“What is that?”


Jiang Yi turned around and stood up at once, looking into the distance. Once again, his divine senses swept his surroundings like a stream of flowing water. Very quickly, he locked in on the Heaven Flame Beasts that the Heaven-Swallowing Beast was referring to.


The lava was surging as countless red dots wriggled around like crocodiles in the lake. Sharp as blades, they shot upwards. One look, and Jiang Yi guessed that there were at least tens of thousands of them. These Heaven Flame Beasts were small—only as big as a fist—and fiery red in color. They looked like they had no real body; instead, they just looked like balls of flames. However, their eyes formed very clear, black, and icy dots in the middle of the flames. Since they could survive in the lava, they must have been produced out of the heaven-and-earth special flames.


Bang! Bang! Bang!


One by one, the Heaven Flame Beasts shot out of the lake. Jiang Yi did not have much time to consider any further. At once, he summoned the Sword Emanations Race beings. At the same time, his zither appeared in his hands. If the Sword Emanations Race beings could not fend off the Heaven Flame Beasts and his zither proved to be useless, he would be in big trouble.


The Sword Emanations Race beings were not living beings but mere puppets. Naturally, they could not feel the high temperatures. Jiang Yi took a glance at the group of them and nodded subtly. The Sword Emanations Race did not combust into flames when they appeared. This meant that they could withstand the high temperatures.


Swish! Swish! Swish!


One by one, the Sword Emanations Race beings charged forward. They released countless thorns into the Lava Pit in the distance as Heaven Flame Beasts continued to emerge out of it. Jiang Yi had only summoned close to twenty thousand Sword Emanations Race beings, but a hundred thousand thorns had already been released.


Yet, what happened next caused Jiang Yi’s heart to sink!


Before the thorns even hit the Heaven Flame Beasts, they melted into liquid. Not only did they fail to attack them, but they also failed to even get close to them. Obviously, these venomous thorns proved to be useless. There was no reason for the Sword Emanations Race beings to continue charging forward anymore.


Clang-clang!


Jiang Yi struck his zither harshly. This zither was not bad; at the very least, it was not melting. The moment Jiang Yi pulled a string of the zither, the sound echoed all around him. The explosive sound of the zither rushed forward like a wave.


It was useful this time, but it was only slightly useful.


A flicker of red light appeared in the Heaven Flame Beasts’ icy-cold eyes. They slowed down a bit, but they were still charging towards Jiang Yi extremely quickly. As the Heaven Flame Beasts came closer, the temperature where Jiang Yi stood kept rising. The zither could not withstand the heat any longer. At once, it combusted into flames. Jiang Yi’s only zither was now destroyed.


Buzz!


The Fire Dragon Sword appeared in Jiang Yi’s hands as he shouted, “Sword Emanations King, fuse!”


Tsk! Tsk!


The Sword Emanations King burst into the sword in a stream of light. Jiang Yi was going to use his final mystical ability now. If it still proved to be ineffective, both he and the little beast would probably die this time.


He stomped down on the rock with a single leg, causing his body to shoot upwards like a dart. There were many Sword Emanations Race beings nearby; he did not want the Heaven Flame Beasts to destroy them. There were not many Sword Emanations Race beings left in his Wintry Pearl, but he did not have time to collect them all anymore.


Buzz!


The four dragon patterns on the Fire Dragon Sword began to move as they flashed a blood red. Their baneful aura congealed into a red cloud, enveloping the hundreds of Heaven Flame Beasts.


“Good!”


Jiang Yi saw the Heaven Flame Beasts’ eyes turn red. Immediately, he halted in midair and spun around in joy. As he danced, he kept releasing the baneful aura from his Fire Dragon Sword, using it to envelop the Heaven Flame Beasts in front of him.


Jiang Yi had guessed correctly: when he was playing the zither earlier, the Heaven Flame Beasts’ eyes flickered red; and they slowed down. This meant that the Divine Sound Laws would be useless against them. The only thing that could really affect them was the baneful aura, and the baneful aura in his Fire Dragon Sword was much more powerful than the ones in his music.


“Big Ferocious, you’re incredible!”


The Heaven-Swallowing Beast sat in a corner and watched as Jiang Yi suppressed the Heaven Flame Beasts from afar. It quickly sent a voice message to him, saying: “Quick, keep holding them down! Soon, I will be able to make them my slaves!”


“Really?”


Jiang Yi rejoiced once again. Even Little Ferocious could not deal with these Heaven Flame Beasts, which were born out of the heaven-and-earth special flames, no less. The Sword Emanations Race beings’ thorns melted once they got near them as well. They must be very ferocious indeed. If they could subdue these beasts, his battle powers would improve greatly.


Tsk! Tsk!


At that moment, his Fire Dragon Sword was emitting the baneful aura at a rapid pace. The Heaven Flame Beasts’ eyes were getting redder by the second as they writhed in midair. Each of them cried out with an ear-piercing wail. The baneful aura must have subdued them completely.


Swish!


The Heaven-Swallowing Beast flew towards him, its golden horn at the top of its head lighting up. Its golden light illuminated the Heaven Flame Beasts in front of it. Slowly, the redness in their eyes disappeared. The violence in them disappeared as well. The little beast sent a voice transmission to Jiang Yi, saying: “Alright, these Heaven Flame Beasts have been overcome. Don’t attack them.”


“Alright!”


Jiang Yi celebrated. He avoided those subdued Heaven Flame Beasts and focused on attacking the ones which were still charging at him. As he did, the Heaven-Swallowing Beast steered the subdued Heaven Flame Beasts to stand behind them.


As expected…


Jiang Yi glanced behind him and found an army of Heaven Flame Beasts, lined up neatly behind him. His heart finally settled down.


Huff-huff…


More and more Heaven Flame Beasts were gathering behind him. The terrifyingly high temperatures were overwhelming the Sword Emanations Race beings. Many Sword Emanations Race beings began to burst into flames. Jiang Yi could not be bothered with them anymore. If the hundred thousand or so Sword Emanations Race beings were going to burn, then so be it.


Five minutes later, calm was restored in the Lava Pit. No more Heaven Flame Beasts were shooting out of the pit. The space behind Jiang Yi was filled up with the beasts. As they stood together, the group looked as dense as the yellow sand worms once did. There were at least three or four hundred thousand of them.


Hoo-Hoo!


Jiang Yi heaved a huge sigh of relief as if a gigantic weight had just been lifted off his chest. Thankfully, the baneful aura in the Fire Dragon Sword could subdue the Heaven Flame Beasts. Otherwise, both he and Little Ferocious would have been torn apart.


From the close distance, Jiang Yi could clearly see that the Heaven Flame Beasts did, in fact, have physical bodies. However, their bodies were set alight with flames, which caused them to look like fireballs instead. These Heaven Flame Beasts’ little mouths were red and contained little teeth. Jiang Yi wondered if he would have been gnawed down to his bones if they had been allowed to surround him.


Jiang Yi paused for a moment and then asked, “Little Ferocious, you couldn’t handle these Heaven Flame Beasts? Apart from flames, do they have other methods of attack? That’s right… they all came from within the heaven-and-earth special flames, right?”


“I don’t know.”


The little beast blinked and sent a voice transmission in reply: “I did not fight them. I just felt in my gut that I could not defeat them. They came from the Lava Pit. I hadn’t even found the heaven-and-earth special flames that you spoke about.”


“Oh, okay.”


Jiang Yi studied the Heaven Flame Beasts for a while, not knowing how powerful their battle skills were. He retrieved his Great Zen Pearl and was just about to kill all the yellow sand worms it contained before storing the Heaven Flame Beasts inside.


“No, wait…”


Jiang Yi pondered for a while and quickly stopped himself. These Heaven Flame Beasts were covered in powerful flames. Would an ordinary spatial divine item be reduced to dust if I store them inside it?


He tried putting a couple of Heaven Flame Beasts inside. Indeed, the pearl burned and emitted green smoke immediately. The space inside was completely destroyed as well. All the yellow sand worms perished due to the spatial distortion that occurred when the Heaven Flame Beasts entered the spatial divine item.


“I can only keep them in the Fire Spirit Pearl!”


Jiang Yi sighed softly. He could put any type of flames inside the Fire Spirit Pearl, and the little beast would be able to survive inside. This meant that the little beast would probably also survive even if he stored the Heaven Flame Beasts in the pearl. The only catch was that there was not much space inside the Fire Spirit Pearl. Jiang Yi guessed that he could only store ten to twenty thousand Heaven Flame Beasts at the most.
