Chapter 433: Shocking Secret

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“What? There is an underwater plaza under the island? There is an underground world under that plaza, and it has countless zombies? The Devil Star Vines are actually nurtured by blood pools? It can consume the blood and automatically regenerate its body? The black aura could corrupt the flesh and turn people into zombies…?”
The ship was navigated towards the continent at a rapid speed. In one of the rooms, the four great experts all revealed expressions of astonishment after hearing Jiang Yi’s narration. Zhuge Qingyun had just regained consciousness, and he endured his injuries and came over. After hearing this information, he had already forgotten about the pain while his turbid eyes were filled with shock.
“Could—could that really be the Netherworld Realm?” Grandma Silver Flower blinked her eyes and spoke with a stuttering voice.
The Demon Empress glanced at Grandma Silver Flower with eyes of disdain. Shui Youlan shook her head slightly while Zhuge Qingyun shook his head firmly and said, “Crazy old woman, you are also considered a famed expert. How could you have such an addled brain? If that was the real Netherworld Realm, would Jiang Yi be able to escape? The Yin and Yang are separated, and if it is truly so easy to get into the Netherworld Realm, all those malicious spirits would be roaming the world!”
“You damned cripple, you dare reprimand me? If it wasn’t for me, you would have gone to the Netherworld Realm by now.” Grandma Silver Flower was infuriated and was about to stand up and flip out. Once she saw the Demon Empress glaring at her, she quickly sat back down.
Jiang Yi waved his hand as if asking Grandma Silver Flower to not be angered. His eyes flickered as he spoke, “What exactly is that underground world? How can the continent have such a world underneath it? Can there be even more horrifying existences in there? Why doesn’t it attack humans? Why are there so many zombies in there?”
The four of them went silent. The things that Jiang Yi spoke of were something that they had never heard or witnessed. Neither did they have the guts to go and explore it. With the Devil Star Vine around, even the Demon Empress would have to die in there. Furthermore, the underground world was truly boundless. Since it was able to nurture a terrifying creature like the Devil Star Vine, there must be more beings that were even more powerful.
These four experts were all knowledgeable, but they have never heard of such things. Wouldn’t it mean that no one in the entire continent knew about it? Everyone could feel their blood run cold at this moment… when they thought about such a horrifying world that was underneath the continent.
When they thought about how all those various horrors would rush out from underground and instantly turn all the humans and beast into zombies, they couldn’t help but feel a chill.
It was just that…
What could they do? Even if they gathered all the human experts and ventured down, what would they be able to do? The Demon Empress was going to die if she went down. Even if all the other human experts went down, they would all ultimately be buried down there.
It seems like this world has countless hidden secrets!
The Demon Empress sighed. She was about to leave this place and didn’t want to bother about all these things. She looked at Jiang Yi and transmitted a message: “Kid, don’t go anywhere else and just cultivate in Summer Rain City or the Fairy Peak. Since you already refined the celestial stones, then just continue doing it. Just go looking for some heaven-defying resources in the other continents that might be able to revert the side effects done by the celestial stones! I will return first, and I will come looking for you before I leave the continent.”
The Demon Empress then turned into a white figure and vanished into the distant horizon. Shui Youlan stood up and said, “Jiang Yi, I will return, too. Remember not to tell anyone about the matters in the underground world. Otherwise, it might cause a huge sensation on the continent. It might even result in severe consequences.”
“Oh, that’s right!”
Shui Youlan suddenly transmitted a message: “According to my conjecture, this incident where you were trapped by the Devil Star Vine was probably conspired by the Martial Arts Hall. You better be careful. An incredible Saint Lady has appeared in the Martial Arts Hall during this period of time. She has an abnormally high level of wisdom, and you have to be careful not to fall into her schemes.”
After Shui Youlan left, Jiang Yi stood in place and stared blankly. This incident was plotted by the Martial Arts Hall? Saint Lady? Was it Dugu Yan? It shouldn’t be… was there another Saint Lady? Why did the Martial Arts Hall plot to murder him? Would the Martial Arts Hall kill anyone that didn’t join their side?
Grandma Silver Flower left, too. Zhuge Qingyun stayed behind due to his serious injuries. Both Grandma Silver Flower and Zhuge Qingyun informed Jiang Yi that he must not reveal this incident. Hence, the incident of the underground world was kept hidden from Su Ruoxue, Qian Wanguan, and the others.
Similarly, he didn’t explain about the whereabouts of the Yazi Beast and Jiang Xiaonu. Especially Jiang Xiaonu. Shui Youlan and the Demon Empress were very curious about Jiang Xiaonu, but Jiang Yi didn’t say anything. He merely said that he had comprehended one of the Witch God’s sorcery arts and refined formidable flames which helped him to escape.
Everyone had their own secrets. If Jiang Yi didn’t want to reveal it, the others didn’t continue to pursue it. Moreover, everyone saw those dreadful flames. They might not know how Jiang Yi produced it, but he used to have the Fire Spirit Rock which was even more horrific. No one found anything strange.
After Jiang Yi attended to Zhuge Qingyun, he casually spoke with Qian Wanguan and the others. He didn’t mention anything about the underground world and just said that he comprehended a type of sorcery art which helped him escape. He left behind everyone with astonished expressions and walked into Su Ruoxue’s room.
“Sorcery art?”
Zhan Wushuang and Yun Fei looked at each other with dismay. A sorcery art which would restrain the Devil Star Vine that the Demon Empress couldn’t deal with? To what stage did he cultivate this sorcery art?
“Everyone, listen up. No one is to reveal this incident to anyone else. If anyone dares to even leak a single word, I—Zhan Wushuang—will use the power of my clan to kill them!”
Zhan Wushuang’s eyes suddenly flickered and gave a severe order. Qian Wanguan and Yun Fei also reacted accordingly and gave their orders with grave expressions. Jiang Yi had too many enemies. If other people knew about this, they would definitely prepare more plots and conspire against him.
…
In fact—!
When Jiang Yi just escaped from the underwater plaza, the Martial Arts Hall already knew about it.
In one of the grand halls in the Hades Abyss, the two doyens, Ji Tingyu, and Dugu Yan were seated beside a white crystal ball that had an image within it. The image was displaying the vast and borderless underwater plaza. The plaza was filled with flat stone walls, and there were luminous pearls in the corners. This was apparently the place where Jiang Yi was held.
From below the underwater plaza, Jiang Yi’s figure suddenly instant-shifted out. He scanned the plaza and quickly instant shifted upwards, where he was followed behind by a giant Devil Star Vine which burst out from below. Shortly after, the Devil Star Vine withdrew; and the top portion of it appeared to be charred and was oozing with black fluid.
“This, this…”
Dugu Yan had a startled expression and spoke with disbelief, “Jiang Yi—Jiang Yi actually escaped? How is this possible? How could he possibly escape? Even the Devil Star Vine couldn’t kill him?”
The two doyens had grave expressions. If the Devil Star Vine couldn’t kill Jiang Yi, then who else in this world could? Could he have reached the strength of a peak-stage Heaven Monarch?
“Impossible!”
The thought rose up, but one of the doyens quickly denied it.
What a joke!
If Jiang Yi was able to rapidly increase his strength to the Heaven Monarch Realm in two days, this world would be crawling with Heaven Monarch Realm absolute experts. No matter how heaven-defying he was, he wouldn’t be able to strengthen himself so quickly, right?
“Ke-Ke!”
Ji Tingyu let out a light laugh while her beautiful eyes narrowed into a fine seam as she spoke, “Jiang Yi isn’t so incredible. He must have relied on that rock that could release flames, right? Don’t think of him as such a horrific existence. His might have some talents, but it isn’t at such a heaven-defying level.”
“That’s right, that’s right! He is just a lucky bastard!”
Dugu Yan nodded with pouting lips and spoke in a way that seemingly tried to console herself, “If it wasn’t for the fact that he obtained some artifacts in the Tomb of the Heaven Monarch and the Witch God’s forbidden ground, he wouldn’t be worth sh*t. Hurhur!”
“Do not say it like this.”
One of the doyens shook his head and said, “If it was just one incident, then it would be luck. If it was two, three, or four incidents, then it isn’t just luck anymore. Is there an absolute expert in history that relied on artifacts? Jiang Yi must have a shocking secret hidden in his body…”
