“I’m improving so quickly. It’s no wonder that the disciples of great family clans don’t bother to train their essence force!”
Inside the Mystic Divine Palace, Jiang Yi felt his essence force expanding quickly. He was unbelievably overjoyed. Back when he was on the Tang Clan’s Heaven Fate Ship, training in their thousand-time secret cultivation room, he already felt good about the rate he was progressing. Now, he was progressing about a hundred times faster. Every pore in his body was absorbing essence force from around him. His muscles, bones, and veins were all filled with thick essence force. The feeling was second to none.
“What a pity that this seventh star sphere requires so much more essence force. Even at this rate of progress, I have to train for two and a half more months. Do I have that much time?”
Once he swallowed ten Saint Beast’s blood essence and refined that Thousand Thearch’s Shield, Jiang Yi would probably be able to make it through the meteorite-killing formation in the Void Ancient Path. He began to wonder about the situation outside. Once Xing Mo gets out, he would surely act immediately. Thus, Jiang Yi had to move the moment he felt confident enough. He could not afford to delay any longer.
Five days passed. The restrictions outside lit up. Jiang Yi paused his training and teleported out. Indeed, the Saint Emperor was back. He brought with him a huge bird. The wings and legs of this bird were all broken. A lot of its feathers, which resembled little blades, had dropped off as well. The bird fell to the ground, crying out in pain.
“This is a Kun Peng Beast. I just caught it. Young Lord, take in its blood essence.”
The Saint Emperor spoke with his booming voice. He looked exhausted. Curiously, Jiang Yi scanned his face and asked, “Long Qu, is this really a Kun Peng Beast? Don’t they fly? How did you catch it?”
“Hehe!”
The Saint Emperor grinned and said, “These beasts do fly, but the space here is too solid. The gravity is extremely strong as well. Even Kun Peng Beasts cannot soar in the air for too long. I traveled as fast as I could to chase this beast down for days. I waited for it to fall down to the ground before I caught it. Young Lord, quick, drink its essence. I have to go and catch another beast for you soon.”
“Lao Qu, thank you!” Jiang Yi nodded gratefully. Long Qu waved his hand and said, “Young Lord, don’t stand on ceremony with me. If not for you, the people of this continent would be dead for sure. This is the least I can do.”
Jiang Yi stopped talking any further. He asked one of the Chieftains to grab the Kun Peng Beast and then retrieved his Fire Dragon Sword. He stabbed a wound in the Kun Peng Beast’s neck several times and then immediately entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man to absorb the blood essence of this Kun Peng Beast.
It took a whole hour for Jiang Yi to finally absorb it. Someone carried Jiang Yi in once again. By then, all the Chieftains in the city had gathered. They waited for the Saint Emperor to leave before they grabbed the Kun Peng Beast and distributed its meat. The blood on the floor was absorbed by the children of these Chieftains within seconds.
On seeing that Jiang Yi had completely absorbed the blood essence, the Saint Emperor ran off without rest. In his heart, Jiang Yi was his master. Jiang Yi’s problems were the only problems he cared about. Thus, he had to do his best to help him, even if it meant being exhausted to death.
Just like that, Jiang Yi kept training and waiting for the Saint Emperor to return with more saint beasts. The Xuan Thearch helped him to destroy the spiritual imprint that Xing Mo left behind in the Thousand Thearch Shield. The Buddha Thearch kept trying to realize the Higher Domain Mystical Ability that Yi Piaopiao left behind for the Xuan Thearch. The Yin Thearch, the Night Empress, the Buddha Emperor, and the others kept training day and night as well, trying their best to force the talisman poison out of their bodies and recover as much of their battle skills as they could.
All of them were actually training to try and distract themselves from thinking about what was happening outside. Xing Mo had returned. Who knew if he would kill their families? If he did, all the disciples in their clans would perish for sure. Who knew if they would go back to an empty continent?
…
Time passed extremely fast. In a blink of an eye, more than twenty days were gone.
Xing Mengwan did not do anything to the clans. All the disciples in those clans were very obedient. All of them joined the alliance army and received training. This was thanks to the Buddha Emperor and company’s instructions. Since the time had come for war, Xing Mengwan wanted to avoid punishing the clan members as much as possible for fear of hurting the army’s morale.
Still, the elders of the various clans were smart. They secretly moved the elite disciples from their clans to the Snow Region, into the Heaven Hidden Sect. At least then if their clans perished during the war, they would still have descendants carrying on the family name.
Since the Beast Thearch was in charge of monitoring them, he naturally noticed these little movements. Still, he pretended not to have seen anything.
During this time, he found many spies, including Qi Tianchen. Thankfully, Qi Tianchen was prepared for this. He sent many disciples away, not to the Endless Deep Sea, but to the Snow Region. Hu Danni and her two children were gone as well, thankfully without any harm.
The day after Qi Tianchen was found out, the Black Flag City was surrounded by the army. Four hours after the war began, all the formidable martial artists left behind in Black Flag City were killed. Qi Tianchen killed about three Demigods of the alliance army and, at last, had himself killed by the Beast Thearch. The corpses of Qi Tianchen and the elders of the Qi Clan were still hanging outside the North Thearch City, causing everyone who walked by to be alarmed.
Another great family clan was exposed as well, and it was an ancient family clan at that.
That clan’s clan head was planted by the Shadow Emperor as well. He was only one of three people who knew where Jiang Yi was. This clan did not make it in time to move some people over to the Snow Region so its entire family was wiped out. Everyone, young and old, numbered up to ten thousand people. They were all killed mercilessly by the army led by the Beast Thearch.
The Shadow Emperor controlled up to three family clans in the continent. The Sonar Thearch escaped long ago, the Qi Clan was killed, and now the last clan had fallen as well. The Shadow Emperor lost all his eyes on the continent. The demons who moved into the continent secretly had also been killed. They suffered huge losses.
Not only spies were killed!
The Xuan Clan was one of the Ten Ancient Clans and was also one of the clans who took over the cities south of the Wu Clan. The Xuan Clan Head seemed to have discovered something and refused to join the alliance army. He expressed his wishes to back out, but when the Beast Thearch found out about this, he killed more than ten elders of the clan. At last, the Young Clan Head of the Xuan Clan intelligently sent a voice transmission to the Beast Thearch, promising that he would be loyal to the North Thearch to the point of death. With that, the Beast Thearch finally showed mercy on the Xuan Clan and let the remaining people live.
A few other family clans wanted to back out of the battle as well, but all of them were wiped out without exception. The North Thearch also gave orders throughout the continent that whoever wanted to back out of the army would be seen as being in cahoots with the demons.
The thing that Tang Shenji and company were most worried about was happening. The North Thearch, Sword Thearch, Beast Thearch, and Xing Mengwan were taking the chance while the human race was in trouble to suppress the Human Race Alliance Army with an iron hand. Nobody dared to hold a different opinion from the four of them, much less to defy their orders. If they did, they knew they would end up as one of the human heads hanging outside North Thearch City.
Nobody wanted the human race to perish. All the Demigods from the various clans joined the army and were being disciplined outside their clans. Without other leaders and without family clans voicing out their opinions, the North Thearch had full control of the situation. No one dared to mess around for fear of being struck by the iron hand.
A whole month passed!
Tens of millions of soldiers were on the move. The North Thearch City brought the Sword Thearch, Beast Thearch City, and Xing Mengwan out personally. They teleported day and night. Three days later, they arrived at Yin Thearch City. Millions of Heaven Fate Ships ascended into the air, filling the sky. The sky above Yin Thearch City became dull.
Ordinary Heaven Monarchs, who had no idea what was going on behind the scenes—as well as the civilians of Yin Thearch City, were overjoyed. All formidable martial artists were taking part in the Holy War this time. The North Thearch said that he was confident that the Human Race Alliance Army would emerge victorious!
The second Holy War in Stellarsky Domain began. This time, all humans and demons were prepared to battle to the death. There was going to be definite bloodshed in Stellarsky Domain.
The North Thearch was dressed in white, full-body armor. He looked very elegant and exceedingly impressive. He stood on the deck in the biggest Heaven Fate Ship right in front, the wind blowing him from the back. As he stood there, he scanned the countless Heaven Fate Ships in front of him. His face was red from excitement. As he waved his hand, he shouted, “Let’s go. If we don’t annihilate all the demons in the Endless Deep Sea this time, we will not retreat!”
