Chapter 918 - Do It or Not?
Chapter 918: Do It or Not?
The large hall was also in a rectangle shape, and the end couldn’t be seen. Jiang Yi examined the area and didn’t notice any restriction ripple. It was unknown how did all these people die.
“There are cracks on the skull? But there are no injuries on the body? Could the attack come from above the head?”
When Jiang Yi discovered that all these skeletons had cracks on the skulls, he quickly sensed upwards and noticed the ceiling had stones that had restriction ripples.
The ceiling was also constructed with the black square-shaped stone slabs. Jiang Yi seemed to realize something as he locked onto a giant stone with restriction ripples at the ceiling and threw a weapon at that stone piece.
Chi! Chi!
True enough—!
A stone slab lit up on top, and a white thunderbolt suddenly cleaved down before vanishing in the stone piece at the bottom. The speed was so fast Jiang Yi could only see a white light.
Jiang Yi took out some weapons and threw them on the surrounding stones. He quickly proved something. The stone slabs that had restriction ripples at the top would immediately cleave down with a thunderbolt when the stone piece at the bottom was touched. The thunderbolt’s power should be comparable to the Nine Heavens’ Divine Thunder.
“Let’s go!”
After testing a few more times, Jiang Yi had confidence. He activated the Thunder Fire Divine Shield and the Black Iron Armor appeared on his body while he advanced each step carefully.
Safe!
Jiang Yi nodded and hopped like he was playing Chinese checkers. He closed his eyes and hopped around at the stone pieces ahead, and he would only hop onto the stone pieces without any restriction ripples. After advancing 300 meters, he let out a long breath and silently thought that the restrictions in the Divine Temple were truly horrific. If he didn’t enter the Union of Heaven and Man state, he wouldn’t have known how he had perished.
The restrictions here were very ingenious and only had slight restriction waves. If one didn’t have powerful divine senses, they would never be able to detect it. If they couldn’t detect it and walk around randomly, there was only one conclusion… turning into the skeletons on the floor.
As Jiang Yi advanced, he noticed plenty of treasures on the walls of both sides. There were beast tooth bracelet, demonic beast horn with radiating runic patterns, beast bone with flowing runic patterns, and some strange treasures made of wood.
The only similarity was the restriction ripples on the surface of the treasure. Jiang Yi had been rather tempted many times, but he ultimately didn’t dare to touch them. The restrictions in the Divine Temple were too horrific. The treasures might be good, but it wasn’t worth it to risk one’s life for treasure.
“I am not inside here to search for treasures. I am here to capture Wu Ni and Ji Tingyu!”
Jiang Yi warned himself again as he suppressed his desires and constantly advanced. Finally, one hour later, he arrived at the end of the large hall; and a black stone door appeared at the front.
“Enter!”
He didn’t hesitate and rushed into the stone door again. After the white flash, he immediately entered the Union of Heaven and Man state to check the situation while he remained in place.
“En? There is someone?”
He detected a slight ground vibration at the front, but this hall’s illumination was even darker than the first hall. The people at the front were getting further, and he couldn’t sense them anymore. He wasn’t in a hurry to scout them as he first examined if the surrounding was dangerous.
This large hall was also very dangerous, but the danger was at the giant stone pieces below. Jiang Yi spotted slight fluctuations on the giant stone pieces at the bottom. As per normal, he took out a low-grade weapon and tossed it at the giant stone piece at the front.
Hoo-Hoo!
The giant stone piece instantly lit up, and black flames whizzed out from the giant stone piece. The surrounding temperature drastically increased, and the flame rose up to 12 meters and lasted for a moment before slowly vanishing.
“Flames?”
Jiang Yi grinned as he was the least afraid of flames. Since he didn’t know what grade these flames were, he didn’t dare to recklessly touch it and didn’t dare to collect it. He closed his eyes and advanced by hopping just like before.
As he advanced, Jiang Yi detected the situation at the front. He had sensed a slight ground vibration at the front earlier, and there should be someone advancing. Jiang Yi had to treat this with caution. What if there was a group of people at the front? What if it was She Fei, Jian Wuying, and the others?
He didn’t advance slowly, and after walking a moment, he noticed there were no more vibrations from the front. It was obvious that the people ahead were moving faster than him. Jiang Yi gritted his teeth and increased his advancement speed. Fifteen minutes later, he could sense the ground vibration at the front again.
“There are people as expected. Eight of them? It is Jian Wuying!”
After chasing for a moment, Jiang Yi used the Union of Heaven and Man state to finally sense the people at the front. He was a little suspicious. Wasn’t Jian Wuying walking together with Wu Ni? Didn’t they have dozens of men? Why was there only eight left?
Jian Wuying and his group didn’t detect someone stalking them from behind. There were five individuals constantly tossing weapons, making sure which giant stone pieces were safe and which were dangerous, allowing them to advance quickly. They were also testing the treasures on the walls and used the simplest method to determine if there was any danger.
Jiang Yi didn’t dare to get too near, and he didn’t have a deep grudge against Jian Wuying. If it was She Fei at the front, he would definitely find a way to kill them. Jian Wuying also had eight peak-stage Heaven Monarchs which deterred Jiang Yi from making a reckless move.
“Hehe! Young Master, the restriction on the bone necklace ahead has vanished. We can take it now.”
One of the individuals suddenly yelled out, and Jiang Yi quickly scouted over and happened to see a peak-stage Heaven Monarch flying to the wall and retrieving a bone necklace. Jian Wuying waved his hand with satisfaction and said, “Continue advancing. There isn’t much time left. Let’s see if we can enter the Sky King Palace. It is rumored that the Sky King Palace had ancient artifacts that had condensed dao patterns made by an ancient general. These bone necklaces obviously didn’t have dao patterns condensed on it. The power of it would at best be compared to pseudo-divine artifacts. It isn’t valuable.”
“Let’s go!”
The group of people advanced quickly while Jiang Yi had no choice but to tail from behind and advanced intermittently. Fifteen minutes later, Jian Wuying and the others actually stopped, and there was a deep voice that echoed. “Is it Young Master Ni at the front?”
“Hahaha!”
A voice echoed that caused Jiang Yi’s hair to rise up. “Young Master Wuying, we actually met with you again. How is it? Any gains?”
“Wu Ni!”
Jiang Yi tried his best to suppress the killing intent from his heart, but his body still involuntarily trembled. He hid in a corner and told himself to be calm. By listening to the footsteps from Wu Ni’s side, there were at least twenty people.
“No gains. I obtained a few low-grade ancient artifacts that are useless.” Jian Wuying’s voice echoed. “Let’s move together. It will be safer. Let’s see if the teleportation would split us up again. This damned place…”
Jian Wuying, Wu Ni, and the others were obviously moving together, and their footsteps were gradually getting further. Jiang Yi gritted his teeth and followed with increased speed. He wanted to see if there was an opportunity for him to launch a sneak attack and kill everyone before capturing Wu Ni!
“Ji Tingyu is also around!”
Jiang Yi quickly caught up and discovered a yellow figure beside Wu Ni. They had a total of over thirty individuals, and apart from Ji Tingyu, Wu Ni, and Jian Wuying, the rest of the people was peak-stage Heaven Monarchs.
His footsteps were extremely light, and he didn’t dare to recklessly examine everyone as he was afraid he might alert them.
“Do it or not?”
Jiang Yi’s heart was in a dilemma. If he was to use the Divine Sound Heaven Skill, he reckoned that half the people would be affected; and he would use the soul swords to kill the other half, allowing him to capture Wu Ni and Ji Tingyu successfully. If the opposition had soul spirit defense treasures which could block against his soul sword, he might be attacked by everyone and ultimately die!
“Risk it!”
He quickly made a decision. This place was filled with flames that were to his advantage, and if he didn’t make a move now, he wouldn’t have a chance in the future!
“Eh?”
Jiang Yi was so depressed that he vomited blood… the people at the front actually vanished one after the other. He scouted ahead and noticed the end. Wu Ni, Jian Wuying, and the others had rushed into the large door and vanished from this large hall.
“Chase!”
After everyone rushed into the stone door, Jiang Yi skimmed over like a violent dragon. Since he had already decided to make a move, he wasn’t going to overthink it.
