MARTIAL PEAK 5524

If that was all, it would have been fine. Although Yang Kai's spear strike was powerful, it was not enough to take his life, at most he would be seriously injured.

However, at this moment, a strange force enveloped him and suppressed most of Taowu's Holy Spirit Force.

Having his Divine Sense torn apart, he was already in so much pain that he wanted to die, now his Holy Spirit Force had also been suppressed, so how could he resist Yang Kai's violent spear?

A muffled sound rang out as Taowu's head was pierced through by the Azure Dragon Spear, his eyes wide with shock and disbelief.

The power of the Holy Spirit spread out and a thick blood essence burst out, filling the air with a bloody smell.

Many Human Race masters were dumbfounded.

Many Holy Spirits also found this hard to believe.

Killed!

The powerful Holy Spirit Taowu, who was comparable to an Eighth Order Human Race master, had really been killed!

Before the results were out, whether it was the Human Race or the Holy Spirits, they all felt that it was impossible for Yang Kai to really take action. It was likely that he was trying to intimidate Taowu, otherwise he wouldn't have shown such obvious murderous intent.

Taowu was not a weakling, so who wouldn't be on guard against such a strong murderous intent?

Wei Junyang and the others had even made preparations to persuade Yang Kai. When Yang Kai's momentum reached its peak, they would take action. This way, Yang Kai would have a way out and the Holy Spirits wouldn't lose too much face. In the future, everyone would have a chance to cooperate.

But seeing Yang Kai killing Taowu just like that, it was really hard to imagine.

What made Wei Junyang and the others even more confused was that this Taowu… was simply too weak. This is not like Yang Kai killing those Innate Territory Lords. Although Yang Kai had killed those Innate Territory Lords cleanly, it was because of the Soul Shattering Spike, and he had more or less been able to launch a sneak attack.

Yang Kai's strength was great, and he was willing to tear his own Soul to activate the Soul Shattering Spike. Even an Innate Territory Lord would be in great pain after taking such a blow, so it wasn't surprising that Yang Kai had seized this opportunity to quickly kill them.

Correspondingly, Yang Kai had to pay a great price.

Didn't Yang Kai kill three Territory Lords and then stop attacking the other Territory Lords? It wasn't that he didn't want to, it was just that he didn't have enough strength.

If an Innate Territory Lord was so easy to kill, Yang Kai alone could take care of all of them, how could the Human Race have so many troubles?

What's the situation with Taowu?

Yang Kai had held the Azure Dragon Spear in front of him for several dozen breaths, yet he had still been stabbed to death. Wasn't it said that Holy Spirits were generally stronger than human race of the same realm? Could it be that these Holy Spirits from the Great Ruins Boundary were somewhat different?

The Human Race's masters were all confused, but their reactions were extremely quick. All of them secretly pushed their strength and vigilantly stared at the Holy Spirits who had come as reinforcements.

The Great Ruins Boundary Holy Spirits were extremely powerful. Now that Yang Kai had killed Taowu, no one could guarantee that these Holy Spirits would not rebel.

But the Holy Spirits had no intention of rebelling, only an uproar.

Killed!

When Yang Kai said he wanted to kill Taowu, he really did!

Compared to Yang Kai's ruthlessness, what made the Holy Spirits' hearts palpitate was the sudden change.

The Human Race powerhouses only saw Yang Kai killing Taowu like he was killing a chicken and felt that Taowu was too weak, they couldn't sense it clearly. However, the Holy Spirits had noticed something else.

The moment Taowu was killed, an inexplicable force spread out from Yang Kai's body, greatly suppressing the bloodline power of all the Holy Spirits. At that moment, the Holy Spirits felt as if they were carrying mountains on their back, so heavy that they could barely breathe.

What kind of power was that?

Most of the Holy Spirits didn't know, but only a few Eighth Order Holy Spirits did, staring blankly at the back of Yang Kai's hand.

Over there… there seemed to be some kind of mysterious marks that flickered a moment ago, but it had disappeared so quickly that no one could see it clearly.

Was that the source of the suppressive force? The Holy Spirits were all worried. If Yang Kai really had the power to suppress the Holy Spirit, Taowu's death is not because he was reckless.

But in this world, what thing could suppress the Holy Spirit power? Especially a powerhouse like Taowu.

The group of Holy Spirits from the Great Ruins Boundary hadn't been out for long, so they naturally didn't know that Yang Kai possessed the Sun and Moon Marks. In fact, there weren't many who knew about these two marks, only the upper echelons of the Human Race.

Everyone knew that these two marks were the foundation Yang Kai used to activate the Light of Purification. Without these two marks, it was impossible for the power of the Yellow Crystal and Blue Crystal to merge into one and transform into the Light of Purification.

However, no one knew that these two marks is not only used to activate the Light of Purification.

This was, after all, a mark personally bestowed by the Sun's Burning Shine and Moon's Nether Glimmer. It had both of their Source Energy.

Although Big Brother Huang and Big Sister Lan denied the idea of being the Holy Spirit's ancestors, their relationship with the Holy Spirit was indeed irrefutable. Their strength surpassed that of the Holy Spirit's, and their Source had an extremely strong suppression effect on all Holy Spirits.

Just like Dragon Clan Bloodlines, Dragon Clan with purer Dragon Veins had a natural bloodline suppression when facing their clansmen.

Back then, Yang Kai had received Smiles Old Ancestor's order to go to the No-Return Pass for the first time. Outside the No-Return Pass, Ji Old Third had appeared to provoke him.

Yang Kai had easily caught Ji Old Third in his hands, and even though Ji Old Third had transformed into a Dragon form several thousand zhang long, he had still been slapped back into human form.

He didn't rely on his own strength, nor did he rely on his Dragon Vein. Compared to the Dragon Vein, Ji Old Third was no weaker than him.

What he relied on was the suppression of the Sun and Moon Marks on Ji Old Third's Dragon Vein.

Even Ji Old Third's Dragon Clan bloodline was suppressed to the point where he couldn't resist, let alone Taowu, even if he was stronger, it would still be the same.

Soul Shattering Strike, the Source Energy suppression of the two marks, if Taowu didn't die, who would?

Slowly putting away his spear, Yang Kai turned to look at the group of Holy Spirits. When he killed Taowu just now, there were a few Holy Spirits who seemed to want to help him, but they were all suppressed by the suppression of the two marks and in a flash, Taowu had died.

Now that Yang Kai was staring at them coldly, the Holy Spirits all turned pale, not daring to breathe loudly, afraid that Yang Kai would attack them.

Even Taowu was dead, how could they be his opponent?

As a result, a strange scene occurred. The Human Race's side was waiting, afraid that Yang Kai's killing of Taowu would cause the Holy Spirits to react excessively. If that really happened, there would be a great battle today and many more people would die.

It would be a joke if such a situation really occurred.

However, how could the Holy Spirits have any intention of standing up for Taowu? Each of them was like a quail that had yet to build a nest in the cold winter, shrinking their necks and not saying a word. From the looks of it, they were a little frightened?

Wei Junyang and Ouyang Lie looked at each other in confusion.

Were these Great Ruins Boundary's Holy Spirits so afraid of Yang Kai? Although this was the first time they had come into contact with these Holy Spirits, they had already heard a lot about them. These people were much more arrogant than the Holy Spirits from the Ancestral Land and No-Return Pass. Back in the Star Boundary, they had caused quite a bit of trouble, all of which need the High Heaven Palace to clean their mess.

Fortunately, they still had some sense of propriety back then and didn't cause any life-threatening incidents. Otherwise, how could they still be cooperating now?

Indeed, compared to the Holy Spirits from the Ancestral Land and No-Return Pass, this group of Holy Spirits from the Great Ruins Boundary had a cooperative relationship with the Human Race.

They were assisting the Human Race in guarding the various war zones and were not under anyone's command.

This was also the reason why the Head Office was unwilling to mobilize them so easily.

This time, if not because the lack of manpower to deploy, the Head Office wouldn't have sent them.

However, the current situation caused many Human Race masters to secretly breathe a sigh of relief. As long as they didn't fight, there was still room for negotiation. Now, it was up to Yang Kai to decide what to do.

The atmosphere became somewhat tense as the Holy Spirits stared at Yang Kai with complicated expressions, some of them filled with fear and dread, but most of them were on guard lest Yang Kai try to kill them again.

"Zhujian!" After a long time, Yang Kai suddenly called out.

Among the Holy Spirits, a burly man with an iron tower-like body stepped forward and cupped his fists, "Yes!"

"Tell me, what did you agree to back in the Great Ruins Boundary?" Yang Kai looked at him lightly.

Zhujian was the first Holy Spirit Yang Kai had subdued in the Great Ruins Boundary, and this time it had also come. Although it had taken human form, Yang Kai recognized it immediately.

Listening to Yang Kai's question, Zhujian's heart clenched. Even now, he still remembered that Yang Kai wanted to kill him and eat his meat. If he hadn't surrendered so quickly, how could Zhujian have survived?

He had always been wary of Yang Kai, but now that Taowu had been killed, he didn't dare act presumptuously and respectfully said, "We all swear an oath by our Source that we will offer our loyalty and serve Sir for three thousand years!"

When these words came out, many Human Race masters were shocked.

This was the first time they knew that the Great Ruins Boundary's Holy Spirit had such a relationship with Yang Kai. The word 'loyalty' was quite heavy, especially for the proud Holy Spirits. All of them were masters, so none of them were willing to pledge allegiance to others.

Most of them were curious about how Yang Kai had managed to subdue these Great Ruins Boundary Holy Spirits. This was not something that could be accomplished simply by being powerful.

Yang Kai sneered, "I thought you had forgotten."

Zhujian lowered its head, "I don't dare, the Source Oath is extremely important, no one can blaspheme it!"

"Good, then what did I tell you when I sent you out of the Great Ruins Boundary?"

Zhujian immediately said, "Go to the Star Boundary to find Hua Qing Si and listen to her orders!" These were Yang Kai's words, so he naturally remembered them. In fact, there was no Holy Spirit who didn't remember them.

Yang Kai narrowed his eyes slightly and coldly snorted, "Did you tell her that?"

Zhujian awkwardly said, "This…"

Seeing him hesitate to speak, Yang Kai knew that his guess was correct. Hua Qing Si probably didn't know that he had sent these Holy Spirits to obey her orders!

Otherwise, why would these Great Ruins Boundary's Holy Spirits act like this?

"Do you want to die?" Yang Kai's eyes flashed with murderous intent again.

Sweat dripped down Zhujian's forehead as he said, "It was Taowu and the others who said to Head Manager Hua that Sir sent us to help them."

These words weren't wrong. Yang Kai had indeed asked them to go over and help, but if they really told Hua Qing Si this, it is not accurate.
