Chapter 1328: You are a Retard
The Fire Lake was very big because a volcano stood nearby. The constant volcano eruptions and spewing of fire from underground led to an overflow of lava on an otherwise empty plain. Slowly, the entire place became a lake of lava.
The few cities near the Fire Lake were all very famous because this place was exceptionally dangerous. Heaven Gods would surely die if they came to such a place. Even ordinary God Generals dared not come near. However, God Kings would often come to the Fire Lake to kill Chaos Beasts and obtain divine roots and battle merits.
Since fire spewed from everywhere, fire-elemental Chaos Beasts were very common in this area. Every one or two years, Chaos Beasts would be thrown out from underground by the underground fire. That ensured a never-ending supply of beasts in this area.
However, Chaos Beasts were not the only ones that posed danger. The flames that spewed out from underground were very dangerous as well. The flames in this region were very strange. Take Jiang Yi’s extremely cold flames, the Void Cold Fire, for example. That in itself was a mysterious existence.
At that moment, a group of people was rushing toward the Fire Lake. Jiang Yi led the entire group. Once he saw the entire patch of red, he became overjoyed. He had arrived at the Fire Lake at last! Here, he had a much better chance of survival.
Swish!
Behind him, the Divine Boat tore through the sky. Its speed was extremely great. The distance between the boat and Jiang Yi was closing rapidly.
Countless divine senses locked in on Jiang Yi. Luo Ting’s eyes were filled with killing intent, and his mouth was twisted up in a mocking smile. He locked his gaze on Jiang Yi, who was still sprinting below. Suddenly, he shouted out, “Bastard! Keep running! The Fire Lake is up ahead. There are at least twenty Chaos Beasts inside the volcano and lake. If you’re not afraid to die, keep running. You’ll be eaten alive by these Chaos Beasts for sure. Come back with me obediently, and you might still have a chance of survival.”
Jiang Yi no longer saw any purpose in pretending any longer at that moment. He had already reverted to his true form. He turned around, looked at the Divine Boat, and then smiled coolly. “You’re Luo Ting, right? You want me to surrender? Dream on. Your younger brother, Luo Huan, was a pushover. You are a retard yourself. You dare to come after Jiang Yi, and you will surely pay the price!”
“Hahaha, crazy! Carry on with this madness! I’ll watch how you die!”
Luo Ting laughed mirthlessly. There were only thirty kilometers between them now, but Uncle Lu showed no signs of attacking. Luo Ting had no choice but to move closer to Jiang Yi on the Divine Boat. Once there were only a few kilometers left between them, he would be able to get the twenty or so God Generals to act on his behalf.
Everyone knew full well how strong Jiang Yi was. He was only a Heaven God. If not for the China Root Elixir, he would be no different from an ant. If ten God Generals attacked him at once, he would be taken down easily.
Fifteen kilometers, nine kilometers… six kilometers!
Jiang Yi was already by the Fire Lake now. The hot lava was surging inside the lake, and waves of lava threatened to crash over him. The lake kept emitting green smoke. From afar, he saw balls of black flames spewing out of the ground. The flames lingered in the air for a few seconds before dissipating.
The Divine Boat had strong restrictions on it that could keep the heat waves out, but the temperature around the Divine Boat still caused the pressure inside to rise. If it were not God Generals seated in the Divine Boat but Heaven Gods, no one would dare to step out of the boat.
“Get ready!”
Luo Ting waved his hand. Apart from Uncle Lu and one peak-stage God General, the other men all stood by the gate. Luo Ting had already made himself very clear. Once they got out, they were to attack Jiang Yi immediately. It would be even better if they could gravely injure Jiang Yi, even if they could not kill him on the spot.
“Everyone, be careful. If anything goes wrong, come back and protect the Young Clan Head immediately. We will retreat!”
Uncle Lu suddenly gave instructions. His expression was extremely somber. He felt no excitement at all in having to kill Jiang Yi. His gut told him that something was amiss. Many strange things had happened today.
How could Jiang Yi travel so quickly while being exposed to such high temperatures? What’s more, he was not even perspiring. Even though he knew that there were many Chaos Beasts in the Fire Lake, he just kept sprinting towards it non-stop.
There were too many strange things going on, causing Uncle Lu to feel uneasy. However, under Jiang Yi’s gaze, he could not turn away and let everything go. Luo Ting would not agree to it. Thus, Uncle Lu had no choice but to remain extremely cautious. He remained ever-ready for things to take a turn for the worst.
“Open the gate!”
Luo Ting could not be bothered to think too much. Once only three kilometers remained between him and Jiang Yi, he gave orders for the restrictions around the Divine Boat to be released. A wave of heat entered the Divine Boat, causing everyone to feel like they were running a high fever. Their heavenly powers felt messed up, and beads of perspiration covered their bodies.
Hoo-hoo!
Fifteen God Generals kept panting as their heavenly powers stirred within them. They withstood the discomfort and rushed out. The battle armors around their bodies were glowing, and they held all kinds of weapons in their hands. They locked in on Jiang Yi and were prepared to attack.
However… even before they could attack him, their eyes widened in shock. They used their heavenly powers to spread out in all directions.
“Hahahaha!”
The moment the gates of the Divine Boat opened, Jiang Yi laughed maniacally. His laughter was obviously being amplified by his heavenly powers. The sound of his laughter echoed throughout the sky. His ring flashed, and two Thunderbolt Rocks appeared in his hands. He immediately threw the Thunderbolt Rock in his left hand toward the Divine Boat and the other in his right hand toward the Fire Lake in front of him.
Jiang Yi’s timing was completely accurate. Once the fifteen God Generals saw the Thunderbolt Rock flying toward them, they instinctively got out of the way. The Thunderbolt Rock may not have been able to kill them all, but the temperatures here were too high. The Thunderbolt Rock was also covered in Yellow Scorpion Powder. The flames alone could burn them all alive.
Boom! Boom!
There were two huge explosions. The Thunderbolt Rock in front caused huge waves to rise in the lava lake. Lava shot upwards toward the sky. The impact caused the mountains and volcano nearby to shake. The echoes from the explosive sounds remained in the air for a long time.
“Sh*t, this brat has lured all the Chaos Beasts out!”
Uncle Lu’s expression changed. He shouted in rage, “All of you, come back here! Bring the Young Clan Head away!”
Swish!
Uncle Lu flew out of the Divine Boat. He could not stand by and watch any longer. His divine senses had already detected that there were at least ten Chaos Beasts in the Fire Lake and the volcano, which had been shaken by the explosion. If he did not act now, more than half of these God Generals would die. Jiang Yi may get away as well. Thus, he decided to stop these Chaos Beasts by himself and get Luo Ting out.
He was also prepared to kill Jiang Yi himself. He was a high and mighty God King after all. Now, he was being made a fool of by this ant. Although he had not done anything much so far, he could not withstand it any longer. He needed to kill Jiang Yi to release the anger that he felt inside.
Tsk! Tsk!
A battle sword appeared in his hand, but he did not activate his strongest nomological mystical abilities. He only activated his heavenly powers and caused the battle sword to grow in his hands. In a blink of an eye, it grew to about three kilometers long. Uncle Lu’s body was already quite big, but at that moment—compared to the battle sword, he looked terribly small. It was incredibly odd. Uncle Lu waved the battle sword and struck Jiang Yi hard.
“Damn it…”
Jiang Yi turned around and felt shock through his soul spirit. The battle sword looked indestructible to him. His medial-grade battle armor would not be able to withstand the impact for sure. This must be a superior-grade divine weapon.
The battle sword was moving way too fast. He only saw a flash. At that moment, Jiang Yi felt like he had been locked in on by the battle sword. No matter which direction he tried to run, the battle sword would surely strike him. In the face of this danger, the cogs in his mind turned rapidly. At last, he came up with a solution that was not quite a solution.
He would fight it!
The ninth star sphere in his body kept flashing. Balls of Merged Flames appeared in his hands, and he quickly congealed a divine shield from the flames. At last, he summoned his Fire Dragon Sword to defend his back!
The Netherworld General said the Fire Dragon Sword was also a superior-grade divine weapon. Jiang Yi placed all his hopes on the Fire Dragon Sword. If this sword broke, he would die for sure.
