Chapter 277
byYang Kai stared blankly and suddenly took a deep breath, exclaiming in surprise, “I know who this person is！”
“Who？”
“The Demon Head who was killed here by my sect several hundred years ago!”
The Earth Demon wasn’t clear about the origin of the Lingxiao Pavilion, so Yang Kai briefly recounted it.
Upon hearing that the Dragon Trapping Ravine was split open by a devil with a single sword strike the Earth Demon was greatly excited, and his tone was slightly agitated: His physical body remained unharmed for hundreds of years. This villain had a bit of the style of this old man back then.
Yang Kai was also secretly shocked.
A person had been dead for hundreds of years. Although his flesh and blood had almost dried up, his body still hadn’t been destroyed, and such a strong had been born filling the entire Dragon Trapping Ravine. How powerful must this person has been during his lifetime?
And how powerful must the Lingxiao Pavilion’s master who could slay him had been?
This was already a level that Yang Kai couldn’t hope to reach at present, at least not in a short period of time.
With a shocked expression on his face Yang Kai turned his head to look around and found a deep indentation not far away. He walked over, crouched down, and carefully examined it for a while. His eyes couldn’t help but light up.
This place should be the position where the second disciple of the Sect Master had meditated and cultivated for more than ten years. He had sat here all year round and left these traces here.
In that case, the second disciple of the Sect Master should have spied some mystery from this dead. or perhaps obtained something, so he was able to restore his strength and break free from the trap after more than ten years.
The Sect Master had sealed him in the Dragon Trapping Ravine, but it also led to his achievements.
This was truly the unpredictability of affairs, and no one could say for sure.
“Young Master…” the Earth Demon suddenly shouted, and there was a hint of excitement and anticipation in his voice. “Can you take the secret treasure on this devil’s neck？”
“Of course I will take it！” Yang Kai had long since seen the extraordinariness of that collar. This thing was extremely masculine and yang, a yang-attribute secret treasure that could suppress the demonic qi. Yang Kai himself cultivated the True Yang Art, which had a great degree of compatibility with this secret treasure. How could he let it go?
This secret treasure should have been left behind by Lingxiao Pavilion to suppress the demonic qi on this devil. But after hundreds of years, the second disciple of the Sect Master didn’t know what tricks he had played here. The demonic qi could no longer be suppressed, and this secret treasure would not be able to exert its effect if it was left here.
But whether I take it or not, what does it have to do with you? Yang Kai was suspicious, feeling that the Earth Demon was up to something.
“Hehe…” the Earth Demon laughed sheepishly. “If Young Master can take this secret treasure, this old servant can try to enter this devil’s body.”
“Seize someone else’s body？” Yang Kai’s expression changed slightly.
“No, no, no…” the Earth Demon quickly excuse. “His soul no longer exists, leaving only a body of flesh and blood. My soul entering it cannot be considered seizing someone else’s body.”
“Do you have the confidence？”
“Well, a little. He was also a devil before his death, and there is somewhat the same breath as the old slave, so the old slave wants to try to see if he can drive this body.” The Earth Demon smiled bitterly： “Actually, whether it is seizing someone else’s body or a soul entering someone else’s body, it is not as simple as what the Young Master thinks. A person’s body is like a special container. In principle, this container will only accommodate a specific soul, and it is very difficult for other souls to survive in this container.”
“Then when you saw me back then, you wanted to seize my body without asking？” Yang Kai’s mouth held a strange smile, remembering the events of his adulthood.
The Earth Demon laughed dryly twice： “That was also a last resort. I was sealed for many years, and I just woke up not long ago and then met you, so I just made do. However, even if you didn’t resist at that time, it was mostly impossible to succeed in seizing your body.”
“What would be the consequences then？”
“Your soul would be wiped out by me, and then I would control your body. At most, it could only survive for half a month to a month and then rot and collapse. At that time, the old slave would become a wandering soul between heaven and earth again.” The Earth Demon casually described the consequences after the failure of seizing someone else’s body one by one, and Yang Kai’s face turned pale when he heard it.
Fortunately, the Proud Bones Golden Body played a role that day, otherwise he would really have died in vain.
“And whether the seizing of someone else’s body is successful or not. The old slave’s own soul power will also be consumed a lot, so even the soul of a strong person will not randomly seize someone else’s body. Only when it is very suitable for himself to enter will he take action.” The Earth Demon patiently explained.
“The body of this person in front of us meets your requirements？”
“Yes！ I hope the Young Master can grant my request. If this old slave can control this person’s body, the role I can play will be much greater than it is now, and then I can truly help you.” The Earth Demon also felt ashamed of himself. In the past two years, following Yang Kai, he had not played the role that a ten-thousand-year-old demon should have. Now that he saw this suitable physical body, he was naturally quite tempted.
“Alright, I’m also looking forward to it！” Yang Kai grinned and agreed to the Earth Demon’s request.
Walking up to the body of that devil, Yang Kai reached out and grabbed that chain, infusing true essence into it.
In less than half a day, that chain suddenly turned into a golden stream of light and drilled into Yang Kai’s body.
Yang Kai’s expression was slightly startled.
He had originally thought that refining and collecting such a secret treasure would definitely be a time-consuming matter. He had even prepared to stay here for another one or two months, but he didn’t expect the process to be so simple and easy.
As soon as the chain disappeared, the black flood dragon that had been churning beside the devil’s body seemed to break free from some kind of restraint and Youdaoplaceholder0 out fierce, soaring upwards. Not only that, but demonic energy also continuously surged out from the devil’s body steaming non-stop, and the scene was terrifying.
Yang Kai quickly stabilizes his figure and solemnly ly launches the Soul-Breaking Cone.
The Earth Demon hid inside and drilled towards the devil’s body, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
The fierce and malevolent qi that was churning and surging suddenly slowed down a lot, presumably because the Earth Demon was controlling it.
Yang Kai shouted a few times, but there was no response. However, judging from the reaction of the demonic qi overflow from the body of the devil the Earth Demon should be taking over this body. It’s just not known how long it will take.
This was the Earth Demon’s own battle, and Yang Kai simply couldn’t help.
In desperation, he could only sit cross-legged aside and wait quietly.
In this fierce and malevolent place, Yang Kai couldn’t even cultivate the Soul Confusion Palace. Once the spiritual consciousness left the mind, it would definitely be wiped out. Since the spiritual consciousness couldn’t be used, naturally, it was impossible to capture those fierce qi and malevolent qi.
Bored, Yang Kai took out the chain that he had just taken into his body.
This chain had a great name and he didn’t know what material it was made of. But since it was a secret treasure left by the master of Lingxiao Pavilion to suppress the devil, the grade definitely wouldn’t be too low.
The chain was only about one foot long, and there was a collar at the top, which could just be tied around a person’s neck.
There was a line of small characters inside the collar. When he got closer and took a closer look, Yang Kai muttered： “Demon-Locking Chain！”
This thing might be useless to ordinary people. It was completely a secret treasure aimed at demons and evil spirits.
Looking at this Demon-Locking Chain, Yang Kai was in a daze.
Since the second disciple of the Sect Master was able to spy on the mystery from the devil and thus restore his strength, he must have discovered the existence of the Lock Devil Chain long ago. But he still couldn’t take away this secret treasure. One can imagine the restraint of the Lock Devil Chain on him.
If one finds an opportunity to put this thing around his neck… no matter what kind of evil master he is, it is estimated that all of his true essence will be locked.
This is really a good thing to deal with him！
Thinking of this unknown Martial Uncle who has become the Evil Master, Yang Kai’s expression turned cold and stern.
Ling Taixu has worried about him for more than ten years, and Fourth Master Yang was even severely injured because of this person and has not fully recovered until now.
It can even be said that the reason why Yang Kai himself has a congenital deficiency is entirely because of him.
So even though the two have not met yet, they are already enemies.
Since he is an enemy, Yang Kai naturally doesn’t want him to live a comfortable life.
With a sullen face, Yang Kai took back the Lock Devil Chain into his body and nourished it with his own true essence, waiting for the day when it can exert its real effect.
For several days, the Earth Demon has been integrating with the body of that devil. No matter how Yang Kai called, there was no response.
After the fifth day, the weak voice of the Earth Demon came over： “Young Master…”
“How is it？” Yang Kai asked hurriedly.
“Almost done.” The Earth Demon gasped for breath. Clearly, a lot of his soul power had been used up. Fortunately, the evil and violent qi here was thick, and it could be replenished at any time. “However, this old slave must first take back the demonic qi here. Otherwise, with just the power of this person’s body, it won’t be able to exert much effect.”
“How long will it take？”
“This is very slow. It will take at least a few months.”
“So long… Then I won’t wait for you.” Yang Kai said as he stood up.
“En, Young Master, you go and be busy. This old slave will come and find you after finishing here.”
As he spoke, the Earth Demon had already begun to devour the demonic qi in the Dragon-Trapping Ravine. Those thick and tangible demonic qi seemed to be by something and all drilled into the body of that demonic one after another.
The body of the devil was now like a bottomless pit. No matter how much demonic qi came, it would all be accepted.
Yang Kai was shocked when he saw this and no longer paid attention to him. He activated the Flame of the Sun Wings and directly flew up from the bottom of the Dragon-Trapping Ravine.
The Lingxiao Pavilion was in a state of desolation.
The original few thousand disciples had long since disappeared. Many people left the sect on their own because of the changes in the Dragon-Trapping Ravine and the birth of the evil Lord fearing that they would be implicated. And more people were dispersed by an order from Ling Taixu.
The entire Xiao Pavilion now only had about a hundred people left. These hundred people were all the most key members of the Lingxiao Pavilion and also the most loyal disciples to the sect.
No matter how Ling Taixu tried to persuade them, these people still refused to leave the sect and vowed to live and die with it！
Regarding this, Ling Taixu was also helpless and could only let it be.
At Su Yan’s small attic, Yang Kai’s figure flashed and rushed up. After nearly two months of not seeing each other, Su Yan had successfully advanced to the ninth level of the True Yuan Realm and was preparing to impact the Divine Wander Realm.
While sitting face to face for dual cultivation, Yang Kai listened to Su Yan’s account of the changes in the sect over the past two months.
His heart was also filled with sadness.
Such a large sect was now facing the fate of being dissolved. This result was unacceptable to anyone, but Ling Taixu had no choice. Sooner or later, the origin of the Evil Lord would be discovered. If he didn’t want to implicate those ordinary disciples, the only option was to disperse them first.
