Chapter 1583: Tempting a Foodie

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Seven King-Ranked formidable martial artists; more than ten thousand Titled Battle Gods!

This was a force that could flatten many big domains. However, they had gathered for the purpose of killing just one man. Even if it was the Earth Emanations Sovereign—instead of Jiang Yi—that was surrounded in this Lava Wasteland, the former would not have been able to break through.

Hence, Jiang Yi had not moved at the start. He did not want to trigger them all. If the seven King-Ranked martial artists joined forces, Jiang Yi would be dead without a doubt. Now that only Heavenly King You had descended into this place, it was the most ideal situation he could have expected.

He thought of many things in the past four hours, trying to find ways to escape and a pathway to survival. Although he was facing seven King-Ranked formidable martial artists, he had not given up yet. He was not going to sit and wait for death and would fight until the last second.

Thinking through many ideas, Jiang Yi realized there was only one possible way: using the Fire Spirit Pearl fire-repelling abilities to get near to the heaven-and-earth special flames and try to injure or scare away Heavenly King You. This way, everyone would grow more cautious and wouldn’t dare to continue pursuing him.

He had said the few sentences directed at the Heavenly King You to infuriate him, make him lose his cool, and head closer to the heaven-and-earth special flames. The Heaven-Swallowing Beast said that the heaven-and-earth special flames here were the tenth among the Top Ten Burning Flames in the Earth Domain: Prairie Flames. Its temperature was frightening.

Swish!

Jiang Yi’s speed was at his limit; he continued to rush into the lava pool. His speed was merely a sliver slower than Heavenly King You’s; he had activated the Power of Heaven and Earth. Once the Power of Heaven and Earth had circulated in his body, his physical body and speed were now comparable to Qi Qingchen’s.

Hence, he had chosen to flee the moment when Heavenly King You had entered this place and before Heavenly King You had reached the cave. This way, Heavenly King You needed at least tens of seconds to reach Jiang Yi; and he would have ample time to reach the bottom of the lava pool.

“Jiang Yi, you dog; if I do not kill you today, I don’t deserve to be a man!”

Hearing the words ‘having no descendants left’, Heavenly King You’s eyes reddened as he thought of the hundreds of thousands of Divine Yang Race members that had perished, of almost all the Divine Yang Race formidable martial artists being dead. Rage built up inside him as his speed increased by a sliver as he soon followed behind Jiang Yi and rushed into the lava pool.

“Uh?”

Once the two entered the lava pool, the lava pool blocked the ability of divine senses. Even though Heavenly King Wu, White River King, and the others’ divine senses were very powerful, they had tracked Heavenly King You and Jiang Yi for a few hundred kilometers and couldn’t locate them anymore. The Earth Emanations Sovereign and Phantom King in the distance also experienced the same thing. Everyone could only repeatedly send their divine senses forward to wait and see.

“Eh?”

The lava pool was very deep; it was at least fifty thousand kilometers deep. The two had instantly plunged five thousand kilometers downwards already. Heavenly King You locked onto Jiang Yi as he started to question: how could Jiang Yi be so fast? Heavenly King You had heard that Jiang Yi had grown stronger; however, his speed was actually even comparable to some King-Ranked martial artists. Could Jiang Yi have broken through?

“Chase!”

Regardless, Heavenly King You was prepared to kill Jiang Yi today. His eyes were icy-cold like wild beasts, and his killing aura was so strong it could possibly even congeal a real being. His divine senses were locked onto Jiang Yi continuously as he calculated the distance between him and Jiang Yi. The long spear in his hand shone as he was prepared to attack.

Five kilometers, two-and-a-half-kilometers, one-and-a-half-kilometers... five hundred meters!

The black dragon revolving about Heavenly King You’s long spear swam around; as long as he could be closer by a few hundred meters, he was confident of killing Jiang Yi.

Tsk! Tsk!

However, at that moment, Jiang Yi actually paused as he slammed out tens of streaks of red light; Jiang Yi had launched an attack first.

How fast was Heavenly King You’s reaction? Jiang Yi’s attacking speed was very slow to him. Although Heavenly King You did not know what the red glow was, he easily evaded the red light as he launched his black long spear; and a black dragon wailed forward, heading straight for Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi had used his Power of Heaven and Earth; his speed was still passable while the two were still a distance apart. Jiang Yi tried his best to evade and successfully avoided the black dragon. However, he was still blasted by the force that the black dragon carried with it. Jiang Yi’s body was propelled forward like a gunny sack.

“Alright!”

A sliver of blood appeared at the corner of Jiang Yi’s mouth as his eyes shone. He had attacked first to trigger Heavenly King You to attack prematurely. This way, he could use the force from Heavenly King You’s strike to accelerate his own speed to flee.

Internally, Jiang Yi was crying out bitterly. He had thought that the bottom of the lava pool would not be that deep, and he would reach it soon. He had not expected that after so long, the bottom was still not within sight; and there were still no signs of the Prairie Flames.

Jiang Yi borrowed the force of the black dragon as he immediately lengthened the distance between him and Heavenly King You to more than five kilometers; Jiang Yi’s speed was now at his limit as he desperately tried to flee. Behind him, Heavenly King You also started to cry out bitterly in silence.

Because—

The temperature here was getting higher and higher; it was at least double that of the lava pool surface. Heavenly King You’s heavenly powers were being depleted at a rapid rate. His attack at Jiang Yi just now had not been his full force; he had been focused on injecting heavenly powers into his fire-repelling pearl. If not, Jiang Yi would definitely have perished.

The deeper they went, the higher the temperature was.

Heavenly King You constantly had to be wary of whether the fire-repelling pearl could still withstand the heat or not; Jiang Yi, however, was perfectly fine. Heavenly King You silently wondered: what kind of fire-repelling treasure did Little Eagle King give Jiang Yi? He didn’t know of any such powerful treasure surfacing in the Earth Domain; it couldn’t be a Dao Heaven Spiritual Treasure, right?

Swish!

After thinking for a while, Heavenly King You still could not figure it out; he could only grit his teeth and continue flying forward. However, after more than five kilometers, he realized that his fire-repelling pearl seemed to be on the verge of breaking. The high temperatures seem to be seeping through the protective barrier, resulting in a burning sensation from his body; Heavenly King You felt as if he was being barbecued.

“This can’t do! I have to kill Jiang Yi quickly. If not, my speed will be affected soon!”

The higher the temperature was, the more one’s blood would boil; disrupting the circulation of heavenly powers, making the entire body scream out in pain, and affecting one’s judgment. Although Heavenly King You wouldn’t die even if the fire-repelling pearl was destroyed, Heavenly King You still felt that things were not going well. He was prepared to kill Jiang Yi as soon as he could.

“Heaven-and-earth special flames!”

Ahead, Jiang Yi’s divine senses had finally detected a mass of huge, orange-red burning flames as he was elated. His divine senses also detected the presence of his little beast in the burning flames, as well as the twenty thousand over Heaven Flame Beasts; they were all hiding within the flames.

Swish!

With Heavenly King You flying forward crazily, Jiang Yi’s divine senses immediately locked onto his little beast and shouted, “Little Ferocious, wake up! Control the Heaven Flame Beasts to kill someone for me!”

Jiang Yi’s Fire Spirit Pearl had twenty thousand Heaven Flame Beasts; the problem was he couldn’t control them. Without the Heaven-Swallowing Beast, the Heaven Flame Beasts were just wild creatures.

However—

The Heaven-Swallowing Beast did not respond; it was obviously still deep in seclusion. As Heavenly King You gained on him, Jiang Yi did not dare to head forward any further, afraid the terrifying flames would turn him into a fine powder.

His eyes shifted as he sent another voice transmission: “Little Ferocious, wake up! I found the Tian Qi flowers; I have good stuff for you to eat!”

Buzz!

The Heaven-Swallowing Beast in slumber actually opened its eyes; delicacies were a powerful temptation for foodies. Jiang Yi hurriedly sent him a few more voice transmissions as he also slashed his sword behind him. His Fire Spirit Pearl also shone as countless Heaven Flame Beasts appeared. Jiang Yi released a wind-element dao pattern as he used wind dragons to propel the Heaven Flame Beasts backward towards Heavenly King You.

Creak-creak!

Little beast’s cries rang out as the dead-like Heaven Flame Beasts finally moved. Using Jiang Yi’s wind-element dao pattern, they transformed into streaks of red light as they flew backward and enveloped the pursuing Heavenly King You.

Crack!

As the Heaven Flame Beasts grew near, the temperature around Heavenly King You rose many folds. The green pearl in Heavenly King You’s hand finally couldn’t take it anymore. Multiple cracks appeared on it, and it split into many fragments.
