As people were pursuing outside, Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit could only go deeper into the gorge. This gorge was quite long; after speeding forward for a few hundred kilometers, the end to it was nowhere to be seen. The air-splitting noises behind the duo were getting closer as Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit’s brows furrowed. Nine King-Ranked formidable martial artists were present; once they were trapped, the consequences would be dire.
“There are restrictions above!”
Jiang Yi looked above. The two cliffs on each side of the gorge were too high; there definitely were restrictions above. The cliffs on both sides were extremely sturdy, and the two did not have a choice but to grit their teeth and continue charging forward.
“Why is this gorge so long?”
After traveling for yet another few hundred kilometers, this gorge was still not reaching its end. Instead, it was getting narrower. The air-splitting noises beyond grew even closer as the duo could vaguely make out a few figures charging toward them.
Pong-pong!
Shooting stars suddenly were sent forth from the pursuers. Although they weren’t that powerful, they already caused the spatial zone to shake violently. Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit’s bodies that were in concealment were instantly shaken as they materialized. A laughing voice then cried out, “Hahaha! Jiang Yi, I heard that you are the Earth Domain number-one talent. I am Dao Feng; nice to meet you.”
Jiang Yi did not reply. He kept Poison Spirit into his spatial divine item as he started to send out Sword Emanations Race beings continuously as he circulated his Power of Heaven and Earth and continued heading forward frantically.
As long as he made it out of the gorge—using his Art of Concealment, he would even be able to avoid a ten-fold increase in the number of pursuers.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The Sword Emanations Race beings transformed into streaks of shooting stars as they floated backward. As Jiang Yi kept on pressing forward and releasing Sword Emanations Race beings, the gorge grew even narrower; the Sword Emanations Race beings clogged the way immediately. If his pursuers wanted to get to him, they could only do so by blasting a path through the Sword Emanations Race beings.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A snow-white battle saber appeared in Dao Feng’s hands as he furiously hacked forward with it. A huge wave like a rainbow lit up and shot forward as the Sword Emanations Race beings ahead were wiped clean, and a passageway was created. This one strike had at least slaughtered a few thousand Sword Emanations Race beings and cleared a tunnel for them to enter.
Swish!
Dao Feng was unstoppable as he completely ignored the Sword Emanations Race beings and rushed forward, with everyone behind following closely. The Sword Emanations Race beings on both sides started to hack furiously at Dao Feng. However, his body lit up with white light as he didn’t even move his body the slightest; however, his speed was indeed slowed by a sliver.
Is this a Dao Heaven Spiritual Treasure or a Primordial Spiritual Treasure? Which prestigious clan is this Dao Feng from? He is not only King-Ranked but also has so many cardinal treasures?
Jiang Yi saw this scene as he exclaimed internally. Dao Feng’s weapon and battle armor were extremely powerful; what could Jiang Yi do now? He could only desperately send out more Sword Emanations Race beings; even if he had to use up all the seven to eight million Sword Emanations Race beings within the Wintry Pearl, he was willing to do so.
The deeper into the gorge they went, the longer it extended for. Although Dao Feng was ferocious—as the gorge grew even narrower, every single space within it was filled with Sword Emanations Race beings. If they wanted to breakthrough and hunt for Jiang Yi, they could only destroy the Sword Emanations Race beings. Every time they attacked, their speed had to be reduced. Hence, both parties’ speeds were more or less evened out. If Jiang Yi managed to escape from the gorge, he still had a chance at survival.
“Jiang Yi, if you are a man, stop running!”
Dao Feng chased for a while longer and saw that he still could not get close to Jiang Yi and cried out. “How about this? I will ask the rest to retreat, and we can fight it out one-on-one? Not only have you killed men from the Heaven Domain, but you even sullied my friends’ face and reputation. I naturally have to seek redress for these matters. As long as you can withstand one blow from me, I will consider this matter settled.”
Jiang Yi laughed out in mockery as he turned and said, “Young Master Dao Feng, you can actually say something so childish? Do you think I am three-years-old? You have a bunch of people with you, including nine King-Ranked martial artists. You possess so many treasures on you and have a King-Ranked martial artist’s battle strength. All of you are chasing one of me; is this the act of a true man? I am not the Earth Domain number-one genius; I am but a small figure from the Mortal Domain and had not even ascended for half a year. You are a young master from a Heaven Domain prestigious clan hunting a nobody like me; don’t you find that shameful?”
“Hahaha!”
Dao Feng did not blush the slightest. Instead, he laughed out loud and said, “You haven’t even ascended for half a year; then, you are indeed a talent. Stop playing words with me. You killed a King-Ranked formidable martial artist and so many men from the various clans; we will not let you off. I had proposed something to give you a chance. Rest assured that I, Dao Feng, am a man of my word. What do you say?”
“I’ll think about it!”
Jiang Yi replied abruptly as he didn’t bother turning his head anymore and continued moving forward. This Young Master Dao Feng was rather devious. A proposal and a man of his word? His battle saber was at least a Dao Heaven Spiritual Treasure; it potentially was a Primordial Spiritual Treasure. Only a fool would receive one blow from him. Furthermore, what if he really kept to his word but the people around him didn’t? Jiang Yi was never a person to let someone else control his life.
As he continued forward, he had let out more than three million Sword Emanations Race beings already. However, the end was not yet in sight. Jiang Yi had a premonition; how could this gorge be so long? It was getting so narrow now. It originally had been ten thousand feet wide; now, it was a few hundred feet wide only. It was also possible that the end of this gorge was not an exit but something dangerous.
“Sh*t…”
What he thought about really came true. After traveling for another one hundred and fifty kilometers, Jiang Yi finally saw the end to the gorge. What astonished him was… the end of the gorge wasn’t an exit; it was actually a cliff. The cliff wasn’t black and murky but was shining constantly. Every few seconds, a streak of gold light would fly from the skies toward it.
This golden light was familiar to Jiang Yi. It was the spatial zone turbulence!
Jiang Yi had seen many such turbulences before; he had encountered them many times onboard the Chaos Divine Boat. Although Chaos Divine Boats were very powerful, once they were hit by such turbulences—even they would split apart.
If it was Jiang Yi a while back, he might have taken a gamble and entered; he had his jade-white armor then. However, with the jade-white armor destroyed by the mummy, Jiang Yi knew that he would definitely die if he flew into that cliff.
Swish!
He controlled two Sword Emanations Race beings to fly forward. After they reached the cliff, they were immediately caught by the spatial zone turbulence as the Sword Emanations Race beings’ bodies immediately were minced into a fine powder. Jiang Yi’s mouth twitched when he saw that.
“Hahaha!”
Dao Feng was but tens of thousands of feet away. He halted at this moment as he looked at Jiang Yi through the thousands of Sword Emanations Race beings. He smirked and said, “Continue fleeing; aren’t you very good at that? Why have you stopped? Jiang Yi, I will give you a chance now. If you can receive one blow from me, I will wipe the slate clean. How about that?”
“One blow?”
Jiang Yi’s brows rose as he paused for a moment. He suddenly closed his eyes as he said, “Give me five minutes to consider; just five minutes!”
“Alright!”
Dao Feng saw that the Sword Emanations Race beings were no longer attacking as he shrugged and agreed. He enjoyed playing cat and mouse like this. Since Jiang Yi had nowhere to flee anymore, he actually wanted to see what Jiang Yi would do in five minutes.
Time passed swiftly as Jiang Yi opened his eyes on time. He looked at Dao Feng in the distance as he smiled and said, “Young Master Dao Feng, I am sorry; your character is not trustworthy enough! Even if I die, I do not wish to die under your blade.”
Swish!
Jiang Yi’s hand lit up as he furiously sent a ball of six-colored burning flames forward as he speedily turned and jumped down the cliff. The spatial zone turbulence caught him swiftly as Jiang Yi was minced and turned into blood mist at a frightening speed.
