Boom! Boom! Boom!
The soul swords in Jiang Yi’s soul spirit sea were clashing vigorously, and that black shadow was very fast. However, the power wasn’t overwhelming and had been crushed by Jiang Yi’s soul swords easily. Jiang Yi finally understood that the black shadow wasn’t a monster but a type of soul spirit attack!
“Who is sneaking an assault on me?”
Jiang Yi’s eyes turned cold as he scanned the surroundings with his divine senses and quickly noticed a few miles underground to the left, there was a fleeting shadow!
“There is someone? Great!”
Jiang Yi was greatly delighted as he was actually able to find someone in this uninhabited place. This was extremely great news, and this person should be a citizen of the Savage Snow Region. This person was of a special race and had razor-sharp claws allowing for swift underground travel. This person definitely wasn’t from the Wu Clan as they wouldn’t just send a single individual to assault and kill him.
“Chase!”
Jiang Yi struck out the astral winds with a single hand and condensed a few astral wind blades to dig underground. The wind blades were too sharp, and even the steel-like surface of the ground had been dug silently. Jiang Yi’s body then rushed to the underground along with the astral wind blades. At the same time, three of the dark gold soul blades flew out from his glabellum. Since his enemy had used soul spirit attack to assault him, he was retaliating with an eye for an eye, comparing whose soul spirit attack was stronger.
This person’s cultivation realm wasn’t high and should only be at the first stage of Heaven Monarch Realm, but the underground travel speed was very fast. Jiang Yi, who was at the third stage of Heaven Monarch Realm, could only maintain the same speed as that person. That person’s claws were very sharp, and even though Jiang Yi’s astral wind blades were already extremely powerful, Jiang Yi’s digging speed still wasn’t as fast as that person!
“Divine Voice Heaven Skill!”
As the flexible sword appeared in Jiang Yi’s hand, he released the Divine Sound Heaven Skill; and his enemy couldn’t take it anymore. The horrific sound penetrated the ground and traveled over, causing that person’s speed to decrease. When Jiang Yi had closed in until a distance of three kilometers, that person couldn’t even move anymore as he hugged his head and tumbled in the tunnel while howling in pain.
Swish!
Jiang Yi approached quickly, and the soul swords rushed into that person’s soul spirit sea, allowing Jiang Yi to kill him at any moment. The astral wind blades had also ruptured the enemy’s divine shield effortlessly. Jiang Yi used a single hand to grasp this person’s neck and flew to the surface. This person’s eyes flashed with two rays of black light which were shot at Jiang Yi’s head.
“Hur-Hur!”
This person’s soul spirit attack wasn’t bad, but Jiang Yi still had nine soul swords which were enhanced by the Butterfly’s Spring and was extremely powerful. Once the nine golden soul swords intersected, the two rays of black energy were dissipated easily.
Chi! Chi!
This person’s attack had infuriated Jiang Yi, and with a flash of the flexible sword, it was ruthlessly stabbed into this person’s dantian before being rippled. That person yelled with agony while his black eyes glared at Jiang Yi and roared with fury, “Kid, you dare cripple me? You are finished. If you offend our Heaven Devil Sect, no one will be able to save you in this Savage Snow Region even if there is a god!”
“Heaven Devil Sect? Heaven Hidden Sect?”
Jiang Yi’s mind shook. Were these two sects the same?
Jiang Yi burst out of the ground, grabbed this person by the leg, and smashed him into the ground. After repeatedly smashing for more than ten times, this person’s head was bleeding profusely; and many of his bones had been broken. He then knelt down with both palms together. Jiang Yi looked at him and spoke coldly, “I will ask you one thing, and you will reply to me that one thing. If you don’t speak, I will cut off one of your hands!”
“Is the Heaven Devil Sect the Heaven Hidden Sect?”
Jiang Yi asked a question, but that person was dazzled after getting smashed by Jiang Yi couldn’t even regulate his breathing, only managing to recover a trace of breath after a long time. His eyes were filled with bitter resentment and were staring at Jiang Yi without saying a single word.
Chi! Chi!
The green flexible sword flashed and produced a green light which severed one of this person’s arms. Jiang Yi didn’t have any change in expression and continued to ask, “Is the Heaven Devil Sect the Heaven Hidden Sect?”
“Ah, Ah!”
That person bawled with pain and still didn’t say a word. Jiang Yi was also very resolute as the green light flashed again and chopped off a hand. He had always been ruthless towards his enemy, but he seldom used torture. This time, it was different. He knew nothing about the Savage Snow Region, and he didn’t ask for information—let alone searching for the Heaven Hidden Sect. He would be in deep trouble if the Heaven Devil Sect was going to hunt him.
“You don’t have any more hands, but you still have legs, your tintin1, tongue, ears, and nose. I will ask you again, and if you don’t say anything, I will chop off everything one by one. I am proficient in 18,000 types of torture methods, and I am prepared to try all of them on you today!”
When Jiang Yi’s bone-chilling voice echoed, that person’s face instantly lost all traces of blood before he gritted his teeth and said, “I am unable to say anything about the Heaven Devil Sect’s situation. Otherwise, my clan will all be killed. I can say about other things, but… you have to swear not to kill me.”
“I’m sorry!”
Jiang Yi shook his head and said, “You must die, but I can give you a straightforward death. Give it some consideration. Don’t even think about killing yourself as you will not be able to do it with me here.”
Releasing the tiger back to the mountain? Letting this person return to the Heaven Devil Sect to bring men to hunt him? Jiang Yi wasn’t a fool and being merciful would only make it worse. Since this person launched a sneak attack on Jiang Yi, then he should be prepared for death too.
Looking at Jiang Yi’s icy-cold eyes, that person gritted his teeth and nodded. Jiang Yi asked, “Very good. Is the Heaven Devil Sect the Heaven Hidden Sect?”
“No!”
That person shook his head and said, “The Savage Snow Region has many sects, and the Heaven Hidden Sect is the strongest sect. Our Heaven Devil Sect might be famed and is outstanding, but compared to the Heaven Hidden Sect, we are still lacking quite a bit.”
Jiang Yi’s eyes flashed with brilliance and nodded, “Where is the Heaven Hidden Sect?”
“Not sure!”
That person closed his eyes and said, “Apart from our Sect Patriarch, no one else knows where the Heaven Hidden Sect is. The Heaven Hidden Sect is too mysterious, and there are truly just a few individuals who knew where is their location. Even if they knew, they only knew a rough location and weren’t able to make it inside the Heaven Hidden Sect. The Heaven Hidden Sect is ranked no.2 in the top ten concealed great factions.”
“Uh…”
Jiang Yi’s brows lifted. This Heaven Hidden Sect was actually so powerful? He paused for a moment and asked, “Tell me more information about the Heaven Hidden Sect.”
That person took a deep breath and said, “We do not know too much about the Heaven Hidden Sect. We just know that their entire sect is formed with women, and almost all of them had special astral bodies. I heard they have a few dozen Demigod experts, and their Matriarch is an existence that is comparable to the Nine Thearchs. Their sect hates men the most. Hurhur… I advise you not to look for the Heaven Hidden Sect. Even if you can find them, if you dare to trespass, you will certainly die.”
“All women? Hates men the most?”
Jiang Yi was astonished and immediately let out a silent breath of relief as Su Ruoxue should be rather safe in the Heaven Hidden Sect. He didn’t expect the Heaven Hidden Sect to have so many Half Gods, and if he entered their territory, he would be immediately executed. Jiang Yi had a headache again. What should he do to find Su Ruoxue?
Jiang Yi inquired about the information in Savage Snow Region, and after asking for one hour, he had obtained much information. However, there were plenty of things that he couldn’t get a clearer explanation as this person had died due to blood loss and didn’t say a word about the Heaven Devil Sect.
“The Savage Snow Region actually has the top ten sects? Every sect has Demigods? They even have horrific ice beasts? Ice imps?”
Jiang Yi stood up and immediately released a bundle of Nine Heavens Dragon Flames to incinerate the corpse into ashes. He then looked into the vast snow region and stared blankly. This Savage Snow Region was much more dangerous than he imagined. If he was careless, he might never be able to see Su Ruoxue again and might be sealed in ice in this place for eternity.
“Go!”
His body gradually transformed into that Heaven Devil Sect’s disciple earlier before he sprinted ahead. It didn’t matter how dangerous it was, he still had to find Su Ruoxue as that woman had suffered too much. He had to rescue her.
