“Gather!”

An explosive shout rang out within the Fire Phoenix Army as troops of silver-battle-armored formidable martial artists shot out from the various military tents and gathered in the drilling grounds. More than half of these hundred-odd soldiers were Qi Clan members while the others were all veterans; discipline was high, and they had all gathered orderly at Jiang Yi’s command.

“All are to head to the Teleportation Formation and teleport to the Southern Wasteland Mystic Realm! We are heading out on a mission!”

Jiang Yi did not waste his breath as he waved and brought Qi Yue, Qi Xia, Poison Spirit, and Di Ling’er towards the city plaza. Di Ling’er had become the clerk of the Fire Phoenix Army and was in-charge of battle merits distribution of the entire Fire Phoenix Army. She wielded considerable authority; only just beneath that of Qi Yue and Qi Xia.

As the group gathered and arrived in the city plaza, a light flashed from one of the castles as a white figure flew out. In the blink of an eye, this figure was already standing in front of Jiang Yi and company. Qi Qingchen wore her battle armor and looked exceptionally valiant and heroic; she looked something completely different. Qi Qingchen looked at her Fire Phoenix Army as she said, “All Fire Phoenix Army soldiers, listen! I will not take a single battle merit from Fire Phoenix Army missions; all will be given for all of you to be shared. Everyone is to fight valiantly; whoever dies, I will compensate your families ten million divine roots apiece!”

“Wow!”

A commotion instantly broke out among the Fire Phoenix Army while many spectators near the city plaza also started to chat among themselves. Jiang Yi was impressed. Qi Qingchen’s move was splendidly executed; everyone in the Fire Phoenix Army would fight with their lives now, right?

Furthermore, once this news spread, many formidable martial artists among the other armies would be tempted as well, right? If a general went along in battle, regulations stated that he or she would get a third of the total battle merits. Now, not only did Qi Qingchen say she didn’t want any of the battle merits, but she had also dispelled any worries or reservations the entire army had. Even if they died in battle, their families would be well taken care of for their entire lives.

The majority of the army entered one Teleportation Formation; the Teleportation Formations here were vast, and the Fire Phoenix Army’s hundred-odd men could be transported at once. After the Teleportation Formation lit up and the Fire Phoenix Army had been teleported away, young masters and young mistresses came flying out from their castles and started to discuss what had happened. Of course... many were making sarcastic remarks, and they were rather bitter.

...

The Southern Wasteland Mystic Realm was not far from the Demon-Buster Valley. These mystic realms were located in the spatial zone and had already existed since the Ancient Age. These mystic realms lacked spirit energy and so were inhabitable by humans. Also, many mystic realms’ conditions were bad; even armies deigned to set up camp in these places.

Of course, some mystic realms were naturally blessed and filled with resources. The Ink Feather Mystic Realm was one such mystic realm; it was the number-one mystic realm in the Earth Domain. The heaven and earth spirit energy inside was extremely concentrated, and it also possessed all types of mystic beings. The Ink Feather Race had benefited immensely from it and thus had always dominated as the number-one race in the Earth Domain.

The Southern Wasteland Mystic Realm was rather big; it was also an infamously dangerous place. Poisonous gases abound, and if humans remained in this place for long, their bodily functions would be affected as well. Hence, no army or troop had set up camp here while this place had also become the perfect invasion point for the Netherworld Realm. Netherworld Realm beings would constantly invade this place, and if they weren’t exterminated, they were bound to be trouble.

Buzz!

A streak of white light flashed. Although the intelligence gathered stated that the Southern Wasteland Mystic Realm was not far from the Demon-Buster Valley, Jiang Yi felt as if they had teleported for at least six to seven hours. When they finally reached, Jiang Yi’s body shook as he almost fell flat on the ground. Fortunately, Poison Spirit immediately assisted him to support him.

No one else had any adverse reactions at all. Many soldiers all turned to look at Jiang Yi with doubt and mockery on their faces. They didn’t understand why Qi Qingchen would choose this person to be the Inspector-General? Qi Yue and Qi Xia also now confirmed that Jiang Yi was indeed rather weak; he wasn’t hiding his strength at all. His face was frighteningly white now.

“Map!”

Qi Qingchen ignored Jiang Yi as she looked about and shouted. Qi Yue had long made arrangements as she hurriedly retrieved a map from the Southern Wasteland Mystic Realm. Qi Qingchen took a few looks, identified the mission location, and—after Jiang Yi had recovered a little—said, “The mission location is to the south. It will take us less than half a day to reach there; Qi Fei, lead us and pave the way ahead.”

“Yes!”

One Demon-Killing Battle God cupped his hands and received the order. He brought ten men and shot forward into the distance. Jiang Yi was finally not feeling that dizzy anymore as he looked about to size up the place as his face darkened considerably.

They were standing on an altar now; this altar only had one Teleportation Formation, and the surroundings were filled with totems just like the Demon-Buster Valley. These totems formed a light shield and were protecting the altar. There were only three guardians at the altar. They were sitting cross-legged in a corner and ignoring the Fire Phoenix Army completely.

Outside the altar, it was a wasted and barren land. Black fog covered many areas while the sky was rather dark. Furthermore, the heaven and earth spirit energy here was even lower than that of the Stellarsky Domain’s. As Jiang Yi looked around, there weren’t many trees present while a sense of foreboding seemed to spread, making people feel uncomfortable as if demons and monsters were hiding all around, ready to strike at any moment.

“Go!”

Qi Qingchen took a look at Jiang Yi as she flew outside the light shield, with Qi Yue and Qi Xia following behind closely. Poison Spirit brought Jiang Yi and followed along, with Di Ling’er behind them. The main army of a hundred and thirty-odd soldiers took up the rear.

Once they flew out of the light shield, the aura outside was even more unbearable. It felt as if they had entered the Netherworld Realm, and an aura of death surrounded them; it was a demonic aura that was corrosive in nature. Jiang Yi sized up the surroundings and didn’t say anything as Poison Spirit brought him along. Jiang Yi’s current speed was still too slow; if he flew on his own, he would never be able to catch up with the main army.

The hundred and thirty-odd soldiers behind saw that Jiang Yi was actually being brought along by someone else as their eyes revealed a sliver of mockery. All formidable martial artists had pride; if the Inspector-General was more powerful than them, they would definitely submit to his authority. However, Jiang Yi’s current strength was that of an ant’s to them; he had actually climbed above their heads?

Of course, Qi Qingchen had the unquestionable authority and status. This had been her order, and no one dared to second guess. However, they naturally felt a little disgruntled inside.

As they flew about, Jiang Yi felt bored and was a little perplexed and wondered if Qi Qingchen had a high-class Divine Boat or not, the type that could fly extremely fast. Flying was rather boring and tiring as well.

Thinking about this, he sent a voice transmission to Qi Qingchen. The latter did not even bother using a voice transmission as she said out loud, “Jiang Yi, if you only have this amount of intellect, you shouldn’t waste your time thinking about becoming King-Ranked. Even the most powerful Divine Boats’ speed cannot rival that of Demon-Killing Battle Gods; unless they were Chaos Divine Boats. Furthermore, Chaos Divine Boats could only fly in the spatial zone; we are currently in a mystic realm. Remember not to ask me such an idiotic question next time; you can ask Poison Spirit instead...”

Jiang Yi scratched his nose, embarrassed. To be talked to like this was very damaging to his dignity, especially since it came from a beautiful woman.

Jiang Yi twitched his lips as he decided to enter the State of the Union of Heaven and Man to cultivate. Although this journey was only less than a day, it was a long time for him. Qi Fei had already sent men to check out the surroundings, and they were very safe. What’s more, Qi Qingchen was with them, right?

However, the spirit energy here was extremely low; he couldn’t cultivate much at all. Jiang Yi decided to continue realizing his nomological mystical abilities, to consolidate his Art of Concealment, and think more about the Divine Sound Heaven Skill. Time passed very fast this way. He was still in seclusion when Poison Spirit suddenly sent a voice transmission: “Young Master, we have arrived. The battle is about to begin.”

“Oh, oh!”

Jiang Yi’s eyes opened wide as he looked around. He discovered they were just outside a huge valley; mountain peaks protruded into the heavens on both sides while the dense forest in the valley was enshrouded in black fog; divine senses were severely impacted by it.

Swish!

Qi Fei brought a few men and floated by from the valley. He genuflected in mid-air and said, “General, we have scouted ahead; the Netherworld Race is indeed inside.”

“Heaven-Revolving Formation! Enter the valley!”

Qi Qingchen yelled out as a red, flexible sword appeared in her hands. The hundred-odd soldiers immediately spread out from Qi Qingchen and formed into a circular formation that kept on spinning as the army speedily headed into the valley.
