Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 1514: Baneful Aura

You Tianni and company were now being heavily surrounded by the Sword Emanations Race army; they could only kill Jiang Yi by launching a sneak attack!

They were not far from Jiang Yi; if the Sword Emanations Race beings did not block them, they could rush to Jiang Yi’s side in a few seconds. Not even factoring in Yi Wu and his three companions, any of the twenty Titled Battle God-equivalent formidable martial artists could easily kill him.

As this concerned their survival, no one dared to conserve their strength. They decided to act together and split into two waves. Yi Wu and the others from the Phantom Race would be the first wave while You Tianni and the other twenty would be the second wave. They wanted to guarantee that they would be able to kill Jiang Yi!

“Rush!”

You Tianni shouted as everyone acted. Yi Wu and his three companions concealed themselves and went forward. They weaved through the Sword Emanations Race beings like four poisonous snakes and charged straight towards Jiang Yi.

“Yi Wu and three others are coming! Hurry up and retreat, young lord!”

Ordinary martial artists would not have been able to detect the Phantom Race in stealth mode. However, Poison Spirit was also from the Phantom Race and was a master at the Art of Concealment; he had realized it immediately. He shouted as a dagger appeared in his remaining hand, preparing to release the Divine Spirit Thrust to fight to the death.

Yi Wu and his companions were all prominent figures in the Phantom Race. If he killed even one of them, he would never be able to return to the Phantom Race in this life. However, could he care about so much at this time? If Jiang Yi died, he would die as well; Poison Spirit could only give it his all now.

“Keke!”

Jiang Yi laughed faintly; he did not retreat but actually patted Poison Spirit on the back and said, “You do not need to attack. There are so many Sword Emanations Race beings around us; why do we need to lift a finger?”

Poison Spirit was an expert at the Art of Concealment while Jiang Yi’s Art of Concealment had also reached the Phenomenal Stage; he could vaguely detect the turbulence in the air caused by the Yi Wu and the other three, thereby tracking their movements. Jiang Yi did not attack but cried out, “Yi Wu, my mother is Yi Piaopiao; I am considered half a member of the Phantom Race! I can use the Art of Concealment as well. I give you one chance now: immediately stop this attack and return to the Phantom Race to ask for forgiveness. If not... I will kill you all!”

“Uh?”

Yi Wu and his companions hesitated slightly; after all, Yi Piaopiao’s name was very significant to them. She was part of the royal family of the Phantom Race. However, after Yi Wu hesitated for a moment, he immediately shouted back, “You say that you are Young Mistress Piaopiao’s son; why must we believe you? Why don’t you say that you are Lord Yi Tu’s illegitimate son?”

“Fool!”

Jiang Yi scolded coldly, “Why would Poison Spirit pledge allegiance to me? Open your eyes and see; is this your Art of Concealment?”

Buzz!

Jiang Yi’s body flashed in white light and disappeared in midair. Poison Spirit’s voice rang out, “Young Master Yi Wu, Young Lord is really Young Mistress Piaopiao’s son. His identity... is known to the Clan King as well. If you kill him, you will bring trouble to yourself; and you will definitely die. Go back now and seek forgiveness; you guys might still be able to live!”

“Ask for forgiveness? Hahahaha!”

Yi Wu laughed out loud as his icy voice rang out again, “Regardless if you are Young Mistress Piaopiao’s son or not; you have to die today!”

An arrow fitted on a bow-string could not avoid being discharged.

Yi Wu could no longer turn back. This matter had been a gamble all along. If he succeeded in helping You Tianni, he would soar up into the clouds and even have a chance at becoming Phantom King. If not, he would not have this chance again in his entire life. He was a disciple from a branch lineage and wasn’t from the royal family. As long as Yi Buhui existed, Yi Wu could only be a servant to the royal family his entire life.

Yi Wu was an evildoer; he was a genius!

He was much more gifted than Yi Buhui and was stronger than him as well. However, his status within the Phantom Race could not compete with Yi Buhui; they weren’t in the same league at all. Yi Wu was born into a humble family, and if he did not create a shortcut for himself, he would forever be subservient to Yi Buhui. Yi Wu did not want this; he wanted to become the high and mighty Phantom King. That was why he had agreed to come on this mission this time.

Hence, Jiang Yi had to die. If Yi Wu went back to ask for forgiveness, he would never have the chance to rise up the ranks in his entire life anymore.

“You don’t know the meaning of death!”

Jiang Yi sensed that Yi Wu and his companions were still rushing over and did not hesitate anymore. His Fire Dragon Sword danced as he slashed it in four directions!

Buzz!

The Fire Dragon Sword lit up as four fire dragons swam from it. However, they did not become four sword glows but actually became four streaks of red light. These four streaks of red light were like the red clouds of Sword Emanations Race beings before; they swarmed forward and enveloped Yi Wu and his three companions.

“Ah?”

The four streaks of red clouds were not energy attacks; they weren’t soul spirit attacks either. They were actually a very special attacking technique!

“What terrifying baneful aura!”

Yi Wu’s whole body and soul spirit were shaken. After the red cloud enveloped him, he felt as if he had entered hell. The killing aura was all about him while there were corpses everywhere; they were all vicious ghosts. Every one streak of red light felt like a vicious ghost, wanting to tear apart his body. An evil-foreboding air was triggered in him as his mind was full of killing intent; Yi Wu wanted to kill all the living things and enemies around him!

“Kill! Kill! Kill...”

Yi Wu and the three Phantom Race formidable martial artists all materialized. They could no longer conceal themselves as their eyes turned bloodshot, and they wielded their weapons, attacking with abandon. They were evidently going on a rampage and were not thinking straight.

“What horror!”

Poison Spirit looked at Jiang Yi’s Fire Dragon Sword as his eyes were filled with astonishment. However, he soon understood; this should be the attribute of the Sword Emanations King, right? The Sword Emanations King had baneful aura all around it; the baneful aura could subtly affect its enemies. Even Qi Qingchen could not resist the baneful aura after killing for two hours; the Sword Emanations Race’s baneful aura was indeed terrifying.

Ordinary Sword Emanations Race beings’ baneful aura was already very strong. How powerful was the Sword Emanations King’s baneful aura? As could be seen from Yi Wu and his three companions, probably all Titled Battle God-equivalent martial artists without strong soul spirits would all be afflicted.

“Go!”

Jiang Yi shouted as he grabbed Poison Spirit and hurriedly retreated. You Tianni was still holding Qi Qingchen hostage; however, Jiang Yi did not bother about this at this moment. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to save her, but that he needed a way to do so. Poison Spirit had been severely injured while his own defenses were too weak. If he was accidentally killed, this situation could still turn against them!

Jiang Yi brought Poison Spirit as they swiftly retreated. The Sword Emanations Race beings behind them all stood apart and opened a way for them and then reforming the encirclement immediately, blocking anyone from chasing Jiang Yi.

“Rush! Rush! Rush!”

Many Titled Battle God-equivalent formidable martial artists all roared as they desperately attacked and sent the Sword Emanations Race beings flying. They swiftly closed the distance between Jiang Yi and themselves. They were very clear that if they did not kill Jiang Yi today, while they didn’t know if You Tianni would die or not, they themselves would definitely perish.

However—

After giving their all for a while and pulling the distance between themselves and Jiang Yi to a mere thirty thousand feet, Jiang Yi actually vanished.

Jiang Yi had unleashed the Art of Concealment, and everyone had suddenly lost their target. They were not from the Phantom Race and could not lock onto Jiang Yi even if they wanted to. From all directions, the Sword Emanations Race beings were all attacking them now. How could they focus on locating Jiang Yi?

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Hordes and hordes of Sword Emanations Race beings were pouring forward, responding to Jiang Yi’s summons that had gone out in a five-million-kilometers-radius. As the Sword Emanations King itself was here, there were many members of the Sword Emanations Race within this radius. The few million Sword Emanations Race beings that had been hunting Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen before were all in the vicinity.

After pursuing for a while—although some could occasionally still make out Jiang Yi’s tracks, their concentration was swiftly broken again under the barrage of assaults by the Sword Emanations Race. After half a minute, everyone utterly lost sight of Jiang Yi’s whereabouts. You Hong then shouted, “Stop chasing! Let’s try and break through! If we do not break through soon, Young Master You would die here.”

“Break through? Haha!”

Jiang Yi had concealed himself and retreated tens of kilometers. Hearing You Hong’s voice, Jiang Yi’s mouth twitched as a sliver of mockery appeared. He murmured, “There are more than eight million Sword Emanations Race beings in a five-million-kilometers-radius here. I would like to see how you guys are going to break through.”

“More than eight million?”

Poison Spirit’s body shivered. More than eight million Sword Emanations Race beings; disregarding You Tianni and his twenty followers, even ten thousand Titled Battle Gods would still be unable to break through, right?
