Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 999 - Heaven Devil Palace

Chapter 999: Heaven Devil Palace

The battle ended very quickly. With Jiang Yi’s ‘Icebound Thousand Miles’, it was too easy to kill. After the Dwarf Race’s experts were wiped out, the rest of the people were slaughtered like fish on a chopping board. They were killed one after the other and were completely eliminated.

Jiang Yi had also quickly learned of why these two groups Heaven Devil Race and Dwarf Race were battling. Qiu Ming had indeed planned to capture Mo Yao’er and actually gathered an army of a few tens of thousands to scatter around the Heaven Devil Mountain and arranged two layers of defense line to stop the Heaven Devil Race’s reinforcements.

After Mo Yao’er’s messenger reported, the Heaven Devil Race’s Patriarch had personally gathered an army of 20,000 to rescue Mo Yao’er. However, when these 20,000 individuals traveled a few thousand miles outside of the Heaven Devil Mountain, they had encountered obstructions and ambushes. Had it not been for the higher number of experts from the Heaven Devil Race that came, the reinforcements might have to return.

After all the battles, the reinforcement group lost over 10,000 men and finally broke through the first line of defense. However, they didn’t expect to encounter another obstruction, and if Jiang Yi and his group didn’t arrive, these few thousands of people would have been wiped out.

Ss, ss...

Mo Yao’er, Mo Qi, and the other took a deep cold breath after getting the news. They were also silently rejoicing that Jiang Yi had appeared. Otherwise, even if they broke out of Qiu Ming’s entrapment, they would also face death.

“Go!”

Mo Qi was afraid there might be more ambushes and didn’t dare to delay. He asked everyone to clean up the battlefield and collect some corpses before leading the legion back to Heaven Devil Mountain.

“Elder Mo Qi, why are there only 20,000 men in the reinforcement?”

As Jiang Yi ran, he transmitted a message to Mo Qi and asked. Mo Yao’er had encountered danger, it was understandable if Mo Shen didn’t personally mobilize to rescue her, but he only sent 20,000 men? The Heaven Devil Race had a million race members, and their military had at least 300 or 400 thousand men. It wasn’t appropriate to just send 20,000 men, right?

Mo Qi’s expression turned dark and looked around before transmitting a message back: “An army of 300,000 Mammoth Race had arrived at the south of Heaven Devil Mountain. They might not show any signs to attack the mountain, but they are obviously showing their military prowess. The Patriarch wasn’t able to find out the clear intentions of the Mammoth Race and naturally didn’t dare to act recklessly. Mo Xing, this is confidential information, and you must not divulge it.”

So that is the case.

Jiang Yi suddenly realized it, and his frowns were locked together as he had a headache. The Heaven Hidden Sect’s Fifth Eldress mentioned that the Dwarf, Mammoth, and Fire Chi Races had an alliance, but he had never heard that the Heaven Devil Race had any alliance with other races, right? He even wanted to rely on the Heaven Devil Race to eliminate the Dwarf Race. From the looks of the situation... it seemed like the Heaven Devil Race was going to be eliminated by the Dwarf Race.

Stop thinking. Let me return to Heaven Devil Mountain before deciding anything. If it really cannot work. I will leave with the Heaven Evasion and think of another method.

Jiang Yi decided not to overthink and followed on with the journey. This time, they didn’t encounter any more Dwarf Race members and had been received by the Heaven Devil Race’s army after traveling for half a day. This time, 50,000 men came with countless experts among them, making it completely safe.

The army had surrounded Mo Yao’er, Mo Qi, Jiang Yi, and others in the center; and they didn’t travel underground but was marching openly on the surface. Mo Tian followed Jiang Yi and when he saw those ‘influential figures’ that he rarely had the chance to see, bowing to him respectfully and asking about his well-being, he couldn’t help but feel deeply moved and was able to walk with a straighter back.

After returning to Heaven Devil Mountain again, Jiang Yi didn’t feel overly emotional. When he saw Mo Yao’er looking at him intentionally or otherwise, he would feel even more headache. He simply transmitted a message to Mo Qi before he flew back to his own cave dwelling with Mo Tian and didn’t even look at Mo Yao’er for a single time.

“Hur-Hur!”

When Mo Yao’er saw Jiang Yi directly flying off, she felt a pain on her face. She snorted coldly and soared up and flew towards the peak of Heaven Devil Mountain.

After Mo Qi and the other elders made the arrangements, they also flew to the peak of the mountain to report about the battle situation to Mo Shen in order to make a proper counterattack response against the Dwarf Race. This time, Qiu Ming had died in battle, and when the news traveled back to the Dwarf Race, it would surely give up to a huge insurrection. They reckoned that a huge battle was imminent.

“Elder brother Mo Tian, I have suffered injuries and will go recuperate first. Unless the elders ask to see me, I will not see anyone else! During this period of time, it is best that you don’t venture out. I reckon that a huge battle is going to start.”

When Jiang Yi saw Mo Tian’s younger brother and sister come to welcome them, he felt another headache. He quickly gave his instruction and entered his cave dwelling to cultivate. His injuries had indeed yet to fully recover, and he required a good rest to recover his stamina and energy and in order to respond to various changes.

On this day, the Heaven Devil Mountain was very lively, and countless people were flying in and out. Countless scouts had gone out to scout the situation within 100,000 miles. Mo Qi had just returned and got sent out again so were many of the other elders.

In the vicinity of the Heaven Devil Mountain, there was an army of 500,000 that were constantly on the alert and patrolling. The atmosphere of the Heaven Devil Mountain had gotten stern, and Mo Qi and the others had hidden the fact that there was a Mammoth Race army of 200,000 which was stationed in the south. Nonetheless, the Heaven Devil Race members still had a premonition that a huge incident was going to happen. Plenty of people had perished in the recent battles, causing the skies above the Heaven Devil Mountain to have a subtle stench of blood. It wouldn’t disperse no matter what.

The outside was having a huge disturbance, but Jiang Yi didn’t bother and peacefully cultivated and recuperated since he was unable to change the circumstances.

He was a little surprised because... Mo Shen actually didn’t summon to see him. He had been recuperating for two days, and other than one of the elders coming to ask about him, they actually didn’t send any orders.

“What’s happening?”

Jiang Yi opened his eyes. After recuperating for two days, his injuries were no longer a problem. He stood up and looked outside the stone window with bewilderment as he saw countless soldiers patrolling the sky.

Putting aside the fact that he had rescued Mo Yao’er and that he had eliminated so many Dwarf Race members, just simply talking about his strength and age... If Mo Shen was to receive this report, he would immediately summon to see Jiang Yi to win him over and to nurture him, right? However, not only did Mo Shen not summon to see Jiang Yi, but there were also no rewards and bestowment of titles.

Jiang Yi stood at the window for half a day, and the sky was gradually getting dusky. No orders were passed down yet. He had no choice but to helplessly sit cross-legged and start his cultivation. He couldn’t possibly barge into the Heaven Devil Palace in the peak of the Heaven Devil Mountain, right? Doing so would just result in immediate death.

Swish! Swish!

When the sky was completely dusky, a figure descended from the high altitudes and landed in front of Jiang Yi’s cave dwelling. Mo Tian immediately emerged, and when he noticed it was an elder, he quickly bowed and greeted. “Greetings to Elder Mo Fu.”

“En.”

The elder nodded and smiled. “Mo Tian, your lineage is to shift immediately and reside in the sixteenth level. This is an order from the Grand Elder.”

“Sixteenth level?”

Mo Tian’s huge body had shivered. All the ten sacred mountains had eighteen levels, and the topmost level was meant for the sect patriarch or the race patriarch. The seventeenth level was meant for the elders while the sixteenth level was meant for those chief commanders who had exceptional battle merits.

Back then, Mo Tian and Mo Xing’s grandfather had resided in the sixteenth level for one year and after their grandfather passed away, their lineage was immediately demoted. Mo Tian couldn’t imagine that they still had an opportunity to reside in the sixteenth level again in this lifetime.

“Hurry up and pack up. After you shift there, there will be people making arrangements for you.”

Elder Mo Fu waved his hand and walked towards Mo Xing’s cave dwelling. He knocked, and the door and spoke in a deep voice, “Mo Xing, quickly wake up and follow me to Heaven Devil Palace.”

“Heaven Devil Palace?”

Jiang Yi’s eyes had suddenly opened and were glowing with radiance. Mo Shen had finally summoned for him? Mo Shen was a Demigod expert. Would he be able to see through Jiang Yi’s Mirage Divine Ability in a single glance?
