“Young Lord, let’s find a place to rest.”

In the middle of the Random Star Islands, the Poison Spirit worriedly walked to Jiang Yi’s side and said. The two of them had remained hidden for a long time. He was fine, but Jiang Yi’s soul spirit could not hang on for much longer. Keeping the Art of Concealment activated for over an extended period would consume a huge amount of energy.

Jiang Yi looked around and nodded. “Let’s look for a place to rest. Look for a big island; let’s not enter the city.”

The Demon-Killing Pearl kept pointing towards the Random Star Islands. They were already here; Jiang Yi could not possibly go back to the Earth Domain now, much less could he let go of the Demon-Killing Pearl.

The two of them remained hidden and quickly found a bigger island. This Random Star Islands probably contained at least ten thousand little islands. They were everywhere that they looked. After they landed in the middle of one of those islands, they went into a mountainous region and hid there.

“Young Lord, take a break. I will keep watch on the surroundings.”

The Poison Spirits looked at the exhausted Jiang Yi and said. Jiang Yi waved his hand and said, “Alright, you take a break as well. Allow Qingchen to make the necessary preparations.”

Jiang Yi let Qi Qingchen out and then explained the situation to her briefly. Qi Qingchen quickly allowed both of them to rest. It was no good for the Poison Spirit to reject their kind intentions; he needed to be in top condition as well. There were still many complicated and dangerous places awaiting his inspection.

Jiang Yi and the Poison Spirit both entered Qi Qingchen’s spatial divine item. Since she was alone, Qi Qingchen did not dare to explore the area. Instead, she remained in the mountainous region, keeping watch and being prepared to fight at any time.

The An Clan’s scouts and armies were still on patrol; they had not been dismissed yet. From time to time, they would appear around the corner. Since Qi Qingchen was a King-Ranked martial artist, her senses and speed were definitely much better than the lowly scouts. She managed to avoid them easily.

After resting for eight to ten hours, Jiang Yi and the Poison Spirit emerged from the spatial divine item. They kept Qi Qingchen in Jiang Yi’s spatial divine item and then continued to conceal themselves and head in the direction that the Demon-Killing Pearl led them.

This was how they carried on: after remaining concealed for tens of hours, Jiang Yi and the Poison Spirit would rest for several hours. The entire journey was smooth; they did not meet with any danger. This Random Star Islands was huge. Of course, it also felt this way because both of them did not dare to advance at top speed. From time to time, they even had to make detours. These extended their journey by half a day. Finally, they arrived in the vicinity of the Demon-Killing Palace.

They were sure of this because, once they arrived in this region, the azure dragon in the Demon-Killing Pearl stopped swimming. It was not even moving anymore. Jiang Yi asked Qi Qingchen about this and confirmed that the Demon-Killing Palace was nearby.

“Find a place to hide!”

Jiang Yi gave these instructions very decisively. They still had some time before the Demon-Killing Palace would appear. In the past, when the Demon-Killing Pearls lit up, the Demon-Killing Palace would appear at least eight days later. Ordinarily, it would appear between eight and fifteen days later. Now, only two days had pa.s.sed. There were at least six more days for them to wait. Both of them could not be standing in midair, waiting for the palace to appear, could they?

Since they had to find a place to hide, it had to be an island. Both of them looked around everything within a ten-kilometer radius several times but still found no island suitable for them to hide in.

After traveling another fifty kilometers, the Poison Spirit’s eyes lit up. “Young Lord, there seems to be a small island there.”

“Be careful.”

Jiang Yi said softly. He led the way towards that island, remaining hidden the entire time. He did not look around with his eyes open. Instead, he closed his eyes and entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man to sense the surroundings and movements on the island. In this state, he could sense restrictions being moved. If someone was hiding on that island, he would have been able to sense it.

“Safe!”

As they approached the island, Jiang Yi opened his eyes and made a gesture. Both of them entered the island and entered a mountainous region before they finally showed themselves.

Buzz!

The moment they landed, the entire island lit up. Then, a huge protective layer appeared. All around them, the thick fog started to dissipate. More than a thousand formidable martial artists suddenly appeared in the air!

“Not good!”

Jiang Yi’s gaze hardened. They were careful enough this time, but they still fell into a trap. The restrictions here were extremely mysterious and powerful; this was a divine formation. He had not sensed a single movement of restrictions here. These restrictions must have been from a Heaven Domain array formation.

“So many experts!”

He did not move around. Instead, he quietly gestured to the Poison Spirit and asked him to stand behind Jiang Yi. Then, he looked around at the people charging at him in all directions and found that there were about one or two thousand of them in total. The weakest among them was a t.i.tled Battle G.o.d. There were at least hundreds of people with Ren Tianfan’s skills. Beside a man dressed in an elegant robe stood a King-Ranked martial artist as well.

“En, there’s only one King-Ranked martial artist!”

Jiang Yi looked around and felt slightly relieved. If there had been more King-Ranked martial artists, he would be in big trouble.

His eyes glinted as he looked around. The Chaos Essence Pearl appeared in his hand, and he immediately sent the Poison Spirit in. At the same time, the Fire Dragon Sword appeared. In his other hand was the Wintry Pearl. After looking around, he said, “Everyone, what are you trying to do by surrounding me? We have no feud between us, do we?”

The formidable martial artists surrounding Jiang Yi said nothing. Instead, their weapons and armors appeared in their hands. They looked prepared to make their move. A young master among them said, “Are you Jiang Yi? We indeed do not have a feud between us. However, you took something you shouldn’t have. Hand over the Demon-Killing Pearl, and you can leave.”

“Indeed…”

Jiang Yi’s expression hardened even more. However, what he did not understand was whether this young master belonged to the Chaos Sea or the Heaven Domain. How did he recognize Jiang Yi? How did he know that Jiang Yi had the Demon-Killing Pearl?

No matter how this man recognized Jiang Yi, the situation had already come to this stage. From the way the other man was carrying himself, Jiang Yi knew that he could either hand over the Demon-Killing Pearl or prepare to battle.

A warm smile appeared on his face as he cupped his hands and said, “Young Master, I am Jiang Yi indeed, but what is a Demon-Killing Pearl? I have no clue. I’ve only come to the Chaos Sea to train my skills. How about we become friends and maintain peace between us?”

Qi Qingchen said before that they had to avoid getting into conflicts with anyone or battling them. If they could avoid a battle, what was a little sacrifice? They were here to look for treasures, not to fight.

“Friends? Do you think you’re fit?”

The young master laughed mirthlessly. “Jiang Yi, on account of the fact that we’re both of the human race and you’re quite talented, I am holding myself back. I don’t have the time to talk nonsense with you. Tell me one thing: are you handing it over or not?”

Jiang Yi’s expression became heavy, but he still did not make any moves. He just sent a thought into the Chaos Essence Pearl where Qi Qingchen was. He asked her what he should do. Qi Qingchen’s answer was very clear: ‘They could not hand over the Demon-Killing Pearl. They could fight, but he could not kill anyone; especially not the young master in front of him.’

With these instructions from Qi Qingchen, Jiang Yi knew what to do. He faced the young master and asked, “What is your name, Young Master? I can hand you the Demon-Killing Pearl, but you must open the array. Otherwise, how would I know if you would still kill me after I hand it to you?”

“What is my name? You don’t have the right to know!”

The young master did not have any regard whatsoever for Jiang Yi. A long sword appeared in his hand as he shouted in a cool voice, “You have no choice! Even if you die, the Demon-Killing Pearl will be mind. I’ll ask you one last time: are you handing it over or not?”

“Handing it over, Chief!”

Jiang Yi could not take it any longer. The Wintry Pearl in his hand lit up as countless Sword Emanations Race beings shot out. If the array was not opened, Jiang Yi would have no way out. Since this was the case, he had to fight the young master and make him submit to Jiang Yi. Then, the array would be open.

“I have already given you enough face!”

The young master hollered. The one or two thousand formidable martial artists had been activated. The King-Ranked martial artist immediately led the young master to retreat.

At the same time, the few formidable martial artists hidden on the nearby islands rushed over crazily to watch the battle. This time, they were not hidden on one island; more than ten islands within a five-thousand-kilometer radius were all filled with soldiers and formidable martial artists. They were all waiting for Jiang Yi and the other people who had the Demon-Killing Pearl to fall into their trap.
