Chapter 1028: Act Turning into Reality

The situation outside was terribly messy. The Fire Chi Race had waged war against Cao Duantian. Half of Cao Duantian’s army had been destroyed. If the Clan Head of the Fire Chi Race had not stopped them, Cao Duantian would have been killed by now.

After the Clan Head of the Fire Chi Race understood what had happened, he became extremely angry. Huo Gu had been his favorite grandchild. It was bad enough that he learned about Huo Gu’s death. Now, even the Ice Beast King’s core had been stolen. The fact that the three of them managed to beat the Mantis Blade Sect boosted his confidence. He thought that if the three of them joined forces, even Cao Peiwen would have to try hard to beat them.

Thus, he decided to take action and prepared to defeat Cao Peiwen. However, Cao Peiwen’s sudden appearance scared the Clan Head of the Fire Chi Race half to death. Qiu Shan and the Clan Head of the Mammoth Race were equally scared. They cast aside chasing the Mantis Blade Sect down for a while and decided to run away in fear.

The entire Snow Region trembled under Cao Peiwen’s wrath. Many races, who had been making their way to the battlefield, stopped short after hearing the news. They did not dare to get any closer to the battlefield. Instead, now that the Ice Beast King had been killed, there was no reason for them to go down there anymore.

While the three sects retreated in anger, they killed every small sect that they met along the way. Those that were unlucky were wiped out. Those that were slightly luckier lost a significant portion of their army. The people of the three sects were still riling from the murder of their Young Clan Heads, the battle with the Mantis Blade Sect, and the loss of the Ice Beast King’s internal core.

The Mantis Blade Sect and the Tiger Subdue Sect were equally angry. The Mantis Blade Sect had lost tens of thousands of people that day. At last, less than 3000 people managed to escape the battlefield. Even Mantis Blade was severely injured. The Tiger Subdue Sect lost many people as well. Most importantly, Cao Peiwen had refused to show his face initially. However, in the end, he had no choice but to come out and offend the three sects.

After a round of investigations, he found out that it was not his own disciple who had obtained the core of the Ice Beast King. In fact, Cao Peiwen and the elders of Tiger Subdue Sect had not asked anyone to do such a thing. The person that had stolen the core had disappeared without a trace just like that.

With fire still burning in his chest, he had to find a way to let it out. This time, the small sects whom the Ice Beast King attracted to the battlefield took the blow. As a result, even those small sects were angered. Thus, the entire Snow Region was caught in a fit of anger. Wars were being started all over the place, and countless people dying every second.

Mo Shen walked one round around the entire region and returned to his mountain on the eighth day. After learning that Jiang Yi was back, he heaved a sigh of relief and did not bother to ask too many questions. All he did was call for Mo Yao’er to be grounded. The other people of the Heaven Devil Mountain were not allowed to leave the mountain as well.

Mo Shen was still angry at the fact that Qiu Bai and the others had tried to attack Mo Yao’er. However, Mo Yao’er and Mo Xing were both back safe and sound while Qiu Bai and the others were already dead. The three sects had suffered huge losses as well. Now, while the three sects were still in fits of rage, Mo Shen decided against leading an army toward them. In addition to the fact that he was still working on a powerful dao pattern these days, there was simply no time for him to get involved in all these businesses.

…

Jiang Yi, who had caused the chaos in the Snow Region, stayed in isolation for a total of one month. The moment he came out, he asked around for the situation on the outside. Out of frustration, he decided to go back into isolation to train. Mo Shen gave orders to keep the entire mountain on lockdown. Nobody was allowed to enter or exit the mountain. Mo Shen had not emerged as well. If Jiang Yi dared to mess around with her, he would lose even the Heaven Devil Mountain as possible accommodation. Given the chaos outside and the countless number of wars, it was way too dangerous for Jiang Yi to go out and roam on his own as well.

“Cultivate!”

Although Jiang Yi felt extremely anxious and each day he had to wait felt like torture, he was no idiot. He was not about to go out and court death. All he could do was remain behind and force himself to focus on training. All things aside, he had to at least get his essence force to the level of a peak-stage Heaven Monarch.

On the Heaven and Earth powers, the heaven and earth essence force was about 250 times more intense. What’s more, Jiang Yi’s body had been improved by the Destitute Dragon Grass. Thus, his training was now about 2500 times more productive. Such a good training treasure was hard to come by. This was about 200 times better than on the Heaven Fate Ship belonging to the Tang Clan.

He only had to get his essence force to that of a peak-stage Heaven Monarch, realize dao patterns three-star and above, and gather a God spirit. Then, he would be a Demigod!

Jiang Yi had already realized two three-star dao patterns—the Icebound Thousand Miles and the Fury of Thunder. There was no Heaven and Earth Anomaly when he realized the latter, but Jiang Yi was sure that it was at least a three-star dao pattern because of its power.

1The other techniques like the Divine Sound Heaven Skill, the Thunder Fire Divine Shield, the Astral Wind Blades, and the Rainbow Soul Swords were just mystical abilities. Otherwise, they were just moves that were products of dao patterns. They themselves could not be considered dao patterns.

Thus, Jiang Yi was sure that he needed one more three-star dao pattern. Apart from that, he had to raise his essence force to that of a peak-stage Heaven Monarch. The last thing he would have to do is gather a god spirit before he would officially become a Demigod.

 1“After I become a Demigod, would my essence force become divine power? If I have divine power, it should be a breeze for me to trigger the Nirvana Flames in the Smelting Divine Furnace, right? It would be perfect if I can activate the Smelting Divine Demon Flames. The Smelting Divine Demon Flames would be strong enough to even burn eight- or nine-star martial artists!”

Jiang Yi’s heart was beating faster and faster. How scary was a flame that could destroy even eight- or nine-star martial artists? Of course, this was all a product of Jiang Yi’s imagination. He could not even activate the Nirvana Flames, much less the Smelting Divine Demon Flames.

The Nirvana Flames could burn Demigods who were seven-star and below. The Dwarf Race’s Qiu Shan was even below Mo Shen—he definitely was not an eight-star martial artist. Thus, Jiang Yi would be confident about wiping out the Dwarf Race if he could only activate the Nirvana Flames.

“Ai… let’s not think too much. Without the ice power, what can I use to activate it? I better improve my essence force first. It’s probably more realistic for me to look forward to improving my spirit in order to have better control over the Rainbow Soul Spear.”

As long as he could improve his essence force to that of a peak-stage Heaven Monarch, Jiang Yi was sure that his spirit would improve as well. Now, he could probably keep the Rainbow Soul Spear activated long enough to deal one attack. However, if he did not manage to kill Qiu Shan with that one attack, Jiang Yi would surely die. Thus, he had to keep himself in isolation for some time and break through the peak stage of the Heaven Monarch before he could think of anything else.

“Cultivate!”

Mo Yao’er was locked up, and Mo Shen seemed like he was in lock-up as well. Nobody was around to disturb Jiang Yi. Thus, he could train in peace.

After training for several months, the Heaven Devil Mountain became very peaceful. In a blink of an eye, six months passed.

This time, Mo Shen was really angry. Mo Yao’er had not appeared even once. Jiang Yi had trained for six months before his cultivation level had reached the eighth stage of the Heaven Monarch Realm. There was only half of the essence force left in the sixth star sphere. If there was to be any drastic change, Jiang Yi would probably have to train for another six months.

Swish!

Jiang Yi stopped training. While in the State of the Union of Heaven and Man, he searched around. After confirming that there was no one spying on him, he let the Rainbow Soul Spear out again. It turned into several images that danced around the main hall.

This time, after flying a total of thirty rounds, Jiang Yi finally felt weakened. He retrieved the Rainbow Soul Spear and closed his eyes to take a break. Then, he sighed gently. “My soul spirit has improved by a little bit, but it’s still not enough. Thirty-odd rounds would only get me about 3000 meters. If the enemy is further from me than that, I would still be severely weakened after dealing just one blow. Then, I would just be sitting there waiting to die.”

He remained seated for a while and entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man once again to check out the situation outside. He eavesdropped on several commanders talking and got the information he was looking for. Mo Yao’er was still in lock-up, and the Heaven Devil Mountain was still shut down. Nobody was allowed to descend the mountain. It was no use even if Jiang Yi decided to come out of isolation unless he decided to escape the heavens.

“I’ll keep training until I reach the peak stage of the Heaven Monarch Realm.”

Jiang Yi closed his eyes to continue training. This time, however, he was interrupted after just four months of training. Mo Yao’er had been let out.

“Mo Xing, I feel like your aura has improved by a significant amount. Are you comparable to a peak-stage Heaven Monarch now? My essence force has reached the eighth-stage of Heaven Monarchy as well.”

After Mo Yao’er entered, her divine senses landed on Jiang Yi; and she grinned. She looked down shyly and said softly, “Mo Xing, you’re at the peak stage of the Heaven Monarch Realm now. You can ask Majesty Father for my hand in marriage, and he will agree for sure. When that time comes, we can organize a huge wedding ceremony. He will make you the Young Clan Head for sure…”

“Wedding?”

Jiang Yi’s head was hurting now. Did he really have to go through with his act?

Could he marry her? Obviously not!
