Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 725: This Chief Wants You Dead!

This time, when Jiang Yi came to Black Wind Mountain Range, he had already made preparations for a worst-case scenario. It was to escape using his Heaven Evasion. However, this was his final trump card, and unless he had no other choice at the critical moment, there was no way he would use it.

There was only one person who could use the Heaven Evasion divine skill. No one else could execute it!

He didn’t know if there were any clan members of the Nine Thearchs Clans hiding in Sin Island or if there were experts who had a close relationship with the Nine Thearchs Clans. He wondered if members of the thirteen clans on Sin Island would try to rob him of his treasures once they knew his identity.

‘Someone careful can drive a boat for ten thousand years without it sinking.’ The moment he unleashed Heaven Evasion, and an absolute master probed him out, his identity would be instantly revealed to the world. It was very likely he would attract the attention of numerous experts who would hunt him down.

As such, he would never execute Heaven Evasion until the last possible second. He never thought that at this critical moment, his defense would be raised to such a terrifying level by fusing the dao patterns and the route map.

In fact, this proved that his decision was the right one. If he thought of using Heaven Evasion to escape in the first place, there was no way he could force himself into such desperate straits. This meant that he wouldn’t be able to unleash all the hidden potential in him where he managed to create such a powerful Thunder Fire Divine Shield.

Now that he possessed the Thunder Fire Divine Shield, his opponents wouldn’t be able to kill him. Naturally, he wouldn’t remain courteous to those who tried to kill him before. After Gui Ying scammed eighty million celestial stones from him, he had to make Gui Ying spit it back out along with the interest he owed.

Burst!

As he formed a seal with both hands, he unleashed the dao patterns, the Wind Myriad and Binding of Wind. The Thunder Fire shield around his body exploded and turned into lumps of Thunder Fire which shot out in all directions. Jiang Yi’s figure flashed and retrieved all the Thunder Fire in a split-second.

“Thunder Fire Divine Shield!”

He released several hundred lumps of Thunder Fire once again, and his arms danced wildly in the air to execute the two dao patterns. Once again, the Thunder Fire rapidly shrunk and followed the lines on the route map as they revolved around his body. As the lumps of Thunder Fire around his body quickly pulled back, it formed a Thunder Fire divine shield which was deep blue in color while Jiang Yi’s figure disappeared from his original location.

The Thunder Fire, which was in his original shield, had already depleted by more than half. If several experts were to attack him at the same time, things would get dangerous. As such, Jiang Yi condensed a new shield which made it much safer in case anything happened.

...

“Great Commander, what do we do now?”

In an underground tunnel thirty kilometers away, the facial expressions of several dozens of people standing beside Gui Ying fluctuate continuously. Initially, there were a hundred and fifty of them. Jiang Yi killed several people at the start, and after that, Yang Dong and the others killed more than forty of them. Now, thirty to forty people died in succession, and there were around sixty of them left.

A group of over sixty Heaven Monarchs possessed terrifying combat strength. However, Jiang Yi could kill thirty or forty of them in a short amount of time. One of them, who were killed by him, was a top-class expert who was the third commander. What did this tell them? It showed them that it was extremely possible for Jiang Yi to possess the strength to annihilate them to the last man.

The Black Wind Legion had been established for many years, and the great commander—Gui Ying’s soul spirit attack would strike terror in many people’s heart. It was a pity... when faced with such a freak like Jiang Yi, Gui Ying’s strongest soul spirit attack was completely ineffective. This caused everyone to panic while they were a little fearful in their heart. The mountain bandits had always been bullying the weak and afraid of the strong, and the moment they met an expert they couldn’t beat, they would instantly scuttle away.

“What are you panicking for?”

Gui Ying’s eyes flickered ceaselessly. As he gritted his teeth, a small black drum appeared in his hand. In a stern voice, he yelled, “We’re putting everything on the line for one last time. If we can’t kill this brat, we’ll retreat! Anyone who dares to retreat prematurely and affect the morale of my troops, I’ll kill them without mercy!”

The killing intent on Gui Ying’s body rolled out in waves. Although there was a soft voice in his head telling him to retreat, he was extremely unwilling to leave just like that. After putting in so much blood and sweat, the Black Wind Legion finally possessed much prestige and power. Now that more than half of their Heaven Monarchs died in such a short amount of time, how would he be content with merely eighty million celestial stones?

“Spread out, we’ll close in on him in a fan formation. The moment we catch up to that brat, everyone will unleash their strongest attack immediately. If anyone dares to hold back, I’ll definitely kill them.”

Gui Ying howled once again, and everyone instantly formed a fan formation as they shot out towards Jiang Yi. However, after traveling several tens of kilometers, they felt a sharp spike in the temperature; and it was getting hotter and hotter. Jiang Yi was actually charging towards them.

“Kill—!”

With a loud howl from Gui Ying, his huge hands started to beat the drums continuously. Even until now, he didn’t believe that Jiang Yi was immune to his soul spirit attack. Of course... his strongest attack was his soul spirit attack. All his other attacks were at best the level of low-staged Heaven Monarchs. Even if he really did unleash them, they were useless.

“Die!”

The mace in the hands of another commander emitted a divine white light as he smashed it viciously towards Jiang Yi. The instant the mace left his hand, it started to swell up. In the end, it turned into a giant mace which was over twenty meters in diameter, and it glowed with a bright white light. Wherever it passed, the mud and rocks turned into dust, and violent spatial fluctuations could be seen which transformed into waves as it propagated into the distance. The surface of several hundred kilometers started to vibrate incessantly, and it was awfully terrifying.

This commander was one of the top three commanders in the Black Wind Legion. He never unleashed such a terrifying attack with his mace which was obviously a transcending saint artifact. Now that he was forced into a corner, he could only reveal his strongest attack.

The other dozens of experts attacked as well. Some shot out beams of light, others attacked with dao patterns, and some congealed some type of extraordinary abilities. The might of this combined attack was much stronger than their previous attack as they obviously used their strongest moves in this one.

“Just in time!”

Jiang Yi entered the state of the Union of Heaven and Man, and he no longer dared to instant-shift. He dodged the attacks as quickly as he could by tilting his body to the left and right and shifting his body up and down. He managed to dodge many attacks by the experts this way. This time, he no longer dared to be careless. He was ready to exterminate Gui Ying, and he naturally had to give it his all.

Hoo-Hoo!

The speed of the mace was too fast, and before he could dodge, it was already in his face. Jiang Yi could only clench his teeth and forcefully take on the attack as he tried his best to shift his body several meters to the side.

The mace was like a giant mountain which flew at him. The heavy impact sent him flying, but if continued to whistle towards Jiang Yi even after slamming into him. Jiang Yi quickly reacted and a trace of laughter appeared on his lips. This mace really possessed a lot of power, but this attack only made him consume a third of his Thunder Fire. As long as this mace wasn’t able to smash him to death, other than the attacks of middle-stage Heaven Monarchs, the consumption of his Thunder Fire was negligible when faced with every other attack.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Countless attacks rained on him, but they were either dodged by Jiang Yi or slid away after colliding with the Thunder Fire Divine Shield which was surrounding him. Jiang Yi was like a supreme war god who couldn’t be defeated. No matter how the attacks slammed into him, the blue shield around his body just wouldn’t break.

“Die—!”

After the powerful attacks of several experts whistled past him and were deflected by the Thunder Fire Divine Shield, a white glow surrounded Jiang Yi’s body; and he unleashed the instant shift to arrive at the furthest distance possible.

His instant shift this time managed to bring him almost 30 kilometers out, and he instantly closed up a huge distance between him and his opponents. A terrifying heat swept past them, and the Fire Spirit Pearl in Jiang Yi’s hand lit up. The Fire Dragon Sword made its appearance and countless slashes were sent out in an instant.

“Ah? Retreat!”

The martial artists around him exclaimed in shock, and the aura of death that enveloped them made them completely forget Gui Ying’s order. All of them flew backward as they tried to retreat. However, the heat wave was already on them, and their speed drastically dropped. They felt a scorching heat engulf them to the point where it became uncomfortably hot. They wanted nothing more than to shatter their armor and tear their skin in order to escape from the heat.

“Retreat, retreat!”

Terror finally gripped Gui Ying. In the combined attack of more than sixty people, Jiang Yi definitely got hit by thirty attacks at the very least. However, his damn shield was still intact. Gui Ying’s soul spirit attack was like mud flowing into the sea as it was completely useless against Jiang Yi. If he didn’t leave now, he was definitely going to die here.

“Are you still able to escape?”

Jiang Yi didn’t care about the life or death of other people. His divine senses were firmly locked onto Gui Ying as he slashed out endlessly with his Fire Dragon Sword. Charging towards Gui Ying without a care about anything else, the heat wave fully overwhelmed him which caused him to feel as though his entire body was on fire. His speed also dropped to that of a snail’s crawl.

Five miles, four miles... three miles!

Initially, Gui Ying’s speed was much faster than Jiang Yi’s. However, after he was enveloped in the heat wave, his speed dropped so much it was no longer comparable than before. Adding Jiang Yi’s intent to chase him down, he became even slower. He felt as though the temperature was getting higher and higher, and he knew that the distance between him and Jiang Yi was closing fast.

The divine shield around his body could still hold on for several moments. However, if this kept up, he would be dead without a doubt. His pupils spun around, and he yelled at the top of his lungs, “Lone Wolf, I’ll return your celestial stones, and we shall let this matter rest! How about it?”

Jiang Yi approached him from behind like a violent blue dragon. With his figure shrouded in the Thunder Fire divine shield—coupled with his ice-cold gaze, he looked extremely terrifying. A cold smile formed at the corner of his lips, and a long roar left his lips, “Rest your goddamn ass! This Chief wants you dead!”
