There were few divine artifacts!
If Jiang Yi had not already obtained the Mystic Divine Saber and Mystic Divine Armor, he would not have believed that the Stellarsky Domain contained divine artifacts. At this moment, this exquisite beauty had a divine artifact battle armor wrapped around her body. How could he not be shocked?
Yet, he finally understood Xing Mengwan’s battle skills. She made use of the array and the divine artifact battle armor to fend off others’ attacks. Then, she rapidly grabbed hold of Jiang Yi without giving him any time to respond. The North Thearch, Battle Thearch, Evil Thearch, and the others would then come in and attack him.
She used herself as bait so that Jiang Yi—the big fish—could be caught. Everything was in the palm of her hand. Jiang Yi finally understood why he hated Mengwan. He hated this type of control. He hated people who could calculate every variable and manipulate things so that they played according to plan. This reminded him of Ji Tingyu immediately!
Tsk-tsk! Boom-boom!
The Battle Thearch, Evil Thearch, North Thearch, and the others were ready to attack Jiang Yi all at once. The Battle Thearch released his strongest nine-star dao pattern, the Overlord-Destroying Spear. The Evil Thearch activated his own eight-star dao pattern—the Soul-Splitting Arrow, and the Battle Thearch blew on his Soul-Hooking Flute. Both of them were meant to affect Jiang Yi’s soul spirit so that he would not be able to defend himself. The Beast Thearch did not dare to personally attack him anymore. After all, the rest of them were making use of such strong dao patterns. If he dared to go near Jiang Yi, he would surely perish as well. He, too, decided to use his own dao pattern. The North Thearch chose his nine-star dao pattern, the Spatial Shackles, so that Jiang Yi would have nowhere to run.
The various dao patterns landed harshly on Jiang Yi’s body, but the good thing was that Jiang Yi managed to push the little fox back into the Mystic Divine Palace in the second just before he got caught. Otherwise, the little fox might have been turned into dust. He could have entered the Mystic Divine Palace himself, but the palace’s energy was too weak now. He was afraid that the palace would not be able to withstand the attacks. If it broke apart; Yi Chan, Mo Yao’er, Su Ruoxue, Jiang Yunhai, and the others would surely die on the spot.
Jiang Yi thus decided to face the attacks. He chose to believe in the Mystic Divine Armor. It was a divine artifact after all. If it could not withstand nine-star dao patterns, how did the Mystic Thearch rule the world in the past?
As the Overlord-Destroying Spear shot like a black beam of light toward Jiang Yi’s back, the Soul-Hooking Sound entered his soul spirit. The Evil Thearch and Beast Thearch made their attacks as well, which all hit Jiang Yi squarely on the body.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Jiang Yi was set as the center as all the space in a three-meter radius around him got ripped apart. The North Thearch’s Space Imprisonment was taking effect as well, causing all the space around Jiang Yi to twist and turn. Everything was falling apart. The frightening impact from the attacks was spreading outward and destroying everything, causing all the demons and humans within a five-kilometer-radius to escape once again. Many demons and humans puked out blood as they made their escape. The scene before their eyes was terrifying!
“Young Master!” “Jiang Yi!” “Boss!”
Jiang Xiaonu, Qian Wanguan, Zhan Wushuang, and the other screamed out in a panic. The Black Deity and Shadow Emperor were shocked as well. If Jiang Xiaonu died, the demons would have no hope for sure.
“Keke!”
Ao Lu smiled without any hint of panic. He shook his head and said, “Don’t worry. If the Mystic Divine Armor could break this easily, it would be known for being the Mystic Thearch’s battle armor. This battle armor is not just a divine artifact. The Mystic Divine Armor used this armor to create a huge defensive dao pattern. Jiang Yi will not die but… he will suffer.”
“Pfff!”
Indeed, a huge black hole appeared. Jiang Yi’s body appeared within it. He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. His entire face was drained of all color, and there were obvious wounds on his chest and back. A few of his bones were broken, and he was suffering from internal injuries. His head swayed back and forth as if his brain was injured as well.
“I did not want to kill you. Yet, you take me as your enemy time and time again. If that’s how you want to play it, I will not be kind to you anymore!”
Jiang Yi’s eyes became blood-red. He turned to fix his gaze on the Evil Thearch, Beast Thearch, and Sword Thearch. Jiang Yi was not sure that he could kill the North Thearch and Battle Thearch, but he was sure he would be able to get rid of the first three! An aura of hostility and violence covered his body. The whip that held him had already been destroyed by the attacks earlier. He waved both of his hands, causing the Fire Dragon Sword to cut through the air. Suddenly, he locked the Evil Thearch as his first target.
“Run—”
The Evil Thearch, Beast Thearch, and Sword Thearch trembled under Jiang Yi’s gaze. How could Jiang Yi still be alive after enduring such terrifying attacks? They were truly afraid in their hearts. The Evil Thearch was the most afraid. At that moment, he was so scared that he felt like his soul would leave his body. The three Fire Dragons were hot on his heels.
“Can you still run?”
Jiang Yi laughed mockingly. Not only can the Divinity Slayer make use of the power of heaven and earth to make its attack, but it could also use the power of heaven and earth to suppress others. With one hand, he congealed a seal to cause the heaven and earth to be activated. A formless force pressed down on the Evil Thearch, causing him to lose control of his own body. All he could do was watch as the three Fire Dragons sped toward him.
“No!”
The Evil Thearch knew that his life was threatened. He shouted out in pure rage and desperation. On seeing this, the North Thearch and Battle Thearch narrowed their eyes. The Battle Thearch cried out, “Jiang Yi, if you dare to kill the Evil Thearch, you will truly become an enemy of the human race. The Nine Thearch Clans will not rest until you die!”
“Hahahaha!”
Jiang Yi laughed maniacally as he shouted back in response, “Battle Thearch, stop your nonsense! The Nine Thearchs can kill anyone they want, but other people are not allowed to kill the Nine Thearchs? What kind of logic is that? Evil Thearch, die!”
Jiang Yi controlled the three Fire Dragons as they rushed crazily toward the Evil Thearch. There was a blinding white light. A frightening aura filled the entire place. The Evil Thearch twisted and turned in the air. His divine shield was become darker and darker by the second. At last, it fell apart. The Evil Thearch was swallowed by the molten lava that was the Fire Dragons’ body. Then; flesh, blood, and bones flew in all directions.
Evil Thearch, die!
Death filled the place. Although they could still hear the sound of the waves and the explosions all around them, everybody felt the silence of death. Suddenly, they could not hear anything else. The humans could not believe their eyes. They looked at the pieces that once made up the Evil Thearch’s body, thinking that they were in a dream.
The Nine Thearchs!
They were the humans’ most formidable martial artists. They were the leaders of the human race. They were the peak of existence!
For seven hundred thousand years, the Nine Thearchs’ power had been entrenched in everybody’s souls. Everybody knew that the Nine Thearchs could not be beaten, destroyed, nor beaten down. They were like divine spirits that existed above the Nine Heavens. Everybody thought they would never die.
Yet, today, countless humans watched as the Evil Thearch—one of the Nine Thearchs—died. Like a little warrior, his body was torn into pieces and left to burn in flames.
The myth that they were unbeatable had finally been broken. It was like the number-one rule of the world was broken. Many people thought they were seeing the end of the world. The army’s morale had fallen to the absolute lowest it had ever been. If the other Demigods were killed, nobody would have felt anything much; but the Evil Thearch’s death shocked them.
“Ah… the Mystic Divine Armor is too strong. The Mystic Thearch must have hidden some kind of eight-star earth-elemental dao pattern in it, didn’t he?”
Xing Mengwan’s beautiful eyes widened slightly. She looked down at the broken whip in her hands and then at the pieces of the Evil Thearch’s body. Then, she shook her head helplessly. With a gentle wave of her hand, she said, “Let’s go. The Battle Thearch and the North Thearch cannot kill Jiang Yi. There’s no point in staying here. We’ve tried our best. Let’s go back to the Heaven Nether Sect.”
The other nine Demigods quickly flew over to protect Xing Mengwan. Together, they flew off into the distance. There was no hesitation at all. They left as quickly as they came. Just like that, they decided not to bother.
The Beast Thearch and Sword Thearch watched as Xing Mengwan and the group flew off. The Heaven Nether Sect’s Saint Lady was leaving too soon, wasn’t she? Did she not care about their lives? The North Thearch and Battle Thearch stiffened. If the people of Heaven Nether Sect left, they would have no way of fighting this war.
“You want to leave?”
Jiang Xiaonu’s gaze hardened. She turned into green light and chased after Xing Mengwan and the others. Her speed was much greater than Xing Mengwan’s group. Very easily, she would catch up to them.
“Xiaonu, come back.”
Jiang shouted loud and clear. Xing Mengwan had the divine artifact battle armor on her body. She also had different strange battle formations. This woman was far too scary. Jiang Xiaonu would only be putting herself in danger by going after them.
After calling out to Jiang Xiaonu, Jiang Yi did not kill another person. Instead, he scanned the Battle Thearch’s and North Thearch’s faces. He waved the Fire Dragon Sword in his hand and shouted in a cool tone, “Are you going to retreat or not? If you don’t, then don’t blame me for being heartless!”
