Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Buzz!

The astral winds were affected as expected. When Yin Ruobing and her female guard’s divine shields were attacked by the astral winds, it flickered with radiance; and Yin Ruobing’s charming face had turned pale. She exclaimed continuously, “Bai Yi, stop! Hurry up and stop!”

Jiang Yi didn’t stop as his hands gesticulated even faster and more violently instead. Countless astral winds were sliding across his body, and Yin Ruobing was extremely shocked because… Jiang Yi’s divine shield had been destroyed effortlessly, but nothing happened to his body.

Furthermore, he was closing his eyes and advancing while he continued to flourish his hands and with increasing speed until he finally arrived in their vicinity. The surrounding astral winds were all shifting towards him due to his flourishing hands, which weakened the attacks on the Yin Ruobing and her female guard’s divine shield. Finally, no astral winds were attacking them.

“This…”

The fragrance on her body had extended out, and she noticed something that startled her. All the astral winds in her surroundings were attracted by Jiang Yi. Those astral winds all converged towards his hands and finally vanished into his hands!

“What’s happening?”

Yin Ruobing’s big eyes were blinking while her fair and charming face had smears of redness. She unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked at Jiang Yi as though she was looking at a monster.

Astral winds had existed since forever. It would appear in the skies of the continent during the night, and they were still there during the daytime as well. However, they would only appear 10,000 miles high up in the sky.

In fact, it could also be understood that the astral winds originated from the skies 10,000 miles above, but they would float down during the night. Hence, it was extremely horrific in the wilderness during the nighttime of the East Imperial Continent; and almost no one would dare to travel during the night.

For the recent hundreds of thousands of years, many of the Nine Thearchs Clans’ members were studying the astral winds; but no one was able to neutralize them. No one was able to understand why would the astral winds appeared in the sky during the night. Of course, there were plenty of experts who comprehended a wind attribute dao pattern when studying the astral winds. The dao pattern gave them the ability to repel the astral winds and allowed them to fly freely in the sky during the night.

However, they were repelling it and not absorbing it!

Jiang Yi was now absorbing the astral winds. The horrific astral winds were able to kill without any signs. Not even regular Demigod Realm experts were able to withstand the astral winds, but Jiang Yi could actually absorb it? How could Yin Ruobing not be shocked? How could she not feel that Jiang Yi was a monster?

“Hehe!”

Jiang Yi opened his eyes at this moment and grinned. “Young Lady Yin, it is fine now! Let’s go, I will bring you two out of the Hall of Astral Winds.”

“Wait!”

Yin Ruobing took two big breaths and suppressed the unease and shock in her heart. She spoke with a voice that was slightly trembling, “Bai Yi, how did you do it? Did you absorb the astral winds?”

“No!”

Jiang Yi frowned and spoke seriously, “I simply destroyed the astral winds. I comprehended a special dao pattern which can gather the astral winds and use special energy to destroy them.”

“Destroy?”

Yin Ruobing didn’t believe it as she had obviously seen those astral winds vanishing into Jiang Yi’s hands. If he had destroyed it, why weren’t there any fluctuations?

Since Jiang Yi explained it like this, she didn’t ask more. She stared blankly at Jiang Yi and spoke solemnly, “I, Yin Ruobing, the Yin Clan’s third generation’s First Young Lady, represents the Yin Clan to officially invite Young Master Bai Yi. If Young Master Bai Yi is willing to join our Yin Clan, I can at least guarantee you a position the consecrator. If Young Master Bai Yi has other requests, you can name it. Everything can be negotiated.”

“Uh…”

Jiang Yi paused his footsteps and took a few glances at Yin Ruobing before smiling. “Young Lady Yin, thank you for your good intentions. I need to consider this matter. Let’s discuss after exiting the Purgatory Ruin.”

Yin Ruobing’s recruitment was very sudden, but it was within his expectations. Just this move of his was enough for all the Nine Thearchs Clans to fight and recruit him.

That’s right!

He had finally comprehended the astral winds earlier. He didn’t comprehend a wind attribute dao pattern; he had completely comprehended the astral winds instead. Just as he mentioned… the astral winds weren’t the winds and were a type of special energy. Everything had been misguided and assumed the astral winds were actually the wind. He had reckoned that no one had ever thought of absorbing the astral winds.

Yes, absorbing!

He had cheated Yin Ruobing. He didn’t destroy the astral winds, had absorbed them, and stored them inside one of his star spheres in his dantian!

If the astral winds were a type of special energy, why could he absorb this energy?

When this thought flashed in Jiang Yi’s mind, he immediately circulated the Nameless Divine Art and absorbed the astral winds like absorbing heaven and earth energy. He didn’t expect it to actually be successful. After he absorbed the astral winds, they were no longer astral winds and were a type of invisible energy which automatically entered his ninth star sphere!

As for…

Why was the Nameless Divine Art able to absorb the astral winds? Why did the astral winds turn into strange energy after entering his body? Why wasn’t this energy stored in the sixth star sphere, but in the ninth star sphere?

Jiang Yi didn’t understand these questions, and he didn’t have the time to go think about it with Yin Ruobing here. There were still six to eight hours before they were going to be teleported out. He decided not to think about it and crossed the Hall of Astral Winds first. He wanted to see if he could find Wu Ni and the others.

He was actually rather excited in his heart. Perhaps, after absorbing the astral winds, it would allow his strength to have a huge breakthrough. Right now, he didn’t have time to study it and would only think about it after exiting the Purgatory Ruin.

In fact!

Jiang Yi didn’t know that he wasn’t the first person to absorb the astral winds. At least, the Divine Silkworms of the Wind Absolute Valley were able to absorb astral winds. Of course, this was something that nobody knew. Back then, Jiang Yi wasn’t able to enter the Union of Heaven and Man state while Yin Ruobing’s fragrance wasn’t able to extend out of the Primal Essence Pagoda. Hence, no one knew that the Jewel Divine Silkworms had emerged and were actually absorbing the energy inside the astral winds.

Yin Ruobing knew that she mustn’t be anxious. She let out a sweet smile and looked at Jiang Yi. “Young Master Bai Yi, you should be able to feel Ruobing’s sincerity. After we exit the Purgatory Ruin, Ruobing will go look for you.”

Jiang Yi nodded and sneered in his heart. After exiting the Purgatory Ruin, he would immediately alter his soul spirit aura presence and his appearance to slip away in the crowd. He naturally couldn’t join the Yin Clan. If his identity was exposed, the Yin Clan would kill him instead of recruiting him. Putting aside the fact that the Yin Clan wouldn’t kill him, he still wouldn’t join any of the clans.

Yin Ruobing patted on the guard by her side, and the latter woke up with dazzled eyes. Jiang Yi didn’t bother about them and closed his eyes to circulate the Nameless Divine Art to constantly absorb the surrounding astral winds. He didn’t care if these astral winds had any problem as he simply wanted to pass through the Hall of Astral Winds before thinking about anything else.

“Uh… Bai Yi?”

The female guard pointed at Jiang Yi with bewilderment, but Yin Ruobing transmitted a message and asked the female guard to not say or ask anything. The duo followed behind Jiang Yi and advanced.

Jiang Yi’s speed was getting faster and faster while all the astral winds in the hall had been attracted over and absorbed by him. He should be seated down and circulating his cultivation art. Otherwise, he might go berserk easily. However, Jiang Yi realized that when the astral winds entered his body, they would be automatically absorbed by the ninth star sphere; and there wasn’t even a need for him to go and guide it. Thus, he continued to walk with ease.

One hour later, Jiang Yi had absorbed tens of thousands of strands of astral winds; and they had reached the end of the hall.

“Young Lady Ruobing, I will make a move first. I will look for you after we exit from the Purgatory Ruin!”

Jiang Yi wanted to hunt down Wu Ni and Ji Tingyu, and so it wouldn’t be good for Yin Ruobing to follow him. He paused for a moment and informed Yin Ruobing before he entered the stone door and vanished from Yin Ruobing and her guard’s vision.

“Young Lady, this…”

The guard finally spoke with bewilderment. Yin Ruobing didn’t enter the stone door as she lowered her head and contemplated. She then spoke after a moment later, “Get a paper and brush to write down about Bai Yi and his portrait. Also, record down his ability to scout a thousand miles, miraculously venturing into the Divine Temple, and also his ability to absorb astral winds. The Yin Clan must recruit this person. This is a generational prodigy, and if he could cultivate and reach the peak stage of the Heaven Monarch Realm and has a good character. This Young Lady can consider marrying him…”

All memories inside the Purgatory Ruin would be wiped out, but as long as it was recorded, Yin Ruobing could use the information to search for Jiang Yi and use all methods to recruit him.

“Marry him?”

The female guard’s body trembled as she spoke with astonishment, “How can you do that, Young Lady? Even if you agree, the clan wouldn’t agree!”

“You are wrong!”

Yin Ruobing’s beautiful eyes flashed as she spoke firmly, “The clan will definitely agree. This person has too many mystical things and might become the next Mystic Thearch. Because… the Mystic Thearch was also able to absorb astral winds back then!”
