Chapter 1520: Dao Heaven Spiritual Treasure
Jiang Yi had not predicted that Heavenly King You would appear!
The three supreme commanders stood at the top of the hierarchy. Legend had it that they were upright and plainspoken. That was why even though problems did crop up here and there in the Demon-Buster Army, they never blew up out of proportion. For example, n.o.body ever started a fight inside the Demon-Buster Army Camp. These rules had never been broken ever since the Demon-Buster Army was established!
From the way Jiang Yi looked at it, Heavenly King You must not have known about You Tianni’s plan. If he did know all the details of this plan, he would never have agreed. After all, if word got out, he would probably find it difficult to retain his supreme commander status. The You Clan might even come under attack or be destroyed.
The Wintry Sovereign was about to rush into the Heaven Domain along with the rest of the Wintry Domain in order to fight the Netherworld Race. At a time like that, anyone who dared to touch Qi Qingchen would be stabbing the Earth Domain’s formidable martial artists in the back. Heavenly King You was very strong, but was he stronger than the Green Eagle King and Phantom King?
Jiang Yi did not expect that Heavenly King You would come down even though he did not know anything. There seemed to be a misunderstanding here that caused both Jiang Yi and Heavenly King You to become outraged. They both thought the other was being unreasonable and that the other was in the wrong!
No matter the reason, the situation had already developed to such a state. Jiang Yi had no other choice but to fight to his death!
Since he had to do that, he had to think of a way to make Heavenly King You retreat on his own. Otherwise, he had to at least seriously injure Heavenly King You. At crucial moments between life and death, Jiang Yi’s mind usually worked much better than it usually did. Thus, he set up a trap to send an outraged Heavenly King You on a wild goose chase for several hours while he gathered tens of millions of Sword Emanations Race beings.
There were already many Sword Emanations Race beings there—there were at least eight million of them.
Jiang Yi used the Sword Emanations King to gather all the Sword Emanations Race beings within billions of miles of him. He caused them to form a wall around both him and the Poison Spirit. If Heavenly King You wanted to kill him, he would have to break through the layers and layers of Sword Emanations Race beings!
Tens of millions of Sword Emanations Race was a lot!
If these Sword Emanations Race beings were let into a smaller domain, the domain would be destroyed at once. However, to King-Ranked martial artists, this number was not huge at all Heavenly King You did not need to kill all the Sword Emanations Race beings; neither did he need to cause all of them to retreat. All he had to do was charge through them before he could kill Jiang Yi easily.
The Poison Spirit knew this very well. At that moment, he was so nervous that his entire body was trembling uncontrollably.
Jiang Yi, on the other hand, was much calmer. He glanced at the Poison Spirit beside him and grinned, sending a voice transmission: “Poison Spirit, don’t be nervous. King-Ranked martial artists are humans after all. As long as they are human, they could be defeated. Whether we win or lose this battle, we can at least be happy that we have made the most of our lives. We are going head to head against a King-Ranked martial artist!”
“That’s right!”
Hearing these words from Jiang Yi, the Poison Spirit’s eyes lit up. To be able to battle with a King-Ranked martial artist was a privilege in itself!
He could not afford to care about much else. Instead, he sat down cross-legged and focused all his energy on recuperating. He had to give it all he had at the very last moment that he could protect Jiang Yi from any fatal blows. If he could seriously injure Heavenly King You, his name as the Poison Spirit would be known throughout the Earth Domain for sure.
Jiang Yi did not sit cross-legged and recuperate. Even if he recovered the full extent of his skills, it would still be of no use. His battle skills would mean nothing to a King-Ranked martial artist. He had to observe the situation and control the Sword Emanations Race beings in this battle!
He was not very confident that he would win this battle. Heavenly King You’s battle skills were too terrifying. Still, that did not mean that he was devoid of hope. He still had a trump card: the Sword Emanations King! The Sword Emanations Race and the Fire Dragon Sword had already merged together, but its powers remained. Otherwise, Jiang Yi would not have been able to control the Sword Emanations Race beings.
The Sword Emanations King was very terrifying indeed. His baneful aura alone could cause Yi Wu and company to be completely lost. Jiang Yi did not harbor any hope in his heart that the Sword Emanations King would be able to kill Heavenly King You. However, if it could scare Heavenly King You into retreating or injure him, that would be sufficient for Jiang Yi.
Swis.h.!.+
Like a Chaos Beast that was billions of years old, Heavenly King You charged towards Jiang Yi with crazed aura. Once he felt this terrifying aura, a fresh understanding of King-Ranked martial artists dawned on Jiang Yi. Facing a King-Ranked martial artist with skills like his made him feel like a mortal facing a Chaos Beast. He could hardly even lift his sword, much less attack Heavenly King You. It looked like the Green Eagle King had held back the last time. Otherwise, Jiang Yi would not have been able to even lift his Fire Dragon Sword for sure!
Clang, clang! Clang, clang!
Heavenly King You did not have any weapons on him. Instead, both of his hands—covered in long sleeves—danced around, shooting frightening streamers of light. All the Sword Emanations Race beings that were hit by the streamers flew out of the way at once. Heavenly King You advanced forward easily. Although he was not traveling fast, he looked exceptionally relaxed. It was almost as if he was taking a leisurely stroll in his own backyard.
“How troublesome…”
Jiang Yi had underestimated Heavenly King You. He had hoped that the baneful aura of the Sword Emanations Race beings would take effect, so that the Sword Emanations King could a.s.sa.s.sinate the Heavenly King You and catch him off-guard. After Heavenly King You had been attacked for some time and the baneful aura’s effects kicked in, Jiang Yi hoped to get the Poison Spirit to use his Divine Spirit Thrust to injure Heavenly King You.
From the looks of the situation now, it would be extremely difficult to affect Heavenly King You with the baneful aura. His expression was too relaxed. Jiang Yi guessed that he could easily fight the Sword Emanations Race beings for several hours without much harm. The Sword Emanations King’s attack would not affect Heavenly King You that much, so Jiang Yi did not dare to make it go all out. If Heavenly King You destroyed the Sword Emanations King or took over control of it, he would be royally screwed.
“Retreat!”
With a single hand, Jiang Yi led the Poison Spirit backward. Heavenly King You was traveling too quickly. Jiang Yi could not allow Heavenly King You to deal his best attack from such a close distance. Otherwise, both of them would be killed instantly. He was only using his ordinary attacks now and had not displayed any of his killer moves yet.
As Jiang Yi retreated, the Sword Emanations Race beings behind him naturally parted to allow him to pa.s.s through. Once the two of them pa.s.sed, the Sword Emanations Race beings closed up the gap again. At the same time, Jiang Yi steered the Sword Emanations Race beings to create more distance between them and Heavenly King You. At first, the Sword Emanations Race beings were in a circular formation. However, after this adjustment, their formation resembled more of an oval. This way, even if Heavenly King You wanted to get close to Jiang Yi and the Poison Spirit, he would have to get through more Sword Emanations Race beings!
This idea of Jiang Yi’s was not bad. However, at the next moment, he realized that he had been too naive!
Swis.h.!.+
After Jiang Yi made his move, a long spear appeared in Heavenly King You’s hand. This long spear was quite mystical. The stick looked very smooth, but a black scaled dragon was carved into it. There were also runic patterns glowing on the spear, which did not seem to have a head.
“Break!”
Heavenly King You focused his heavenly powers into his spear, causing it to light up with a blinding white light. An image of the head of a huge beast suddenly appeared in front of him. Heavenly King You thrust forward as hard as he could with his long spear, summoning an image of a black scaled dragon from the spear. The scaled dragon emanated an aggressive aura, threatening to destroy everything around it.
“This must be a Dao Heaven Spiritual Treasure!”
There were a total of three Primordial Spiritual Treasures in the Earth Domain. Heaven Spirit Treasure’s long spear’s aura seemed to be much stronger than Primitive Spiritual Treasures. Jiang Yi immediately guessed the type of treasure this was. What he saw in front of him was proof that the long spear was terrifying indeed.
Tsk! Tsk!
As the scaled dragon pa.s.sed through, the Sword Emanations Race beings in its path reduced to dust. How tough were these Sword Emanations Race beings? It dawned on Jiang Yi that the Sword Emanations Race beings were being reduced to paper by the black dragon; they seemed exceptionally vulnerable.
Swis.h.!.+
Heavenly King You continued to hold up his long spear, following closely behind the black, scaled dragon. A pathway was being created amongst the Sword Emanations Race beings. Now, Heavenly King You was traveling at top speed.
Jiang Y was initially more than five kilometers away from Heavenly King You. In a blink of an eye, Heavenly King You was two times closer. He could feel the destructive aura from the black dragon, which made him feel like the Grim Reaper was charging towards him as fast as he could.
“Sword Emanations King!”
He could not hold back his skills any longer. The Fire Dragon Sword in his hands lit up, and a stream of light flew out like a flash of lightning. The light shot into one of the Sword Emanations Race beings next to him. The Sword Emanations King immediately took control of that Sword Emanations Race being and—at once—flew towards Heavenly King You.
“You must defend us!”
The black dragon was going to reach Jiang Yi at any moment and threatened to reduce him to dust. Jiang Yi had no choice but to count on the Sword Emanations King to fend off Heavenly King You. If the Sword Emanations King failed to do so, the Poison Spirit would have to attack. If the Poison Spirit had to attack, he would die for sure!
