“Run—!”
Jiang Yi tossed the body of the sea lion demon king into the Thearch Palace which appeared on his hand. Then, he swiftly asked the Yazi Beast to go up straight to the sea surface.
He didn’t do this for the material on the body of the demon king. He was only trying to conceal the body and hide the smell so that he would not be easily found by that lion demon thearch.
When the Yazi Beast emerged from the sea surface, Jiang Yi sighed with relief upon seeing the clear sky without any thunder or lightning. Although he was facing the imminent danger, he forced himself to calm down. When seeing the Yazi Beast flying to the north after coming out from the sea, he suddenly shouted in a low voice, “Yazi Beast, don’t fly to the north! Go west instead.”
“To the west?”
The Yazi Beast blinked and was a bit confused. They came from the west; were they going back because they killed the son of a demon thearch? The two Heaven Monarchs might be looking for them; was it really wise to go back now?
“Hurry up! Release all your aura and fly to the west as fast as you can! Don’t ask so many questions—go now!”
Jiang Yi shouted angrily. Though the Yazi Beast had some doubts, it didn’t dare to disobey Jiang Yi. It quickly flew to the west and let out all its aura. In only a few blinks of the eye, they disappeared in the sky to the west.
“Fly to the north!”
After traveling for hundreds of thousands of kilometers, Jiang Yi shouted again. The Yazi Beast was completely at a loss and cared no more. It just went wherever Jiang Yi asked it to go.
“Go down to the sea!”
After flying for another hundreds of thousands of kilometers, Jiang Yi shouted again. The Yazi Beast was startled at first, but it quickly dove into the sea. When it was just 50 kilometers away from the sea surface, Jiang Yi put the Yazi Beast into the Thearch Palace which was taken out from the Fire Spirit Pearl. With one instant s.h.i.+ft, he disappeared into the sea.
Buzz! Buzz!
He appeared in the sky and continued to instant-s.h.i.+ft. This time, he was heading to the sky. Without any delay, he was at the height of 5,000 kilometers. After that, without any break, he kept on instant-s.h.i.+fting to the east.
How mighty the demon thearch was!
Though he took in the body of the sea lion demon king, the demon thearch surely could chase after him via the surrounding smell. He asked the Yazi Beast to let out all its aura to conceal his scent. Then, he instant-s.h.i.+fted away so that his aura could disappear from the sea. In this way—even if the demon thearch could find his aura, it would cost him some time to find him.
Despite all these efforts, Jiang Yi still didn’t dare to let his guard down. He instant-s.h.i.+fted straight to the east at full speed. He only stopped after going for one day and one night.
He had no choice but to stop as the sky in front of him was, again, covered with black clouds with thunder and lightning.
“We should be around there, right?”
Jiang Yi looked back a few times. After one day and one night, the lion demon thearch had yet to keep up with him. It was highly possible that it failed to locate his aura. After all, the speed of the demon thearch was so fast. It would have long been here if his aura was locked up.
“Let’s go!”
Taking a few deep breaths, Jiang Yi rushed down to the sea. The black clouds in the front were spread over. A thunderbolt split the sky and whizzed down. Though it was some distance away, the immense pressure hidden inside still caused Jiang Yi’s heart to palpitate.
Down the sea, Jiang Yi didn’t dare to instant-s.h.i.+ft anymore. After all, thunderbolts were constantly striking down. If he got so unlucky and instant-s.h.i.+fted to a place where the lightning hit, it would be an awful way to die.
Fortunately, his essence force had reached the Vajra Realm, and he was not moving too slow. In addition, he had obtained two Sweet Flag Leaves in the underground world which enhanced his soul spirit by a lot. Thus, even if he had not progressed in rank—his divine senses could reach as far as 100 kilometers, which was three times the distance in the past. Therefore, he could easily detect the way that the thunderbolts were going.
Buzz!
A thunderbolt in front of him whizzed down. With rough estimation, Jiang Yi felt that he couldn’t get away from it and had to instant-s.h.i.+ft. Fortunately, he was lucky, there was no lightning falling down in the surroundings where he condensed his body.
Just like this, he would shun from the lightning in advance if he could; if not, he had to instant-s.h.i.+ft and count on his luck.
After moving for two hours, Jiang Yi crossed the 50,000-kilometer sea. In estimation, it would not be long for him to safely pa.s.s this lightning region.
His body became relaxed. As long as he could pa.s.s the lightning area and instant-s.h.i.+ft in the sky for a day or two, the demon thearch would never be able to find him no matter how powerful it was.
Roar! Roar! Ji! Ji! Ku! Ku!
However, just at this moment, horrible howls of sea demons suddenly came from the deep sea. Jiang Yi’s expression changed, and he spread his divine senses to the bottom. Immediately, he was alarmed.
Many demonic beasts surged from the bottom. Among them, there were two demon kings. These sea demons weren’t heading straight at him; instead, they wandered in all directions chaotically and appeared to be looking for something.
“Human?”
Jiang Yi’s divine senses alerted a giant sea dragon demon king. It glanced at Jiang Yi with its dark red eyes and swept its tail, transforming into a sharp sword and rus.h.i.+ng to Jiang Yi. Furthermore, a myriad of tier-three sea demons and a seal demon king in the vicinity were alarmed as well and shot rapidly towards Jiang Yi.
“There are so many sea demons over there, too. Is there a Beast Tide happening right now? Why are all the sea demons in the deep sea surging up?”
Jiang Yi was even more frightened after scanning the surroundings with divine senses. The sea demons usually liked to stay in the deep sea, and he was in the shallow region right now. Thunderbolts were also striking down from time to time. Why did all these sea demons come up, unless it was a riot?
“That’s not right. Shouldn’t the sea demons lose their mind and kill one another in a Beast Tide? They are not in turmoil and are probably coming after me.”
Jiang Yi came to his realization and didn’t dare to stay here to fight. However, the sea demons were darting towards him from the sea below in all directions; where could he escape to? Turning his eyes, Jiang Yi clenched his teeth and sprinted to the sea surface.
Lightning and thunder were falling down madly. Though it was not the center of the thunderbolt region, there were still a lot of thunderbolts. Jiang Yi was trying to scare off the demonic beasts with the help of the forces of the thunderbolts.
Actually, he could release the Ma.s.sacre Intent to kill the sea demons, but once the fight broke out, many sea demons around the area would die. The b.l.o.o.d.y smell would attract powerful demon thearchs nearby—or that lion demon thearch. The situation would get worse.
His divine senses were extended to the limit, which quickly swept upwards to determine the trajectory of the lightning. His estimation was not wrong; it was indeed not the center of the lightning. Thunderbolts were striking down from time to time… but in a much lower frequency.
d.a.m.n, what’s wrong with these beasts? Aren’t they afraid of the thunder?
Feeling the demon kings and sea demons getting closer and closer, Jiang Yi cursed in secret. His body transformed into a mad dragon and broke out of the sea. His two legs stepped on the water surface; he moved forward in full speed.
Tsk! Tsk!
Above the sea, the sky was dark, the ma.s.sive wind was roaring, and strong waves were clas.h.i.+ng with one another. In the sky to the left, a thunder dragon whizzed down and struck the sea down below. There were countless sea demons down there, which turned into ashes and sc.r.a.ps because of the thunder dragon.
“These b.a.s.t.a.r.ds won’t give up until I am dead.”
Jiang Yi was at his wits’ end. Such a mighty thunder dragon and such powerful forces of heaven and earth even caused his soul spirit to tremble and palpitate with fear and turned his body limp. However, even though that sea dragon demon king was almost killed by the lightning, it continued to chase after him. Clearly, he was the target.
“Since you are yearning to die, I shall fulfill your dream!”
Jiang Yi was ready to risk everything. The sea dragon was only several kilometers away and might attack him anytime. Who knew what kind of strange sorcery skills it had? He didn’t dare to take any risk and had to release the Ma.s.sacre Intent.
Buzz!
As Jiang Yi’s eyes turned b.l.o.o.d.y red, the endless murderous aura was pouring out, covering a field of five-kilometer square. Any sea demon that was surrounded by the Ma.s.sacre Intent could move no more.
The sea dragon demon king that was just behind Jiang Yi looked every more terrified. Its giant head emerged from the sea surface; it tried to open its mouth as big as possible and said something intermittently, “Human… it is indeed you who killed the son of the Lion Chi Thearch… you are dead. The thearch has ordered all the demon clans in this area to search for the killer. Even if you can fly to the sky and dive into the sea, you… won’t be able to get away.”
