A resounding rumble echoed, like the earth collapsing. The massive rock from the Star Compass shattered like glass under Yu Kai's devastating sword strike, dissipating into countless fragments in the vast void. The Star Compass wasn't spared either, a startling sword mark forming across it like a hideous scar. Then, uncontrollably, it slammed into the distance, shaking the air and rippling wherever it passed. The flaming silk that had rushed towards Yu Kai was like fragile paper under this terrifying force, shredding a large section, shattering into tiny sparks that drifted down like brilliant fireworks.
Li Lingxiao and Li Zhongxiang shuddered as if struck by lightning. With a "puff," they simultaneously spat out a mouthful of blood, which traced strange arcs through the air before scattering into the void. Their faces instantly turned as pale as paper, devoid of a trace of blood. Their eyes widened in disbelief and deep terror. They had never imagined that Yu Kai could be so powerful, single-handedly resisting their combined attack. This completely overturned their understanding.
Yu Kai's chest heaved violently, like a wrecked ship in a raging storm, panting for breath. This terrifying blow had nearly drained all his strength, yet his gaze remained as resolute as a torch, burning with an unyielding flame as he stared intently at Li Lingxiao and the others, showing no sign of retreat. He knew Yang Yichen would never let him go easily. The danger was far from over, and he needed to recover quickly to prepare for the even more daunting crisis to come. At that moment, he summoned another ray of brilliant star power, its light instantly flooding into his body like a torrent, replenishing him with a trace of strength.
The battle raged, the situation escalating into a tense rage. Meanwhile, Yang Yichen, standing in the distance, witnessed the entire scene with a shudder of shock. He had never imagined that a mere mid-stage Saint King cultivator could defeat two Saint Emperors wielding precious treasures. This was completely beyond his wildest dreams. His face darkened like the clouds before a storm, so dark it threatened to drip with water. Without a moment's hesitation, he suddenly raised his hand and launched the Soul-Suppressing Pagoda directly at Yu Kai.
The pagoda whizzed past, its light dancing as it grew larger in the air. In an instant, it transformed into a towering mountain, carrying immense power as it plummeted down towards Yu Kai. Wherever it passed, space felt like fragile tofu, twisting and deforming under its weight, emitting a creaking sound as if about to break.
Facing such a terrifying pagoda, Yu Kai knew he would die if he took it head-on. With a flash of black lightning, he fled towards Saturn. Unhesitatingly, he summoned another burst of star power, accelerating his speed to the limit. He transformed into a streak of light and sped towards Saturn, leaving behind a long trail of light and shadow, like a meteor streaking across the sky.
While Yang Yichen was using all his strength to drive the Zhenling Pagoda to pursue, he roared at the scattered Li Rui, Lu Jianlin and others: "Stop him, don't let him escape back to Saturn! Whoever lets him go will be beheaded!" The voice was like rolling thunder, exploding in the void, making everyone's eardrums hurt.
As he finished speaking, Ao Xinli's Water Heart Mirror took the lead. A brilliant stream of light shot towards Yu Kai like a dazzling meteor, instantly releasing a powerful confining force, attempting to freeze Yu Kai in place. Wherever the light passed, the space seemed to be frozen by an invisible force, and a slight chill spread.
Yu Kai's heart tightened, acutely sensing the deadly threat posed by this force. He dodged with ghostly agility, narrowly avoiding the streak of light. However, before he could even catch his breath, Li Rui's spear stabbed at him with the swiftness of a venomous snake. The tip of the spear flashed with a cold light, carrying a fierce murderous intent, as if it would instantly pierce Yu Kai's heart.
At the same time, Lü Jianlin, unwilling to be outdone, swung his longsword with impenetrable force, his sword energy crisscrossing and forming a vast sword net that fiercely enveloped Yu Kai. Lei Ling'er's Thunder Whip roared again, flashing with lightning and crackling as if to completely rip the void apart, reducing it to dust.
Yu Kai was instantly trapped in a desperate situation, surrounded by enemies on all sides, fighting like a trapped beast. He gritted his teeth, roared, and once again mobilized the power of the stars. His body shone brightly, like a burning star, and he fought hard to resist the fierce siege. However, due to the previous heavy consumption, and although these talented generals were also injured, they could not withstand their overwhelming force and attack.
Yu Kai, with his unwavering willpower, sent flying one brilliant general after another, but he was unable to break free from their encirclement and blockade. In this fierce battle, he sustained multiple wounds, blood dripping from his wounds, staining his mecha red and putting him in a precarious position. Yet, his eyes still burned with an unyielding fire.
At this moment, Li Lingxiao and Li Zhongxiang watched Yu Kai repeatedly mobilize Saturn's star power, and they couldn't help but feel worried. Li Lingxiao clutched his chest, shuffling over to Yang Yichen and anxiously saying, "Yang Shuai, this Yu Kai must really be a disciple of Zhenyuan Daxian. Should we tell them to stop? The Heavenly Court has stated that once confirmed, they must not kill him and must bring him back to Heaven for trial."
"Do you think he is willing to go back to Heaven with us for trial now? Besides, I don't see any connection between him and the Great Immortal Zhenyuan." Yang Yichen stared at Yu Kai closely, frowning, with a hint of determination in his eyes, and said to Li Lingxiao.
"Marshal, Yu Kai can obviously use the star power of Saturn at will. How can he do it without the consent of the Star Lord! I hope you will think twice." Li Lingxiao continued to persuade earnestly, with a hint of anxiety and helplessness in his voice.
