Chapter 1214: Green Snakes

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Night Empress had a beautiful dress, which was also a formidable ancient artifact with frightening defensive powers. At that moment, her red whisk dress was hanging from a tree. The Buddha Emperor and the others studied it closely and confirmed that the red whisk dress belonged to the Night Empress.

“Don’t go over there!”

Jiang Yi saw that the Night Emperor was charging toward the dress and immediately called out to him. The tree in front of them was several times bigger than the ones they saw before. It stood a total of three hundred meters tall. This tree’s branches were so full that its leaves combined spanned about thirty meters wide. It also looked much stronger than the trees they saw before. If the Night Emperor got caught by this tree, even Jiang Yi might not be able to help him.

Sadly, when the Night Emperor saw the dress, he thought that the Night Empress had been hurt. He did not bother to listen to Jiang Yi. Instead, he just charged forward in a frenzy. The Buddha Emperor raised his eyebrows and screamed, “Ye Mo, calm down; the Night Empress hasn’t died!”

The Buddha Emperor’s voice echoed throughout the forest, sounding just like thunder. Jiang Yi, who was standing next to the Buddha Emperor, felt pain in his eardrums. This must be some kind of mystical ability. The Night Emperor immediately snapped out of his frenzy. He stared at the scene in front of him for several seconds before heaving out a long sigh. There was a dress hanging on this tree, but there were no corpses or bones. The Night Empress was an eight-star formidable martial artist, and she had a very strong body. Even if she really was killed, at least her bones would remain behind. Yet, there were no bones in the vicinity.

He made a big round around the big tree out of fear. At last, he came back, not having found a single bone. He turned to the Buddha Emperor. “Monk, are you sure my mother is not dead?”

“Did you see the signs of a battle nearby?”

The Buddha Emperor widened his eyes and pointed to the countless pits around the big tree. “Those were obviously caused by your Majesty Mother’s Fairy Scattering Blossoms dao pattern. Since your mother was able to deal this blow, do you think she was subdued? What’s more, your mother is with my father. Do you think this tree would have been able to capture her so easily?”

“That’s true...”

The Night Emperor pondered over this for a moment and realized that the Buddha Emperor had a point. The Buddha Thearch was one of the strongest people in the Stellarsky Domain. This tree may be strong, but they all knew full well the true power of the Buddha Thearch’s nine-star dao pattern. There was no way that this tree would have defeated the Buddha Thearch.

“Go!”

The red whisk dress was proof that the Buddha Thearch and the others were all in this strange space as well. They began to speed up, but everyone was even more on guard now. They did not dare to get near the tree. If they met with more similar trees in front, they knew that they would much rather make a detour than go near them.

They walked in this way for eight to ten hours, and at last felt like there was no end to this journey. This island was so big that it felt boundless. It was almost as if they would never see the end of it.

“This isn’t right!”

The Buddha Emperor frowned and suddenly stopped walking. “This is either a very long island, or we are in some kind of maze. Otherwise, we should see where this island ends by now.”

“It doesn’t look like a maze.”

The Yin Emperor looked around. He did not feel like he had seen the surroundings before. This meant that they were not making circles in this place. Jiang Yi did not think this was a maze, too. From time to time, he entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man. He did not once feel any restrictions around them.

As expected!

After walking for two more hours, they found hints of another battle inside a huge canyon. Many boulders had fallen into the canyon. There were also more pits around. On seeing these pits, the Night Emperor nodded and rejoiced. “This is the Fairy Scattering Blossoms. Majesty Mother is not dead!”

The Xuan Emperor and Yin Emperor rejoiced as well. The latter waved his hand and said, “Let’s go! Let’s follow these battle marks. We’ll find them for sure.”

“Stop!”

Jiang Yi and the Buddha Emperor shouted out at the exact same time. Both of them had dark expressions. Jiang Yi entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man and realized that something was amiss. The Buddha Emperor, on the other hand, was just thinking far ahead. He cautiously said, “This canyon seems problematic. Since the Clan Head and the others were caught in battle, it means that this canyon is dangerous. Don’t let your guard down, everyone.”

“That’s right!”

The Yin Emperor and the two others finally regained their composure. Jiang Yi nodded subtly. These three were obviously thrown off by their concern. Either that, or they were just plain lazy to think since the Buddha Emperor was here. They were committing so many basic mistakes that Jiang Yi began to wonder how they became the Family Head of their respective families.

Yet, he could not entirely blame them. The Buddha Emperor was the most talented man of their generation. In terms of skill and intelligence, he surpassed all of them. All these years, they relied on the Buddha Emperor. Of course, they would not have thought too much about matters.

What’s more, Jiang Yi’s sudden appearance caused them all to feel awkward and embarrassed. A younger man was proving to be even more powerful than them. Anyone in their place would feel threatened. Seeing signs of battle from the Buddha Thearch and the others must have been the final straw.

The group calmed themselves down and continued moving forward. Mei Ru was leading the group. The Yin Emperor and Night Emperor were in the second row, Jiang Yi was in the middle, and the Buddha Emperor and Xuan Emperor were right behind. Jiang Yi entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man once again. They could not use their divine senses to check the surroundings here so he became the group’s eyes.

“Mei Ru, move back. Everyone, be careful on the left!”

After walking a few thousand meters, Jiang Yi suddenly shouted. Mei Ru jumped back at once, her two hands prepared to deal a demonic attack. Black fog flowed out from her hands toward the cliff in front of them.

Swish!

From a crack in the cliff on their left, a green snake suddenly shot out. It traveled extremely quickly. Although it was only as thick as one’s thumb and as long as one’s arm, it moved as fast as the wind. It was much faster than the small stone monsters from the sea.

Pong-Pong!

Mei Ru’s demonic attack did not do much harm to the little green snake except throw it backward. However, as the poisonous fog wrapped around the little green snake, it slowly turned into a cage for it.

“Be careful, everyone. This little green snake has very strong defensive powers. Even my poisonous fog is having difficulty penetrating its skin,” Mei Ru warned them with a serious expression.

How, how! Chi, chi!

The Yin Emperor and Night Emperor were beginning to attack as well, but even their attacks only sent the little green snake flying backward even more. There were two white scars on the green snake’s body, but it was not seriously injured. The things on this island were really extremely strange. A little child outside this strange space could kill a little green snake just by playing with it, and yet a few formidable martial artists like them could not even kill one in here.

“There are many green snakes up ahead. Everyone, get ready to attack while we walk, but don’t engage in battle!”

Jiang Yi suddenly exploded. He waved his Fire Dragon Sword around, summoning tens of thousands of little fire dragons. These little green snakes were acting just like the small stone monsters from the sea. They were difficult to kill, but Jiang Yi was not aiming to kill them. He just wanted them to move backward.

“That’s right!”

The Buddha Emperor called out as well. “Don’t kill them, just force them to retreat. We don’t want to alert the boss. We need to move forward as fast as we can!”

The people in the group were not stupid. Each of them locked in on different areas of snakes and began to attack, causing them to fly back in all directions. The group advanced quickly, but the further they got, the more green snakes there seemed to be. Countless of them were jumping out of the holes in the cliff, almost covering the entire air with them. Jiang Yi celebrated in his heart that there were so many formidable martial artists in the group. If he was alone in fighting the snakes, he would be exhausted to death for sure.

The group gathered into a circle. Jiang Yi and the Buddha Emperor were stuck in the middle of the circle. The latter was in charge of attacking the snakes that were coming at them from the top, while the former was in charge of lending support. They each focused on different directions, advancing steadily. The burden in each of them was lessened as a result.

At that moment, every single one of them respected Jiang Yi. Each time he attacked, he reacted much quicker than the rest of them. What’s more, when they were facing the strongest attack, all Jiang Yi had to do was wave his sword around and summon tens of thousands of fire dragons. Tens of little green snakes would retreat as a result, allowing them to attack with more ease.

After Jiang Yi became a Demigod, and with the help of his Fire Dragon Sword—which was stronger than even his divine artifact, the Mystic Divine Saber—he was able to easily deal attacks equivalent to six-star martial artists. What’s more, each casual attack he did summon tens of thousands of little Fire Dragons. It was very effective in dealing with these snakes.

For two hours, they traveled this way. Jiang Yi once again stopped and shouted, “Be careful, everyone! We are coming to the end of the canyon. There seems to be a big one in front!”
