Chapter 1280 - Crazy

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Jiang Yi stayed in Jiang Thearch City for three days before he headed out to the Black Sea. This time, he did not bring a single wife with him. He only brought Jiang Xiaonu and the Death God’s Dense Sea’s Chieftains.

He brought Jiang Xiaonu because he realized that Jiang Xiaonu was in extremely low spirits during his wedding period. He knew in his heart the conflict that Jiang Xiaonu was facing inside, but he had his own inner dilemma. To him, Jiang Xiaonu was only his little sister. From a young age, they grew up as siblings who could only depend on each other. He could not bring himself to see Jiang Xiaonu in any other way.

Since he could not give her what she wanted, Jiang Yi naturally wanted to give her more brotherly love and concern.

This lass was naturally melancholic. She could not get along easily with many other people. Only with him, she smiled brightly and genuinely. If one asked Jiang Yi who his heart hurt the most for, he would not say Su Ruoxue or Yi Chan, but this pitiful maidservant.

Jiang Yi brought many nourishing spirit herbs with him into Death God’s Dense Sea. He even left two of the Chieftains at the entrance to wait for the formidable martial artists who were gathering more spirit herbs for him. Once they were done, the two Chieftains would lead them into Death God’s Dense Sea to meet Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi went in with peace of mind. Yi Chan, Yin Ruobing, Su Ruoxue, Mo Yao’er, and company were being taken care of by the Buddha Thearch, Yin Thearch, Saint Empress, and company. Jiang Thearch City was now the place with the most formidable martial artists in the continent. For this period of time, the Buddha Thearch was to look after the city for him and prevent people from breaking the Big Heaven Wheel Formation.

With Qian Wanguan around, Jiang Thearch City’s matters would not be a source of worry for Jiang Yi. Qian Wanguan was very capable. The four regions of the Jiang Clan aside—even if he was watching over the entire Stellarsky Domain, he would be able to do it well.

Hoo-hoo!

Once again, Jiang Yi entered Death God’s Dense Sea through the huge whirlpool in the Black Sea. This time, Jiang Yi was not as badly affected by it as he was before. He did not let the Chieftain out but traveled in the Black Sea alone. Whenever he met little stone monsters, he was able to crush them into dust almost immediately. His body was extremely strong, and his speed was great. In just one day, he arrived at the Undying Tribe. He did not travel any further but prepared to remain in the tribe to train.

Buzz!

He teleported the tens of Chieftains out and pointed to one of them, saying, “Long Yang, you will be the new Saint Emperor of this continent. However, we have run out of saint beasts’ blood essence. Use the saint beast’s bones to boil soup and improve your own body for now. I have some spirit herbs that can strengthen your body here as well. I’ll also teach you cultivation techniques so that you can become even stronger.”

Long Yang was Long Qu’s grandson. Among the Chieftains, he was not considered very strong. However, Jiang Yi personally made the decision so no one dared to object. Jiang Yi was the first generation of the Saint Lord’s descendants. In Death God’s Dense Sea, he had unparalleled authority.

“Yes, Young Lord!”

Long Yang nodded gravely. Jiang Yi retrieved several spirit herbs for him and gave him several ancient artifacts as well. At the same time, he handed him many more ancient artifacts to be distributed. This time, the Saint Emperor perished in Snow Region after following Jiang Yi out. Twenty other Chieftains’ bones were buried there as well. This caused Jiang Yi to feel endless guilt. From Wu Shang, the Sword Thearch, the Beast Thearch, and Xing Mo’s interspatial rings; he pulled out a few ancient artifacts and joined them together with the ones in the Mystic Divine Palace. Then, he allowed the surviving Chieftains to take their pick.

“Greetings to Saint Emperor!”

The other Chieftain turned to bow down to Long Yang. Jiang Yi waved his hand and asked Long Yang to settle the matters of Death God Continent. He himself pulled out the Mystic Divine Palace and placed it outside Undying Tribe. He was preparing himself for seclusion.

“Xiaonu, while I am in seclusion, will you be bored? Why not I release the restrictions around the Mystic Divine Palace and allow you to go in and out as you please?” Jiang Yi turned to Jiang Xiaonu and asked in a concerned manner as she sat alone in Mystic Thearch Pavilion.

“There is no need!”

Jiang Xiaonu smiled, looking like a blooming lily. She shook her head and said, “I will be happy as long as I can see you. You don’t have to worry about me. Go into seclusion.”

“Alright then!”

Jiang Yi brought Jiang Xiaonu into a side hall. He needed to realize one of the Mystic Thearch’s Heaven Paintings. There were still two more that he had not realized. Yi Chan and Yin Ruobing both realized one each so Jiang Yi knew that both contained supreme dao patterns. He just needed either one of them, and then he could begin thinking about how to fuse all three into an ultimate dao pattern.

After entering the side hall, Jiang Xiaonu sat down cross-legged and faced Jiang Yi. “Young Master, don’t worry about me. I’m going to cultivate as well. I’m going to try and break through the fourth rank of Ink Feather Divine Art.”

“En, don’t push yourself too hard.”

Jiang Yi nodded and said, “Take all things slow. Cultivating cannot be rushed.”

Jiang Xiaonu said nothing in response but only smiled. Jiang Yi finally left her alone and turned to face a Heaven Painting. Yi Chan had realized a supreme dao pattern from this Heaven Painting before. It was a supportive dao pattern, a spatial dao pattern.

Jiang Yi did not ask Yi Chan too much about what the dao pattern was because he would have to find it out himself in order to be able to really realize it. If Yi Chan told Jiang Yi in advance—not only would she be unable to help him, but she might even cause him to arrive at an intersection and ultimately not be able to realize it.

Jiang Yi’s eyes lit up as he focused wholeheartedly on the heaven Painting. At the same time, he cultivated his essence force and refined his soul spirit with the spirit herbs. He wanted both his essence force and his soul spirit to become stronger while time passed.

It was a good thing that Jiang Yi could enter the State of the Union of Heaven and Man. Otherwise, if he attempted to do all three things at the same time without it, he would surely get carried away and suffer Qi deviation.

“Young Master, I will make sure I realize the fourth rank of Ink Feather Divine Art. As long as I do so, I can also achieve True God skills. Then, I can ascend to the Higher Domain and look for Madam with you!” Jiang Xiaonu whispered under her breath before closing her eyes to cultivate.



Time passed extremely quickly. Jiang Yi’s essence force and soul spirit slowly became stronger. In just half a year—while training in an environment that allowed him to improve a hundred thousand times faster, his eighth star sphere seemed about halfway there. Jiang Yi guessed that he would surely be able to have it transformed within the next year.

His soul spirit was improving very quickly as well. His little Fire Dragon Sword had doubled in size, and the energy inside his soul spirit surged as well. The second batch of spirit herbs had already been delivered. With all the soul-spirit-nourishing spirit herbs in Stellarsky Domain in his possession—if Jiang Yi still could not transform his soul spirit, he could look for a way to kill himself.

A pity!

He was still making no improvements in terms of realizing the dao pattern. Half a year had gone, and he had not realized this dao pattern yet. He still had the hardest part—fusing them—to go.

The more time passed, the more anxious Jiang Yi became. As his emotions became more complicated, it became harder for him to realize a new dao pattern. It was a vicious cycle. Jiang Yi knew full well, but he had no way of controlling his own emotions.

Eight months later…!

Jiang Yi opened his eyes, his face a mask of pain. He knew that if he went on this way, he would be finished for sure. He needed to re-adjust his emotions. He took one look at Jiang Xiaonu, who still had her eyes closed, and then decided to teleport out of Mystic Divine Palace.

He gathered the Chieftains of Undying Tribe and told them that if Jiang Xiaonu came out of seclusion, they were to tell her that he was taking a walk around and would return soon enough.

Alone, he headed toward the innermost regions of the mountain. Then, he forced himself to forget everything that was giving him stress and pressure as well as all his worries. He did this as he walked deeper and deeper into the mountain. Inside, he walked several rounds around, not taking note of the direction he was heading in. As long as there was a path, he went ahead. Each time he met a beast, he would kill it.

Just like that, he walked for more than ten days. Suddenly, he came across a very familiar area. He had come to the top of the cliff north of Saint Emperor City. Below was the Void Ancient Path. If he got through the Void Ancient Path, he would make it to Mystic Divine Mountain.

“Void Ancient Path? Meteorite Killing Formation?”

He narrowed his eyes and looked into the white clouds, which were surrounding the cliff. One hour later, his eyes brightened, and he jumped down the cliff immediately. If other people had been watching him, they would surely have thought that Jiang Yi had gone crazy. He did not bring the Mystic Divine Palace with him this time. He would definitely not be able to withstand the last stage of the Meteorite Killing Formation given the state of his own defenses.
