Bab 5064, Cacat
Orang-orang dari Jalur Yin-Yang memilih Hei Yuan karena dia sangat dihormati oleh Raja Kerajaan Mu Guang, dan dia juga salah satu Penguasa Wilayah yang paling kuat. Lebih penting lagi, dia sering mengunjungi Kota Kerajaan, sehingga akan lebih mudah bagi Yang Kai untuk mengumpulkan informasi; namun, Yang Kai tidak tahu seperti apa rupa Hei Yuan, dia juga tidak tahu apa yang akan dilakukan orang-orang dari Jalur Yin-Yang untuk memastikan bahwa Hei Yuan-lah yang akan memodifikasinya.
Untuk mengetahuinya, dia tidak punya pilihan selain bertanya-tanya.
Saat memikirkan hal ini, dia menoleh untuk melihat Tuan Feodal di tempatnya dan menangkupkan dia, Bagaimana saya harus memanggil Anda, Tuan?
Tuan Feodal terluka ketika dia berada di area pemanenan sumber daya sebelumnya, tapi setelah mendengarnya, dia menjawab sambil tersenyum, Namaku Zha Gu. Panggil saja aku Zha Gu.
Yang Kai mengangguk lembut, Jadi, itu adalah Tuan Zha Gu.
Zha Gu jelas senang dengan gelar kehormatan itu sambil tersenyum cerah. Dia menampar bahu Yang Kai dengan tangan besarnya dengan penuh semangat, Jangan terlalu sopan padaku. Karena kami berdua bekerja untuk Tuan, Anda dapat memberi tahu saya jika Anda memerlukan bantuan di masa mendatang.
“Terimakasih banyak.” Yang Kai mengungkapkan rasa terima kasihnya, lalu mengangkat topik utama, Siapa nama Tuan kita?
Dengan ekspresi serius, Zha Gu menjawab, Tuan bernama Hei Yuan di klan. Dia adalah salah satu dari 5 Penguasa Wilayah teratas yang bekerja untuk Raja Kerajaan. Jadi, anggaplah diri Anda beruntung karena telah tunduk kepada Tuan.
[Ini benar-benar Hei Yuan!] Yang Kai menenangkan pikirannya. Tampaknya semuanya berjalan sesuai rencana.
Zha Gu menghela nafas dan menoleh ke arah kabin, Selain Tuan Hei Yuan, Tuan lain yang bertanggung jawab atas wilayah ini telah dihancurkan oleh Manusia. Saat kita kembali, Tuan Hei Yuan kemungkinan besar akan ditegur oleh Raja Kerajaan. Kemudian, dia menenangkan Yang Kai dengan mengatakan, Karena itu, Tuan kita selalu dihargai oleh Raja Kerajaan, jadi hukumannya tidak akan berat. Kebanyakan sebagian wilayahnya akan dilucuti. Lupakan. Mari kita tidak marah. sepertinya Anda tidak bisa bertahan lebih lama lagi. Temukan tempat untuk dirimu sendiri dan istirahatlah.
Yang Kai mengucapkan terima kasih lagi dan duduk dengan kaki bersilang di geladak. Kemudian, dia memasukkan beberapa Pil Roh ke dalam mulutnya dan mengatur pernapasannya.
Dia berhasil mengetahui banyak hal melalui percakapan singkatnya dengan Zha Gu. Setidaknya, dia akhirnya menyadari bagaimana orang-orang dari Jalur Yin-Yang memastikan bahwa Hei Yuan-lah yang akan merusaknya.
Selain Hei Yuan, Penguasa Wilayah lainnya semuanya tersingkir oleh para penggarap Manusia; karenanya, hanya Hei Yuan yang bisa bergerak.
However, the Humans must have paid a hefty price in order to achieve this result. To severely injure so many Territory Lords, the Eighth-Order Division Commanders must have suffered serious injuries themselves. To the Black Ink Clan, the best way to recuperate was to fall into a state of deep sleep, and they would recover quicker if they were able to rest inside a Black Ink Nest.
Presently, there were several Territory Lords on this large ship, and apart from the wounded Hei Yuan, the other Territory Lords were sound asleep. Yang Kai couldnt help but have the urge to secretly kill those Territory Lords.
If he could destroy these Territory Lords here, the pressure they faced in the Yin-Yang Theatre would lessen.
Having said that, he had a more important task at hand, so he suppressed this urge.
With Hei Yuans large ship leading the way, the battered Black Ink Clansmen headed to the Black Ink Clans territory.
The outcome showed that the war was truly bloody.
A moment later, a ray of light approached him from a distance and landed beside him.
Wu Qing, who had arrived at this place first to investigate, asked, How is it? Is there any news from the Inner Sanctum?
Tang Qiu, who came later, replied, En, Ive just received some news. Yang Kai didnt return to the Inner Sanctum. Have you found anything here?
The situation is just like what Xu Ling Gong and his Squad reported, but theres a notable discrepancy.
What do you mean? Tang Qiu asked with a frown.
Look over there, Wu Qing suddenly pointed in a particular direction.
Tang Qiu looked intently in the same direction, then his expression changed, Those look like universe fragments That brat gave up parts of his Small Universe?
Wu Qing nodded, Xu Ling Gong and his Squad told us that Yang Kai fell into a perilous situation, but they had no idea what happened next. Apparently, Yang Kai sacrificed some parts of his Small Universe after they were gone, which was why they didnt see it.
With a solemn expression, Tang Qiu said, His foundation must have been damaged after he gave up some parts of his Small Universe; however, those from Blue Sky Pass told us that he has obtained a World Tree clone which replaced the World Spring he owned. With the clones presence, not only is he immune to the corruption of Black Ink Strength, but it can also apparently repair the missing parts of his Small Universe. Obviously, he did that in order to fool the Black Ink Clan, so it could be considered a clever move. Now, it seems that everything was well under his control. If he were in danger, he wouldnt have sacrificed parts of his Small Universe to weaken himself.
Wu Qing nodded, We can only hope that he has been subdued by Hei Yuan and become his Black Ink Disciple. I was initially worried about this part of the plan as it had the most uncertainty, but his actions seem to have made up for it.
Even though Wu Qing didnt point out what the cause of the uncertainty was, Tang Qiu was fully aware of it. In fact, the cause was glaring when they were devising the plan. However, there was nothing they could do about it, so they could only hope that Yang Kai would be lucky enough.
Yes, I was worried about it as well. Even if he has successfully pretended to be corrupted, his secret will be exposed if Hei Yuan decides to examine his Small Universe.
Yang Kai was only in the Sixth-Order Open Heaven Realm when he pretended to be a Black Ink Disciple previously, and the person who corrupted him was just a High-Rank Black Ink Clansman, so it never crossed the latters mind that Yang Kai had retained his sanity, so he never thought to examine his Small Universe.
Moreover, the Black Ink Clansmen had always believed that the Small Universe of a Sixth-Order Open Heaven Realm Master hadnt materialised, so there was no need to inspect it.
Nevertheless, things were different now as Yang Kai was in the Seventh-Order Open Heaven Realm.
If Hei Yuan suddenly had the urge to ask Yang Kai to open up his Small Universe to him, would the latter agree to it or would he be forced to flee? As soon as the Small Universe was opened, his secret would be exposed.
With that said, there was only a slim chance that this might happen; after all, a Territory Lord had personally made a move on a Seventh-Order Human, so he probably wouldnt doubt whether he had succeeded. However, accidents happened when one least expected them to.
Now though, during the intense battle, Yang Kai had even given up some parts of his Small Universe, which could effectively fool the Black Ink Clan; after all, no Human would want to go through the pain of cutting off parts of their Small Universe if there was any other choice.
It could be said that Yang Kais action landed him in a safer situation.
Moreover, as far as the Black Ink Clan was concerned, the Four Universe Pillars had always been in the possession of the Eighth-Order Open Heaven Realm Masters. Seventh-Order Humans didnt have the right to own these treasures that could ward off Black Ink Strength.
If nothing unexpected happened, Hei Yuan most likely wouldnt try to examine Yang Kais Small Universe.
Given his capabilities, even if something had gone wrong, he could have fled from Hei Yuan. Since he never returned to the Inner Sanctum, it means that he must have followed Hei Yuan to the Black Ink Clans territory. Tang Qiu let out a sigh, The only thing we can do now is go back and recuperate. As soon as he finds some useful information, there will be an epic battle to fight.
The next moment, they activated the Universe Transference Law and two Grand Arrays appeared beneath their feet.
As a light flickered, they disappeared from the spots and returned to Yin-Yang Pass.
The Black Ink Clan had successfully retreated. Along the way, some teams left the larger group and returned to their own places, but the large ship led by Hei Yuan was still heading towards the depths of the void. It wasnt certain where the ship was going.
On the deck, Yang Kai silently adjusted his breathing and recuperated. He had exerted himself and even given up parts of his Small Universe in the previous battle. These losses couldnt be made up for in short order.
It could be said that the heritage he had accumulated over the years was almost wiped out due to his actions. If he hadnt consumed a High-Rank World Fruit picked from the World Tree clone, his heritage would have plunged to when he just ascended to the Seventh Order.
Even so, he had lost a few hundred years worth of cultivation by giving up a part of his Small Universe twice.
Black Ink Clansmen were seen recuperating on the deck. The ones who had the right to stay here were all Feudal Lords, so it was expected that they were not friendly to Yang Kai; however, considering the fact that Hei Yuan truly treasured Yang Kai, they wouldnt dare to make things difficult for him despite feeling displeased.
Moreover, Zha Gu was also seated beside Yang Kai as he was treating his wounds.
A few days later, all of Yang Kais flesh wounds had almost completely healed. However, the losses to his Small Universe couldnt be made up in a short time, especially the missing pieces. Even though he had the World Tree clone to help repair it, it would take him several years to fully recover.
When Yang Kai was meditating one day, he suddenly heard Hei Yuan calling out to him. He quickly got to his feet and headed to the third floor of the large ship.
As he followed the voice, he soon found Hei Yuan in a luxurious room.
Although Hei Yuan still appeared pale, he had clearly restored some of his power. At that moment, he was seated on a large chair with his chin resting on his palm. He seemed to be lost in thought.
Master! Yang Kai called out in a subservient manner.
Hei Yuan didnt respond to him as he was still thinking about something. A while later, he took a deep breath and straightened up, Whats your name?
Yang Kai reported his name.
Hei Yuan nodded gently, Human names are so strange. In any case, Ive asked you to come here because I have some questions for you.
Please go ahead, Master. Yang Kai remained respectful, which was expected of a Black Ink Disciple.
You must be an important figure on the Humans side, right?
I was just the Squad Leader of a Squad.
Youre just a Squad Leader? Hei Yuan was surprised, Given your strength, you couldve held a more important position. According to the classification of the Humans, you should be good enough to be the Battalion Commander.
Dengan ekspresi bangga, Yang Kai menjawab, Tidak ada Master Orde Ketujuh lain yang menandingi saya; namun, aku tidak mahir dalam memimpin prajurit. Dalam pertarungan sebelumnya, kelakuanku agak ceroboh, jadi mereka hanya mengizinkanku menjadi Pemimpin Pasukan.
Setelah mendengar penjelasannya, Hei Yuan berkata, Saya mengerti. Pantas saja kamu punya nyali untuk menyergap begitu banyak anggota Black Ink Clan padahal kamu hanya punya satu Squad bersamamu. Anda sangat ingin mendapatkan pahala, bukan?
Yang Kai segera ikut bermain dengan mengatakan, Maafkan saya, Guru.
