Chapter 1644: Kill My Way Back to the Earth Domain
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The heavens were indeed not on Jiang Yi’s side!
The Poison Spirit looked around for twelve full Lower-Domain days. Still, he found nothing. Jiang Yi himself worked on the Thousand Illusory Hands for twelve days but only made a little progress. He was still a far cry from realizing it substantially or even perfecting it.
What’s more... until then, he still did not know if the mystical ability could be used together with his rged Flas. He had been thinking too much during this period. Still, he could not think of a solution.
Qi Qingchen had remained in seclusion the entire ti, and she had the divine tree leaf with her. Jiang Yi was too embarrassed to ask her to return it so he decided to continue cultivating his Power of Heaven and Earth through gritted teeth. At the sa ti, he continued to work hard on the Thousand Illusory Hands.
The Poison Spirit kept looking around for an exit, unwilling to give up. He discovered sothing tragic: he had already left a mark on every single passageway. Still, there seed to be no exit. The maze was huge, and there were at least millions of corridors to walk through. The Poison Spirit walked day and night and went through every single passage. However, there did not seem to be an exit from this maze.
The Poison Spirit knew that there was sothing wrong here. If he could find the problem, perhaps he would be able to find the exit. He returned once to tell Jiang Yi what he had found.
However, Jiang Yi did not walk out. He believed that this maze was a mistake from the beginning. There was no way they were going to be able to find an exit.
The maze must have an exit, and that exit led to the fourth level. The Demon-Killing Sword and Demon-Killing Armor, along with the core that controlled the Demon-Killing Palace, must all be hidden on the fourth level. However, one mistake had caused them to spiral downwards. Jiang Yi lost this precious opportunity. He had run out of luck.
All of these things could be explained!
If Jiang Yi were the Demon-Killing Supre Thearch and he created such a powerful and huge maze like this, he would not have allowed visitors who made a single mistake to get away with it. He would not give such a person another chance. Instead, he would trap the person in the maze, not allowing him or her to redeem himself or herself.
To the person who set this entire thing up, it did not matter who got his treasures.
The fact that he could make it into this maze showed that he had enough skills and intelligence. People who were not King-Ranked martial artists would not be able to enter this maze. The fact that Jiang Yi could enter this maze in the face of so much competition proved that he was no idiot. Now, all the Demon-Killing Supre Thearch wanted to test was his luck. Since he did not have this luck... he could only wait to try again next ti.
The Demon-Killing Sword and Demon-Killing Armor, as well as the Demon-Killing Palace, were all the most powerful treasures of the Demon-Killing Supre Thearch. Naturally, he would not want people to easily obtain them. After all, whoever got them would be rembered for a long ti in the world. Thus, once Jiang Yi realized that he had missed this opportunity, he did not bother to waste any more ti or effort.
Ti was moving very quickly!
Twenty more Lower-Domain days passed, and the Poison Spirit finally gave up all hope. He had made countless rounds around the maze, and his head was already spinning. He could not tell left from right anymore.
He was one of the best scouts in the world and was very attentive to detail. He could spot any little gap or anomaly very easily. Yet, after such a long ti in this maze, he could not find anything out of the ordinary.
Jiang Yi’s head hurt. Without the divine tree leaf, his realization progress was way too slow. Although he had realized so things already, he could not summon the mystical ability at all, much less do anything else with it.
“Qingchen!”
Finally, he could not hold himself back any longer. He called Qi Qingchen out. Whether Qi Qingchen could realize the Five Hundred Kiloter Accelerator or not was no longer important because they could not depend on her alone to escape.
Therefore, with the remaining thirty Lower-Domain days, Jiang Yi had to use the divine tree leaf to try his best. He needed to see if he would be able to realize the Thousand Illusory Hands and whether it would be of any help to them.
“Ah?”
Qi Qingchen opened her eyes in shock. She stared at Jiang Yi with her beautiful eyes and asked curiously, “What’s the matter? Did you make so progress? Where are we?”
“We’ve made no progress!”
Jiang Yi shook his head and sighed. “We’re stuck in here. This is a maze. The Poison Spirit has already walked around several tis looking for an exit, but there is none. We can only wait to be teleported out. More than half of the day has already passed. I’m trying to realize this other mystical ability. Have you made much progress on yours?”
“In that case...”
Qi Qingchen mumbled to herself for several seconds before she suddenly floated away in a flash. Her speed was several tis faster than it was before. What’s more—as she moved, Jiang Yi felt like he could not clearly make out where she was.
Swish!
Qi Qingchen floated back, smiled, and nodded. “This Five Hundred Kiloter Accelerator is really one of the best movent techniques. I’m guessing it belonged to the Demon-Killing Supre Thearch himself. I’ve only just realized the first level of it. There’s still another level to advance to. If I can get to the third level, I think I would be able to move as quickly as the Phantom King!”
“F*ck...”
Jiang Yi’s eyes widened in shock. He thought that the cultivation technique was not strong at all and that Qi Qingchen could not move as fast as the mummy even if she managed to cultivate it. He did not expect that it would be so formidable. Imdiately, he averted his gaze and said, “Are you confident of getting to the third level within the rest of the day?”
“Are you joking?”
Qi Qingchen rolled her eyes and said, “I don’t think I’ll be able to get to the second level even if you gave half a month, much less half a day. That’s my cultivation speed even with your divine tree leaf. The next two levels are going to be extrely difficult. The Demon-Killing Supre Thearch made his own notes on the book. In less than half a day, he could not make any progress on the second level.”
“That is a pity!”
Jiang Yi sighed helplessly then reached out his hand. “Then, pass the divine tree leaf to . I have to train using this manual first. I want to see how effective it would be.”
The Demon-Killing Supre Thearch had left these two manuals in the middle of the third level of his palace. If the Five Hundred Kiloter Accelerator was so formidable, the Thousand Illusory Hands could not be that bad, could it? If he could use it together with his rged Flas, it would help him a lot in breaking through the surrounding army later on.
“En!”
Qi Qingchen handed the divine tree leaf over to Jiang Yi. After pondering for a mont, she said, “Cultivating for less than half a day will not be of any use. I’ll go and walk around the maze and try my luck.”
Jiang Yi instructed her to leave clues behind as she turned corners and to re-trace her footsteps if she found that she could not go on any longer. She was also to return imdiately if she faced any threat. Qi Qingchen then transford into a breeze and floated away. She was trained in wind-elental nomological laws. This Five Hundred Kiloter Accelerator was just to her liking.
Jiang Yi continued to cultivate his Power of Heaven and Earth and realize his Thousand Illusory Hands. With the divine tree leaf, he imdiately felt the difference in his speed of progress. He was realizing a hundred thousand tis faster than he was before. At first, Jiang Yi’s speed of realization was akin to a gentle stream. Now, however, it felt like a coursing river. The difference in speed was huge.
This looked like a very simple, supportive mystical ability. Jiang Yi’s soul spirit was not too weak now. If he had been trying to realize ordinary mystical abilities—with the help of the leaf, he would have been able to completely realize them in a couple of Lower-Domain days. However, this Thousand Illusory Hands seed too complicated and mysterious.
However, the more complicated and mysterious a technique was, the more excited Jiang Yi beca. This ant that the technique would be formidable. If anyone could easily realize it, how strong could the mystical ability possibly be? Take the Mighty God Technique for example. It was extrely difficult for Jiang Yi to train in it.
Ti passed extrely fast. They were ten Lower-Domain days away from being teleported out. Qi Qingchen had returned. Although she walked several rounds around the maze, she could not find an exit as well. She could not even find any missing gaps or suspicious areas in the set-up.
The Poison Spirit was not back yet. He had not given up. He was prepared to do one last search at the last minute. Jiang Yi remained in seclusion the entire ti, even after Qi Qingchen returned. Qi Qingchen had no choice but to sit quietly by the side either until Jiang Yi woke up or until the three of them were transported out of the maze.
They had one last Lower-Domain day left. The Poison Spirit ca back looking dejected. Qi Qingchen did not bother asking him if he found anything useful. Instead, both of them turned to face Jiang Yi. Whether they could survive was all up to him now.
Buzz!
After fourteen to eighteen hours, one of Jiang Yi’s hands suddenly lit up. Then, its handprint filled the air, flying toward the two of them. The most amazing thing was Jiang Yi was not even moving, but that handprint seed to be coming at them from all directions. There were handprints everywhere they looked. Each one of them looked very realistic. Even the killing intent that they exuded seed real and overwhelming!
“Jiang Yi!”
Qi Qingchen’s expression changed as she exclaid. However, she did not move. The Poison Spirit was rendered all the more speechless. Even his expression remained the sa. Even if Jiang Yi wanted to kill him, he would not have said a single word to resist.
“Hahaha!”
They heard a burst of laughter as the handprints imdiately disappeared. Jiang Yi stood up and grinned. “The Demon-Killing Supre Thearch has not disappointed . Go into my Chaos Essence Pearl. I will bring you through the surrounding army and kill my way back to the Earth Domain!”
