Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 1278: Secret of the Fire Dragon Sword

Laying the formation indeed wasn’t an easy task. This formation had to envelop the entire Stellarsky Domain. Hence, when Jiang Yi told the elder their decision, he immediately made Jiang Yi go and prepare the things he needed.

The materials were very complicated and numerous. Fortunately, after consulting the Buddha Thearch and others, they all realized that each of their clans had a few. Once they headed back to their cities, it shouldn’t be a problem.

Time was of the essence!

Besides the Saint Empress, Jiang Yi teleported the Buddha Thearch, Yin Thearch, Tang Shenji, and the various clan heads into the Mystic Divine Palace as they flew south as fast as they could. Once they could use Heaven Evasion, they would be able to reach the North Thearch City within two days!

There was an army gathered at the North Thearch City. The martial artists from the Wu Clan and its vassal clans had all been captured. After Jiang Yi returned, he ordered all of them to be executed. Those martial artists that were caught were all killed while the old, weak, women, and kids were exiled to Sin Island.

The Buddha Thearch and others quickly went back to their cities to gather the necessary materials. Jiang Yi stationed himself in North Thearch City while, on the other hand, an army started to move on Netherworld Mountain. Jiang Yi’s orders were to kill everyone from the Heaven Nether Sect and to destroy all formations there. Everything owned by the Heaven Nether Sect had to be destroyed.

Countless formation stones, celestial stones, coal, and other materials were being sent over incessantly; they began to form a small mountain in the city plaza of the Wu Castle. Jiang Yi also produced a blueprint and gathered a few hundred of the best craftsmen from the Tang Clan as they started to build a huge pagoda according to the blueprints.

The entire Wu Castle was also being rebuilt. The Buddha Thearch and others had asked for this, to tear down the Wu Clan’s castles and rebuild them. From now on, the North Thearch City would be called the Jiang Thearch City; the Wu Castle would be renamed the Jiang Castle as well. This city would then belong to Jiang Yi and the Jiang Clan from now on.

The new Jiang Castle would possess the strongest formations that could rival the Mystic Thearch City’s defensive formation. At the same time, each of the several dozen clans would send a Demigod to be stationed in Jiang Castle to protect it.

They weren’t there to help Jiang Yi keep watch over his home. More importantly, the formation that would seal off the Stellarsky Domain would be based in the Jiang Castle. If this formation was destroyed, the Stellarsky Domain would be finished as well. Hence, everyone naturally wanted to protect this place to prevent any sneak attacks from the Heaven Nether Sect.

According to the elder, the formation going to seal off the Stellarsky Domain was called the Big Heaven Wheel Formation. The base of the formation took five days to build; it was a pagoda tall as a thousand feet. The pagoda had been made from coal, celestial stones, formation stones, and some other materials. A billion celestial stones had been necessary for this! Furthermore, these celestial stones and some precious materials would quickly be used up as time passed; once they were exhausted ten years from now, the formation would be rendered useless.

“Ask everyone to leave!”

After all the preparation had been made, Jiang Yi focused his thoughts on the Fire Dragon Sword and the elder gave his order. Jiang Yi could only ask everyone to leave. The entire Jiang Castle was emptied, and no one dared to use their divine senses either. New chapters are published on novelenglish.net . Fɪre.net

Buzz!

The Fire Dragon Sword lit up, and a white phantom image floated out. The mysterious elder had appeared once again. This elder looked extremely normal; no one would spare him a second look in a crowd. However, there was a certain air to him that made no one dare to belittle him.

The elder swept a glance at the black pagoda as he nodded and said, “This formation base is not bad; it should be able to hold for ten years.”

Swish!

The elder gently flicked his hand as a light breeze flew over and entered the pagoda. Following that, black light started to beam out from within the pagoda. At the top of it, a huge black pillar of light shot into the skies. Once it rose up into the high skies, it started to spread like a waterspout in all directions. A semicircular shield quickly formed.

Finally, the entire Stellarsky Domain was enveloped by this shield. It was as if a giant bowl had been turned upside-down over the entire domain. The black light also steadily disappeared. However, there were still faint beams of light being dissipated from the formation; it was very mystical.

“Alright!”

The elder casually took a look at the sky as his phantom image became even more translucent. He turned his gaze to Jiang Yi and said, “My energy has almost been used up; I have to sleep for a few years. Don’t expect to rely on me for everything. The road from hereon will all depend on you. Try your best to ascend within a year and fly to the Higher Domain. As for how to save your Stellarsky Domain, you have to go up there and find a way yourself!”

“Many thanks, Senior!” Jiang Yi cupped his hands and said. The elder paused and said, “My slumber will take around five years. If you still have any questions, you better ask now.”

“Alright!”

Jiang Yi had kept his questions to himself for a long time. Now that the elder was so generous, Jiang Yi naturally wanted to clear some things up. He thought for a while and asked, “Senior, what is so special about the Nameless Divine Art? I have cultivated until the third stage; why do I still feel as if there is still a higher stage after that?

The elder looked at Jiang Yi admiringly. This question was an excellent one. The elder did not think much and answered straightaway, “This Nameless Divine Art is something formidable that I created in my latter years! There are nine stages all together. When you become a God, the fourth stage’s cultivation technique would naturally appear.

“What is so special about this art? When you have the opportunity to cultivate until the seventh stage or above, you would naturally understand. There is no point in saying more about this now; you would not understand. No one has cultivated this art before. Theoretically, if one manages to cultivate until the ninth stage, that person would be extremely powerful. Of course, you have to figure all this out yourself.”

“Uh!”

Jiang Yi rolled his eyes; he was somewhat speechless. No one had cultivated this before? Wasn’t he being treated like a lab rat? What if there was something wrong with this cultivation technique?

The elder didn’t want to say anymore on this matter, and Jiang Yi didn’t want to press further. Jiang Yi thought again and asked what he wanted to ask the most, “Senior, are the Fire Dragon Sword, Fire Spirit Pearl, and the Mystic Divine Saber one entity? Why is it they could fuse together? Also, the restrictions on the Fire Dragon Sword seemed to be defective or not complete; could this weapon be repaired?”

“Keke!”

The elder looked at the Fire Dragon Sword, his expression complicated. He looked for a long while before he sighed and said, “This weapon cannot be repaired. Actually... this weapon had been split into seven pieces by me. These three parts had accompanied my remnant soul to the Stellarsky Domain.

“As for the other four and the real Artifact Spirit of the sword, they are all scattered in other domains. As to where exactly, I do not know either. Once you enter the Higher Domain, you can try to find them. Every time you find one, your power would increase ten-fold.

“If you can gather all seven pieces as well as the sword’s Artifact Spirit, this sword will then reveal its true form. It will then be at its full strength and power. Its power would definitely be beyond your expectations. At that time, you will also probably know who I am!”

“What?”

Jiang Yi was shocked. This Fire Dragon Sword still had four missing pieces and its Artifact Spirit scattered in other domains? The sword was already very powerful as it was; if he could gather the other four parts and its Artifact Spirit, how insanely powerful could this sword become? Who on earth was this elder? To possess such a powerful divine artifact, he must be an important person in the Higher Domain!

“Lad, work hard on cultivating!”

The elder’s phantom image steadily disappeared within the Fire Dragon Sword as he left his final words: “You are destined to be mortal enemies with the Netherworld Realm. If you want to save the Stellarsky Domain and to live your life, you have to cultivate in earnest. Once your strength reaches a certain point, the Nameless Divine Art’s next cultivation technique would automatically be revealed.

“When you reach the ninth stage and find all the missing pieces of the Fire Dragon Sword and its Artifact Spirit, you would possess the powers necessary to fight the Netherworld Realm! If not... you will definitely be slaughtered and torn into pieces; this sword would automatically leave and find its next master as well.”

“En... I will definitely do my best!”

Jiang Yi clenched his fists firmly as he stared into the void, and he shouted, “I have to shatter the void and ascend to the Higher Domain! Mother, wait for me. I will come and find you soon.”
