Chapter 1193: Divine Artifact Battle Armor

On Xing Mengwan’s command, the nine Demigods of the Heaven Nether Sect started moving. This time, however, the array formation changed again. It was circular now. All their bodies lit up. The man right behind pushed his essence force into the body of the person in front of him, who then gathered all his essence force and pushed it into the person in front of him. At last, everybody’s essence force gathered into Xing Mengwan’s body.

At the same time that Xing Mengwan gave the command, the Demigods who had been shooting toward outward in all directions stopped in between Xing Mengwan and Jiang Yi. There were three Demigods; each of them only having six-star powers. The three of them did not seem to fear death in the least. Instead, they charged toward Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi activated his killing machine—there was no way he was going to hold back now. It looked like the human army would not back down if Jiang Yi did not kill at least a few people today. If the war began, many more human formidable martial artists would perish. If Ao Lu went all-out, at least a million people would die. Jiang Yi had never doubted how terrifying this seven-hundred-thousand-year-old monster could be.

In fact, Jiang Yi set his mind on killing Xing Mengwan. There was one important thing he had in common with Xiaonu—he felt a strange discomfort toward Xing Mengwan. For some reason, he hated her to his bones.

This feeling was extremely strange. She was a beautiful woman who carried herself well and led countries and cities. Any man would be moved on seeing her. What’s more, he did not hate people easily.

Jiang Yi liked to count on his own instinct when doing things. The Heaven Nether Sect was the leader of the Ten Concealed Great Sects. Naturally, it would be even scarier than the Heaven Nether Sect. Yet, he could not afford to think too much. He had to kill first!

“Die—”

He roared out loud. The Fire Dragon Sword was ready to strike, and the Divinity Slayer had been released. Three fire dragons charged up into the sky. At the same time, the three Demigods struck Jing Yi. There was a bright blade light, a terrifying Hand Seal, and a golden beam of light.

The Fire Dragons were very real—they were not phantoms at all. The fiery red light on top of the dragons kept spinning, looking like they were formed out of molten lava. The Fire Dragons were getting faster and faster. They looked for targets on their own and cut through the sky, their auras alone frightening many Heaven Monarch and demons. Many Heaven Monarchs and demons nearby ran for their lives, their faces a mask of fright.

Tsk! Tsk!

The three Fire Dragons collided with the attacks of the three Demigods at once. What shocked countless people was that there was no explosive sound or any impact on the collision. Instead, the three attacks from the Demigods were swallowed effortlessly. The attacks dissipated into the air without much commotion and without much damage done to the Fire Dragons as well. The onlookers began to tremble uncontrollably.

“Is this a divine spiritual attack? Has Jiang Yi achieved the might of the Mystic Thearch?”

One of the Tang Clan’s Demigods shouted out. He watched as the three Fire Dragons swallowed the three Demigods. Without looking, he knew that not even the bones of the three Demigods remained.

Boom!

Indeed, three explosions quickly followed. The three Demigods’ divine shields fell apart, and their bodies were reduced to dust. Even their bones were gone. In the middle of the explosion, a huge hole appeared. A terrifying power spread outward in all directions, causing many Heaven Monarchs and demons to fly up into the air while trying to escape. Huge waves appeared in the sea below them, crashing from a great distance.

“Jiang Yi is not that powerful—he’s not even a Demigod yet!”

Tang Shenji’s expression hardened. He explained, “His total battle power is comparable to that of a nine-star martial artist now. He realized the Mystic Thearch’s nine-star Divinity Slayer. In addition to his divine sword, his powers are nine-star! At such a young age, he managed to realize a nine-star dao pattern. This talent is comparable to the Mystic Thearch’s. It’s a pity that he ended up on the wrong path.”

“Isn’t the Mystic Thearch’s divine artifact the Mystic Divine Saber? When did it become a sword?” The Demigods of the Tang Clan asked. Some of them were confused. “Clan Head, what should we do? Should we act? Or should we go and kill Ao Lu?”

“Don’t do anything for now. The North Thearch, Battle Thearch, Evil Thearch, and Beast Thearch are already acting. They won’t miss us!”

Tang Shenji shook his head and said, “Let’s keep an eye on the situation first. We don’t want to anger Jiang Yi. If he gets angry and goes mad, he—together with that lass and little fox—would cause a significant group of us to perish here.”

The Evil Thearch, North Thearch, Battle Thearch, Beast Thearch, and Sword Thearch were indeed acting now. The three Demigods who had been killed earlier were from the Wu Clan.

Many Demigods from the other clans were angered as well. Jiang Yi wanted to stop them from rising to fame so they naturally wanted to get rid of him. If they did not kill Jiang Yi today, they would have to submit to his power in the future. If Jiang Yi did not feel good on any particular day, they would suffer for sure. The Nine Thearch Clans had ruled the East Imperial Continent for seven hundred thousand years. They would not tolerate it if they had to submit to someone else.

Jiang Yi was aware that the Demigods were coming after him, but he was not in the least bit concerned. His body turned into rainbow lights as he rushed toward Xing Mengwan. The Fire Dragon Sword was once again ready to strike. Jiang Yi was ready to release the Divinity Slayer once more. He was confident that his attack would kill Xing Mengwan and at least half of the people with her!

Swish! Swish!

Jiang Xiaonu was moving as well. She turned into a phantom and rushed toward the Demigods of the Wu Clan, She Clan, Tu Clan, and Jian Clan. Jiang Yi’s voice transmission told her to change directions and stop the Demigods around him from coming any closer. He needed space to strike Xing Mengwan. Before she could act on the transmission, she received another message from Zhan Wushuang, telling her to avoid killing the Demigods of the Zhan Clan if she could. After all, they were his family.

Jiang Xiaonu had not yet attacked the North Thearch, Battle Thearch, Evil Thearch, and the others. She chose instead to go for the six- and seven-star Demigods. She moved way too fast. The Demigods barely had time to blink before a pair of green claws appeared right in front of their eyes. They did not even have time to strike in defense. Their divine shields were broken, and their heads were torn apart. They died immediately.

“Ignore this lass. Kill Jiang Yi first!”

The North Thearch saw that the Beast Thearch, Sword Thearch, and the others were tempted to attack Jiang Xiaonu out of rage so he cried out urgently. There were people all around them, and Jiang Xiaonu was moving too fast. If they were not careful enough, they might not only fail to get her but also injure their own people.

“Keke!”

They watched as Jiang Yi got closer and closer. Xing Mengwan did not panic at all; neither did she attack him. Instead, she raised both of her hands and waved them around in mid-air, drawing a semicircle. A layer of rainbow light appeared, engulfing her and ten others with her. The layer of light did not exude any powerful auras. It looked instead like a beautiful bubble. The sight of the colors of the rainbow bouncing off the layer of light was breathtaking.

Xing Mengwan began to dance. Her body twisted and turned. She looked beyond breathtaking. In fact, she looked just like a fairy dancing in the garden. The scene was captivating. Nobody wanted to interrupt it.

“Die—”

Jiang Yi’s heart was hard as stone. He did not waver in the least. Once again, he released the Divinity Slayer. Three Fire Dragons made out of molten lava charged toward the layer of rainbow light with a ferocious and destructive force.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

There were three deafening explosions. The three Dragons fell to pieces, and so did the layer of rainbow light. The nine Demigods spat out a mouthful of blood. A beautiful white armor appeared around Xing Mengwan’s body. She did not even flinch from the impact. Instead, the fiery red whip in her hand flew toward Jiang Yi like a venomous snake. They wrapped around Jiang Yi’s body in the chaos.

At that moment, the North Thearch, Battle Thearch, Evil Thearch, Beast Thearch, and Sword Thearch rushed over. Seeing that Jiang Yi had been captured, their eyes lit up a million times. All of them released their strongest attacks, ready to kill Jiang Yi with a single move.

What a terrifying battle formation!

Jiang Yi was astonished. His strongest attack could not kill one person? In fact, Xing Mengwan did not even retreat a single step? His gaze locked in on the white armor around Xing Mengwan’s body, his expression unchanging. From this battle armor, he felt the same aura that he felt in the Mystic Divine Armor.

This white battle armor was a divine artifact!
