Chapter Index

During the day, the Sand Sea is unbearably hot, but at night, it is ice-cold and bone-chilling.

In the middle of the full moon, waves of visible cold air, like ghosts, drilled out from the sand grains, carrying a heart-piercing coldness.

Looking around, the entire Sand Sea seemed to be covered with a thin layer of ice, crystal clear. The moonlight slanted down and was then reflected back, making everything look so magnificent and beautiful.

In a certain position of the Sand Sea, An Ling’er held Yang Kai in her arms, her True Yuan surging, using her body temperature to warm Yang Kai’s gradually cooling body.

Yang Kai seemed to have really died. Since escaping from the Little Mysterious Realm during the day, he hadn’t moved even once until now. At the beginning, there was still some body temperature and the sound of a heartbeat coming, but as time passed, his body became colder and colder, and his vitality became more and more subtle, like a candle flame in the wind and rain, with the danger of being extinguished at any time.

An Ling’er carefully guarded, not leaving for a moment.

This was the future master of the Holy Land. Even if An Ling’er died, she didn’t dare to let him suffer any damage. There was a look of determination and unexpected strength on her beautiful face.

Sha sha sha…

A sound came from not far away. An Ling’er suddenly raised her head and saw Gou Chi, who had left to scout the way before, walking back. Even though he was as strong as him, in the night of the Sand Sea, he couldn’t resist the pressing cold. He was shivering while running, and his hair was full of ice slag.

A vigilant look flashed in An Ling’er’s beautiful eyes. When Yang Kai was intact, she had also had a lot of contact with Gou Chi and knew that this Demon Race person was somewhat lecherous and a rogue. Now that Yang Kai’s life and death were unknown, she felt that she had to be on guard against Gou Chi.

However, when she thought that the other party’s True Yuan and Divine Sense had all been placed under a restriction, An Ling’er relaxed a lot.

“How is he?” Gou Chi came to An Ling’er and asked hurriedly.

An Ling’er slowly shook her head.

“It seems that he is really hopeless.”

“Don’t allow you to say that, he’s still alive!” An Ling’er was immediately a bit annoyed with her almond shaped eyes wide open.

Alright, alright, I won’t say it. But things are unpredictable, it’s better for you to have some psychological preparation. Sigh… “Why is Brother Yang’s life so bitter?” Gou Chi sighed. Seeing that Yang Kai had suffered such bad luck in order to help them escape, Gou Chi’s address for him also became much more affectionate. “If he can come back to life, that would be the best. I still want to take him to Qingliao City and give him a good treat.”

While speaking, he plopped down on the sand surface, looking pained. Suddenly, he hehe lowly laughed again and said, “I found that you humans are quite interesting. I’ve caught quite a few humans before, but none of them are as amazing as Brother Yang. Those guys, as soon as they encounter danger, they kneel on the ground and kowtow to beg for mercy. Their faces are so ugly. Brother Yang still has backbone, just like our demons, with blood and courage, rather die than submit. This is a real man.”

Gou Chi boasted for a while, which instead An Ling’er’s attention. She quietly glanced at him and softly said, “What happened to those humans you caught?”

Gou Chi made a slashing gesture downward in a nonchalant manner. An Ling’er’s pretty face turned black, and she immediately turned her head and didn’t talk to him anymore.

The sand sea at night is extremely quiet, only some scorpion-like creatures are shuttling through the sand. Gou Chi casually catches a few, feasts on them with great relish, making a clicking sound.

While eating, he comments, as if it is the most delicious food in the world.

In the second half of the night, the sand sea becomes even colder and dreary.

The last bit of vitality left in Yang Kai is also rapidly disappearing. Noticing this, both An Ling’er and Gou Chi can’t help but raise their hearts and nervously pay attention to him secretly.

In just half an hour or so, that vitality suddenly vanishes.

An Ling’er’s beautiful eyes lose their luster in an instant, and her delicate body can’t help but tremble.

Gou Chi also heaves a heavy sigh, lamenting that the heavens are jealous of the talented and so on.

Just as the two are feeling sad, a surging vitality suddenly bursts out from Yang Kai’s body. This vitality is like a raging flame, quickly becoming. His body, which was originally extremely cold, suddenly becomes scorching hot. True yuan flows rapidly, shuttling through the meridians, making a gurgling sound.

Whoosh…

With a soft sound, Yang Kai’s whole body catches fire. The true yuan that penetrates his body wraps around him, directly melting the nearby sand surface into magma.

An Ling’er is startled and quickly evades. Even so, she is almost scalded.

Gou Chi also stared dumbfounded at Yang Kai at this moment, a scorpion’s tail quietly slipping from the corner of his mouth.

With a whoosh, Yang Kai spat out a mouthful of dark blood mist, the true essence that burst out of his body quickly retracted, and he stood up quickly. He looked around blankly. After seeing An Ling’er and Gou Chi with expressions like they had seen a ghost, he then heaved a heavy sigh, and his vigilant spiritual consciousness gradually converged.

Slowly sitting on the ground, Yang Kai adjusted his heartbeat and breathing. The scenes before he fainted in his mind flashed by like a flowing stream, and he quickly understood the current situation.

There was no abnormality in his body, but the pain in his spiritual consciousness sea was extremely severe. Involuntarily, Yang Kai groaned, covering his head, and his body trembled in spasms.

It took a long time to gradually stabilize, but the pain in his mind did not decrease at all.

“Where is this?” Yang Kai raised his head and asked in a low voice. His face was distorted and hideous due to the unbearable pain looking terrifying.

“The sand sea of the Demon Frontier.” Gou Chi was stunned for a moment and quickly replied. Immediately, he asked with concern: “Brother Yang, are you… “alive or dead now?”

Yang Kai raised his eyelids and looked at him feebly: “What do you think?”

“Hahaha!” Gou Chi laughed heartily. “I knew you wouldn’t die so easily.”

“Who just said he was hopeless?” An Ling’er cast a cold glance at him.

Gou Chi’s face suddenly turned embarrassed and he fell silent.

“How are you feeling now?” An Ling’er turned her gaze to Yang Kai and asked nervously.

“Not so good.” Yang Kai slowly shook his head. His entire spirit was still in turmoil and extremely unstable.

“Then you should rest quickly.”

Yang Kai nodded slightly and stopped talking. He sat cross-legged on the ground, calmed his mind, and his spiritual body into the sea of consciousness to check it carefully.

The entire sea of consciousness was in a state of depression. The originally burning flame-like seawater stored here was almost dried up, which was a sign of excessive overdrawn of spiritual power.

In the world of the sea of consciousness, it was also very chaotic. Sometimes strong winds blew suddenly, and sometimes there were flashes of lightning and thunder. It seemed to have reached the limit and was about to collapse at any moment.

Yang Kai knew the reason for all this. It was entirely because he had put the divine tree into the space of the black book.

He never expected that just doing this would make him walk through the gate of hell and almost lose his life.

Before, the things he put into the space of the black book were all very small in volume. The largest one was only one percent of the divine tree at most. So even if it consumed spiritual power, not much was consumed.

But this time, Yang Kai’s spiritual power was directly exhausted before he could put the divine tree into the space of the black book, and his entire body collapsed instantly.

After all, the Divine Tree is different from the things put in before. Not only is it huge in volume, but it is also filled with unimaginable energy. It is understandable that such a price needs to be paid.

However, it’s worth it!

Being able to take the Divine Tree away, Yang Kai feels that even if he pays a more tragic price, it is still worthwhile. In this way, he doesn’t have to worry about not being able to fulfill the promise he made with the Divine Tree.

Yang Kai is still a relatively trustworthy person.

The depleted spiritual consciousness power can be cultivated and replenished again. With the assistance of the Six-Colored Warm Divine Lotus, it won’t take long for the spiritual consciousness power to recover to its peak state.

Moreover, in this incident, the Six-Colored Warm Divine Lotus also played an indelible role. If it weren’t for it protecting Yang Kai’s soul from being extinguished, I’m afraid Yang Kai would really be dead.

Thinking of this, Yang Kai felt a burst of joy.

The spiritual body of the soul slowly withdrew from the sea of consciousness and then escaped into the Black Book Space. Just as he entered, Yang Kai was a little unable to open his eyes due to the dazzling golden light everywhere.

The Divine Tree is now located here. Its roots, branches, and leaves are all like gold, exuding a bright light, making the Black Book Space shine with golden splendor.

And the scorching breath emitted from its body suddenly reduced Yang Kai’s pain a lot. It was warm and extremely comfortable.

It seemed that it had perceived Yang Kai’s arrival. The branches and leaves of the Divine Tree were dancing, and from the position of the tree heart, there came bursts of calling spiritual thoughts.

Yang Kai smiled slightly and his spiritual soul body rushed into the heart of the Divine Tree. The Divine Tree’s spiritual soul immediately wrapped around him.

It should also know that Yang Kai was extremely weak at the moment, so it didn’t pull his spiritual soul around recklessly like before, but carefully wrapped Yang Kai up.

The next moment, powerful streams of energy poured in from its spiritual soul, quickly replenishing Yang Kai’s dried-up spiritual consciousness power.

Yang Kai was overjoyed and had no intention of stopping it. He stopped there extremely comfortably, Youdaoplaceholder0 the Divine Tree to exert its means.

In just about an hour, Yang Kai’s weak appearance from before completely changed and he became full of energy. His dried up also once again returned to its previous abundant state.

All kinds of hidden injuries were completely restored.

After communicating with the Divine Tree for a while and informing it that he might have to stay in this space for a short time, after getting its response, Yang Kai left. However, he also promised it that as long as he was free, he would come in and accompany it.

The Divine Tree was reluctant to part with him but didn’t stop him.

Opening his eyes again, the darkness had receded and daytime had arrived once more.

Youdaoplaceholder0 and meditating for a while, Yang Kai let out a soft sigh. He estimated that before he reached the Saint Realm, it would be very dangerous for him to take the Divine Tree out of the Black Book Space. Only when he reached the Saint Realm could he do this without suffering any damage.

But he wasn’t in a hurry either. Now that he was in the Demon Frontier, even if he released the Divine Tree, there was nowhere to place it.

He had to find a better place for it. The Qixiu Peak of the Tianxiao Sect was a good place.

Seeing Yang Kai open his eyes, Gou Chi and An Ling’er, who had been paying attention to him all night, also relaxed their expressions.

“Little brother, why do I feel that you have completely recovered all of a sudden?” Gou Chi was slightly curious. Just over an hour ago, Yang Kai still looked half-dead. Even if his recovery ability was fast, it wouldn’t be like this, and Gou Chi hadn’t seen him take any pills.

It was really strange.
