Chapter 660: Xiaonu, Co Back!
Jiang Yi didn’t know sothing.
There were actually two thods to obtain thunder stones in the Sky Thunder Island. The first option was to wait for a thunder stone eruption in the nearby vicinity of thunder mountains. The second was to dig for thunder stones at the thunder ridges.
In normal situations, everyone would normally travel the main path towards the thunder mountains and wait for the thunder stone eruption before snatching for it as this place was the safest. There would be a spike in temperature when the Thunder Fire was about to spur out from the mountains, allowing everyone to back away in advance. Furthermore, these ten thunder mountains were separately occupied by the ten chiefs, which wouldn’t cause any conflicts or disputes.
There were ten chiefs in the city because there were ten thunder mountains. If soone wanted to beco the 11th chief, they had to take out one of the chiefs and seize their thunder mountain in order for anyone to pledge their allegiance to them.
The ten chiefs had all secretly agreed that they must not go plunder the thunder stones that erupted from the thunder mountains that didn’t belong to them. So when that thunder mountain burst out with thunder stones, the people in the nearby vicinity didn’t dare to snatch them.
The ten chiefs also gave an order that the obtaining of the thunder stones were all dependent on one’s strength and luck. Before anyone put their hands on the thunder stones, it could be fought for; but no lives must be taken. No one must snatch the thunder stones that were already in other’s possession, at least... not in public. It was up to one’s capability to snatch it in the dark!
Of course, there were many that attempted the second thod like newcors or those there were too weak to obtain any thunder stones. Those people would always take the risk and would ultimately die after entering the thunder ridges.
Thunderbolts from the sky would typically be striking on the ten thunder mountains, but it would occasionally strike on the thunder ridges. If it was to strike at the black rocks within the thunder ridges, it would similarly produce thunder stones.
When thunder stones were produced, there would be Thunder Fire which was extrely horrific. Regular martial artists would never be able to get near Thunder Fire, and it could even eliminate divine senses. Those that were familiar with the Thunder Fire would avoid the thunder ridges at all cost. Normally, an individual would only take the risk and enter the thunder ridges unless they were absolutely desperate.
Jiang Yi didn’t know about all these things, but he knew that he had found thunder stones, and that was enough!
He withdrew his Divine Perception and ran towards the depths of the thunder ridges. He wanted to collect enough thunder stones for that they could live peacefully in the city and serve the one-year period in safety.
His body flew with lightning speed as he looked around and search for the places with Thunder Fire!
Jiang Yi had the Fire Spirit Pearl and wasn’t afraid of high temperatures. He willfully traveled through the thunder ridges, and as long as he didn’t make contact with the Thunder Fire that spurted out from below. This place was just like his backyard.
If the martial artists in the city had known that Jiang Yi was flying through the thunder ridges so easily, it would definitely shock all of them. The thunder ridges were huge, and after so many years, it had produced plenty of thunder stones. No one had tried to dig for the thunder stones in these places, and Jiang Yi could find them easily. It would definitely cause all the martial artists in the city to be jealous and envious!
Two hours, four hours... eight hours!
Jiang Yi was shuttling around the thunder ridges like a monkey, and he had obtained at least 800 thunder stones within eight hours. The group had to submit nine thunder stones every day, which would an 90 thunder stones every ten days. Right now, he had over 800 thunder stones which could last him for almost 100 days, which is over three months.
“This should be enough, right?”
When Jiang Yi looked at the sky, it was almost nightfall; and he rembered that everyone would enter the city at dusk as no one else would return during the nightti. There were no thunderbolts during the nightti so there shouldn’t be any thunder stones eruption, which was why everyone returned to the city. It was best to be cautious. Since he already had more than 800 thunder stones, it was enough for them to last for a few months.
Jiang Yi rushed towards Sky Thunder City. He had entered the Union of Heaven and Earth state and blended with heaven and earth. He was neither fast nor slow, and if there was any commotion, he would be the first to know. He had already been ambushed by four Heaven Monarch experts in the morning; hence, he was naturally a little more cautious.
As he traveled, it was very peaceful. One hour later, he was 30 miles away from the city gates, and if he wasn’t closing his eyes, he should be able to see the giant Sky Thunder City from a distance.
Right at this mont...
He suddenly stopped as he noticed sothing different at the front. There were a few faintly discernible breathing sounds from the front. The sound was very slight, but Jiang Yi was in the Union of Heaven and Earth state, making him very sensitive to the surroundings. He could detect even a minute difference.
“One mile ahead, in a cavity of a small mountain, there are four individuals! It seems like it is those four Heaven Monarchs.”
Jiang Yi’s mind thought very quickly as he silently backed away. He circled the area and found a place with Thunder Fire. He stood on the peak of a small mountain and opened his eyes while his brows knitted tightly.
The four individuals were in a very ingenious ambush spot. This place was very close to the city, and those that want to enter the city would have to go through them. Jiang Yi could actually constantly instant-shift into the city, but his speed was too slow. They would probably catch up to him before he reached the city gates.
“Kill these four people!”
Finally, Jiang Yi made a decision as he had an unmatched advantage. The opposition didn’t know that he had four Heaven Monarchs here. If he was to instantly release Jiang Xiaonu, Feng Luan, and the Golden Flood Dragon out, they would definitely be able to catch them unprepared. If the four of them attacked two individuals at the sa ti—even if they couldn’t kill them, they would be able to severely injure them!
These four individuals had pursued after him twice, and he had so understanding of their offensive power. They weren’t considered too powerful, but there was only one thing they should be fearful of. It was that shuttle-shaped treasure that the most powerful Heaven Monarch had, which should be a transcending saint artifact.
If the four of them were to work together and kill him first, the three others would be sitting ducks. After all, Feng Luan’s darkness dao pattern was a group attack, and once the three of them were enveloped in the darkness dao pattern, they would be unable to escape.
Right now, the opposition was still hidden in there, and they didn’t know that Jiang Yi had detected them in advance with the Union of Heaven and Earth. Those four individuals didn’t dare to recklessly extend out their divine senses. Moreover, there was a bundle of Thunder Fire here.
Scheming against the unprepared!
If the four of them were to work together in a sneak attack, their odds of success would reach up to 80%!
After Jiang Yi decided on a plan, he imdiately took out his Thearch Palace and transmitted a ssage to Feng Luan, the Golden Flood Dragon, and Jiang Xiaonu. The three of them had been constantly concerned about Jiang Yi, and they were imdiately delighted to hear his transmitted voice.
Jiang Yi had explained the situation to the three of them, and after so discussion, his Fire Dragon Sword silently appeared in his hand while he entered the Union of Heaven and Earth state again. He then slowly flew towards the front.
Five miles, three miles... one mile!
The four Heaven Monarchs were still hidden within the soil of the mountain, and Jiang Yi pretended that he didn’t spot them. He turned his head left and right like a wretched thief. He didn’t even extend out his divine senses; neither did the people below. It felt as though both parties had yet to detect each other.
A thousand ters!
Three hundred ters!
Bang!
The soil and rocks below suddenly exploded as four figures rushed into the sky like violent dragons. A shuttle that was glowing with cold light shot towards Jiang Yi with a speed that was twice as fast as them. Right at this mont, Jiang Yi vanished.
“Uh...”
The four of them blinked their eyes with disbelief. They had all assud that they would be able to instantly kill Jiang Yi at such a close distance, they totally didn’t expect for Jiang Yi’s reaction to be this fast.
The four of them looked towards the west at the sa ti as they assud that Jiang Yi would try to escape towards the Sky Thunder City. After taking a glance, they didn’t discover Jiang Yi’s figure?
Everyone’s mind had a flash of doubt again when they suddenly heard a soft air-piercing sound from the bottom, which alerted the four of them. Four pairs of eyes swept down and just happened to see Jiang Yi’s figure reappearing below them.
Buzz!
At almost the sa ti, Jiang Yi’s Thearch Palace lit up; and three figures appeared in mid-air. Feng Luan’s hands brandished with lightning speed as a black aura gathered towards her and instantly covered the sky.
Swish!
Jiang Xiaonu had already transford within the Thearch Palace, and her aura presence was the most terrifying. The four individuals’ hearts palpitated when those lush green eyes looked at them while the pair of phoenix claws were glowing with green light and had the presence of death. Jiang Xiaonu imdiately rushed forward once she appeared outside of the Thearch Palace. Before everyone had been shrouded by the darkness, her giant claws had already slashed at the Heaven Monarch nad Fei Guo.
“Xiaonu, co back!”
Jiang Yi was greatly alard. He had transmitted a ssage to Jiang Xiaonu earlier for her to act according to the situation. He asked her to wait for them to attack for one round and look for opportunities to attack afterward. However, he didn’t expect that just as his Fire Dragon Sword lit up, Jiang Xiaonu had already burst through the air.
