Chapter 4900

With Kai’s body now fully restored to peak condition, he could allow the Red Cloud Demon Lord to unleash even more power!

“I’m not boasting, but this’ll be over in a flash…”

The Red Cloud Demon Lord declared confidently.

“Alright then, Senior—take control of my body!”

Kai surrendered control without hesitation. There was no way he planned to remain trapped here forever!

A golden light burst from his body!

As the Red Cloud Demon Lord took over, the surge of energy left Xiu Rui completely stunned!

“This… Is this really the power of a first-tier Immortal Transformation monk?”

Xiu Rui stared at Kai in disbelief.

“Break!”

Kai hurled a punch at the cage!

A terrifying force erupted forth!

His cage trembled violently, and the black chains wrapped around it shattered instantly!

The cage itself collapsed, turning to dust and vanishing into the void!

Kai hovered mid-air, surrounded by countless other cages floating in the darkness.

“Mate, you’re amazing! Can you get me out too?”

Xiu Rui called out, shock and hope lighting up his face!

He had been trapped for over five hundred years. If someone could break his cage and set him free, he’d gladly dedicate his life in gratitude!

Being stuck in a cage—with no way to cultivate and no one to talk to—had been soul-crushingly dull.

“No problem…”

Kai gave a calm nod. For him, it was a simple task.

Boom!

Kai struck the cage holding Xiu Rui, and the instant his devastating force hit it, the entire structure crumbled into dust!

As it vanished, Xiu Rui’s body began to fall—he had gone so long without flying that he’d likely forgotten how!

Kai reached out, grabbed him midair, and channelled a stream of spiritual energy into him. It brought a spark of vitality back into Xiu Rui, his face regaining color.

Xiu Rui clung tightly to Kai’s hand, his eyes filled with joy and disbelief!

After all those years, he was finally free from his nightmare…
And it was all thanks to Kai. Without him, even another five hundred years might not have been enough to escape!

“Friend Chen, thank you—truly, thank you!”

Xiu Rui’s eyes welled up, tears streaming down his cheeks.

“Just a small favor,” Kai replied with a faint smile.

At that moment, Xiu Rui’s face turned red as he apologized, “I’m really sorry—I underestimated you earlier. Who would’ve thought a first-tier Immortal Transformation monk could unleash power greater than mine, even though I’m at the peak of the realm!”

Kai simply smiled, saying nothing about the Red Cloud Demon Lord’s possession.

“Friend Xiu, you’re already at the peak of Immortal Transformation. One step, one insight, and you could have ascended to the Heavenly Realm. Why choose to rely on the Ladder to Heaven’s guidance?”

Kai was genuinely curious about Xiu Rui’s decision.

“Well, I was stuck at the peak for centuries, unable to break through. Out of options, I chose the Ladder to Heaven to reach the Celestial Realm.”

“Who would’ve thought the so-called guidance would be a trap? Open your eyes, and boom—straight into a cage!”

“If I’d known, I never would’ve trusted that blasted Ladder!”

Xiu Rui sighed, full of deep regret.

Centuries wasted in that cage—for nothing!

“Friend Xiu, have you seen anyone else arrive with me?”

Kai asked, eager to know where Hu Mazi had ended up.

“No, it seemed like you were the only one. I didn’t see any companions.”

“Is your friend a human monk? If they’re from another race, they might not be locked up here,”

Xiu Rui asked curiously.

Kai nodded. “He is.”

Though Hu Mazi had immortal bones, he was still a human monk.

“That makes things difficult. There are thousands upon thousands of cages here. I wouldn’t know which one he’s in—unless the master of this prison does.”

Xiu Rui shook his head, looking completely helpless.
