Chapter 660: Xiaonu, Come Back!
Jiang Yi didnt know something.
There were actually two methods to obtain thunder stones in the Sky Thunder Ind. The first option was to wait for a thunder stone eruption in the nearby vicinity of thunder mountains. The second was to dig for thunder stones at the thunder ridges.
In normal situations, everyone would normally travel the main path towards the thunder mountains and wait for the thunder stone eruption before snatching for it as this ce was the safest. There would be a spike in temperature when the Thunder Fire was about to spur out from the mountains, allowing everyone to back away in advance. Furthermore, these ten thunder mountains were separately upied by the ten chiefs, which wouldnt cause any conflicts or disputes.
There were ten chiefs in the city because there were ten thunder mountains. If someone wanted to be the 11th chief, they had to take out one of the chiefs and seize their thunder mountain in order for anyone to pledge their allegiance to them.
The ten chiefs had all secretly agreed that they must not go plunder the thunder stones that erupted from the thunder mountains that didnt belong to them. So when that thunder mountain burst out with thunder stones, the people in the nearby vicinity didnt dare to snatch them.
The ten chiefs also gave an order that the obtaining of the thunder stones were all dependent on ones strength and luck. Before anyone put their hands on the thunder stones, it could be fought for; but no lives must be taken. No one must snatch the thunder stones that were already in others possession, at least not in public. It was up to ones capability to snatch it in the dark!
Of course, there were many that attempted the second method like neers or those there were too weak to obtain any thunder stones. Those people would always take the risk and would ultimately die after entering the thunder ridges.
Thunderbolts from the sky would typically be striking on the ten thunder mountains, but it would asionally strike on the thunder ridges. If it was to strike at the ck rocks within the thunder ridges, it would simrly produce thunder stones.
When thunder stones were produced, there would be Thunder Fire which was extremely horrific. Regr martial artists would never be able to get near Thunder Fire, and it could even eliminate divine senses. Those that were familiar with the Thunder Fire would avoid the thunder ridges at all cost. Normally, an individual would only take the risk and enter the thunder ridges unless they were absolutely desperate.
Jiang Yi didnt know about all these things, but he knew that he had found thunder stones, and that was enough!
He withdrew his Divine Perception and ran towards the depths of the thunder ridges. He wanted to collect enough thunder stones for that they could live peacefully in the city and serve the one-year period in safety.
His body flew with lightning speed as he looked around and search for the ces with Thunder Fire!
Jiang Yi had the Fire Spirit Pearl and wasnt afraid of high temperatures. He willfully traveled through the thunder ridges, and as long as he didnt make contact with the Thunder Fire that spurted out from below. This ce was just like his backyard.
If the martial artists in the city had known that Jiang Yi was flying through the thunder ridges so easily, it would definitely shock all of them. The thunder ridges were huge, and after so many years, it had produced plenty of thunder stones. No one had tried to dig for the thunder stones in these ces, and Jiang Yi could find them easily. It would definitely cause all the martial artists in the city to be jealous and envious!
Two hours, four hours eight hours!
Jiang Yi was shuttling around the thunder ridges like a monkey, and he had obtained at least 800 thunder stones within eight hours. The group had to submit nine thunder stones every day, which would mean 90 thunder stones every ten days. Right now, he had over 800 thunder stones which couldst him for almost 100 days, which is over three months.
This should be enough, right?
When Jiang Yi looked at the sky, it was almost nightfall; and he remembered that everyone would enter the city at dusk as no one else would return during the nighttime. There were no thunderbolts during the nighttime so there shouldnt be any thunder stones eruption, which was why everyone returned to the city. It was best to be cautious. Since he already had more than 800 thunder stones, it was enough for them tost for a few months.
Jiang Yi rushed towards Sky Thunder City. He had entered the Union of Heaven and Earth state and blended with heaven and earth. He was neither fast nor slow, and if there was anymotion, he would be the first to know. He had already been ambushed by four Heaven Monarch experts in the morning; hence, he was naturally a little more cautious.
As he traveled, it was very peaceful. One hourter, he was 30 miles away from the city gates, and if he wasnt closing his eyes, he should be able to see the giant Sky Thunder City from a distance.
Right at this moment
He suddenly stopped as he noticed something different at the front. There were a few faintly discernible breathing sounds from the front. The sound was very slight, but Jiang Yi was in the Union of Heaven and Earth state, making him very sensitive to the surroundings. He could detect even a minute difference.
One mile ahead, in a cavity of a small mountain, there are four individuals! It seems like it is those four Heaven Monarchs.
Jiang Yis mind thought very quickly as he silently backed away. He circled the area and found a ce with Thunder Fire. He stood on the peak of a small mountain and opened his eyes while his brows knitted tightly.
The four individuals were in a very ingenious ambush spot. This ce was very close to the city, and those that want to enter the city would have to go through them. Jiang Yi could actually constantly instant-shift into the city, but his speed was too slow. They would probably catch up to him before he reached the city gates.
Kill these four people!
Finally, Jiang Yi made a decision as he had an unmatched advantage. The opposition didnt know that he had four Heaven Monarchs here. If he was to instantly release Jiang Xiaonu, Feng Luan, and the Golden Flood Dragon out, they would definitely be able to catch them unprepared. If the four of them attacked two individuals at the same timeeven if they couldnt kill them, they would be able to severely injure them!
These four individuals had pursued after him twice, and he had some understanding of their offensive power. They werent considered too powerful, but there was only one thing they should be fearful of. It was that shuttle-shaped treasure that the most powerful Heaven Monarch had, which should be a transcending saint artifact.
If the four of them were to work together and kill him first, the three others would be sitting ducks. After all, Feng Luans darkness dao pattern was a group attack, and once the three of them were enveloped in the darkness dao pattern, they would be unable to escape.
Right now, the opposition was still hidden in there, and they didnt know that Jiang Yi had detected them in advance with the Union of Heaven and Earth. Those four individuals didnt dare to recklessly extend out their divine senses. Moreover, there was a bundle of Thunder Fire here.
Scheming against the unprepared!
If the four of them were to work together in a sneak attack, their odds of sess would reach up to 80%!
After Jiang Yi decided on a n, he immediately took out his Thearch Pce and transmitted a message to Feng Luan, the Golden Flood Dragon, and Jiang Xiaonu. The three of them had been constantly concerned about Jiang Yi, and they were immediately delighted to hear his transmitted voice.
Jiang Yi had exined the situation to the three of them, and after some discussion, his Fire Dragon Sword silently appeared in his hand while he entered the Union of Heaven and Earth state again. He then slowly flew towards the front.
Five miles, three miles one mile!
The four Heaven Monarchs were still hidden within the soil of the mountain, and Jiang Yi pretended that he didnt spot them. He turned his head left and right like a wretched thief. He didnt even extend out his divine senses; neither did the people below. It felt as though both parties had yet to detect each other.
A thousand meters!
Three hundred meters!
Bang!
The soil and rocks below suddenly exploded as four figures rushed into the sky like violent dragons. A shuttle that was glowing with cold light shot towards Jiang Yi with a speed that was twice as fast as them. Right at this moment, Jiang Yi vanished.
Uh
The four of them blinked their eyes with disbelief. They had all assumed that they would be able to instantly kill Jiang Yi at such a close distance, they totally didnt expect for Jiang Yis reaction to be this fast.
The four of them looked towards the west at the same time as they assumed that Jiang Yi would try to escape towards the Sky Thunder City. After taking a nce, they didnt discover Jiang Yis figure?
Everyones mind had a sh of doubt again when they suddenly heard a soft air-piercing sound from the bottom, which alerted the four of them. Four pairs of eyes swept down and just happened to see Jiang Yis figure reappearing below them.
Buzz!
At almost the same time, Jiang Yis Thearch Pce lit up; and three figures appeared in mid-air. Feng Luans hands brandished with lightning speed as a ck aura gathered towards her and instantly covered the sky.
Swish!
Jiang Xiaonu had already transformed within the Thearch Pce, and her aura presence was the most terrifying. The four individuals hearts palpitated when those lush green eyes looked at them while the pair of phoenix ws were glowing with green light and had the presence of death. Jiang Xiaonu immediately rushed forward once she appeared outside of the Thearch Pce. Before everyone had been shrouded by the darkness, her giant ws had already shed at the Heaven Monarch named Fei Guo.
Xiaonu,e back!
Jiang Yi was greatly rmed. He had transmitted a message to Jiang Xiaonu earlier for her to act ording to the situation. He asked her to wait for them to attack for one round and look for opportunities to attack afterward. However, he didnt expect that just as his Fire Dragon Sword lit up, Jiang Xiaonu had already burst through the air.
