Chapter 981: Dwarf Race
On the ice plain, there was a white shadow that was floating on the surface. This white shadow was like a ghost and didn’t seem to have any physical body, and its body was translucent. It looked like a mist, and one could even see the white veins in its body. When it was sprinting, the white veins would even flow with radiance, making it a bizarre sight.
Its appearance was like a leopard, but it had a very small size which was of a baby and like a stray cat. It had extreme speed and was s.h.i.+fting from left to right like an apparition. When it was s.h.i.+fting, there wasn’t a hint of sound; and it was just like a cool breeze floating around. It attacked using its eyes, and every time, those eyes would shoot out two rays of white light. The white light was shockingly fast, and not even the divine senses could trace it as it vanished in an instant.
This was obviously the ice imp, but Jiang Yi wasn’t shocked by the ice imp, but by the race that was battling with the ice imp. They were two humans—strictly speaking, they were dwarfs—and were only 60 centimeters tall. However, they were both wielding an iron hammer which was several times bigger than their bodies. They looked strange, awkward, and a little comical.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The two dwarfs were constantly brandis.h.i.+ng their hammers. Their bodies might be short, but they were very nimble. The two hammers would smash hard onto the surface of the ice from time to time, and Jiang Yi was shocked by this. Every time the hammers smashed on the surface of the ice, a layer of ice would shake intensively, subsequently followed by cracks extending out in all directions.
These two dwarfs should only be at the first or second level of Heaven Monarch from based on their aura presence, but the attacks from them would probably be able to smash a divine s.h.i.+eld of a middle-stage Heaven Monarch, right?
Jiang Yi was silently sighing with admiration. He truly couldn’t underestimate anyone in this snow region. This place was filled with ancient races that had survived over hundreds of thousands of years. These races must have some outstanding traits; otherwise, they would already have vanished in the long river of history.
The dwarfs had sharp attacks, but it was a pity that the ice imp was too fast. It moved like a ghost. When the two dwarfs worked together, there were many times when they nearly hit the ice imp, but the ice imp was able to escape without any trouble.
Jiang Yi was also astonished about something. The ice imp’s soul spirit attack would strike at the two dwarfs again and again, but nothing seemed to be happening to them. These two dwarfs seemed to be immune to the soul spirit attacks and didn’t have any reactions.
“Ha!”
One of the dwarfs was swirling in the air, and the hammers were rotating together. It was so fast that one would only be able to see light, and the surrounding wind and snow were also drawn over. The ice imp’s eyes revealed traces of apprehensive looks and didn’t attack. Instead, it was flying towards far away.
“Die!”
The swirling dwarf roared loudly and stopped the body’s revolution before the twin hammers smashed in front. It had guided the surrounding wind and snow, turning them into a snow dragon which whizzed at ahead and enveloping the ice imp’s body without effort. The ice imp let out a miserable shriek and was sucked into the snow dragon while the other dwarf burst forward and used the twin hammers that were radiating with yellow light to attack the ice imp restricted by the snow dragon.
Chi! Chi!
Mo Tian, who had been hidden all along, had acted at this moment. His eyes flashed with black light, and a black shadow flew out and penetrated the layer of ice effortlessly which struck one of the dwarfs. He then burst out from the layer of ice and used his sharp claws glinting with cold light and clawed at the dwarf.
“Heaven Devil Race!”
When the dwarf saw that the ice imp was about to be killed by his comrade, he revealed a smile. However, when the black light buried into his body, he was instantly astonished and wanted to escape. Mo Tian’s speed was too fast, and he had emerged from underground without any sound and presence. A pair of sharp claws that were glinting with a black light and instantly tore the dwarf into pieces.
“Young Master!”
That dwarf, which was about to kill the ice imp, was immediately infuriated when he saw his comrade got killed by Mo Tian. He spun in the air and quickly launched a snow dragon at Mo Tian.
Chi! Chi!
Mo Tian had succeeded in his first attempt and rushed back underground like a swift ape. When snow dragon whizzed over and smashed heavily on the layers of ice, countless cracks had been created; and that dwarf was roaring loudly with fury.
“Wu-Wu~ Wu-Wu!”
The dwarf let out a peculiar cry, and Jiang Yi noticed that Mo Tian’s expression had instantly changed. However, Mo Tian was still traversing in the layer of ice and quickly rushed at the other dwarf. He broke out of the ice and killed that dwarf with ease.
“Ice imp!”
When Mo Tian saw that ice imp was lying on the ground like a bag of water, he ecstatically grabbed it with one hand and stored it inside his ancient divine essence ring. He then immediately dove into the layer of ice and rushed towards Jiang Yi. He ran and yelled at the same time, “Mo Xing, quickly run. That dwarf earlier is probably a young master from a major clan of the Dwarf Race. The dwarf had summoned for their comrades.”
Jiang Yi didn’t think much of it and replied with a grin, “Are they faster than us in the ice?”
“Less chatter!”
When Mo Tian rushed to Jiang Yi’s side, he was still rus.h.i.+ng frantically and yelling out, “The dwarfs’ tracking ability is the best in the snow region, and they have the advantage of numbers. I have killed two of their people, and they will certainly pursue us all the way to Heaven Devil Mountain. It will be our victory if we can survive and make it back to the Heaven Devil Mountain.
Swis.h.!.+
When Mo Tian was rus.h.i.+ng, Jiang Yi quickly followed and scanned the surface with his divine senses. Fifteen minutes later, he noticed countless dwarfs were gathering towards his place from all directions. A single glance was enough to spot over thirty of them.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
That group of dwarfs raised their twin hammers high and constantly hammered the ground. The hammering this time was different from the intensive battle earlier. The surface of the ice didn’t split apart and simply shook without end. It felt like the sea waves which crashed wave after wave. The place where Mo Tian and Jiang Yi was at had been shaken, causing their speed to instantly decline.
“Darn! We have been discovered.”
Mo Tian’s boorish face immediately revealed a trace of anxiety. His ancient divine essence ring lit up before he tossed out the ice imp and yelled out, “Mo Xing, you escape back to Heaven Devil Mountain with your fastest speed. I will cut their pursuit; otherwise, both of us will have to die here.”
“No way!”
Jiang Yi rejected with a cold voice. Mo Tian must not die. If he died, how was Jiang Yi going to infiltrate the Heaven Devil Sect? Jiang Yi’s eyes flashed with black light as he said, “Elder brother Mo Tian. Wait for me here. I will go kill that group of dwarfs.”
“d.a.m.n it!”
Mo Tian glared at Jiang Yi and yelled at him while pulling him, “Are you insane? With your strength, you wouldn’t even fill the gaps in their teeth. Get lost!”
Jiang Yi grinned and spoke with confidence, “Elder brother, do you remember? I previously mentioned that I comprehended a powerful ability. I am confident that I can kill this group of dwarfs with ease. Elder brother, trust me and wait for me here. If the situation isn’t going well, then come and support me.”
Swis.h.!.+
Jiang Yi struck out the astral winds and smashed up the surface of the ground ahead of him. He then shot out like a violent dragon. If he wanted to obtain the information of the Heaven Hidden Sect from the Heaven Devil Sect Patriarch, he had to rise up in the Heaven Devil Sect. If he wanted to rise up, he had to battle; and he was going to use this group of dwarfs to start the plan.
“It is the Heaven Devil Race, kill!”
Just as Jiang Yi flew out, dozens of dwarfs increased in speed and soared to the sky one after the other. They were wielding their giant hammers and smas.h.i.+ng at Jiang Yi ruthlessly and with imposing manner.
