Chapter 1014 - All to Remain
Chapter 1014: All to Remain
While Jiang Yi’s battle was coming to an end, Mo Yao’er’s fight here was still raging on.
Although Mo Yao’er and company did not dare to rush to the surface, the Dwarf Race was impeding their movement speed. There was no way they could flee. The formidable martial artists from all three races were also entering the underground area via the passageways, killing as they went. The fighting was horrifying. While Mo Qi and company had killed quite a number of people from the three races, half of Mo Yao’er’s company had also perished.
“Eh? The people above have been frozen again?”
Mo Qi and company were suffering terribly. While fleeing, they suddenly realized the tremors coming from the surface had stopped. Mo Qi used his divine senses and found that people were being frozen again. It was obvious that Jiang Yi had released his Icebound Thousand Miles again from far away; he had even frozen the people here.
“Shorty Qiu, why are your men so useless? I have not killed enough yet, and everyone is already dead? You guys are imbeciles. Hahaha.”
A short while later, a monstrous sound traveled from the south. That sound was produced from essence force, resounding in a ten-mile radius. It reverberated in the Ice Plains continuously.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Qiu Bai, Huo Gu, and company’s faces changed drastically. So many people were sent to kill Jiang Yi. Yet, Jiang Yi had arrogantly sent a message over to them. What did this mean? This meant that not only were those people unable to kill Jiang Yi, but they had also been captured or massacred by him.
“Young Clan Head, what should we do?”
An elder near Qiu Bai shouted frantically in a loud voice. Without killing Jiang Yi—even if they managed to capture Mo Yao’er and company, it would be for naught. The greatest threat came from Jiang Yi. If Jiang Yi escaped and broke through to the Demigod Realm, the Dwarf Race would definitely suffer.
“Huo Gu, Meng Da, let’s ignore this group of people and go kill Mo Xing first. Mo Yao’er and company are unable to escape as it is. As long as Mo Xing is dead, all would be over.”
Qiu Bai separately sent voice transmissions to the young clan heads of the Fire Chi Race and the Mammoth Race. Next, he ordered the elder next to him. “Go immediately 100 miles to the west from here to call for reinforcements. Tell them that if they do not help, we would all be dead; and Mo Xing would be able to escape.”
“To the west?”
The elder from the Dwarf Race blinked and said uncertainly, slightly unclear of the instructions. The Fire Chi Race and the Mammoth Race were both present. Who else could come to their aid? He stood still and asked curiously, “Young Clan Head, what reinforcements are there in the west?”
“Don’t ask so much! Once you are there, you will see people. Do as I say!”
Qiu Bai said coldly. He raised both his iron awls and shouted fiercely, “Everyone, listen! Let’s go and kill Mo Xing first.”
Swish! Swish!
The men from Fire Chi Race and Mammoth Race had left as well, heading south. The reason for the three races’ collaboration this time was the emergence of this prodigy from the Heaven Devil Race. Jiang Yi posed an enormous threat to all three races. For some great sects of the Snow Region, they could not tolerate the presence of two Demigods in one sect.
The three races numbered more than two thousand people. They became a black cloud as they dashed towards the south. All the various races watching from the sidelines also started heading in the same direction. How could they not pay attention to such a ferocious battle? Jiang Yi’s survival or death was very important to each race.
“What’s happening?”
Mo Qi realized that the attacks were becoming lesser and lesser. The three races had retreated from the underground. It felt a little ridiculous. When they used their divine senses, they realized that the formidable martial artists from the three races had all rushed southward.
“Not good… they are going to kill Mo Xing!”
Mo Yao’er realized that and went pale with shock. She turned and seemed to want to dash to the surface to rescue Jiang Yi. However, Mo Fu was faster than her. He whacked her on the back of the head once and knocked Mo Yao’er unconscious.
“Mo Fu, what are you doing?”
Mo Qi and company were astonished. They didn’t understand what had come over Mo Fu. However, Mo Fu said coldly, “The Sacred Lady’s safety is paramount. We cannot take any more risks. We must break through the encirclement and head back to Heaven Devil Mountain immediately.”
“How about Mo Xing?”
Mo Qi shouted loudly, “Mo Xing cannot die either. He is the hope of our race. Even if we all die, Mo Xing cannot.”
“Mo Qi, calm down!”
Mo Fu’s face was extremely serious as he said, “How much help can the few of us give Mo Xing? It is obvious that someone set this trap to kill him. Someone does not want him to continue growing. The mastermind this time is definitely not the three idiot young clan heads. There must still be a huge army and formidable martial artists stationed nearby. If we go and save him, we will just be giving our lives away. Mo Xing is extraordinarily strong. If he cannot escape, our presence will not help and might even hinder him. Now that no one is pursuing after us now, we should break out immediately to have a chance at survival.”
“This…”
Mo Qi and company were wavering. They had also guessed that the set-up this time was not the doing of the three young clan heads. The trio was not yet this capable. However, if they just left like this, they felt that it was not righteous. If Jiang Yi died in battle, it would be a huge loss to the Heaven Devil Race.
Mo Fu’s face darkened, and he said desperately, “If something were to happen to the Sacred Lady, even dying a thousand deaths will not be enough. Let’s believe in Mo Xing! He will not die that easily. Let’s go!”
As he said this, Mo Fu carried Mo Yao’er and dashed away. Mo Qi gritted his teeth and said helplessly, “Let’s go!”
The other elders and commanders could only follow the duo and run towards Heaven Devil Mountain. They had already lost half their men. If they still didn’t flee, there was really a possibility that all would perish. No one wanted to die; they could only secretly pray that Jiang Yi would be able to escape safely.
Jiang Yi was still encircled!
He high-kneed on the ground, using his sword to support his body from not collapsing. His body was full of blood, and he was still bleeding. His face was extremely pale. He could sense the army coming from the north; from the corner of his lips came a slight smile.
The blood on him was obviously from his enemies. The paleness on his face was also faked. He high-kneed at that spot precisely to wait for Qiu Bai and company to reach. He kept his eyes closed and entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man, checking the surroundings.
Ss, ss…
When Qiu Bai and company reached the heart of the battle, all of them took deep cold breaths. The battlefield was littered with broken limbs and internal organs; there was not one complete corpse. Fresh blood soaked the land. The fresh blood had also been frozen, making the surrounding ice all red, just like the dark red color of the soil. The stench of blood was particularly overpowering to the nose; it felt like hell.
“Mo Xing is injured! Kill him!”
One elder from the Dwarf Race shouted. All eyes turned to Jiang Yi and saw his slightly trembling body. Everyone’s eyes brightened. Without hesitation, all of them yelled, “Kill him!”
Swish! Swish!
More than two thousand people surged towards Jiang Yi like a moving tide. The Dwarf Race unleashed snow dragons and used their hammers to pound the surface, trying to trap Jiang Yi and prevent him from escaping. The Fire Chi Race and Mammoth Race spread out and tried to encircle Jiang Yi in a fan-like formation to kill him.
Thirty thousand feet, twenty thousand feet… ten thousand feet!
Jiang Yi finally opened his eyes. His blood-red eyes suited his blood-stained face perfectly. He looked exceptionally savage. He smiled and said, “All to remain!”
Wuu Wuu~Dong Dong!
The sound similar to a devil’s wail rang forth, followed by the unleashing of the Icebound Thousand Miles. Under this double attack, no one could resist. All the martial artists in the surrounding areas were all frozen.
“Astral Wind Blades! Go!”
Ten Astral Wind Blades transformed into Death God Blades. They swept forward and started another round of massacring.
When Qiu Bai, Huo Gu, and company’s soul spirits were unsealed, more than half of those who had come with them were dead. Qiu Bai was terrified. He retreated hurriedly and shouted, “Brother Duantian, if you don’t come soon, we are all going to die!”
