“He Nongying, if I can go to the Heaven Domain in the future, I will make life difficult for you.”

Jiang Yi cursed under his breath. He had been plotted against by this woman. He hated being plotted against by women. That was what Ji Tingyu and Xing Mengwan both did. Now that He Nongying did the same, he was afraid that it would be difficult to get out.

He sat cross-legged on the ground and sensed around. Fifteen minutes later, he finally opened his eyes. After pondering for a moment, he said to the Poison Spirit, “Poison Spirit, let’s try our luck. We’ll take twenty hours at the most. Twenty hours later—no matter whether we can find an exit or not, we have to come back here. We will leave clues for each other along the way so that we will be able to find our way back here later.”

“Alright!”

The Poison Spirit was one of the best scouts. It was easy for him to leave clues behind and find his way back here. Both of them sprinted on their way, taking one path each and running around to look for another exit. Each time they reached an intersection, they would leave some things small behind. These things were tiny indeed. n.o.body would be able to spot them if they were not looking out for something.

There were intersections all around. Jiang Yi tried to a.n.a.lyze the various paths at first but later gave up doing so. Instead, he randomly chose paths to run down, leaving behind little clues for himself as he went.

Two hours later, Jiang Yi was running through any path he saw and towards any intersection he spotted. After all, he was just trying his luck. Whether he could find an exit or not was up to heaven.

Heaven was not on his side!

Eight hours later, he and the Poison Spirit met by chance. What’s more, Jiang Yi started to find himself pa.s.sing by the same intersections he already saw before.

“Let’s continue to search separately!”

Jiang Yi turned around and waved his hand, sending the Poison Spirit on his way once again. They ran around for six more hours before Jiang Yi found himself back at square one. What’s more—after running around a little more, he started to find clues that the Poison Spirit left behind. The Poison Spirit must have walked these paths before.

Two hours later, Jiang Yi and the Poison Spirit met again. Jiang Yi waved his hand and said, “Alright, forget it. It’s no use. We’re destined to be trapped here. I don’t think we’ll be able to find an exit.”

“Understood…”

The Poison Spirit was astonished as well. He found himself back on familiar paths many times. A maze like this was bound to keep leading him back to his starting point. If they did not find a way to solve this puzzle, they would not be able to find the exit for sure.

“Mummy, come out!”

Jiang Yi shouted in a low voice, summoning the mummy. He focused his Power of Heaven and Earth on the mummy, causing it to use its claws to strike the walls. There was a low, explosive sound. The walls flashed, and sparks appeared. Still, it was not destroyed.

“Go back!”

Jiang Yi sighed helplessly and retracted the mummy. Then, he walked towards the dead-end path. He and the Poison Spirit took an hour to find that pathway again. Jiang Yi waved his hand and said, “Go and cultivate or walk around. Don’t wander too far away. I have to think of a method to protect us once we get out of here. We need to sneak back to the Earth Domain.”

“En!”

The Poison Spirit floated away. There was no point in cultivating in such a short time. He had to think of a way to get to the fourth level.

Jiang Yi decided not to bother about him. They were safe here. Even if someone came in, he would be able to kill them easily. He sat down cross-legged and entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man. As he regulated his Power of Heaven and Earth, he brainstormed for a way out.

His Power of Heaven and Earth was very precious now. They were bound to be hunted down the moment they left the Demon-Killing Palace. He had to be prepared with enough Power of Heaven and Earth. Otherwise, if the mummy could not move, what would he use to break through the surrounding army?

It was a good thing that he had only been in the Demon-Killing Palace for a few Lower-Domain days. A day here was akin to a long time in the lower Domain. Of course… this was not inclusive of the time he and Qi Qingchen wasted outside. Both of them had only come in half a day after the Demon-Killing Palace appeared, after all.

According to his calculations, Jiang Yi still had about fifty Lower-Domain days before they would be teleported out of the Demon-Killing Palace. If he could cultivate his Power of Heaven and Earth nonstop, he would be able to produce a significant amount. At the very least, he would have much more than he did when he first entered the Demon-Killing Palace.

“Five Hundred Kilometer Accelerator? This secret art means nothing to me now.”

Jiang Yi thought about those two books on secret arts. Qi Qingchen was studying the one on Five Hundred Kilometer Accelerator. The mummy moved faster than Dao Feng. Since his cultivation level was low; there was no point in training in the Five Hundred Kilometer Accelerator.

There was no need to continue cultivating his Mighty G.o.d Technique as well. There was not much he could hope to improve by in such a short time. He immediately considered the other type of secret arts, thinking if it would be of any help.

“Thousand Illusory Hands!”

This was an illusory art, meant to support his attacks. Jiang Yi was at first confused as to exactly what kind of mystical ability this was, and so he did not spend too much time studying it closely. At that moment, however, he focused entirely on it.

First, he memorized all the contents inside the book. Once he was done with that, he entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man and began to try and realize things. He remained in that state for a full four hours before he finally understood what kind of mystical ability this was.

Thousand Illusory Hands was indeed a supportive mystical ability. To put it simply, it was an illusory technique. When used with Jiang Yi’s attack, this technique would confuse the enemy as to which attack was the real one to defend against. There would be handprints all over the sky; how frightening!

However, this Thousand Illusory Hands could only be used together with palm skills. It could not be used together with weapons. This was the downside. Without a mystical ability that made use of hand movements, this Thousand Illusory Hands would prove to be completely useless. However, according to the introduction in the book, the Thousand Illusory Hands was extremely realistic. n.o.body below Thearch-Ranked martial artists would be able to tell which attack was real and which was fake. That made the Thousand Illusory Hands quite a strong supportive attack.

“What’s the point? I don’t know any palm skills.”

Jiang Yi sighed softly. His nomological mystical abilities were very weak. He depended mostly on his other mystical ability. That meant that this Thousand Illusory Hands would be of no help to him. Even if it could create thousands of illusory hands, it could not help Jiang Yi to kill his enemies. What was the point then?

“Something isn’t right…”

Jiang Yi’s heart jumped. He seemed to know one powerful palm skill: the fire-spouting palm skill!

If he sprayed his six-colored burning flames and hit people with them, even ordinary King-Ranked martial artists would be seriously injured, if not killed. If he could use the Thousand Illusory Hands to support this attack, he would be able to easily strike anyone with that technique. The enemy would be confused and shocked by all the fire-spraying hands in the air for sure.

“That’s not right!”

Jiang Yi pondered for a moment. The flames were of extremely high temperatures. If the Thousand Illusory Hands created fake hands, they would not be able to create the same hot conditions. The enemy would then easily be able to tell which hand was real and which was fake. There would be no point, then.

“I wonder… if the Thousand Illusory Hands can be that realistic. Would it feel like flames were coming from every hand?”

Jiang Yi was confused now. If he did not train in this technique, he would never find out. Yet, if he put in the effort to realize this technique and later found out that it was useless to him, he would have wasted a lot of time. This normally would not matter, but time was precious now. This would affect whether he would make it out of the surrounding army or not.

The Poison Spirit had gone off to look for an exit, but Jiang Yi was not holding onto any hope. Now, they only had a day left before they would be teleported out. Once he was teleported out, he would be sent to a place five hundred thousand kilometers from the Demon-Killing Palace. Jiang Yi believed that he would definitely meet people at that distance away. That meant that he would be discovered the moment he left this place.

His only way out was to fight and force his way through the surrounding army. Then, he would hide or sneak back to the Earth Domain.

The Chaos Sea was huge. He had the mummy and the Art of Concealment. Even if two King-Ranked martial artists came after him, he could kill them easily. This meant that he had a chance of survival. However, this was all on the condition that he could break through the surrounding army and hide.

Jiang Yi pondered for a long time and remained conflicted for about an hour. At last, he realized that there was no other way. He had nothing else to do in any case. His only option was to train in the Thousand Illusory Hands.

“Demon-Killing Supreme Thearch, don’t disappoint me!”

Jiang Yi sighed softly. He was pacing all his hopes on the Demon-Killing Supreme Thearch. This scroll was placed in such an obvious position, and it had been so difficult for Jiang Yi to obtain it as well. If the illusory hands that it created were not realistic and the technique turned out to be useless, he would have been played by the Demon-Killing Supreme Thearch.

Jiang Yi closed his eyes and began to cultivate. The divine tree leaf was with Qi Qingchen. Since he was unsure whether this mystical ability would be of any help, he did not dare to ask for the divine tree leaf back. Instead, he left everything to fate.
