MARTIAL PEAK 5986

Amidst the waves, Yang Kai’s figure appeared, the power of the Great Dao surging around him.

In terms of aura alone, he was slightly stronger than the previous Black Ink and Zhang Ruoxi. This was the result of his Great Dao attainments being greatly improved.

The most obvious manifestation was the size of the Space-Time River.

Now, the size of his Space-Time River was comparable to the river left behind by Mu, and the increase was unimaginable.

After transforming into a Divine Dragon, although Yang Kai’s cultivation hadn’t improved much, his current strength was no longer comparable to before.

A sharp gaze shot over.

At a glance, Yang Kai saw Black Ink standing in the distance, the hatred and murderous intent in his eyes undisguised.

Black Ink’s appearance was very similar to the Little Eleven he had seen in the Primordial World. If Little Eleven had grown up normally, he would have become like this.

Ruoxi stood between him and Black Ink, vigilant.

Yang Kai had been absorbing and refining Mu’s last gift, so he knew nothing about the outside world, but now that he saw Black Ink and Ruoxi’s state, he naturally understood that the two of them had fought before, and it seemed that both of them had suffered heavy losses, because whether it was Ruoxi or Black Ink, neither of them gave him the strong feeling he had expected.

His Divine Sense spread out like a tide and soon, the scene in the distant Void Battlefield was imprinted into his heart.

He frowned slightly.

Compared to his side, the Human Race and Small Stone Race allied forces were in a bad situation. If this continued, the allied forces would definitely lose.

Yang Kai immediately called out, “Ruoxi!”

Zhang Ruoxi quickly replied, “Yes, Sir.”

“Go to the battlefield and help the Human Race kill the enemy.”

Zhang Ruoxi was stunned.

According to her original plan, when Sir had come out of seclusion, they could naturally join forces to deal with Black Ink.

She was not Black Ink’s opponent alone, but if she could join forces with Sir, their chances of winning would be very high.

Black Ink’s current strength had been greatly weakened because of the sealed Source and Zhang Ruoxi’s battle with him. The clash between light and darkness was constantly weakening each other.

As long as they could kill Black Ink, the hidden dangers of the 3000 Worlds would be resolved.

Seemingly having read Zhang Ruoxi’s thoughts, Yang Kai said, “The current Human Race army is the only force left in this world. If they are destroyed here, it will be meaningless even if we defeat Black Ink. Ruoxi, quickly go and help the Human Race. I will be here.”

How could Zhang Ruoxi not understand this principle? If the Human Race army was truly destroyed, then it would be useless for her and Yang Kai to defeat Black Ink here.

This war was originally a counterattack for the Human Race to survive. The outcome of this war was determined by the Human Race’s army.

Gritting her teeth, she said, “Then be careful, Sir, I will return as soon as possible!”

Saying so, she glared fiercely at Black Ink before gently waving her wings and transforming into a streak of light that shot towards the battlefield.

As she left, only Black Ink and Yang Kai remained in the void.

“A wise choice!” Black Ink said softly.

Yang Kai raised his brow, “What aspect?”

Black Ink smiled lightly, “Her condition isn’t very good, so you wanted her to leave to save her life.”

Yang Kai’s brow wrinkled even more, “I thought I was about to face an evil person who had lost his rationality, but I didn’t expect him to be a wise and farsighted person. This is a difficult situation.”

Yang Kai could see Zhang Ruoxi’s condition at a glance. Although he didn’t know what the final result of the Heaven's Order Bloodline and the Great Yang and Great Yin Force would be, the eight Ninth Order Small Stone Race masters around Ruoxi were clearly on the verge of collapse.

As the core of the Nine Directions Array, she had to endure a great deal of pressure.

If they continued to stay here and participate in the battle against Black Ink, once the Ninth Order Small Stone Race collapsed and Black Ink found an opportunity, Ruoxi would definitely die.

Of course, letting Ruoxi leave wasn’t just to protect her. The Human Race and Small Stone Race allied forces really needed help, and without any external forces to interfere with that battlefield, the allied forces would definitely lose.

When Zhang Ruoxi went to the battlefield there, the intensity of the battle she had to endure shouldn’t be very high. As long as she was careful and ensured that the eight Small Stone Race members didn’t die, she wouldn’t be in too much danger.

What surprised Yang Kai was Black Ink.

Just as he had said, he had thought he was facing a violent existence that had lost all rationality, but now Black Ink’s thoughts were clear and his reason was clear…

Yang Kai would rather face a person who had no sense of reason and only knew how to kill. Such a person was easier to deal with.

“I’m surprised you didn’t stop me from swallowing and refining Mu’s Space-Time River,” Yang Kai said.

When he was refining Mu’s gift, he had been on guard against Black Ink’s interference, but after the first attack, Black Ink had not made any other moves.

Although Zhang Ruoxi had arrived in time to delay him, the last thing Yang Kai saw was him confronting Ruoxi in the void.

This was obviously abnormal.

At that time, Black Ink could have broken through Ruoxi’s blockade by force, but of course he would have to pay a price.

However, from Black Ink’s point of view, stopping Yang Kai from swallowing and refining Mu’s river was naturally his primary goal, so it was worth it to pay a price.

Listening to Yang Kai’s words, Black Ink’s eyes drooped and he sighed lightly, “Did Mu leave a method to deal with me in the river?”

Yang Kai nodded in understanding, “You really noticed.”

Mu had left her own Space-Time River to her future descendants, but swallowing and refining it was not an easy task. During this time, Black Ink would definitely intervene.

How could a woman as intelligent as Mu not have thought of this point? As such, she had left behind a large number of methods to deal with Black Ink. Once Black Ink dared to enter her river, he would inevitably become dizzy in the endless space and time, unable to find Yang Kai.

What Black Ink had told Zhang Ruoxi before was just to stabilize Zhang Ruoxi. At that time, even if Zhang Ruoxi had not tried to stop him, Black Ink would not have easily entered the river.

If he didn’t go deep into the river, he wouldn’t be able to find Yang Kai’s hiding place and naturally wouldn’t be able to stop him from swallowing and refining it.

Under Mu’s arrangements, Yang Kai would definitely be able to successfully refine it.

This was the wisdom of the predecessors. Of course, it was also because she understood Black Ink too well. After spending countless years together, she was well aware of his personalities and temperaments. Mu could think of the possibility that Black Ink would sneak into the river. Naturally, Black Ink also thought of the methods Mu had left behind to deal with him.

After countless years of confrontation, no one had gained an advantage.

The only one who benefited was Yang Kai. His attainments in the Three Thousand Great Dao had greatly increased, and the size of the Space-Time River had also grown to an unimaginable degree.

“So what if I let you obtain the power Mu left behind?” Black Ink’s eyes were filled with contempt, “Do you think you can defeat me like this?”

Yang Kai Yan smiled, “I was just about to test the methods of the Creation Realm master!”

Saying so, Yang Kai raised his hands high, and as he did so, the Space-Time River beneath him began to boil and roar, as if it had transformed into a Divine Dragon. Great waves surged and the power of the Great Dao surged.

In the blink of an eye, a series of water dragons shot out from the river, each of them like a rope, each of them manifesting the power of a Great Dao as they flew towards Black Ink.

Black Ink raised his fist fiercely, the void in front of him suddenly shattered and a large number of Void Cracks appeared, forming a natural barrier that blocked the incoming Water Dragon.

Taking a step forward, he crossed the crack and arrived directly in front of Yang Kai, staring down at him with an indifferent expression, “Your usage of the Great Dao is inferior to Mu’s!”

Pure and rich Ink Force surged as a mysterious power enveloped his fist and smashed down.

Yang Kai’s eyes narrowed slightly as he instinctively felt the power of this punch. He could not allow himself to be hit, otherwise he would die.

The river water surged and formed a Great Dao barrier in front of him.

However, this layer of Great Dao barrier only lasted for an instant before it was shattered by the fist.

Fortunately, with this momentary delay, Yang Kai had already taken out his Azure Dragon Spear. The power of the Great Dao lingered around the spear’s body as it pointed towards the fist.

Yang Kai felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and after a brief pause, he was sent flying into the river, the spear in his hand almost flying.

“Trash!” Black Ink lowered his head to look at his fist. There was a small white dot on the peak of his fist, left behind by the Azure Dragon Spear, but this white dot quickly disappeared.

The indestructible Azure Dragon Spear, together with Yang Kai’s full-powered strike, did not even have the qualifications to cause a scratch on Black Ink’s body. It was obvious how great the gap between their strengths was.

A powerful aura didn’t represent a powerful strength. A true master could completely restrain their aura, making it impossible to see anything from the outside. On the other hand, Yang Kai’s aura was so flamboyant that it was difficult to control his strength.

A figure quickly emerged from the river. It was none other than Yang Kai, who had been sent flying into the river. His expression was solemn. Although he had guessed that he was not Black Ink’s opponent, he had not expected the gap in strength between them to be so great.

Was this the power of the Creator Realm?

It had to be known that this was Black Ink, who he had sealed more than thirty percent of his Source strength. If he hadn’t sealed his Source, what would have happened to Black Ink at his peak?

If that was the case, he would have been dead by now.

With this thought in mind, Black Ink had already arrived atop the waves. Even if Yang Kai managed to activate the many Great Dao forces in the river to form a barrier and restrict his movements, it would still be difficult to restrain him.

The Ink Force surrounding his body and a strange energy fluctuation that should have belonged to the Creation Realm master, all the Great Dao force that had been close to him had been shattered and was completely useless.

Yang Kai had only just stabilized himself when Black Ink closed in on him, his hand reaching out towards his head, seemingly wanting to crush him.

How could Yang Kai tolerate such a thing? The Azure Dragon Spear shook as it once again circulated the power of various Great Daos and shot forward.

Black Ink’s attack didn’t change, but this seemingly simple attack contained an extremely profound variation, easily breaking through Yang Kai’s spear and blocking his vision.
