“Take you as my spirit beast?”
Jiang Yi was stumped; he did not know what the Black Deity was trying to do. The Black Deity was one of the Titled Demon Sovereign of the Endless Deep Sea; he was also extremely proud. He actually wanted to become a spirit beast of a human? Although Jiang Yi’s current strength did make him qualified to become the Black Deity’s master, Jiang Yi was still astonished that such a request had been made.
His eyes shifted as he asked, “Ascend? Once you become a spirit beast, you can ascend with me?”
“Yes!”
Qianqian answered, “Our Forebear had said once that the Mystic Thearch had asked him back then if he was willing to be the Mystic Thearch’s spirit beast; the Mystic Thearch could then bring him along. Uncle Black is not joking. Qianqian has never begged you before; I hope that you can help the Black Deity this time.”
Jiang Yi glanced at Qianqian and then turned towards the Black Deity and asked, “Black Deity, why do you want to go to the Higher Domain?”
“Revenge!”
The Black Deity’s eyes revealed his utmost hatred as he gritted his teeth and said, “This time, the demons of the Endless Deep Sea were nearly completely annihilated. My clan had all perished as well while Ao Lu had died, too. Although Xing Mo, the North Thearch, and others have been killed; the true enemies are actually from the Netherworld Realm. I wish to go with the Jiang Thearch to traverse the Higher Domain and kill the creatures from the Netherworld Realm to avenge the demon race.”
“I see…”
Jiang Yi and Qian Wanguan exchanged a glance. They both felt that there was more to this than what the Black Deity had said. However, since Qianqian had asked for his help, Jiang Yi had to show her some face. He nodded and said, “Alright, I promise you. However, if during the ascension, you are banished by the heaven-and-earth laws; you might be killed by the astral winds. You have to be mentally prepared.”
“En, many thanks, Jiang Thearch!” The Black Deity bowed deeply, his face full of gratitude.
Jiang Yi finally looked at Qianqian and said, “Qianqian, where have you two been hiding all this while? I had thought that… also, my apologies, Qianqian. I came out too late. I did not manage to protect Lord Ao Lu.”
“You do not need to apologize.”
Qianqian’s eyes were filled with tears as she shook her head and said, “That was the fate of the demon race. Avenging them and even engraving the Forebear Ao Lu’s name on the Heroes’ Plaque helped us clear our name. Qianqian cannot thank you enough. On behalf of the demon race, I express my thanks to you, Jiang Thearch.”
As she spoke, Qianqian was intending to kowtow. Jiang Yi hurriedly stopped her and said, “Qianqian, what are you saying? Lord Ao Lu had helped me so much; these are all things I should do. Also… we were previously friends; we still are and will continue to be! Call me Jiang Yi instead.”
“En!”
Qianqian nodded her head vigorously as she forced a smile and said, “Before that battle that day, I had wanted to fight to the death with everyone else. However, I was knocked unconscious by the Black Deity and brought to a mystic realm. It was the Forebear’s orders.”
“Sigh… the dead cannot be revived; my condolences to you, Qianqian.” Jiang Yi looked at Qianqian seriously and continued, “Lord Ao Lu painstakingly tried to keep you alive; you have to live your life to the fullest in return. Why don’t you stay in Jiang Thearch City from now on? Wanguan will help me take care of you.”
“It’s okay.”
Qianqian said resolutely, “My home is the Endless Deep Sea. I am the new Supreme Thearch of the demon race; I have to protect it. Jiang Yi, it is time for me to return. You must take care in the Higher Domain.”
Qianqian looked at Jiang Yi deeply as she started to walk out. Jiang Yi brought the Black Deity and Qian Wanguan and sent her along her way. He then ordered, “Wanguan, order some men to take my command token and escort Qianqian on the way back. Black Deity, go and send Qianqian back to the Endless Deep Sea first. I have to go to the Black Sea to continue my seclusion; come back to the Jiang Thearch City in half a year to look for me.”
“Yes!”
The Black Deity received his order while Qian Wanguan also made arrangements. Qianqian and the Black Deity entered the Teleportation Formation as they were teleported away.
“Wanguan, why does the Black Deity insist on coming along with me to the Higher Domain, you think?”
After the duo had teleported, Jiang Yi turned and asked Qian Wanguan this question. Although there was definitely a higher chance of breaking through in the Higher Domain, it was also easier to get killed there. The Black Deity was intending to leave Qianqian and not protect her, and he would follow Jiang Yi instead? Something was not right.
Qian Wanguan looked at the Teleportation Formation meaningfully, smiled, and said, “Boss, there’s a possibility that Qianqian had grown fond of you. She asked the Black Deity to follow you so that she can find you easily in the future. Furthermore, with the Black Deity accompanying you, the demons in the Endless Deep Sea would be as safe as it could be.”
Smash!
Jiang Yi’s slap landed on the back of Qian Wanguan’s head, and he didn’t bother with Qian Wanguan anymore. Jiang Yi turned and went to make preparations, and he then teleported to the Night Thearch City and used Heaven Evasion to enter the Black Sea.
From the Black Sea to the Death God Continent and then back to the Undying Tribe, it took Jiang Yi a full day. The Mystic Divine Palace was still on the grounds outside the Undying Tribe. Jiang Xiaonu was still in seclusion; she did not even know he had made a trip out.
The new Saint Emperor of the Death God Continent was waiting in the Undying Tribe for Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi inquired for a while and found that everything was well on the continent. Long Yang had also refined some spirit herbs and saint beast bones; his strength could definitely rival many of the Chieftains. With time, there should not be a problem for him to rule over the entire Death God Continent. Long Yang had also started to cultivate. Once he had essence energy and could refine the ancient artifact that Jiang Yi had bestowed him, his battle strength would be amplified further.
Jiang Yi returned to the Mystic Divine Palace and sat cross-legged next to Jiang Xiaonu. He looked at her pure and beautiful face, feeling a sense of gentleness inside. Jiang Yi looked at her for a while and then closed his eyes to start cultivating. After Jiang Yi entered his state of seclusion, Jiang Xiaonu suddenly opened her eyes, watched Jiang Yi with a sweet smile, and then continued with her cultivation as well.
Having realized an ultimate dao pattern, Jiang Yi was very relaxed as he cultivated. Of course, he did not waste any time; he still used a little of his mental strength to try and realize the Mystic Thearch’s Heaven Painting. Even realizing one more powerful dao pattern would go a long way up in the Higher Domain.
Cultivating at a hundred-thousand-fold accelerated speed, essence force surged forward like a water fountain. Unlimited numbers of soul spirit nourishment spirit herbs were also being refined by Jiang Yi; his soul spirit continued to grow stronger.
Jiang Yi’s mind and heart were empty; there was no sliver of pressure. This state of mind helped him in realizing the Mystic Thearch’s Heaven Painting. Within a month, he had actually realized the meaning behind that Heaven Painting and had grasped the dao pattern presence in it.
“This is indeed a supreme dao pattern. Unfortunately, it is a supporting-type dao pattern, Void Disturbance? It doesn’t seem to be of value; it seems quite useless!”
Jiang Yi murmured, slightly disappointed. At his current level, he could casually strike with his palm and cause turbulence in the spatial zone. He had now again realized another dao pattern similar to that; it was indeed of little value.
Better than nothing!
Since he had already made some progress realizing this dao pattern, Jiang Yi was not going to give up now. He concentrated with all his heart, aiming to completely realize this dao pattern in the next few months.
Three months later, Jiang Yi’s eighth star sphere shone with streaks of white light as it started to expand and shrink repeatedly. At the same time, three streaks of the power of the stars pierced down from the Nine Heavens and cut through the void above the Death God Continent. These streaks entered into the Mystic Divine Palace as Jiang Yi’s eighth star sphere was finally transformed.
“The ninth star sphere is still not yet full; there is only some astral winds energy inside. Furthermore, my dantian is completely different from others’; how am I supposed to form my divine core?”
Although the mysterious elder had said that once Jiang Yi’s eighth star sphere was transformed, his essence force would be equivalent to that of a True God’s, Jiang Yi was at a loss now. If he could not congeal his divine core, he would not be able to ascend.
However, after the eighth star sphere completely transformed, Jiang Yi quickly relaxed. All eight star spheres had swiftly gathered together and actually fused together. If nothing went wrong—once the fusion was complete, Jiang Yi would possess a True God’s divine core.
