Novel Full Chapter 1175: Using Brute Force to Break the Formation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It had been a month!
Jiang Yi had been trapped for a full month. He had thought of many ideas in the Mystic Divine Palace, but he ultimately still came up naught. It was only the previous day that he finally thought of a method that… wasn’t really a method.
That was… to use brute force and break the formation!
As he did not understand array formation restrictions, it was impossible for him to think of a way to overcome the formation. This formation could continuously absorb the energy of the sky thunder; he could not depend solely on the Mystic Divine Palace to smash his way through. He could only depend on his own strength and powers to ram his way through.
The Mystic Divine Palace’s ramming power had its limits; of course, at the moment, Jiang Yi’s attacking power had not yet surpassed that of the Mystic Divine Palace’s. However, he still had time; he still had five months that he could think of a way to increase his strength.
It had been a month; no one had come to help him break through the formation. The formation was too strong; Jiang Yi did not expect that anyone could help him. He could only rely on himself. If he could not break through the formation in five months; he, Jiang Yunhai, Shui Youlan, Qian Gui, and the rest would all have to die!
Using brute force to break through!
Jiang Yi was naturally not daydreaming; he had his secret weapons: the transformed Fire Dragon Sword and the Mystic Divine Armor.
As long as he broke through to the Demigod Realm, these two weapons would be his to use and command. The Mystic Divine Armor would protect him from being struck by lightning bolts while the Mystic Divine Saber itself was a divine artifact that had been enhanced after being swallowed by the Fire Dragon Sword. If he could command the Mystic Divine Saber, it was possible he could break through this formation.
He still had hope.
Hoo-Hoo!
Jiang Yi took a deep breath and entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man. He quietened his heart and did not think about anything else. He used all his energy and started to concentrate to realize the ‘Night Sea’ Heaven Painting. If he could realize this Heaven Painting, he would possess at least a three-star or above dao pattern. At that time—once he congealed his god spirit, he would become a Demigod.
“Night Sea, what secrets are you hiding?”
Jiang Yi navigated the Mystic Divine Palace to evade the lightning bolts within Stupa City while also locked on to the Night Sea painting as he quietly started to decipher it. His mind was empty as he forgot about the imminent life or death situation, Yi Chan, Yin Ruobing, and Su Ruoxue. He forgot about the World-Destroying Sky Thunder Formation and the mastermind; he forgot everything as he silently settled his heart to reside inside the ‘Night Sea’.
Jiang Yunhai and company within the Mystic Thearch Pavilion were also very patient and calm; only Yun Xian had curiously started to look about. The ancient artifacts and pseudo-divine artifact originally in the palace had been kept by Jiang Yi. If Yun Xian played around with them, he might actually be hurt by them.
Be that as it may, Yun Xian was still utterly engrossed by the Saint Artifacts hanging along the walls of the palace. Young people were after all full of curiosity when they came across new things and could swiftly forget about the past and could adjust their temperaments accordingly.
“How strong has the Supreme Marshal of the Empire become? Could he have become a high-level Thearch Emperor? Could his powers have reached the legendary peak-stage Heaven Monarch? How is it that he had so many treasures…?”
Yun Xian sighed with emotion; when the true dragon leaves the sea in the Stellarsky Continent, he could similarly make a name for himself outside. Yun Xian did not know how many continents there were outside or what the world was like. In his mind, the peak-stage Heaven Monarch was already the strongest there was. If he knew that Jiang Yi’s enemies were peak-stage Demigods and among the Nine Thearchs of the East Imperial Continent, he would probably be scared out of his wits.
“Xian’er, sit down and cultivate; stop walking about. The heaven and earth essence energy in this place is very concentrated; make good use of this opportunity to cultivate.”
Yun Tianqing was more mature as he seriously reprimanded Yun Xian. First becoming the King of Heaven Mystics Kingdom then the Emperor, Yun Tianqing was naturally very intelligent and bright. He, Jiang Yunhai, Shui Youlan, Qian Gui, Zhan Yiming, and company could see that Jiang Yi had encountered a huge problem; if not, he would not have left hurriedly after only exchanging a few words with the group.
“Everyone need not be too worried!’
Shui Youlan saw the serious look on Yun Tianqing’s face and tried to comfort everyone, saying, “Lady Piaopiao was an absolute genius with astonishing powers; her background is also not ordinary. Her child would naturally be a True Dragon. Jiang Yi managed to make a name for himself on the Stellarsky Continent within a mere few years and now have accomplished so much in the outside world. This Stellarsky Domain cannot contain him. We have to trust him. Let’s all settle down and cultivate and rest.”
Qian Gui, Zhan Yiming, and Jiang Rentu’s eyes all lit up. They stopped talking and closed their eyes to rest and cultivate.
In a blink of an eye, another month had passed.
A thirty-million strong army had already assembled outside Yin Thearch City; they were all Heaven Monarchs. Tents were pitched across the entire plains outside the city; there was no end to them. The number of clan banners and flags were uncountable as tens of thousands of carts of food were being consumed every day. Fortunately, the Nine Thearch Clans did not lack in money. Together with the support of the wealthiest Tang Clan, the amount of money spent on food was negligible.
Every Heaven Monarch martial artist that had come all received their one million celestial stones as well as a transcending saint artifact. After this news had spread, even more people were attracted to join in the battle. The Tang Clan, the Zhan Clan, and the Wu Clan formidable martial artists started to form the alliance army and practice offensive and defensive formations.
If everyone surged forward messily in such a big-scale battle as this—not only would they not be able to kill the enemy, but they might even easily hurt their own. Without strict adherence to orders and military formations—if they were routed, the entire army would collapse like dominoes.
The Battle Thearch and North Thearch’s decision to mobilize three months later was also for the sake of organizing the martial artists into troops and an army, to fully maximize the potential of the martial artists present. After all, the Endless Deep Sea was the demon race’s territory. If they could not control the alliance army with ease, they would easily be crushed by the demon race.
All the absolute martial artists of each clan on the continent have, more or less, been assembled. The Battle Thearch and company had formed the command center of the alliance; they debated battle tactics and strategies day and night. They already had more than thirty proposals on hand. Once the three months were up and the alliance army had been gathered, they would head out.
Those of Yi Chan’s people that were made to leave have all left. The first wave had already set up camp in the Snow Region. The Saint Empress had sent men to personally welcome them; no one in the Snow Region had dared to mess around with the Yi Clan members. The first batch found a piece of territory close to Saint Mountain and started to build their houses and castles, to build a new city from scratch.
Recently, the Snow Region had also been rather tense. The Yi Clan had moved there while Sin Island’s Thirteen Clans had also started their move to Snow Region. This had upset the power balance in the Snow Region. What if the Yi Clan or the Thirteen Clans snatched Saint Mountain?
However, that strike from the Saint Empress back then had frightened the Snow Region’s Ten Sects; no one dared to voice out their opinions. They could only watch as the Yi Clan and the Thirteen Clans made camp and as territory was set aside for them to build their homes.
Saint Empress gave Jiang Yi plenty of face; she had personally brought a group of Demigods and built two spirit concentration arrays near Saint Mountain as well as two defensive formations. These guaranteed the safety of the Yi Clan and the Thirteen Clans. In merely slightly more than a month, two new cities had appeared within five thousand kilometers of Saint Mountain, on opposite ends. After all, the Yi Clan and the Thirteen Clans were mortal enemies; now, they had to live under the same roof with the two cities being only ten thousand kilometers apart.
At the same time, the Saint Empress also built an illusion array nearby and prevented news from leaking. However, as the East Imperial Continent was in a mess now, no one deigned to bother about the happenings of the Snow Region; and no news of the Yi Clan and the Thirteen Clans had spread. No one had tried to attack them in transit.
“Jiang Yi, this is the best I can do for you!”
After settling everything, Saint Empress returned to the Heaven Hidden Sect. As she sat inside the pavilion near the small lake and watched the waters ripple, she sighed and said, “I cannot break through the World-Destroying Sky Thunder Formation; I cannot save you either. If you cannot break through this formation, I can only help you to preserve your clan and loved ones.
“Lady Piaopiao!”
The Saint Empress suddenly looked to the skies and shouted, “You had arranged so many things and had been right about many things; did you predict that such a calamity would befall the Stellarsky Domain?”
