Chapter 347: Kill Him Before Dying
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
He Lao had already reached the peak stage of the Soul Travel Realm more than thirty years ago. He could be considered an expert famed for many years, and his status in the Zhan Clan was very important, too. However, in terms of dao pattern, He Lao didn’t know too much about it. For all those decades, he only comprehended one type of dao pattern. He couldn’t even figure out the second dao pattern for decades and had yet to even take half a step into the Vajra Realm; thus, he wasn’t well-versed in dao patterns.
Then again, he was certain that the dao pattern attack that Jiang Yi released earlier was surely not of the low-grade dao pattern. He had witnessed plenty of low-grade dao patterns, but he never saw one with such power.
Immediately comprehending a mid-grade dao pattern?
When thinking about this point, He Lao’s body and soul spirit were both trembling. He had just witnessed a miracle. This was the first individual in ten thousand years to directly comprehend a mid-grade dao pattern. Furthermore... it was an instant comprehension!
This isn’t right!
When he thought about instant comprehension, He Lao suddenly realized something. He looked at Jiang Yi as though he was looking at a monster. He had this indescribable feeling that Jiang Yi wasn’t a normal person, or perhaps he had something that was definitely different from a normal person. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to instantly comprehend a mid-grade dao pattern.
Massacre Intent, Fire Dragon Sword, Earth Fire, Fire Spirit Rock... Soul-Devouring Shifting Art!
All of these mystical abilities and artifacts proved that Jiang Yi was extraordinary. If there was only one of it, it could be explained as a fated encounter or heaven-defying fortune. With so many mystical traits, He Lao couldn’t help but suspect Jiang Yi of something.
There was this individual that flashed in his mind, who similarly had prodigious talents and was extraordinary. He quickly denied it. Jiang Bieli might have plenty of abnormal traits, but it was still within the ordinary scope—which wasn’t as shocking as Jiang Yi’s.
Yi Piaopiao!
A figure of an absolute beauty appeared in He Lao’s mind as he was fortunate enough to see Yi Piaopiao in the distance once. This woman had so much mystery and so many mystics on her. A majority of the people, including the previous Zhan Clan Head, guessed that Yi Piaopiao wasn’t from the Stellarsky Continent. Seeing the mystical traits on Jiang Yi now, it made He Lao even more suspicious.
Could it be that Yi Piaopiao was from a formidable special race that wasn’t from Stellarsky Continent? She had a constitution that was different from normal humans? Jiang Yi had inherited her constitution, and so he was able to instantly comprehend mid grade dao pattern? To be able to comprehend the fourth rank of the Massacre Intent at such a young age? Many of the artifacts were actually left behind by Yi Piaopiao to Jiang Yi? En... disregarding the other things, the Soul-Devouring Shifting Art is definitely handed down from Yi Piaopiao. The old Clan Head mentioned that she had this ability.
He Lao had many unexplainable doubts. Once he associated it with Yi Piaopiao’s strength and mysteries, he didn’t have any more doubts. He started to get excited as no one desired for death, and it was a great thing to be able to survive. Jiang Yi had comprehended a powerful dao pattern attack, which gave him some hope.
“Eh...”
He Lao was bewildered, but Jiang Yi felt even more so. This attack stupefied him as he looked perplexed. He blinked his eyes and murmured, “Why is my dao pattern attack’s power so immense? It seems to be even more powerful than He Lao’s dao pattern? Could it be that I comprehend a different dao pattern?”
Tsk-Tsk!
Jiang Yi released another dao pattern attack. An essence force whizzed out from the Fire Dragon Sword and instantly split into a few tens of thousands of little fire dragons that rushed and attack the red-eyed creatures. These little fire dragons could even seek their targets automatically and attacked the creatures in all directions.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Groups of red-eyed creatures were all blasted into smithereens which proved that Jiang Yi’s comprehended dao pattern was very ferocious, which also intensified the doubt in Jiang Yi’s mind.
“Young Master Yi, stop thinking about it. You didn’t comprehend Old He’s dao pattern; you have comprehended a mid-grade dao pattern!”
He Lao sent a message which sounded a little excited, which astonished Jiang Yi again. He quickly snapped out of it as this wasn’t the right moment to think about such things.
Jiang Yi forced himself to not think about it and quickly ran over, picking up He Lao with a single hand. He squatted down and was prepared to carry He Lao on his back. Once He Lao’s leg lifted off the ground, Jiang Yi felt abnormally heavy and had no way to carry He Lao.
“Young Master Yi, you don’t have to carry me. Old He just needs some rest, and I will be able to walk. You hold on for a moment.”
He Lao forced out a smile, which was a genuine smile. He struggled to sit cross-legged and consumed a recuperation elixir and refined it. Jiang Yi stood by his side. Whenever the red-eyed creatures approached, he would brandish his blade and clear out a thirty-meter radius of creatures effortlessly. The formidable power was truly incredible.
After one hour, He Lao gritted his teeth before standing up and nodded to Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi knew that He Lao was afraid he might release too many dao pattern attacks and would be overly exhausted. He barely recovered some stamina and immediately made haste.
Jiang Yi was indeed exhausted, and his stamina, essence force, and mental energy were depleted. He didn’t dare to put on a strong front and lent an arm to support He Lao while walking towards the teleportation array.
Tsk-Tsk!
Along the way, Jiang Yi would release the dao pattern attack. This attack was a hundred folds more ferocious than He Lao’s attack. Perhaps, every fire dragon’s attack power might not be comparable to He Lao, but the quantity of the fire dragons was a hundred folds more than He Lao’s attack. There was an unending stream of fire dragons which would rush at the red-eyed creatures, blasting groups of them easily.
Three kilometers, two kilometers... 1000 meters!
Jiang Yi’s face was beginning to turn green, and he would stagger as he walked. It was obvious that Jiang Yi was exceptionally weak, but the teleportation array was just ahead. He Lao and his eyes were growing brighter as they got closer—as their faces revealed a joyous expression as they survived a calamity.
The monsters that guarded the third floor were truly several folds stronger than the second floor. How much more terrifying would the fourth floor be? Wouldn’t the fifth floor be an existence that was truly horrifying? The two of them didn’t know the answers, but they were ecstatic to be able to pass the third floor. The feeling of surviving a calamity was truly wonderful.
Finally...
Just as Jiang Yi was so tired that he couldn’t even straighten his lower back, they finally arrived at the teleportation array. As soon as the teleportation array lit up, they let out a huge breath at the same time and grinned.
Buzz!
Just as they expected, the two of them were teleported into the palace again, which looked exactly like the first and second floor. The only different thing was there was this dashing youth who was seated at the side of the teleportation array.
“Jiang Yi!”
When the two of them teleported in, that youth immediately bounced up and dashed into the teleportation array. Jiang Yi noticed that person, but his body was too frail and didn’t have any strength to pursue.
“Jiang Yi, I didn’t expect you two to be able to pass the third floor? Hmph... if you have the capability to enter the fourth floor, you shall witness how this Prince kills the two of you!”
Yun Lu’s sinister laughter echoed in the palace while the teleportation array lit up, with his body vanishing from the palace. He Lao’s expression immediately changed; his originally relaxed heart instantly tensed-up.
Jiang Yi’s butt was seated on the ground, but he didn’t have much concern on his face. He minded his own business and took out some recuperation medicine to rest and recuperate.
After tending to his wounds, he could see He Lao’s eyes flickering and his brows had nothing but worry. Jiang Yi grinned and consoled: “He Lao, don’t worry. That Yun Lu is just trying to frighten us. His body might be flowing with the purest blood of the Yun Clan—perhaps the Witch God might give him some preferential treatment, but it wouldn’t be too excessive. So... even if we go to the fourth floor, he will not have an overwhelming advantage. Even if we are to die on the fourth floor, I have confidence that I will kill him before dying.”
