Ten-thousand feet under the Ice Sea—in the underground tunnel of the ice layer, one lone man was making his way forward. He had been pressing on for a full day and night. He was heading towards the Ice Island. Many ice beasts and ice imps were there. However, he believed that at this point in time, that was the safest place in the entire Snow Region.
 

The Ice Sea was in the center of the ten sacred mountains. The place was chaotic, and thus ordinarily, no Demigod martial expert would deign to go there. Even if one were to rush to the Ice Island from one of the sacred mountains, that would require some time. It would be enough for him to escape easily.
 

The man was naturally Jiang Yi who had used Heaven Evasion to leave Heaven Devil Mountain. However, he did not use Heaven Evasion directly to Ice Island but chose to appear outside the Ice Sea and find a passageway in. There were many martial artists in the Ice Sea, and it was easy to be detected. He also needed one or two days to know if Mo Shen was coming to kill him.
 

In the Snow Region, only the Heaven Devil Race would walk underground. Jiang Yi had walked in the underground passageway for one full day and one full night. He had not encountered anyone from the Heaven Devil Race or other races while Mo Shen had not come after him, too.
 

After walking for one more day, he reached the vicinity of the Ice Island close to nighttime. He entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man and sent his divine senses out. Following the passageway up to the surface, he scanned his surroundings. He confirmed that there was no sign or aura from any Demigods and then opened his eyes, letting out a gush of air.
 

The speed of Demigod martial experts was extremely fast. If Mo Shen intended to kill Jiang Yi and was able to track Jiang Yi, Mo Shen probably would have long arrived. Since Mo Shen had not, that meant Jiang Yi was safe.
 


Sigh…

 

In his mind, Mo Yao’er’s heart-wrenching cries rang repeatedly. Jiang Yi felt a sense of guilt well up in him. He was not a cold-blooded creature. Even if it was a dog that he had spent a long time with, feelings would have developed; what more if it was Mo Yao’er, the girl who had loved him so.
 


Hope that Mo Yao’er can forget me!

 

He thought about what he was about to do, as well as the unknown future, and steeled himself. This innocent girl would never be happy if she followed him; she might even die together with him… because of him. It was preferable that she spent her entire life safe and sound in the Snow Region.
 


Scout!

 

He stopped thinking about this, sat cross-legged, and released his Divine Perception. He scouted a two-hundred-and-fifty-kilometers radius and was satisfied with the results. There were only two small bands nearby, with not a single four or five-star martial expert; they were not a threat to him.
 


Cultivate!

 

He didn’t care about anything else and started cultivating cross-legged. He had already filled up his sixth star sphere with essence force. If he cultivated more, the star sphere would definitely change; his essence force would also reach the Heaven Monarch Realm.
After the star sphere changed, his soul spirit would—more or less—grow as well. He could also gain some power of the stars. After gaining some power of the stars from mastering the Icebound Thousand Miles—with the additional powers this time, he could perhaps start activating the Smelting Divine Furnace.
 

Three days later, there was a shift in the wind and the clouds above Ice Island, astonishing all the martial artists in the thousand-mile radius. Above the Nine Heavens came a streak of divine light, heading straight down under the Ice Island. Everyone was incredibly envious.
The Heaven and Earth Anomaly bequeathed the powers of the stars. It was a phenomenon that would only appear when someone had attained a five-star-or-above dao pattern. Hence, everyone near the Ice Island thought that someone was hiding under the Ice Island, cultivating, and had ultimately mastered a strong dao pattern.
 


Let’s go and see!

 

Coincidentally, a Tiger Subdue Sect commander was bringing a troop of martial artists nearby to kill ice beasts. That commander muttered to himself, waved his hand, and entered the underground passageway with his men. He wanted to see who was there. If it was an enemy of Tiger Subdue Sect, he could use this opportunity to kill the enemy while he was cultivating.
 

Buzz!
 

The nine star spheres in Jiang Yi’s dantian were all glowing brightly; each was shining a different glow. The sixth star sphere was the brightest, its blue light dazzling. Jiang Yi’s thoughts were resting in the star sphere and realized that a sliver of the power of the stars was entering his body. It finally entered his sixth star sphere and rested there.
 


Power of the stars, this is great stuff!

 

Jiang Yi silently exclaimed. He realized that his soul spirit was also slowly growing. He estimated that after this, his Rainbow Soul Spear could fly freely for forty to fifty rounds, and up to twenty-thousand feet away.
 

Tsk! Tsk!
 

At this moment, a slight noise rang out from afar. Jiang Yi used his divine senses and smiled coldly. He was just thinking of trying out the power of his Rainbow Soul Spear. The group of people approaching would be the best targets.
 


Go!

 

Jiang Yi’s eyes widened and from his brows, a seven-colored radiance shined. A streak of divine rainbow flew by, penetrating the black dirt and appearing in an instant… in front of the Tiger Subdue Sect commander’s head.
 


Ah? What is this?

 

The Tiger Subdue Sect commander’s eyes shrank, and from the depths of his soul spirit, a warning of fatal death surfaced. He did not hesitate and deployed his soul spirit force to block the Rainbow Soul Spear that was about to enter his brain.
 

Bang!
 

The Tiger Subdue Sect was known to be skilled at soul spirit attacks; their soul spirit defensive ability was not shabby either. However, it was not a match for the Rainbow Soul Spear. The Rainbow Soul Spear flew by and cracked the commander’s soul spirit, flying out from the back of his head. It then flew towards the Tiger Subdue Sect members behind the commander.
 

Thud! Thud!
 

The Rainbow Soul Spear flew in a straight line and could not be blocked. Its speed was too fast. The Tiger Subdue Sect disciples did not even manage to see clearly what was happening. All they felt was a streak of multi-colored light piercing them, and they fell dead immediately.
 

The troop was made up of more than thirty people. Within two breaths, all their soul spirits had been destroyed. They lay on the ground and died.
 

Tsk! Tsk!
 

The Rainbow Soul Spear flew back, and Jiang Yi examined it. He found out that there was no damage to it whatsoever. His face was extremely agitated. The power of his Rainbow Soul Spear had indeed grown immensely. While he did not know exactly by how much, he was confident that if he was facing other Heaven Monarch ranked martial expert, he could kill them easily.
 


The strength of my soul spirit had indeed increased significantly. En… I should still retreat first. If there were any Demigods nearby, there would be trouble.

 

Jiang Yi stood up, and his gaze swept over the bodies. His hand glowed with a red light, as he was preparing to burn the bodies to destroy evidence. His Rainbow Soul Spear was a secret weapon; he could not let anyone find out anything.
 


This isn’t right!

 

The Nine Heavens Dragon Flames in his hand flashed and disappeared. His Ancient Divine Essence Ring lit up, and two awls appeared. Those were awls belonging to the Dwarf Race; Jiang Yi had collected a few last time. He had even taken the two ancient artifacts that Qiu Bai had—the Reliance Awls. However, these two awls were too conspicuous; Jiang Yi had not dared to take them out, afraid that people would see. The Clan Head of Dwarf Race would definitely come after him to kill him.
 

Bang, Bang, Bang!
 

He held an awl from the Dwarf Race and smashed the brains of the Tiger Subdue Sect members, smashing them to bits. With the brains in bits and pieces, no one would be able to guess how they had died.
 


Hehe!

 

After smashing all the heads and seeing those bloodied corpses, Jiang Yi suddenly had an idea. He thought of an ingenious plan that could completely annihilate the entire Dwarf Race.
 

Buzz!
 

His body flashed white as he slowly changed his appearance, into a three-feet tall member of the Dwarf Race. He held both the awls and had a murderous look in his eyes. His aura was strong; from afar, people would associate him as a formidable martial expert from the Dwarf Race.
 


Go!

 

His short and rough legs moved as he dashed into the distance holding two huge awls. This time, he was prepared to wreak havoc throughout the entire Snow Region.
