Chapter 1634: A Way Out

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“I’m in big trouble!

This time, it was Jiang Yi’s turn to have a headache. He indeed did not have many Sword Emanations Race beings left; he had less than a million remaining.

From the looks of it, the enemy wanted to torture him to death. Once the eleven spatial divine items grew close, more than ten King-Ranked formidable martial artists’ attacks would come raining on him.

The gravity here was horrific. Any attacks from below would be weakened. However, if the attacks came horizontally, they would not be weakened by much. Furthermore, two of these spatial divine item pagodas were even a little higher than the stone dais. The combined strength of these attacks would not be weakened by that much in the end.

The Sword Emanations Race beings that Jiang Yi had could be said to be many and could be said to be few. If attacks came incessantly from all directions, they could actually be wiped out in at most an hour. Once the Sword Emanations Race beings were wiped out, what was Jiang Yi going to use to block the King-Ranked formidable martial artists’ attacks?

Even if he refined supreme-grade divine artifact battle armor now, it wouldn’t be much use. The enemy could easily still kill him. Once he died, Qi Qingchen would perish as well. Poison Spirit—who was hiding in the central hall now—would also do something foolish and be slaughtered.

In reality...!

Poison Spirit had wanted to rush forward to hold Dao Feng hostage just now but had been found out by Jiang Yi who immediately quietly gave him a sign not to act. Although Poison Spirit’s assassination arts were formidable, the problem was that Dao Feng wore Dao Heaven Spiritual Treasure battle armor; Poison Spirit would not be able to kill him.

“Calm down and think of a way.”

Jiang Yi ignored the slowly nearing structures as he entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man, and his mind worked furiously. He ran through all the techniques and methods at his disposal and analyzed all the advantages he could make use of in the vicinity, including Qi Qingchen and Poison Spirit, to think of a way out.

Bang, bang, bang!

Those structures were being struck to move them closer to Jiang Yi; they were already ten thousand feet away from the high stages. As the spatial divine items all had powerful restrictions, they wouldn’t be destroyed by such attacks. Every pagoda and palace had a couple of people attacking them as the young masters and young mistresses gleefully unleashed all sorts of mystical abilities. To them, it seemed as if they were playing a game.

Swish!

Young Mistress Gongyang and He Nongying had started to fly towards the other stone dais. Both were King-Ranked and were unlike Qi Qingchen; they were seasoned and had broken through a long time ago. The two easily reached the bottom of that stone dais. However, they didn’t rush up recklessly and, of course, didn’t use their hands and legs to crawl. All great family clans’ young masters cared about their appearance and mannerisms; young mistresses were even more particular about this. They would rather give up the treasures than crawl and climb upward.

“Ha!”

After resting for a while, He Nongying pushed upward as she flew up. Young Mistress Gongyang also started to fly up from another side. The two easily reached the twenty-something step in a matter of seconds.

Hoo-Hoo!

The two chose to stop at this moment, huffing and puffing as sweat fell. As they were breathing out heavily, their chests also started to rise and fall, attracting many young masters’ attention.

On the other side, the pagodas and small palace had already reached within four thousand feet of the stone dais. Although they were being moved at a snail’s pace—as the attacks on them were continuous, they still continued to inch forward. The King-Ranked formidable martial artists on the structures’ eyes all became icy-cold as their killing intent surged.

Jiang Yi finally acted!

If he didn’t, attacks from all around would soon rain on him. His Wintry Pearl lit up as he released Sword Emanations Race beings to fill up the space around him. He continued to release them until he was buried among them, forming a small mountain around him.

After making this mountain, Jiang Yi still did not stop as he continued to release them until the Sword Emanations Race beings started to tumble and crash down before he stopped. After a while, the weakness in his body had started to subside. However, he still had not thought of a good idea to save himself.

Although he had entered the Demon-Killing Palace for some time, it was at most a few Lower-Domain days. It was still a long way to go before reaching the one-Higher-Domain-day time limit. It was impossible to dream of being teleported out of here. As there were people everywhere, it was also not possible to want to flee. Holding Dao Feng hostage was even more laughable. Killing and breaking through the encirclement? His current strength was not sufficient.

“Is there no other way?”

Jiang Yi’s heart sank. He didn’t mind dying; he didn’t want Qi Qingchen and Poison Spirit to die with him. Thinking about Dao Feng’s character, what would happen if he captured Qi Qingchen? Jiang Yi didn’t even want to think about it.

“Ha!”

On the other side, He Nongying and Young Mistress Gongyang started to leap again. He Nongying took out her silver bow as she continuously shot out arrows at her feet to strike at the restrictions to cause small explosions. She used the impact from these explosions to continue jumping upwards. Young Mistress Gongyang took out a treasure sword as she continuously hacked at the stone steps. As both were quite strong and without a Jiang Yi hindering them, they finally successfully reached the top of the stone stage.

Hoo-Hoo!

Once they reached the stone dais, they immediately sat down cross-legged as they huffed and puffed while they tried to think of their next step. Dao Feng’s conjecture was right. Although the two could reach the stone stage, they had difficulties even standing upright, much less jumping and leaping upwards to obtain that treasure a thousand feet above.

He Nongying rested for a moment as she then opened her eyes, turning her head to look at Jiang Yi. However, Jiang Yi was buried among the Sword Emanations Race beings and was not visible. A sliver of pity flashed in her eyes. The surrounding pagodas and palace were already two thousand feet away from Jiang Yi; they obviously still could be moved. Once they reached a thousand feet of Jiang Yi, he would die.

Dao Feng wanted to kill Jiang Yi; He Nongying would definitely not help Jiang Yi and wouldn’t even say a word. To her, Jiang Yi was just a talent; there were many such people in the Heaven Domain. Would she offend Dao Feng for a person she was not acquainted with? Would she beg Dao Feng? He Nongying was not a fool.

He Nongying continued looking for a while and then decided not to care anymore. She raised her head and looked at the treasure box overhead as her brows raised. There must be cardinal treasures within the two treasure boxes. If not, they wouldn’t be so eye-catching and so hard to obtain.

Tsk! Tsk!

On the other side, an air-splitting sound rang out and startled He Nongying. Dao Zhan had started to test out his attacks. He furiously sent an attack forward. Although it kept on weakening as it traveled, it actually managed to reach the stone stage and strike one of the Sword Emanations Race beings.

Bang!

That Sword Emanations Race being was immediately cut apart. Although it didn’t turn into a fine powder, everyone’s eyes lit up as they all started their attacks. The people moving the pagodas and palace also grew excited as they continuously attacked the structure earnestly, moving them ever closer to Jiang Yi.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Jiang Yi heard the explosions around him and could detect the Sword Emanations Race beings exploding. His face was filled with agony as his heart sank. If the enemy could even attack so far away, once they came within a thousand feet of him, within ten minutes; all the Sword Emanations Race beings he had now would be destroyed. Once they were wiped out, what could Jiang Yi use to block the attacks?

He actually had a very powerful mummy; however, it could only block one side of the stone dais!

“Mummy?”

Suddenly, Jiang Yi’s heart skipped a beat. The mummy was very powerful; if he could refine it and could control it, wouldn’t that be his way out?

The mummy’s physical body was so strong; the gravity here would have no effect on it. If he could control it to move and attack, it could block the incoming attacks and even be used to kill Dao Feng and company.

Ss, ss!

Recalling how this mummy’s claw had destroyed his jade-white armor, Jiang Yi sucked in two cold breaths. He didn’t care about anything else as he immediately released the mummy and tried to think of a way to refine it.
