Chapter 304: Turn Around This Desperate Crisis

One month ago—when Jiang Yi returned to Mt. Spirit Beast College, Jiang Yunhai had imparted the Soul-Devouring Shifting Art to Jiang Yi, which was very easy to comprehend. After Jiang Yi went back to Fairy Peak, he used just a few times to fully comprehend it. He didn’t try it even once because it required the sacrifice of the soul spirit. If it wasn’t in the face of death, why would he even dare to try it?

These three peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts were hiding in the army and lying in ambush. They actually launched a despicable sneak attack, and their first attacks were the most powerful abilities. If Jiang Yi didn’t use the Soul-Devouring Shifting Art, his body would surely have been blasted alive by that lion’s head shadow.

Buzz!

His body had a white flash before he vanished from his original spot. He was actually successful on his first try.

Swish!

That giant lion’s head shadow roared silently as it came, but Jiang Yi had already vanished. This lion’s head shadow surged forward, ultimately crashing into the army which was knocked off their feet by the trembling ground. Furthermore, there were a few commanders in the nearby area.

Boom!

Those few hundred soldiers were obviously a part of the tragedy. It was imaginable how powerful an all-out attack from a peak-stage Soul Travel Realm expert was—it was even complemented by a saint artifact. It would definitely be comparable to a Vajra Realm martial expert’s attack.

When that lion’s head aura blasted over, some martial artists that made contact with it violently exploded. The surface of the ground, which was originally shaking, shook even more intensively after this explosion. Layers of mud were curled up along with those pieces of flesh, spiraling up into the sky like a tornado. The aftermath was a rain of blood that covered the earth.

“Eh?”

There were many astonished gasps as they all widened their eyes while they constantly scanned the spot where Jiang Yi was at. Everyone had this expression as though they had seen a ghost; Jiang Yi actually vanished into thin air?

“Jiang Yi is over there!”

One of the Soul Travel Realm commanders suddenly burst out with a yell, to which everyone responded by turning over to the direction where this commander pointed to. When they saw Jiang Yi was still alive—standing kilometers away from the original spot, there was complete silence in the surroundings. It was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard, and everyone’s expression was filled with bewilderment or disbelief.

Instant shift?

This was an ability that defied natural laws! If Jiang Yi was able to instant shift continuously, who in this army of a million could kill him?

The fact was Jiang Yi was also stunned at this moment.

It wasn’t because of his first successful attempt on using the Soul-Devouring Shifting Art. What made him astonished was that… after he executed this ability, he instinctively used his inner vision to look at his soul spirit and realized that it was shining with golden light. There actually wasn’t any hint of consumption!

How is this possible?!

Jiang Yunhai mentioned that this Soul-Devouring Shifting Art was a double-edged sword and could be used for escaping. Even his mother, Yi Piaopiao—who was so formidable—had to use up some of her soul spirit when using it, but it was comparably lesser than Jiang Yunhai’s usage. This Soul-Devouring Shifting Art’s mnemonic chant stated that this ability required the sacrifice of soul spirit in order to be activated; otherwise, it wouldn’t be named Soul-Devouring Shifting Art.

Could… could the Fire Spirit Pearl be the reason?

When he thought about the golden light glistening in his soul spirit, Jiang Yi suddenly realized something. Every time his soul spirit was under attack, the Fire Spirit Pearl would transfer mysterious energy to protect his soul spirit. He reckoned that when his soul spirit was about to be burned, the Fire Spirit Pearl automatically protected the owner. He… undoubtedly burned up some of his soul spirit. Even if the Fire Spirit Pearl would protect the owner, why wasn’t there any damage to the soul spirit?

What kind of treasure are the Fire Spirit Pearl and Fire Dragon Sword? This definitely isn’t a saint artifact!

Jiang Yi gulped down a mouthful of saliva and recalled about the dreadful Fire Spirit Rock within the Fire Spirit Pearl. The Demon Empress did mention that the rock wasn’t something that belonged to the Stellarsky Continent. There was also the incomplete restriction within the Fire Dragon Sword, which only had a pitiful amount of complete restrictions. After fusing with the Fire Spirit Pearl, the power of the Fire Dragon Sword became comparable to a saint artifact. What if the rest of the restrictions were mended? How much stronger would this Fire Dragon Sword be?

Jiang Yi didn’t dare to imagine and didn’t have the time to do so either. He let out a splendid smile, and his eyes were shining brightly like the sun and the stars. He shouted towards the sky. “Hahaha! Anyone who wants to kill me—shall all die today!”

Buzz!

Jiang Yi’s eyes instantly turned blood red as killing aura gushed out from his body. He didn’t even release the Earth Fire anymore as he constantly cleaved and slashed with the Fire Dragon Sword, launching out countless wind dragons that were accompanied by fire dragons, engulfing everything in its path.

Pong! Pong! Pong!

Explosions echoed one after another as hundreds and thousands of people were slain by Jiang Yi. The combination of the Massacre Intent, dao pattern attacks, and Fire Dragon Sword wasn’t something lower-staged soldiers and commanders could withstand against.

“Kill!”

When the three peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts saw Jiang Yi slaughtering the Divine Martial Kingdom’s army, fury flashed in their eyes as they burst towards Jiang Yi again. The war drums changed in tempo as Taishi Zhan change their formations again. The Purple Mansion Realm soldiers quickly retreated while those Soul Travel Realm experts gritted their teeth to surround and kill Jiang Yi.

“Haha, will you be able to kill this Young Master?”

Jiang Yi let out loud laughter. Before these people could even get near to him, there was a white flash across his body as he used the Soul-Devouring Shifting Art again to vanish from his current location.

Pong! Pong!

His figure quickly appeared kilometers to the left while two fire dragons were shot out, massacring huge groups of soldiers from the Divine Martial Kingdom.

“This…”

When Jiang Yi instant shifted the second time, the peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts were even more shocked. Who would be able to kill Jiang Yi if he had such ability? Wouldn’t they have to look on helplessly as he massacred the entire Divine Martial Kingdom’s army? Every time he attacked, he would kill at least a few hundred soldiers. Ten attacks would mean a few thousand soldiers; if it was a hundred attacks, it would be the loss of tens of thousands of soldiers. If this carried on, the Divine Martial Kingdom’s 200,000-strong army would be all wiped out within two to four hours.

What kind of ability is this? How can such an insane ability appear on the continent? Could it be an ultimate dao pattern of the spatial law?

The experts from the other kingdoms were stunned as well. Even the elderly consecrators from the Great Xia Kingdom were shocked. Unlimited instant shifting. This ability defied natural laws completely. Not even the Vajra Realm martial experts heard of such an ability that was so absurd. Shui Youlan’s ability to conjure an image over ten thousand miles was already an insanely incredible ability, and it was rumored to be a high-grade dao pattern.

This ability of Jiang Yi’s was obviously much more incredible than Shui Youlan’s ability. This meant that it could only be the legendary ultimate dao pattern. However, the question was… if one could comprehend an ultimate dao pattern, would they be a Heaven Monarch? Could Jiang Yi be a Heaven Monarch?

This was obviously impossible!

Countless eyes were filled with deep suspicion. Soon enough, some people quickly came up with some assumptions. This heaven-defying ability was either imparted by the Demon Empress or by Jiang Yi’s mother, Yi Piaopiao. Yi Piaopiao wasn’t considered renowned on the continent, but many clans still collected information about this generational prodigy. In Yi Piaopiao’s information, there were two appalling points. She had a shocking number of artifacts and an even more shocking number of incredible abilities.

Swish! Swish!

Jiang Yi completely ignored the eyes of suspicion and continued to instantly shift in succession, constantly killing those lower-classed soldiers and commanders. He wouldn’t even try to clash with those experts beyond the fifth stage of Soul Travel Realm. This put a lot of relief in the hearts of those experts as this meant that Jiang Yi’s strength wasn’t a threat to experts beyond the fifth stage of Soul Travel Realm. Furthermore, how many people could he kill by himself? Before he could eliminate the Divine Martial Kingdom’s army, wouldn’t Summer Rain City be razed to the ground?

Thump! Thump! Thump!

All the commanders had this flash of ferocity in their eyes as they began to give the command to attack. Many of the experts, who originally didn’t move, all began to flock towards Summer Rain City. Jiang Yi was just an additional variable. They had to quickly defeat the army in Summer Rain City and kill all the Su Clan members, putting Summer Rain City in complete destruction.

Xia Wuhui also quickly realized it as he gave the command. “General Taishi, don’t bother about Jiang Yi. Get the army to charge and take down Summer Rain City for this Crown Prince first. Once Summer Rain City has fallen, I shall see how Jiang Yi is going to defeat an army of a million. Today, even if he had a heaven-defying ability, he will not be able to turn around this desperate crisis!”
