They took one mission which ended in a big chaos. Qi Qingchen did not dare to accept any more missions. Jiang Yi had to take care of the Mystic Thearch and the others, and he was injured as well. Qi Qingchen decided to give orders for everyone to take a day off.

The Mystic Thearch’s cultivation level was not bad. He was already a Demon-Killing Battle God, and his combined combat ability was comparable to that of Titled Battle Gods. Otherwise, he would not have been able to kill the few formidable martial artists whom the Bai Clan sent the last time. Thus, he recovered very quickly. In a few Lower-Domain days, he was completely recovered.

What astonished Jiang Yi was that the Mystic Thearch’s wife recovered even faster. In just one Lower-Domain day, she was almost completely back to normal. Even the wounds on her body were gone.

“Undying Race... that is a very special race. Of course, it’s not that they will never die. When their time is up, they will die as well. ‘Undying’ just means that their divine souls cannot be extinguished, and their physical bodies can never be destroyed. They can achieve Nirvana rebirth. Your friend’s combined combat ability would definitely be extremely formidable.

“If he trains together with the woman from the Undying Race, he can train himself in the Undying Seal. That’s a very powerful mystic ability. He could even realize the Undying Quintessence. If his luck is good, he would be able to break through to become a King-Ranked martial artist!”

After Qi Qingchen explained this to him, Jiang Yi became much less confused. When he heard the last sentence—however, his eyebrows twitched; and joy filled his eyes. If the Mystic Thearch could become a King-Ranked martial artist, he would not have such a hard time.

The Mystic Thearch was from the Stellarsky Domain. With one more formidable martial artist from the Stellarsky Domain, more people would be able to protect it. Naturally, he wanted the Mystic Thearch to be able to get stronger.

Jiang Yi thought about it for a long while and finally decided to send the Mystic Thearch and his family to Jiang Yi Prefecture. There, the Earth Emanations Sovereign would ensure their safety. They had too many enemies in the Demon-Buster Valley. The Mystic Thearch’s wife was also of the precious Undying Race. They would easily run into trouble.

What’s more, the Stellarsky Domain belonged to the Earth Emanations Domain. Jiang Yi could get Mo Lingqiu to help send the Mystic Thearch back to the Stellarsky Domain for a visit.

As for... him, he did not want to go back just yet. If Yi Chan and the others came back to his side, he would go there immediately. Now, however, he was alone. If the Buddha Thearch, Yin Thearch, and the others ask why Yi Chan and the rest did not come back with him, he would not know how to answer them.

The Mystic Thearch had no objection to this. Going anywhere would be the same for him. As long as he could be with his wife and his daughter, he would be able to train well to protect them better.

Jiang Yi found Mo Changhe and Di Qianjun. The former personally escorted the Mystic Thearch and his family back to the Earth Emanations Domain and promised that the three of them would be safe there.

The Mystic Thearch was gone!

Jiang Yi felt slightly bored. All he could do was resume his training in the army. He held onto the branch of the divine tree as he continued to think about the Quintessence. He was waiting for the day to go by so that he would be able to go out on missions again.

He also took some time to head down to the Sword Emanations Mystic Realm, in order to collect ten million more Sword Emanations Race beings. There were not many Sword Emanations Race beings left in his Wintry Pearl. These were good things. With a million Sword Emanations Race beings, even King-Ranked martial artists would have to consume a lot of effort just to kill him.

A day was enough. Qi Qingchen led the team out on a mission. This time, the mission was much simpler. What’s more, they were headed to a place far away from the other huge domains. Qi Qingchen was afraid that Jiang Yi would cause a huge commotion again so she did not dare to bring him on large-scale, dangerous missions.

This mission was very simple. All they had to do was get rid of low-grade Netherworld Envoys. In just half a day, the entire group was back. Jiang Yi felt like they had earned too little battle merits; without taking any rest, he requested for Qi Qingchen to take on more missions.

In fact, Jiang Yi had enough battle merits to go into the Primitive Mystic Realm once. However, his progress in the Primitive Mystic Realm was slightly slower. Jiang Yi wanted to take on a series of smaller missions. Once he had enough battle merits, he wanted to go into the Primordial Mystic Realm, so that he could realize the Quintessence once and for all.

The Primordial Mystic Realm was the strongest mystic realm in the Earth Domain. Qi Qingchen locked herself inside there for three days the last time and immediately realized the Quintessence. It was apparent that the speed of realization there was extremely high.

Jiang Yi discovered one problem!

His soul spirit was too weak. That was why he was taking much more time to realize things compared to Qi Qingchen. However, his soul spirit could not improve by too much at a time. He had to work on it slowly.

Thus, Jiang Yi prepared to set aside a year to go on missions, in order to strengthen his own soul spirit. He wanted to accumulate enough battle merits to get to the Primordial Mystic Realm. With one single trip, he would realize the Quintessence and then think of a way to break through to become a King-Ranked martial artist.

He had to become a King-Ranked martial artist before he walked into the Saint Spirit Domain with his chin up to request for his mother back. When that time came and the Phantom King refused to let her go, he would take her by force. This time, he did not go there to make a scene and request for her because the Phantom King stood up for him back at the Lava Wasteland earlier.

Spending tens of millions of divine roots, Jiang Yi purchased many huge, spirit-nourishing treasures. This allowed him to be able to work on his soul spirit at any time.

Both he and Qi Qingchen kept accepting missions. Each time they went out, they did three to four missions in a row before they rested for a day. Jiang Yi did not waste these days either; he either spent time cultivating his Mighty God Technique or trying to realize the Quintessence. He often sprinted straight into the hundred-thousand-times secret cultivation room to seclude himself once he returned from missions.

Once he became a Demon-Killing Battle God, he could start training the second level of the Mighty God Technique. However, this process was a long-drawn one; and this was so even though Jiang Yi had the divine tree leaf. If he did not have that leaf, he wondered how many years he would take to train the Might God Technique.

...

Just like that, time flew past each time Jiang Yi went into seclusion and went out on missions. In a blink of an eye, one month had passed.

During this one month, there was peace in the Earth Domain. The various domains did not want to discuss Jiang Yi. When the Demon-Buster Valley’s Army soldiers looked at Jiang Yi, they no longer looked like they were looking at a monster. Of course, they still feared him; nobody in the Demon-Buster Valley dared to provoke Jiang Yi.

What disappointed and frustrated Jiang Yi the most was...

The Green Eagle King was still not out of seclusion yet. That was why Yi Chan and the others were still in Young Eagle Valley. Without the Green Eagle King’s permission, nobody could go in. Jiang Yi was tempted to go to the Ink Feather Mystic Realm several times, but one look at his own skill levels left him helpless; he could only sit down and wait.

“The Purgatory Mystic Realm is in front!”

Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen were now in the void. The mission that they had accepted was not far from the Purgatory Mystic Realm. Since the Teleportation Formation was not fixed yet, Jiang Yi had not found the time to go there. This time, they happened to be on a mission in the vicinity. Naturally, they wanted to make a trip to the Purgatory Mystic Realm.

He owed the divine tree a favor, and he had failed to return for such a long time. Jiang Yi began to feel guiltier and guiltier. This time, he decided to personally thank the demon for its help. Qi Qingchen tagged along because she was worried about Jiang Yi.

After flying for a while, both of them finally arrived at the Purgatory Mystic Realm. The same rules applied; Qi Qingchen would enter Jiang Yi’s spatial divine item, and Jiang Yi would burrow through the Primordial Astral Gas around the Purgatory Mystic Realm.

“Eh? My luck is not bad; the divine tree is in the south!”

Once they entered the Purgatory Mystic Realm, Jiang Yi used his divine senses to scan the area and found the remnants of all the Sword Emanations Race beings from before. This was the same path he took before. The divine tree was not far from where they were.

“Go!”

Qi Qingchen shouted, a red sword appearing with a flash in her hands. She was prepared to scare the Lunar Beasts off. Jiang Yi immediately summoned a few Sword Emanations Race beings and said, “You don’t have to fight. Let’s go.”

With the Sword Emanations Race beings surrounding them, the two of them easily advanced towards the south. After flying for a couple of hours, they arrived in the vicinity of where the divine tree was supposed to stand. At once, both of their eyes filled with disappointment.

The divine tree was gone. There were also many remnants of Sword Emanations Race beings and Lunar Beasts where they were, but the huge, glowing tree had disappeared without a trace. It was almost as if it had never existed.

“Where could it go? Could it be in another place within the Purgatory Mystic Realm? Or did it ascend to the Heaven Domain?”

Jiang Yi mumbled to himself in disappointment. The Purgatory Mystic Realm was too big. Although Jiang Yi could suppress the Lunar Beasts here with his Divine Sound Laws and he was not in any danger, he would still need several days to look around the entire Purgatory Mystic Realm.

“Forget it, Jiang Yi. Perhaps the Lord does not want to see you for now. If you have a chance in the future, you can thank her.”

Qi Qingchen comforted Jiang Yi softly as she activated her divine senses and looked around the mystic realm. She wanted to see if the divine tree would appear nearby. In the end, however, she searched in vain. She did not manage to find even a single tree branch.

“Eh... what is that?”

Qi Qingchen’s eyebrows suddenly twitched as she looked around and saw something on the floor. Once again, she searched the area. Waving her sword, she managed to make a deep pit in the ground. At last, she found a pearl.

It was a light green pearl with subtle, green dragon patterns on it. It looked like there was an azure dragon sealed inside.
