Chapter Index

After a whole day and night of busy work, everything was arranged properly.

Several thousand disciples of the Holy Land poured into the Holy Tomb, making the gloomy Lesser Mysterious Realm full of vitality.

Although the number of people was not small, the Holy Tomb could accommodate them more than enough.

Xu Hui and the others had also taken precautions and prepared a lot of living materials in advance, which were enough for the disciples of the Holy Land to live inside for a long, long time.

Yang Kai also told them to temporarily put aside some things and concentrate on cultivating here. When the time came, he would naturally let them out again.

Xu Hui and the others readily agreed.

After leaving the Holy Tomb, Yang Kai sat alone on the top of one of the nine peaks, overlooking the huge foundation that had endured for countless years, with a calm heart.

At this moment, the Nine Heavens Holy Land was a silence, and except for him, there was no other figure.

His mind sank, and he silently operated his cultivation technique, waiting quietly.

I don’t know how long it had passed when Yang Kai suddenly opened his eyes, stared in one direction, grinned and smiled, silently and mysteriously.

Zhang Ao and those people had come again. They were cursing and scolding in front of the barrier, bombarding it. The loud noises echoed among the nine peaks, extremely harsh.

Yang Kai’s figure flickered, and when he reappeared, he had already manifested not far in front of Zhang Ao and the others.

Zhang Ao’s eyes shrank, and he shouted sternly, “Kid, you still have the guts to come out. You will surely die today!”

Cao Guan beside him also sneered again and again, “Open the barrier and come out to surrender, and we can spare your life!”

Yang Kai turned a deaf ear, swept around, his gaze fixed on the Du Ao League for a moment, and then quickly shifted away. He said faintly, “Very good. Since you all insist on wanting to be enemies of the Holy Land, then you can ask for more blessings for yourselves.”

Many people looked away with fear in their expressions. On the side of the Du Ao League, Yun Xuan’s expression was even more gloomy.

She had talked with Yun Cheng for a long time the night before and had also relayed the suggestions Yang Kai gave her. But now the Du Ao League was also in a dilemma, and Yun Cheng could only follow Zhang Ao and the others here.

Seeing him again at this moment, Yun Xuan couldn’t help but have a sense of guilt for failing Yang Kai’s kindness.

Where is Xu Hui? Why is there only you, a brat? Zhang Ao keenly perceived something was wrong. The Jiutian Holy Land was too quiet today. There was not only no trace of anyone walking inside, but also the only one who came out to meet the enemy was this new Holy Lord. Xu Hui and the others didn’t show up at all.”

“To deal with you, there is no need for the Great Elder to take action!” Yang Kai curled his lip.

“Arrogant! When I capture you, “let’s see if you can still be so overbearing.” Zhang Ao was completely enraged. He waved his big hand and shouted: “Everyone, there’s no need to hold back. I’ll restrain this brat, and you all work together to break this damn barrier. After it’s done, we’ll share the foundation of the Nine Peaks!”

Hearing him say this, the eyes of many hesitant martial artists immediately burned with passion.

The Nine Heavens Holy Land has profound heritage. I don’t know how many rare treasures, spirit pills and medicines, and profound cultivation techniques and martial skills are stored inside. These things, getting just a little bit of them is a great benefit.

People die for wealth, and birds die for food. Zhang Ao threw out such a temptation, and naturally, it could arouse the fighting spirit of many people.

In an instant, led by Cao Guan and Wu Jie, more than a dozen Saint Realm powerhouses attacked the barrier together. That Zhang Ao still sacrificed his secret treasure, broke through the blockade of the barrier, and attacked Yang Kai. Obviously, as he said, he wanted to restrain Yang Kai’s movements.

Yang Kai chuckled, not having the slightest intention to fight Zhang Ao. His figure drifted back, avoiding his attack. He just watched indifferently with a calm expression, and didn’t even have the thought of taking action to stop them from bombarding the barrier.

Zhang Ao’s heart skipped a beat, and an ominous feeling spontaneously arose. His eyes stared fixedly at Yang Kai, wanting to know what he was up to.

Hiss hiss hiss…

Whoosh whoosh whoosh…

A series of ear-piercing sounds of breaking through the air came out. Countless attacks bombarded the barrier overwhelmingly. To everyone’s surprise, today’s barrier of the Nine Heavens Holy Land seemed as fragile as paper and could not withstand a single blow.

With the joint efforts of many powerful people, after only less than thirty breaths of attack, the barrier that wrapped the nine peaks shattered with a loud bang, making the road ahead of them unobstructed.

Everyone was stunned, seemingly not expecting things to progress so smoothly.

After being stunned for a while, Zhang Ao was overjoyed and shouted angrily: “Boy, see where else you can run!”

As he spoke, he and those dozen or so Saint Realm powerhouses rushed into the nine peaks one after another and surrounded Yang Kai tightly.

Right behind them, those forces gathered here also filed in one after another, for fear that if they ran slowly, the benefits would be snatched away by others.

Yun Cheng, the leader of the Solitary Pride League, had a changing expression. He released his spiritual consciousness and carefully explored inside the nine peaks. After a while, his expression also moved slightly, and he took a step.

Before he could walk out, he felt that his clothes were being pulled by someone. Looking back, he saw Yun Xuan looking at him with a pleading gaze.

“Xuan’er, what’s the matter?” Yun Cheng asked with a frown.

“Daddy… The barrier of the nine peaks has been broken. Let them do the rest. Let’s go back now!” Yun Xuan said, biting her red lip.

“Go back now?” Yun Cheng thought for a while and smiled gently, “Didn’t I tell you carefully the night before? Why are you saying such things again.”

“Father, just trust me, okay? Staying here really won’t do us any good.”

“Yes, Alliance Leader. It’s time to go now, while their attention is attracted by that bastard.” Ruan Xinyu quickly said.

“You also say that?” Yun Cheng looked at Ruan Xinyu thoughtfully. “Do you believe that kid so much?”

The night before, Yun Xuan relayed Yang Kai’s suggestion. Yun Cheng also knew that this new Holy Lord had met his daughter the day before yesterday, but he didn’t take Yang Kai’s suggestion seriously. The gap in strength was too great. Yun Cheng really couldn’t think of any way to make the Nine Heavens Holy Land turn the corner. The only thing they could rely on was the formation and barrier of the Nine Peaks, but now this reliance has also been given up by them.

“Xuan’er, are you reluctant to add insult to injury because of old feelings?” Yun Cheng saw through Yun Xuan’s concerns. “Don’t worry. If he really has the ability to escape this disaster, one more Proud Alliance won’t matter. If he doesn’t have this ability, one less Proud Alliance won’t matter either… But I think he is almost at the end of his rope now. What a pity!”

Yun Cheng let out a sigh. Originally, he had thought that this was a golden opportunity for the Du Ao Alliance to expand and rise. After all, his daughter had a deep relationship with the Holy Lord of the Nine Heavens Holy Land. If he could really survive this disaster, would the Du Ao Alliance still be afraid of not having a backer in the future?

But now it seems that this Nine Heavens Holy Land is just outwardly strong but inwardly weak.

In this most critical moment, only the new Holy Lord came out to face the enemy. Those elders, protectors, and all the disciples were nowhere to be seen.

This made Yun Cheng couldn’t help but suspect that this new Holy Lord was probably an abandoned son left here to attract the attention of Zhang Ao and the others, so that the others could escape.

“Don’t worry, Zhang Ao won’t be willing to kill him.” Yun Cheng comforted. “This kid is of great use to Zhang Ao.”

Zhang Ao united so many forces and powerhouses to cause trouble for the Nine Heavens Holy Land. Wasn’t the biggest purpose the inheritance here? And now, this inheritance should be in the hands of Yang Kai. How could Zhang Ao be willing to kill him?

“If you don’t want to be enemies with him… then you and Xin Yu hide a little further away.” Yun Cheng said, and then ordered Ji Yan: “Take the young lady to a safe place.”

“Yes.” Ji Yan ‘s deep voice responded, his true essence surged, and without saying a word, he wrapped up Yun Xuan and Ruan Xin Yu the two women, and flew towards the distance.

Yun Xuan had a look of misery on her face. She wanted to continue persuading but didn’t know how to start. Her beautiful eyes were full of worry as she looked at Yang Kai who was surrounded by many strong people, getting farther and farther away.

After his daughter left, Yun Cheng snorted lightly and leaped forward.

“Kid, it’s time to die. Why don’t you surrender!” Zhang Ao shouted angrily at Yang Kai. There was a complacent expression between his eyebrows and a scorching look in his eyes, as if he had already obtained the inheritance of the Nine Heavens Holy Land.

Cao Guan also shouted, persuading Yang Kai to surrender and not to resist stubbornly, otherwise the consequences would be at his own risk and so on.

Yang Kai looked at them indifferently and didn’t say a word.

The place where he was located was completely surrounded from top to bottom, front to back, left to right, tightly packed. Dozens of Saint Realm powerhouses and dozens of Transcendent Realm powerhouses all stared at him with unfriendly expressions.

But his calm and composed appearance made everyone secretly afraid and no one dared to rush up first to make things difficult for him.

This was the Nine Peaks. Before, Yang Kai could display the means of the Saint Realm by relying on the power of the Nine Peaks. If he was really pushed into a corner, except for Zhang Ao, no one could stop him.

“Kid, you’re already like this. It’s really a bit disappointing.” Wu Jie of the Nether Sect suddenly said meaningfully, giggling strangely.

Yang Kai cast a glance at him and smiled freely: “What do you expect?”

Wu Jie slowly shook his head, his body’s green aura churning restlessly, as eerie as a ghost: “I thought you still had some more unexpected means, but it seems I overestimated you. If it’s really just like this, I advise you to surrender honestly and let me seal your true essence, lest Brother Zhang and Brother Cao accidentally injure you.”

“Hehe, I appreciate the kindness.” Yang Kai chuckled: “But with just you people wanting to capture me, I’m afraid it’s a bit overreaching.”

“Too arrogant!” Cao Guan was extremely angry. No martial artist in the Transcendent Realm dared to speak such big words in front of so many Saint Realm powerhouses. This kid’s disregard for others was clearly at a certain level.

“Hall Master…” Not far away, a figure quickly galloped over and came to Cao Guan’s side and said: “There is no one inside. All the disciples of the Nine Heavens Holy Land don’t know where they have gone.”

“Not a single person?” Cao Guan was astonished.

“Yes.”

At the same time, Zhang Ao, Wu Jie and others also received the same report. This discovery inevitably made them a little alert, and all their expressions became solemn, not knowing what tricks the Nine Heavens Holy Land was playing.

Several thousand people disappeared just like that. This phenomenon was too abnormal.

A faint unease rose in his heart, and Zhang Ao immediately decided not to delay any longer.

The longer the night, the more dreams.

Roaring furiously, “Everyone follow me. First, capture this brat. As long as we have this brat in our hands, even if Xu Hui and those people have extraordinary abilities, they won’t be able to make any waves.”
