Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

The strongest thing about the Divinity Slayer was not its attack power. Instead, it was the fact that this dao pattern harnessed the heaven and earth powers within a hundred-kilometer radius. In other words, Jiang Yi was able to use even his enemy’s powers. When he was in the thunder formation—for example, he made use of the thunder and lightning forces within the array formation to become stronger. This made it easier for him to break the array as well.

Similarly, at that moment, he made use of the typhoon’s powers. When the Divinity Slayer was activated, the typhoon slowed down. Three Fire Dragons formed from the heaven and earth powers carried with them a frightening aura as they charged toward the typhoon, breaking it completely.

Yet!

Just as the typhoon was destroyed, a smaller one formed again. The black fog that had just been dissipated was once again attracted by that smaller typhoon, causing it to grow. The whirlpool below continued on unhindered. There was no way Jiang Yi could completely get rid of the typhoon after all.

“Mei Ru, have you studied the whirlpool in the sea? Can it be destroyed?”

The winds got stronger, causing Jiang Yi’s hair to whip all around his face. Mei Ru’s dress was dancing in the wind as well, exposing her two fair legs from time to time. Occasionally, Jiang Yi even caught sight of her ample chest and her black undergarment.

Yet, she did not notice his gaze. Instead, she frowned and shook her head. “We can’t enter from under the sea. Even demon sovereigns cannot escape from the force of the whirlpool from a thousand meters away. They would be sucked inside the mystic realm for sure.”

As if recalling something, Jiang Yi asked curiously, “Since humans and demons that got sucked into the mystic realm cannot come out, how do you know that a mystic realm exists?”

Mei Ru’s eyes twinkled. In a low voice, she responded, “A holy demon once appeared in the Black Sea hundreds of thousands of years ago. It could see through illusions and predict the future. Its abilities was slightly stronger than Ao Lu’s. It really had one leg in the Demon God realm. It was a pity, though, that it was seriously injured. That resulted in it not being able to break through and become a true demon god.

“Before it died, it looked around for a place to be buried. At that time, it left behind a few messages for its descendants. Among these messages was one that said the demons of the Black Sea should never go close to the Death God’s Dense Sea because it contained a mystic realm in which we would die for sure.”

“A holy demon?”

Jiang Yi’s nose scrunched up, not knowing whether he should believe her or not. Still, all of these things did not quite matter anymore. What was most important was that the Buddha Thearch and the others were truly missing inside. He needed to get inside the whirlpool in order to find them.

“Mei Ru, go into the whirlpool!”

Jiang Yi commanded. Mei Ru looked pained once again. Jiang Yi lifted one leg and kicked Mei Ru in her full bottom, causing her to fly toward the center of the whirlpool. He decided to follow her closely toward the center as well.

“Ah?”

Mei Ru cried out in shock, but the suction force was way too strong. Even as the Thearch of the Black Sea, she was unable to resist that force. Instead, she could only watch as her body got pulled into the center of the whirlpool.

“Chief is here; why are you panicking? Take note of everything around you and get ready for battle!”

Jiang Yi shouted out in a cool voice. This calmed Mei Ru down slightly. She had already been changed by the artifact spirit. She no longer commanded the same authority and respect that she did before. All that was left was discomfort and fear. This was understandable: anyone who had become a soul slave would react in much the same way. They would only know panic for the rest of their lives. This sprang from not knowing when they would ultimately be killed.

“Go!”

The waves seemed to reach the heavens, and the water kept spinning at crazy speeds. Jiang Yi spun around along with the whirlpool. They were about to reach the center. There was no hint of emotion on his face. Instead, he looked determined. Whether to return the grace others had shown him or for Yi Chan’s and Yin Ruobing’s sakes, he knew that he had to make this trip into the whirlpool.

Who knew if he would perish inside or if he would be stuck there forever? He could not be bothered about all of these questions for now. As a man, he had the responsibility of holding up the heavens and holding the earth still. There were some things that he just had to do. If he kept thinking about his own safety and shying away from danger, then he would never be able to accomplish anything. All he would be concerned with was keeping himself away from the world in a cave with his wives, making babies all day long.

The closer he got to the center of the whirlpool, the faster the waters seemed to spin. Mei Ru grabbed Jiang Yi’s arm in fear. The two of them spun rapidly around, finally disappearing when they arrived in the center of the whirlpool. There, the waters kept surging, and the wind kept howling. The typhoon continued to grow, and the lightning seemed to be getting more intense.

…

“Uh!”

Ever since Jiang Yi and Mei Ru got sucked into the whirlpool, they spun increasingly quickly. Both of them were incredibly dizzy now. What’s more, they could barely see anything in the pitch-black whirlpool. As they got shot into the deeper recesses of the sea, they both lost their bearings.

“Union of Heaven and Man!”

Jiang Yi focused only on holding onto Mei Ru and forced himself to enter the State of the Union of Heaven and Man. If he wanted to get out, he had to take note of how they were entering the mystic realm.

In that state, he could finally get a hold on everything happening around him. They were in the whirlpool and being dragged deeper into the sea. They were almost at the sea bed now. The end of the whirlpool was a black passage in the sea bed.

“Uh!”

After they entered the passage, Jiang Yi felt a mysterious force engulfing his soul. Both he and Mei Ru lost consciousness completely. At last, he had no idea where he was.

Swish!

After some time—maybe in a blink of an eye, or maybe after a few years—Jiang Yi finally regained consciousness.

He felt himself falling rapidly as strong energy surrounded him, pushing him down even faster. His essence force tried to take control of his body, but on realizing that he was falling, even his Demigod powers could not help him fly upwards. All he could do was watch himself going down into the white fog below him.

“Lord, the gravity here is terrifying!”

Mei Ru was still hanging onto him for her life. She tried to fly, but she could not either. Jiang Yi looked around and found that both of them were trapped in a strange space. There was seawater was all around them, and the white fog was directly below. Far away, they could see a black dot. That was probably the island.

“My divine senses are not working here. The space is so frighteningly solidified!”

Jiang Yi very quickly realized a problem: he could not use his divine senses to scan the surroundings where they were. He could only use his eyes to look around. He tried to use Heaven Evasion but found that the space here could not be torn open. It was indeed a frightening and strange mystic realm they were in.

He looked around with his eyes, trying to relax. At least there was no visible danger here. Perhaps the Buddha Thearch and the others were still alive. As long as they could find them, they could all think of a way to get out together.

Boom!

As the two of them crashed heavily into the sea, Jiang Yi and Mei Ru quickly discovered that there was another problem. The buoyancy of the water they were in was too great: half of their bodies were floating above the sea surface.

This was not the key point. The key point was that Jiang Yi’s divine shield was being corroded. Mei Ru cried out in shock. “This seawater is so strange! It’s absorbing my demonic strength!”

“What kind of freaking place is this?!”

Jiang Yi was shocked as well. His divine shield was broken in moments. The essence force in his nine star spheres was being absorbed into the sea rapidly as well. The gravity in this freaking place was absolutely terrifying. They had no way of leaving this sea region as well. They could only watch as the seawater absorbed their essence force and demonic strength.

“Xiaonu!”

Jiang Yi suddenly pulled himself together and retrieved the Mystic Divine Palace. It lit up, and Jiang Xiaonu appeared. He cried out in rage. “Xiaonu, transform yourself! Help me fly!”

Buzz!

Jiang Xiaonu immediately transformed. Her two wings tried hard to fly upward with Jiang Yi in tow. Jiang Yi teleported Mei Ru into the Mystic Divine Palace and allowed Jiang Xiaonu to fly them to the nearest black dot.

“Young Master, the gravity here is too strong. I think I can only carry us about fifty kilometers,” Jiang Xiaonu said as she flew. She looked astonished as well.

“Let’s find an island.”

Jiang Yi felt lingering fear in his chest as he sighed. He looked at the water as if it was a frightening demon. In those few seconds, so much of his essence force had been taken away from him. If he remained in the sea for a day, perhaps all of his essence force would be gone.
