Chapter 5620: Catalyst

That answer was impeccable. It was the same reason why Yang Kai went to look for the Primordial Light. He felt he had to do something, but there was literally nothing else for him to do, in short, he was bored

But we did learn something, Big Sister Lan suddenly spoke up.

Yang Kais expression turned serious, What did you discover?

Instead of answering him, Big Sister Lan asked a question, Do you know Alchemy?

Not knowing what Alchemy had to do with this situation, Yang Kai still answered honestly, I know a little.

He had some Alchemic Dao Essence inside his Small Universe. Though he wasnt as proficient in it as his three primary Grand Daos, his accomplishments werent low either. If he was willing, Yang Kai figured he could easily become an Alchemy Grandmaster. Moreover, he actively cultivated the Alchemic Dao in his youth.

Since there were many cultivators in his Small Universe, they were able to benefit from this and some became quite talented in the Alchemic Dao.

Big Sister Lan continued, Since you know Alchemy, you should know that there are many times when herbs that have opposing natures are put together inside the same furnace, but not only do they not destroy each other, they enhance each others medicinal efficiency.

Nodding, Yang Kai replied, Indeed. The Alchemic Dao is profound and boundless, and what it focuses on is the ratio of herbs and how they counteract and enhance each other. After thinking about it, he questioned, Are you saying

If you think of me and Big Brother Huang as counteracting herbs, what would you do to blend our medicinal efficacies?

Yang Kais eyes lit up, A catalyst!

It wasnt true that two counteracting herbs couldnt be placed in the same furnace, one only had to add a suitable medicinal catalyst, and disaster could be turned into a miracle. Not only could a catalyst help maximize the two herbs medicinal efficacies, but it could help them fuse together and produce new and astonis.h.i.+ng effects.

I understand now! Yang Kai was elated, like a terminally ill patient who suddenly found a cure after searching for so long. He was acting almost epileptic.

The last time Yang Kai came to the Chaotic Dead Territory and talked with these two, he realised that they had a huge connection with the Primordial Light, and perhaps were even part of it at one point. That was because Big Sister Lan previously said that she vaguely remembered being abandoned.

[Who would abandon them? And what kind of being could abandon them?]

The answer to that was undoubtedly the Primordial Light.

Although Yang Kai didnt know the reason behind all of this, the Primordial Light did separate from the Yang and Yin that eventually became the Suns Burning Light and Moons Serene Glimmer.

That was why they vaguely remembered feeling like they were abandoned. They were originally the same being but were separated by a powerful force.

If they wanted to fuse, they would have to reverse what happened. So, there must be a special existence in this World, and that existence was the medicinal catalyst to help Big Brother Huang and Big Sister Lan reintegrate with each other!

If he could find that catalyst, perhaps they might be able to recreate that glorious light.

Big Brother Huang and Big Sister Lan looked at each other, feeling speechless.

But soon, Yang Kais expression turned stiff, and he frowned deeply. It only took a moment for his happy expression to disappear.

He managed to figure something out, but it all seemed meaningless

Would he be able to find the catalyst when he couldnt even find the Primordial Light? He had been searching around so many Great Territories, but so far hadnt found anything at all. Even if he searched every Great Territory, there was still a chance that he wouldnt find what he was looking for.

Logically speaking, Mo was born at the same time as the Primordial Light, so if the latter hadnt separated from Big Brother Huang and Big Sister Lan, it might also have become a sentient existence in the 3,000 Worlds that was equally strong by now.

However, the Primordial Light separated Yang and Yin aeons ago, and now no one knew what it looked like.

Even the World Tree had no idea.

The Old Tree had been around since the dawn of time and was connected to all the Universe Worlds in the 3,000 Worlds, so who would know something that he didnt?

Yang Kai suddenly felt devastated.

Hey! A leg suddenly landed on Yang Kais face. The force was so great that he was sent flying out and even saw stars.

When he finally found his footing, he felt something wet on his face. When he touched it, his hands were stained by blood.

He shook his head as he walked back and looked aggrieved at Big Brother Huang as he asked, Why did you kick me?

Big Brother Huang snorted coldly, You looked so depressed, like your family died or something. It was annoying to look at it.

Smiling bitterly, Yang Kai asked, Is it that obvious?

Big Brother Huang and Big Sister Lan nodded in sync.

Then, Big Brother Huang jumped up and slapped his small hand on Yang Kais shoulder while speaking like an elder, Little Brother, there is no difficulty that cant be solved. If you admit defeat before even starting, youd be better off dead. At least you could have some peace and quiet that way.

Feeling aggrieved, Yang Kai argued, Im not admitting defeat! I just thought

Dont think, Big Brother Huang interrupted Yang Kai, All beings have their own fate. Dont put everything on your shoulders because you cant bear that weight. This tragedy that is happening, its the whole worlds tragedy, not just yours. If the world would be destroyed without you, so be it.

Yang Kai lowered his head, suddenly reminded of all he had done all those years ago.

Back then, he was invincible on the battlefield. With the Soul Rending Thorn and his various Divine Abilities and Secret Techniques, he killed so many Territory Lords in Profound Nether Territory that the enemy became traumatized by his mere mention. However, even with such a huge advantage, Yang Kai still chose to make peace with them.

Didnt he do that because of this exact reason?

This war wasnt solely his struggle. No matter how strong a person was, there was a limit to their strength. This was the Human Races war, and only by the constant strengthening of their successive generations could they have hope of defeating the Black Ink Clan.

How could he have forgotten his original intention after so many years?

Yang Kai suddenly turned serious and nodded, Big Brother Huang, youre right.

Also, he saw a new side to Big Brother Huang as he didnt expect this little guy to have such insight after having stayed in the Chaotic Dead Territory for such a long time.

When Big Brother Huang heard Yang Kai compliment him, he eagerly added, Dont worry. If there ever comes a day when you Humans are defeated, your Big Sister Lan and I will charge out from the Chaotic Dead Territory and make this vast world into a dead zone so that the Black Ink Clan will be buried along with you!

Yang Kai felt his brow twitch when he heard that as he thought, [This might be Big Brother Huangs real intentions.]

No matter how isolated he and Big Sister Lan were, or how reasonably they seemed to behave, they were still avatars of chaos and destruction. When the Humans were in charge of the Universe, they could still stay here peacefully, but if the Humans disappeared from existence, nothing would be restraining them anymore. At that point, charging out of the Chaotic Dead Territory wasnt just talk.

Can the two of you stand against Mo? Yang Kai felt doubtful. According to what he knew, these two might have abilities that were on par with a Giant Spirit G.o.d or stronger; however, was that enough to rival the strength of Mo?

When he thought about it, Mo created Black Ink Giant Spirit G.o.ds while the Primordial Light created the Burning Light and Serene Glimmer; therefore, the Primordial Light might have been in the Creation Realm as well!

After pondering for a moment, Big Brother Huang replied, We arent his opponent, but nothing will happen if you dont act. Besides, we cant just sit here and wait for death.

Yang Kai exhaled lightly before sighing, Thats right. We cant just give in and wait for death to come!

No one knew whether they could find the proper catalyst, but they had to try before knowing the answer.

Slapping his cheeks, Yang Kai thought, [Cheer up, the future is full of difficulties, but you cant let that stop you from forging ahead!]

Suddenly, he thought of something. Since these two represented chaos and destruction, how could they have peacefully stayed in the Chaotic Dead Territory for so many years? Shouldnt they be freely roaming around the 3,000 worlds and releasing their strength?

When Yang Kai unconsciously asked that question, Big Brother Huang and Big Sister Lan looked at each other and saw the confusion in each others eyes.

Youre right! Big Brother Huang was puzzled, This is a good question. Why do we have to stay in the Chaotic Dead Territory?

Frowning, Big Sister Lan said, But we dont have the urge to wipe out the Humans and destroy this World. Whats more, I think staying here is quite good.

Could this be the thoughts left by the Primordial Light? Yang Kai asked.

The two couldnt answer him.

At that moment, Big Brother Huang suddenly felt frustrated, Hey! Why do you have so many questions? There arent that many whys in the world.

For so many years, they had been living their lives this way and didnt find it unusual, but this annoying Little Brother kept coming over and asking them so many questions that left them confused.

Is there anything else? If not, please leave, Big Brother Huang had no trace of politeness when he said that.

Ugh Yang Kai was speechless and thought about it before saying, Please bestow me some Yellow and Blue Crystals. Also, after so many years, the Small Stone Race

Although Yang Kai had brought away a huge batch of Yellow and Blue Crystals and a ma.s.sive Small Stone Race Army from the Chaotic Dead Territory, so many years of war with the Black Ink Clan had consumed many of the Yellow and Blue Crystals, while few Small Stone Race were remaining. The Small Stone Race soldiers still remaining were mostly the ones who had strength on par with the Seventh-Order and Eighth-Order Open Heaven Realm Masters, but thanks to their low sentience, they couldnt exert nearly as much power as the Humans.

Youre so annoying! Big Brother Huang felt a headache, Youve already taken away everything the last time you were here, yet youre doing it again.

Even though it had been nearly 2,000 years since Yang Kais last visit, that wasnt actually a long time from the Burning Light and Serene Glimmers perspective.

But despite Big Brother Huangs complaints, he and Big Sister Lan had already prepared a huge pile of supplies for Yang Kai. It didnt matter if Yang Kai didnt mention it, but now that he did, they wouldnt be stingy with him. Therefore, Big Sister Lan waved her hand, and a giant-mountain-sized pile of Yellow and Blue Crystals floated over from deep inside the void.

Then, she shouted out an order, and several Small Stone Race Armies charged out from all directions in the Chaotic Dead Territory.

Yang Kai happily opened his Small Universe, and under Big Brother Huangs constant grumblings, he put away the huge pile of materials and Small Stone Race Armies.

After that was done, Burning Light and Serene Glimmers nearly 2,000 years of acc.u.mulation were gone.

Such a huge pile of materials and reinforcements were enough to influence the final result of the war between the two races.

Without mentioning anything else, if Yang Kai distributed the Small Stone Clan Armies he received to the various battlefields, they could deliver a huge blow to the Black Ink Clan as those Small Stone Race Armies had many that were on par with Eighth-Order Open Heaven Realm Masters.

Once Yang Kai was done, he respectfully thanked the two.

Since the two Races still wanted to maintain their current situation of the war, Yang Kai wasnt in a rush to head back and distribute these Small Stone Race Armies. Also, he had to start his search for the medicinal catalyst.

I think you should try visiting the Divine Spirits Ancestral Land, before he could go though, Big Sister Lan suddenly made this suggestion.
