Witch God’s forbidden ground!
Jiang Yi’s eyes shrank. Didn’t the Soul Travel Realm expert from Qian Clan mention that the forbidden ground existed in the Netherworld Forest? He didn’t expect that he would follow in unconsciously.
However, he wasn’t too fearful about it. He looked ahead with his gloomy cold eyes while the Fire Dragon Sword appeared. He then used it to suddenly cleave in front.
Tsk-Tsk!
Two fire dragons were launched out, but Jiang Yi was shocked when Yun Lu actually vanished from where he stood. The two fire dragons quickly vanished in the thick white fog without making contact with anything.
Swish!
He released his Massacre Intent and sprinted ahead. When he reached where Yun Lu was standing earlier, he finally understood why Yun Lu suddenly vanished. Right ahead was this 30-kilometer cliff, which Yun Lu apparently jumped off.
Tsk-Tsk!
He abruptly cleaved down the cliff with the two fire dragons, and similarly, the fire dragons didn’t make contact with any obstacles. It was truly a 30-kilometer-deep abyss.
It was a bottomless deep abyss with thick white fog. Jiang Yi naturally didn’t dare to jump down recklessly. He was determined that with Yun Lu’s current strength, he was certainly dead!
Of course, he had to be certain. He still circled around the area and made sure Yun Lu wasn’t around before he went back where he came from. The place where he entered the white fog was just several hundred meters away, and he didn’t believe that he wasn’t able to walk out of the Witch God’s forbidden ground.
He didn’t dare to use the Soul-Devouring Shifting Art as he was afraid he might just drop down the deep abyss. He walked back the way he came in from. There was white fog everywhere, and there were no trees around. There was no way to differentiate the direction. Jiang Yi could only walk in a straight line.
Eh?
After walking for fifteen minutes, Jiang Yi suddenly exclaimed. His eyes were wide opened as though he saw a ghost. There was a bottomless cliff in front of him which had white fog tumbling below, causing his heart to palpitate.
How is this possible?!
Jiang Yi blinked his eyes. He took out the Fire Dragon Sword and shot out two fire dragons again. When he was sure that this was a cliff, his expression turned grave as he felt this had become a serious problem!
He was advancing in a straight line, and when he came from that side, there weren’t any cliffs. He was currently at the side of a cliff? There was only one explanation… this place was an illusion zone.
Jiang Yi quickly became frantic and ran for an entire hour. He was finally certain that this place was an extremely formidable illusion zone. No matter which direction he walked, he would end up by the side of this cliff.
Big Huang!
Jiang Yi didn’t despair. The spirit beast talisman lit up in his hands when an enormous beast appeared. He leaped onto the Zouwu Beast and yelled,
Big Huang, dig into the ground.
The result… was a tragedy!
The Zouwu Beast’s six strange horns brightened up with yellow light, but the surface of the ground was like a ten-thousand-year-old black iron. The yellow light, which was able to turn all mud and stones into dust, was actually unable to break through the surface of the ground.
I don’t believe it!
Jiang Yi withdrew Big Huang and used the Fire Dragon Sword to cleave towards the ground. The result was mere sparks while his hand was numbed by the rebounding force. The surface of the ground lit up with a soft white light, which was obviously a restriction.
Fire Spirit Rock!
Jiang Yi gritted his teeth and took out another piece of Fire Spirit Rock. This time, it was effective. The surface of the ground was glistening with white light while the Fire Spirit Rock rapidly burn through the surface of the ground, quickly burning a six-meter pit. The problem was… what could this pit do? The surrounding ground was also had a similar hardness which was comparable to saint artifacts—unscratchable.
There were six pieces of Fire Spirit Rocks left, and Jiang Yi didn’t want to use it recklessly anymore. He muttered to himself for a moment and finally decided to use his trump… the Soul-Devouring Shifting Art!
This ability was very dominant, which was very dangerous when used; but Jiang Yi had no other choice. His body flashed with a gentle white light while he locked in and shifted towards the opposite side of the cliff.
Ah…
The result was a tragedy for him. When his body reappeared, he realized that he was suspended in mid-air and below him was the deep abyss. His body was rapidly descending, he actually… instant-shifted to the top of the deep abyss.
I am done for!
Sensing that his descending speed was getting faster, Jiang Yi could smell a trace of death’s aura presence. Who wouldn’t be smashed into smithereens after falling from such a tall cliff?
His body was in mid-air. Because he was rapidly falling, he had no control over his body; and his mind was in a mess. He had no way to release the Soul-Devouring Shifting Art, and he was in the midst of a fall. Even if he could instant shift, where could he shift to?
Boom!
Gradually, his mind was becoming dizzy from the pressure due to the rapid descend, causing him to finally faint. His body was still falling, and the thick white fog constantly tumbled around. The bottom was nowhere to be seen, and it seemed like the bottom of this cliff was the nine netherworlds.
…
Zhan Wushuang and Qian Wanguan didn’t know that Jiang Yi had entered the Netherworld Forest’s Witch God’s forbidden ground in other to pursue Yun Lu.
They were rather quick to kill all the rest of the remaining enemies, not even sparing a single life. They then quickly cleaned up the battlefield, making sure not to leave behind any trace of evidence. They then evacuated through the underground tunnel.
The two clans lost seven elite class experts in the pursuit of Yun Lu and Lu Lao—even Jiang Yi went to go chase. If they were still unable to kill Yun Lu, then it was truly heaven’s will.
They evacuated very quickly. Zhan Wushuang asked Qian Wanguan to follow the army and evacuate towards the Great Xia Kingdom while he led a few Soul Travel Realm experts and chased into the depths of the forest.
The army from Mystic Dark City was going to arrive at any moment. If Zhan Wushuang didn’t evacuate in time, he might have to die here in the Netherworld Forest forever. He still insisted on going. If Jiang Yi didn’t return, he had this indescribable feeling of unease.
The army from Mystic Dark City arrived in just six hours. Apart from the scars of the battle, they couldn’t even see a single corpse.
Before Zhan Wushuang left, he gathered all the corpses and incinerated all of them. As such, the opponent would be unable to judge who the culprit was, and there would be no hints of evidence.
Zhan Wushuang’s arrangements were perfect. The army that was sent by General Yun Ru from Mystic Dark City searched the entire area and didn’t have any evidence apart from discovering the underground tunnels.
For a moment, he was unable to determine who the culprit was. After all, the two princes were having internal strife in the kingdom. If this was done by Yun Fei’s younger brother, he wouldn’t dare to interfere.
He had no choice but to scout around with the army while sending an emergency message to the King of Heaven Mystics Kingdom, reporting the situation here. He even sent another message, ordering all countless scouts in the nearby vicinity to scout the entire 10,000 miles perimeters for any clues and to find out who the culprit was.
Once the news made it back to Mystic Heaven City, it caused an uproar in the city. Yun Lu had obtained the support from the Witch God’s Clan, which resulted in many of the other clans who initially didn’t support him, to have a change in decision. The Mystic Heaven City had internally decided for him to be the future crown prince, but he was actually ambushed and killed. There was an 80% possibility that he might be dead.
The Heaven Mystics Kingdom’s King was immediately infuriated and instantly put Yun Fei’s younger brother under house arrest. He then gave the orders to find Yun Lu no matter the cost. If he was alive, the King wanted to see him. If he was dead, the King wanted to see his corpse. He even ordered to investigate the culprit behind the scenes. It didn’t matter who it was, that person had to be found and would be executed.
Countless message secret formations lit up. Countless scouts from the various clans started to move, which included the hidden scouts from the five kingdoms and the Azure Dragon Empire. There was only one objective: to find all the information and find the culprit! Yun Lu brought along 1000 men, and there were two consecrators who knew ancient sorcery. General people certainly wouldn’t be able to kill him.
The news spread throughout the Heaven Mystics Kingdom quickly before it spread to the continent, causing a sensation. Countless individuals had worried expression, wondering if Yun Lu’s incident would give rise to another war.
