There was a giant sea region that was in between the East Imperial Continent and Gods Bestow Tribe. The people of the East Imperial Continent called this sea region the Sin Sea. It meant that this place was approaching Sin Island; hence, it was the sea region of sins.
Right now, at the north of Sin Sea, there was sudden spatial fluctuation as a golden-robed man with soaring demonic aura flew out from a spatial crack. The man had a powerful aura presence was minimally at the peak of the Demon Thearch Realm. His appearance had scared off all the nearby sea demons, causing them to scuttle in all directions.
Swish!
The man had two golden horns on his head and looked obviously like a Demon Thearch. His pair of icy cold eyes scanned around before he fixed a direction and flew towards the northwest direction.
“Chu-chu!”
There was a small island in the northwest direction, and two red eagles circled above the island. When the golden-robed man approached, the two red eagles flew off with fear and into the high altitudes, causing a whirlwind.
Swish!
The golden-robed man flew into the island and scouted around to make sure there were no powerful demonic beasts. He then sat cross-legged while his ring flashed as he took out an elixir and closed his eyes before entering meditation.
“This place shouldn’t be far away from the East Imperial Continent, right?”
Half a day later, the golden robed man opened his eyes again and scouted the surroundings one more time before he let out a long breath. After sitting for a moment, he ripped the void and entered it, vanishing from the island.
The golden-robed man was using the Mirage Divine Ability. It was Jiang Yi in disguise, and he had left Gods Bestow Tribe for over ten days. With safety as a priority, he didn’t leave Gods Bestow City using the Heaven Evasion. Instead, he rode a Heaven Fate Ship into Gods Bestow Sea and alighted halfway through the journey and used the Heaven Evasion to leave Gods Bestow Tribe.
Afterward, he didn’t recklessly use the Heaven Evasion to travel west. He took a big detour and used the Heaven Evasion to travel north of the Sin Sea. He was preparing to enter the East Imperial Continent from the northwest as there were plenty of human race continents in the northwest, making it less suspicious when he entered.
Of course, the most important point was that the Buddha Thearch City was in the northwest of the continent.
No one would be able to climb up Mt. Mystic Divine for five years due to Ao Lu’s setup while Jiang Yi was still completely unclear of Su Ruoxue and Ji Tingyu’s situation. Yi Piaopiao and Yu Wen had also yet to be investigated while extinguishing the Martial Arts Hall with Jiang Yi’s current strength was simply a pipe dream. Hence, his only option was to head over to the Buddha Thearch City, look for Purgatory Ruin, and then think of a method to obtain the Fire-Snake Orchid to treat Qianqian first.
Buzz!
Jiang Yi constantly used the Heaven Evasion and would travel across one billion miles every time. Jiang Yi wasn’t far away from the East Imperial Continent, and he had stopped after using the Heaven Evasion three times as he no longer dared to recklessly use the Heaven Evasion.
The Nine Thearchs Clans and some major clans in the East Imperial Continent must have a complete set of information on him. If Jiang Yi didn’t want to expose his identity immediately when he entered the East Imperial Continent, he had to travel with a low profile. Otherwise, if he was to execute the Heaven Evasion and happened to appear above a city in the continent, he would be immediately exposed.
Heaven Evasion, Fire Cloud Armor, Fire Dragon Sword, Thunder Fire, Fury of Thunder, Divine Sound Heaven Skill, Sky-Turning Cauldron, Massacre Intent.
After approaching the East Imperial Continent, he could no longer use the abilities and treasures that were known to the outside people. Once he used them, he would be immediately investigated; and if there was a powerful enemy in pursuit, he would have to release the powerful attacks and use the Heaven Evasion to escape. Once that happened, his identity would be immediately exposed; and the Xie, Wu, Tu, and Jian Clans would immediately mobilize their experts and think of all ways to kill him.
Hence, before he departed, he had already decided that he would never use the abilities and treasures he had unless it was a crisis of absolute death. He wouldn’t start a fight as much as possible and would maintain a low profile until he sneaked into the Buddha Thearch Palace.
Jiang Yi would stop after flying over ten thousand miles, and he would release his Divine Perception to scout swiftly. This place was already in the shallow sea region, and there shouldn’t be any powerful demonic beasts. If he didn’t check clearly and carelessly advanced, he might just encounter humans from the East Imperial Continent.
Right now, he was no longer of the demon race form as he had turned into a grim-looking middle-aged man. Outsiders would be able to sense that he was a low-stage Heaven Monarch, and with such strength, it wouldn’t attract any attention while regular people would casually provoke him.
“There are people over there!”
After flying for one day and one night, Jiang Yi finally discovered humans. It wasn’t a single person, but a Heaven Fate Ship. That Heaven Fate Ship was flying over from the northeast and at high speed. From the direction they were flying in, they were also headed for the East Imperial Continent.
“En… follow them!”
If there was a Heaven Fate Ship, there would naturally be a merchant association. A merchant association’s foothold would definitely be by the seaside of the East Imperial Continent. Jiang Yi was planning to follow this Heaven Fate Ship and head towards the foothold. He was going to first find out the nearby situation as he had nothing apart from a map of the East Imperial Continent.
The Heaven Fate Ship was a small model, and its speed was similar to his. Jiang Yi didn’t dare to approach the Heaven Fate Ship as there would normally be an expert overseeing it. Once he got near it, he might be attacked or be judged as a spy.
He hung ten thousand miles before the Heaven Fate Ship, and after a while, he would release the Divine Perception to check and make sure he wouldn’t lose their tracks. He didn’t know where exactly he was or how long it would take to reach the East Imperial Continent. He had no choice but to follow the Heaven Fate Ship blindly.
Three days!
Jiang Yi was a little gloomy as he had yet to arrive at the East Imperial Continent after flying for three days. If he had known this, he would have executed a short-range Heaven Evasion. There was another small island that appeared ahead, and Jiang Yi flew over to sit cross-legged while he released his Divine Perception quickly. He was preparing to scout to as far as he could to see if he could find the territory of the East Imperial Continent.
“Eh? There are bandits?”
When his Divine Perception scanned across the Heaven Fate Ship which was ten thousand miles ahead, he noticed there was a battle. There were close to a thousand bandits, and the leader was a high-stage Heaven Monarch. It was obviously a small scale bandit legion.
However, the guards on the Heaven Fate Ship couldn’t resist against them as there were only over six hundred martial artists that flew out from the Heaven Fate Ship. There wasn’t a single high-stage Heaven Monarch, and more than a hundred of them were actually Vajra Realm martial artists.
“What is this situation? Is this a merchant association’s Heaven Fate Ship? Why isn’t there any expert overseeing it?” Jiang Yi was silently bewildered. Generally, there would definitely be a peak-stage Heaven Monarch overseeing the Heaven Fate Ship.
After he checked with his Divine Perception, he immediately understood when he noticed that apart from the 600 over Heaven Monarchs on the Heaven Fate Ship, there were eight women and two children.
This Heaven Fate Ship was obviously not from a merchant association and should be a clan’s Heaven Fate Ship.
Jiang Yi’s Divine Perception had even found out that the two children were a boy and a girl, and their ages were around three years old. They were currently wailing loudly, and those women were also frightened stiff and were trembling. Jiang Yi’s eyes flashed with a trace of anger as he cursed silently. “They even brought out such young children? Has this clan gone mad?”
It was normal for martial artists to slaughter one another, and the East Imperial Continent had a fierce reputation. Those who dared to venture onto the continent must have the resolution for death. Bringing women and children on such risks, what was going on? The children were innocent, and these bandits weren’t going to bother if they were children or not.
Bang, Bang, Bang!
This bandit legion was a small one, but the martial artists on this Heaven Fate Ship were too weak. In just a few blinks of the eyes, half of the six hundred martial artists were killed; and the rest of the people had expressions of despair. However, they were still fighting for their lives.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Streams of light struck onto the Heaven Fate Ship’s barrier. This Heaven Fate Ship was the smallest model, and the barrier was naturally weak. Jiang Yi’s Divine Perception could casually scout inside and see everything clearly.
Soon enough, the barrier on the Heaven Fate Ship was turning dim and was about to rupture. Those women were in complete despair while a young married woman had taken out a dagger and pressing it against her neck as she was prepared to kill herself to prevent falling into the hands of the bandits. The two children were truly frightened as their big eyes were filled with fear and helplessness.
“Sigh…”
Jiang Yi originally wanted to stay out of it, but his heart softened when he saw those two children. They had just arrived in this world recently, and if they were to die like this, it would truly be unfair to them.
Buzz!
Jiang Yi’s aura presence jolted and was suddenly as vast as the mountain. He turned into a ray of rainbow as he flew forward rapidly.
