Chapter 688: Risk It!
Chi! Chi!
Thunder Fire continued to emit out from Jiang Yi’s body. There were too many Thunder Fire in the Sky Thunder Island. There was basically no need for him to worry about them running out. There was nothing worth scrupling about even if he had used up all the Thunder Fire within the Fire Spirit Pearl for this battle.
While fleeing at a rapid speed, he would shroud himself in Thunder Fire which was 30 meters in radius around him. Simultaneously, he would cast all kinds of fusion martial skills behind him unceasingly, causing those Thunder Fire to follow with the attacks.
He didn’t dare to let Chief Leng approach him. Who knew what kind of terrifying attacks he possessed? Up till now, he could only choose to fight a prolonged battle. He didn’t believe that Chief Leng would be able to continue withstanding the high temperature from the Thunder Fire.
“d.a.m.n it!”
Indeed, Chief Leng couldn’t withstand it any longer. He was only several miles away from Jiang Yi. Although he possessed deep and resounding essence force and a pseudo-divine artifact hidden within his clothes that could allow his divine s.h.i.+eld to be numerous times stronger than any Heaven Monarchs that were in the same realm as him, the high-temperature heat wave was still too terrifying. His essence force was being consumed like running water. He was afraid that his divine s.h.i.+eld would break apart due to his incaution, causing him to be burnt alive.
“Die—!”
His eyes were filled with killing intent. A tiny youth—a Vajra Realm martial artist—actually possessed a method to make his life feel threatened. How could he not be infuriated? He was also coveting the treasures on Jiang Yi particularly. Needless to say, that fiery red battle armor was definitely a pseudo-divine artifact. Once he killed Jiang Yi and obtained the treasures on him, his battle strength would be doubled.
Chi! Chi!
He locked onto the fleeing Jiang Yi as he struck out a palm strike abruptly. That palm strike whizzed over while the spatial zone around it fluctuated once again. The fluctuation was like a tide as it engulfed over. The spatial zone started fluctuating intensively as it surged over towards Jiang Yi perilously.
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
At the same time, Chief Leng also struck out another strike towards the sky. Clearly, that palm strike was a fused spatial dao pattern. After it was stuck out, it disappeared immediately after. At the next second, it appeared 300 meters above Jiang Yi as it came pressuring down like Mt. Tai cras.h.i.+ng down.
“This Chief Leng is trying to crush me to death.”
Jiang Yi grumbled inwardly. The spatial zone fluctuating behind him had already engulfed over. He felt as if his body had fallen into waves of the sea. He felt his entire body rolling over, causing his speed to be greatly reduced. Meanwhile, the palm print above him came whizzing down, and he was no longer able to escape even if he wished to.
“Come on!”
The Fire Dragon Sword on him lit up as he suddenly struck out several fusion martial skills towards the sky together with the Thunder Fire out continuously. Chief Leng’s big palm print was too domineering. As long as he was able to squander away a portion of the energy in this big palm, it wouldn’t be able to smash him to death.
Chi! Chi!
Sure enough, the electric arc within the Thunder Fire skewered out continuously as it shot into the giant palm. The giant palm was surrounded by the electric arc as the energy within it was being weakened rapidly. It became a third smaller when it collided onto the Thunder Fire around Jiang Yi.
Boom!
The large palm print smashed onto the mountain peak beneath Jiang Yi heavily. Countless boulders on the summit were destroyed while smoke and dust pervaded the air. There was still a large palm print at where Jiang Yi had fallen, which was extremely deep and bottomless.
Swis.h.!.+
Jiang Yi broke up from the waist of the mountain as he fled continuously. There were bloodstains tickling down the corner of his mouth. Clearly, he was injured from the jolt again. If it wasn’t because of the Fire Cloud Armor and his physique that had been reformed by the Dest.i.tute Dragon Gra.s.s—allowing him to grow ten times stronger, he would have died horribly.
“Hmph. I would like to see how many attacks you can block!”
Chief Leng eyebrows p.r.i.c.ked up. His eyes were eerily cold as he chased after Jiang Yi unhurriedly while he didn’t dare to get too close to him. Similar to what he had done before, he struck out a palm strike to shake up the spatial zone. Once Jiang Yi was no longer able to escape, he would release a spatial palm print to smash at Jiang Yi heavily.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Every attack would send Jiang Yi flying down. The mountain peaks around him would either collapse, crack apart, or cave in. A series of explosion resonated out while several lumps of dust surged up towards the sky while rocks burst out in all directions. The scene was extremely breathtaking and also shocking to the hearts.
“Pfff!”
Jiang Yi vomited blood constantly. His viscera had been injured from the impacts numerous times, and his speed had slowed down by a lot. His complexion had also turned paler. No one would be able to endure being injured by consecutive attacks. Fortunately, Jiang Yi’s perfect const.i.tution was healing itself automatically. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to endure for so long.
He took out a recuperation elixir and threw it into his mouth. It was mixed together with his blood while he swallowed it down. He had already consumed several recuperation elixirs. However, the potency of the medicine could not be dispersed out. Even if it had been dispersed around his body, it still needed time for it to take effect. Yet, Chief Leng’s attack was continued endlessly.
“Not good. If this carries on, I will be smashed alive!”
His eyes flickered. Once he was gravely injured, his reaction and flight speed would become slower over time. From how the situation was, it wouldn’t be a problem for Chief Leng to last for another half or a day more… while Jiang Yi would only able to last for an hour more.
“Risk it!”
A smear of craziness was shown within his eyes. He did not have any intention to release Feng Luan and the others out. It was useless to rely on numbers when facing such an expert. He could only rely on risking his life!
Suddenly, he turned around like a mad dragon in mid-air as he turned into an afterimage while darting towards Chief Leng. He poured Thunder Fire out of his body with all his might while his Fire Dragon Sword turned into tens of thousands of red beams as he slashed towards where Chief Leng was abruptly.
“Uh…”
Chief Leng narrowed his eyes. He felt the temperature around him had increased several times. He retreated hastily while his black gown fluttered. Countless black runic patterns flew out as it shot into his divine s.h.i.+eld, causing the radiance on his divine s.h.i.+eld to grow extensively.
“A desperate attempt?”
He calmed himself down while retreating rapidly. Jiang Yi’s speed was too inferior compared to him. It was basically impossible for Jiang Yi to approach him as he struck out another palm strike. Would Jiang Yi still dare to charge towards him? It would be no different from seeking death!
Unexpectedly, just when he had struck out the palm strike, Jiang Yi had suddenly disappeared from mid-air when the spatial zone had barely fluctuated. No one dared to spread their divine senses in this thunder ridge. Therefore, Chief Leng blinked his eyes and felt that he had misinterpreted what he just saw. However, when he swept his gaze out towards his surroundings, he saw the spatial zone a mile away before he had started fluctuating; and a silhouette appeared suddenly.
“Ah?”
Chief Leng was terror-stricken. He fled immediately. The moment Jiang Yi appeared, the Thunder Fire were being poured out like torrents instantly as he executed a few slashes abruptly. Layers of terrifying heat wave engulfed over and caused the surrounding atmosphere to start combusting.
“This brat can instant-s.h.i.+ft as well?”
Tempestuous waves arose within Chief Leng’s heart. His speed had already reached its peak while the black runic patterns within the pseudo-divine artifact innerwear were rus.h.i.+ng towards his divine s.h.i.+eld as it resisted against the engulfment from the heat wave, and his back had turned wet from his cold sweat. If Jiang Yi had instant-s.h.i.+fted somewhat nearer, he would be dead.
Of course…
Actually, he had felt threatened instinctively a moment ago. If he had reacted by releasing an attack immediately, Jiang Yi would be exploded to death even before his body reappeared. However, he wasn’t able to spread his divine senses out in this vicinity. This was a huge issue for him because his reaction speed would definitely be a lot slower if he had to rely on his eyes.
Swis.h.!.+
Jiang Yi pursued Chief Leng frantically. He continued to slash out his Fire Dragon Sword unceasingly while it brought forth layers of surging heat waves. It caused the temperature around Chief Leng to rise constantly. Jiang Yi would constantly be instant-s.h.i.+fting. A moment, he would be at the left before appearing at his right at the next. He attacked desperately and had completely disregarded the consumption of Thunder Fire. He had also ignored his safety and only focused on not letting Chief Leng had any moment to take a breather.
Jiang Yi’s Thunder Fire was everywhere. How could Chief Leng dare to extend his divine senses out with those electric arcs stored within the Thunder Fire? If by any chance he were to be triturated by the electric arc, his divine senses would be wiped out, which would injure his soul spirit. He would then die here today inevitably.
Therefore, Jiang Yi continued to instant-s.h.i.+ft around while Chief Leng could only rely on his eyes to scan his surroundings. He would search for where Jiang Yi had instant-s.h.i.+fted to in order to avoid him. The disparity between using the eyes and the divine senses to scan the surrounding was just way too drastic. Every time Jiang Yi reappeared, it would be too late for Chief Leng to attack. Jiang Yi would immediately release his Thunder Fire, causing the high temperature to engulf the surroundings. If he didn’t retreat, his divine s.h.i.+eld would be broken apart. By then, only death awaited him.
“This Chief doesn’t believe that he has an inexhaustible amount of Thunder Fire.”
Chief Leng eyes turned cold. He couldn’t think of any means to attack and focused on evading while waiting for Jiang Yi to fully use up his Thunder Fire. By then, it would be time for him to eliminate Jiang Yi.
