Chapter 338: Exit

Pong! Pong! Pong!

On this sea region, there were two figures which were constantly flickering. The weapons in their hands would slash down from time to time, killing the sea demons that surged up from below.

There was a green-robed youth that would toss out a bamboo after traveling over the water for a set distance. When the two of them were falling, they would step on the bamboo to borrow strength and continue flying forward.

Bang!

Just like this, the two of them continued to cross the sea region and killing sea demons. One hour later, the two of them finally reached a small island. Both of them sat on the ground with fatigue and panted with large breaths.

That sea region was the longest that these two had crossed, they had been leaping for one day and two nights. There weren’t any islands along the way, and the two of them didn’t dare to submerge in the water. They had to use the bamboos in Jiang Yi’s Fire Spirit Pearl to step on and traverse.

These bamboos were found by Jiang Yi on a small island two days ago. The entire island’s bamboo had been stripped by him, and their supply was about to be depleted soon.

The two of them sat on the ground and munched on rations while looking at each other’s fatigued expressions. When they saw that the surroundings were nothing but sea region for as far as they could see, they just stared blankly.

No one knew how much bigger could this strange space be? No one knew where was the exit? Without the bamboos, their speed of crossing the sea region would be much slower. Jiang Yi might have enough food and water for them to sustain for years, but if they continued this boring search, the two of them would definitely go crazy after a long period of time.

“Young Master Yi, you should sleep first! I will stay on alert, and I will wake you up later.” After filling up his stomach, He Lao sat cross-legged, gesturing for Jiang Yi to rest first.

Jiang Yi was truly sleepy and didn’t want to argue anymore. He immediately collapsed on the ground and slept. After traveling for several days and nights—coupled with the feeling of being at a loss, it made him very exhausted.

After taking turns to rest for one and a half day, they set off again in the same direction. The two of them didn’t know at which direction the exit was and could only rely on their luck.

“Eh? There is a giant island over there. It has plenty of trees!”

After traveling for half a day, He Lao exclaimed; and Jiang Yi turned over to take a glance and could see a blurry image of a giant island. His exhausted spirit was slightly invigorated. They hastened their speed while he would constantly cleave down with the Fire Dragon Sword to kill the oncoming sea demons.

There were plenty of sea demons in the sea. There were swordfish that had razor-sharp teeth, ball-shape sea demons which had venomous skin, lobsters which had ten-meter-long pincers… fish that could spit ice arrows. They fought against various types of strange sea demons.

After so many days, the two of them only encountered tier-two sea demons; and the strongest would be tier-two peak grade, which had no threat to the two of them. They were rather troublesome because there wasn’t an end to them.

The two of them quickly went to that giant island and scouted everything, making sure there weren’t any formidable demonic beasts on the island. He Lao immediately drew his longsword and began to chop down the trees on the island. If all these trees could be kept in Jiang Yi’s Fire Spirit Pearl, they would have enough to travel the sea region for half a month.

“Wait!”

When Jiang Yi saw how He Lao was chopping a giant tree into segments, he suddenly thought of something and exclaimed, “He Lao, why don’t we build a wooden boat? I can use my Massacre Intent to suppress the sea demons, and you can use your essence force attack to propel the wooden boat. If we do it like that, it will not be so strenuous for us.”

“That’s right! Young Master Yi sure is smart.”

He Lao thought about it and felt that it was possible. He gave Jiang Yi a thumbs-up, but he asked with some doubt, “Young Master Yi. Your Massacre Intent is too horrific, and I cannot even move. How am I going to steer the wooden boat?”

“This is simple!”

Jiang Yi shook his hand and said, “I can restrain my killing aura. These sea demons are all low-tiered. I just need to release a little of the killing aura to suppress them. It will not affect you.”

“That will be great, that will be great!”

He Lao had that worry off his mind. If he was going to be enveloped by Jiang Yi’s tremendous killing aura all day, he might as well travel the hard way. The feeling of being suppressed by Jiang Yi was truly uncomfortable.

The two of them used the giant tree trunks and built plenty of wooden boats and chopped up plenty of trees to store in the Fire Spirit Pearl, just in case.

“Let’s go!”

After storing numerous wooden boats, Jiang Yi picked up one of the boats with a single hand. He threw it on the sea and jumped on it. Once he stood on the boat, he immediately noticed the movements in the seawater as numerous sea demons flocked towards him.

“Hur!”

Jiang Yi quickly released the Massacre Intent. Otherwise, this small boat would be smashed up by the sea demons. With the killing aura out, the sea demons were all immobilized.

He Lao flew over and was instantly delighted when Jiang Yi’s killing aura didn’t have a great impact on him. He raised his hand and released an essence force attack which propelled the small boat forward.

“This is much easier!”

Jiang Yi let out a long breath. Although he had to constantly release the Massacre Intent and for a prolonged period of time, it would make him fatigue and frail; but it was still much more comfortable than before. He Lao felt even more relaxed. For a martial artist like him, releasing essence force attacks was of no difference to executing a palm strike.

Swish!

He Lao quickly grasped the technique and was able to accurately steer the direction of the small boat. He would constantly blast with his palm, causing explosions in the seawater at the back, which would propel the small boat like a sharp sword.

…

“Where could the exit be?”

Another three days had passed, and they didn’t even know how far they have traveled. The surrounding had nothing but the sea—with the occasional large and small islands, but they were unable to discover any exit.

“Could it be under the sea? If it is, then it will be huge trouble!”

He Lao murmured while he was deeply worried. With their current strength, they wouldn’t drown even if they dove for more than a hundred miles into the sea, but the sea region was massive. If they had to search the under the sea, when would they ever find it?

After another day, Jiang Yi was sitting cross-legged with his eyes shut when He Lao suddenly yelled out, “Young Master Yi! There is a giant volcano ahead! Would the exit be within the volcano?”

“Volcano!”

Jiang Yi’s eyes immediately opened up and looked over with lightning speed. There was indeed a volcano that could be seen in the distance. This volcano was obviously an active volcano as it was fuming with thick smoke from the vent of the volcano. The closer they got to it, the stronger the smell of the sulfur and the hotter the air got.

“Earth Fire!”

Jiang Yi was immediately spirited. It didn’t matter if the exit was within the volcano; he had decided to enter the volcano. The Earth Fire in his Fire Spirit Pearl was nearly depleted, and he naturally wouldn’t let got such a great opportunity to obtain large amounts of Earth Fire.

Swish!

It got hotter as they approached the volcano, and the small boat was fuming with green smoke. They had to abandon the small boat. The two leaped off from it and flew towards the volcano.

“He Lao, you stay here. I will enter the volcano and take a look.”

Jiang Yi had the Fire Spirit Pearl and wasn’t fearful of flames. He could see that He Lao was dripping with sweat, and so he asked He Lao to wait at the foot of the volcano. He then rushed towards the vent of the volcano.

Swish!

When one was capable enough, there was nothing to fear. Jiang Yi paused for a moment and jumped straight into the vent of the volcano. He passed through the boiling smoke and looked below.

Bang!

After descending a few hundred meters, Jiang Yi took out the Fire Dragon Sword and thrust it into the wall of the volcano, using it to control his speed of descending. He continued to descend like this and quickly arrived at the lava pit entrance of the volcano.

“Exit!”

Before he dropped into the lava, Jiang Yi’s eyes lit up. He saw a teleportation array at the corner of the lava pit. It was obviously the entrance to the third floor!

“Ku-Ku!”

Right at this moment, something weird happened. The boiling lava quickly surged and formed lava men. They were all emitting strange shouts and rushing at Jiang Yi in a frenzy.

“Ancient sorcery? Stone Puppets? No, this should be Lava Puppets!”

Jiang Yi saw this and was astonished. The Witch God of this forbidden ground was indeed formidable. Even after his death, he still had such powerful restrictions. This exit was within the volcano, and with so many Lava Puppets around, He Lao would probably be unable to rush into the exit, right?

Jiang Yi wasn’t afraid of fire, and so these Lava Puppets were nonexistent to him!

However, he was very worried. If the guardians of the second-floor exit were such a horrific monster, what kind of monsters would be guarding the third floor? How powerful would the monsters on the fourth floor be? Would he and He Lao be able to reach the fifth floor with their current strength and escape alive?
