Chapter 399: Powerful Sorcery

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ten thousand years ago, all the martial experts of the Azure Dragon Empire and the Heaven Star City were eradicated all of a sudden. At the same time, the six marshals rebelled and established their respective states. The Azure Dragon Empire supported a surviving child to be the king. The six marshals led the army and marched to the Heaven Star City. They were going to make the new king their puppet or might as well overthrow the Azure Dragon Empire and conquer the rest of the vassal states one by one.
Millions of troops besieged the Heaven Star City, but at last, no one dared to go in and went back in disgrace. The distribution of power on the continent continued to this day. Why the troops dared not to enter the Heaven Star City remained the biggest doubt in the hearts of the people on the continent.
After that, the Azure Dragon Empire ordered that there would be a Kingdom War among the six major vassal states on the Crystal Stone Plains every ten years. Even a fool could tell that the empire was trying to undercut the strength of the six major vassal states, to preserve and slowly build up its only power.
Even a fool could see through this. Naturally, the Kings of the six major vassal states understood the Empire’s hidden agenda. However, they went along and partook in the Kingdom War. They even created a minor Kingdom War after that!
This was another mystery on the continent!
Now, these two mysteries were solved. A super master was behind all these schemes: the Martial Arts Hall!
Dugu Yan indeed didn’t lie to him. The Martial Arts Hall was powerful, to the extent that it could rule the whole continent! When the Martial Arts Chief Hall Master gave a command, the kings of the six major vassal states dared not to disobey. The Martial Arts Chief Hall Master was equal to the uncrowned King of the continent!
It was just that…
Now, a new problem surfaced. How could the Martial Arts Hall become the uncrowned King of the continent? Now, there were so many formidable martial artists on the continent, including more than a dozen of Vajra Realm martial experts—let alone those in the past. The ancestors of Shui Youlan and the Empire should have reached the peak stage of the Vajra Realm. Could there be… any martial experts who were at the Heaven Monarch Realm in the Martial Arts Hall?
When Jiang Yi cast his doubt, Uncle Overlord pondered for quite some time before shaking his head. “I don’t really know the details. Only the Kings of the Empire know of such things. However, I don’t think there is any. The aura of a Heaven Monarch Realm martial expert is too powerful. Even Vajra Realm martial experts can’t conceal their aura. The strange thing is… the six vassal states didn’t detect any other Vajra Realm martial expert, except the Martial Arts Chief Hall Master.”
Jiang Yi asked doubtfully, “Uncle Overlord, shouldn’t there be some secret annals passed in the royal family? The first King of the Great Xia Kingdom should have recorded the event of that year.”
“Hehe.”
Su Ruoxue smiled bitterly and interrupted: “There were records. Unfortunately, before the army attacked the Summer Rain City, King Father burnt all the precious annals…”
“A pity…”
Jiang Yi sighed slightly. After all, this Uncle Overlord was not the King and didn’t know many of the top secrets. The annals were gone. It seemed like he could only go to the Mystic Heaven City and ask Yun Qingtian if he wanted to find out the truth.
“What are you—Martial Arts Hall?”
Jiang Yi murmured. He wasn’t really afraid of the Martial Arts Hall. Although he upset Dugu Yan, the Martial Arts Chief Hall Master clearly wouldn’t turn into his foe if he wasn’t an idiot—for Jiang Yi was quite important now.
It doesn’t matter anymore!
Got up suddenly, Jiang Yi excused himself and returned to his room to rest.
It was no use worrying about the inevitable. He had too many enemies. If the Martial Arts Hall wanted to be his enemy, he could do nothing to change it. Anyway, this was him. Wanting him to join the Martial Arts Hall? No way!
…
The time couldn’t catch up with the white horse and ticked away slowly. In a blink of an eye, ten days passed.
Qian Wanguan sent over some Stone Talisman Water again. Su Ruoxue bought some, too. She deployed more men to excavate the Divine Vein. There had been some speedy progress. More than a hundred celestial stones were dug out in ten days. In addition, only the left side of the Divine Vein was exploited. The right side and the front had yet to reach the boundary. No one knew how big the area was.
It was almost four months since Jiang Yi left the Witch God forbidden ground. If he didn’t go back now, the remnant soul of the Witch God might disappear from this world forever.
Jiang Yi forced a smile and said, “Ruoxue, I’m going to leave. I’ll be back as soon as I obtain the Witch God’s inheritance. Then we’ll get married immediately.” Looking at the reluctant Su Ruoxue, Jiang Yi’s heart was filled with bitterness.
Nodding repeatedly, Su Ruoxue held Jiang Yi closely and gave him a passionate kiss.
“Oh, that’s right!”
Jiang Yi was suddenly reminded of one thing. The Fire Spirit Pearl glowed, and a beautiful long sword and an exceedingly-sumptuous longbow appeared in his hand. These two weapons glistened with light and gave out an intimidating aura. They were not any ordinary objects, judging by just their looks. He passed the two weapons to Su Ruoxue and said, “They are the Saint Artifacts that I obtained from the Witch God forbidden ground. I’m giving you both. You can find a suitable one to refine whenever you have the time.”
“God-Shooter Bow?”
Su Ruoxue’s eyes immediately flickered; she took over the bow. She liked it so much that she couldn’t tear herself away from it. However, she didn’t accept it at last. Returning the bow back to Jiang Yi, she said, “Jiang Lang, this bow once belonged to a Heaven Monarch. It is said that anyone whom he aimed at would definitely die. This bow is too powerful. It’ll be a waste if I take it. You should keep it.”
“Me?”
Jiang Yi was used to wielding the Fire Dragon Sword. It was difficult for him to change to this bow. When Su Ruoxue saw through his hesitation, an idea suddenly struck her. “Why not give it to Sister Xiaonu? Maybe the bow will become more powerful in her hand?”
“That’s a great idea!”
Tossing the other sword to Su Ruoxue, Jiang Yi went to find Xiaonu hurriedly. He handed her the longbow and said, “Xiaonu, can you try refining this magical bow? You can fly after the transformation. With this bow, you’ll surely be ferocious.”
“What a beautiful bow!”
Jiang Xiaonu was also very fond of the bow. Giving out green energy on her hands, the bow actually glimmered faintly. Clearly, it could be easily refined by Xiaonu.
Jiang Yi took out an Ancient Divine Essence Ring from the Fire Spirit Pearl and handed it to Xiaonu. He told her to stay in the Summer Rain City and wait for him to return from the Witch God forbidden ground.
After seeing goodbye to Su Ruoxue, Jiang Xiaonu, and the little fox, Jiang Yi began his journey to the Witch God forbidden ground once again.
This time, he didn’t leave conspicuously by riding on the Yazi Beast. Instead, he quietly kept the Yazi Beast and took the underground passage from the royal palace. Other than Su Ruoxue, Jiang Xiaonu, the little fox, and He Lao, nobody knew he was gone—not even Eunuch Cao.
The human skin mask made by Su Ruoxue was taken out again. That puppet continued to pretend to be Jiang Yi and showed himself in the Summer Rain City so as to stabilize the army’s morale.
Jiang Yi went straight to the Netherworld Forest through the underground passage. He traveled day and night, only taking ten days to reach the Netherworld Forest. Entering the Universal Palace easily using his command token, he directly went to the top floor.
“Witch God, I’m back!”
He bowed deeply to the skeletons of the Witch God. The restrictions inside the palace immediately lit up, and an image was congealed. The image was obviously fainter. The Witch God’s voice resonated in the main hall. “Boy, if you come back one month later, I’m afraid that all my ancient sorcery will be lost. Stop the nonsense. Hurry up and memorize all these ten sorcery secrete manuals.”
Buzz!
Black characters appeared one after another on the jade white wall in front of Jiang Yi. He cleared all the distracting thoughts and read attentively. His mind was blown when he saw the first sorcery skill.
“Divine Perception—which can instantly amplify divine senses by a million times, easily searching for the whole continent secretly. Martial artists who have yet to reach the Heaven Monarch Realm are unable to detect them at all.”
The Yazi Beast had told Jiang Yi about this ancient sorcery before, but he didn’t expect that he would actually have the opportunities to learn such powerful sorcery. It could augment the divine senses a millionfold and couldn’t be perceived by Vajra Realm martial experts! This was one kick-ass sorcery skill. If he had such power, he would be invincible, even against Vajra Realm martial experts.
