Chapter 1115 - : Perfect Fusion of the Astral Winds

Jiang Yi’s meditation this time round was a lot more relaxed. Perhaps the lady sleeping on his thigh made him feel a sense of ease, or maybe it was the light fragrance from Yin Ruobing’s body making him feel very comfortable. The effects of this meditation were much better.

Although the effects were better—if some things could not be realized, they could not be realized regardless. The fusion of the astral winds was even harder than a dao pattern. As every astral wind had a different body, it was easy to gather them together; to make them utterly fused together was very difficult. This was the same logic with two ropes: it was easy to tangle them up, but they were two strings of a rope after all. They would not meld into one.

“What can I do to merge them? Or could it be the astral winds cannot be fused? What I saw back then was an illusion created by the Mystic Thearch?”

Jiang Yi’s mind was full of doubts. He recalled what he saw during the Trials of Wind and Fire and rejected this thought. “The astral winds had indeed fused. I should still have the fused astral winds inside me. This is a real fusion and not just an illusion!

“Astral winds that could meld?”

Jiang Yi thought about this, and suddenly, something triggered in him. He brought forth the merged astral winds in his ninth star sphere and circulated them in his meridians, studying them in detail.

After studying for a while, his soul spirit started to tremble; he had thought of an excellent idea.

Since he did not know how to fuse them, he could try to bring them apart. If he managed to separate that small amount of fused astral winds, he could then unravel the way to fuse them!

If one thought of something, one should do it.

Jiang Yi hurriedly closed his eyes and gently placed Yin Ruobing on the grass patch. He then headed to a small hill not far away. The astral winds were too dangerous, and he was afraid of losing control and hurting Yin Ruobing.

Yin Ruobing had really fallen asleep this time. She did not wake up. Jiang Yi looked over at her from a small hill a few hundred feet away and saw that she was sleeping soundly. He then relaxed and entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man. He continued releasing the astral winds, trying to find a way to separate them.

Tsk! Tsk!

He brought forth a wisp of the fused astral winds. As these astral winds had been absorbed into his body, it had become his; and he could easily control them. He used his mind to manage the astral winds and slowly tried to separate and bring them apart.

However, these fused astral winds were too tightly intertwined. Jiang Yi thought of many methods but couldn’t find a way to take them apart. Finally, he decided on the most violent approach: separating them by force!

Tsk! Tsk!

He used a few other wisps of astral winds to forcefully attack the wisp of fused astral winds. He tried to untangle the latter and—at the same time—locked in on them, trying to find the secret behind them.

“This…”

What shocked him was that after the astral winds were broken up, countless very densely packed small astral winds were actually inside. It felt as if this one wisp of astral winds was made up of countless small astral winds, just like how a strand of hair was formed by countless small hair fragments.

“This is it! I understand, I finally understand!” Breaking before forming. If I wanted to fuse the astral winds, I had to first destroy them and turn them into small fragments before allowing them to reform and automatically fuse together. Hahahaha…”

Jiang Yi laughed crazily as he looked to the skies. He had finally found the answer to this problem that had been troubling him for so long. He immediately released many astral winds and made them attack each other, transforming them into numerous fragments of energy. He then used the Nameless Divine Art to quickly absorb them.

Something amazing happened. When those fragments of astral winds entered his meridians and into the ninth star sphere, they automatically started to fuse and became wisps of perfectly fused astral winds. They had broken and formed again.

“Alright!”

Jiang Yi’s soul spirit was extremely excited and kept on releasing astral winds. He quickly let the astral winds attack each other, formed fragments of energy and absorbed them again as they then completely fused together.

“Uh…”

In the near distance, Yin Ruobing was shaken awake. She saw that Jiang Yi’s face was very agitated and felt the space fluctuations around him. Her eyes lit up. It seemed as if Jiang Yi had a great breakthrough. If not, he would not be so out of character.

“He is indeed a prodigy. His breakthrough speed is becoming faster and faster. If he was born among the Nine Thearch Clans, he would probably already be a six- or seven-star martial expert; even being an eight-star martial expert would not be ludicrous!”

Yin Ruobing smiled slightly, being proud of her man. Any genius that managed to rise up with the help of one’s clan was not a true genius in Yin Ruobing’s eyes. Men like Jiang Yi who depended on themselves, single-handedly killing their way forward were the true geniuses.

Jiang Yi was fusing the astral winds very quickly; he actually didn’t need to do it himself. After the fragmented astral winds entered the ninth star sphere, they would automatically fuse. He just needed to continuously send his astral winds out and make them attack each other, and after they have been blown into bits, he absorbed them once again. He was just like a circular machine, reducing the amount of astral winds in his ninth star sphere as they were being fused.

Although his ninth star sphere contained a lot of astral winds, he only took a little more than a day to completely fuse all the astral winds. The amount of astral winds in his ninth star sphere had indeed been reduced significantly, but Jiang Yi did not mind this at all. At this moment, the amount of astral winds inside was sufficient for him to use for a couple of months. Outside the continent in the high skies, there was an unlimited amount of astral winds; he just had to absorb more once he depleted his supply.

Tsk! Tsk!

After the last wisp of astral winds had been fused, Jiang Yi laughed out loud and flew up into the sky, sending out his astral winds with one hand and then using them to form astral wind blades. He then struck them on a mountain peak in the distance. His astral wind blades were different from perfectly fused astral winds and were just tangled together like hemp. Hence, although the astral winds were perfectly fused, they could still congeal like astral wind blades; the two were not in conflict with each other.

“Tsk—”

There was no explosion but only a slight sound of cracking. The mountain peak was sliced without using too much of his astral winds. That mountain peak quickly slid down and collapsed, causing tremors and generating dust clouds as it impacted the ground.

“Ruobing, have you rested enough?”

Jiang Yi was very contented as he nodded his head, his gaze looking towards Yin Ruobing. She nodded as her jade-green battle armor and her God Shooter Bow appeared, and she flew towards Jiang Yi.

“Go!”

Jiang Yi’s confidence had increased a hundred-fold. With the fused astral winds, there should not be much trouble breaking through the Evil Spirit Ridge. Furthermore, his defensive ability had been greatly raised as well. He figured that She Fei’s Heaven Wheel of Ruin would also not be able to slice through his Astral Winds Divine Shield now.

Swish!

The two of them flew straight into another mountain. After merely a few dozens of kilometers, they saw a one-eyed lizard rushing towards them. Jiang Yi did not even use his Divine Sound Heaven Skill this time or release his Astral Winds Divine Shield. He held onto Yin Ruobing with one hand and casually sent out an astral wind blade with the other, sending it flying towards the demonic beast.

Tsk! Tsk!

The one-eyed lizard was sliced in half with ease. As the astral wind blades were not visible, it felt as if with a casual wave of Jiang Yi’s hand, the huge demonic beast in the distance had been split into half.

“Wow!”

Yin Ruobing was astonished and said, overjoyed, “Jiang Yi, your attack power has at least increased many folds! It should now rival that of a six-star martial expert.”

“Keke!”

Jiang Yi smiled lightly and said, “A six-star martial expert is not the goal; my enemy is a nine-star expert. There is still a long way to go. Additionally, only if I become a nine-star martial expert would your Majesty Father accept me. No… as I am from Sin Island, perhaps that would not be sufficient. I have to be as strong as the Mystic Thearch was that year, suppressing all the heroes of this world; then, the Yin Clan would really accept me.”

Yin Ruobing smiled sweetly—her eyes filled with light, nodded heavily, and said, “Ruobing will wait with anticipation.”
