    Fortunately, Yang Kai had acted very carefully just now. His Divine Sense had retracted after a brief touch. Although the ck Ink nsmen around the crystal balls detected what he did, they couldn’t be bothered to care.


    “What are those?” Yang Kai asked softly.


    D-4’s expression became ratherplicated as he lowered his voice and answered, “World Spheres. They containrge amounts of World Force in them.”


    “World Force?” Yang Kai raised his brow with a look of astonishment.


    It was his first time hearing that World Force could be sealed into a container. Judging from the appearance of the so-called World Spheres, they were clearly refined artifacts.


    “Many Open Heaven Realm Masters die in each battle. After these Open Heaven Realm Masters die, their World Forces will disperse. Under normal circumstances, the ck Ink nsmen can devour and refine the World Force on the spot; however, the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. If they greedily try to devour the World Force then and there, they will most likely encounter various dangers. Besides, the ck Ink n is not allowed to devour and refine World Force at will during a battle. There is a group of people on the battlefield who are specially tasked with collecting and sealing World Force inside World Spheres. These World Spheres are considered treasures to the ck Ink n.”


    Yang Kai’s heart was heavy when he heard those words, but his expression remained unchanged on the surface.


    These World Spheres had never been seen in the 3,000 Worlds because they were useless to cultivators. On the other hand, the World Force sealed within these items was very useful to the ck Ink n.


    Yang Kai believed that these items were artifacts specially developed by ck Ink Disciples who were proficient in Artifact Refining; after all, the war between the ck Ink n and the Humans on the ck Ink Battlefield had been ongoing for countless years. It was highly probable that some bizarre objects had been produced as a result.


    During their conversation, they saw a ck Ink nsmanpleting a negotiation with the seller. Then, he took out arge handful of pitch-ck round objects that resembled copper coins. After handing these coins over, he casually reached out to grab a World Sphere and strode out of the shop.


    Yang Kai was astonished, “Does the ck Ink n have their own currency?”


    D-4 nodded, “ck Ink Coins. They have no value and cannot be used to cultivate, but they are used by the ck Ink n for trading. Every ck Ink Coin is produced by a Royal Lord, so they have the mark of that Royal Lord and cannot be replicated.”


    Yang Kai eximed in wonder, “If they are worthless and cannot be used to cultivate, then what is the significance of the ck Ink Coins?”


    Open Heaven Pills were the primary currency in the 3,000 Worlds and any kind of resources could be valued in terms of them. That was because Open Heaven Pills were Spirit Pills used by Open Heaven Realm Masters in their cultivation. Anything that was used in cirction should have its own intrinsic value.


    D-4ughed, “If they are in cirction, then there must be a reason. Let’s put it this way; if a ck Ink nsman spends a certain amount of ck Ink Coins, then they can enter a ck Ink Nest to cultivate. You should know that ck Ink Nests are the ce where those from the ck Ink n are born. Hence, entering the ck Ink Nest is like returning to their Mother’s womb. It is very beneficial for the improvement of their cultivation. Furthermore, if they want to advance, the advancement must be done inside a ck Ink Nest!”


    Only then did Yang Kai understand. ck Ink Coins might not have any value on their own, but they could be used to purchase things the ck Ink n required. That made ck Ink Coins valuable. Just the fact that their advancement had to be done inside a ck Ink Nest was enough to make the entire ck Ink n gather these ck Ink Coins.


    “Did Mastere here to buy a World Sphere?” Yang Kai saw the ck Ink nsman who brought them here lingering around the World Spheres and constantly haggling with the seller over the price. It was easy to guess the other party’s intentions.


    D-4 shrugged nonchntly, “He probably can’t afford one.”


    Their Master was only a High-Rank ck Ink nsman whose strength was equivalent to a Sixth-Order Open Heaven Realm Master. Even if he had some ck Ink Coins, what he had was not enough to pay for a World Sphere.


    As D-4 had been serving under this ck Ink nsman for a long time, he was familiar with the other party’s finances.


    Sure enough, despite his efforts, the ck Ink nsman eventually shook his head in disappointment and led Yang Kai and the others out of the shop.


    Yang Kai secretlyughed to himself, [Looks like my ‘Master’ is poor.]


    After leading Yang Kai and the others out of the shop, the ck Ink nsman walked in a certain direction without stopping.


    D-4, who had always been a chatterbox, fell silent all of a sudden. In fact, Yang Kai had the feeling that D-4 was rather nervous about something. It was not just D-4 alone. A-1 and the others also showed the same reactions; therefore, Yang Kai couldn’t help feeling curious. He did not understand what was making them so nervous.


    It didn’t take long before the ck Ink nsman led Yang Kai and the others to a gathering ce bustling with people.


    Even before approaching the area, Yang Kai detected the violent collision of World Forcesing from that direction. There seemed to be several Masters fighting each other. Moreover, the battle was extremely fierce. The explosions of their battle rang out incessantly, and blinding rays of light shed out from time to time.


    [Are fights allowed within this Fierce Wind Estate?] Yang Kai was absolutely bewildered. It had to be said that there were rules at any ce where cultivators gathered in the 3,000 Worlds that basically prohibited personal fights. On the contrary, the ck Ink n did not seem to prevent such urrences.


    The ce of battle was arge basin-like crater in the ground with a radius of several hundreds of metres. Even so, this space seemed rtively small for both parties participating in the fight. That was because the ones fighting in the crater were two Sixth-Order Masters.


    In addition, there was a Barrier Array that formed a semi-circr light dome over the crater. The light barrier was extremely powerful so even though both parties participating in battle were attacking furiously, they could not deal any damage to it.


    Manyrge ck Ink nsmen stood around the crater. Not all the ck Ink nsmen resembled Humans that were erged several times though. Many of them had peculiar and bizarre appearances. Some of them even lookedpletely like Monster Beasts. That was something Yang Kai had already noticed when he first arrived at the Fierce Wind Estate.


    The giant humanoid appearance seemed to be considered mainstream among the ck Ink n, followed by some having Monster Beast appearances. There were numerous others, some intense and grotesque, some perfectly ordinary.


    The ck Ink nsmen standing around the crater were showing expressions of great interest, as though they were watching two ferocious beasts fighting each other. They even cheered loudly from time to time.


    When Yang Kai and the others arrived, both parties participating in the fight had reached the stage where who lived and who died would be decided. They attacked each other mercilessly as Divine Abilities and Secret Techniques sted out. The violent forces within the crater ran rampant, and fresh blood sttered across the ground.


    Yang Kai looked down for a while and sighed inwardly. He did not know which Cave Heaven or Paradise these two Sixth-Order Masters fighting below were originally from. They might have held lofty positions once, or even knew each other in the past, maybe even fought side-by-side before. In the end though, they had fallen to this state. It was truly a sorrowful sight. Unfortunately, Yang Kai was powerless to stop this. There was nothing he could do to interfere in this spectacle. He could only watch silently.


    “Nu Yan, are you here to benefit me again?” A snide voice suddenly rang out from the side.


    Yang Kai turned to look in that direction and saw a tall ck Ink nsman smiling in their direction. There were several Open Heaven Realm Masters surrounding that ck Ink nsman, probably his ck Ink Disciples.


    The ck Ink nsman who led Yang Kai and the others here coldly snorted at those words, “It’s uncertain who will benefit who. Lang Ya, don’t boast so shamelessly!”


    It was only at this moment that Yang Kai realised his ‘Master’ was called ‘Nu Yan’. Although he had been travelling with his ‘Master’ for several days, the ck Ink nsman had not taken the initiative to reveal his own name. Unfortunately, he was not in the position to ask and D-4 had not told him the name of their Master either.


    It would seem that Nu Yan had a grudge against this ck Ink nsman named Lang Ya; otherwise, they would not have gotten into a dispute as soon as they encountered each other.


    “Whether or not my words are shameless boasting, you will know after you try,” Lang Ya remained smiling slightly.


    Nu Yan nodded coldly and agreed, “Good.”


    As soon as those words came out, Yang Kai distinctly noticed the expressions of D-4 and the others bing more solemn and anxious. Afterbining everything he had seen so far, he vaguely formed a guess in his heart.


    The winner was soon decided among the two Sixth-Order Open Heaven Realm Masters fighting below. Their capabilities were not very different from each other, so they were basically equals in terms of strength. However, there seemed to be a distinct gap in theirbat experiences. The one who had a deeper understanding of battle obtained the victory. Even though he paid a price, he seeded in defeating his opponent.


    When the Small Universe copsed, World Force dispersed into the surroundings. A World Sphere was thrown into the crater at just the right moment. Following the sh of a blinding light, the scattered World Force was absorbed and sealed inside the World Sphere.


    The Sixth-Order Open Heaven Realm ck Ink Disciple who won was covered in blood and one of his arms had been chopped off at the shoulder, but he endured the pain and cast a Secret Technique to stop the bleeding. When the World Sphere finished absorbing all the dissipating World Force, the ck Ink Disciple reached out his hand to grab the World Sphere. Then, he came over to one of the ck Ink nsmen standing outside the crater, knelt down on one knee, quickly reporting, “Master, fortunately I did not fail my mission!”


    The ck Ink nsman lowered his head to look at the Sixth-Order Open Heaven Realm ck Ink Disciple and nodded lightly, “Very good.”


    Reaching out his hand, he ced the World Sphere into his Space Ring and sent the Sixth-Order ck Ink Disciple to rest.


    With that, the crater became unupied and Lang Ya turned to look at Nu Yan, “Shall we have a warm-up first?”


    Nu Yan had no objections and nodded in agreement, “Good!”


    Lang Ya asked again, “Just a bout or a deathmatch!?”


    Nu Yan’s eyes overflowed with rage and hostility, “Of course, it will be a deathmatch!”


    “Bold indeed!” Lang Ya immediately turned to look at the ck Ink Disciples beside him and reached out to point at one of them, “You go!”


    The ck Ink Disciple who was picked out by Lang Ya was a fair-faced young man whose expression remained calm as he jumped down into the crater. Judging from the energy fluctuationsing from him, he was probably in the Fifth-Order Open Heaven Realm.


    Nu Yan turned to look at A-1 and the others. His gaze flickered between C-3 and D-4 for a moment, then he pointed at D-4, “You go!”


    Despite his uneasy expression, D-4 cupped his fist respectfully, “Yes!”


    It was impossible for ck Ink Disciples to refuse themands from their masters. The only thing they could do was showplete obedience.


    Yang Kai finally understood why D-4 had been so nervous since earlier. D-4 had clearly known that Nu Yan would bring them to this kind of ce and that he might have to participate in a life-or-death battle.


    Although ck Ink Disciples were willing to offer up everything to their Masters, no one would be fearless in the face of death.


    Both participating parties did not exchange any pleasantries with each other. It could even be said that the opponent cast a Secret Technique to attack as soon as D-4 flew into the crater. An impressive sword light shed towards him from the front as World Force surged fiercely. In response, D-4 hastily took action to defend himself.


    D-4 was in the Fifth-Order Open Heaven Realm, and so was his opponent. Although their cultivation was one Order lower than the previous battle, the intensity of their battle was not inferior in any way.


    The opponent was obviously proficient in the Sword Dao. With the longsword in his hand, he covered the entire sky with a curtain of sword light.


    On the other hand, the artifact in D-4’s hands was a pair of daggers. In the first ce, he had always been small-sized but agile. His figure floundered under the fierce onught from his opponent, and his situation looked very precarious.
