Chapter 227: Prowess of the Fire Dragon Sword

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jiang Yi was naturally in Mt. Thirty Thousand to look for a spirit beast. He requested Qian Wanguan for three spirit beast talismans in order to tame high-grade demonic beasts, which meant he had to come to Mt. Thirty Thousand.

The Black-Clouds Snow Steps traversed at high speed and took just one hour to enter the mountain ranges that had luxuriant growth. After entering the mountains, this warhorse had an obvious decrease in speed, feeling fretful and disturbed. They might only be on the edge of Mt. Thirty Thousand, but the demonic beast aura that came from within instilled fear into this warhorse.

“Yar!”

Under Jiang Yi’s demon mask was a pair of icy cold eyes as he unceasingly brandished the horsewhip to advance the warhorse. After galloping for another two hours—crossing over dozens of mountains, they finally stopped when the demonic beasts began to appear.

This Black-Clouds Snow Steps was just a horse and didn’t have any combat power. Even when meeting the demonic beast of the lowest tier, it would still fear instinctively. It would be impossible if he wanted to rely on this warhorse to advance further. Jiang Yi jumped off the horse, patting on the warhorse’s rear and saying, “Buddy, go have fun by yourself; and I wish you all the best!”

Jiang Yi released this famed horse—which was two million purple gold—without a trace of reluctance. He then circulated his essence force to sprint deep into the mountains. He didn’t have much time left, and the bridal escort army was going to catch up soon. Once they entered the Great Xia Kingdom, it would be a wide expanse of flat ground, allowing them to reach the Summer Rain City in just a few days and giving him no more opportunities.

Qian Wanguan guessed it right: Jiang Yi truly wanted to intercept the army and the betrothal gifts to plunder the Soul-Subduing Herb.

He was crazy, and it was forced by Xia Tingwei and Xia Wuhui. Once this Soul-Subduing Herb entered the royal clan of the Great Xia Kingdom, there wouldn’t be any more chances for him to obtain it. In the history of the entire continent, there were only a few dozen stalks of Soul-Subduing Herb; if he missed this one, he might never be able to save Jiang Xiaonu in this lifetime.

Actually... Jiang Yi had another safer method: to ask Su Ruoxue for help. Since these betrothal gifts were meant for marrying her, if she was to ask the royal clan of the Great Xia Kingdom would definitely give it to her.

The problem was would Jiang Yi ask for it?

Obviously not!

There was another important reason for plundering the Soul-Subduing Herb. Jiang Yi wanted to give a slap on Xia Tingwei and Xia Wuhui’s faces to vent out all the negative feelings in his heart. He was unable to change Su Ruoxue’s fate; he was only able to take vicious revenge on Xia Wuhui to retaliate against the royal clan of the Divine Martial Kingdom. He wanted the Divine Martial Kingdom to be humiliated!

The battle from twenty years ago—where Jiang Bieli eradicated hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the Great Xia Kingdom at the Soul Break Valley—caused the Great Xia Kingdom’s combat strength to become very weak. The Great Xia Kingdom was fearful that the Divine Martial Kingdom might take revenge and exterminate the kingdom. For the Great Xia Kingdom, Su Ruoxue had no choice but to yield as a descendant of her King Father and Queen Mother. Jiang Yi respected her decision; otherwise—if she had been forced, he would definitely fight to his death to kidnap the bride.

Since he had decided to plunder, it was natural that he had to make some preparations. He might be crazy, but he wasn’t a fool to blindly throw his life away. Hence, he made haste through day and night to come to Mt. Thirty Thousand.

“Swish!”

Even though he was both mentally and physically fatigued, Jiang Yi still hurried at full speed. He might have been releasing a formidable aura, but his reckless dashing naturally alarmed those lower-tiered demonic beasts on the outskirts.

“Hu-Hu!”

A tier-one rhinoceros-type demonic beast came running, but Jiang Yi’s speed didn’t decrease. Wielding the Black Scale Sword, he swiped across the rhinoceros demonic beast, splitting it into two parts—resulting in instant death.

Jiang Yi would slay demonic beasts along as he sprinted. The Black Scale Sword was a spirit artifact which tier-one demonic beasts wouldn’t be able to block and would be slain upon contact.

After sprinting for four hours, the amount of demonic beasts’ appearance began to decrease while there was an increase in tier. The encounters were basically all tier-two demonic beasts; therefore, Jiang Yi had no choice but to slow down his pace.

He might not find any suitable tier-two demonic beasts, but if their strengths could complement each other and had special traits, it might be good to tame one. Furthermore, he was only at the second stage of the Purple Mansion Realm. His speed was too slow even though he was about to break through to the third stage of the Purple Mansion Realm. Even if his attack strength was currently insanely formidable, he couldn’t help but be a little more cautious.

“Tsk-Tsk!”

Atop of a huge tree was a green branch that suddenly twisted about, it was apparently a giant python which had extreme speed. In just a blink of the eye, it was lunging towards Jiang Yi with a huge scarlet mouth which was about to swallow Jiang Yi alive.

“Fire Dragon Sword!”

Jiang Yi was barely within the inner area of Mt. Thirty Thousand, and he didn’t notice anyone else along the way here, too. This was why he took out the Fire Dragon Sword without any restraints, pouring his essence force out and into the Fire Dragon Sword and slashing vigorously ahead.

“Buzz!”

The Fire Dragon Sword instantly released an extremely strong aura while the python actually got stunned in mid-air by the horrifying presence of the Fire Dragon Sword!

“Tsk-Tsk!”

The red light on the Fire Dragon Sword quickly formed two fire dragons which whizzed out. The fire dragons this time was obviously very different from the first time Jiang Yi used it. The fire dragons reached a length of three meters, and the instant the fire dragons appeared, the air in the front seemed to distort, causing ripples which undulated. The whole picture looked horrifying.

“Bang!”

Before the fire dragons even made contact with the python, the massive body of the python was immediately minced up by the terrifying forces, turning it into a rain of blood that scattered in all directions. The two fire dragons continued flying forward, turning all the trees that it flew across into dust. The two fire dragons finally flew for about 30 meters before expending all the energy and vanishing into mid-air.

“Oh, my god...”

Jiang Yi stuck out his tongue. If he was going to plunder the Soul-Subduing Herb by himself, his greatest reliance would be at this saint artifact. Now, it seemed like this saint artifact didn’t disappoint him; and its power was definitely on par with Jiang Yiliu’s Man-Ruler Seal and Shui Qianrou’s World-Extinguishing Silver Necklace!

“This saint artifact has such power; why did the Azure Dragon Empire willingly offer it as a reward?”

Jiang Yi suspiciously blinked his eyes and shot his eyes towards the Fire Spirit Pearl at the sword hilt. He muttered, “Is this Fire Dragon Sword not supposed to be so powerful? Is it because of the fusion with the Fire Spirit Pearl that caused its power to grow several folds?”

“Fire Spirit Pearl, split up!”

Jiang Yi focused his thoughts on the Fire Spirit Pearl which let out a flash and separated from the Fire Dragon Sword. Jiang Yi held the Fire Spirit Pearl and the Fire Dragon Sword in each hand before he tried pouring his essence force, which lit up the Fire Dragon Sword again. Even without the Fire Spirit Pearl, the Fire Dragon Sword was actually activated and had a connection with Jiang Yi’s soul spirit.

Jiang Yi used all his strength to pour in his essence force while the Fire Dragon Sword radiated with light, but the light wasn’t as lofty as before, and the aura was much inferior.

“He!”

Jiang Yi looked ahead and suddenly slashed. The Fire Dragon Sword’s red light quickly formed a single fire dragon which flew forward.

“That’s weird... why is it only one fire dragon? And the firepower seems much more inferior?”

Jiang Yi totally ignored the fire dragon that turned the forestry in front into dust while his eyes were filled with bewilderment. Once that fire dragon lost all the energy and vanished, he quickly fused the Fire Spirit Pearl and slashed one more time.

As expected!

After fusing with the Fire Spirit Pearl, the Fire Dragon Sword’s aura instantly become frightening while the red light formed two fire dragons, increasing the firepower by two folds!

“So this is how it is!”

The doubt in Jiang Yi’s heart was finally cleared up. This defective saint artifact was indeed inferior in strength, but it was definitely much superior to a heaven artifact; thus, the reason why the Azure Dragon Empire willingly gave it as a reward.

Another question appeared. After fusing with the Fire Spirit Pearl, the strength of the Fire Dragon Sword was actually comparable to a regular saint artifact.

If he was able to repair the restriction array within the saint artifact, wouldn’t the firepower be even stronger? Right now, only a fifth of the restriction arrays was completed. If the rest of the arrays were repaired, this Fire Dragon Sword’s power would definitely be heaven-defying. Would it still be considered a saint artifact?
