Chapter 1257: Meteorite-Killing Formation!

The consummation with Yi Chan had transformed Jiang Yi’s seventh star sphere unexpectedly; Jiang Yi became more confident of himself. The stronger his essence force was, the more elevated all his attributes would be as well. His body would also become stronger under the nourishment of the power of the stars.

However, after this round, Jiang Yi did not have any energy left to look for Yin Ruobing. That electric arc had stimulated and made his whole body go numb; it took him one full hour before he recovered. Yi Chan had long fallen asleep from exhaustion. The two cuddled and slept for almost an entire day before they woke up.

“Ah ya ya!”

Yi Chan woke up first and suddenly thought of something, jumping out of bed. She hurriedly washed up and got dressed. Seeing Jiang Yi lying on the bed watching her put on her clothes, she suddenly became shy and angry and said, “Majesty Father, Grandfather, and the rest are waiting for us; what are you still waiting for?”

“Oh, oh!”

Jiang Yi finally recalled and felt embarrassed. A group of old folks was waiting for him to finish consummating the marriage, and here he was, sleeping.

After sleeping for almost the whole day, Jiang Yi felt very energetic. He tidied up, got dressed, and headed outside. Yi Chan, however, refused to head out just yet. He could only go to see Yin Ruobing first. However, Yin Ruobing was also shy and embarrassed; Jiang Yi could only teleport outside first.

The dinner banquet had long ended. The constitution of the people here was very strong; they could not seem to get drunk. Jiang Yi unexpectedly realized that many Chieftains had been gathered; there were at least sixty of them. They were all well-dressed and—along with the Saint Emperor, the Buddha Thearch and others—waiting for him inside the castle.

“Long Qu, why have you gathered so many people?”

Jiang Yi’s gaze looked towards the Saint Emperor and asked. Long Qu answered, “Since Young Lord is heading out to handle something major, I naturally have to lend a hand. There are a hundred and eight Chieftains on this continent; I have gathered the strongest sixty. The remaining dozens would look after all the people on the continent. I have asked these sixty to follow you out! En… I will be heading out as well!”

“This…”

Jiang Yi was shocked. While he was elated, he was also worried.

He was happy; with this group of people’s assistance, they would have a much greater chance of defeating the North Thearch and Xing Mo. The Saint Emperor, in particular, was comparable to a nine-star formidable martial artist while these Chieftains were equivalent to Demigods. Sixty Demigods were a very powerful asset. However, he was also worried because… if he brought them along, the weight on his shoulders would be even heavier. If all of them died in battle, he would be uneasy for the rest of his life.

The Saint Emperor saw the concern in Jiang Yi’s eyes and said very seriously, “Young Lord, don’t be wishy-washy. We all volunteered. If it wasn’t for you, the entire continent would still be slaves to that old fiend; we want to do our part as well! Furthermore… if it wasn’t for the Saint Lord, the entire continent would have long been destroyed. Now that you need our help, how could we stand by and do nothing?”

The Buddha Thearch and others were all silent. Although they really hoped that Jiang Yi would bring the Saint Emperor and others out, this matter was out of their hands. Only Jiang Yi could decide.

“Alright!”

Jiang Yi glanced over at everyone, nodded, and said, “I will do my best to bring all of you back. As long as I am alive, I will forever protect the citizens of this continent.”

“Many thanks to the Young Lord!”

The Saint Emperor bowed slightly as Jiang Yi, and the Buddha Thearch and company exchanged looks. Jiang Yi shouted, “Is everyone ready? Let’s move out!”

“En!”

The Buddha Thearch and others nodded. However, the Night Empress suddenly sent a voice transmission: “Jiang Yi, your sister is still sleeping in the room; go take a look.”

“Xiaonu?”

Jiang Yi then realized that Jiang Xiaonu was still outside. He hurriedly headed to her room and saw that Xiaonu was still not sober; she was hugging Xiao Fei and sleeping soundly.

“This lass…”

They were about to leave, and Jiang Yi had many things on his plate. He carried Xiaonu and Xiao Fei and walked out as he waved and said, “Let’s go. All to enter the Mystic Divine Palace. I will attempt the Void Ancient Path.”

Everyone trooped out as Jiang Yi had instructed. The Saint Emperor had long arranged everything. As long as no one from the outside came into the Death God mystic realm, there would not be any trouble. Jiang Yi sent everyone into the Mystic Divine Palace and, under the watchful eye of everyone in the city, dashed towards the north.

Pong-pong!

The mountains to the north were very precarious. However, Jiang Yi’s body was very strong at this moment. A slight movement from his body made him dash forward a distance; his speed was not that much slower than the Saint Emperor’s. With ten saint beasts’ blood essence and the Heavenly Thunder True Body’s powers—combined with the transformation by the powers of the stars, Jiang Yi’s physical body had advanced to a terrifyingly advanced stage.

Roar! Roar!

From the mountain forest far away, a huge lion pounced forward. Jiang Yi did not even reduce his speed or take out his Fire Dragon Sword. He just directly punched it.

Hoo-hoo!

Jiang Yi was frightened by the power of his own fist. He had actually created tiny cracks in the spatial zone. The spatial zone here was so stable; besides his Divinity Slayer, normal attacks should not have been able to create cracks in the spatial zone.

This meant—Jiang Yi’s physical body strength could more or less match up to the Divinity Slayer’s!

Boom!

That huge lion had endured one strike from Jiang Yi, and its huge head had immediately splintered as its body rebounded. It heavily crashed into a mountain nearby. Jiang Yi examined his own fist; there was no damage to it at all. He said, astonished, “That’s insane. My bare fist is now comparable to an eight-star formidable martial artist’s strength?”

After feeling shocked momentarily, Jiang Yi quickly relaxed. The ten saint beasts were supposed to be given to the next Saint Emperor; he had drunk all their blood essence instead. Every Saint Emperor’s body could rival an eight-star martial artist. Furthermore, Jiang Yi had been transformed by the Heavenly Thunder True Body’s power of thunderbolts; it was normal that his powers were such now.

“Go!”

Jiang Yi sped forward with his fastest speed. Within a few dozen leaps, he had reached the mountain peak. Though many wild beasts wanted to chase after him, none could match his speed!

“The Void Ancient Path?”

Jiang Yi stood on top of the cliff and stared into the bottomless pit. A white mist and clouds were circling the cliff as Jiang Yi’s face was full of confidence. Possessing such a strong physical body; if Jiang Yi could not pass through the Void Ancient Path, he had nothing else to say.

Swish!

Jiang Yi took two looks and, without hesitation, jumped down the cliff. His body fell speedily. When he landed among the white mist, his body flashed; and he disappeared.

“This is the Void Ancient Path?”

Jiang Yi felt the flash of white light as his body entered a pitch-black tunnel. This tunnel was huge; it was ten-thousand-foot wide. Jiang Yi’s descending speed was also very fast. There were no restraints on his body; he fell like a sharp sword.

Suddenly—

An earth-splitting screeching noise could be heard from below. Following that, a dozen-odd black shadows rose. They were extremely fast; Jiang Yi did not manage to get a good look and was already being attacked by them.

Bang, bang, bang!

The black shadows were actually small rocks. These rocks incessantly smashed onto Jiang Yi’s body; they all exploded. There were a few that were smashed by Jiang Yi’s fists. When all the rocks had been destroyed, Jiang Yi massaged his back that was stinging slightly, nodded, and said, “The meteorite killing formation is indeed exceptional. If one did not have strong defensive abilities and were hit by these rocks, they would be smashed to death. Mystic Divine Armor, Thousand Thearch Shield, come out!”

Following Jiang Yi’s command, the black Mystic Divine Armor appeared on his body while the Thousand Thearch Shield also materialized. Jiang Yi controlled the shield to encircle his body and be prepared for the next wave of attack.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

As expected, after only about thirty seconds, dozens of black shadows shot forth from the left and right. Their speed was so fast; Jiang Yi could not make out what they were. At high speed, these rocks’ impacting force was terrifying. Jiang Yi raised both his fists as he attacked a huge rock to his right. At the same time, the Thousand Thearch Shield blocked the rock to the left.

Boom, boom, boom, boom…

The Thousand Thearch Shield did not disappoint Jiang Yi. It had completely blocked the entire huge rock to the left. The rock to the right had also been smashed into smaller pieces which then landed on his Mystic Divine Armor. Jiang Yi’s Mystic Divine Armor radiated a black light and blocked all the remaining rock pieces. Jiang Yi merely felt a slight tremor.

“Damn!”

Jiang Yi was just about to say that the meteorite killing formation wasn’t that strong when he was scared witless in the next moment. There were hundreds of small rocks shooting towards him from all directions. While the Thousand Thearch Shield could block one side, Jiang Yi had to use his body and the Mystic Divine Armor to block all the other sides. Furthermore, these small meteorite rocks were becoming bigger; one was even thirty-foot wide!
