MARTIAL PEAK 5925

The reason why Cang and the other nine Martial Ancestors had chosen to set up the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction here was because this place was the birthplace of the world's First Light and the initial darkness. It could be said that this place was the source of the Ink.

Inside the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, Black Ink's true body was sealed, which was a well-known fact among the Human Race.

However, no one knew what was going on inside the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, and even Cang and the others had very little information about it.

Of the ten Martial Ancestors, only Mu had personally explored the inside of the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction.

However, after she returned, she chose to sacrifice herself to merge with the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction and strengthen it, not saying a word about what she had encountered or seen inside.

Regarding the various aspects of the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, the Human Race's masters all had their own speculations, so Yang Kai was naturally no exception.

All this time, he had thought that this Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction was Black Ink's cage, sealing Black Ink's true body and its many creations. It was a place where endless evil and chaos gathered, the source of all the misfortune in this world.

But now, the situation was much more complicated than he had imagined.

Even with Yang Kai's knowledge and experience, after learning about this information, he couldn't help becoming absent-minded.

"But knowing all of this now is meaningless," Wu Kuang's weak voice once again rang out in Yang Kai's mind, "The Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction has been maintained for too long. Over the past six months, the Black Ink Clan has been constantly attacking and destroying it, so I'm afraid it won't be long before the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction is unable to maintain itself."

He paused for a moment before continuing, "Yang Kai, if you want to rescue the Withdrawing Black Ink Army, I can send you in and find an opportunity to bring them out, but honestly, the chance isn't high. If you don't want to… run away now. When the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction is broken, Black Ink's true body will completely awaken. At that time, there will no longer be a pure land in the Heavens."

"It's not time yet," Yang Kai replied softly, "And you also said that if Black Ink completely awakens, this world will no longer have a pure land, so where can I escape to?"

Saying so, he recalled his previous plan.

If the Human Race really couldn't defeat the Black Ink Clan, they could only gather all their forces and flee into the depths of the void to find another place to survive.

The Universe Furnace continued to open up new worlds, and in this vast universe, the world they're in is not the only one.

No matter how strong the Ink Force was, could it reach the end of the world?

However, if he really did that, not to mention how many people would be able to escape, those who left their homeland would eventually be forced to wander the world for the rest of their lives. This was not something Yang Kai wanted to see.

"Don't despair too much, the Human Race's army is about to arrive. When the time comes, we'll be able to deal with the Black Ink Clan outside the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction," Yang Kai comforted.

Wu Kuang's eyes lit up, "The Human Race's second expedition?"

Yang Kai nodded, "Twenty years ago, we recaptured the 3000 Worlds. More than half a year ago, we took down the No-Return Pass. A month ago, we took care of the Black Ink Clan's army that escaped from the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction. The Human Race Army is currently undergoing repairs and will soon arrive."

Wu Kuang couldn't help feeling somewhat absent-minded, "The Human Race's heritage is already so strong?"

When he saw Yang Kai come alone, he thought he was the only one, so he didn't expect Yang Kai to be able to solve the problem he was facing.

After all, this was an army of tens of millions of Black Ink Clan masters. Although there was no Royal Lord present, how could Yang Kai kill them all by himself?

"The foundation of the Human Race is more robust than any of the previous eras!" Yang Kai replied solemnly. Although there were only more than thirty Ninth Order masters, in the future, the number of Ninth Order masters would definitely surpass the peak of the Human Race by ten or even a hundred times.

"This is truly an exciting piece of good news," Wu Kuang's tone became cheerful, but just as he was about to say something, he suddenly exclaimed, "Not good, there's some trouble with the Withdrawing Black Ink Army, I'll deal with it first."

As soon as his voice fell, Yang Kai couldn't feel Wu Kuang's aura anymore. Obviously, he had gone to deal with the Withdrawing Black Ink Army's troubles.

Yang Kai stood in place, concealing himself as he stared at the gap where the Black Ink Clan's army was constantly attacking the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, suppressing his desire to attack.

Now that he was alone, even if he attacked, he wouldn't be able to deal with so many Black Ink Clan and would only expose his existence and alert them.

Right now, Wu Kuang still needed to persist for a few more days before the Human Race's army arrived. At that time, they would be able to deal with these Black Ink Clan masters.

After thinking about it for a moment, he took out a jade slip and imprinted all the information he had obtained into it before taking out another Space Spirit Bead and sending it to Li Wuyi.

As such, with Li Wuyi's help, the Human Race would soon learn about this situation, and with this information, Mi Jinglun would naturally make appropriate arrangements.

After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Yang Kai once again felt Wu Kuang's aura and quickly asked, "How is it?"

"It's safe for now, but it won't last long," Wu Kuang replied, "It's all thanks to the large number of Black Ink Clan that managed to escape the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, otherwise, the Withdrawing Black Ink Army would have been in more trouble."

Yang Kai nodded, "I'll leave the Withdrawing Black Ink Army to you."

"When will the Human Race army arrive?" Wu Kuang asked.

"The army should have already set out and will arrive here in less than a month."

"Good!" Wu Kuang let out a sigh of relief.

Before Yang Kai arrived, he had been fighting alone in this place. Not only did he have to protect the entire Withdrawing Black Ink Army, but he also had to divert some of his attention to maintain the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction.

Fortunately, Yang Kai had arrived today. In another month, the Human Race army would arrive and they would be able to solve the problem of the Black Ink Clan in the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction. At that time, it would be much easier for him.

"What do you plan to do now?" Wu Kuang asked.

Yang Kai pondered for a moment before saying, "Send me to the Withdrawing Black Ink Army first. After so many years, their supplies should have been exhausted."

When Yang Kai had sent the Withdrawing Black Ink Army to the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, although he had left behind a lot of supplies, it had been two thousand years since then. The Withdrawing Black Ink Army itself was unable to obtain any supplies, and after so many years of fighting with the Black Ink Clan, it was likely they had run out of food!

"Good," Wu Kuang nodded, "Follow my guidance to a location."

Yang Kai nodded and immediately followed the direction he had given him, moving deeper into the void.

A moment later, when he arrived outside the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, Wu Kuang's voice rang out once more, "This is the weakest point of the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction. The Innate Territory Lords from back then escaped from here."

Yang Kai immediately remembered.

Before the appearance of the Universe Furnace, a large number of Innate Territory Lords had snuck out of the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction. Yang Kai had inadvertently learned of this matter, and he had rushed to the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction alone to intercept and kill these Innate Territory Lords, causing rivers of blood to flow. In the end, he had run here to inform Wu Kuang, allowing Wu Kuang to repair this flaw.

Since it could be repaired, it could naturally be reopened.

"You only have a breath's time to enter the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, remember to seize this opportunity," Wu Kuang warned.

Even though he controlled the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, he didn't dare to open this flaw for too long. A breath of time was the safest time, and if it was any longer, some kind of accident could occur.

"I understand," Yang Kai replied.

In the next moment, a crack suddenly appeared on the Great Restriction in front of him, and from within it, a boundless black aura of chaos and evil surged out.

The crack only opened for a moment before closing again.

Yang Kai, who had been outside the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, had disappeared.

In the endless black sea, there was not the slightest bit of light, the entire world was completely black.

Yang Kai stood in the dark, concealing his figure and aura as he looked around.

He couldn't see anything, only by using his Divine Sense could he perceive anything.

Any ordinary cultivator, even if they were a Ninth Order, would definitely lose their senses in such an environment because releasing their Divine Sense would result in them being contaminated by the Ink Force.

Fortunately, Yang Kai had the protection of the Soul Warming Lotus, so even if he released his Divine Sense, he wouldn't need to worry too much.

He immediately felt a layer of mysterious power envelop his body, which transformed into a layer of fog that tightly wrapped around him.

Although this was the first time Yang Kai had come into contact with this kind of power, he was still able to instantly perceive the truth behind this fog.

This was the power of the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction.

Wu Kuang controlled the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, and as his cultivation grew, even if he couldn't compare to Cang who had been guarding this place all those years ago, he wasn't far off.

He could use the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction to protect Yang Kai and prevent him from being detected by the Black Ink Clan.

Otherwise, in this dark environment, even if Yang Kai used Thunder Shadow's Natal Divine Ability, there was still a risk of being exposed.

Any existence in this black sea would be affected by these ripples, like an invisible current.

From the information Wu Kuang had given him, it seemed that he had used the power of the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction to protect the Withdrawing Black Ink Army until now!

Otherwise, how could the Withdrawing Black Ink Army that had been swallowed by the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction survive until now? It was likely that the moment they entered the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction, they would be torn to pieces by countless Black Ink Clan masters.

Wu Kuang's voice rang out in his mind, "Don't move, the Black Ink Clan is coming!"

At the same time, Yang Kai also sensed a group of powerful auras approaching, so he quickly withdrew his Divine Sense and went into hiding.

A moment later, several powerful auras arrived, led by a Royal Lord-level master leading several Innate Territory Lords.

This group of Black Ink Clan members had obviously noticed the abnormality here and were drawn over.

The Royal Lord immediately came to the place where Yang Kai had just snuck into the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction and used his Divine Sense to scan the surroundings. Another Territory Lord came to the place where Yang Kai had just snuck into the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction and reported, "Sir, there seems to be some signs of loosening."

"Oh?" The Royal Lord's expression became serious as he personally went forward to investigate, and upon discovering that this was indeed the case, he was immediately overjoyed, "This flaw was opened nearly a thousand years ago, and now it has loosened. It seems it's not far from opening again." After a pause, he sneered, "It seems that squid is somewhat distracted!"

He made a prompt decision and shouted, "Send out a message, find the traces of that Human Race army as soon as possible and restrain the squid!"

"Yes!" An Innate Territory Lord immediately replied.

The Royal Lord then pointed out two Innate Territory Lords, "You two stay here and monitor the situation of this flaw. If there is anything unusual, report immediately!"

"Yes!"
