Chapter 902: Big Trouble!
Jiang Yi was not gay and wasn’t pretending to be different. It was because he didn’t want to expose himself or attract Yi Chan’s special attention.
Yi Chan probably didn’t recognize him; otherwise, she wouldn’t ask him such a question. Jiang Yi looked at her and didn’t detect any special look in her eyes.
She should possess special abilities or divine skills, which was why she found Jiang Yi familiar. However, Jiang Yi’s appearance and soul spirit aura completely changed because of Mirage Divine Ability. Thus, Yi Chan was just suspicious, but she didn’t recognize him and wasn’t certain.
Nevertheless, Jiang Yi didn’t want to have anything to do with Yi Chan. Even though she helped him before, they were not the same kind of people. Jiang Yi went to the Sin Island, was very friendly with Ao Lu, and was destined to be the mortal enemy of the Nine Thearch Clans. Therefore, Jiang Yi didn’t want to be a.s.sociated with this G.o.ddess from the Nine Heavens. He ended her suspicion straight away so that she wouldn’t pay attention to him anymore.
Buzz!
A white light glowed, and Jiang Yi felt that he had come to another world. He saw a barren field, it was foggy, and the visibility was below 900 meters. The sky was grey—there was no way to see clearly what was up there. Jiang Yi took a deep breath; he smelt rotten desolation.
“This isn’t right!”
Jiang Yi realized what happened instantly. He let out his divine senses right away and found that he was only able to explore places 1.5 kilometers away. This s.p.a.ce restricted his divine senses for an unknown reason. He took a few steps forward. To his surprise, his legs felt abnormally heavy. There should be a 10,000-time gravity restriction in this place.
“The region of divine senses is limited? Poor visibility? Ten-thousandfold gravity lowers everyone’s speed. This place is amazing!”
Jiang Yi glanced around and found that there was nothing around him apart from the desolate ground. So many people had come inside, but he saw none of them?!
“Are we teleported spontaneously?”
Jiang Yi was secretly surprised. He contemplated for a while and tried to instant-s.h.i.+ft. As a result, a shocking thing happened again. White light flashed on his body before s.p.a.ce trembled slightly, and he appeared in the same place. The s.p.a.ce in this place was extremely stable; he couldn’t instantly-s.h.i.+ft.
“How about the Heaven Evasion?”
His mouth twitched. White light glistened on his hands, he was about to tear apart the spatial zone. The result made him completely speechless. s.p.a.ce was absurdly steady; there was no way to perform Heaven Evasion. He couldn’t even tear the s.p.a.ce.
“How about the Fury of Thunder?”
Jiang Yi was slightly uneasy. Without Heaven Evasion, he lost a mighty ability to escape. If he was chased after, he might die at any time!
A black sword appeared in his hands, he began to wield the sword in the sky. What made him utterly panicky followed—he was unable to release the Fury of Thunder here! It should be a completely enclosed s.p.a.ce; there was no way to trigger the thunder in the Nine Heavens.
“I have big trouble…”
His mouth twitched again. Fury of Thunder was his most powerful attack. It was a mighty dao pattern that he comprehended in the Thunder Mountains on the Sky Thunder Island. There was a Thunder Gathering Array on the Sky Thunder Island. Lightning struck on the Thunder Mountains for years and left a dao pattern presence of the origin of the thunderbolts. He comprehended it by chance.
Without the Fury of Thunder, his strongest attack would be the Thunder Fire. The problem was that the Thunder Fire couldn’t kill mighty martial artists. Faster ones could easily dodge the fire and run away. Besides that, he had a Spiritual Connecting cardinal treasure, Sky-Turning Cauldron, with him. However, it was damaged. Perhaps, he couldn’t crush the powerful peak-stage Heaven Monarchs to death even if they did nothing and just let him attack them.
He was ecstatic that Wu Ni and Ji Tingyu were here. He thought he was able to take them down with ease. Right now, if he dared to mess around or reveal his ident.i.ty, Wu Ni might slaughter him with ease.
“Divine Voice Heaven Skill!”
A soft sword appeared on his left hand, he put all his hope on the Divine Sound Heaven Skill. He wielded the soft sword, a shrill sound came off. Instantly, he heard a painful scream from a distance, “Ah, what’s this sound? It’s so horrible, everyone, fall back!”
“Let’s go!”
Jiang Yi was slightly relieved that he still had a powerful divine skill working. He didn’t risk staying in the same place. He turned on the divine s.h.i.+eld and quickly ran toward the other side. He didn’t dare to fly. Under the 10,000-fold gravity, the flight speed would be much slower and would consume too many essence forces and strength.
“I am so slow, probably as fast a Soul Travel Realm martial expert.”
After traveling for a few kilometers, Jiang Yi was still not used to the speed. He was too slow. It was said that the Purgatory Ruin was one million kilometers in diameter. Would he be able to travel across one-tenth of the ruin in one month?
Buzz!
On his way, Jiang Yi’s divine s.h.i.+eld suddenly glowed with brilliant light before the s.h.i.+eld burst. Jiang Yi’s soul spirit almost shattered.
He stayed in the same place and did not dare to move. He turned on his divine s.h.i.+eld immediately and looked around with his divine senses. All his muscles were tightened to the extreme.
“Nothing? Then, what attacked me just now?” After searching for a while, he found nothing, which gave him gooseb.u.mps. Was there a ghost in this place?
“This isn’t right! Union of Heaven and Man!”
Jiang Yi closed his eyes, entered the Union of Heaven and man, and looked around. Soon, he found the reason and finally knew why the Purgatory Ruin was so dangerous, where eight out of ten who went in lost their lives. As… there were astral winds in this place, the astral winds killed people unknowingly!
“Among the 200,000 over people who came in, at most several thousand can leave alive.”
Jiang Yi scratched his nose, and his mind was full of doubts. Why did this place have astral winds? In addition, there were astral winds in the mountains above the ruin in the daytime. Did it have something to do with the astral winds here?
“Can I travel via the underground route?”
If he could take the underground route, then he had no reason to fear the astral winds. Therefore, Jiang Yi took out the iron sword and slammed at the ground. However, it was as though the sword hit onto the cold iron. Even though a small pit was created, he could probably travel for only five kilometers underground in one month.
“What is this soil made of?”
Jiang Yi couldn’t and didn’t have the time to figure it out. One month was too short. At such a low speed, he could hardly meet Wu Ni and his group, let alone finding the Fire-Snake Orchid.
“Let’s go!”
He quickly rushed forward. In the state of the union of heaven and man, he could detect the astral winds in advance and avoid them early. The astral winds drifted away with the normal wind. As long as he wasn’t close, there was no danger.
“Third Brother!”
“Ah, Ah—!”
After going forward for 30 kilometers, Jiang Yi suddenly heard a sorrowful bellow, followed by more distressing screams. He swept over his divine senses and found a dozen people over there. Among them, five were lying in a pool of blood. Their bodies were cut into pieces. Clearly, they were killed by the astral winds.
“It deserves its reputation as one of the ten most dangerous places!”
Jiang Yi bypa.s.sed the crowd and resumed his journey. On his way, he kept seeing blood on the ground, but the bodies were gone. They should be put away. Obviously, a lot of people were killed by the astral winds.
“The astral winds in this side seem to be stronger.”
After traveling for two hours, Jiang Yi stopped his footsteps. He saw dozens of bodies in front of him, which were left uncollected. This whole team should be wiped out. The astral winds in front were much stronger than those behind him. Even though he could dodge them by the Union of Heaven and Man, it was still very dangerous.
He hid in a small col and couldn’t decide what to do. After a while, he heard a series of footsteps. He quickly held his breath, reined his aura in, and carefully detected the surroundings in the state of the Union of Heaven and Man.
“Ye Ying?”
It was a descendant of the Nine Thearch Clans, with over twenty people, who were all upper-tier Heaven Monarchs. There were five peak-stage Heaven Monarchs, too, whose divine senses swept across Jiang Yi. However, they paid no attention to him. Instead, two men suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice, “Young Master, the astral winds in front are much stronger; shall we go around the wind?”
“Go around? You don’t understand the rule!”
Ye Clan’s Young Master, Ye Ying, snorted and said, “The Purgatory Ruin has been here for so many years, will there still be any treasures left in the not-so-dangerous place? Even if there are, people should have taken them a long time ago. Let’s go, there will be more treasures in places with stronger astral winds. Set up the formation! Let’s go in by force!”
“En?”
Jiang Yi was tempted. Ye Ying’s words made sense. It seemed like to find the Fire-Snake Orchid, he had to go to the dangerous places.
