********** "You're not qualified for that!" Yang Kai roared. A burst of Yuan Qi erupted from his body, and the whole of him blazed like a burning fireball, radiating scorching heat.
As he spoke, Yang Kai clashed palms with Yuan Lang. With a muffled boom, Yang Kai staggered backward, while Yuan Lang let out a bizarre cry and used the momentum to flip away.
After three steps back, Yang Kai was instantly surrounded by the other three. Seeing three attacks about to slam into him, he hurriedly ducked, dodging the strike from another Separation-Union Realm expert, while simultaneously exposing his back to the weakest Blood Battle Gang disciple.
His twin palms surged forward with the force of toppling mountains and overturning seas, slamming toward the chest of Senior Brother Cai — the one with the highest vigilance.
It was this very person who had called out to Yuan Lang earlier, saving him from falling into Yang Kai's trap.
Among the four, he was the leader, and naturally the strongest. Even with his cultivation sealed, he still retained two layers of the Qi Movement Realm. So Yang Kai had made up his mind — he had to take this man down first! Once he was dead, the remaining three would pose no threat.
In the span of a single breath, Yang Kai had clashed with all four of them in different ways.
Senior Brother Cai saw Yang Kai charge recklessly at him, disregarding his own safety, and couldn't help but furrow his brow. Though he didn't know what Yang Kai was planning, an uneasy premonition stirred in his heart.
These two palms definitely concealed some terrifying secret!
Retreat! The man was decisive. Even though he didn't truly believe Yang Kai could harm him, caution prevailed, and he immediately retreated while thrusting his own palm forward toward Yang Kai's incoming strike, wanting to gauge just how strong his opponent really was.
Before his palm could even extend, he noticed a cold, sinister smile curling at the corner of Yang Kai's lips.
No good — it's a trap!
The next instant, he watched as Yang Kai's palms flickered left and right, dodging his block entirely, and pressed onward toward his chest with a fearless, death-defying momentum.
Those two palms would certainly land on him, but his own attack would also hit Yang Kai! Was this an exchange of injuries?
The thought had barely formed when Yang Kai's palms changed yet again. Those blazing hands suddenly flushed a deep crimson, as if some liquid substance had coated the palms, raising the searing temperature to another level entirely.
There was no way to dodge! A flash of ruthlessness crossed Senior Brother Cai's eyes. His Yuan Qi surged violently — let's see who dies after this exchange!
I'm still a Separation-Union Realm expert, after all. Sure, most of my power is sealed and I'm like a tiger on flat ground, but is the quality and density of my Yuan Qi still not enough to beat yours?
Two heavy impacts rang out.
Senior Brother Cai's palm struck Yang Kai's chest, while his own chest was simultaneously hit by Yang Kai's twin palms.
In that instant, the Yuan Qi guarding his chest churned violently, and it felt as if his chest were about to melt away.
This kid's Yuan Qi is incredibly pure! Shock coursed through his mind. Had his realm not been higher than Yang Kai's, that palm strike might genuinely have wounded him.
Before his shock could even subside, he felt searing waves of heat pour from Yang Kai's palms.
Accompanying this heat, Senior Brother Cai's chest erupted in excruciating pain. There was a faint sensation of being pierced through, and his entire viscera began to churn.
"Get off me!" Senior Brother Cai bellowed in fury. A burst of palm force exploded outward, and Yang Kai could no longer hold on, sent flying backward like a tattered cloth sack.
Before his body hit the ground, the weakest Blood Battle Gang disciple behind him had already thrust a sword at him. In that critical moment, Yang Kai twisted his body with all his might, and the blade pierced straight through his shoulder, opening a bloody hole at the joint.
