MARTIAL PEAK 4742

Was this a gift for him? Yang Kai didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

In the past, High Rank Open Heaven had been far beyond his reach, and now, not only could he stand on equal footing with so many High Rank masters, he could even make others want to give him gifts.

However, Yang Kai was quite curious about what this Shi Zheng wanted to give him. After all, ordinary treasures weren’t enough to convince him. The fact that Shi Zheng was so confident indicated that this gift was definitely not light.

Zhang Ruoxi entered the cabin and soon returned with an exquisite wooden box.

Yang Kai didn’t know what material this box was made of, but it was about the length of an arm and exuded the aura of a Sixth Grade material. Yang Kai raised his brow. Just this box alone was a Sixth Grade Wood Element resource, worth at least fifteen million Open Heaven Pills, so how much would the content placed on this box cost?

Under Shi Zheng’s instructions, Zhang Ruoxi placed the box in front of Yang Kai.

Yang Kai looked over suspiciously.

Shi Zheng stretched out his hand and smiled, “Sect Master Yang, please take a look!”

Yang Kai didn’t move and simply shook his head, “Elder Shi, right now there are countless pairs of eyes staring at the Good Fortune Divine Furnace, so even if I wanted to help, I wouldn’t be able to do so. However, Ruoxi is still a member of my Star Boundary, after all. I won’t look at anything else but this relationship. In the future, when the various Cave Heaven Paradise arrange for the Good Fortune Divine Furnace to be used, I’ll try my best to arrange for Lang Ya Paradise to be at the front. As for anything else, I can’t do anything about it. This item… I don’t need to look at it, but I hope Elder Shi can take it back!”

If it weren’t for Zhang Ruoxi’s relationship with him, Yang Kai wouldn’t have come here today. For Zhang Ruoxi’s sake, Yang Kai was willing to give Lang Ya Paradise some convenience, but if it was too much, he wouldn’t be able to satisfy it.

The Good Fortune Divine Furnace didn’t belong to him. He had only received a request from Troublesome Grandmaster to represent the Great Evolution to discuss the use of the Good Fortune Divine Furnace with the various Cave Heaven Paradise.

Shi Zheng chuckled, “Sect Master Yang doesn’t need to worry too much, this thing was prepared for you by my Lang Ya Paradise. Let’s not talk about anything else for now, Sect Master Yang, please take a look.”

Yang Kai grinned, “I’m afraid I’ll be tempted by it!”

Since Shi Zheng was so confident, it meant that the thing inside this box was truly extraordinary, and it might even be able to move him.

“If it can move Sect Master Yang’s heart, it is exactly what this king wants!” Shi Zheng smiled and ordered, “Ruoxi, open it for Sect Master Yang!”

Zhang Ruoxi remained silent, shooting an apologetic look towards Yang Kai before leaning over and placing her hand on the wooden box.

When she had first met Yang Kai, she had been quite happy, but after listening to the conversation between Shi Zheng and Yang Kai, she had vaguely realized something.

However, Shi Zheng was an elder of Lang Ya Paradise, so Zhang Ruoxi could not refuse his orders.

The wooden box slowly opened, and when Yang Kai looked over, a black line suddenly flew towards him at lightning speed, so fast that Yang Kai couldn’t react in time.

If Yang Kai had been prepared, this black line would not have hit him, it was mainly because he had not been prepared.

Yang Kai’s eyes went wide as he stared into the wooden box, preparing to see what kind of treasure was inside. Who would have thought that something so strange would appear?

When the black line appeared, an extremely uncomfortable aura spread out.

The black line instantly disappeared into Yang Kai’s body.

The smile on Shi Zheng’s face gradually deepened!

But soon, his smile froze on his face as the black line that had entered Yang Kai’s body returned, seemingly trying to escape towards Shi Zheng.

A large hand shot out like lightning and grabbed the black line.

Shi Zheng was stunned!

Zhang Ruoxi was also stunned!

Yang Kai was also stunned!

The black line struggled violently in Yang Kai’s hand, as if it was alive. Yang Kai looked over and found that the black line was completely headless, like a giant black earthworm. An extremely uncomfortable black aura emanated from its body like steam.

What kind of bullshit treasure was this? This thing was obviously not good!

Yang Kai looked up and met Shi Zheng’s eyes, but the latter still wore a look of confusion.

The corners of Yang Kai’s mouth twitched slightly as he gave him a polite smile and slowly placed the black earthworm back into the wooden box before gently closing it and stuffing it into his Space Ring.

“I really like Elder Shi’s gift, thank you Elder Shi,” Yang Kai nodded slightly.

Shi Zheng stared at him with a solemn expression as a powerful aura slowly spread out.

Yang Kai stood up and said, “Elder Shi, High Heaven Palace still has some matters to attend to, so I won’t stay here any longer. I’ll take my leave first.”

Turning to Zhang Ruoxi, he said, “Ruoxi, follow me back to the Star Boundary!”

Zhang Ruoxi also noticed that something was wrong and immediately nodded.

Yang Kai used his strength to wrap around Zhang Ruoxi, and with a single thought, he sent out his Space Law to return to the Star Boundary.

With his current strength, as long as he was in High Heaven Territory and borrowed the World Strength of the Star Boundary, he could instantly return no matter how far he went.

Shi Zheng stood up and the aura of a Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage master filled the air as he punched towards Yang Kai.

The power of this punch was terrifying, and the World Force surged, instantly severing the connection between Yang Kai and the Star Boundary.

In a hurry, Yang Kai gently pushed Zhang Ruoxi with his palm, sending her flying while he was hit on the back by Shi Zheng’s fist. His body flew out like a ragdoll, blood spraying from his mouth.

The change happened in the blink of an eye, and before Zhang Ruoxi could react, Yang Kai was injured by Shi Zheng, his fate unknown.

Shi Zheng didn’t pay any attention to her, instead directly chasing after Yang Kai and sending out a few Divine Abilities towards his ruined figure. Immediately after, he stood in the air with his hands behind his back.

Yang Kai’s cultivation was only at the Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage, but he had managed to kill Zuo Quan Hui, a Seventh Order master, so everyone in the Cave Heaven Paradise had some understanding of his strength.

As such, Shi Zheng did not hold back at all.

Since he couldn’t carry out his original plan, he could only kill.

Under such an attack, he believed that Yang Kai would not be able to survive.

However, in fact, when the fluctuations of these Divine Abilities gradually disappeared, Shi Zheng saw Yang Kai standing there covered in blood, staring at him coldly.

Not dead? Shi Zheng’s eyes narrowed slightly. Not only was he not dead, he didn’t even show any signs of being seriously injured. For a moment, Shi Zheng wondered if he was seeing things.

Everything that had happened today was unbelievable. First, the trap he had prepared had no effect on Yang Kai, and then his own attack had failed.

Where did this boy come from?

“It hurts!” Yang Kai shook his arm and turned his head.

If he had been ambushed by a veteran Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage master before heading to the Shattered Heaven, he might have died on the spot. The other party had not held back, so no matter how strong he was, he would not have been able to resist.

However, after obtaining the World Spring in Shattered Heaven, even though Shi Zheng was a Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator, those Divine Abilities were unable to affect his Small Universe in the slightest. All of his strength was borne by his physical body, so there was no need for him to be in such a state.

As for Yang Kai’s physical body, it was now a thousand zhang long dragon.

The clothes on his body were also formed from dragon scales and had outstanding defensive capabilities!

So even though Shi Zheng had gone all out and Yang Kai had suffered heavy injuries, to Open Heaven Stage cultivator, as long as their Small Universe is not damaged, it wouldn’t be a big problem.

In the distance, Zhang Ruoxi, who had been pushed away by Yang Kai, finally stopped and looked up to see that Yang Kai was fine. Only then did she heave a sigh of relief. After hesitating for a moment, she turned around and flew towards the Star Boundary.

She had no intention of staying behind to fight side by side with Yang Kai because she knew that with her Fifth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivation, not only would she not be able to help him, but she would also be a burden to him.

All she could do was not become Yang Kai’s burden and flee!

This was undoubtedly the right move.

She didn’t know why Elder Shi Zheng wanted to harm Yang Kai, but everything that had happened just now was simply unbelievable. There was also the gift Elder Shi Zheng wanted to give Yang Kai, and when the black earthworm-like thing appeared, Zhang Ruoxi clearly felt a strong sense of disgust.

Seeing Zhang Ruoxi escape from the corner of his eye, Yang Kai secretly praised her for her cleverness before calmly looking at Shi Zheng, “Why?”

Shi Zheng looked up and down at Yang Kai in surprise. He was puzzled that his several Divine Abilities had failed, but what made him even more confused was that Yang Kai hadn’t been hit before!

This was the biggest miscalculation he had made. If his initial plan had succeeded, he wouldn’t have had to go through all this trouble.

Suddenly, Shi Zheng seemed to understand something, “You refined one of the Universe Four Pillars?”

“Is this matter decided by Elder Shi alone or by Lang Ya Paradise?” Yang Kai looked at Shi Zheng lightly.

If it was just Shi Zheng’s personal actions, it wouldn’t matter much, but if he was representing Lang Ya Paradise, then this matter was quite interesting.

“What kind of Universe Four Pillars did you refine?” Shi Zheng stared at Yang Kai.

“What is that black earthworm-like thing?”

Both of them asked questions, but neither of them answered.

Shi Zheng had lost his patience. This time, he had failed in his attack and was completely exposed. If he wanted to make up for it, he could only kill Yang Kai and Zhang Ruoxi to silence them.

What’s more, those who refined the Universe Four Pillars must die!

Killing intent suddenly surged as Shi Zheng’s Seventh Order Open Heaven World Force burst forth and he shot towards Yang Kai like a bolt of lightning.

In the midst of this chaos, a low voice rang out, “Heaven and Earth lend me strength!”

In the blink of an eye, Yang Kai suddenly understood something. The reason why Shi Zheng had arranged the meeting place so far away from the Star Boundary was because he was afraid that he would be able to borrow the power of the Star Boundary to temporarily possess the power of a Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage master.

But what he didn’t know was that as long as he was in High Heaven Territory, Yang Kai could borrow the power of the Star Boundary, which had nothing to do with distance.

After letting out a low groan, a trace of anxiety suddenly appeared on Shi Zheng’s face. If Yang Kai really managed to break through to the Seventh Order, he wasn’t confident he could kill him in a short time.
