Chapter 513 - The Son of the Demon Thearch
Where is the East Imperial Continent? Where is the Heaven Fox Continent? Who is Yu Wen? Will he tell me where my mom is if I found him? And is Ruoxue still safe in the East Imperial Continent? Jiang Yi’s mind was blown with many questions.
The Yazi Beast flew through the sky over the east sea like a stream of flowing light. Jiang Yi sat cross-legged on the Yazi Beast, looking perplexed. Eight days had already passed since they set off to the sea, but Jiang Yi still had not figured out what he should do. Over these days, the only thing he did was comprehending sorceries or just letting his imagination go wild.
Yi Piaopiao told him that once he reached the peak of the Vajra Realm, he could go to the East Imperial Continent to find Yu Wen, who would then tell him where to find his mom. Even though his Vajra Realm hardly had any enemy with this Massacre Intent and that his Netherworld Ghost Flames could easily destroy martial artists at the peak of the Vajra Realm, he knew that his actual strength was still just at the beginning of the Vajra Realm. Hence, he felt a little bit worried about that.
Of course, all those were just his random thoughts as his imagination went wild during his boring trip over the boundless sea. He was not even sure whether he could reach the East Imperial Continent.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
There were suddenly booming sounds coming in front of him, pulling his mind back to reality. He scanned through the surrounding quickly and cursed silently, “F*ck, it is coming again! Go down to the sea now, Yazi Beast!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sky and sea region in front of Jiang Yi had turned dark completely with tons of black clouds covering the sky. Thousands of electrical snakes bolted bombastically in the air; lightning turned into a countless number of thunder dragons hurtled downward and rived the sea surface, bringing about a frightening tempestuous storm. If one tried to barge in forcefully, one might easily get killed by the thunder or the electricity.
Within the eight days on the sea, Jiang Yi had already encountered six deadly thunderstorms. Now, he finally understood why so many strong people never come back from their adventure to the outside world.
It was indeed way too dangerous here. There could be extreme rainstorms happening anytime. Those rainstorms on the ocean were much stronger and devastating than those happening on the continent. Jiang Yi could still recall how shocked and scared they were on their first ride over the ocean when he and the Yazi Beast almost got shot by the thunder. Ever since that experience, Jiang Yi and his Yazi Beast learned to escape under the ocean every time they encountered a rainstorm.
If there were no rainstorm and thunder, the deep ocean would be much safer. Even though there were any Demon Thearch and Demon King here, Jiang Yi was unlikely to get attacked since he was flying high up in the sky, far away from any Demon Thearch and Demon King who could be staying deeply under the water.
“Wow!”
The Yazi Beast rushing all the way down to the deep ocean to avoid staying at the shallower water for long scared away many oceanic creatures down there. The Yazi Beast stopped at around the 33-kilometer depth. By that time, Jiang Yi had already used his divine senses to search the surrounding area to see if there were any strong ocean demons.
Let’s go!
Jiang Yi made a hand signal silently to the Yazi Beast when he finished searching. Receiving the signal from Jiang Yi, Yazi Beast headed towards the east immediately.
The Yazi Beast did not dare to stay around this place for any longer. There were lightning bolts striking down continuously which would find targets to attack once they enter the sea. Since the Yazi Beast was huge, they would easily become the target if they stayed still.
“Left! Left! Left!”
Jiang Yi’s face turned serious suddenly after they traveled for around five thousand meters, shouting with his mouth closed and making hand signals at the same time. The Yazi Beast’s huge eyeballs shrank and made a turn in a flurry.
“Chi! Chi!”
Right in front of them, there was an electrical dragon shooting down to the sea and then disappeared quickly with a flash of light. The Yazi Beast shivered with terror. If Jiang Yi’s divine senses did not detect the coming danger on time, they would probably get burned into charcoal now.
Jiang Yi cautiously detected their surroundings as they continued with their journey and asked the Yazi Beast to change their direction once there was any lightning bolt striking towards them. Luckily, the lightning bolt would get blocked and separated by the sea water once it entered the ocean, forcing it to travel at a slower speed and weaker power. Jiang Yi and the Yazi Beast could escape to the deep water to avoid attacks from the lightning bolt. If not, even with Jiang Yi’s divine senses, they would not be able to protect themselves against the lightning bolt of full speed and power.
...
“We should be reaching it soon. We have probably passed the thunder zone already since there has been no lightning bolt coming for fifteen minutes already.”
After traveling peacefully for around one hour without facing any strong sea demons, Jiang Yi could finally relax a bit. He was going to ask the Yazi Beast to go upwards in just a while.
“Koo Koo!”
Right at that moment, Jiang Yi heard a deep, strange sound coming out from the deep ocean. His expression turned serious. He spread his divine senses over, with the Fire Dragon Sword appearing in his hand at the same time. “Yazi Beast, there is a demon king here! You fight against it from the front, and I will do a sneak attack!” Jiang Yi shouted silently.
Roar!
The Yazi Beast fearlessly roared when it sensed the aura of the demon king and pounced downwards to it.
Swish!
Jiang Yi sneakily jumped to the other side from the Yazi Beast’s back. Although his face looked serious, he was too worried about it. Recognizing it from the aura, Jiang Yi knew that this was a sea lion which had just broken through to the demon king realm. He was pretty confident that the Yazi Beast alone was already strong enough to fight against this demon king.
Jiang Yi could have killed the demon king easily with his Massacre Intent which was his trump card. However, he decided not to use it this time. Now, it was different from the time when he was in the Stellarsky Continent. Once released, the surrounding with a radius of more than fifty thousand kilometers would be enveloped with his Massacre Intent; and everyone inside would be able to feel it. Hence, he would never use it unless he had no other choice.
The sea lion was around twenty meters tall, with its huge eyes illuminating with blue light. There was a white horn on his head and two white fins on its back. Its fins looked like two huge wings which enabled it to travel very fast in the sea. In just a few seconds, it had already dashed over to Jiang Yi and Yazi Beast. Its huge blue eyes glinted sharply.
Roar!
The Yazi Beast went wild. With its fiery-red horn flashed in a second, it turned into a stream of flowing white light pillar darted forwards and clashed heavily against two streams of blue light from the demon king.
Boom!
The deep, loud explosive sound made Jiang Yi, standing not too far away, feel the pain from his ears. The surface of the ocean fluctuated violently, with sea waves hitting and spreading outward bombastically. Such terrifying aura had made the sea demons within fifty kilometers away frightened, and they escaped away as fast as they could.
Swish!
The Yazi Beast and the sea lion had come extremely close to each other, leaving both of them no time to congeal their demonic strengths and release demonic arts to attack each other. Hence, they slaughtered with each other using the most ordinary way of fighting—purely physical force.
Pong-Pong!
Clashing sound of metals echoed as their claws colliding with each other continuously. Their claws were equally hard and sharp, and they both had strong defense power. What determined who the winner should be were simply just their attack and reaction speed and their physical strength.
It was obvious!
The Yazi Beast was a peak-grade demon king while the sea lion was just a new and young demon king. There was way too much difference between their strengths. The Yazi Beast had already created a few scars on the sea lion’s body even before Jiang Yi’s approach. If not for its strong defense, the sea lion’s body could probably have been torn apart by the Yazi Beast.
“Koo-Koo!”
As Jiang Yi’s aura reached the Vajra Realm and his silent approach, the sea lion finally felt scared and wanted to withdraw.
“Hmph!”
How could one let go of such a good opportunity to kill a demon king?
Demon kings’ bodies were really precious, especially their elixirs. One of the main aims that Jiang Yi had for this journey was to find the Destitute Dragon Grass. However, he knew that he did not have enough strength to fight against all those strong martial artists in the outside world to get the Destitute Dragon Grass. The only way for him was to use some other treasures to exchange for it. Now, a treasure just lied right in front of him.
Roar!
The Yazi Beast was smart this time. It did not chase the sea lion when it saw that the sea lion was trying to escape. Instead, it released a piece of demonic art to force the sea lion to hastily avoid the attack. At the same time, Jiang Yi’s body disappeared.
“Die—!”
Jiang Yi made an instant shift to around three hundred meters away from the sea lion and released his fusion martial skill. The Fire Spirit Pearl on his hand flashed, and his Fire Dragon Sword chopped down suddenly at the same time, two fire dragons dashing forward with their bodies wrapped with ghost flames.
The sea lion was frightened, and it suddenly realized that it would be killed in just a second. He stared at the ghost flames in horror and shouted deeply and loudly, “No... no! You can’t kill me! My father is the King of this region. He is the Lion Chi Demon Thearch! He will never let you go if he knows that you’ve killed me...”
The sea lion’s word was not very clear since it was talking under the water. Jiang Yi took a long while to understand what its words meant. However, it was too late. Once the fusion martial skill was released, he could never retrieve it back.
“Chi! Chi!”
A large amount of seawater evaporated into fumes surging into the sky and overcasting the sea region nearby. Jiang Yi’s Netherworld Ghost Flames could easily burn a peak-grade demon king in a second, not to mention this sea lion’s weak defense. Soon, Jiang Yi heard the sea lion’s miserable screams.
“Lion Chi Demon Thearch!”
Jiang Yi and the Yazi Beast’s expression both turned more serious with the sea lion’s death. Did we just kill a demon thearch’s son? They thought at the same time, noticing the terror from each other’s eyes.
