Fury Towards The Burning Heaven-Chapter 1711 - Act with Great Caution

"This is the Poison Devil Wasteland?"

Jiang Yi stood on the mummy's shoulder and activated his divine senses to look through the dark mystic realm in front of him. He was beginning to pant as his divine senses scanned the surroundings. For some reason, a chill ran down his spine.

The Poison Devil Wasteland was covered in black and yellow fog. Even sensing this type of fog with his divine senses made Jiang Yi uncomfortable. What's more, he could not seem to look too far past it. Deep in his soul spirit, he felt a life-threatening danger. Without a doubt, this poisonous fog was extremely terrifying. Jiang Yi guessed that he would not even need to get close to it before his physical body and soul spirit would be poisoned.

This poisonous fog was floating around; balls of gas traveled throughout the Poison Devil Wasteland at top speed. They looked almost like phantoms.

On top of that, there were spatial whirlpools all around the Poison Devil Wasteland. There were big ones and small ones—an uncountable number. Jiang Yi aside, even Dao Leng would not dare to come to a place like that under ordinary circ.u.mstances, would he?

Should he enter or not?

Jiang Yi was beginning to hesitate. If he did not capture Dao Ren, perhaps he would not have hesitated. Now, however, he had a trump card. Risking his life seemed less appealing.

"Enter!"

At last, he gritted his teeth and slowly steered the mummy forward. He did not know whether the person he had caught was, in fact, Dao Ren. Although Dao Ren and Dao Leng had stopped He Nongying before, he remained in He Nongying's spatial divine item the entire time. That was why he did not know how Dao Ren looked like and what his status was. He did not dare to take the gamble. If Dao Nù and Dao Leng did not care about this man's fate, he would be in big trouble.

He did not dare to remain on the mummy's shoulder either. The spatial whirlpools were too strong. If he got s.u.c.k.e.d in, he would be dead meat.

It was widely known across the Heaven Domain how terrifying these spatial whirlpools were. Even the smallest among them could trap a Thearch-Ranked martial artist in. Many people had fallen in before and were never to be heard of again. Not one of them made it out alive.

Jiang Yi took note of the whirlpools around him and came up with a map in his mind. Then, he picked out the most suitable way forward.

Swish!

He steered the mummy forward as fast as he could. Previously, when he went to Divine Yang Mystic Realm with the Little Eagle King, they also saw many whirlpools. The Little Eagle King told him that the slower one went around these whirlpools, the easier it would be for them to get s.u.c.k.e.d in. He had to grit his teeth and pass through as quickly as he could; that was the surest way to remain safe.

He eyed a pathway between two spatial whirlpools. The mummy's body lit up with a black glow as it reached top speed and charged in that direction.

Hoo-Hoo!

The mummy moved extremely quickly. In the blink of an eye, it passed through the two spatial whirlpools. Jiang Yi heaved a huge sigh of relief as if a heavy weight had just been lifted off his c.h.e.s.t. If he could make it safely past two whirlpools, he could also make it safely past ten or a hundred. If he could rush past more whirlpools and approach the Poison Devil Wasteland, he would be able to buy himself enough time.

Swish! Swish!

He paused for a while and continued to steer the mummy forward. His divine senses looked around to search for the two whirlpools closest to him. He had to stay as far away as he could from all the whirlpools in order to remain safe.

The mummy's physical body was big and fast enough. The terrifying gravitational pull did not slow it down significantly. That was the only reason Jiang Yi could advance safely. Very quickly, he approached the Poison Devil Wasteland.

The mummy paused in midair for several seconds. Jiang Yi did not dare to advance anymore, because there were too many whirlpools ahead. The distance between each one and the next was too small. Where there were no whirlpools, Jiang Yi could see thick, poisonous fog floating around. He had to search for five full minutes before he found a relatively safe path.

He was prepared to take the risk and advance forward. He had to make a detour to the back of the Poison Devil Wasteland. Then, if Dao Leng and Dao Nù wanted to hunt him down, they would have to take more time to catch up to him.

Swish!

At that moment, he heard the sound of two figures cutting through the air behind him. Then, two sets of powerful divine senses swept past him. Jiang Yi's expression changed. Dao Nù and Dao Leng had indeed arrived much sooner than he expected.

"Jiang Yi!"

An ice-cold roar overflowing with killing intent echoed throughout the void. Dao Nù was furious as he charged towards Jiang Yi. From afar, he shouted, "Jiang Yi, if I don't kill you today, I will cease to be a human!"

"Hahahaha!"

Jiang Yi burst into maniacal laughter. He steered the mummy towards the left and made a detour. Then, he channeled his voice with his heavenly powers and mocked, "Are you Dao Nù? Don't speak too soon. Otherwise, how embarrassing would it be if you fail to kill me?"

Swish!

Both of their combat abilities were extremely powerful, and they had a lot of battle experience. Although places like this were terrifying, both of them had been here many times before. They had tons of practice.

"En?"

Jiang Yi activated his divine senses and looked into the distance. He found that they were taking the exact same path as he did before. Their divine senses just had to sweep the surroundings once before they knew what path to take. They advanced without having to stop for a single second. This made them at least two or three times faster than Jiang Yi's mummy. The distance between them was closing at a rapid speed.

Jiang Yi was already deep in the group of whirlpools. At that moment, he was about fifty kilometers away from Dao Nù and Dao Leng. However, in the blink of an eye, that distance became thirty-five kilometers. That was how fast Dao Nù and Dao Leng were traveling.

"Damn it!"

Jiang Yi cursed under his breath. He thought that the dangers in the environment would slow them down. He thought he would have time to make a detour and delay the fight. However, he did not expect that moving through this environment would be as easy for the two of them as sauntering in their own backyard. There was not a hint of fear.

Two of them quickly closed up the distance between themselves and Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi had no choice but to steer the mummy forward. He still chose to take a detour around the Poison Devil Wasteland, so that he could buy as much time for himself as possible.

Thirty kilometers, twenty-five kilometers, fifteen kilometers… five kilometers!

The distance between them kept closing up. Jiang Yi could already faintly feel the killing intent emitted from their bodies. What's more—after flying another five kilometers forward, he realized that there was nowhere else for him to go.

Most importantly…

Dao Nù and Dao Leng were too close to him. What if both of them attacked him while he tried to fly between the whirlpools? Any impact would cause him to be s.u.c.k.e.d in for sure.

Would he die if he was s.u.c.k.e.d into the whirlpools? Jiang Yi did not know. At the very least… he knew he would not be able to get out again. How different was that from dying?

"Risk it!"

Jiang Yi pondered for six seconds but decided not to sit by and wait for death. He decided to risk it.

He looked for two whirlpools which seemed to be the furthest apart from each other. Then, he steered the mummy towards that space. At the same time, his ring flashed. A burned body appeared in front of him. He got the mummy to hold this other body with its other hand.

There was no need to explain what his motive was: he was trying to tell Dao Nù and Dao Leng that if they dared to do anything rash, both he and the young master would be s.u.c.k.e.d into the spatial whirlpool. He wanted both of them to act with great caution and be wary of the consequences.

"Ren'er?"

Dao Leng's divine senses swept past him twice. At last, he could not hold his own cries in. Initially, he could not tell that it was Dao Ren. The man was so badly burned; even his own mother would have had difficulty recognizing him.

Similarly, Dao Leng did nothing to push Jiang Yi into the spatial whirlpools. On the one hand, he was afraid that Dao Ren would fall in as well. On the other hand, he did not know how he would get hold of that sword if Jiang Yi fell in. The Azure Supreme Thearch had specifically said that he wanted Jiang Yi's sword.
