Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

“There’s an island there!”

Jiang Yi spotted a black dot not far away and cried out immediately. Jiang Xiaonu usually moved as fast as lightning, but at that moment, she was moving no faster than a tier-two demonic beast. Only five kilometers were to travel, and yet she took several minutes to get to the island. What’s more, they nearly fell back into the sea halfway through.

“It’s just a reef…”

Jiang Xiaonu finally arrived at the ‘island’, but before Jiang Yi could thank her, she fell toward the ground. The two of them landed hard on a rock. The ‘island’ was more accurately called a huge reef. At most, ten or so people would be able to stand atop it.

Jiang Yi was satisfied enough that they had found a place to rest. Jiang Xiaonu sat down on the rock panting, without any regard for her image. Her ample chest kept rising and falling as sweat dripped down her face. One could only imagine how much pressure she had to endure just to carry Jiang Yi to this reef.

Jiang Yi was panting as well. He looked around and realized that there were two more black dots in the east. Apart from that, there were no other black dots around. His head was beginning to hurt, and he frowned. If not for Jiang Xiaonu, this place would be hard to get around. Even with Jiang Xiaonu—if there had not been islands and reefs or if there was a huge distance between them, they would be in trouble as well.

It was incredibly difficult for one to accumulate essence force. If one did not have secret cultivation rooms that would speed up the process, they would find it even more difficult. Jiang Yi had spent so long training up and accumulating essence force in order to become a Demigod. If he had remained in the sea for even an hour, he would go back to a peak-stage Heaven Monarch. Then, his battle powers would be affected. He would have to then spend a few more months just to train up again.

Buzz!

The Mystic Divine Palace appeared. He teleported the Yin Emperor, Buddha Emperor, Xuan Emperor, Night Emperor, Yin Ruobing, Yi Chan, and Mei Ru back out of the palace. Mei Ru had updated everyone on the situation after entering the Mystic Divine Palace. After they emerged from the palace, they looked around. The Night Emperor personally went down into the sea to test it and immediately climbed up. He looked like he had just seen a ghost.

“This Mystic realm is really the scariest place in all of Stellarsky Domain. This sea itself is so strange. There must be some kind of powerful being in there somewhere.”

The Buddha Emperor looked around as well and tried to activate an attack. Somberly, he said, “Let’s try to look for a bigger island before we start thinking of solutions. Space here is limited, and our attacking power will become weak. Jiang Yi, be careful.”

Buzz!

The Yin Emperor retrieved a Heaven Fate Ship and tried to fly it but found that the Heaven Fate Ship was pinned down into the sea. The energy from the protective layer around the Heaven Fate Ship was being absorbed by the sea rapidly. At last, after the energy had all been consumed, the Heaven Fate Ship was crushed. It turned into wooden planks in the sea.

Jiang Xiaonu could only carry one person with her. The others had to remain in the Mystic Divine Palace. They could not do anything except let Jiang Yi find a bigger island to accommodate all of them. The reef was too small. If a beast came up to attack them, they would have nowhere to hide. Yet, Jiang Yi had to wait for Jiang Xiaonu to rest up first before they took off once again.

He entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man and looked in the surroundings for any weird happenings. He did not want any surprise attacks from monsters. The Buddha Emperor did say that there seemed to be something powerful in the sea. Jiang Yi could not just sit back and do nothing.

The black dot in front of them was also a reef, and it was about thirty-five kilometers away. The flight there was quite peaceful. Jiang Xiaonu was tough. The moment they arrived at the reef, Jiang Yi’s eyes lit up. There were seven or eight more black dots around them not far away. At least they were not short of land to stand on.

After resting for a while more, they set off once again.

Just like that, Jiang Yi and Jiang Xiaonu flew for a day. In the strange space, the sky was always lit. The night never seemed to fall. Jiang Yi and Jiang Xiaonu flew across thousands of kilometers of sea, and yet they still could not see where the region ended. There were no continents and no islands. The only thing they could give thanks for was that there were a ton of reefs.

“Xiaonu, rest for four hours! You should take a nap.”

Jiang Yi saw that Jiang Xiaonu was about to collapse from exhaustion. His heart hurt for her so he wrapped her in his arms. Immediately, Jiang Xiaonu fell asleep. No matter whether they were in a strange space or the depths of hell, she would always be able to fall asleep in Jiang Yi’s arms.

Jiang Yi, on the other hand, did not sleep. He did not feel tired. Instead, he felt the need to remain vigilant. At first, he intended to rest for four hours. However, after four hours passed, he did not have the heart to wake Jiang Xiaonu up. Thus, he allowed her to carry on sleeping.

“Xiaonu, something’s happening!”

More than six hours later, Jiang Yi suddenly cried out. Xiaonu immediately opened her eyes and looked around with killing intent. The sea region in front of them was stirring. Jiang Yi was already on his feet. The Fire Dragon Sword lit up in his hand, and the Mystic Divine Armor wrapped around his body. He was prepared.

Bang!

The seawater began to crash, and a white figure shot out from inside it. Both Jiang Yi and Jiang Xiaonu looked astonished.

That was because the white figure was a monster, and this monster’s body was formed with pieces of white rocks. Even its limbs were made up of little pieces of white rocks. However, its eyes looked just as bright as regular demons.

The monster’s body was not huge, only its head was as big as an elephant’s. It looked like a Dragon Horse, and it moved slowly. Of course, at that point, it was moving faster than Jiang Xiaonu and Jiang Yi. It opened its huge mouth to expose two rows of sharp stone-like teeth, and it roared at both of them. Immediately, it charged toward Jiang Yi like a shadow.

“Divinity Slayer!”

Jiang Yi congealed his Divinity Slayer, causing the clouds and winds to gather around. This time, however, there was no lightning. Instead, the white fog from the sea charged toward him. Very quickly, three Fire Dragons formed. They looked much smaller than they used to look outside the strange space. They felt much less frightening as well, and even their speed was one-tenth of what it used to be.

Nevertheless, the speed at which the Fire Dragons were moving was a sight to behold. They were much faster than the stone-like monster as they charged right toward it.

Bang, bang, bang!

The stone monster’s body broke into several small pieces. All around, the space seemed to stir. Yet, it did not tear open. Something that shocked both Jiang Yi and Jiang Xiaonu happened: the small stones from the monster’s body fell into the sea and gathered together once again. With a flash of white light, the stone monster’s body reformed. Its aura felt as powerful as before. It was almost as if it had not even been injured.

The Divinity Slayer… a nine-star dao pattern and one of the strongest attacks of the Mystic Thearch!

It could easily kill an eight-star formidable martial artist and kill a powerful demon sovereign that spanned more than thirty meters in length. Yet, it could not even kill a stone monster that was only as big as an elephant? This was really the biggest joke in the world.

Roar! Roar!

The small stone monster charged toward Jiang Yi, roaring ferociously. Yet, it did not dare to get too close to Jiang Yi again. It turned back and crashed into the sea, disappearing from their sight.

“Get lost!”

Jiang Yi kept his Fire Dragon Sword and shouted in a low voice. The Buddha Emperor was right. This strange space’s sea region was filled with monsters. He did not manage to kill this stone monster. For all he knew, there would be even stronger ones that would come for them later. He was not safe on this reef. They might very well be trapped here with no way to escape.

Swish!

Jiang Xiaonu knew that they were in a dangerous situation as well. She brought Jiang Yi up into the air and got to the next reef as quickly as she could.

However—

In just an hour, the two of them traveled tens of kilometers. Yet, the sea began to stir once again. One by one, small stone monsters began to emerge from the sea. There were at least a few hundred of them now.

“Xiaonu, quick, go to that reef! I’ll fight them.”

Jiang Yi shouted out at once. The Fire Dragon Sword was already dancing in the air. This time, he did not use the Divinity Slayer. Instead, he summoned tens of thousands of fire dragons. Since he could not kill these stone monsters, he could only think of ways to stop them from getting any closer.
