Chapter 667
byAlthough the Soul Searching Technique could spy on someone else’s memories, it wasn’t comprehensive. So unless it was a last resort, Duan Hai and Xu Qi didn’t want to use this method to deal with Yang Kai.
They needed Yang Kai’s active cooperation. Moreover, in their opinion, Yang Kai came from a backwater and was young, so he must not have much scheming.
But after a bout of confrontation, they found that this kid was actually a tough nut to crack, neither soft nor hard, and impervious to persuasion. No matter how they coerce Yang Kai kept the secret of the Coffin Carrier tightly shut and refused to reveal a single word.
What Duan Hai said was also the truth. He didn’t want to offend a promising alchemist like this. If possible, he still very much hoped to absorb Yang Kai into the Thunderbolt Divine Cult.
As long as Yang Kai joined, Duan Hai would have plenty of opportunities to get information from his mouth.
But after realizing that Yang Kai had no such ambition, Duan Hai took decisive action.
Anyway, he was going to leave sooner or later and could never be used by the Thunderbolt. It didn’t matter if he offended him.
What do you want to do with the Coffin Carrier? What benefits can you get from him?” Yang Kai looked at Duan Hai and asked faintly.”
Duan Hai frowned and pondered for a while, then said, “It is said that the Coffin Carrier guards an amazing secret. Whoever can figure out this secret can control a great power.
Yang Kai chuckled. The so-called there is no smoke without fire. Although Duan Hai didn’t know what kind of secret the Coffin Carrier guarded, in a sense, what he said was not wrong.
The Ancient Demon Clan is indeed a huge force. But this race cannot be enslaved by just anyone.
If you know, Young Master Yang, can you reveal a thing or two?” Duan Hai looked over with burning eyes.”
Yang Kai shook his head: “You’ve asked the wrong person. I really don’t know.”
Senior Brother!” Xu Qi obviously lost patience and shouted in a low voice, looking at Duan Hai inquiringly.
Duan Hai nodded slightly and said heavily: “Sorry, Young Master Yang.”
Xu Qi walked over with a ferocious smile and said in a cold voice: If you don’t drink the toast, you’d have to drink the feit. Once I use this soul-searching method your soul may be injured and you may become an idiot! Pray for yourself.”
Yang Kai appropriately showed some panicked expressions, and Xu Qi saw it in his eyes and became even more smug.
Walking in front of Yang Kai, Xu Qi unceremoniously opened a big hand and covered it on top of Yang Kai’s head, and the divine consciousness power of the Transcendent Two-layer Realm surged out violently.
In an instant, Yang Kai’s expression changed.
He originally thought this was an opportunity. The other party had imprisoned his true essence. But in the competition of divine consciousness power, Yang Kai was confident that he would not be inferior to anyone.
As long as this Xu Qi’s soul dares to break into his sea of consciousness, Yang Kai can make him pay the price of his life. The Great Demon God’s World-Destroying Demon Eye can’t even be resisted by a Saint Realm powerhouse, let alone Xu Qi, who is only at the Transcendent Two-layer Realm.
Kill Xu Qi and then use the Demon God Transformation. There might not be no chance to break through the seal on the body. With only Duan Hai, an extraordinary realm cultivator, left, Yang Kai has some confidence in escaping from here.
But when Xu Qi made his move, he realized that the other party’s soul did not rush into his sea of consciousness. Instead, Xu Qi’s spiritual awareness intertwined to form an invisible vortex, generating a huge pulling force, trying to pull his spiritual awareness out of his mind.
In the sea of consciousness, it instantly became magnificent with waves churning, and became extremely restless.
Indescribable pain came over, and Yang Kai’s face instantly became ferocious. The blue veins on his forehead bulged, and his whole body of bones creaked.
That was the pain from the soul, far stronger than the pain on the body by thousands of times.
“Hm?” Xu Qi was also slightly surprised and sneered, “Don’t try to resist. The more you resist, the more uncomfortable you will be. Obediently release the defense of your spiritual awareness and let me extract your memories, and you won’t have to endure such pain.”
His words seemed to contain an invisible force, driving Yang Kai to act according to his intention.
Noticing this, Yang Kai became even more cautious.
“Stubborn!” Xu Qi was furious and increased the output of his spiritual awareness power, and the pulling force also became much stronger.
Although Yang Kai’s spiritual awareness could rival that of a Transcendent Realm cultivator, there was still a certain gap compared to Xu Qi. Moreover, there was also a Duan Hai eyeing him covetously at the side. If this stalemate continued, he would eventually be at Xu Qi’s mercy.
Thinking of this, Yang Kai suddenly gave up his resistance. The power of his spiritual awareness exploded with a boom, transforming into an intangible attack and charging towards Xu Qi.
Xu Qi laughed loudly and said, “Overreaching!”
“Junior Brother, be careful!” Duan Hai’s complexion changed drastically, and he shouted loudly. At this moment, he suddenly noticed a scorchingsmell spreading out. This kind of heat involuntarily made him feel a sense of crisis. He quickly retreated, and Yang Kai’s distance.
Whoosh…
A ball of scorching and bright sparks suddenly exploded in the void. Xu Qi’s proud and ferocious expression instantly froze on his face, and his complexion became extremely painful. He covered his head with both hands and let out a shrill scream.
“The Fire of Spiritual Awareness?” Duan Hai’s eyes widened, looking at Yang Kai in disbelief.
The shrill scream only lasted for a while, and then Xu Qi recovered again.
Just now, in that instant, he was caught off guard and his soul was burned by Yang Kai’s Fire of Spiritual Awareness, inevitably suffering some damage. Fortunately, his spiritual awareness power was stronger than Yang Kai’s, otherwise, the consequences would be worrying.
After coming back to his senses, Xu Qi broke out in a cold sweat.
Almost capsized in the gutter!
Young Master Yang, you actually possess the Fire of Divine Sense?” Duan Hai’s expression was extremely complicated as he stared blankly at Yang Kai and asked in a low voice.”
Yang Kai’s gaze was cold and indifferent, staring at the two of them with resentment and hatred, not answering.
Why didn’t you say so earlier? Duan Hai looked extremely frustrated. “If you had said earlier that you had the Fire of Divine Sense, I would have… sigh…
Saying this, he slowly shook his head and sighed.
If he had known earlier that Yang Kai was a Pill Refiner with the Fire of Divine Sense, Duan Hai would never have offended him so easily and tried to find out the secret of the Coffin Carrier from his mouth.
After all, that secret was only a legend, and no one knew whether the Coffin Carrier was really guarding an astonishing treasure. Duan Hai was also taking a gamble.
But a Pill Refiner with the Fire of Divine Sense was a truly huge fortune!
In today’s world, the top Pill Refiner, the Celestial Burial Old Man, had achieved his current status precisely because he possessed the Fire of Divine Sense!
The Celestial Burial Old Man had supreme prestige among the human, demonic, and monster races. No matter who saw him, they had to be polite and treat him with respect.
If he had known earlier that Yang Kai also possessed the Fire of Divine Sense like the Celestial Burial Old Man, Duan Hai would only have used all his means to win him over. He would have done everything possible to make him join the Thunderbolt Divine Sect. Even if he had to give up the position of Grand Elder, Duan Hai would not hesitate.
What a alchemist with the Divine Sense Flame represents, the powerhouses on the continent all know clearly.
At this moment, Duan Hai regretted it deeply and was filled with chills.
“Senior Brother, the matter has already been done. It’s a bit unrealistic to make peace with him now.” Xu Qi stared at Yang Kai resentfully. Having suffered such a small loss just now, he didn’t dare to easily use the Soul Searching Technique anymore. He didn’t dare to easily touch the Divine Sense Flame.
Duan Hai stared at Xu Qi coldly, wishing he could slap this junior to death!
Speaking of which, when Yang Kai was invited back that day, Duan Hai was also in a good mood, feeling that Yang Kai had a bright future and wanted to cultivate him vigorously. It was precisely because of Xu Qi’s instigation and persuasion that he had evil intentions.
Now that it has come to this point, there is no possibility of resolution.
“I didn’t know he had the Divine Sense Flame either.” Xu Qi looked was depressed. “If I had known…”
“There’s no need to say anything more.” Duan Hai shook his head helplessly and looked at Yang Kai, saying, “Guest Elder Yang, you won’t forgive our actions today, will you?”
“Let me go and I’ll, that today’s matter didn’t happen. How about it?” The corner of Yang Kai’s mouth raised a subtle arc.
Duan Hai slowly shook his head, and with a wave of his hand, he sent out several strands of energy, binding Yang Kai like ropes. He said with regret, “I’m sorry.”
…………
In a dungeon, Yang Kai was imprisoned here.
The dungeon was built with special ores, and there was a mysterious power flowing inside. From time to time, some exquisite runes would flash.
This was a dungeon that was enough to imprison a Transcendent Realm powerhouse. Putting Yang Kai here, Duan Hai and Xu Qi didn’t worry that he would escape either.
His True Yuan was still imprisoned. Yang Kai tried to break through several times but all ended in failure. Moreover, every time he used his True Yuan, his whole body would sting unbearably.
Although he was in a difficult situation, Yang Kai didn’t show any panic.
He had experienced even worse situations than this. Several times he had brushed shoulders with death, but every time he could find an opportunity to turn the corner and be reborn from the dead.
There is always a way when the car reaches the front of the mountain. Yang Kai firmly believed in this and just slowly waited for the right opportunity.
Moreover, Duan Hai and Xu Qi didn’t have the intention to kill him either. After learning that Yang Kai had the Fire of Divine Sense, their attitude towards him had also subtly changed unconsciously.
They probably didn’t know what to do now. Killing him, they couldn’t bear it; keeping him was also a trouble.
A few days passed, and Yang Kai had been living in the dark dungeon all the time, not seeing the sun all day long.
On this day, accompanied by a heavy sound, the door of the dungeon was opened and the light came in. Yang Kai narrowed his eyes and looked out, and his expression suddenly became playful.
A beautiful and tall figure slowly walked in from the outside, came to the front of the dungeon, and looked at Yang Kai with complicated eyes.
Ji Meng!
After a long gaze, Ji Meng then crouched down, put some things she brought into the cell, and said, “I brought you some food. Although these are not necessities, they are all carefully prepared by me, and the taste should be quite good.”
“Did Duan Hai tell you about my matter?” Yang Kai tilted his head and looked at her, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth.
“Yes.” Ji Meng nodded.
“What does he want you to do?”
“Persuade you!” Ji Meng replied in a deep voice, “In the God Sect, only I am relatively familiar with you, so only I can come.”
“Then what are you going to do?”
“Persuade you!”
“Alright, since you come forward, then I reluctantly agree. You go and tell Duan Hai that I can join the Thunder God Sect.” Yang Kai hehe laughed.
Ji Meng shook her head: “Even if you promise like this, he won’t believe it. Do you think he is a child?”
