Jiang Yi had actually seen something similar to this before. When he had won the Kingdom War on the Stellarsky Continent and received the Fire Dragon Sword, the same transformation had taken place!
At that time, he had wanted to refine the Fire Dragon Sword; he did not imagine that the Fire Dragon Sword and the Fire Spirit Pearl would fuse together and would immediately be usable without him having to do anything. Furthermore, the formulation for the third stage of the Nameless Divine Art had also appeared. One more dragon pattern also appeared on the Fire Dragon Sword.
Right now!
There was yet another additional dragon pattern on the sword. Two faint dragon patterns were originally on the four feet long sword; now, there were three. For two completely unrelated matters to suddenly be linked together, how could Jiang Yi not be astonished?
“The Mystic Divine Saber was gobbled up by the Fire Dragon Sword? How is that possible? The Fire Dragon Sword is only a transcending saint artifact, right? It wasn’t even a pseudo-divine artifact, and yet it could swallow an actual divine artifact?”
Jiang Yi felt as if he was hearing a fantasy story; this matter was too strange and was even a little ridiculous. If the Mystic Divine Saber had swallowed the Fire Dragon Sword, that would have been quite normal. Jiang Yi stared at the sword that emitted an aura even stronger than that of the Mystic Divine Saber and was stunned. His body was slightly shaking.
If this whole thing was not an illusion, there was only one explanation: the Fire Dragon Sword’s origins were extraordinary; it was even stronger than the Mystic Divine Saber!
However…
The Fire Dragon Sword was only a low-grade weapon on the Stellarsky Continent. This type of weapon was everywhere on the East Imperial Continent. If it was a cardinal treasure, how would it have found its way to the Stellarsky Continent?
However, the Fire Spirit Pearl had been stored in the Heaven Monarch of Ten Thousand Dragons’ Tomb of Heaven Monarch for several tens of thousands of years and could actually fuse with the Fire Dragon Sword. The Fire Spirit Pearl was also a fire evasion divine artifact, having prevented any sort of flames from ever hurting Jiang Yi. This could prove the Fire Dragon Sword’s uniqueness.
There were too many things that didn’t make sense. Jiang Yi looked at the Fire Dragon Sword and at the darkening sky. He suddenly felt as if there was an unseen hand controlling his life; this made him feel very uncomfortable.
“I’m not going to care so much! Let me refine the Mystic Divine Palace first. Ruobing is still waiting in that central hall. Furthermore, the Glazed Pagoda is also in the hands of either Zhan Tianlei or Jian Wuying. I’ll get my hands on that first before anything else.”
Jiang Yi massaged his face and forced himself not to think too much; too many weird things had happened to him. He was already becoming slightly numb to them. He walked forward for two steps and grabbed the Fire Dragon Sword floating in mid-air, wanting to test its powers.
In the end—!
When he was about to grasp hold of the Fire Dragon Sword, a huge aura was released from the Fire Dragon Sword; his hand was actually repelled!
“What’s going on?”
Jiang Yi opened his eyes. He evidently had a mental connection with the Fire Dragon Sword as it had been refined by him completely; why was it rejecting him now? This was possible?
In a fit of rage, Jiang Yi used both hands and tried to hold on tightly to the Fire Dragon Sword.
Buzz!
The Fire Dragon Sword flashed, and three fire dragons surfaced from the sword as it started to tremble and released a sound. It seemed as if the Fire Dragon Sword had gained numinosity and did not want to be held by Jiang Yi, trying its best to resist Jiang Yi!
“Are you trying to rebel?”
Jiang Yi’s eyebrows rose as he used both hands and held on for his dear life onto the Fire Dragon Sword, trying to subdue it. However, the more he tried to force it, the more vigorously the Fire Dragon Sword tried to resist. After struggling for five minutes, the Fire Dragon Sword was still as obstinate.
“Jiang Yi, let it be for now. Based on your current strength, it is not possible for you to subdue this sword. This sword has gained numinosity. If you do not have a certain amount of strength, it would not bend to your will.”
A voice rang out. Jiang Yi turned his head and realized that Yi Chan had already awakened and was just curiously sizing up the Fire Dragon Sword. Yi Chan took a few glances and asked with curiosity, “Jiang Yi, this should be a divine artifact. Its aura is too terrifying. However, didn’t the Mystic Thearch have a Mystic Divine Saber and Mystic Divine Armor? Why has it changed into a sword?”
“Huh!”
Jiang Yi was momentarily stunned and didn’t know how to reply to Yi Chan. If he told Yi Chan everything, wouldn’t Yi Chan see him as a monster?
He smiled, embarrassed, and didn’t explain as his ring lit up, and he kept the divine artifact inside. Jiang Yi then said, “There are urgent things to attend to now. I will explain to you next time. I have to refine the Mystic Divine Palace first. Ruobing is still below, and I don’t know if she is in any danger.”
“Mystic Divine Palace!”
Yi Chan’s eyes lit up. She looked slightly envious as she said, “Congratulations to you, Jiang Yi. You have become the successor to the Mystic Thearch. However, it is indeed true that throughout the entire Stellarsky Domain, there seems to be only you that are qualified to take over the Mystic Thearch.”
Jiang Yi saw Yi Chan’s extremely beautiful face and smiled lightly, not saying much. He hurriedly entered the thatched house. The door was open, and there wasn’t much else inside it. There was only an old, redwood bed with a square table at the side and a chair. Besides these, there was no other furniture or accessories.
“Mystic Divine Armor! Jade talisman!”
Jiang Yi looked on the table and saw the black domineering battle armor and a jade talisman, his eyes lighting up. Jiang Yi took the jade talisman warm and cool in his hand. There was an intricately carved word “Mystic” on it as well as many exquisite patterns; one look and anyone would know that this was something very special.
“Could I refine this battle armor?”
Jiang Yi held on to the battle armor, and it suddenly glowed brightly. It was actually trembling like the Fire Dragon Sword, silently resisting him. Jiang Yi took a few glances and helplessly put the battle armor inside his ring, softly chiding, “Bastard. Both the weapon and battle armor are now intelligent and are even looking down on me. Hmph!”
Buzz!
Jiang Yi injected some of his essence force, and the jade talisman didn’t resist him. It lit up with a feeble glow, and Jiang Yi’s spirits were immediately lifted. If he could refine the jade talisman, he could then refine the Mystic Divine Palace. If he couldn’t refine it, he wouldn’t even know how to get out of this place.
“Refine.”
Jiang Yi sat cross-legged on the floor and did not bother about Yi Chan. If he didn’t refine immediately after obtaining such a treasure, he was definitely a fool. This was also something that Jiang Yi would never give to anyone or let anyone take; although he was in Yi Chan’s debt, he would definitely not allow her to take it either.
He had inherited the Mystic Divine Palace; that was the Mystic Thearch’s choice. Even giving it to someone—even if it was snatched away—would in itself be a huge crime. Jiang Yi had promised the Mystic Thearch that if any of the three items were stolen or snatched away, he would kill himself in return.
Buzz!
At the same moment Jiang Yi started to refine the Mystic Divine Palace and the jade talisman, the whole Mystic Divine Palace shook. Following that, everyone in the Mystic Divine Palace felt their soul spirits trembling. Subsequently, streak after streak of white light shone and besides Yi Chan, Yin Ruobing, Zhan Tianlei, and Jian Wuying, everyone else in the Mystic Divine Palace was teleported outside.
“Ah?”
Ling Qijian, Tu Long, Ye Ying, Chen Chen, Mo Di, Zhan Tianwu, and company realized that the white light had flashed; and they were already at the peak of Mystic Divine Mountain. In front of them, there was a huge palace shining in mid-air. For a moment, all of their faces revealed a pained and agonizing look.
The Glazed Pagoda had been obtained already. Now that the Mystic Divine Palace had transformed and that they had been teleported out, there was no need to say anything—the Mystic Divine Palace treasure hunt had ended. The number one cardinal treasure in the world had been taken.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At the same time, the entire Mystic Divine Palace started trembling violently. The fog that covered half of the mountain also dissipated silently. The glow on the Road of Azure Clouds also dimmed as the divine senses of everyone at the foot of the mountain easily floated upwards; they were all locked on the Mystic Divine Palace at the peak of the mountain.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Countless shadows shot forth from inside the Battle Thearch City. Those men’s auras were already at the limit; some of them were so incredibly strong that they had just shot out of the Battle Thearch City, and everyone at the foot of Mystic Divine Mountain could already feel suffocated.
The Battle Thearch, North Thearch, Evil Thearch, Xuan Thearch, Yin Thearch, Sword Thearch, Beast Thearch, and Sonar Thearch had all made their moves!
