Chapter 1412: Heavenly Yang Fury Flames
The black rainstone was a very special type of stone. This stone had different applications. It could be used to refine one's body and also for forging strong divine artifacts. It could also be used as a material to build arrays.
However, as there were many other substitutes for these black rainstones—although they were rare, they were not considered that expensive. Quite often, they could be bought at auctions for a few million divine roots. For great family clans, a few million divine roots was not considered a big amount. To Jiang Yi, however, it was an exorbitant price.
Jiang Yi took out all the interspatial rings that he possessed as he started to organize the treasures within them. The Poison Spirit made a rough estimate that excluding the Pandan and the tea leaves that Jiutian Ze had given Jiang Yi, all his possessions were only worth more than a million divine roots; that was a huge gap from the required five million divine roots.
"Poison Spirit, do you have divine roots on you? If you have, could you lend them to me first? I will return them to you in the future!"
Jiang Yi looked towards Poison Spirit, wanting to enlist his assistance. The latter's expression became bitter as he said, 'Young Lord, it isn't that I am stingy; I only have five to six hundred thousand divine roots on me. Unless I sell my pair of Spatial-Splitting Divine Gloves.
"That year, I used all my wealth to make this pair of gloves. After that—when I followed Xuanyuan Lingyan, she never reported any missions I completed for her to the Xuanyuan Clan. I had never gotten any rewards ever since..."
"Then, what should I do? Should I sell the Pandan?"
Jiang Yi scratched his nose, embarrassed. He had refined the Heavenly Heart Herb, and his body was still absorbing it. It would take a few Lower-Domain months before he would deplete the Heavenly Heart Herb. Furthermore, he did not have such a pressing need to strengthen his soul spirit at the moment.
The problem was... the Pandan had been conned from the Crazed God Castle. With Jiutian Ze still in Blue Eagle City, Jiang Yi could only turn to a Crazed God Castle to sell the Pandan for a high price. Regardless of whether any Crazed God Castles would help him to sell it or not, Jiang Yi did not have the face to go to one of these establishments to sell the Pandan.
"Young Lord, the black rainstones are actually not that useful!" The Poison Spirit paused for a moment and asked. "There are many things that can replace it; do you want to look for something else instead?"
"That can't work."
Jiang Yi shook his head. The Heaven-Swallowing Beast had specifically asked for this; it would definitely be very useful to its growth. Whether the Heaven-Swallowing Beast could grow stronger or not depended on its combined combat ability. Hence, Jiang Yi had to think of all possible ways to help the Heaven-Swallowing Beast find the three treasures it had requested as well as many powerful burning flames.
Jiang Yi did not have any ideas; he couldn't possibly go and look for Zhang Hai to get back the treasures of the Xuanyuan Clan's Third Grandfather and others, right?
The Poison Spirit also grew troubled as his eyes glistened, trying to help Jiang Yi think of a way. A moment later, the Poison Spirit suddenly thought of something as he asked curiously, "Young Lord, why are you looking for heaven-and-earth special flames? Could it be you have the ability to collect them? Is your cultivation of the fire-elemental laws?"
The heaven-and-earth special flames were extremely powerful; if one did not cultivate fire-elemental laws, he would not be able to get close at all. Even if Jiang Yi was cultivating fire-elemental laws, he was a mere God General at present; he couldn't possibly handle them, right?
"Why are you asking about this?" Jiang Yi casually explained, "I naturally have my ways!"
"Young Lord, you really can collect heaven-and-earth special flames?" The Poison Spirit's eyes lit up. "As long as you can, then it would be too easy to get your hands on divine roots. Let's go and collect the burning flames in that treacherous land first. If you bring the flames to the Crazed God Castle to be auctioned, you could easily get five to six million divine roots."
"Uh?"
Jiang Yi blinked, confused, as he asked, "The flames can be sold?"
"Of course!"
The Poison Spirit explained. "Normal burning flames might not be useful. However, the heaven-and-earth special flames are different. These flames are extremely powerful; they are also the most-needed material for refining divine artifacts. You should know that every superior-grade divine artifact or supreme-grade divine artifact requires quenching these items into the heaven-and-earth special flames. The more powerful these flames are, the better the quality of the divine artifact produced."
"There is actually such a thing?"
Jiang Yi grew excited. He thought about it for a while and asked, "What should I use to contain the burning flames? If it really is a powerful type of burning flames, any interspatial ring would probably melt, right?"
Jiang Yi had been depending on the Fire Spirit Pearl to absorb the flames. Since he was going to sell the flames, he couldn't possibly sell the Fire Spirit Pearl along with them, right? That was the reason behind his question.
The Poison Spirit waved his hand and answered, "This is easy. There is a special type of interspatial ring that can easily lower high temperatures. However, this type of interspatial ring costs a few hundred thousand divine roots. Young Lord, you are certain you can get close to these heaven-and-earth special flames? If so, I will go and purchase one such interspatial ring. The special flames in this treacherous place are the famous Heavenly Yang Fury Flames. These Heavenly Yang Fury Flames are ranked thirtieth among all the special flames. Young Lord, you..."
"Hurry up and buy one!"
Jiang Yi did not care anymore as he gestured. The Nine Nether Cold Flames had been ranked thirty-six; this Heavenly Yang Fury Flames was ranked thirtieth. They weren't that far apart and the flames would not harm him.
The Poison Spirit made a 'poof' sound as he disappeared. Jiang Yi also walked out briskly. He gathered everyone to inform them that he was going to make a trip to Blue Eagle City. As for matters within the city, Commander Liu was going to take charge as usual. If there were any problems, they were also to send a message to him.
Xiao Leng's injuries have gotten better. However, Jiang Yi did not bring him along this time. There shouldn't be any danger this time as he wasn't taking on a mission. Furthermore, with the Poison Spirit accompanying him, normal Demon-Killing Battle Gods would not be able to hurt him. He asked Xiao Leng to take his time to recuperate in peace.
An hour later, the Poison Spirit returned. Jiang Yi and the fully-clothed-in-black-Earth-Emanations-Army-battle-armor Poison Spirit once again made their way out of the city. Their target this time was the North River City to the north of the Blue Eagle Prefecture. The treacherous place there was not far to the south of the North River City. Recent reports had also indicated that the Heavenly Yang Fury Flames had appeared inside while these Heavenly Yang Fury Flames had—in turn—nurtured many fire-element Chaos Beasts; many martial artists had already perished there.
After refining the Heavenly Heart Herb, a huge source of energy within Jiang Yi's soul spirit was strengthening Jiang Yi's soul spirit continuously. At this moment, Jiang Yi's divine senses could already scan a hundred-foot radius; he should also be reaching the God General Realm. Hence, even teleporting was becoming faster for him. Every time, he could teleport forty to fifty times.
Resting once along the way, the second round of teleportations brought the duo to the North River City. The Poison Spirit checked the surroundings and said very certainly, "Young Lord, no one is following us. It is safe."
"Go!"
With the Poison Spirit along, things were going to be much easier. This was a member of the Phantom Race; he was one of the most powerful assassins in the Earth Domain while he was also a tier-one scout. Jiang Yi walked out of the city very relaxed. He took out a Divine Boat as they started to fly south.
The Poison Spirit was not on the Divine Boat, however. He was moving furtively on the road below the Divine Boat. His speed was much faster than the Divine Boat's as he circled the Divine Boat and moved along with it. Anyone who wanted to get near the Divine Boat would be discovered by him for sure.
The Divine Boat cruised peacefully for five Lower-Domain days when Jiang Yi reached a place filled with rolling hills. Even before he entered the place, Jiang Yi had already known that there were definitely strong burning flames inside. The mountains around the area were all bald; they were blackish-red, and it was obvious they had been burned at high temperature for a long time. Jiang Yi did not take out his Fire Spirit Pearl at this moment and could feel the wave after wave of heat rising up from the depths of the mountain range.
"Young Lord, we have reached this treacherous place. You can come down now. If you continue with the Divine Boat, you would easily become a target for the Chaos Beasts!"
A voice transmission rang out in Jiang Yi's mind. He flew out of the Divine Boat and kept it as he scanned the surroundings. Not one person was around him; where was the Poison Spirit hiding?
Jiang Yi looked a couple of times as he flew into one mountain. The Poison Spirit appeared like an apparition near him as he said, "Young Lord, there should be at least two Ancient-Grade Chaos Beasts inside. You must be careful. If I ask you to retreat, you should do nothing else but run."
"Alright!"
Jiang Yi nodded very obediently. He was just prepared to enter the treacherous place when five hundred kilometers to the east, an air-splitting sound rang out. The Poison Spirit's divine senses went forth as a murdering aura surged instantly in his body. He exclaimed, "How is it that we have encountered that clan? Is this a coincidence? Or is someone plotting against us again?"
"Who goes there?"
Jiang Yi asked anxiously. By right, there shouldn't be many people coming to this treacherous place. They had just arrived and others had soon followed suit? Could it be members of the Xuanyuan Clan?
The Poison Spirit's eyes flashed with resolute hatred as he gritted his teeth and said, "It's a Divine Boat from the Qin Clan; it is a Divine Boat of the highest class at that. I wonder if it is Qin Rong or the Qin Clan first young mistress Qin Yuewen. Should we go back first? If we encounter people from the Qin Clan, I am afraid I would not be able to resist and attack them..."
