    Yang Kai was just replying to Hei Yuan’s questions in a perfunctory manner, but it happened to cause thetter to have some misunderstandings. Certainly, he wouldn’t try to correct him.


    “I saw you consuming a Spirit Pill in the previous battle to dispel the ck Ink Strength.”


    “Yes!” Yang Kai nodded.


    Hei Yuan leaned forward, “What kind of Spirit Pill is that? Show me.”


    Yang Kai appeared to be in a dilemma, “Master, the pill is called the Purifying ck Ink Pill, which was newly invented by the Humans. Due to the difficulty in producing them though, I was only given one pill. I consumed it on the battlefield, so there are none left.”


    “Purifying ck Ink Pill!” Hei Yuan felt his brow twitching, “When was it invented?”


    After appearing to give it a thought, Yang Kai replied, “About 20 years ago.”


    Hei Yuan gritted his teeth, “It must be thanks to these Purifying ck Ink Pills that the Humans have repeatedly fended off ck Ink Strength. Is that why there have not been any new ck Ink Disciples recently?”


    “Yes.”


    “Damn!” Hei Yuan was furious as he finally realised why there were no new ck Ink Disciples over the past 20 years. They had spected that the Humans must have invented a way to defend against ck Ink Strength, but they had no idea what it was. If he hadn’t subdued this Human named Yang Kai by chance, they still wouldn’t have found out about it.


    After blowing his top for a moment, he asked, “How difficult is it to make these Purifying ck Ink Pills?”


    Since this was an important matter, Hei Yuan had to find out all the details possible and report them to the Royal Lord at ater time.


    Yang Kai replied respectfully, “I know nothing about Alchemy, but I’ve heard some rumours that it is difficult to refine Purifying ck Ink Pills. Even the Alchemy Grandmasters wouldn’t always seed in producing them, so the sess rate is fairly low. Usually, a Squad would only be given one pill.”


    Hei Yuan’s expression turned milder. Yang Kai’s statement verified what he had seen on the battlefield. There were a total of 3 Seventh-Order Open Heaven Realm Masters in that Squad; however, other than Yang Kai, who consumed a Purifying ck Ink Pill to dispel the ck Ink Strength, the other Seventh-Order Humans didn’t take such pills even though they had been affected by ck Ink Strength as well.


    After, they fled from the battlefield and disappeared.


    This was good news for the ck Ink n as every Squad was only given a single Purifying ck Ink Pill. Hei Yuan was most worried that it would be easy to refine these pills and that all Humans would be given several of them. If that were to happen, the ck Ink n would suffer a huge setback if they were caught unprepared.


    As he set his mind at ease, he went on to ask, “Has the Old Ancestor from Yin-Yang Pass recovered from her injuries?”


    Yang Kai was startled for a moment. He wouldn’t have known that the Old Ancestor in Yin-Yang Pass was injured if Hei Yuan hadn’t asked, so how was he supposed to know the Old Ancestor’s condition?


    Since the Old Ancestor was wounded, there was no way Mu Guang was in a better state. Yang Kai wondered when the two of them had fought against each other.


    Hei Yuan nodded, “It has been about 100 years since thest great war. Regardless of how badly wounded she was, she must have recovered by now. I’m worried that anotherrge battle will break out again soon.”


    It wasn’t until this moment that Yang Kai found out it had been 100 years since the Old Ancestor of Yin-Yang Pass was wounded. In other words, there was a grand battle in the Yin-Yang Theatre 100 years ago. Even the Old Ancestor and the Royal Lord had exchanged moves at that time.


    100 years had passed in the blink of an eye, and both Races had had enough time to recuperate, so war was now imminent.


    However, the big battle in the resource harvesting area just recently would probably dy the all-out war by several years; after all, several powerhouses from both the Humans and ck Ink n were injured. It would take them some time to restore their strength.


    Just then, a Feudal Lord entered the room. It was none other than Zha Gu who cupped his fist and said, “Sir Territory Lord, we’re about to arrive.”


    Hei Yuan nodded and waved his hand at Yang Kai, “You can go back now.”


    Yang Kai responded respectfully and left the cabin.


    Upon returning to the deck, he looked into the distance and saw a huge universe fragment. It was sorge that it wasparable to a whole Universe World.


    The universe fragment was covered with ayer of darkness, which went to show that ck Ink Strength was abundant. By living in such an environment, the ck Ink nsmen would see their powers rising quickly.


    Yang Kai had lived in the ck Ink n’s domain for 2 years and followed the High-Rank ck Ink nsman he belonged to into many different areas.


    However, none of those ces wasparable to this universe fragment.


    Yang Kai soon realised that this universe fragment was directly owned by Hei Yuan, and the areas upied by his subordinate Feudal Lords would form the Territory Lord’s territory.


    Therge ship continued heading towards the universe fragment. As the ship passed through the clouds of ck Ink Strength, it soon hovered above arge city.


    The city was so vast that there was no end in sight. In the centre of the city was a gigantic ck Ink Nest that looked like a flower bud that was about to blossom. The ck Ink Nest seemed to be a living creature and every time it breathed, a lot of ck Ink Strength would be released.


    Yang Kai narrowed his eyes. Although he had seen a lot of ck Ink Nests before, the one before his eyes was undoubtedly thergest. Given enough resources, such a ck Ink Nest would be able to produce many ck Ink n soldiers in no time.


    ck Ink Nests had always been the foundation that the ck Ink n relied on to survive. ck Ink nsmen were born from the ck Ink Nests, and they also had to achieve breakthroughs inside the ck Ink Nests. If the ck Ink Nests were gone for good, the ck Ink n would be like a tree without roots or a river without a source.


    For this reason, the Humans always tried to destroy ck Ink Nests so that they could cut the enemy off at its source.


    Nevertheless, it wasn’t easy to carry out such ns. There was basically a ck Ink Nest in every ck Ink nsman’s territory. Zhu Feng even had a small ck Ink Nest in his temporary hiding ce.


    There wouldn’t be enough Humans to destroy all of these ck Ink Nests, and it wouldn’t be useful if they only destroyed a few of them, for the ck Ink n could easily create new ck Ink Nests.


    So far, the Humans still hadn’t figured out how the ck Ink Nests were born. Some people spected that they were built by the ck Ink n, but this spection was not logical because everyone who had seen a ck Ink Nest knew that this thing seemed to have a life of its own. Nothing the Humans had ever built wasparable to these ck Ink Nests.


    There were also some people who spected that the birth of ck Ink Nests was just like growing flowers. With a seed nted in the ground, it would grow into a new ck Ink Nest when it was well taken care of.


    If this spection was right though, what kind of seed was that? Where did ite from?


    Obviously, no study could be conducted. Even the Old Ancestors were unable to figure out the secrets behind the ck Ink Nests; therefore, the Humans cast this idea away. Whenever they came across any ck Ink Nests, they would just destroy them.


    Regardless, demolishing ck Ink Nests would mean immense losses for the ck Ink n.


    Therge ship directlynded in front of the gigantic ck Ink Nest. Some ck Ink nsmen were already waiting for them. It was apparent that they had learned about Hei Yuan’s return just now.


    Following Zha Gu’s lead, Yang Kai leapt off the deck and stood to the side.


    The unfamiliar Human attracted the attention of many ck Ink nsmen; however, there were already some ck Ink Disciples who resided in this ce. Although many ck Ink nsmen were curious, they soon looked away.


    Hei Yuan’s figure appeared on the deck, but instead of leaving the ship, he waved his hand. As ck Ink Strength undted, he shouted, “Wake up!”


    Following his shout, powerful beings inside therge ship’s cabin started awakening.


    Yang Kai’s expression changed as he realised that they were the Territory Lords who had been sound asleep in therge ship. Even though these auras were powerful, Yang Kai could feel that they were somewhat frail. It was obvious that they were all severely wounded.


    These Territory Lords hadn’t recovered one bit following a long time of deep sleep; therefore, Hei Yuan directly brought them to the ck Ink Nest so that they could make use of its power to recuperate.


    A momentter, some burly figures stepped out of the cabin and stood on the deck.


    The ck Ink nsmen below saluted them respectfully.


    Yang Kai stole a nce and realised that these Territory Lords were all injured as they were soaked in blood. The most severely wounded one had half of his neck cut. Yang Kai wondered who the Army Commander was that had made such a ruthless move. ck blood was still leaking out of the wound on his neck and there was a mysterious force around the wound that was stopping it from healing.


    This Territory Lord was especially unstable and seemed to be muddle-headed. It was as though he would soon lose his life if he wasn’t given immediate treatment.


    Including Hei Yuan, there were a total of 6 Territory Lords on therge ship. The 5 Territory Lords who had just awakened nodded at Hei Yuan and silently dashed towards the ck Ink Nest, soon disappearing.


    After they were gone, Hei Yuan swept a nce over the rest, “While I am recuperating, all the affairs in the territory will be handled by Gui Liao.”


    One of the Feudal Lords, who had been waiting for Hei Yuan’s return just now, bowed, “Yes.”


    There was no doubt that this Feudal Lord was Gui Liao.


    Hei Yuan then shuffled towards the ck Ink Nest, but he soon stopped in his tracks and turned his head to speak to Gui Liao, “He’s the new ck Ink Disciple I’ve taken on. Get him a Profound Yin Spirit Fruitter.”


    A hint of surprise shed through Gui Liao’s eyes as he turned to look at Yang Kai.


    In fact, he had caught sight of Yang Kai the moment thetter leapt off the deck, but he didn’t pay much attention to him; after all, it wasn’t rare for them to capture ck Ink Disciples on the battlefields.


    However, what the Territory Lord had said suggested that he valued this ck Ink Disciple highly. That was why Gui Liao was surprised.


    It had to be noted that most of the ck Ink Disciples had suffered some damage in their Small Universes, so Profound Yin Spirit Fruits were needed in order to repair them.


    Even though the ck Ink n had some reserves of Profound Yin Spirit Fruits, they were not rewards that could be given out easily.
