My Fury Will Burn The Heavens

Five pieces of celestial stone? And one ancient divine essence ring? Does the Azure Dragon Empire have no more room to keep their artifacts?

Jiang Yi was overwhelmed with emotions as he walked over and looked at the sword box which was seven feet long. The closer he got to the Fire Dragon Sword, the harder his heart throbbed—even the Fire Spirit Pearl lit up and was seemingly excited.

What? Are this Fire Dragon Sword and the Fire Spirit Pearl related?

Jiang Yi was bewildered in his heart. Despite how much he wished to open the box and take a look at the Fire Dragon Sword, he didn"t dare to do so recklessly with so many people around. He took out the Fire Spirit Pearl and kept everything inside; he would check everything after he went back.

“Young Master Jiang, Ling Xue will not hide the fact that this saint artifact is actually defective and doesn"t have the true power of a saint artifact. Of course, it is still much superior to a heaven artifact. This is why the Empire added on the ancient divine essence ring and the five pieces of celestial stone as compensation. As for the method of using the celestial stone, you will understand it once you do some casual information search.”

When Jiang Yi bowed with both his hands to the front, Princess Ling Xue actually took two steps forward and used her jade hands to help Jiang Yi to rise, revealing a charming smile at the same time and whispered as she explained: “Once these five celestial stones has been refined, I estimate Young Master Jiang"s strength to quickly achieve Soul Travel Realm.

“This is an expression of sincerity from the Empire, and I hope Young Master Jiang can seriously consider the matter that Ling Xue mentioned this afternoon. As long as you serve the Empire, there are still a few more true saint artifacts in the Empire that we will bestow and also an endless supply of celestial stone. And… Ling Xue would also like you to seriously consider—because Young Master Jiang is a pretty good lifetime partner.”

Princess Ling Xue"s jade hands slid across Jiang Yi"s palm. That jade-like satin skin, that alluring smile, that delicate figure with a subtle fragrance, and that tender voice that echoed in Jiang Yi"s ears were like an attractive kitten, causing Jiang Yi"s eyes to be intoxicated for a moment.

This woman was truly an incredible individual who knew how to seduce a man, especially with her ambiguous manner of speech from a person of her status, enough to entice any man"s heart.

“I will consider it prudently.”

Jiang Yi nodded and dismissed himself, only regaining his composure after he returned to his seat while his heart was still admiring the Empire"s strategy.

A defective saint artifact? Wasn"t it to let him have a taste of the saint artifact"s prowess so that he would be tempted by a flawless saint artifact?

This celestial stone was actually a mystical stone for cultivation? He had never heard of such an item, and it looked like only the Empire had such things. The Azure Dragon Empire wanted to give Jiang Yi a taste of the benefits; once he was addicted for more, he would have no choice but to rely on the Azure Dragon Empire.

The highlight show had ended, and the banquet was at the final call!

Princess Ling Xue took her leave first, leaving behind an enchanting back view while Jiang Yi and the others took their leave afterward. If these people wanted to stay the night here, the imperial clan would definitely make the arrangements. Since everyone obtained the treasures, they naturally wanted to go back and share this great news with their clansmen. Hence, they boarded their respective carriages and were escorted out of the imperial palace.

Princ.i.p.al Qi, Qian w.a.n.guan, and the others were staying in the Crouching Immortal Meadow, south of Stellarsky City. Once Jiang Yi"s carriage arrived at the Crouching Immortal Meadow, it was already midnight. It was forbidden for anyone to fight in the Stellarsky City, and with the imperial guards as his escorts, it was rather safe along the way.

The Crouching Immortal Meadow was still brightly lit up, and everyone was waiting for Jiang Yi"s return. Qian w.a.n.guan had been pacing around on the outside; when he saw the approaching carriage, he quickly went to welcome with delight.

“Let"s go in first!”

Jiang Yi didn"t say much to Qian w.a.n.guan and headed inside. Once he entered the inner courtyard, he saw a group of people from the Mt. Spirit Beast City waiting for him. He knew what everyone wanted to know and spoke bluntly, “I was bestowed with a saint artifact, one ancient divine essence ring, and… five celestial stones.”

“What?”

Zhan Wushuang, Yun Fei, and Qian w.a.n.guan were amazed; even Princ.i.p.al Qi and the others were stunned. Princ.i.p.al Qi"s eyes flickered for a few times before she murmured, “The Empire actually bestowed celestial stones? What are they trying to do? It seems like there is going to be a gathering storm on the continent soon.”

When Jiang Yi saw Zhan Wushuang and the others had complex emotions like envy, concern, and dignity, he asked curiously, “What is a celestial stone? I only know that it is used for cultivation.”

“Boss! Didn"t I tell you about the top ten cultivation treasures of the continent? The Fire Lingzhi is ranked six, but this celestial stone you have is ranked no.1. This treasure is rumored to be divine stones that have fallen from the heavens. It contains the quintessence of heaven and earth; once absorbed, the cultivation speed would increase drastically. This is a priceless item that apart from the Azure Dragon Empire, it is miserably scarce in all the other six royal clans. As for clans like our Qian and the Zhan Clans, we do not even have one! The continent understood that the Azure Dragon Empire has many of these celestial stone, but they have never been used as a reward in this Kingdom War. To suddenly offer so many of them this time, you should know what it means, right…?”

Qian w.a.n.guan explained in a soft voice which appalled Jiang Yi—he quickly understood what Princ.i.p.al Qi and the others were concerned about.

For the Azure Dragon Empire to bestow the celestial stones to Jiang Yi and the others, it was a prolific declaration to the world that the Empire was recruiting talents. As long as they joined the Azure Dragon Empire, they would receive large quant.i.ties of celestial stones to aid their cultivation.

Who wouldn"t want to be a martial expert? Who wouldn"t want their strength to rapidly surge?

With so many celestial stones in the Azure Dragon Empire, it would definitely cause an influx of prodigies. As such, the Empire would be able to quickly produce a group of martial experts, causing the Azure Dragon Empire"s overall strength to grow stronger.

The Azure Dragon Empire was definitely recruiting martial experts constantly, but they didn"t do it so openly. After all, it was an obvious declaration of war to the six va.s.sal states; now that they were flaunting the celestial stones, what could it mean?

It meant that the Azure Dragon Empire had gathered a substantial amount of strength. They weren"t afraid of the a.s.saults from the six va.s.sal states and were going to rise up rapidly. Would the six va.s.sal states, which had been maintaining their rule for so many years, allow the Empire to rise while they watched helplessly? Were they going to stare blankly as the Empire eradicate them and rule the world?”

Obviously not!

This was why Princ.i.p.al Qi, Zhan Wushuang, Qian w.a.n.guan, and the others were so concerned. Once the war began, the entire continent"s influential forces would have another shift, and the Mt. Spirit Beast College would inevitably be involved. Perhaps, the Mt. Spirit Beast College, the Zhan Clan, the Qian Clan, and the other great clans might even perish in their long-running history.

“Everyone, have an early rest. We will set off early tomorrow and teleport back to the Divine Martial Kingdom before returning to the college.”

After Princ.i.p.al Qi gave her instructions, she left with a few vice princ.i.p.als and mentors. The rest of the cadets quickly took their leave and pa.s.sed on this shocking news to their various clans.

When Yun Fei was preparing to leave, Jiang Yi suddenly gestured for her to stop. “Yun Fei, wait a moment!”

The Fire Spirit Pearl flashed; an ancient ring and two jade boxes appeared in Jiang Yi"s palm. He looked at Zhan Wushuang and Yun Fei before speaking, “I said I will distribute the spoils once I obtain the no.1 rank of the Kingdom War. This ancient divine essence ring and two pieces of celestial stones are for you. Without your help, I would have not been able to kill Yun He and the others. As for how are you going to split among the two of you, I will leave it to the husband and wife.”

“Eh…”

Yun Fei and Zhan Wushuang were startled; even Qian w.a.n.guan was shocked. Zhan Wushuang"s face quickly turned grave as he spoke coldly, “Jiang Yi, what are you doing? Take it back!”

Yun Fei nodded, too. “We didn"t do much. Furthermore… you helped me killed Yun He and take revenge for my elder brother. I am already extremely grateful. I cannot accept these things.”

“Please don"t say it like that…”

Just as Jiang Yi wanted to say something, Zhan Wushuang looked at him before picking up the ancient divine essence ring and handing it over to Yun Fei. “Jiang Yi, you already have a spatial divine artifact so let Yun Fei take this ancient divine essence ring. As for the celestial stone, you are the one who needs to quickly raise your cultivation level. Keep them all. Any more nonsense, and I will not recognize you as a brother.”
