Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 1442: Ten Thousand Domain Tournament

The guardian’s voice transmission caused a chill to run down Jiang Yi’s spine. He never thought that while sleeping, he would be like a blind cat running into a dead mouse. He’d obtained this huge opportunity. The guardian would not lie to him. That meant he must have really grabbed hold of whatever this Heavenly Spring Rhythm was; it was just that he had not realized it yet.

He quickly turned to the guardian and bowed deeply and then sat down on the ground cross-legged to cultivate his heavenly powers. He focused first on finding that Heavenly Spring Rhythm. However, after searching for hours and hours, he still did not manage to find anything. It was almost as if everything had just been a dream, and the guardian was lying to him. Perhaps he did not realize anything.

Strange!

He opened his eyes, confused and doubtful. If the thing was already in his soul spirit, why couldn’t he find it? Could it be that the thing was hidden in the deepest recesses of his soul, just like the Xiaozhuan characters?

“What is your name?”

A voice suddenly sounded in Jiang Yi’s mind, causing him to look up in astonishment. He saw the Qingchen Battle Goddess, looking light as a fairy on the tree and looking back at him. He stared blankly at her for a moment and then sent a voice transmission in reply: “My name is Jiang Yi!”

“Jiang Yi!”

Qingchen Battle Goddess seemed to ponder it for a moment before sending another voice transmission: “My time is up. My name is Qi Qingchen. I owe you a favor. If you have an opportunity in the future, come to the Wintry Domain. I’ll let you become a Prefecture Lord.”

The moment she finished speaking, the Qingchen Battle Goddess got up and disappeared in a burst of light. Jiang Yi was even more shocked now. What had gotten into this beauty? Why did she say that to him? Why did she owe him a favor? Where was Wintry Domain?

Jiang Yi did not really care for the title of Prefecture Lord. All the Prefecture Lords in Earth Emanations Domain all treated him respectfully. However, from the tone of the Qingchen Battle Goddess’ voice, he could tell that this beauty was really somebody significant. The fact that she could easily make him a Prefecture Lord showed that she probably belonged to the household of the sovereign.

Forget it, I can’t be bothered!

Jiang Yi shook his head, pushing all of these thoughts aside. He did not have much time left. He had to cherish whatever time he had left to realize what he had to. He tried to quiet his heart and organized all the different messages in his head. He had to look for that Heavenly Springs Rhythm.

He could not find the Heavenly Springs Rhythm, but he recalled something else. Back then, he learned a lot about the true Art of Concealment from Poison Spirit. However, at the time, he was stuck at a bottleneck. Too many things happened after that so that he could not think about it again. Now, it was a good time to try and realize what he had learned.

He cast the matters regarding the Heavenly Springs Rhythm aside and focused entirely on realizing the true Art of Concealment.

Two hours later, his heart felt moved. He rejoiced wholeheartedly. The speed that his mind worked here was too fast. The bottleneck wherein he found himself in the past had been undone. The progress he was making here was akin to traveling five-hundred-kilometers in a day. He was absolutely certain that he would be able to cultivate the Art of Concealment.

A pity!

He did not have much time left. He had not made any significant progress on the Art of Concealment before he was teleported out. In a dizzy state, he opened his eyes. The first person he saw was Lu Hong who was seated beside him, patiently waiting. He sighed softly in pity. If he had another half a day inside there, the Art of Concealment would have been completed.

“Great Minister of Public Works!”

Lu Hong was shocked awake. He quickly stood up and helped Jiang Yi up as well. Jiang Yi stood there for a couple of seconds before asking, “Nothing big has happened in the city, right?”

“En, Great Minister of Public Works’ great name is known through Earth Emanations Domain. Who would dare to cause trouble for you?” Lu Hong took the chance to suck up to Jiang Yi. Then, he asked curiously, “Great Minister of Public Works, did you manage to realize anything inside this time?”

“Not sure!”

Jiang Yi left this curious answer that perplexed Lu Hong before walking out by himself. Lu Hong blinked, confused. If he did, he did; if he didn’t, he didn’t. What did he mean by ‘not sure’?

Lu Hong quickly chased after Jiang Yi and reported respectfully, “That’s right, Great Minister of Public Works. The Cold Autumn Heaven Emanations is here. He has waited in the Jiang Manor for a long time.

“Mo Lingqiu?”

Jiang Yi’s eyebrow twitched. What was Mo Lingqiu here for? He had even waited all this time for Jiang Yi? Jiang Yi walked briskly up to the Divine Eagle City. When the Earth Emanations Army soldiers guarding the gate saw Jiang Yi, they immediately opened the city gates and bowed respectfully.

At top speed, Jiang Yi entered the city. The people who caught sight of him along the way all bowed down to him, but Jiang Yi did not have any time to respond to them. Instead, he focused on getting to the Jiang Manor as quickly as he could. He Wei happened to be at the door. When he saw Jiang Yi, he quickly reported, “Jiang Yi, you’re finally out of seclusion. Lord Mo has been waiting for you for a long time.”

Jiang Yi nodded. He Wei led him to the yard which was Mo Shangxing’s yard. Mo Shangxing and Mo Lingqiu were seated there, sipping tea. When they caught sight of Jiang Yi, Mo Lingqiu smiled gently and said, “Jiang Yi, you’ve wasted such a good opportunity. You entered the Dao Heaven Mystic Realm with skills like yours? Did you even realize anything?”

Jiang Yi waved his hand, gesturing for He Wei to be dismissed. Then, he walked forward and poured himself a cup of tea. Smiling bitterly, he said, “I am anxious to improve my own skills.”

He did not speak about his realization of the Heavenly Springs Rhythm in the Dao Heaven Mystic Realm because he still felt too weird about it. He was even beginning to suspect whether he really did realize it or not. Otherwise, why was there no sign or indication in his soul spirit that he did?

“You cannot become fat just by having one mouth of food!”

Mo Lingqiu and Mo Shangxing exchanged a knowing look and then began to teach him. “Jiang Yi, you are still young. In Higher-Domain terms, you are still a child. There is still a long way in front of you. You cannot rush something like cultivation. Your cultivation level is low for now. When you become a Demon-Killing Battle God, you will find that improving by a bit will take you ten or even a hundred years! Some people spend thousands of years without seeing any improvement in their skills.”

“En!”

Jiang Yi nodded and did not bother to argue with Mo Lingqiu. He decided to talk business instead. “Lord, what brings you here anyway?”

Mo Lingqiu was a supremely highly-ranked character. If nothing big had happened, he would not come down personally. Jiang Yi guessed that something huge must have happened.

Mo Lingqiu fell silent for a few seconds and then said, “Two things!

“The first!”

Mo Lingqiu continued, “Some time ago, I sent someone to the Stellarsky Domain. Everything there has been going on as per normal so you can relax. In fact, the Netherworld Realm’s remaining powers have all been cleaned out. My men have left behind ten heavenly monuments, each of them containing a law. They’ve also built a huge and powerful spirit-concentration array. If nothing goes wrong, more and more people will ascend here from the Stellarsky Domain.

“Your few wives are quite talented, and I am quite hopeful that they will ascend. What’s more, when the time comes, they will ascend to... the Earth Emanations Domain. My men will immediately fetch them over once they do.”

“Huh? Thank you, Lord!”

Jiang Yi was over the moon. It took all his willpower to stop himself from running forward, hugging Mo Lingqiu, and kissing him on the lips. Although he knew that Mo Lingqiu was trying to suck up to him, this favor was way too huge. To Jiang Yi, this meant the world.

“That’s right...”

Jiang Yi thought of something and turned to Mo Lingqiu, asking, “Lord, since you could send men to the Lower Domain, then... can I make a trip down there as well?”

“No way!”

Mo Lingqiu shook his head and answered, “You are not from the Earth Emanations Army. According to the Earth Emanations’ strict rules, I don’t have such powers. However, if you ask the Earth Emanations Sovereign himself and he gives you the nod of approval, there will be no issue.”

“Ask the Sovereign?”

Jiang Yi paused and scratched his head in embarrassment. He did not like to owe people too much, and he hated to ask others for things. After pondering for a while, he asked, “If I count on myself, will I be able to go to the Lower Domain?”

“Yes!”

Mo Lingqiu answered confidently. “You would need thirty million divine roots!”

“Oh, oh!”

Jiang Yi’s heart thudded. In the past, getting tens of millions of divine roots would be an almost impossible task. However, given his status now, earning divine roots was an easy task. He silently calculated in his head. Once he got stronger and accepted more missions, he would be able to accumulate more divine roots. Then, he could think about going down to the Lower Domain.

He stabilized his emotions and asked, “What was the second thing?”

Mo Lingqiu smiled gently once again. “Ten days later, there will be a Ten Thousand Domain Tournament held in the Earth Domain. When that time comes, all the domains in the Earth Domain would send their talented youths to battle with one another. I am prepared to bring you there to experience it.”

“Me?”

Jiang Yi’s face was a mask of astonishment. He quickly shook his head and said, “The talented youths of the Earth Domain are going to fight it out. Given my bit of skills, I can forget about winning. I’ll only embarrass you.”

Anyone below the age of twenty in the Earth Domain could be considered a youth. Twenty years in the Higher Domain was equivalent to two thousand years in the Lower Domain. The people who could be considered talented youths in the Earth Domain were likely geniuses or demons. Whether there were Titled Battle Gods aside, Jiang Yi guessed that they were at least Battle-God ranked. If he went to fight them, wouldn’t he be making a fool of himself? What’s more, he did not like to battle for fun.

“Keke!”

Mo Shangxing and Mo Lingqiu exchanged another look and smiled subtly. Mo Lingqiu mocked, “You can come this time, but I don’t need you to fight. I’m just asking you to watch and learn so that you can gain more exposure. Since you don’t want to come... then forget it. I wanted to bring you to see the most amazing mountain in Earth Domain, Saint Spirit Mountain!”

“En—En!”

Jiang Yi nodded, but on hearing the last three words, his eyes widened in shock. His lips trembled slightly. His voice shaking, he asked, “What did you say? Saint Spirit Mountain? The tournament is going to take place on Saint Spirit Mountain?”
