Chapter 1024: God Spirit

“You don’t know how scary that Ice Beast King was. After escaping, I discovered that many sects had gathered huge armies to go and defeat it. I heard that many huge sects’ clan heads went to fight as well. I don’t know what was so special about that Ice Beast. Why were so many people going after it?”

Jiang Yi remained within the castle, lying back on his bed like an old master. Mo Yao’er sat beside him, peeling spirit fruits for him and trying to please him by serving him. After hearing Jiang Yi’s confusion, Mo Yao’er smiled and explained: “Mo Xing, this Ice Beast is extremely precious. I told you before that the Ice Beasts all have a core. The core has crazy amounts of ice powers that are comparable to the powers of the stars. They’re extremely useful! However, ordinary ice beasts’ cores have very little of such powers. Even if you collect many of them, you might not get much in total.

“The Ice Beast King is different!”

Mo Yao’er sat upright and said in a low voice, “The Ice Beast King’s core not only contains huge amounts of ice powers—comparable to hundreds of thousands of ice beasts, but the powers in its core are also a full-grade higher than those of ordinary beasts’. That is why so many clan heads appeared the moment the Ice Beast King was spotted. Whoever could capture the Ice Beast King’s core and refine it would undoubtedly see a marked improvement in their own skills! According to the stories… the Ice Beast King’s ice powers can help Heaven Monarch martial artists solidify their spirits.”

“Spirits? What’s a spirit?”

This was the first time Jiang Yi was hearing something like that. He immediately became curious. The secret elder he met at the lake on the north side of the Buddha Mountain had said that once he broke through and became a Demigod, he would tell Jiang Yi many secrets. Jiang Yi wanted so badly to become a Demigod. He wanted to become the strongest being in the world.

“You don’t even know about spirits?”

Mo Yao’er rolled her eyes at Jiang Yi. However, thinking of Jiang Yi’s past and personality, she seemed to think that it made sense that he did not know these things. She began to explain: “Demigods are different from Heaven Monarchs. If one wants to become a Demigod, he would first have to realize three dao patterns three-star and above. Second, he would have to have formidable essence force. Lastly, he would have to solidify his spirit. Only upon solidifying one’s spirit can a martial artist become a true Demigod. The spirit is a god’s soul. Without souls, people are as good as dead. Similarly, Demigods without the proper god spirits are not considered true Demigods.”

“Oh, oh!”

Jiang Yi kept nodding as he sat upright. “Alright, keep going.”

Seeing that she had pleased Jiang Yi, Mo Yao’er grinned widely and continued, “God spirits are the highest level that martial artists’ souls can achieve. With a god spirit, your reaction time and your skills would reach frightening levels. A lot of times, before Heaven Monarchs even move, Demigods would be able to sense their movement and defend beforehand. Attacks from ordinary martial artists are, needless to say, even easier for Demigods to fend against. What’s more… strong Demigods can even find ways to attack the souls of their enemies. No matter how many five-star martial artists there are, they would all die in the face of a true god spirit.”

“Of course, it is terribly easy for Demigods to kill Heaven Monarchs as well. Normally, they would not activate their god spirits, too. After all, that is their life. If any damage is caused to their souls, they would be in big trouble. In any case, god spirits are super important. You would have to get one to understand this. Mo Xing, train hard. You’re still young—you definitely will have an opportunity to become a Demigod.”

Jiang Yi smiled bitterly. “What’s the point of training hard? I don’t have the Ice Beast King’s core; neither will I be able to gather a god spirit to become a Demigod.”

“Mo Xing, don’t be too anxious!”

Mo Yao’er patted her chest and said, “When you get to the peak stage of Heaven Monarch, I will definitely ask Majesty Father to think of ways for you to get an Ice Beast King or Ice Imp King. What’s more, if you’re lucky, maybe you would be able to kill one for yourself?”

“That’s true!”

Jiang Yi had been waiting for Mo Yao’er to say something like that. In a serious tone, he asked, “Sacred Lady, do you know how to refine cores? If I’m really that lucky to meet an Ice Beast King and kill it, what should I do?”

“Pff!”

Mo Yao’er burst out laughing, but Jiang Yi frowned. His expression hardened. Mo Yao’er immediately stopped laughing and said, “Alright, alright. Don’t be angry, Mo Xing. If you really are lucky enough to obtain the core of an Ice Beast King, you should not mess around with it. Its ice power is very aggressive. If you don’t refine it correctly, your body might get destroyed by its power. Without a fire-elemental spirit herb to control the system, nobody can dream of refining the Ice Beast King’s core! He would die for sure!”

What a close shave!

Jiang Yi let out a huge sigh and celebrated quietly in his heart. Thankfully, he did not rush to refine the Ice Beast King’s core. Otherwise, he could have been an ice cube by now, gone to meet Jiang Bieli in the underworld.

“A fire-elemental spirit herb?”

Jiang Yi’s eyes brightened. He asked, “Any kind of fire-elemental spirit herbs would work? Do you have any fire-elemental spirit herbs then? Give me one or two to carry around with me in case I really do get to kill an Ice Beast King in the future.”

Giggle!

Mo Yao’er laughed aloud once again. Her shoulders shook with laughter as she clapped her hands together. “Alright, Mister. Stop dreaming! The Ice Beast Kings and Ice Imp Kings are extremely rare creatures. If you’re lucky, one would appear every few years. If you’re not, you might find one only after tens of years. You won’t find one for sure. Let’s not talk about this… even if you do meet one, you would probably not be able to tackle it on your own. An Ice Beast King would likely require thousands of martial artists to fight, or at least someone like Majesty Father.”

“En?”

Jiang Yi frowned once again as his expression darkened. He raised his hand and slapped Mo Yao’er across the arm. Aggressively, he shouted, “Alright, you freaking dare to look down on me? Do you think I couldn’t strip you naked and punish you?”

“Ah, ya, ya!”

Mo Yao’er’s arm stung as if she had been struck by a bolt of lightning. Upon hearing Jiang Yi’s threat, her face flushed red with shame. This time, however, she did not escape. Instead, she lowered her head and said in a voice loud enough for only mosquitoes to hear, “Chief, I’m in the wrong. As long… As long as you don’t ruin my chastity, I will let you do whatever you want.”

“Little hussy!”

Jiang Yi reached out and stroked Mo Yao’er on the hips before grabbing her chin and lifting her face up. In an aggressive voice, he said, “Would you still dare to mock me? I’ll ask you again: do you have any fire-elemental spirit herbs? If you don’t, I’m going to punish you.”

Mo Yao’er did not give a hoot about what Jiang Yi was saying. She thought that Jiang Yi was just finding an excuse to do whatever he wanted with her. Shyly, she refused and said, “Chief, let your slave go. Majesty Father has these things, but I have no use for them whatsoever. I really don’t have them…”

“Slave. If I don’t punish you according to the rules, I don’t think you will tell the truth.”

Jiang Yi was getting quite into character. He reached out and pulled Mo Yao’er’s belt off her robes and then pulled her robe over her shoulders. Her translucent black undergarments were revealed. He continued growling, “I’m going to ask again—do you have them?”

“I don’t!” Mo Yao’er said through gritted teeth. She was both excited and nervous. Her panting caused her chest to rise and fall very quickly. Jiang Yi’s eyes were nearly crossed from the sight in front of him.

Ss, ss…

Jiang Yi had killed so many people back on Ice Mountain. There was still a lot of anger left inside his body. His eyes turned red. He reached out and ripped Mo Yao’er’s undergarment off of her body, exposing her two perky breasts which bounced from the impact.

Gulp! Gulp!

Mo Yao’er jumped back from the shock. She looked at Jiang Yi’s beast-like eyes and sensed his arousal from the way he was breathing. She knew that she could not afford to play this game any longer, or Jiang Yi would really snatch her for himself. There would be no way she would be able to salvage her chastity then.

“Ah, ya, ya, Mo Xing, don’t do anything funny; or my Majesty Father will punish you!”

Mo Yao’er quickly put her robes back on to cover her body and then ran out of Jiang Yi’s castle like a frightened rabbit.

Jiang Yi sat still for a long time. After Mo Yao’er left the castle, he took two deep breaths to calm himself down. Had he not held himself back earlier, Mo Yao’er might really have turned into a grown woman right there and then.

“A fire-elemental spirit herb?”

He sat down to slow his heart rate, but his eyes brightened. He recalled something. He seemed to have gathered several spirit herbs back at the Lava Lake in the Purgatory Ruin. If these spirit herbs were in the Lava Lake, they should be fire-elemental, right?
