Chapter 730, Who is the Master Around Here
Outside the ice mountain range, Yang Kaiās face was also quite gloomy, his eyes closed as he silently continued to examine Su Yanās condition. Although he was certain her life wasnāt in any danger, he could not understand what had happened to her that would cause her to not respond to his call. It was like she was in some kind of coma and completely unaware of his presence.
A moment later, several not weak auras suddenly appeared in Yang Kaiās perception range and rapidly flew over towards him.
Yang Kai opened his eyes and a cold light flashed across them as he stared in the direction the Ice Sect disciples were approaching from.
Not long after, this group arrived in front of Yang Kai.
āBrat, sure enough, itās you!ā Ni Ren snorted as he stared at the slightly familiar youth in front of him. Just staring at the cold, murderous look on the opposite partyās face, Ni Ren knew this brat wasnāt anything good.
Regarding this person, Ni Ren didnāt have the slightest good impression.
āYou dare follow me? Your courage really isnāt small,ā Ni Ren coldly snorted, saying in a disgruntled tone, āIt seems Iāll have to have a talk with Water Spirit Temple, how could they have raised such an insidious villain?ā
When he met Yang Kai before, the latter had been moving together with the disciples of Water Spirit Temple, so naturally he thought Yang Kai was also member of Water Spirit Temple.
āWater Spirit Temple has no relationship with me!ā Yang Kai snorted.
Ni Ren frowned as he stared at Yang Kai, calmly saying, āI donāt care what Sect you belong to, this is my Ice Sectās territory. Go back to wherever you came from, otherwise donāt blame us for being unkind.ā
āBefore I see the person I have to see, Iām not going anywhere,ā Yang Kai glared at Ni Ren, flames of anger rising in his heart. This guy clearly knew Su Yan, but when he had asked about her before, the latter had simply cut him off before Yang Kai could finish his question. And now that Yang Kai had arrived here and confirmed Su Yanās presence, this guy wanted to force him to leave without so much as a word of explanation.
This attitude was simply arrogant to the extreme!
Yang Kai was furious, but still didnāt act immediately. Ice Sectās Sect Master had some kind of relationship with Meng Wu Ya. Meng Wu Ya entrusting Su Yan to this place obviously stemmed from the formerās good intentions, so if Ice Sect could give him a reasonable explanation he could accept, Yang Kai didnāt want to make a big deal out of things.
Right now, he just wanted to know what had happened to Su Yan and how she was.
However, even if Yang Kai didnāt let his anger erupt, Ni Ren did, roaring loudly, āLittle brat, donāt refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, speaking such bold words to me in my Ice Sectās territory, you are the first! If you utter any more nonsense, Iāll teach you a harsh lesson!ā
āYou can try!ā Yang Kai sneered.
Ni Renās expression became indifferent as he nodded lightly, āVery well, I didnāt want to hurt you, but youāve brought this upon yourself. A mere junior daring to act so arrogantly in front of me, your ignorance knows no bounds! Today, Iāll let you know who the master is around here!ā
Saying so, Ni Renās eyes flashed and a burst of white light shot out from them. In this white world, it was extremely difficult to detect this light.
The light seemed to be composed of the coldest ice and cut through the air like a sword, slicing into Yang Kaiās head and ripping through his Knowledge Seaās defence, trying to defeat him in one fell swoop.
āA Divine Sense attack...ā
Yang Kaiās mouth curled into a cold sneer and slowly shook his head, āI thought your Ice Sect cultivators were supposed to be strong, but it turns out youāre nothing much. If that was all youāve got, then Iām afraid youāre going to be disappointed.ā
Although Ni Renās Divine Sense attack had easily penetrated into Yang Kaiās Knowledge Sea, it was quickly incinerated, causing no damage at all.
Ni Renās face changed dramatically upon realizing this and all the other Ice Sect disciples around also stared at Yang Kai in amazement.
Ni Ren was a First Order Transcendent master, and though he did not major in cultivating Spiritual Energy, his Divine Sense was still quite powerful. To deal with such a junior should have been a simple task, so the other party not taking with any damage and even leisurely being able to taunt them really was difficult for the Ice Sect disciples to accept.
āJunior Brother, this little brat is a little strange!ā Another Transcendent beside Ni Ren quickly said.
Ni Ren nodded heavily; just now, when Elder Qian Yue told him to bring others to drive this little brat away, he had felt she was making too much of a fuss, but now he knew otherwise. Fortunately he had brought some of his fellow brothers to help or else, if he had come all alone, facing this strange kid in battle likely would have result in him suffering an embarrassing loss.
As he thought so, Ni Ren stared at Yang Kai fixedly, his expression a lot more solemn then it was before, a moment later saying, āLittle brat, I see you have some skill. I wonāt embarrass you any further, so leave now.ā
āI said, before I see the one I need to see, Iām not leaving,ā Yang Kai slowly shook his head, his attitude firm, his expression sinking as he coldly stated, āIf you donāt let me see her, Iāll flatten every one of your ice mountains!ā
āBold! You think weāll allow you to act as you please in our Ice Sect?ā Ni Ren shouted furiously.
āIt seems itās useless for me to speak with someone of your status in Ice Sect. Since thatās the case, Iāll have to find someone with some real authority!ā Just as Yang Kaiās voice fell, his figure flickered and he shot towards a certain ice mountain in the distance. From that mountain, he could feel a powerful Divine Sense monitoring the situation over here.
āDonāt even think about it!ā Ni Ren shouted, his True Qi bursting forth, āFrozen World!ā
The bone chilling wind suddenly became even colder and in a flash, Yang Kaiās body was surrounded by a mysterious energy. This energy quickly solidified into innumerable icy blades that shot towards him from every possible direction, each of these blades giving off an imposing and dangerous aura.
In an instant, Yang Kaiās figure was lost in this torrent of blades.
However, Ni Renās expression did not relax and instead became even more solemn.
*Xiu xiu xiu...*
The ice blades continued to fly towards Yang Kai from all around, but at the centre of this barrage a blazing inferno had erupted and was spreading outwards at incredible speed. Soon, a red hot ball of flames as dazzling as the sun formed, blinding those who tried to stare at it.
*Hong...*
When Ni Renās Frozen World exploded, Yang Kai stood mid-air, surrounded by his flames, radiating a scalding hot aura as he stared down at Ni Ren indifferently.
āTranscendent Realm!ā Ni Ren complexion changed greatly as his eyes bulged in disbelief.
Feeling Yang Kaiās True Qi fluctuations, he finally understood what his opponentās cultivation was.
This young man, like him, was a First Order Transcendent master! And his opponentās True Qi was actually several times purer and denser than his own. What made Ni Ren truly unease though was that this youthās True Qi had a potent Yang Attribute, the nemesis of his Ice Attribute Qi!
āJunior Brother, watch out!ā In the instant that Ni Ren lost his composure, his Senior Brother nearby suddenly called out and hurriedly pulled him away.
*Xiu...*
A fiery red spear scratched Ni Renās body and sank into the ground, instantly melting the ten thousand year old ice and opening a hole dozens of meters across and at least a thousand meters deep.
Feeling the power of that spear which was purely condense of this strange youthās True Qi caused all the Ice Sect disciples present to go pale.
All of them had broken through to the Transcendent Realm, but none of them was confident they could have withstood such an attack. If they had been hit directly with that flame spear, they would likely have vaporized as easily as the ice around them had.
*Hu hu...*
An unbearably hot True Qi aura spread out and instantly covered a several thousand meter radius. Within this scalding domain, anyone who cultivated Ice Attribute Secret Arts was suppressed to some degrees and their True Qi seemed to circulate more slowly.
Yang Kai stood mid-air, a cold chill flashing across his eyes as he stared down below and solemnly said, āIāll ask you one last time, what happened to Su Yan?ā
āBoy, we donāt know anyone named Su Yan, so how are we supposed to know what happened to her? If you want to fight, stop trying to find excuses and just fight!ā Ni Ren stubbornly declared.
āGood,ā Yang Kai nodded and no longer wasted his breath. Condensing a drop of Yang Liquid at his fingertips before flicking his wrist and shooting it out.
The drop of Yang Liquid exploded and transformed into thousands of tiny droplets that flew towards the Ice Sect disciples below.
āIce Curtain!ā
āIce Lock!ā
āIce Crystal Beasts!ā
Ni Ren and the others Transcendents all immediately responded to Yang Kaiās attack, each of them using their own Ice Attribute Martial Skills.
A shield of ice filled with profound chill rose up in front of the Ice Sect disciples while chains comprised of Ice Attribute Qi shot towards Yang Kai. At the same time, a series of roars rang out and a number of giant Monster Beasts appeared above the glacier, fierce looks upon their faces.
These Monster Beasts were composed entirely of Ice Attribute True Qi and had the appearance of elaborate ice sculptures; however, each of them behaved incredibly lifelike, running atop the ground and soaring through the sky as they struck towards Yang Kai.
*Chi chi chi...*
The drop of Yang Liquid which had transformed into countless tiny droplets effortlessly penetrated the Ice Curtain, causing Ni Ren and his fellow brothersā faces to pale, all of them quickly summoning their own defensive artifacts in the next instant to protect themselves.
Simultaneously, the Ice Lockās chains wrapped up Yang Kai, but before their summoner could celebrate, to his horror, his Martial Skill which should have been able to tie down a Second Order Transcendent was actually instantly melted by Yang Kaiās True Yang Yuan Qi, not even slowing the latter down for a single breath.
Yang Kai stepped forward leisurely and confronted the ice crystal beasts next.
After not having used this particular Martial Skill for so long, Yang Kai once again pushed forward his palms and with a great tiger roar and ox bellow, the Heaven Shaking White Tiger and Earth Splitting Divine Ox appeared, their bodies radiating a burning hot golden aura as they charged forward.
*Pa pa pa...*
All of the ice crystal beasts that charged towards Yang Kai were no match for the White Tiger and Divine Ox phantoms and were easily crushed and evaporate by the latter, disappearing in a puff of steam.
In less than three breaths, Yang Kai had crushed the Ice Sect discipleās techniques and arrived in front of them. The True Qi fiercely overflowing from Yang Kaiās body made each of these disciples tremble unconsciously. They had never thought that a cultivator in the same realm as them could so completely overwhelm them in combat. Even though it was three against one, not only was this strange youth not showing any signs of defeat, he even appeared calm and relaxed, as if he hadnāt even used half his full strength yet.
Feeling the power surging through his body, Yang Kai truly felt carefree.
Certainly, the cultivators of Ice Sect had much higher combat power than average, the two First Order Transcendents of the Cheng Family which Yang Kai had cleaned up previously in Blue Water City werenāt even in the same league.
Even if two people had the same cultivation, depending on their comprehension of the Heavenly Way and Martial Dao, their combat power could be vastly different.
Regarding this point, Yang Kai had achieved something of a pinnacle amongst the same realm, although these Ice Sect disciples were all rare talents in this field, their achievements were still incomparable to Yang Kaiās.
After making a move, Yang Kaiās anger seemed to have been released somewhat and his emotions gradually calmed down.
He came to Ice Sect not to fight or kill, but to see Su Yan.
Thinking so, his murderous intent converged significantly but his momentum did not. Ni Ren and the other Ice Sect disciples did their best to stop Yang Kai, but not only could they not block him, they were actually teetering on the brink of total defeat.
This whole scenario made them feel quite fearful and their attitudes towards Yang Kai changed dramatically as a result.
