the other party was just like an ordinary person in the crowd, when he saw him, Yang Kai could still be sure that the other party was the Third-Order Emperor Realm powerhouse who had just taken action, and also the master of this Heavenly Monster Mountain. Similarly, he was also Zi Li’s father！

Yang Kai showed a solemn expression and bowed with fists in hand, saying, “Junior Yang Kai greets senior！”

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man nodded slightly, but didn’t speak. Instead, he slowly raised one hand and pointed at Yang Kai from a distance.

Before Yang Kai could figure out what this action meant, his face suddenly changed drastically. He hurriedly activated the power of his Divine Soul and turned it into an invisible defense, blocking in front of him.

With a soft hissing sound, a burst of strength rushed towards him and easily broke through Yang Kai’s defense.

Yang Kai was greatly shocked and quickly tapped his feet and retreated backwards.

But soon, he stopped his figure, because he found that the opponent’s attack was retractable. It just broke through his defense and didn’t do anything more. In other words, this move of his didn’t pose any threat to him at all. It seemed to be just a test…

“What does senior mean by this？” Yang Kai asked with a frown. Why would a strong person at the third level of Emperor Senior Realm test him like this？ His cultivation level could be seen at a glance by the other party.

“Huh？” The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows. Looking at Yang Kai with some doubts, he said, “Why don’t you use your soul secret treasure？”

Yang Kai replied, “Previously, when I encountered a strong enemy, the secret treasure was destroyed and I can no longer use it…”

Before he could finish speaking, Yang Kai suddenly widened his eyes and stared at the middle-aged man in extreme surprise. He said curiously, “Senior you…”

At this moment, he suddenly came back to his senses. The words of the other party actually mentioned the four words’soul secret treasure’！

This is not something that a martial artist traveling in the world can understand The soul secret treasure is something that only martial artists from the outside world have In the world. because of the lack of materials for refining secret treasures, they can never have such a thing, let alone know about it.

But the name of something that he shouldn’t know came out of the mouth of this middle-aged man.

How could this not surprise Yang Kai.

“What？” The middle-aged man smiled slightly. “Do you think this seat knows nothing？”

Although these words were rather baffling, Yang Kai understood what he meant. For a moment, he was stunned on the spot and didn’t know how to reply.

“But it seems…” The middle-aged man nodded slightly and said, “You really aren’t from this world.”

Yang Kai took a deep breath and bowed, saying, “Senior has sharp eyes. But… how did senior…”

The middle-aged man smiled slightly. With a wave of his hand, a long sword suddenly appeared in his hand. The long sword was flowing with light and full of energy fluctuations, looking extremely extraordinary.

This long sword was not condensed by his soul energy at all, but was truly…

“Soul secret treasure？” Yang Kai’s eyes almost popped out. He could hardly believe what he saw.

In this world of spiritual travel, there was actually a warrior who took out a soul secret treasure, and it was a soul secret treasure of not low grade. Judging from the fluctuations emanating from the long sword, this sword had actually reached the level of an Emperor Treasure. On the sword body, the Emperor’s might was pervasive and the Emperor’s will was overflowing, complementing the middle-aged man’s ownsmell.

And beside him, Yuan Fei and Bai Lu also stared closely at the long sword, looking dazzled.

As the master of Tianyao Mountain, the two naturally knew that the adult had a treasure in his hand but even with their qualifications, they didn’t have the opportunity to see it often.

In the past few hundred years, the two of them have only seen it twice. Counting this time today, it’s only three times.

Neither Yuan Fei nor Bai Lu knows exactly what this treasure is or where it came from. They only know that it is extremely sharp and has extremely powerful might. Compared to the weapons they condensed with their own soul power, it is much stronger.

They can’t figure out why, in the face of Yang Kai, a human they met for the first time, the adult would take out this treasure and show it.

Moreover, what exactly did the adult mean by the sentence ‘not a person from this world’ before？

Looking at each other, they both found the doubts in each other’s eyes.

“That’s right, this is a soul secret treasure.” The middle-aged man nodded when he heard this, and pointed like a sword, gently wiping it on the sword edge. Under the energy resonance, the sword edge trembled continuously, as if it had its own spirituality.

“Eight hundred years ago, I obtained it from a guy named Wen Zishan.” The middle-aged man smiled slightly, and while speaking, he closely watched the change in Yang Kai’s expression, and said slowly： “I wonder if you recognize him.”

“So it’s Hall Master Wen…” The corner of Yang Kai’s mouth twitched, and he suddenly understood something.

Because according to what Wen Zishan said, eight hundred years ago was the time when he came to Qingyang Temple, discovered the mirror, and stayed in Qingyang Mountain Range.

At that time, Wen Zishan probably also entered the Divine Wander Mirror and traveled here for a while. He met the middle-aged man. As for how this secret treasure ended up in the middle-aged man’s hands, Yang Kai had no idea.

“He was a very interesting fellow…” The middle-aged man said, a hint of reminiscence on his face. “He hit it off with me at first sight and we talked very happily. This long sword was also won by me in a bet with him. However, according to your statement, at that time this secret treasure was only of the top-grade Dao Source level. After being refined and nurtured by this office for hundreds of years, it was able to be promoted to an Emperor Treasure.”

Yang Kai said thoughtfully, “It seems that senior knows a lot about the outside world.”

The middle-aged man laughed loudly and said, “I am just poured a few jars of Monkey God Wine for Wen Zishan, and he almost told what color his underpants were. Do you think I know a lot?

After hearing this, Yang Kai’s face twitched for a while. However, in this way, he completely relaxed and didn’t have to worry about his safety anymore, because this middle-aged man had no ill intentions towards him, and he also knew Hall Master Wen and knew more about the outside world. Just because of this, it was impossible for him to make a move on himself.

“Dare to ask senior what is your name?” Yang Kai corrected his expression and bowed asked.

“My name is Yi Quan!” When the middle-aged man answered, he had already put away that secret treasure and then said, “I heard from Yuan Fei that you saved my son’s life outside?”

“It was just a coincidence.” Yang Kai told the truth.

“That’s still a life-saving grace.” As Yi Quan spoke, he reached out and grabbed a small figure from behind his back.

Yang Kai fixed his eyes and saw that it was actually a child about two years old, wearing a short shirt and shorts, with a chubby little face and small hands and legs exposed, as tender as white lotus roots.

This was a little boy with a tuft of hair standing straight up on his head, looking extremely cute.

“Little Purple Civet？” Yang Kai looked at the other party and raised his eyebrows.

The little guy seemed a bit shy. After taking a look at Yang Kai, he quickly hid behind Yi Quan, grabbed the corner of his father’s clothes with his small hands, and peeked out.

Seeing this situation, Yang Kai was sure that he was Purple Civet.

However, now he was undoubtedly too embarrassed to be as close to Yang Kai as before.

“What did Daddy tell you？” Seeing this, Yi Quan reached out and patted the back of Little Purple Civet’s head, making him stagger and flash out from behind.

Beside them, Bai Lu showed a look of distress when she saw this.

The little guy pouted, and it was obvious that he was on the verge of crying.

“Hmph？” Yi Quan snorted softly.

This sound scared Purple Civet so much that he trembled. He quickly suppressed his crying, sniffed, and looked at Yang Kai, babbling a few times.

“You’re welcome. You’ve also helped me a lot. If anything, I should be the one thanking you.” Yang Kai looked at the little fellow and said softly.

“A life-saving grace should be remembered for a lifetime and never forgotten！” While speaking, Yi Quan stroked the little fellow’s head and said earnestly, “Remember this！”

Zi Li hurriedly nodded.

“Bai Lu.” Yi Quan called out again.

“This subordinate is here.” Bai Lu quickly took a step forward.

“Take the young master out to play. Watch him carefully and don’t let him run around again. I have… some words to talk to this little brother.” Yi Quan ordered.

“Yes！” Bai Lu replied, and then beckoned to the little fellow.

This time, he was very obedient and trotted obediently in front of Bai Lu, stretching out his little hand for her to hold. Before leaving, he also looked back at Yang Kai, and Yuan Fei followed suit and went out.

After leaving the great hall, Yuan Fei asked Bai Lu in a low voice, “Did you understand what the adult said？”

Bai Lu shook her head and turned to look at him, saying, “You understood？”

Yuan Fei had a black line on his face and said, “If you don’t understand, how could I understand？ However… I vaguely remember that eight hundred years ago, there was a human guy who came here, talked with the adult for three days and three nights, and then left.”

“Well, I also remember. That guy was very strong, no less than the adult.” Bai Lu also nodded slightly.

“Strange, strange. What is a Secret Treasure of Soul？ Why does it seem from what the adult said that the human youngster just now also has one？ But why don’t even powerful experts like you and me know about it？”

“Why worry about it for no reason？ If it was something that we could know, the adult would naturally tell us.” Bai Lu glared at him.

“That’s true.” Yuan Fei nodded.

“Yayaya…” The little fellow being led by Bai Lu suddenly interjected at this time.

Upon hearing this, Bai Lu was shocked and said, “Young master, you mean that the youngster named Yang Kai used a Secret Treasure of Soul during the battle just now？”

“Yayaya！” The little fellow nodded vigorously.

“What does it look like? Quickly tell us.” Yuan Fei immediately perked up and kept asking.

Who knew that the little fellow glanced at him, actually snorted coldly, and turned his head to the side, looking like he didn’t want to pay attention to him at all.
