For an Open Heaven Realm Master like Yue He, a century was indeed like a snap of ones fingers, but it was completely different for Yang Kai.

The Star Boundary was in a precarious situation. It was in danger and its World Principles were collapsing. If Yang Kai couldnt find the World Tree to repair the Star Boundary soon, the entire Universe World would die sooner or later.

[A century? Can the Star Boundary hold on till then?]

Young Master, what are you thinking? Yue He couldnt help but ask, looking at the change in Yang Kais expression.

Yang Kai furrowed his brow, looking at her; he was rendered speechless, In any case, you are an Open Heaven Realm Master, and a Fifth-Order one at that. Why are you humiliating yourself?

Yue He asked, surprised, How am I humiliating myself?

Yang Kai continued, shaking his head, I am just a trivial Emperor Realm Junior. How can you allow yourself to address me as Young Master? She had said the same before the old man surnamed Kang as well.

Yue He pursed her lips into a sweet smile, Oh, thats what you are referring to. Im happy to do it, so what?

Do as you wish! Yang Kai didnt want to dwell on this topic. He hesitated for a moment before asking, Can I ask you a question?

Yue He turned serious, Ask ahead.

Will frequent use of the Power of Yin, Yang, and Five Elements in ones Dao Seal affect it in any way?

Yue He was astounded, Why would it affect ones Dao Seal? Since its your power, it will always be yours. She suddenly furrowed her brow, Why dont you even know this? Lan You Ruo didnt tell you?

Yang Kai explained, Ive only been in the Outer Universe for about a year. I dont know much about many things. Usually, Proprietress didnt pay attention to my cultivation.

Thinking about it though, since it was the Power within his own Dao Seal, why would it matter if he used it? In the Seven Wonders Land, he had once used his Wood Element to assist the growth of the Fire Spirit Fruit Trees after all.

After giving it a thought, he realized that he had made a wrong assumption.

Yue He was mouth agape in shock, You only entered the Outer Universe a year ago?

Whats the problem?

Yue He slowly shook her head, I thought that you had been with Lan You Ruo for a long time. So its like that. How many Elements have you gathered?

Yang Kai naturally had nothing to hide; furthermore, since he was the one asking for advice, he would obviously speak the truth, Two, Wood and Fire.

Yue He continued, The Yin, Yang, and Five Elements have their own characteristics. Wood is filled with vitality and is best for healing and cultivation. Fire is hot and explosive, suitable for attacking. Metal is sharp and aggressive. If its applied to an artifact, it boosts the offensive power of that artifact. Earth is thick and heavy, so its defense is outstanding. Water is formless, making it suitable for all roles from healing to offense to defense. As Yin and Yang, they both have their own effects. The battle between the Masters below the Open Heaven Realm Masters is basically a competition of quality and control over the Powers of Yin, Yang, and Five Elements.

Yang Kai appeared to be pondering it deeply, but soon nodded before requesting, Please enlighten me!

Yue He stated, Attack me!

Saying so, a yellowish brown aura suddenly covered her entire body. A tremendous Earth Element was congealed in that aura. Obviously, Yue He had mobilized the Power in her Dao Seal for defense.

Yang Kai casually launched a palm attack at her. He had wanted to try this combat style, so he held nothing back. The moment he swung his palm, a reddish aura suddenly surged around it, radiating tremendous heat.

A deafening bang immediately followed. Yue Hes figure shook as a ripple visible to the naked eye spread over the yellowish brown aura covering her body before it fiercely caved in. Not only that, Yang Kais palm also sank in. The consolidated defense around her body seemed to be on the verge of shattering.

Fortunately, Yang Kai timely withdrew his palm.

Yue Hes beautiful eyes widened in shock, looking at Yang Kai, What Order of Fire Element did you condense?

Whats wrong? Yang Kai looked at her in confusion.

Yue He murmured, As I just said, the battle between cultivators below the Open Heaven Realm is a competition between the quality and control of their Yin, Yang, and Five Elements. The Earth Element I have condensed is Fifth-Order, so any Power below Fifth-Order would not put a dent in the defense created using it, unless one struck multiple times. But you nearly broke my defense in just one palm... Did you refine a Sixth-Order Fire Element material? No... thats not right either. Its impossible for a Sixth-Order Fire Element Power to have such tremendous power... Could it be of Seventh-Order!?

Just as she spoke of this, Yue He covered her red lips with her hand as her pretty eyes quivered in shock.

Yang Kai was also astounded. He hadnt expected Yue He to draw such a conclusion from just a casual attack, and her inference was not wrong. The Golden Crow Fire was absolutely not just Seventh-Order!

Damn! Yue Hes face turned ashen, Lan You Ruo, youve gone mad! You actually dare to do this!?

Who knows why, but Yue Hes face turned as pale as paper and she abruptly stood up while speaking, clenching her fists so tightly her knuckles had turned white.

What does this have to do with Proprietress? Yang Kai frowned.

Yue He ground her teeth as she replied, Didnt she assist you in condensing your Fire Element? Yang Kai had told her himself that he had been in the Outer Universe for just about a year, so how could he have strength and resources to find such a High-Order Open Heaven material?

It must be known that a Seventh-Order material was worth over a hundred million Open Heaven Pills! She didnt believe that Yang Kai possessed such wealth; furthermore, it wasnt something he could buy unless Lan You Ruo helped him.

It was quite natural for her to make such an assumption as she had no idea that Yang Kai had his own opportunities.

Yang Kai didnt want to explain, but he was a little curious so he instead asked, So what? Doesnt condensing higher Order materials just mean breaking through to a higher Order Open Heaven Realm?

You dont understand at all! Yue He shook her head. Suddenly, she asked another question, What about your Wood Element? It couldnt also be Seventh-Order, right?

Yang Kai himself was wondering about its Order, only figuring that the essence of the Immortal Tree should be very high.

Yue Hes face, seeing his reaction, turned even paler. She crouched down and solemnly looked at him, Never, ever let anyone know that you have condensed Seventh-Order Elements, promise me!

There was a pleading look on her face as if she was requesting something very important.

A confused look appeared on Yang Kais face as he wondered, [Has she gone insane? We dont have that deep a relationship.] Had it not been for Yue Hes previous conduct, he would have parted ways with her already. Still, Yang Kai felt really uncomfortable when she was talking to him in this tone.

His reaction didnt go unnoticed by Yue He and her face turned slightly red as she tucked her hair behind her ear, stating, I know that there are some misunderstandings between us, and you dont trust me much, but please believe me when I say I will never try to harm you...

She hesitated for a while before continuing, There was once a man who was monstrously talented, overwhelming all other geniuses in his generation. Just like you, he condensed Seventh-Order Elements, and throughout the entire 3,000s World, no one below the Open Heaven Realm was his opponent. He had even fought a Low-Rank Open Heaven Realm Master to draw. But in the end, he died.

How did he die? Yang Kai furrowed his brow.

Yue Hes eyes flickered with a sliver of sadness, The tallest tree in the forest always faces the strongest winds. Do you know that Lan You Ruo herself had a chance to break through directly to the Seventh-Order?

I heard something about it.

Then do you know why shes stuck in the Sixth-Order? Yue He lightly sneered.

Yang Kai shook his head, Ive never heard the reason.

Because if she tried to break through to the Seventh-Order, she would be dead! Therefore, she only advanced to the Sixth-Order. She did so just to safeguard her dog life! Yue Hes tone was solemn.

Yang Kai unhappily rebuked, Proprietress has done me many big favours, dont speak ill of her.

Yue He added in a cold voice, If she was really thinking of your own good, she wouldnt have let you condense Seventh-Order Elements! She is only harming you just like back then... back then when... While speaking, Yue Hes eyes turned wet as she choked with sobs.

Yang Kai, seeing this, didnt know what to say. He could clearly tell that there was some kind of deep grievance between the Proprietress and Yue He. They should have some past grudges between them, as well as a complicated story.

After a while, Yue He wiped the corner of her eyes before exhorting in a lonesome voice, In any case, you must remember this. You should never let anyone know about your secrets. And as for the Dragon Artifact, it would be better if you never used it again; otherwise, you would be in big trouble after you leave the Grand Ancient Ruins Boundary.

After advising him so, Yue He turned around and left, her figure looking bleak and lonely.

Yang Kai, watching her departing back, sunk into his own thoughts. In fact, he didnt need Yue He to specifically tell him to hide his secrets. Only, judging by how serious Yue He had warned him, he realized he needed to be extra careful in the future. As for the Dragon Artifact, the Azure Dragon Spear, Yang Kai actually couldnt wait for the Dragon Clan to come looking for him. He was alone and had no one to rely on in the Outer Universe, so it would be great if he could get in touch with the Dragon Clan.

After Yue He left, Yang Kai tried to manipulate Space Principles to see if he could tear space and leave the Grand Ancient Ruins Boundary.

According to Yue He, they would be here for at least a decade and possibly up to a century, but if he could shatter the Void and leave this place, he wouldnt need to stay.

Furthermore, he had faced this kind of situation many times before, so Yang Kai wasnt unfamiliar with it.

But after a few tries, he discovered that the World Principles of the Grand Ancient Ruins Boundary were extremely firm. He couldnt break through the World Barrier with his current mastery of the Dao of Space.

Yang Kai couldnt help but be a little frustrated. It seemed that he would have to find some other way or wait for the Grand Ancient Ruins Boundary to close by itself.

Senior Brother Yang! A sweet voice suddenly rang in Yang Kais ears, interrupting his thoughts.

He looked up and saw Chen Yue standing right before him. Her eyes were completely glued on him, and when their eyes met, a slightly red hue embellished her pretty face.

Yang Kai asked, nodding, Whats wrong?

Chen Yue replied, Nothings wrong. Yueer just wanted to thank Senior Brother Yang. Had it not been for Senior Brother Yang, I would have been dead.

Yang Kai humbly stated, It was nothing. Dont worry about it.

Chen Yue continued, It might be nothing for Senior Brother, but it was a life-saving grace for me. This Junior Sister is unable to repay your kindness right now, but if Senior Brother needs anything from me in the future, please just say it. Yueer will do everything to fulfill it.

Yang Kai raised his hand, stating, You dont have to be so serious. Brother Meng and I are old acquaintances. Since you are his friend, then you are also my friend. Its only right and proper to help each other out.

Chen Yue asked, How did Senior Brother and Senior Brother Meng become acquaintances? Why havent I heard Senior Brother Meng mention it before? Her eyes were brightly shining, as if she was looking at some rare treasure.

If Junior Sister wants to know about it, why not ask Brother Meng? He can tell you all about it. Yang Kai pointed in a certain direction.

Chen Yue turned to look and saw Meng Hong approaching and her expression immediately turned a little unnatural, but she still put on a smiling face when Meng Hong arrived by her side, I came to thank Senior Brother Yang.

Meng Hong nodded his acknowledgment, Thats alright, but Junior Sister, you are injured. You shouldnt move around too much. You should focus on recovering first.

Chen Yue obediently agreed, Then I will be on my way. Please continue.
