Fury Towards The Burning Heaven Chapter 1438 - Benefiting Immensely

Chapter 1438: Benefiting Immensely

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The clean-up operation indeed went very smoothly. Within less than one Lower-Domain day, almost all the Chaos Beasts had been killed. Only a small minority had managed to flee back to the Black Snow Sea.

The Black Snow Sea was extremely vast, and there were strong and dark undercurrents beneath the surface. Furthermore, the temperature in the sea was very low and grew even lower as one traveled. This was a huge impediment to martial artists’ speed and made killing Chaos Beasts even more difficult.

Xiao Shan, Qiu Yi, and company decided to withdraw their forces and leave the remnant Chaos Beasts for others to kill via missions. The three pavilions’ martial artists could slowly take their time to come here and wipe the Chaos Beasts out. The army started to pack up and collect all the Chaos Beasts’ corpses to be handed to the higher-ups. Although some people—including Heaven Emanations—had died this time, the rewards were substantial.

Three G.o.d bandit militia groups that had been operating in the Black Snow Mountainous Region for years had been exterminated. Every G.o.d bandit also had some items in their interspatial rings. How much treasures and divine roots were in the interspatial rings was unimaginable. Furthermore, the entire area was littered with Chaos Beasts’ corpses; there were even at least a thousand Ancient-Grade Chaos Beast corpses. All these could be used to exchange for divine roots and battle merits.

However, this time, all the great family clan heads and the Demon-Killing Pavilion Branch Lords had strict orders to hand over the spoils to Xiao Hong and Jiang Yi to give them out. Since they had come out to fight this time mainly to show face to Jiang Yi and it had been because of him that so many had gathered, the spoils were naturally his to divide.

Swis.h.!.+

After the battlefield had been cleaned up, Xiao Shan and Qiu Yi flew over and entered the Divine Boat as Qiu Yi reported. “Great Minister of Public Works, all the battle spoils have been gathered. Do you want them sent here now or back to your city? The Prefecture Lord had instructed us to send all the battle spoils for you to divide.”

“For me to divide and distribute?”

Jiang Yi did not understand. Mo Shangxing, however, understood immediately. He sent a voice transmission: “Jiang Yi, these people are giving you face by wanting to send all the spoils to you. Jiang Yi, since some men had died this time, you shouldn’t take all the spoils; you should give some to the deceased.”

“Oh!”

Jiang Yi finally understood. He hurriedly said, “I do not want a single thing. All are to be divided among everyone. The families of the deceased are to get a ten-fold portion!”

“This…”

Qiu Yi and Xiao Shan exchanged a glance as they hesitated, then cupped their hands, and said, “Great Minister of Public Works is benevolent and righteous. On behalf of the deceased, we thank you, Great Minister of Public Works.”

Jiang Yi perspired a little. From his perspective, these men had died because of him. Although if it wasn’t for his help towards the end, most of those present would have been demonized; he still felt a little guilty. He naturally did not covet any battle spoils and even wanted to give that Primordial-Grade Chaos Beast corpse to everyone to share.

However, thinking that this Primordial-Grade Chaos Beast had been killed by the Earth Emanations Sovereign and the latter was giving him a special favor—if Jiang Yi used it to curry favor with others, that would not be appropriate. Jiang Yi shelved that thought.

“Jiang Yi, you do not have to feel guilty!”

Mo Shangxing’s impression of Jiang Yi suddenly became a lot better. His blurred face suddenly became much clearer as a refined and learned middle-aged man’s face appeared. Mo Shangxing smiled slightly and said, “All martial artists are destined to perish. Any one battle is a trial and a time to gain experience. If one’s strength and luck are insufficient—even if he doesn’t die this time, he will die the next time! One who can crawl out from a pile of corpses will then be more likely to head towards the peak stage of excellence!”

Although Jiang Yi understood this logic, he still felt a little uncomfortable. He made a mental note that if he made it big one day, he would definitely take care of all the clans in the Blue Eagle Prefecture.

…

The army started to make its way back. As Jiang Yi had rejected a single spoil of war, the Xiao Clan, Qiu Yi, and the great family clans of the Blue Eagle Prefecture also did not claim any; they were not lacking in these items. Since the great family clans did not want the spoils, the Heaven Emanations also did not step forward to ask for any.

As such—as the battle spoils slowly made their way down the chain of command, every G.o.d King received a handsome amount of battle spoils. Qiu Yi and Xiao Shan also awarded some battle merits to everyone. After all, this extermination mission had been against the Netherworld Realm; it was well within their right to give some battle merits for this mission.

All the G.o.d Kings that partic.i.p.ated in this battle were elated. Not only did they get a small fortune each, but they had also managed to witness a formidable battle. Most importantly, they had seen the Earth Emanations Sovereign in action with their own eyes. Everyone was extremely excited, all hoping that Jiang Yi would organize yet another huge battle.

Jiang Yi once again became famous within the Blue Eagle Prefecture. This time was different from the last, however. The previous time, many people held Jiang Yi in contempt. However, Jiang Yi’s mystical ability had saved everyone’s lives this time; they were now wholeheartedly full of respect for him.

Jiang Yi hung around in the Blue Eagle Mountain for a few days before returning home. Xiao Hong had long woken up and had recovered significantly. Jiang Yi did not say much but made a mental note of Xiao Hong’s contributions this time. He brought Xiao Leng, the Poison Spirit, and Mo Shangxing back to the Divine Eagle City. Since Mo Shangxing had already revealed himself, there was no need to lurk in the shadows anymore.

Upon returning to the Divine Eagle City, Jiang Yi made Xiao Leng in charge of the Divine Eagle City while Commander Liu took over the Demon-Killing Pavilion. Jiang Yi then gave Mo Shangxing a good place to stay before he went into seclusion once again.

Young Mistress He had already sent the golden hearthstones and black rainstones over long ago. It was a pity that the little beast had not woken up yet. Jiang Yi did not disturb it but immediately went into seclusion to cultivate. He was so impatient to start cultivating because he had had a realization on Heaven Camel Mountain but had been disrupted by the Xiao Clan members midway.

Jiang Yi had heard the Primordial-Grade Chaos Beast’s ghost-like call and suddenly had a deeper realization of the Divine Sound Heaven Skill.

The sound emitted from the Primordial-Grade Chaos Beast could paralyze G.o.d Kings; it was imaginable how overbearing and terrifying this sound was. If Jiang Yi could realize this in its entirety, he could probably upgrade his Divine Sound Heaven Skill once again to a newer level.

Now that the Poison Spirit was back, Commander Liu had reported that the array around the Stellarsky Domain had been successfully created, and Mo Shangxing had informed that the Stellarsky Domain was definitely safe; Jiang Yi could finally relax and wholeheartedly cultivate. He wanted to increase his strength first before anything else.

He was in seclusion for two Higher-Domain days!

Jiang Yi then came out of seclusion; while it was a pity that the Divine Sound Heaven Skill had not been leveled up, the fire-elemental law he had been deducing had reached the Phenomenal Stage. Both the Pandan and the Heavenly Heart Herb had been completely refined, and his soul spirit was now that of a peak-stage G.o.d General. Now, he would be able to teleport a few hundred times without feeling dizzy.

Jiang Yi was prepared to enter the Dao Heaven Mystic Realm.

He had been in the Higher Domain for around fifteen days. Although this seemed like a short time, time moved differently in the Higher Domain and the Lower Domain. Fifteen days in the Higher Domain was a thousand and five hundred Lower-Domain days. Four years had pa.s.sed in the Lower Domain.

Jiang Yi really missed Yi Chan, Su Ruoxue, Yin Ruobing, and the rest. He wanted to increase his strength quickly to go and find Yi Piaopiao and Jiang Xiaonu and then return to the Stellarsky Domain. Hence, although the opportunity to enter the Dao Heaven Mystic Realm was very precious, he was going to go for it nevertheless.

Jiang Yi gathered Commander Liu and Xiao Leng to inquire about matters in the city and the Earth Emanations Domain. After making sure that there weren’t any major problems, he told them he wanted to go to the Demon-Killing Pavilion to be teleported to the Dao Heaven Mystic Realm.

“You want to go to the Dao Heaven Mystic Realm?”

Mo Shangxing floated into being as he frowned and said, “If it isn’t absolutely necessary, I feel that you should enter after cultivating for half a year first!”

“Half a year?”

Half a year in the Higher Domain was fifty Lower-Domain years. Jiang Yi did not have the luxury of time. He shook his head and said, “I have my reasons. I have to enter now!”

“Since you have decided, I will not try to persuade you anymore.”

Mo Shangxing thought for a moment and said, “After you enter, do not bother with realizing the Heaven and Earth Quintessence inside. Based on your current level, it is impossible to realize them. I propose that you be fully relaxed. The more you dispel any desires and ambitions and the more you empty your mind and soul, the easier it will be to have a sliver of realization. In the Dao Heaven Mystic Realm, as long as you can have even a sliver of realization, it will benefit you immensely.”
