Chapter 1587: Heavenly King You, Die!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Sixteen kilometers, eight kilometers... one and a half kilometers!

Heavenly King You had already killed more than half of the tens of thousands of Heaven Flame Beasts that Jiang Yi sent over. The flames on these beasts were terrifying, but their defense and speed were very weak compared to Heavenly King You's attacks. He could easily blast them into pieces.

Heavenly King You wandered around, using his divine senses to sweep the surroundings as if trying to locate Jiang Yi's body. His divine senses swept past Jiang Yi many times, but he pretended that he did not see him. He wanted to allow Jiang Yi to get closer.

Heavenly King You had no idea what Jiang Yi wanted to do.

He began to suspect if Jiang Yi was doing it on purpose, but he did not believe that Jiang Yi would be able to kill him. So what if he really did have these Heaven Flame Beasts? Without the Prairie Flames, the Heaven Flame Beasts would not be able to kill him. What's more, if he allowed the distance between them to close up, Jiang Yi would not have a way of escape. He would be killed with a single blow!

"Prairie Flames?"

Thinking about the Prairie Flames reminded Heavenly King You of something else. When they were attacking the Lava Wasteland earlier, the surrounding temperature seemed to get lower and lower. At last, even when the Lava Wasteland exploded, the Prairie Flames disappeared. At first, they thought that the Prairie Flames dissipated naturally without the Lava Wasteland to contain it. At that moment, however, Heavenly King You realized that something was amiss.

"Not good!"

His heart jumped as he became wary. Immediately, he perked up and pointed his black, headless spear at Jiang Yi who had already closed up half the distance. Heavenly King You started to deal an attack.

"Too late, fool!"

Jiang Yi grinned. His body appeared once again in midair, and the Fire Spirit Pearl in his Fire Dragon Sword lit up. One by one, balls of orange flames appeared. He caused the Fire Dragon Sword to dance around, releasing his wind-elemental dao pattern. Tens of wind dragons carried the balls of orange flames out towards Heavenly King You, causing the temperature of the surroundings to soar.

"Oh, no!"

Heavenly King Wu and the others started. They were five hundred kilometers from Jiang Yi, and yet they could still feel the terrifyingly high temperatures. Heavenly King You was only two hundred and fifty meters away from Jiang Yi; how high must the temperature be where he stood? It was unimaginable!

"Indeed..."

Qi Qingchen's face split into a full-on grin, making her look like a blossoming peony. She was beautiful beyond compare. The Wintry Sovereign was obviously astonished. The Phantom King and Earth Emanations Sovereign, who were both in hiding, celebrated inside. The Phantom King locked in on the Fire Dragon Sword in shock as the Earth Emanations Sovereign mumbled, "I knew his sword could not be so... weak?"

"Ah—"

The sound of a pig being slaughtered echoed throughout the void. Heavenly King You wanted to run immediately, but the temperature was too high, and his heavenly powers were taking a huge hit. In an instant, he got pulled back by the Prairie Flames.

Jiang Yi had to admit that King-Ranked martial artists' bodies were extremely strong. Of course, this was partly due to the fact that Heavenly King You had on a set of Primitive Spiritual Treasure battle armor and was the second most powerful man in the Earth Domain. Even as the tenth most powerful flames in the Earth Domain touched him, he did not immediately get reduced to ash. Instead, he continued to writhe in the void, refusing to die.

"Jiang Yi, stop!"

Heavenly King Wu and the others shouted. Jiang Yi's eyes glinted, but he did not stop. Instead, he charged towards Heavenly King You. Once he got close, he summoned a ball of six-colored flames and threw it at Heavenly King You.

It was obvious!

The six-colored flames were the Merged Flames in Jiang Yi's ninth star sphere. The Fire Spirit Pearl was too strong. When the Prairie Flames engulfed him earlier, he remained absolutely fine. The Fire Spirit Pearl even began to absorb the flames at top speed. That was why the seven formidable martial artists felt the surrounding temperature drop. At last, Jiang Yi had absorbed all the Prairie Flames. When the group discovered that the flames were gone, they thought that they had dissipated.

There was too little time. Jiang Yi only managed to send a little Prairie Flames into his ninth star sphere to merge with his five-colored flames. However, this one little bit was enough.

The six-colored Merged Flames were obviously more powerful than the Prairie Flames. The moment he sent it out, Heavenly King You's entire body combusted into flames. His flesh reduced to ash before their very eyes, causing Heavenly King Wu and the others to be scared stiff.

Buzz!

Heavenly King You was reduced to ash, and his interspatial ring was destroyed as well. However, his weapon and his battle armor were both Primitive Spiritual Treasures. Naturally, they did not get destroyed in the fire.

Jiang Yi flew over and grabbed the headless spear and the silver battle armor before turning to scan Heavenly King Wu and the others. Suddenly, he shouted, "Heheh, these are good things. Do you have similar treasures on you? Why not give me one or two pieces?"

"..."

The entire place was silent. Everybody watched as the flames beside Jiang Yi got absorbed into his Fire Spirit Pearl and immediately felt shocked. How many years had it been since they witnessed a King-Ranked martial artist be killed? This time, everybody was treated to a sight. Indeed, they had just witnessed the death of a King-Ranked martial artist; burned alive by a young man who had only ascended less than a year ago, no less.

More importantly, Jiang Yi's expression was nonchalant. He looked as relaxed as though he had just crushed an ant. Watching the remaining Heaven Flame Beasts fly towards him and dance around him, the crowd became horrified.

That's right, they were horrified!

If Jiang Yi were the Green Eagle King, perhaps they would not have felt so shocked. However, to them, he was a minor character who could be easily crushed. He was just a lowly ascendant.

Nobody dared to move!

The more formidable the martial artist, the more they feared death. They had huge family clans and careers; they could not afford to die. Heavenly King You was easily destroyed. That meant that apart from Heavenly King Wu, everybody else could be just as easily destroyed. If they charged forward, they would be giving Jiang Yi their treasures.

The Wintry Sovereign, Earth Emanations Sovereign, and Phantom King did not move either. They chose not to act earlier and were less likely to interfere now. They remained by the side, watching the drama unfold quietly. All of them focused on Heavenly King Wu, wanting to see how he would deal with the mess.

Heavenly King Wu's eyes glinted. He was torn inside!

Honestly, he appreciated Jiang Yi's talents. However, to a principled man like him who respected the rules, what Jiang Yi had done was unacceptable. Today, he even killed Heavenly King You in front of so many people. If he asked the group to back down, how would the Demon-Buster Army remain respected? How would he maintain order in the Earth Domain? If he did not kill Jiang Yi this time, the Earth Domain would descend into chaos. Jiang Yi had a killing machine in his hands; he was capable of killing anyone who did not do as he pleased.

His gaze hardened slowly, as his aura began to surge. Enraged, he roared, "Everyone, work together! Don't get close to Jiang Yi. Keep a distance as you try to kill him. His speed and defense are not great. If we don't kill Jiang Yi today, the Earth Domain would descend into chaos!"

"Kill—"

Heavenly King Wu's final sentence motivated the entire group to get moving. The remaining five people charged at Jiang Yi at the same time, their weapons glowing in their hands. A crazed killing intent locked in on Jiang Yi.

"Old Wu, have mercy!" The Earth Emanations King could not take it any longer. He shot out of his hiding place and shouted, "You cannot kill Jiang Yi!"

The Phantom King showed his face as well, shouting, "Old Wu, stop!"

At the same time, Qi Qingchen turned to shoot a look at the Wintry Sovereign who sighed helplessly and said, "Old Wu, don't do anything yet."

"Kill—"

The three elite martial artists had appeared, but Heavenly King Wu's killing intent was not to be stopped. His gaze was as hard as steel as he shouted, a huge metal rod appearing in his hands. It was growing by the second. The next moment, it was thirty kilometers long. It carried with it a destructive aura as Heavenly King Wu started to strike Jiang Yi with it.

"Kill!"

Everything was fine before the Phantom King and Earth Emanations Sovereign appeared, but once they did, the White River King and Heaven Desert King were completely angered. These two sovereigns were clearly out to protect Jiang Yi. If Jiang Yi did not die this time, would they have good days ahead?

Tsk! Tsk!

At that moment, the void suddenly lit up with a blinding white light. The beam of light shot towards Heavenly King Wu's metal rod, and an extremely overwhelming aura descended, suppressing them all. Even the White River King and the others slowed down as their bodies trembled uncontrollably.

"Uh?"

Jiang Yi used his divine senses to sweep the surroundings. Suddenly, he stiffened, his eyes widening in shock.

This white beam of light was a tree branch. It was the exact same tree branch as the one in Divine Yang Mystic Realm!
