Chapter 1379: Primitive Spiritual Treasure
After entering the Primitive Mystic Realm once again and taking in the aura of this place, Jiang Yi felt extremely comfortable.
While he was very relaxed, many people around him were lost for words. The moment he had appeared, at least a hundred pairs of eyes had swept across towards him. Even the formidable martial artist guardian of the Primitive Mystic Realm wielding his sword also glanced over for a while.
However, these looks of surprise soon became looks of mockery and sarcasm. In their eyes, Jiang Yi was a wastrel who had come here to squander his battle merits and opportunities. Regardless of how Jiang Yi had entered this place, that meant little to them; he was not going to be able to realize anything here at his current level.
Jiang Yi ignored them; time was of the essence. He immediately started to cultivate and entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man to study the Mighty G.o.d Technique.
As expected!
Once he entered this place, his realizing speed actually multiplied. Jiang Yi felt as if his brain was turning much faster here, and many things made sense in an instant. His derivation speed also increased tens of folds. Based on this speed—within three days, Jiang Yi would be able to completely realize the first level of the Mighty G.o.d Technique.
As he cultivated the heavenly powers, he also tried to cultivate the Power of Heaven and Earth. He found out that the two were actually not in conflict. His divine core and ninth star sphere simultaneously generated heavenly powers and the power of the stars. As he continued his study of the Mighty G.o.d Technique, the speed at which the Power of Heaven and Earth surged forth also became faster.
Very good!
Jiang Yi was very satisfied. He was not bothered that he could not fathom the heaven and earth laws of this place; he concentrated solely on the task at hand.
Half a day later, his divine core was finally a third filled with heavenly powers when the heavenly powers started to transform. The heavenly powers started to tumble about violently and changed color. After two hours later, all the heavenly powers had transformed into a dark-gold color; the aura of these heavenly powers also evidently had grown much stronger.
The heavenly powers in the divine core took a long time to cultivate. After filling a third of the divine core, these heavenly powers would change color. That implied that one’s heavenly powers had cultivated till the Demon-Killing Battle General Realm. If these heavenly powers filled up to two-thirds of the divine core and changed color again, one would have reached the Demon-Killing Battle King Realm. Once the divine core was completely filled with heavenly powers, one would have reached the Demon-Killing Battle G.o.d Realm. Beyond that, heavenly powers alone were no longer sufficient. One had to realize powerful laws and special mystical abilities or learn unique secret arts.
The speed at cultivating heavenly powers had indeed gone slower!
After the golden heavenly powers had become dark-gold, Jiang Yi realized that his cultivating speed had at least slowed ten times. However, the dark-gold heavenly powers and golden heavenly powers’ difference in power was significant; it was understandable that the cultivation speed had been lowered. If not, everyone could easily cultivate until the Demon-Killing Battle G.o.d Realm already.
Jiang Yi did not bother with cultivating his heavenly powers anymore. He focused on realizing the Mighty G.o.d Technique and continued to derive and fathom it. A day and a half later, Jiang Yi stopped once again. Something unexpected had happened. Not only him, but everyone around had been jolted awake as well.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A low primordial sound rang out from the skies. It seemed as if there was a thunderous roar coming from within the clouds. At this moment, the heaven and earth spirit energy in the Primitive Mystic Realm suddenly became disrupted; no one could cultivate. That was why everyone had been startled awake. Furthermore, this low, thunderous sound was affecting everyone’s soul spirits directly; no one could settle down to realize either.
What’s going on?
Jiang Yi raised his head and stared up into the sky. Every moment in this place was extremely precious. Jiang Yi had not reached the Phenomenal Stage of the first level of the Mighty G.o.d Technique. If he delayed any further, he would need to realize for a long time outside in order to reach his goal.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The thunderous sound grew steadily louder as the clouds started to move faster and faster. A strange, suffocating aura started to travel downwards from above. Jiang Yi was slightly fl.u.s.tered and looked towards the sword-bearing formidable martial artist guarding this Primitive Mystic Realm. However, that guard’s eyes still remained closed; he did not move an inch and resembled a statue.
Eh?
Jiang Yi looked all about him and realized that everyone had stood up, their eyes gleaming as they were fixated on the skies as if divine roots were going to fall from it. Some Demon-Killing Battle Kings were so agitated that they kept on trembling.
Could it be divine roots and treasures were really going to rain down?
If even a group of Demon-Killing Battle Kings and Demon-Killing Battle G.o.ds could be so agitated, Jiang Yi was curious to see what was going to happen. He looked upwards towards the sky and then leaned towards a Demon-Killing Battle King nearby. He asked quietly, “My Lord, what has happened?”
That Demon-Killing Battle King gave Jiang Yi a look and continued looking at the sky, not uttering a single word. Jiang Yi scratched his nose, embarra.s.sed as he walked towards another person, smiled, and asked, “Brother, will divine roots be falling from the sky?”
This person answered Jiang Yi. However, he looked at Jiang Yi mockingly and spat out, “Idiot!”
“d.a.m.n…”
Jiang Yi rolled his eyes and walked about to his spot without asking anyone else. Everyone here looked down on him; no one was going to answer him. He could only continue to look at the skies as he waited.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The roaring sound continued. However, nothing else was happening. Time continued to flow as two Lower-Domain days had pa.s.sed. However, that noise continued to resound, with nothing else out of the ordinary taking place.
Jiang Yi had been looking upwards for two days; he felt as if his neck was about to fall off. He decided to sit down and not bother about it anymore. Even if a cardinal treasure was to drop from the skies, he would not be able to get his hands on it. There were almost a thousand people here. Half were Demon-Killing Battle Kings while the other half were Demon-Killing Battle G.o.ds; could he compete against them?
Everyone was standing anxiously. Only Jiang Yi sat down leisurely. Jiang Yi’s moves made him stand out. However, after many gave him a glance, they all ignored him again. Indeed, Jiang Yi’s current strength was not a threat to them at all. He was but cannon fodder.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Another day had pa.s.sed; Jiang Yi was getting impatient. He wanted this to be over as time was precious, and he wanted to get on with his cultivation.
Boom!
After another six hours, thunder from a clear sky exploded; and Jiang Yi spat out a mouthful of fresh blood as the impact hit him.
Following that, a terrifying pressure weighed down on everyone, and no one could move at this moment. Demon-Killing Battle Kings were forced to their knees immediately. Jiang Yi was worse off; he laid flat on the ground, his face touching the ground. All the bones in his body started to crack; it felt as if the pressure was going to crush him. Even his internal organs had been injured.
“Hot!”
All these were not the crux. The starchy clouds in the sky suddenly parted, and a little crevice could be seen. Following that, an extremely hot aura shot out. As Jiang Yi’s Fire Spirit Pearl was within his interspatial ring, his body suddenly felt as if it was being roasted on a rack; he was feeling extreme pain and could even vaguely smell a charred smell.
Power of Heaven and Earth!
As the temperature grew higher, Jiang Yi could only activate his Power of Heaven and Earth to make his body instantly tens of times stronger. He strenuously moved his interspatial ring, and the Fire Spirit Pearl appeared and was held in his hand. He huffed and puffed loudly as a surge of energy promptly surfaced from the Fire Spirit Pearl, and that burning sensation at last disappeared.
Hoo-hoo!
Jiang Yi huffed and puffed loudly. He also did not have the time to monitor what strange things were going on in the sky. As he had not activated his Power of Heaven and Earth just now, his internal organs had been severely damaged; he was puking blood now. Now that he could withstand that pressure now, he immediately started to recuperate and stop the bleeding.
Eh?
He suddenly realized that many divine senses were locked onto him. Furthermore, killing auras were being targeted at him as he opened his eyes, startled. What he saw was pair after pair of jealous eyes filled with murderous glares.
Just as he was feeling utterly bewildered, a streak of red light shot down from the crevice in the sky. Its speed was frightening as it struck Jiang Yi directly. A pressure a few times stronger than the previous one weighed on him heavily. All his bones started to crack instantly as his body was turned into mud. He immediately fainted.
What is that?
Before he fainted, he could vaguely feel a streak of red light entering his body as it swiftly surged into his Fire Spirit Pearl. After that, he fainted and knew nothing else.
After the red light entered Jiang Yi’s body. The thunderous noise also disappeared as the glue-like clouds started to gather again. The pressure being felt by everyone also suddenly dissipated. At this moment, everyone could finally move.
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
Countless figures immediately rushed towards the unconscious Jiang Yi. It was clear they wanted to steal that red light that had entered Jiang Yi. However, just when they were about to attack, the guardian protecting the Primitive Mystic Realm unleashed his sword by just an inch as a bone-cutting icy voice rang out: “The Primitive Spiritual Treasure is sentient and can choose its own master. Since it had chosen this lad, this is something that has been ordained. Whoever dares to s.n.a.t.c.h it will die! Also, whoever dares to leak the news that he has obtained the Primitive Spiritual Treasure will be hunted and killed by all Demon-Killing Pavilion disciples!”
