Chapter 5682: Furious Ou Yang Lei

The void rippled, and with each expanding wave, a portal gradually revealed itself. Soon after, figures emerged from the portal, one after the other.

Yang Kai quickly sealed it up again, making it appear as though nothing had happened.

Ou Yang Lie took out a Universe Chart of the Black Ink Battlefield and, after a few comparisons, he determined that they were standing somewhere in the area of the Blue Sky Theatre that was once occupied by the Black Ink Clan. It was quite far from where Blue Sky Pa.s.s was originally positioned, much closer to the Royal City.

It was at Blue Sky Pa.s.s where Yang Kai had risen to prominence, bringing Purifying Light to the Human Race and designing the Purifying Black Ink Battles.h.i.+ps, turning what had once been an ordinary Great Pa.s.s among many into a s.h.i.+ning beacon of hope.

Besides that, Yang Kais presence allowed Blue Sky Pa.s.s to establish the first forward outpost outside of a Royal City. Using the numerous Universe Paradises and Universe Cave Heavens nearby, Blue Sky Pa.s.s set up numerous traps that inflicted heavy losses upon the Black Ink Clan, severely damaging the latters foundation in the Blue Sky Theatre.

This victory set the stage for a Crusade, with the Blue Sky Army becoming the first to conquer part of the Black Ink Clans territory, earning it a reputation that echoed through the ages.

Yang Kai also took out his Universe Chart and identified the direction they needed to go in, then led his 10 companions towards the depths of the void.

Ou Yang Lie followed behind him, completely puzzled, so he asked, Junior Brother, arent we going in the wrong direction? The No-Return Pa.s.s is that way.

The direction they were taking was completely different from where the No-Return Pa.s.s was located, leaving Ou Yang Lie confused.

Although Yang Kai was tempted to explain everything to him, he chose to hold his tongue, fearing the consequences, Senior Brother, please be patient. Ill explain everything once we arrive.

Upon hearing that, Ou Yang Lie suppressed his doubts and followed silently.

Along the way, Yang Kai left several s.p.a.ce Beacons behind to be used as waypoints, knowing he would have to come back once he had escorted Ou Yang Lie and the others to their destination.

They pa.s.sed by the Royal City that was once magnificent, but was now ravaged by the previous wars. The entire Universe World was in shambles and broken into numerous fragments, faintly showing the devastation from the battle millennia ago.

When the Blue Sky Army had set forth on their crusade, the Black Ink Clans forces in the Blue Sky Theatre had not fully recovered, so they were left defenceless against the formidable might of Blue Sky Pa.s.s. In the end, the Royal City was reduced to rubble and their Army was decimated. The Old Ancestor of Blue Sky Pa.s.s, aided by some of the strongest Eighth-Order Masters, had beheaded the Royal Lord in that battle.

The Royal Lords demise marked the complete defeat of the Black Ink Clan in the Blue Sky Theatre.

But that was all in the past now, and Yang Kai had long since left Blue Sky Pa.s.s. When Blue Sky Pa.s.s went on its crusade, Yang Kai was leading his comrades into battle as part of the Great Evolution Army.

To avoid running into teams from the Black Ink Clan who were harvesting resources, the Humans had to venture deeper into the Black Ink Battlefield. Only by putting enough distance between themselves and the enemy could they avoid any disastrous encounters.

Only after a months journey beyond where the Royal City was located did Yang Kai stop and sweep the area with his Divine Sense. Here, there were many dead Universe Worlds with little evidence of mining, making it an obvious place for a fruitful harvest.

This is the spot, Yang Kai declared.

The Eighth-Order Masters didnt object, except for Ou Yang Lie, who wore a dark expression and remained silent. He might be impulsive at times and not skilled in cunning schemes, but that didnt mean he was stupid. The many signs on the way here made him understand that this mission might not be as straightforward as he had imagined.

There was a high chance that he got tricked by Big Head Mi!

While he was lost in thought, Yang Kai had already dispersed with the other nine Eighth-Orders Masters. He then opened the portal of his Small Universe, releasing all the cultivators stored inside. Besides them, there were many Wars.h.i.+ps, including two Purifying Black Ink Battles.h.i.+ps.

Ou Yang Lies suspicion grew as he took in the sight before him. The cultivators who had been released were mostly of the Fourth and Fifth-Order Open Heaven Realm, some were even in the Third-Order, and almost all of them were elderly, not the type of lineup one would expect for a significant combat mission. It was more like they were on a retirement trip.

Yang Kai turned to the Eighth-Order Masters and said, I entrust this matter to you. Here is a s.p.a.ce Beacon for each of you. Please keep it close. Every 100 years or so, I will come to find you and collect the resources youve gathered.

It would be troublesome to send everything back that tens of thousands of people had mined. Only Yang Kai could handle it personally. By handing over the s.p.a.ce Beacons, it would also be convenient for him to locate them in the future. As long as they werent too far away, Yang Kai could easily locate them and arrive instantly.

The Eighth-Order Masters accepted the s.p.a.ce Beacons and stored them carefully, except for Ou Yang Lie who was now glaring at Yang Kai with eyes spewing flames of anger.

With a wry smile, Yang Kai grabbed his arm and slapped a s.p.a.ce Beacon into his hand, apologising, Senior Brother Ou Yang, if you have any questions, please ask the other Senior Brothers later. Junior Brother has other important matters to attend to and cant stay long.

The truth was, he couldnt face Ou Yang Lies disappointment.

Turning his head, he reminded other Eighth-Order Masters, If you encounter any danger that cannot be resolved, please lead everyone to the Primordial Heavens Source Grand Restriction, where the Suppressing Black Ink Army is stationed and Dragon Clan Senior Fu Guang is a.s.suming command.

This statement caught everyone off guard. They had never heard of the Suppressing Black Ink Army and had no idea that Supreme Headquarters had made such arrangements. Moreover, they were surprised to learn that the Dragon Clans Fu Guang, who had disappeared for so many years, was actually guarding the Primordial Heavens Source Grand Restriction this whole time.

One of the Eighth-Order Master immediately nodded and said, Junior Brother may rest a.s.sured. Leave them to us and we shall protect them. But whats this about the Suppressing Black Ink Army? Can you enlighten us about it?

Everything regarding the Suppressing Black Ink Army had been done in secrecy previously to prevent news from spreading and affecting the morale of the Human Race, but there was no harm in sharing this information with these veteran Eighth-Order Masters.

Yang Kai thus briefly explained the situation with the Suppressing Black Ink Fortress and Army.

An Eighth-Order veteran suddenly realised, No wonder so many elites were rea.s.signed from the various battlefields by the Supreme Headquarters 130 years ago. It was all to form the Suppressing Black Ink Army!

Another Master asked with concern, Is the situation at the Primordial Heavens Source Grand Restriction serious?

Its still within a controllable range, and Senior Fu Guang is personally guarding that place, so theres no need to worry, Yang Kai replied.

With these words, everyone was relieved. Apart from Giant Spirit G.o.d Ah Er, who was still fighting the Black Ink Giant Spirit G.o.d in the Barren Territory, Divine Dragon Fu Guang was currently the strongest Master on the Human Races side. Having such a Master guarding the Primordial Heavens Source Grand Restriction was indeed rea.s.suring.

A moment later, under the gaze of the Eighth-Order Masters, Yang Kai took a step forward, and his figure gradually faded away.

Ou Yang Lie didnt stop him, but turned to the other Eighth-Order Masters and asked through gritted teeth, Shouldnt you all give me an explanation now?

One of the Eighth-Order Masters who had a good relations.h.i.+p with Ou Yang Lie sighed and stepped forward to explain the mission they were tasked with.

Learning that this trip was not for any major battle, but just to oversee the gathering of resources, Ou Yang Lie furiously exclaimed, Big Head Mi, I curse you and your Ancestors!

The Master quickly advised, Junior Brother Ou Yang, calm down. Although there is no war here, this place is still of great significance to the Human Race. Our soldiers need resources for cultivation and healing, and with the current shortage, we can only resort to such measures. Even compared to killing enemies on the battlefield, our mission is no less important. We are all working for the future of the Human Race!

Right, right Another Master went along.

Right my foot! Ou Yang Lie exploded, his red hair blazing like fire and his whole body seeming to be burning up. He had left Profound Nether Territory for one reason, to kill the enemy on the battlefield, not to come here and babysit these Third, Fourth, and Fifth-Order cultivators tasked with mining resources.

In a fit of rage, he strode towards the depths of Black Ink Battlefield.

Where are you going, Brother Ou Yang? The Eighth-Order Master who tried to calm him down called out in alarm.

Im going to Primordial Heavens Source Grand Restriction! Im joining the Suppressing Black Ink Army to kill the enemy! His voice echoed as he flew off into the distance.

The other nine Masters looked at each other, unsure of whether to stop him or not. In the end, Ou Yang Lie disappeared without a trace.

After a while, one of them finally said, Thank goodness he didnt go to the No-Return Pa.s.s impulsively

Going to the No-Return Pa.s.s alone was a death sentence, but going to Primordial Heavens Source Grand Restriction and joining the Suppressing Black Ink Army was still acceptable.

Dont worry, hell come back, another Eighth-Order Master said.

How do you know?

Brother Ou Yang may not be from Great Battle Heaven, but ever since he ascended to the Sixth-Order Open Heaven Realm, he has fought on the Black Ink Battlefield. He has long become accustomed to military life, and hes a true soldier. Although he has a foul temper, he wont act recklessly in defiance of orders; otherwise, he wouldnt have stayed in Profound Nether Territory for so many years just to get his transfer order stamped, the Master explained.

Everyone felt that what he said made sense. Ou Yang Lies behaviour was indeed like this. If he was someone who truly acted on impulse, he wouldnt have stayed in Profound Nether Territory for so long.

As expected, half a day later, Ou Yang Lie appeared from the depths of the void, still a little mad, but his fury somewhat subsided.

An Eighth-Order Master welcomed him back personally, patted his shoulder, and laughed, Ou Yang Lie, just accept it. Isnt this Mi Jing Luns favour to us old friends?

Everyone understood why they were sent here to look after the mining team.

Each of them had experienced countless life-and-death crises, and each had acc.u.mulated many hidden injuries. As they got older, their conditions deteriorated, and some of them had already fallen from their peak state.

They all had great pa.s.sion for protecting and serving the Human Race, but if the day came when the Human Race defeated the Black Ink Clan, cleared the ashes of war, and rebuilt order, the experience of the older generation would be an indispensable guide for the new generation.

Sending them here to look after this resource-gathering team was not only Mi Jing Luns favour, but also for the future of the Human Race!

Ou Yang Lie immediately snorted, Do I need him to take care of me? Im still strong, and age has only made me tougher! If were going to fight the Black Ink Clan, what are we old guys good for if we dont lead the way and instead shove all the heavy burdens onto those young brats?
