Time ticked by while Jiang Yi had been closing his eyes and standing on the desert which was several miles behind the thunder mountains. Thunder Fire would float over from time to time, which he would evade and find another safer place to continue standing there and doing nothing.
Two hours, four hours… ten hours!
He was still in the Union of Heaven and Man state. The eastern sky revealed a trace of dawn as the sun broke out, but he was still standing there.
Gradually, the Thunder Fire started to disperse, and many of it scuttled back into the thunder mountains—like lotus lanterns which vanished after crashing into the mountains. The number of Thunder Fire decreased, and there were more places where thunder stones could be collected, but Jiang Yi still had yet to awaken.
Swish!


Right at this moment, there were sounds of air being pierced that came from the direction of Sky Thunder City. Powerful aura presences permeated over, but Jiang Yi still stood there silently and motionlessly.
Swish!
Fifty figures burst through the sky, which were fifty Heaven Monarchs. The fifty Heaven Monarchs split into groups of five and rushed over with lightning speed and headed straight for the foot of the thunder mountains. Their burning eyes were locked onto the thunder stones at the bottom.
Swish!
The fifty of them flew over and respectively swept up the thunder stones like an autumn wind before they flashed to the nearby vicinity of the thunder mountains to collect the thunder stones.

Eh…

One of them detoured around the thunder mountains and suddenly saw a small figure in the distance. His eyes contracted as he extended his divine senses and got a shock. He yelled out,
It is Lone Wolf! He… he is actually still alive?


What?

All the eyes looked over in the same direction while their divine senses all shot out recklessly. Everyone had disbelief on their faces as Jiang Yi was completely unscathed after staying an entire night outside. He was still alive!

Kill!



The five Heaven Monarchs each under Ba Dao and Chief Long instantly burst with killing aura. Just as they were preparing to fly over to Jiang Yi, Jiang Yi opened up his eyes which were filled with anger.

Goddammit. I was so close to grasping that dao pattern presence. I was so close to comprehending the dao pattern, but these bastards wrecked it!

Jiang Yi cursed with anger while his body flashed with white light and vanished. He appeared within the thunder ridge at the back while his body flew like a violent dragon into the depths of the thunder ridge.
It was extremely difficult to comprehend dao patterns, and Jiang Yi had finally caught a trace of the dao pattern presence and opportunity after spending the entire night. Before he could grasp it completely, this group of people had arrived; and their divine senses had disrupted him.
Swish! Swish!
The ten Heaven Monarchs didn’t bother to collect the thunder stones on the ground and chased after Jiang Yi frenetically. If they were able to kill Jiang Yi, their chiefs would definitely reward them handsomely. This pitiful amount of thunder stones weren’t considered anything.
A pity that they were dozens of miles away from Jiang Yi, and by the time they entered the thunder ridge to chase after Jiang Yi, he had already vanished. They didn’t dare to extend out their divine senses in the thunder ridge.

The temperature here is very high, and there must be a Thunder Fire ahead, but that kid simply dashed in. Could he not be afraid of heat?

One of the Heaven Monarch yelled out with bewilderment while the nine others looked at one another with suspicion. It was already a huge surprise that Jiang Yi was able to survive the entire night, but he was actually running in the thunder ridge without fear?
One of the Heaven Monarch’s eyes lit up as he exclaimed,
That’s right, he must be unafraid of heat and must have a transcending saint artifact that gives immunity to fire. It might even be a pseudo-divine artifact. Otherwise, how was he able to survive in the night when all the Thunder Fire are floating around?



Once this statement was out, everyone’s eyes lit up. There were two Heaven Monarchs who quickly regained their composure and burst back towards the city. Such important information must be reported back to their chiefs immediately and let them make a decision.
There were too many Thunder Fire in the thunder ridge, and the heat was just too high. Everyone searched around the nearby vicinity and after confirming that Jiang Yi had entered the thunder ridge, they had no choice but to return.
The time they returned, all the thunder stones on the ground had been snatched. In the desert from the distance, there was an endless influx of martial artists. They were the martial artists from the Sky Thunder City which came out to fight for thunder stones.
This was the daily event of Sky Thunder Island!
Before the sky had even turned bright, martial artists from various factions would gather at the plaza. They were all led by five Heaven Monarchs to come to the thunder mountains. These weaker martial artists didn’t qualify to collect the thunder stones that erupted during the night. They would only be able to surround the foot of the ten thunder mountains after the 50 Heaven Monarchs had finished collecting all the thunder stones while they had to wait anxiously for the thunder mountains to erupt with thunder stones.
Among these people who numbered more than 10,000, the lucky ones would be able to obtain three to five pieces of thunder stones a day. Those that were unlucky wouldn’t even get a single stone in three to five days. Furthermore, the thunder stones that they collected had to be handed over to the city lord residence or given to the ten chiefs as a tribute after a certain period of time.
Thus…
Basically, all the thunder stones that they obtained belonged to someone else. Most of the time they couldn’t even make ends meet, and finally, they would have to borrow thunder stones from their chiefs. The more they borrowed, the more interest they had to pay. There were many individuals in this place that had been here for several years and couldn’t obtain a single point of merit. Instead, they owed a huge debt to Ba Dao and the other chiefs. As time went by, their debt would grow even heavier.
Ba Dao and the chiefs would be able to sit back and reap what others had sown as they would plunder the wealth of these people ruthlessly. These people, who originally had some artifacts, would all turn them over to Ba Dao and the others as time passed by.
This was Sin Island, the land of sins, a place without laws and morality. Sin Island was a place where the strong ruled supreme and a place where people eat up other people.


…
One hour later, dozens of figure flew over from the main path. There were two groups of people and were led by two experts at the front. Behind them were over a dozen people, and they come with grand style and overbearing presence.

Brother Ba Dao?


Chief Long!

There were over ten thousand people under the thunder mountains. When they saw these two individuals, they quickly got up to bow with respect. Even the subordinates under other chiefs bowed with cupped hands.
The ten chiefs weren’t people that had made it to their status by bluffing. Every one of them killed their way through a sea of corpses and blood. All ten of them had absolute skills, and even if ten ordinary Heaven Monarchs were to surround them, the ten Heaven Monarchs would be the ones that would be killed instead. Furthermore, they would have no way to resist against the chiefs!
Ba Dao and Chief Long had two drastically different appearances. Ba Dao was more than two meters in height and was just like a violent bear. His bursting muscles were contained with explosive strength, and his arms were even thicker than most people’s thighs. Without looking at his aura presence, people would already feel the pressure just by seeing his appearance.
When compared to Ba Dao, Chief Long looked just like a monkey beside a giant bear. He was only 1.6 meters in height and was as skinny as a bamboo pole. He had a goatee and eyes were small and narrow, which made him look very crafty.
Of course, no one present dared to look down on this monkey. Chief Long might not be the strongest in the city, but his methods were the most vicious. All those that fell into his hands would be dead than alive.
Ba Dao and Chief Long didn’t look at everyone as they turned into afterimages and rushed towards the thunder ridge by detouring around the thunder mountains while the people behind them followed behind quickly.


The rest of the people mocked as they looked to the east. Now that Ba Dao and Chief Long had personally gotten involved, would Jiang Yi be able to survive?

All of you stay here and don’t enter. Also, get the people to guard the city gate to death, and don’t let that bastard slip into the city…

Ba Dao and Chief Long each left behind their instructions and rushed into the thunder ridge like afterimages. Their bodies lit up with brilliant golden light as they activated their divine shield and prepared to chase after Jiang Yi.

Hehe, Big Brother Ba Dao has the water-attribute transcending saint artifact, Water Dragon Pearl. The pearl’s water shield might not be able to completely isolate high heat, but with his strength, he should be able to stay in the thunder ridge for at least half a day. That Lone Wolf is dead for sure!
One of Ba Dao’s subordinates spoke with extreme confidence.
One of Chief Long’s subordinates sneered and said,
What is Big Brother Ba Dao again? Chief Long’s boundless essence force and his Wind Divine Armor is enough for him to sustain in the thunder ridge for half a day. I bet 1000 celestial stones that Lone Wolf will certainly be killed by Chief Long…
