Chapter 1574: Finding Something by Chance After Searching High and Low for It
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Eh? What is that there? Why is it so bright?”
In the spatial zone, Jiang Yi looked at a patch of red light as he asked curiously.
They had left the Divine Yang Mystic Realm four hours ago. Jiang Yi did not know that Heavenly King You and Heavenly King Wu were searching for him high and low and that five King-Ranked Sovereigns had led ten thousand formidable martial artists together with the men from the big domains nearby to all locate his whereabouts.
Their Chaos Divine Boat tracked for more than four hours; they still had not caught up with You Tianni and Ren Tianfan. Now, seeing that red light, Jiang Yi naturally grew energized as he asked, “That seems to be a mystic realm? Could the two of them be hiding there?”
“That is not a mystic realm…”
Little Eagle King glanced over and replied firmly, “That should be a lava wasteland. I remember seeing a map of this area before, and that there was a lava wasteland here. Many such wastelands populate the Earth Domain. No living things inhabit these places, and even King-Ranked formidable martial artists do not dare to enter. This lava wasteland definitely is filled with terrifying heaven-and-earth special flames! You Tianni and Ren Tianfan could not have hidden inside this place.”
“That’s right!”
One of the Ink Feather Race formidable martial artists nodded and said, “The temperature outside must be very high as the Divine Boat is consuming more fuel than normal. This should be a lava wasteland.”
“Heaven-and-earth special flames?”
Jiang Yi’s eyes lit up. He loved heaven-and-earth special flames very much; so did his Heaven-Swallowing Beast who loved to swallow them. Unfortunately, he didn’t have time now and also didn’t dare to go near that place. Little Eagle King had said that even King-Ranked martial artists didn’t dare to enter. If his Fire Spirit Pearl could not withstand the heat, Jiang Yi would be instantly immolated and burned into ash.
The Chaos Divine Boat made an arc to avoid the wasteland as it continued flying forward. Jiang Yi looked at the pitch-black surroundings as he was a little helpless. He looked at Little Eagle King and asked, “Little Eagle King, the spatial zone is so vast; it seems to be without end. What if You Tianni and Ren Tianfan had changed direction? Could we still locate them?”
“We don’t have a choice!”
Little Eagle King shrugged his shoulders as he said, “We can only depend on our luck. If they had changed direction, we can only blame our dumb luck. Furthermore, we don’t have much time. Heavenly King You and the others have probably started their search operation for you. Hence, if we keep on this course for an hour and still cannot find them, we can only head to the Green Soul Mystic Realm nearby. Our race had a.n.a.lyzed that mystic realm before; there is a natural, powerful illusion array inside. Even if King-Ranked formidable martial artists entered that mystic realm—if they didn’t search in detail, they wouldn’t be able to locate you. If it wasn’t for the fact that this mystic realm did not have spirit energy, we would have long occupied it.”
“Very well then.”
Jiang Yi sighed softly as his gaze looked ahead; everything was up to G.o.d now.
The Divine Boat’s speed was already at its maximum while it was exhausting a lot of energy. This speed was definitely slightly faster than ordinary King-Ranked martial artists; it was a few times faster than Qi Qingchen. Jiang Yi could only widen his eyes and look about intently for signs of the duo.
An hour pa.s.sed by very soon; it was still pitch-black ahead of them. Jiang Yi looked at Little Eagle King helplessly as the latter gave the order firmly, “Fly to the south to the Green Soul Mystic Realm; we cannot delay any longer.”
Swis.h.!.+
As the Divine Boat changed course, Jiang Yi’s attention was no longer on their path. Instead, he used his divine senses and scanned the Chaos Essence Pearl. Yi Chan and company had not woken up; could their soul spirits have been injured? Mo Huaisang, however, had already woken up. Poison Spirit was similarly unconscious though his injuries were now under control while his powerful physical body could recuperate on its own.
Buzz!
Jiang Yi thought for a moment as he teleported Mo Huaisang, Di Ling’er, Yi Chan, Poison Spirit, and company out. He looked at Little Eagle King and said, “Little Eagle King, I would like to ask for a favor. Could you bring these people back with you? If something were to happen to me, please help me to take care of them.”
“En? Commander Mu? Jiang Yi?”
Mo Huaisang was teleported out and was elated when she saw Little Eagle King. Seeing Jiang Yi, her face grew bewildered and confused. She still could not believe that Jiang Yi had survived in the Purgatory Mystic Realm for so long.
“Alright!”
Little Eagle King did not say any further as he took out his spatial divine item and kept everyone inside. He knew that Jiang Yi’s predicament this time was rather serious; Jiang Yi probably might die; and if Yi Chan, Mo Huaisang, Di Ling’er, and company remained with him, they would easily perish as well.
“Commander Mu, I, I…”
Mo Huaisang saw that Little Eagle King ignored her as she guiltily tried to explain what had happened with Poison Spirit, Yi Chan, and company. However, Little Eagle King didn’t want to listen at all as he forcibly sent her into his spatial divine item.
Jiang Yi did not say anything else as he quieted down. Little Eagle King seemed as if he wanted to say something but ultimately still kept mum. The Divine Boat continued flying for almost an hour as a black, huge shadow appeared.
“Eh?”
Jiang Yi looked a couple of times as he asked curiously, “Is this a wasteland as well? Why doesn’t it have Primordial Astral Gas?”
“No, this is the Green Soul Mystic Realm!”
Little Eagle King explained. “Precisely because this mystic realm does not have Primordial Astral Gas, it does not have a sliver of heaven-and-earth spirit energy; and no human being can live inside it. Jiang Yi, I have some energy elixirs with me that could sustain you for a month. In one month, you must leave this mystic realm. As to where you should go? I do not know as well.”
“Uh?”
Jiang Yi was a little stunned. He understood Little Eagle King’s meaning. While Little Eagle King earnestly wanted to help him, this matter had been blown out of proportion. If Little Eagle King got caught up in this, it would not be beneficial to the Ink Feather Race. Unless the Green Eagle King himself gave an order, the Little Eagle King would not have any right to help Jiang Yi anymore.
“Sure! I understand!”
Jiang Yi’s mouth twitched as a sliver of a bitter smile appeared. Once the Little Eagle King left, Jiang Yi could only drift in the spatial zone. Even if no one was still hunting him—based on his current strength, he wouldn’t be able to enter any mystic realm or domain by himself. If no formidable martial artists saved him, he would die in this spatial zone.
“I will bring you in.”
Little Eagle King did not say anything else as he gave Jiang Yi a ring and brought him out of the Divine Boat, flying towards the Green Soul Mystic Realm. This mystic realm did not have Primordial Astral Gas outside it though it had some green substance enveloping it. Its name ‘Green Soul Mystic Realm’ had probably come from this green substance.
Swis.h.!.+
This green substance was not harmful at all as the duo easily pierced through it and entered the pitch-black mystic realm. Not a sliver of light was inside it, and cold, icy stones were all around. Jiang Yi’s divine senses scanned a couple of times and nodded; this was not a place for humans to inhabit.
“The illusion array is in that direction.”
The mystic realm wasn’t that big as Little Eagle King brought Jiang Yi and flew ahead. Little Eagle King locked onto a huge mountain as he said, “Do you see that mountain? The illusion array is in the cave at the foot of that mountain. Use your divine senses; can you find that cave?”
As expected!
Jiang Yi scanned for a moment and couldn’t find anything at the foot of the mountain. He didn’t find any cave or any restrictions at all.
Swis.h.!.+
Little Eagle King brought Jiang Yi and flew straight to the lower parts of that huge mountain. After they flew downwards, Jiang Yi’s eyes looked around again and realized that the scenery was completely different. There indeed was a small cave at the foot of the mountain that stretched deep.
“Something isn’t right…”
Little Eagle King’s cold eyes swept over as he shouted, “There are people inside the cave!”
“Uh?”
Jiang Yi’s divine senses were much weaker than Little Eagle King’s and could not detect the interior of the cave. However, Little Eagle King’s killing aura suddenly surged as he soared forward and shouted “It is indeed like finding something by chance after searching high and low for it! Jiang Yi, You Tianni is hiding inside there!”
“Kill!”
Jiang Yi’s eyes grew red instantly. Without any hesitation, he released the Sword Emanations King as his old guqin appeared in his hand; and he rushed forward, following behind Little Eagle King.
