Chapter 1612: Pierce the Heavens Before Deciding What to Do Next

Young Master Liang’s face became a mixture of white and green. Without any hesitation, he shouted in anger, “Everyone, please work with me to slaughter Jiang Yi! There are so many of us; will we not be able to kill a piece of trash from the Earth Domain? How would we be able to face people in the Heaven Domain then?”

“Young Master…”

Uncle Qiang wanted to persuade Young Master Liang against it, but how could he embarrass Young Master Liang in front of so many people?

Many young masters and young mistresses, who heard these words, became angered as well. Jiang Yi was the most talented man in the Earth Domain, but they were prestigious young masters and young mistresses of the Heaven Domain. Each of them had a King-Ranked martial artist guarding them. Among these six young masters and two young mistresses, three of them were King-Ranked martial artists as well. In total, there were eleven King-Ranked martial artists among them. Would they not be able to kill a mere Jiang Yi?

“Do it!”

A mysteriously-dressed young master—in multi-colored robes and with his chest half-exposed—shouted. Behind him, more than a thousand people began to charge at Jiang Yi. Since one of the young masters had made his move, the other people were too ashamed to stand by and do nothing. At that moment, all the young masters and young mistresses gave instructions for their subordinates to take action.

“I have no feud with any of you. In order to steal one Demon-Killing Pearl, all of you are willing to kill me and silence me. I already showed you mercy earlier. Now, I am warning you again: move back, or you bear the consequences on your own.”

Jiang Yi’s Wintry Pearl kept flashing as he hollered, producing a seemingly endless supply of Sword Emanations Race beings. He had already shown Uncle Qiang mercy earlier, or Young Master Liang’s two thousand subordinates would have been burned alive. Uncle Qiang would probably have suffered the same outcome.

However, his words were not worth much weight. Would the young masters and young mistresses have listened to him?

To the young masters and young mistresses, the most talented person in the Earth Domain was still equivalent to dog feces. They had no qualms about killing him. Would the martial artists of the Earth Domain dare to look for trouble in the Heaven Domain? Even if they did, would they be capable of fighting them off?

There were now a million Sword Emanations Race beings floating in midair. Jiang Yi continued to summon even more of them. The air began to fill with Sword Emanations Race beings which formed multiple walls around Jiang Yi. In every direction, formidable martial artists were beginning to attack him. As Jiang Yi watched the Sword Emanations Race beings being slaughtered group by group, he became thoroughly enraged. His zither appeared in his hands, and he began to activate the Divine Sound Laws.

The moment he did that, the situation was flipped around.

The martial artists—who had been near the Sword Emanations Race beings and prepared to battle—were affected by the sound in varying degrees. The moment they became affected, they were struck and thrown down onto the island. At last, a group of Sword Emanations Race beings would surround them and kill them!

“Why is this Divine Sound Law so powerful?”

The Heaven Domain’s young masters and young mistresses had a wide bank of knowledge. At that moment, however, all of their expressions changed. According to logic—even if Jiang Yi realized a powerful divine sound law, his skill levels would dictate that he would not be this powerful.

“This divine sound law is different from other ordinary ones. It contains a powerful baneful aura!”

One of the King-Ranked listened closely and explained. He turned to the dense group of Sword Emanations Race beings surrounding Jiang Yi and nodded. “He indeed deserves to be named the most talented person in the Earth Domain. These puppets and the divine sound law alone could make him the most powerful person aside from King-Ranked martial artists.”

Young Master Liang saw that the other King-Ranked martial artists were still standing by watching. Far away, formidable martial artists from various clans were getting injured and dying at a frightening rate. Anxiously and urgently, he shouted, “Uncle Qiang, take a few other King-Ranked martial artists with you and deal with him! Can Jiang Yi win against a group of King-Ranked martial artists?”

Young Master Gu and a couple of other people exchanged a meaningful look, and each turned to the King-Ranked martial artists protecting them, begging them to take action. Uncle Qiang and the others sighed in frustration. Since the situation had already deteriorated to such a stage, they could no longer just stand by and watch. Otherwise, Jiang Yi would kill all the formidable martial artists from their respective clans.

Eight King-Ranked martial artists discussed the situation, and five of them flew out. They were prepared to attack Jiang Yi together. Although Uncle Qiang had been scared away by Jiang Yi’s Prairie Flames earlier, he did not think that five King-Ranked martial artists would not be able to kill Jiang Yi.

“Kill!”

The five of them flew towards Jiang Yi like flood dragons. In front of them, the group of Sword Emanations Race beings had already grown to more than a million. However, they proved to be no threat to the King-Ranked martial artists. They easily threw a couple of attacks which caused the Sword Emanations Race beings to fly backward. The five of them rushed towards Jiang Yi, their attacks at the ready. They resembled five blades cutting through an army of a thousand men and ten thousand horses and straight towards the commander!

Jiang Yi remained where he was, seated cross-legged in midair. He could not move even if he wanted to. The five of their auras were locked in on him, and their speed was much faster than his. Jiang Yi could not run for sure.

He did not summon Qi Qingchen out. Qi Qingchen had just become a King-Ranked martial artist; there would be no point asking her to help him in this battle. Instead, they would probably incur many losses. The Poison Spirit, all the more, was not fit to join the battle. He would probably be killed immediately if he faced King-Ranked martial artists in battle.

At that moment, Jiang Yi’s eyes were closed. In the State of the Union of Heaven and Man, he studied the movements around him closely. Then, both his hands plucked the strings of the zither violently. After the five King-Ranked martial artists attacked, he gave new orders to the Sword Emanations Race beings. The Sword Emanations Race beings didn’t hesitate; their attacks became a couple of times more intense. More and more corpses were being added to the vicinity because of this battle.

Since these young masters and young mistresses from the Heaven Domain were so hell-bent on making a fool out of him, what else could Jiang Yi say? If they insisted that only one side could survive, Jiang Yi was not about to stick out his neck for these people for the problem to be resolved.

Hundred thousand feet, fifty thousand feet… ten thousand feet!

“Ha!”

One of the King-Ranked slapped a huge handprint which turned into many beams of light and finally dissipated. These movements and patterns started disappearing as well. Jiang Yi looked at the sky from three kilometers away, halted, and kept silent. Jiang Yi finally stopped the playing of his zither. These King-Ranked released a powerful spatial dao pattern, the Spatial Freeze.

This was quite similar to Spatial Quiescence. The only difference was that Ren Tianfan’s Spatial Quiescence could only stop everything for two seconds. The King-Ranked martial artist’s Spatial Freeze, on the other hand, could cause everything nearby to be frozen for a long time.

“Alright!”

The other King-Ranked martial artists’ eyes lit up. The weapons appeared in their hands, and in a burst of colored light, they shot towards Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi had a Primitive Spiritual Treasure wrapped around his body so they were sure that they would not be able to kill him by attacking from a distance. Thus, everyone was prepared to run up to him and kill him up-close.

Jiang Yi could no longer move now. If a few people were allowed to attack him at the same time—even if he did have multiple lives, his physical body would melt.

“Uh?”

Uncle Qiang’s eyes narrowed, and his body paused. He wanted the group of five to attack Jiang Yi nonstop from afar and torture him to death. He did not think that the four others would take the risk and charge towards Jiang Yi. He had experienced Jiang Yi’s terrifying flames and had remnants of fear in his heart. Although he knew the flames would not burn him to death, he was sure that they would be gravely injured.

“There shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

Uncle Qiang thought that since Jiang Yi had been frozen, and four people were ganging up on Jiang Yi. Even if he did release the flames at the last second, the group would not perish. At the very most, they would get injured. For King-Ranked martial artists—as long as they did not die, even the most severe of injuries could be healed.

Buzz!

The space was frozen, and Jiang Yi could not move his body. However, this did not mean he could not activate his heavenly powers. It did not mean that he could not activate the Power of Heaven and Earth. It did not mean that he could not summon the Prairie Flames.

The Power of Heaven and Earth in his body surged. This time, he did not release the Prairie Flames from his Fire Spirit Pearl. Instead, he summoned the yet untouched six-colored Merged Flames from his ninth star sphere. These six-colored Merged Flames were formed using the Prairie Flames and the original five-colored Merged Flames in his ninth star sphere. They were several times more powerful than the Prairie Flames. These were the same flames that burned Heavenly King You alive.

Jiang Yi did not want to completely sour the relationship between him and the prestigious clans of the Heaven Domain earlier. Now, however, since he was not even sure he would be able to survive, he had nothing else to fear.

He would pierce the heavens before deciding what to do next!

Tsk! Tsk!

Once the four people got within three hundred meters of Jiang Yi, his frozen body suddenly moved. With the boost from his Power of Heaven and Earth, his physical body became more than a hundred times stronger. Now, he was even stronger than Qi Qingchen. The extent of the Spatial Freeze could not hold him back any longer.

“Die!”

From his left hand shot out an endless stream of six-colored Merged Flames. Very quickly, these flames formed balls that looked like burning clouds. He thrust forward several times with his right hand, causing several wind dragons to appear. These wind dragons carried the balls of Merged Flames forward as the four formidable martial artists kept charging towards him.
