Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 896: Chapter 688: Yun Kai, Victory Is Certain

The colorful sky, clouds constantly piling up, with increasingly splendid colors, and the fluctuations of the spiritual tide growing stronger, eventually producing a sound resembling ocean waves.

This sound also signifies the imminent appearance of the ”Key.”

It is precisely because the ”Key” is about to appear that this ten-star level space gate, known as Forbidden Domain, has been bustling recently, with continuous entry of military forces and adventurers.

Space gates are classified into ten-star levels based on danger levels.

One-star is the lowest, ten-star is the highest.

Ten-star level space gates are also referred to as [Disaster], their space is already very stable, not suppressing the power of Kings, even allowing Emperors to enter, although their power will be suppressed.

The Forbidden Domain space gate is located at the Zhou Mountain Base City, in the city center, so a thousand-strong military force is stationed there, tightly guarding it, prohibiting regular adventurers from entering.

Of course, regular adventurers would not dare to enter this level of space gate either.

That’s not adventure; that’s seeking death.

The ten-star level space gate is extremely dangerous, and the Zhou Mountain government has long wanted to forcibly close it, but the space gate is in the city center, and bombing it forcibly would destroy one-fifth of the Base City’s area, swallowed by space turbulence.

Therefore, the contention for the ”Key” this time becomes extremely critical.

If the ”Key” can be obtained, then the space gate can be forcibly closed, relieving constant anxiety.

Due to the appearance of the ”Key,” killing has become the main theme within the space gate.

Everywhere are corpses and remains, with blood staining the ground red, making the air pungent.

In the dense jungle, five figures with a single horn on their heads fly swiftly between branches, strong winds reverberating, sometimes glancing behind with somewhat tense expressions, as if a primeval beast is chasing them in the dark depths of the jungle.

Even when encountering human squads along the way, they directly ignore them.

”The Abnormal Squad is escaping?”

A mercenary squad watched this scene with surprise, their originally tense bodies relaxing.

The other-dimensional space gate is the territory of the alien race; every ”Key” battle is primarily dominated by the Abnormals.

Especially in a ten-star level space gate.

In low-level space gates, human military forces can compensate for the disparity in strength, but in high-level space gates, soldiers have little effect, while the alien race’s experts far outnumber the humans.

”What do we do?”

Amid the fleeing figures, anxious inquiries accompanied by rapid breathing emerged, spoken in an alien language, to which someone responded after a second or two: ”No choice, we can only shake them off in the jungle; if in the sky or an open area, it’s a dead end.”

At the forefront of the team, the leading sprinting figure suddenly turned and shouted, ”They’re here.”

Before the words were finished, amidst the fierce howling, golden sword shadows wrapped around tree trunks and branches, suddenly appearing in the sight of the five, causing the figures to immediately halt and release barrier soul skills at first notice, forming a back-to-back circle, their expressions wary as they observed around.

But no sign of the enemy could be found.

Although the enemy hadn’t shown themselves, the golden sword shadows were already frantically traversing the air, moving too quickly for the naked eye to discern any trajectory, without any pattern or collision.

A minute later, the jungle returned to silence, leaving five mangled corpses on the ground.

”Crunch...” The sound of soles stepping on leaves echoed as a young man slowly emerged from the shadows.

The young man stood two meters tall, physically strong, with long brown hair, appearing around the age of twenty-three or twenty-four.

His facial features were striking, with brows and eyes like chiseled stone, a prominent nose, and dark brown eyes wild like those of a demon beast, carrying a hint of fierceness. While not conventionally handsome, he had a formidable presence that left a lasting impression at first glance.

He wore a Martial Artist’s Uniform, his exposed skin a healthy bronze like steel, although lacking a bear-like back, his muscular lines exuded a sense of power and a beauty of wild strength.

Dark gold patterns like veins flowed across his skin, appearing extremely dazzling.

The young man approached the corpses, crouched down to search, gathering valuable items, completely ignoring the silent arrival of enemies from behind.

”It’s Yun Kai!”

”With his Ancestral Demonization, he’s beyond our capabilities.”

Drawn by the combat’s shockwaves was a seven-member abnormal squad, focusing on the youth’s back without daring to act, their gaze filled with apprehension.

Half-beastman Yun Kai, a famous name across the Divine Martial Continent, renowned slightly less than Lin Feng.

In recent days, Yun Kai has slain hundreds or even thousands of Abnormals, instilling fear.

Ancestral Demonization combined with Golden Lion King makes facing a King siege fearlessly; breaking Yun Kai’s defense is extremely challenging.

”The Dragon King Hall and Star Moon Hall have already sent Emperors inside; he must be contained here to prevent his continued growth.”

An abnormal gazed coldly at Yun Kai’s back, speaking in hushed tones, ensuring Yun Kai wouldn’t overhear.

In the oppressive atmosphere, the seven-member squad watched Yun Kai leave powerlessly, without making any move, despite having two Kings in their group.

Stepping onto the Golden Sword, Yun Kai flew towards the area with the strongest spiritual tide fluctuations, fighting his way forward with unchanged expression.

”Yun Kai!”

”It’s Emperor Kai!”

”Emperor Kai is damn handsome!”

The towering figure at two meters, robust build, and dazzling dark gold tattoos were all so eye-catching; Yun Kai instantly became the focal point upon his appearance.

Occasionally, people exclaimed in surprise, some even waved to greet Yun Kai; to this, Yun Kai remained expressionless, appearing somewhat dull, offering only slight nods to those overly enthusiastic, without intention of idle chatter.

If anyone approached recklessly, golden sword shadows would intercept instantly.

In the contest for the ”Key,” enemies are not just Abnormals.

”Emperor Kai, do you know? Lin Feng made his debut by clearing ten trials consecutively, becoming one of Pure Land’s Thirteen Celestial Kings, dubbed Celestial King Hua, our Hua Country’s Celestial King.”

A tall, slender man shouted to the departing Yun Kai, evidently someone who had just entered the Forbidden Domain space gate, otherwise he wouldn’t have known such news.

The Golden Sword abruptly ceased its flight, and Yun Kai moved with the sword, gazing at the man with a questioning look.

”It’s true, this news has spread worldwide.”

The man exclaimed excitedly.

Yun Kai’s lips curled into a smile, awkward and grimacing.

”Brother Feng.”

Yun Kai murmured, displaying little surprise.

He’s a Demon Fiend who refined Earth Chart’s Golden Lion King with Ancestral Demonization; his older brother is even more extraordinary, so there’s no need for excessive astonishment.

Yun Kai merely felt sentimental.

”Brother Feng is already Pure Land’s Celestial King; I can’t fall too far behind; this ’Key’ must be obtained.”

His gaze gradually firmed, and Yun Kai soared straight into the sky on the Golden Sword.
