Chapter 1621: Ancient Corpse

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jiang Yi recovered very quickly. The divine tree leaf had strong healing properties, not worse than He Xiang back at the Ten Thousand Domain Tournament. In an hour—under the aid of the divine tree leaf, Jiang Yi was almost completely well.

After the Poison Spirit helped him out, he released Qi Qingchen. They heard Jiang Yi’s account of the battle. Once again, Qi Qingchen fell silent.

This time, the pride in her bones was completely gone. He Nongying was not older than she was, but her battle skills were even better than Heavenly King You’s. What’s more, He Nongying had not even gone all out. Who knew what her real combat ability would be like?

He Nongying was a young mistress from a great family clan, who possessed a treasure. However, Qi Qingchen was also from a prestigious clan. This world was unfair and unequal. No matter the reason—if her combat ability was stronger, they were just stronger. The fact that she was a top-tier young mistress in the Heaven Domain who came here on her own showed that she was not like the others. Follow current s on novelenglish.net . Fɪre.net

Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen did not develop much hatred for this Young Mistress He. Although both of them did not plan to snatch her treasures, at least Qi Qingchen said ‘rob or not?’ This developed a misunderstanding between them, and it was only natural that He Nongying tried to teach them a lesson. Jiang Yi withstood her blow, and she did not pursue the matter further; neither did she rob him of his Fire Dragon Sword. This already showed that she had rarely-seen morals.

He Nongying, if there’s a chance in the future, I must return this blow to you!

Jiang Yi did not take to heart the fact that he was injured. However, He Nongying’s contemptuous attitude had hurt his pride. This made him swear in his heart that he would find an opportunity to turn the tables around.

The Poison Spirit continued to look around as Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen advanced in silence.

Jiang Yi’s innate pride had been destroyed by this Young Mistress He. To comfort himself, he had to swear to go to the Heaven Domain and take revenge. Naturally, he was feeling low and bitter inside.

As they advanced on their journey, he reflected on a lot of things. A while ago, he taught Qi Qingchen a lesson. Yet, he realized that he had become more arrogant over time.

Killing You Tianni, sending White River City into chaos, and burning a King-Ranked martial artist alive outside the Demon-Killing Palace made him feel like his combat ability was equivalent to King-Ranked martial artists. He thought he could kill all the formidable martial artists inside the Demon-Killing Pavilion.

He had a big ball of Prairie Flames which filled his Fire Spirit Pearl. He also had several Chaos Pearls which could help him merge flames continuously. Just his Merged Flames alone could indeed kill King-Ranked martial artists. However, they had their own strengths and weaknesses. Not all young masters and young mistresses were useless. He Nongying taught him this lesson and made him understand that he was not invincible in the Demon-Killing Palace.

What’s more...!

Flames were external resources. The day would come where he would run out of Prairie Flames. He was depending on external forces and not his own combat abilities. Once he finishes using up the Prairie Flames, would he still be able to kill King-Ranked martial artists? He probably would not be able to even if they stood there and allowed him to try.

Jiang Yi’s gaze hardened. Qi Qingchen remained silent as well. Both of them continued on in this manner, reflecting on themselves. Ten hours passed like this. It was only when the Poison Spirit returned that they snapped out of their reverie.

The Poison Spirit cupped his hands and reported, “Young Lord, General, I’ve discovered a special place. I think there might be treasures there.”

“Treasures?”

Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen exchanged a meaningful glance. Both of them smiled bitterly. Even if there were Dao Heaven Spiritual Treasures, they might not be very excited.

However, since there were treasures, they had to go and take a look. Both of them followed closely behind the Poison Spirit. Ten minutes later, they arrived in a gorge. It was pitch-black inside; they could not see a single thing. Jiang Yi stood outside the gorge and tried to sense what was inside. Then, his eyes lit up. “There really is a treasure in there!”

Without needing to be instructed, the Poison Spirit hid by the side of the gorge. Qi Qingchen felt around and nodded. “There are strange movements inside. They’re really mysterious. I don’t think they’re restrictions. What could it be?”

“Let’s go in and find out.”

Jiang Yi released hundreds of Sword Emanations Race beings to pave the way as he took big strides in. He moved quite slowly, and his eyes remained closed the entire time. In the State of the Union of Heaven and Man, he continued to keep a close eye on his surroundings.

As he advanced forward, the movements became stronger and stronger. The Sword Emanations Race beings were moving in a single file now. They did not meet any danger or restrictions along the way. Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen were in the middle, surrounded by Sword Emanations Race beings in front and behind them. Thus, they were relatively safe.

After moving for a couple of kilometers, Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen finally found the source of the movements. It was a stone that resembled a drum. There were water droplets on top of the drum, and each time the water droplets landed on the stone, the stone would vibrate, causing movements in the air around it.

“Is this stone a treasure?” Qi Qingchen glanced at it for a while and discovered that the stone drum was connected to the stone slab underneath it. She turned to Jiang Yi suspiciously.

“The stone is not a treasure. Look, there is a little dent in its head, where the water is seeping into the stone. If the stone really was the treasure, how could it allow water to seep in? However, I guess that this stone is very tough and strong. Water has been dripping onto it for so many years; and yet, there is only one little dent there.”

Jiang Yi shook his head then turned to focus on the water dripping onto the stone. Looking further up, he discovered that the water was dripping from a stalactite. There was a huge rock overhead, and the water was coming from inside there.

“There’s something wrong with this water!”

Jiang Yi’s gaze immediately sharpened. Qi Qingchen retrieved a medial-grade divine artifact and waved it ahead to take a closer look at what exactly was so wrong with the water.

“Don’t move!”

Jiang Yi shouted. Qi Qingchen halted and turned to him in shock. “What’s the matter? I’m not reaching out towards it.”

“Move back!” Jiang Yi instructed. After Qi Qingchen moved back, he steered one of the Sword Emanations Race beings to reach out its blade-like arm towards the water.

Dida!

The water landed on the Sword Emanations Race being’s blade. What happened next caused Qi Qingchen to be scared stiff. The water shot out in all directions, turning into tens of little water droplets. All the Sword Emanations Race beings that were hit by the water immediately corroded before their eyes. One little water droplet could destroy a Sword Emanations Race being. In a blink of an eye, tens of Sword Emanations Race beings perished.

“Ss, what... what is this?”

Qi Qingchen turned to the Sword Emanations Race beings emitting green smoke. Then, she sucked in a couple of deep breaths. This was her first time seeing water droplets as terrifying as this. Although she had a Primitive Spiritual Treasure as battle armor, she was not sure what would happen if the water droplets had touched her.

“On top!”

Jiang Yi looked up at the huge rock and said in a cool voice, “This huge rock contains a terrifying existence. This water isn’t ordinary. It’s corpse water. I felt a bit of corpse aura. I’m guessing that a huge, powerful, ancient corpse is trapped inside that stone. Perhaps it is the corpse of a formidable martial artist or of a formidable ancient beast.”

“Corpse water?”

Qi Qingchen’s face drained of all color. No matter how strong a woman was, she would definitely have a fear of things like this. If corpse water leaking out of corpses was this scary, how much scarier could the ancient corpse itself be?

“Jiang Yi, let’s... go.”

Qi Qingchen looked up at the huge rock fearfully and said. She had no more interest in the treasure, much less in the ancient corpse.

Jiang Yi did not budge. Instead, he closed his eyes and entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man to develop a sense of the rock. He was not greedy for more treasures; neither would he allow Qi Qingchen to risk her life and be scared to death for the sake of treasures. It was just that he sensed a mysterious movement earlier on.

The movement was not caused by the dripping water. Instead, it was coming from the huge rock overhead!

When he felt the movement, his heart jumped; his heart rate quickened. What’s more... the Power of Heaven and Earth in his ninth star sphere experienced odd effects as well.

Half an hour, one hour... one and a half hours!

Jiang Yi opened his eyes so that they resembled two huge suns. Qi Qingchen did not even dare to look into his eyes anymore. As Jiang Yi stared at the huge rock, his expression became astonished. His lips trembled slightly as he spat, “It’s a corpse of a formidable martial artist from the Mighty God Race. It’s no wonder that it’s so powerful!”
