Chapter 1166: Collecting Yi Chan’s Corpse
No matter whether it was a calamity or not—whether the Buddha Thearch and the rest had really died or not, Jiang Yi had no choice; he could only try and save the Yi Clan first before considering all else!
His eyes became very resolute as he roared, “I’m sorry, I have to protect the Yi Clan. I will ask you once. Will you retreat? If you do not, I can only apologize to you for what’s going to happen.”
“Kill!”
The Demigod facing him did not hesitate. His hand gestured as a three-million-strong army simultaneously shot out their essence force dao patterns. That Demigod also yelled and said, “Jiang Yi, if you dare to kill one soldier, you will be all our enemy; you can only die.”
Tsk-tsk! Boom-boom! Buzz-buzz—”
How strong was a simultaneous attack by three million soldiers? That was something that ordinary people could not fathom. That pulverizing attack was like that of the sky crashing down; the horrifying pressure made all the remaining two hundred thousand Yi Clan soldiers suffocate; they had all turned silly as they watched as the attack came rushing towards them. They did not seem to think of evading it.
“All to retreat!”
Jiang Yi’s roaring voice rang out. His phantom image had also disappeared in mid-air. The Mystic Divine Palace became like a sharp sword and dashed to the front. Facing a few million people’s attacks, the Mystic Divine Palace was like a small boat being rocked by menacing waves. The two-hundred-thousand-strong army of the Yi Clan had also finally come to their senses. Those peak-stage Heaven Monarchs hurriedly shot to the front to block the incoming attack, yelling at the same time, “Retreat, retreat.”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Many people were too slow. There were too many peak-stage Heaven Monarchs in the alliance army. Although the two Demigods had not attacked this time, it was already very hard as it was to block the attacks of a peak-stage Heaven Monarch. After this wave of attack, everyone left in the Yi Clan army who was not a Heaven Monarch had all perished.
“Goddammit!”
Jiang Yi saw that yet another hundred thousand people had turned into a blood mist, and he suddenly became very angry. If he wasn’t around, he would not feel guilty; however, the enemy had killed a hundred thousand soldiers from the Yi Clan in his face; how could he go and face Yi Chan?
The Mystic Divine Palace then transformed into a black lightning bolt and flew into the alliance army. The Mystic Divine Palace pierced through the hordes of soldiers, and in an instant, a thousand-feet-long pathway had been created. All those Heaven Monarch and Vajra Realm martial artists who had been knocked by the Mystic Divine Palace had all turned into a fine powder. As the alliance army had so many troops, at least one to two thousand men had been killed by this one attack.
“Go!”
The Mystic Divine Palace dashed out from the alliance army’s formation and immediately started to slice its way through the army again. The Mystic Divine Palace was just like an elephant rushing through a gathered group of sheep; the latter could not even try to resist and were easily pressed, slammed, and stepped to death.
“Spread out and retreat!”
The two Demigods saw that the Mystic Divine Palace had disrupted their army, exchanged glances, and gave the order. It was impossible to continue fighting like this. If Jiang Yi continued to kill as he wished, he could easily wipe out a few-million-strong army. The more compact everyone stood in formation, the faster his killing was. Within less than a minute, Jiang Yi had already killed almost ten thousand people.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The alliance army received their orders and immediately retreated in all directions. They fled everywhere, and they were as many as locusts. Jiang Yi had locked onto the two Demigods, and the Mystic Divine Palace transformed into a black lightning bolt and surged forth.
However, the two Demigods were very smart. They had immediately dived underground and had escaped separately. Furthermore, they did not escape in a straight direction; they were turning and making a bent like a snake. Jiang Yi decided on pursuing one person and locked on to him and flew towards that Demigod. After Jiang Yi was only ten thousand feet away from him, that person decided that he could not escape anymore. He was just a six-star formidable martial artist; his speed was much slower than that of the Mystic Divine Palace.
“Jiang Yi, if you dare to kill me, you will definitely perish!”
That Demigod’s divine senses had detected the Mystic Divine Palace heading right for him and about to smash him into pieces as he yelled out with rage. Jiang Yi’s expression did not change the slightest; he had heard such threats too many times. Once his killing instinct had been activated, he would not care about anything else. Even if it was God, Jiang Yi would do the same.
Bang!
The Demigod was struck by the Mystic Divine Palace, and his divine shield cracked in an instance. Following that, his body also exploded into pieces. He did not even have time to cry out before he was killed.
Bang!
The Mystic Divine Palace came blasting from beneath the earth as Jiang Yi used his divine senses to scan the surroundings. He saw soldiers were fleeing in every direction; he did not know which direction to pursue them.
“Young Master Jiang!”
A Yi Clan general roared towards Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi stopped the Mystic Divine Palace as the general flew forth and genuflected on the ground, growling, “Young Master, please do not chase them anymore. You should go and rescue other places. The fighting in the Buddha Region is exceptionally bad; Lady Chan and the rest might not be able to hold out for long. The alliance army had split into ten armies and are attacking at the same time. Now that the army here had been beaten into a retreat by you, it would be hard to gather them again in a short time.”
“Alright!”
Jiang Yi replied as he then sat cross-legged and released his Divine Perception to scan a two-thousand-five-hundred-kilometer radius to ascertain the movements of the alliance army.
Before long, he had found yet another alliance army five hundred thousand kilometers away. That alliance army had just broken through a city. The city was littered with bones and ashes as blood flowed and formed a river. It was obvious that city had just been massacred. That alliance army was boldly flying towards the next big city.
Tsk! Tsk!
Jiang Yi immediately used his Mystic Divine Palace’s Heaven Evasion, silently calculating the time and distance to use Heaven Evasion. A few minutes later, the Mystic Divine Palace appeared through a crevice in the spatial zone. Jiang Yi used his Divine Perception and found out that that alliance army was only tens of thousands of kilometers away and decided not to use Heaven Evasion but to just fly the Mystic Divine Palace towards it.
“The Mystic Divine Palace? That’s Jiang Yi!”
Similarly, two Demigods were leading this three-million-strong army. When they saw the Mystic Divine Palace flying towards them, everyone stopped momentarily and locked onto the Mystic Divine Palace. This time, Jiang Yi did not even bother to form his phantom image; he directly sent a message out, saying, “I am here to protect the Yi Clan. You guys can either retreat, or I will have no choice but to attack.”
“Bah!”
One of the Demigods in the alliance army sneered and said, “Jiang Yi, what are you? You think you can protect the Yi Clan…”
Swish!
Before that Demigod had finished speaking, the Mystic Divine Palace had already sped forward. Jiang Yi did not even bother to hear what else the Demigod had to say. Since the Demigod was so stubborn, Jiang Yi was going to kill him first before considering anything else. This time, Jiang Yi locked on to the two Demigods in the distance. Jiang Yi wanted to kill the Demigods first before slaughtering the army.
However, these two Demigods were not idiots either. One immediately flew up while the other flew down. One of them even yelled, “All are to attack and destroy the Mystic Divine Palace! Kill Jiang Yi!”
A few million people released their attacks in their panicked and confused state. However, the Mystic Divine Palace swept by in an arc and flew towards the sky and avoided most attacks; the Mystic Divine Palace was heading straight for the Demigod that had flown upwards.
Bang!
The Mystic Divine Palace easily caught up and struck that Demigod into a pile of minced meat. The Mystic Divine Palace then continued and flew downwards towards the alliance army. This time—without the commander-in-chief needing to order anything, the three million soldiers scattered and fled. The Mystic Divine Palace was too frightening; it could kill Demigods easily just by slamming into them. Jiang Yi was also infamous for being deadly; no one wanted to die.
Jiang Yi did not stop this time; he pursued the enemy for five full minutes, killing tens of thousands of soldiers. He only stopped after utterly destroying the alliance army’s formation and morale. Jiang Yi then continued using his Divine Perception to scan the vicinity. This time, he detected two alliance armies. One of them was particularly huge; it had six million soldiers and at least fifty Demigods.
At this moment, that army had encircled a major city. Many soldiers were defending the city as well. Jiang Yi detected a figure on the city wall; that purple hair was extremely eye-catching.
“It’s Yi Chan!”
Though there was an alliance army five hundred thousand kilometers away, Jiang Yi immediately chose to use Heaven Evasion and head to that major city that was one million and five hundred thousand kilometers away. There were so many Demigods there; it was definitely the main alliance army. If Jiang Yi got there late, he might only be able to help collect Yi Chan and the others’ corpses.
