Chapter 936 - 723: Yun Kai in Despair

In the dark forest, the ground kept shaking, and a large number of trees collapsed in one direction, as if gigantic beasts were rampaging wildly.

Swish, swish, swish!

Amidst the blurry sounds, steel thorns, each seven to eight meters long, continuously emerged from the ground, shooting towards the sky like sharp swords, bringing with them a few shrill howls and curses.

"It's over there!"

With a shout, enormous beast shadows emerged.

The beast shadows appeared somewhat ghostly, with figures standing inside them, sporting prominent horns, exuding a fierce aura.

In front of these beast shadows, a young man with a glowing golden body was flying, deftly weaving through the towering trees.

The young man stood two meters tall, his physique robust and his facial features sharply defined, with thick brows and big eyes, a high nose bridge, and wild beast-like brown eyes; though not conventionally handsome, he had a striking presence.

At first glance, he left a deep impression.

Nine sharp swords hovered behind the young man, occasionally shooting out to fend off sneak attacks from all directions.

"No escape now."

Upon reaching a somewhat open area, the flying swords beneath him suddenly stopped. Yun Kai looked up at the sky, where over twenty figures were flapping their wings, gazing at him with murderous intent.

In mere seconds, he was surrounded.

Around him, there were at least fifty people, nearly all of them kings.

Despite their overwhelming numerical advantage, no one dared to approach Yun Kai rashly in the face of his intimidating presence.

"Hand over the Heart of Space, and I'll leave your corpse intact."

In the sky, a middle-aged man flapped his dark wings and spoke coldly.

He gazed at Yun Kai's chest, his eyes filled with uncontrollable longing.

There, amidst the golden radiance, was a faint circle of rainbow light.

The ten-star ranked Heart of Space was a treasure even for emperors.

He was a Middle Rank Spirit King, and if he could acquire this Heart of Space, his chances of becoming an emperor would significantly increase, shortening his cultivation time by twenty to thirty years.

Although Yun Kai was lucky to obtain the Heart of Space, he hadn't had time to refine it.

They still had a chance to seize it back.

And perhaps kill this guy.

With Ancestral Demonization bloodline and having refined the Earth Chart's Golden Lion King, Yun Kai was an exceedingly rare prodigy even on the Divine Martial Continent.

Such talent was enviable even for them.

Moreover, Yun Kai was only 23 years old.

A 23-year-old Double King; if this chance to kill him wasn't seized, he would surely become a major threat in the future.

Furthermore, he was a member of the Avengers Alliance, with a hefty bounty on his head.

Yun Kai floated on his sword, three meters off the ground.

Faced with the threat from the abnormal people, his expression was unusually calm.

He looked around, searching for a chance to escape.

Unfortunately, he was completely surrounded, even underground had obscure spiritual fluctuations, clearly indicating abnormal people lying in ambush there.

"Sword Rain!"

Yun Kai mentally chanted, his soul power rapidly waning, consuming more than half in an instant.

If there was no opportunity, he would create one.

In the colorful sky, golden rays suddenly erupted, gathering into golden swords, suspended in the sky.

In just two or three seconds, thousands of golden swords rapidly took shape, their tips all pointing downward.

The gathering swords made no sound, but their invisible Sword Qi made hearts tremble.

Under the divine level soul skill [Sword Rain], the abnormal people hurriedly activated barriers or Life Soul Possession, yet none dared move rashly, their eyes heavy with caution and a hint of fear.

All along, it seemed they chase Yun Kai; yet Yun Kai was unharmed, while many of their own had perished or been injured.

Ancestral Demonization talent seemed too monstrous; combined with Golden Lion King's skill, Yun Kai could attack from afar, engage in close combat, fly swiftly on swords, with lion series Demon Spirit's great power, his defense amazing, endurance incredible, leaving no obvious weakness to exploit.

Adding to that, Yun Kai was already a Double King powerhouse, with a luxurious combination of soul skills, creating a deep sense of helplessness.

Had they not taken advantage of their numbers, and organized an encirclement, they wouldn't have dared appear before Yun Kai.

In this struggle for the Heart of Space, Yun Kai had slain more than ten kings, and over a hundred below king rank.

"Kill!"

After a moment of silence, an old man, unable to hold his patience, yelled out, charging towards Yun Kai.

Yun Kai glanced at this headstrong opponent without any motion; the Sword Rain cascaded down.

The old man's form was engulfed by the sword rain, uttering only one scream before being buried beneath the golden swords.

A Martial King powerhouse lasted less than three seconds.

The number of golden swords in the sky had decreased by one-tenth.

In other words, Yun Kai could launch such an attack nine more times.

No one wanted to become cannon fodder, and the atmosphere quickly became tense.

"We need to leave quickly; the Abnormal People are gathering in greater numbers, and my Soul Power is limited."

Yun Kai looked up at the sky as a torrential Sword Rain poured down, launching indiscriminate attacks.

As the Sword Rain fell, multicolored barriers and Life Souls rippled, creating a chaotic scene.

When the last golden sword vanished in the sky, there were three corpses on the ground, and one person had a sword pierced through his thigh, continually wailing.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Yun Kai brought his fingers together and pointed forward.

With a whistling sound, the nine floating swords behind him shot out, and Yun Kai followed closely.

"Trying to escape?"

With an angry shout, a man charged at Yun Kai, extending his right hand as a mass of vines wound toward Yun Kai.

The vines twisted in the air like emerald poisonous snakes, quickly appearing before Yun Kai.

Yun Kai swung his right hand, and a sword rapidly spun to cut the vines; however, there were too many, constantly growing and impossible to cut completely.

Simultaneously, seven ghostly shadows appeared before Yun Kai, trying to merge into his body.

Under the amplification of Ancestral Demonization, the defense of [Golden Transformation] was astonishingly high, but it couldn't resist the invasion of these ghostly beings.

"Roar!"

Yun Kai let out a roar, his body bursting with golden light as a towering five-meter golden lion appeared.

On the surface of this golden lion's body were dark golden patterns flowing like veins.

The golden lion grabbed the vines with both hands, tearing them apart directly.

The ghostly shadows couldn't enter the Life Soul, only lingering around the Golden Lion King.

The ground trembled as a deep pit appeared, and the Golden Lion King leaped forward.

But just as it soared into the air, various attacks came at it.

First, a massive earth yellow hammer descended toward the Golden Lion King's shoulder.

As the hammer fell, the air rippled with a dull sound.

The Golden Lion King raised its right arm to block, halting its leap and rapidly falling toward the ground.

Before its feet fully touched the ground, various attacks exploded on the Golden Lion King's chest, making the already slightly illusory lion shadow even more blurred, as if it would disintegrate in the next moment.

Within the chest of the Golden Lion King Life Soul, Yun Kai wore a serious expression, dispersing the Life Soul quickly before the next wave of attacks arrived.

Life Soul Possession enhanced defense hundredfold, but it consumed too much Soul Power and made one a large target, easily subject to concentrated attacks and restraint.

Yun Kai flapped his golden Spiritual Power Wings, constantly dodging attacks.

As the attacks temporarily paused, Yun Kai hovered in midair.

At this moment, he found himself surrounded by 19 large beast shadows, with seven hundred-meter-long Spirit Soldiers poised to strike in the air.

How to escape?

"Is giving up the only option? But even giving up won't ensure escape."

Looking at the colorful light sphere at his chest, Yun Kai felt a bit of regret.

He had successfully obtained it, but there was no time for Refinement.

Yun Kai looked up, seeing attacks descending from the sky.

"Roar!"

With a roar, Yun Kai once again possessed the Life Soul, but it lasted only a second before it disintegrated.

Although his Soul Power wasn't completely depleted, it was insufficient to maintain Life Soul Possession.

Besides, even with Life Soul Possession, it would only defend for one or two more seconds.

Yun Kai's gaze wasn't filled with fear, but rather regret.

So many goals were unfinished.

Brother Feng had become a Celestial King, but he hadn't kept up with Brother Feng's pace.

He had been too confident.

The ten-star Key contest wasn't something a lone wolf could participate in.

Thankfully, it wasn't a total loss, having killed some Alien Kings.

The whistling wind was slightly piercing, and the blazing flames ignited his hair, Yun Kai closed his eyes, silently awaiting the arrival of death; yet in the next moment, he felt no pain.

Only hearing surprised exclamations, Yun Kai suddenly opened his eyes, discovering he had somehow changed locations.

Hurriedly looking toward his original direction, a familiar figure gradually came into view.....
