Chapter 806
byThe barrier and formation of the Nine Peaks were arranged and perfected by the previous Holy Lords of the Nine Heavens Holy Land over countless years. These previous Holy Lords were all powerhouses at the Third-Order Saint Realm, so the things they arranged naturally wouldn’t be too bad.
Except for the special means by a few Saint Realm experts like Zhang Ao and Cao Guan few attacks could break through the barrier and reach inside.
If this barrier wasn’t broken, there was simply no way to fight the people of the Nine Heavens Holy Land head-on.
Realizing this, Cao Guan had a face full of unwillingness.
Hearing him say this, Yang Kai just smiled and snapped his fingers over there, looking leisurely.
No one knew what this action of his meant.
But the next moment, the shrill cries of agony rang out one after another beside Cao Guan. Dozens of elites from the Battle Soul Palace collapsed to the ground in an instant, dead. Among them were even two or three Transcendent Realm powerhouses.
Huge panic spread instantly, and everyone couldn’t help but move away from Cao Guan some distance.
Even Cao Guan himself couldn’t help but feel a chill all over his body.
No one knew what kind of means Yang Kai had actually used to be able to kill dozens of elites from the Battle Soul Palace silently in an instant.
Under the eyes of everyone, he didn’t perform martial skills or secret treasures nor did he release his spiritual power. It seemed that just his that action was the death-knell sound.
This unknown means brought huge panic to people, for fear that the next one to suffer would be themselves.
“Whether I have the ability or not is not up to you to say.” Yang Kai snorted coldly.
He originally didn’t want to use the Soul-Eating Insects lurking outside, but if he continued to fight like this, he also felt very strained.
His true essence was extremely abundant, but with his mind connected to the entire Nine Peaks Great Array, the energy he expended was really too great. He could only use this kind of means to intimidate.
The Soul-Eating Insects could kill all warriors below the Saint Realm. Killing dozens of people was naturally no problem.
Yang Kai didn’t release too many of them either. These insects were not very obedient. The warriors who came here were not all determined to be enemies of the Nine Heavens Holy Land. If he really wanted to wipe them all out, it would be very difficult to end.
Moreover, he also saw Yun Xuan and Ruan Xinyu, these two women here.
In case there was any accidental injury, it would be bad.
The panic was still spreading. After dozens of elites of the Battle Soul Palace fell, no one dared to act rashly anymore. They all looked at Yang Kai in extreme astonishment, the light in their eyes flickering, and their moods were extremely complicated.
The power and means Yang Kai displayed deeply shocked everyone, making them realize that even if they could capture the Nine Heavens Holy Land this time, they might have to pay an extremely heavy price.
“Wu Jie, why have you been watching and not making a move?” Zhang Ao suddenly turned his head and roared in one direction. In that direction, Wu Jie of the Nether Sect was standing quietly, and from beginning to end, he had no intention of intervening. Wrapped in a green aura, he stood there like an outsider.
Wu Jie chuckled a few times: “I’m just looking for an opportunity.”
“Then have you found it?” Zhang Ao asked in a deep voice.
Wu Jie slowly shook his head.
“I’ll settle the score with you later!” Zhang Ao snorted coldly, looking very displeased. Ever since just now, it was his Broken Mysterious Mansion and Battle Soul Palace that had been fighting against Yang Kai. Although there were also some hot-blooded powerhouses coming to help, most people seemed to be just watching.
Moreover, Yang Kai’s attacks were all aimed at the positions of their two forces, and he didn’t have the slightest intention to attack anyone else.
This made Zhang Ao realize that there might not be a chance to break the Nine Heavens Holy Land today. If this dragged on any longer, once people’s hearts became scattered, perhaps the Nine Heavens Holy Land would counterattack!
That old guy Xu Hui wasn’t easy to deal with either. Having dealt with him for so many years, Zhang Ao and he knew each other very well.
“Let you be unrestrained for a few more days. Another day, this old man will come to experience your high skills. Next time I come you won’t be so lucky.” Zhang Ao said coldly. After that, he waved his hand and led the people of the Broken Mysterious Mansion to quickly withdraw.
“Next time anyone dares to come again, we won’t be so polite.” Yang Kai sarcastically said coldly.
“So arrogant…” Ji Yan, who had witnessed the whole battle a few miles away, couldn’t help but sigh. “After all, he is young and full of vigor!”
Yun Cheng, theAlliance Leader of the Solo Pride Alliance, smiled and said, “Let’s go. There’s nothing for us to do today. Let’s withdraw from here first.”
“Okay.” Ji Yan nodded and followed Yun Cheng’s footsteps.
Standing at the edge of the barrier, Yang Kai quietly released his spiritual sense, searching for a figure in the crowd. After a while, the spiritual sense was transmitted over.
The young man who was retreating with the crowd changed his complexion, and then quickly covered it up without a trace and left in a hurry.
In a short while, the music dispersed and the people left, leaving only a pool of blood and corpses on the ground.
Yang Kai let out a soft breath and felt a hint of fatigue.
However, the elders and protectors of the Holy Land were like winners of a great victory. Each of them was high-spirited and looked at Yang Kai with excited eyes, full of admiration and respect.
“Holy Lord… Can I call you that now?” Xu Hui said while observing Yang Kai’s reaction. After finding that he didn’t mean to deny it, he couldn’t help but feel a little relieved and laughed heartily, “The Holy Lord is really extraordinary. In just a few days, he was able to connect his whole body’s energy, spirit and qi with the Nine Peaks. It really makes Xu admire.”
“Yes, yes…” The beautiful woman Yu Ying nodded repeatedly, and her beautiful eyes were full of excitement. “I thought the Holy Land was bound to be doomed today, but I didn’t expect it to be so easy to drive them back.”
“Don’t be too optimistic.” Yang Kai frowned. “Today they underestimated the power of the Holy Land, so they suffered a big loss. It won’t be so easy to deal with next time.”
Hearing him say this, everyone fell silent for a moment. Xu Hui said, “With the Holy Lord here, relying solely on the assistance of the Nine Peaks can resist them. Why…”
“How could I have such great ability?” Yang Kai slowly shook his head. “You may not know that the power of the Nine Peaks is not inexhaustible. I only understood this point after reaching a connection with the Nine Peaks today.”
“Ah?” What do you mean by this? Xu Hui and the others were shocked.
“At most, I can only use the power I used today one more time, and then the mysterious power contained in the Nine Peaks will be drained. At that time, it will no longer be able to provide an increase to my attacks. Moreover, once the power of the Nine Peaks dries up, the barrier and the formation will collapse on their own.” Yang Kai explained.
Everyone immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.
Today, they were able to force Zhang Ao and the others to retreat entirely because of the Nine Peaks. If there was no such assistance, Yang Kai would still only be a Transcendent Two-layer Realm.
Plus their six Saint Realm powerhouses, how could they resist so many people and forces?
However, after today’s battle, I think about half of the people they lured and bewitch ed will probably leave. After all, no one would be willing to be an enemy of a force that may rise again.
“Half is fine. If the remaining people dare to come again, then they will truly be the enemies of my Holy Land.”
“That’s right. Next time, we won’t hold back anymore.” Yang Kai sneered again and again. In this battle, all his attacks were only aimed at the Battle Soul Palace and the Po Xuan Mansion, and not even the Nether Sect, which remained inactive, was targeted.
It was precisely to convey a clear message to those people – as long as they don’t make enemies of the Holy Land, they won’t be attacked.
If they still dare to invade know that Yang Kai’s message, then it can only be said that they really want to wipe out the Holy Land.
“How are the arrangements for the disciples?” Yang Kai asked.
“Everything has been arranged properly!” Xu Hui nodded seriously, but soon became uneasy again and hesitated; “Holy Master, do we really have to temporarily give up the Nine Peaks?”
“Yes.” Yang Kai nodded. “I’ve already made an agreement with the Great Venerable of the Monster Race. There’s no way to go back on it now… The Holy Land should avoid their sharp edge for the time being. Let the Monster Race deal with those people. If people die, they will only count the accounts on the Monster Race. Otherwise, the Holy Land will establish many, many enemies.”
“That’s true,” Xu Hui nodded said gloomily.
This time, no matter what, the Holy Land won’t have it easy. If they stay and fight those people, even if they win, they will form countless grudges. At this time of internal and external troubles, it’s not good for the development of the Holy Land. If they lose, not only will they suffer heavy losses, but they may even have to abandon their foundation.
And judging from the strength and numbers of the other side, it is very likely that they will lose.
Rather than this, it is better to temporarily withdraw, bide one’s time, and leave this mess to the Monster Race to clean up.
Anyway, humans and demons are irreconcilable. It doesn’t matter how many humans the demons kill.
“Holy Lord, I still want to ask, where exactly is the place you mentioned that can accommodate several thousand disciples?” Xu Hui looked at Yang Kai eagerly.
“I’ll tell you after I handle this matter…” Yang Kai smiled hehe. “Well, you guys go and notify those disciples first and prepare to evacuate. I’ll go out for a while.”
“Going out at this time?” Xu Hui was shocked when he heard this. He didn’t ask what Yang Kai was going to do, but just said, “Let Elder Yuying and the others go with you.”
“No need. They have withdrawn now and won’t come back for a while. Moreover, I’m just going to meet someone and there’s no danger. That’s it.” With these words, Yang Kai’s figure flickered and then disappeared from everyone’s sight, and even his spiritual thoughts couldn’t be sensed.
Escape Heaven Shadow! The only movement technique among the Nine Heavens Divine Skills.
Xu Hui and the others looked at each other, shook their heads and smiled bitterly. They didn’t know who Yang Kai would go out to meet at this critical moment.
Dozens of miles away, the numerous forces and martial artists who attacked the Nine Heavens Holy Land returned dejectedly, with gloomy faces and worried expressions.
Many people were deep in thought, wondering if they should get involved in this muddy water.
Facing the Nine Heavens Holy Land, a once behemoth, so many of their forces had to join forces to barely contend with it. Once this matter was not successful and the Nine Heavens Holy Land turned around, then what awaited them would definitely be endless retaliation.
How could their not-so-strong forces withstand such retaliation? I’m afraid they would be disintegrated in an instant.
Zhang Ao and Cao Guan looked particularly unhappy.
In a tent, the two of them and Wu Jie sat down. Without saying a word, they all pointed the finger at Wu Jie and cursed him fiercely, scolding him for just watching the show today and not taking action to help, which made the two of them lose face greatly.
Wu Jie didn’t care either, but just chuckled strangely, which made Zhang Ao and Cao Guan even more furious.
