“En?”
He Lao outside suddenly opened his eyes and scanned the surroundings with lightning speed. Soon, he appeared shocked and rushed towards Jiang Yi directly.
The Yazi Beast in a distance was also alerted. It only opened its eyes and took a glance before continuing to sleep, unconcerned.
“This…”
Jiang Yi opened his eyes at the moment. The brilliance in his eyes got stronger. Jiang Xiaonu did not dare to look him in the eyes anymore. It was also very magical that there were two faintly visible swords deep down his eyes.
“Young Master Yi? You even possess divine senses?”
He Lao exclaimed. Jiang Yi stood up and walked out, asking with amazement, “This is divine sense? How is that possible?”
Divine senses!
This was a very powerful magical ability which was only possessed by Vajra Realm martial experts. Divine senses could look into the situation unknowingly, penetrate the ground and stone walls, and explore everything within 30 kilometers.
The problem was that Jiang Yi had yet to reach the Vajra Realm; how could he have divine sense?
“Yazi Beast!”
Jiang Yi reminded of the unconcerned look of the Yazi Beast. He flew towards it and asked by its sides, “Demon king, why did my soul suddenly transform and possess divine senses?”
“Hmph!”
The demon king hummed slightly and said sulkily, “The Sweet Flag Leaf that you have refined is one of the cardinal treasures for soul spirits. It does not belong to the Stellarsky Continent and is several times stronger than any soul spirit treasure on the continent. Otherwise, why did you manage to absorb energy continuously for a month?”
“Ah?”
Jiang Yi had no idea that this Sweet Flag Leaf was so powerful that it could improve his soul spirit to the level of a Vajra Realm martial expert.
It did not originate from the Stellarsky Continent?
Jiang Yi’s eyes glistened as he thought of this. He asked repeatedly, “Demon King, have you left the Stellarsky Continent with the Witch God? What is the outside world like? Are there many continents like this?”
“Not sure!”
Yazi Beast rolled it eyes and answered sullenly, “Master and I only took a round near the continent and did not dare to go very far. There were so many powerful sea demons deep down the sea. Even with our strength, we dared not to wander around and only found several historical sites where we obtained some treasures…”
Damn!
Jiang Yi and He Lao looked at each other in speechless despair. The Witch God broke through the Heaven Monarch Realm back then, which was just not known to the people outside. He devoted his heart to achieve a more powerful realm and did not want to unite the continent; otherwise, the continent would already be his.
A Heaven Monarch Realm martial expert and a peak-stage demon king dared not to explore the deep sea. One could only imagine how powerful the sea demons in the deep sea were.
“Are there really a lot of demon thearchs in the deep sea?”
Wondering secretly, Jiang Yi was about to ask the demon king more about the deep sea. Who would have thought that the demon king suddenly stood up and burst out his violent aura? Its eyes, filled with chilling intent, stared at the sea in the east. It appeared to be waiting for a strong enemy.
“En?”
Jiang Yi and He Lao followed the demon king’s direction, but the sea was calm with nothing suspicious. Before the two asked, the demon king shouted, “Flee! Many sea demons are coming! There are two or three demon kings among them. I will resist them for a while. You run to the direction of Starfall Island immediately!”
“Sea demons? Demon kings?”
Jiang Yi and He Lao were horrified with shrunken eyes. They were somewhere not counted as ‘deep sea’. Even if there were sea demons, they were at most at tier-three. How could several demon kings attack them together with a large number of sea demons?
The sea demons were deliberately lured here by someone!
A glimmer of coldness flashed past Jiang Yi’s eyes. The Demon Empress said that those groups of people might have strange moves. They dared not to act noticeably so they secretly attracted a bunch of sea demons to kill Jiang Yi and his group. In this way, the demon empress and Shui Youlan could not accuse them of anything.
Swish!
Whether he was set up, Jiang Yi dared not to stay long. He rushed to Jiang Xiaonu like a cheetah, picked up the Green Clear Vase, and took in Jiang Xiaonu and He Lao. Then, he shifted towards the direction of Starfall Island instantly.
Roar! Roar!
The Yazi Beast released all of its aura completely. Its giant body rose to the sky and spun above the sea island. It constantly opened its mouth and howled, seemingly warning the enemy.
Buzz!
Jiang Yi gleamed with white light and disappeared in the previous place. The next second, he was tens of kilometers away.
He looked at the faraway sea island in slight disbelief, but he was then reminded that his soul had progressed so much, correspondingly the distance of the instant shift should progress as well. Jiang Yunhai had told him that his mother could instant-shift to places several tens of kilometers away.
“Koo-Koo!” “Thump-Thump!” “Chatter-chatter!”
Many strange sounds came from the sea in the east abruptly. Jiang Yi glanced over and was horrified.
The seawater in the east started to surged violently. Soon enough, the water was rolled up by thousands of waves. One after another, huge beasts rushed through the waves. Their terrifying beast presence shrouded the area within 50 kilometers.
Tonight was cloudy, and the moon was obscured. These sea demons appeared very blurry. Their pairs of chilling eyes were extremely eye-catching. Looking at them, Jiang Yi was pierced by the cold as if he fell into an ice house.
“Run—!”
When Jiang Yi saw the Yazi Beast dash towards the endless and densely-packed sea demons with violent auras, he did not hesitate anymore. He could sense two powerful presences among those sea demons. Needless to say, they were definitely at the level of the demon kings. Jiang Yi shifted instantly and fled towards the north without looking back.
“Roar! Roar!”
“Wu-Wu!”
“Ka-Ka!”
The wars between the Yazi Beast and that group of sea beasts soon began. Though Jiang Yi did not dare to look, he could hear the violent explosions, the roars of the Yazi Beast and other sea demons, and the crashing sound of the sea water being lifted up by tens of thousands of feet of waves and falling heavily. An aura of terror came from there as well, causing Jiang Yi’s instant shift to become faster.
“Hu-Hu!”
Jiang Yi fled for about several hundred kilometers in a row and could not hear the movement over there. The sea demons were not pursuing him, which made him sigh with relief. He stopped on a small island and looked at the direction of the war worriedly. The Yazi Beast was indeed strong, but could it escape while facing two demon kings?
He was still unable to fight with the demon kings with his current strength. He did not foolishly remain there to be killed. He was troubled with whether to wait here for the Yazi Beast or go to the Starfall Island by instant shift and wait for the demon king to find him?
The next second—!
There was no need for Jiang Yi to think about it!
The sea in the east suddenly surged, and then many sea beasts flew out and darted towards Jiang Yi frenetically. One of them was fully covered by black scales and looked a lot like a sea lion, effusing a petrifying aura. It was obviously the demon king!
Flee!
Jiang Yi’s expression instantly changed. His body shone with white light, and he was doing instant shift frantically. It was clear to him that if the demon king came anywhere near him, he would definitely die!
“Roar! Roar!”
That Sea Demon King had its murderous cold eyes fixed on Jiang Yi. Seeing him instant-shifting, it immediately roared in fury towards the sky. Two black wings unexpectedly appeared on its back. It turned into black lightning and galloped towards Jiang Yi with frightening speed.
Jiang Yi’s instant-shift distance increased tenfold. With the current relentless instant-shifting, his speed was absolutely comparable to Vajra Realm Martial Experts. This Sea Demon King was clearly a bit faster than Jiang Yi. If the Yazi Beast did not return, Jiang Yi would be hunted down by this Sea Demon King within five minutes and then… ruthlessly slaughtered!
