Chapter 1164: Night Sea
Using Heaven Evasion from the Beast Thearch City to the Buddha Region would require more than half a month. If they went by non-stop teleportation, they would only require one or two days. However, Jiang Yi could not teleport. He could not leave the Mystic Divine Palace. If he was ambushed by the North Thearch, the Beast Thearch, or others; the consequences would be disastrous.
Hence, Jiang Yi used Heaven Evasion for a short while before letting Li Feiyu and the others bring Yi Chan and head back to the Buddha Region first; he would slowly use Heaven Evasion and follow behind them. If Li Feiyu and company were to head over, at least that would buy the Li Clan some time. Once Jiang Yi rushed there, the situation would be a lot easier to handle.
Yi Chan and company left in a hurry as Jiang Yi decided to use Heaven Evasion in a straight line; he did not try to search for Jiang Yunhai and the rest anymore. From the events that had taken place in the Evil Thearch City and the Beast Thearch City, it was evident that the mastermind was only making use of Jiang Yi; the mastermind had no intention of releasing Jiang Yunhai and company.
Furthermore, even if Jiang Yi wanted to go and investigate, he would not be able to find anything. Even the Beast Thearch had failed. It was evident of how meticulous the mastermind was in planning this whole series of events. Jiang Yi would not be able to do anything on his own; he could only wait for the Tang Clan and the other great family clans to find leads.
As long as Jiang Yi was still useful—as long as Jiang Yi did not die, Jiang Yunhai and company were safe. Jiang Yi also didn’t want to be led around by the nose and becoming someone else’s tool. Furthermore, Jiang Yi was indebted to Yi Chan while the Buddha Thearch had saved his life before; Jiang Yi could not ignore the situation facing the Yi Clan.
With the Mystic Divine Palace using Heaven Evasion in a straight line, Jiang Yi did not want to care about anything else. He went to pay a visit to Mo Yao’er and Su Ruoxue and then started to go into seclusion and cultivate. He desperately needed to raise his strength. The mastermind behind everything this time was incredibly powerful; even if he managed to find out who it was—based on his current strength, he was definitely not going to be able to kill that person.
For example—if he was sure the mastermind was Ao Lu, could he kill Ao Lu? That was wishful thinking!
Jiang Yi went to one of the side halls next to the Mystic Thearch Pavilion. There were three huge Heaven Paintings there. These were drawn by the Mystic Thearch personally; the strokes were much stronger than Jiang Yi’s. They were even stronger than the Buddha Thearch’s. At this moment, Jiang Yi was observing the first painting, the ‘Night Sea’.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis ‘Night Sea’ painting was very simple; there was only a huge sea in the painting. The sea was very calm, and there weren’t any waves. Far away in the distance was a small sea island with two birds circling it. There was a small dinghy in front of the island. There was an elder in the dinghy; only his frail back could be seen. There was also a moon in the sky, half of it hidden behind some dark clouds. Besides that, there was nothing else in the painting. Jiang Yi also didn’t feel like there was any special dao pattern presence in it.
However, anyone that stood in front of this painting would probably feel their hearts palpitating as if they couldn’t breathe. A huge pressure seemed to surge out from the painting, making one’s heart beat faster and agitating one’s soul spirit.
“This sea is obvious very calm; there is actually nothing that makes one feel pressured. Why is it that people would sense fear? Could it be that there is some powerful demonic beast hidden in the sea?”
Jiang Yi stared at the painting and looked closely. However, he searched the entire painting but couldn’t find any demonic beasts. There were none on the island either. The two birds in the sky were so frail that they looked pitiful. The elder on the dinghy had a bent back and held a fishing net in his hands. He wore shabby clothing, and he looked like he was a fisherman. Jiang Yi searched the entire painting but still couldn’t find out where that pressure was coming from.
Besides that inexplicable pressure, there was not a single dao pattern presence in the painting. Hence, in order to realize the dao pattern embedded in this painting, one could only start tracing from the pressure emanating from the painting.
Yin Ruobing walked over and saw Jiang Yi frowning as he stood and looked at the painting for two full hours, not even moving once. She gently said, “I have looked at this painting for the longest time. However, I cannot find any clues. Conversely, for the other two paintings, I have managed to realize some things. Jiang Yi, maybe you want to take a look at those two paintings?”
“No, this painting was hung here on its own; the other two paintings were hung together. Furthermore, this painting is situated to the north. There is a saying that the north is second to none; hence, this painting is the most valuable. The dao pattern inside it is also very terrifying!”
Jiang Yi did not look at Yin Ruobing. He waved his hand and said, “You should go and decipher more. I will enter the State of the Union of Heaven and Man to examine this painting in detail. After I have deciphered the dao pattern in this painting, I just have to congeal my god spirit before I can break through to become a Demigod.”
Yin Ruobing nodded lightly and did not disturb Jiang Yi anymore. She sat cross-legged in front of one of the other paintings. Jiang Yi also sat cross-legged and entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man. Under this condition, his ability to detect and sense was extremely sharp. It only took him five minutes, and he had already received something.
“I’m wrong, I’m wrong! It’s not a demonic beast or anything else; the pressure is coming from the sea!”
At this moment, Jiang Yi felt as if he had entered the painting itself. He also instinctively felt that the source of the pressure came from the calm sea itself. However, what he could not understand was why there was such pressure coming from such a peaceful sea? Why did it give people a sense of danger?
The present sea was just like a quiet young lady; it would only give people a feeling of gentleness and satisfaction. The moon in the sky was giving light to the sea region as the sea breeze gradually blew. The elder was idly fishing as birds were playing in the sky; no matter how one looked at it, it was a beautiful scene. How could it be that it gave people a sense of suffocating fear?
If he couldn’t understand, he would continue to think. The journey to the Buddha Region was going to take more than half a month anyway. Some things could not be rushed. He might as well quiet his heart and try to realize the dao pattern, cultivate his essence force, and increase his strength.
Jiang Yi was a very stubborn person. He refused to try and decipher the other two paintings, wholeheartedly focusing on this one. He believed his gut: the dao pattern in this painting was definitely at least a three-star one; it could even be a five-, six-, or seven-star dao pattern.
Time passed away like the flowing water. In a twinkling of an eye, half a month had passed.
Jiang Yi still had gained nothing. He was also getting a little nauseous from staring at the painting. Anyone who stared at a painting for more than half a month and—though there was obviously something to be gained, he ultimately could not fathom it—would feel like going crazy.
“Hehe, I finally understand, this is what it means. This is actually a five-star dao pattern? Hehe, I can finally break through to the Demigod Realm!”
Suddenly, Yin Ruobing cried out with joy. Her eyes had turned into crescent moons as her whole body was emanating her happiness. Jiang Yi was startled by her, and he opened his eyes to look at Yin Ruobing. The latter ran over and hugged him, shouting with elation, “Jiang Yi, I finally realized this dao pattern, I have gotten this five-star dao pattern! I will become a Demigod really soon.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm “Impressive, you are even more impressive than me. If you can break through to the Demigod Realm, you will be the number one genius on the continent!”
Jiang Yi raised his thumb, and Yin Ruobing smiled even brighter. However, if Yin Ruobing could break through to the Demigod Realm, she could indeed rival the likes of Zhan Tianlei and She Fei. She was also two years younger than Jiang Yi.
“How is that possible... you are always making me happy.”
Yin Ruobing was a little embarrassed as she hid in Jiang Yi’s embrace. That ladylike manner made Jiang Yi palpitate with excitement. However, Yin Ruobing felt Jiang Yi’s arousal and hurriedly jumped up. She glared at Jiang Yi and said, “Do not misbehave. I want to realize this dao pattern while it’s still fresh to me. Do not come and disturb me.”
“You little vixen! You only care about setting things on fire and not putting fires out...”
Jiang Yi did not dare to fool around. After all, Yin Ruobing’s cultivation was more important. He left the room quietly and took the Mystic Divine Palace out of the Heaven Evasion state. He wanted to find out where the Mystic Divine Palace had flown to. Based on his calculations, they should not be far from the Buddha Region.
“Eh?”
His divine senses surged forth and scanned a fifty-kilometer radius. His face suddenly changed. He had detected an army a few million strong fifty kilometers to the northeast. That army was attacking a big city. The city’s shields had already been penetrated. There were only a few hundred thousand soldiers in the city, with few formidable martial artists around. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, their fate was total annihilation.
“Those people are from the Yi Clan!”
Jiang Yi’s killing aura surged in a moment as the Mystic Divine Palace swiftly disappeared in a crevice in the sky and headed for the battlefield.
