Chapter 1301 - Let Me Borrow Your Head!

“Eh? I’m not inside the hill anymore? I’ve arrived at a plain field?”

Jiang Yi looked around, surprised. Once again, he was in a dilemma. He was completely lost now. What’s more, so much time had already passed. Who knew if that group of Demon-Killing Battle Generals had left already or not? He was not even sure where he should head towards. He randomly picked a direction and started running.

After two hours, he realized that no buildings were around him at all; neither was there any sign of humans or wild beasts. He paused for a while, turned toward the north, and started running again.

“Someone is here!”

After another hour, he felt the ground in front of him vibrate slightly. He immediately threw himself into a random shrub beside him before entering the State of the Union of Heaven and Man. He wanted to focus on sensing the vibrations of the ground.

“Seven people! All of them should be Heaven Gods. There is no movement in the air. I think God-General-level martial artists can all fly.”

Jiang Yi easily figured out these people’s skill levels. Without making a sound or releasing any aura, he remained inside the shrub and fixed his gaze on them.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

From afar, seven figures quickly came into his vision. Each of them was dressed in blue robes and held a black, wooden spear in their hands. They looked panicked as they ran forward as fast as they could. Jiang Yi scanned them, his eyes narrowing. These were all people from Jiyang Tribe.

“Kill!”

He still needed to kill one more person in order to pass his appraisal. Even if he did not need to kill any more people, he would not have shown any mercy. People who were under the Netherworld Realm’s control could not still be considered human. If Jiang Yi had the power, he would kill every such person that he encountered. The Netherworld Realm treated billions of civilians of the Stellarsky Domain as stock to be harvested. They treated Stellarsky Domain as a slaughterhouse. This caused the Netherworld Realm to be an enemy of Jiang Yi.

“Someone is here!”

The seven people who were running forward caught sight of Jiang Yi when they were three kilometers away from him. Immediately, they cried out. Jiang Yi flew out of the shrub but did not charge toward the seven people. Instead, he turned and ran in the opposite direction, panicked.

Although these seven Heaven Gods posed no threat to Jiang Yi, lions needed to use all their energy to capture even one rabbit. He could not afford to be careless. Thus, he acted as if he was running away in fear, so that the other parties would let their guard down.

“Don’t let the news leak. Kill him!”

One of them shouted suddenly. The seven people from Jiyang Tribe immediately chased after Jiang Yi, who was controlling his own speed. Very quickly, the gap between them and Jiang Yi closed up.

“Brat, pledge your allegiance to the almighty Netherworld Thearch.”

An elderly man with a face full of wrinkles smiled, summoning a black light. Jiang Yi had not even summoned his Mystic Divine Armor. The black light entered his body easily, causing a corpse aura to surge toward and invade his soul spirit.

Bang!

While flying, Jiang Yi suddenly fell to the ground. He did not use his Xiaozhuan character to get rid of the corpse aura. Thus, his entire body became engulfed in black gas. It felt as though he was being controlled by the corpse aura.

“Hmph!”

The remaining people did not shoot anymore attacks at Jiang Yi. Instead, they surrounded him and waited for the corpse aura to take control of him. They started to let their guards down. After all, Jiang Yi gave them a feeling that he was far too weak to take all of them on.

Buzz!

The Xiaozhuan character suddenly appeared in Jiang Yi’s mind, purifying the corpse aura. The Fire Dragon Sword appeared in his hand, and balls of blue flames shot out from his Fire Spirit Pearl. The moment the flames appeared, the six people around him and the elder not far away from him widened their eyes. All of them retreated in fear.

Swish!

Jiang Yi steered tens of wind dragons, which dragged seven or eight balls of blue flames toward the six people. Before the flames even came close to them, their bodies turned to ice. By the time the flames hit them, their bodies burned up at a terrifying speed. In just two or three seconds, the six of their backs were all burned raw. A huge hole appeared in front of each of their corpses.

“Lord, please spare me!”

The elderly man wanted to run away, but when he saw that the six of his companions died almost immediately, he decided not to try running away anymore. Instead, he fell on both of his knees and shouted for mercy. “Lord, as long as you don’t kill me, I promise to become your slave. I will be your dog from now on.”

“Uh—”

Jiang Yi stiffened. He did not even bother to look at the elderly man. Instead, he focused on the burned corpses. He did not think that the flames would be that powerful. These six people were not even given a chance to retaliate. Killing them was as easy as killing a lamb.

This is good stuff. Too bad I have so little of it. Each time I use it, I have less in my Fire Spirit Pearl left.

Jiang Yi exclaimed in his heart. A few more balls of flames were gathered in his Fire Spirit Pearl. He took huge steps toward the elderly man, locking his gaze on him. Jiang Yi shouted, “Where in Jiyang Tribe are you from?”

“Lord, how do you know we are from Jiyang Tribe?”

The elderly man was astonished. Once he saw the cold look on Jiang Yi’s face, he quickly replied, “We are from the northwest region. We are seventy thousand kilometers away in this direction.”

“Very good!”

Jiang Yi nodded, and the flames in his Fire Spirit Pearl disappeared. Then, he struck down his Fire Dragon Sword hard, activating the Divinity Slayer. In a cold voice, he said, “Let me borrow your head.”

Boom!

Since the attack came at such a close distance, the elderly man did not even have time to put up his defenses. He flew back at once from the impact. There was no divine artifact battle armor on his body, but his physical body was still quite strong. Thus, he was merely injured by this blow. Jiang Yi kept striking the Fire Dragon Sword downward until the man finally died. Then, Jiang Yi cut off his head and retrieved the divine core from within. At the same time, he collected the remaining six men’s divine core. At last, he headed in the northwest direction as fast as he could.

“You have to wait for me.”

A few hours had already passed. The Demon-Killing Battle Generals must have finished their mission by now. Jiang Yi prayed in his heart while he ran.

Two hours later, he finally arrived at Jiyang Tribe. However, Jiyang Tribe was already completely destroyed. Not one person remained there. Jiang Yi did not know where to go next. He charged into the huge mountain, toward the place where the Divine Boat was parked.

The Divine Boat was not far from where he was. In two hours, Jiang Yi arrived at the region. From afar, he saw the Divine Boat floating in mid-air. Immediately, he waved his hands and shouted out in joy, “Lord, wait for me! I’m back!”

Buzz!

The Divine Boat lit up, and the gate opened. Zhao Tiezhu’s mountain-like body appeared in the gate, surprise evident on his face. He looked at Jiang Yi coolly and even used his divine senses to scan him several times. He nodded and said, “Mm, you are not being controlled by Netherworld aura. Brat, have you completed your core-collection mission for your appraisal?”

Jiang Yi halted and cupped his hands. “I don’t know if my mission is completed either. I killed more than ten people from Jiyang Tribe and obtained more than ten divine cores. However, I don’t think there are enough human heads.”

“That’s alright. The divine cores will suffice!”

Zhao Tiezhu’s muscular face broke into a grin, but he still looked ferocious. Nodding, he said, “Brat, the captain has returned already. If I had not asked for a favor, you would have to walk back now. Hehe, Brat, let me see those divine cores. I have not chosen the wrong person this time.”

Jiang Yi retrieved the divine cores and felt Zhao Tiezhu’s divine senses scanning them. Once again, the man grinned. “Alright, come up. You’ve passed your appraisal.”

Swish!

Jiang Yi quickly bounced up as Zhao Tiezhu flew further in. He reached out his huge hand and looked at the group of Demon-Killing Battle Generals. “Brothers, this new man has returned. He has completed his appraisal. Come, come, come, each of you, give up ten divine roots. Once we get back, go and sleep with any woman you want. Each of you can choose one, hahaha.”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Jiang Yi came in and felt ten surprised pairs of eyes land on him. When they started the war, they already sensed Jiang Yi was being chased down by people from Jiang Yi. They thought that he died long ago, considering how much time had passed since he left. They did not think that he would make it back alive. He even managed to pass the appraisal?

“Let’s go back to Divine Eagle Tribe!”

The team captain in the front cabin emerged and scanned Jiang Yi from head to toe. Emotionlessly, he waved his hand. The Divine Boat lit up once again, and they flew toward the north.

Hoo-hoo!

Jiang Yi sat cross-legged on the ground, his face a mask of joy. He was lucky that Zhao Tiezhu was on his side this time, or else he would have had a hard time finding his way back to Divine Eagle Tribe.
