Qian Wanguan groveled back into the Thearch Palace to cultivate. His body constitution was truly weak, but Jiang Yi handed over some body-strengthening elixirs to Qian Wanguan as well.

Despite the case, it was still an unknown if Qian Wanguan would be able to reach the peak stage of Vajra Realm after he refined all the celestial stones and comprehended the three soul spirit dao pattern shards.

Jiang Yi didn’t bother about him as he knew nothing about refining dao pattern shards. Since Jiang Yi had given Qian Wanguan a rare opportunity, it would be entirely up to his capability and his fate.

Of course, even if Qian Wanguan managed to reach the peak stage of Vajra Realm, his true strength would still be pitifully weak. The refinement of dao pattern shards to increase one’s cultivation realm was a shortcut and not the true path. Even if he could understand the dao patterns, he wouldn’t be able to fully comprehend the quintessence of the dao pattern. Hence, he would be unable to wield its full power.

As for the future, he wouldn’t be able to improve anymore. If Qian Wanguan couldn’t fully comprehend the dao patterns, how could he combine three of the mid-grade dao patterns into a high-grade dao pattern—in order to break through to the Heaven Monarch Realm?

The Heaven Monarch Realm and the Vajra Realm were slightly different. To reach the Vajra Realm, one just had to comprehend three low-grade dao patterns or one mid-grade dao pattern. However, it was extremely difficult to break through to the Heaven Monarch Realm by relying on a high number of dao patterns.

Logically, if one could comprehend three mid-grade dao patterns or one high-grade dao pattern, one would be able to break through to the Heaven Monarch Realm. Shui Youlan had already comprehended four types of mid-grade dao patterns, but she had yet to break through. The Ling Clan’s Patriarch was even worse off. He had secluded himself for a century and comprehended five types of mid-grade dao patterns, but he was still stuck at the final step.

The higher the realm, the larger the number of high-grade dao patterns must be comprehended or fused. Comprehending or fusing a high-grade dao pattern was the sure way to break through. This was also why Heaven Monarch Realm martial artists were much stronger than Vajra Realm experts.

Phoenix Cry Heaven Monarch had comprehended a type of high-grade dao pattern, but she had only comprehended it and not realized it. This was a high-grade soul spirit dao pattern shard that had been passed down for many generations in her clan. It had allowed their descendants to constantly produce a Heaven Monarch expert, which protected the Phoenix Cry Continent.

This was also the reason why Phoenix Cry Thearch could reach the Heaven Monarch Realm when she was just over 20 years of age; Qing Yu was the same as well. This ability to produce dao pattern shards on the Phoenix Cry Continent was a brilliant ability. Had it not been for this ability, the continent would have been wiped out by the Merman Race.

When Jiang Yi refined the Phoenix Cry Thearch’ soul spirit imprint, he was able to familiarize with many of her memories. That was how he knew that she had five pieces of dao pattern shards, which allowed him to blackmail three of them.

“Feng’er... don’t be so petty. Master will compensate you sooner or later.”

Seeing Phoenix Cry Thearch’ expression with a hidden grudge, Jiang Yi felt a little sorry. This Phoenix Cry Thearch was called Feng Luan; Jiang Yi casually gave her the name as Feng’er, which made Feng Luan a little depressed. She might be Jiang Yi’s soul slave and didn’t dare to go against his orders, but she was still the same person and still could have her own thoughts, feelings, desires, and resentment.

She bowed with cupped hands and said, “This subordinate doesn’t dare to!”

Jiang Yi reached out and caressed Feng Luan’s charming face and teased. “Feng’er... don’t regard yourself as an outsider. You shall address yourself as Feng’er in the future.”

When Feng Luan’s charming face was caressed by Jiang Yi, she didn’t dare to put up any resistance and simply replied with a blushed face, “Feng’er understands.”

Hoo-Hoo!

Jiang Yi swept a look at the recuperating Qing Yu and sat on the soft chair by the side. He shrugged his shoulders and beckoned. “Feng’er, come and give me a back massage!”

Feng Luan’s eyes grew even more resentful. She, who was the Thearch of the Phoenix Cry Continent, actually degenerated so much to give a back massage. How miserable was this?

Her heart naturally didn’t dare to refuse as she obediently walked over to Jiang Yi’s side and help to massage his back awkwardly. Jiang Yi simply closed his eyes to rest and enjoyed this envious luck with women that all the men in the world desired for.

After Jiang Yi had been captured, he had suffered great mental pressure. Now that he had a rare chance to relax, he closed his eyes to take a short rest. He suddenly reached out his hand and said, “Feng’er, bring me the map of this place and its surroundings... and the map with the directions to the East Imperial Continent.”

Many Phoenix Cry Continent’s former generations had ventured out of the continent. There were many that had returned along with a map of the nearby vicinity. There were plenty of detailed maps of the other continents.

Feng’er’s ring flashed, and she handed over a thick scroll of maps and handbooks to Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi waved his hand, indicating for Feng Luan to continue her massage while he took a closer look at the maps.

The maps were all very detailed, and Jiang Yi first took a look at the Phoenix Cry Continent’s map. He realized that the Phoenix Cry Continent was more than five folds larger than the Stellarsky Continent. Towards the east and the north were two more continents that were around the same size as Stellarsky Continent, and they were very close by. From Feng Luan’s memories, Jiang Yi got to know that these two continents had always been Phoenix Cry Continent’s vassals.

“East of the Phoenix Cry Continent is the Hidden Dragon Continent, and further east is an even more terrifying Blood Night Fearsome Sea? In the fearsome sea, there are at least 50 demon thearchs? Towards the north of the fearsome sea is the Pegasus Continent? To the east is the Sky Dragon Continent. To the south are three smaller continents...”

Jiang Yi took a casual look, which caused his soul spirit to surge. He had already known that this Stellarsky Domain was huge, but when he just got to know about the outside world, he was extremely shocked. The outside world was vast and borderless. It seemed like the Stellarsky Continent was truly just a small chess piece on the chessboard.

“East Imperial Continent!”

Suddenly, Jiang Yi saw a giant map which indicated the name of the East Imperial Continent. His breath grew erratic as he took a close look at the information on the East Imperial Continent, which caused his soul spirit to shiver even more.

According to the information, the East Imperial Continent was at the center of the Stellarsky Domain and was also the largest continent on the Stellarsky Domain. The surface area was at least a hundred folds larger than Stellarsky Continent!

There were a great number of races on the continent and an overwhelming number of experts. Vajra Realm martial artists could be seen everywhere; they had a myriad of abilities and countless artifacts. There were innumerable treacherous lands, historical sites, and hidden zones. There were also ancient ferocious beasts, species, and incredible demonic beings.

The East Imperial Continent was a paradise and a tomb for the experts!

Experts from various continents would all gather around the East Imperial Continent—be it for travel, to search for a fated encounter to break through, to seek treasures in ancient hidden zones, or to recruit mercenaries for conquest. There were much too many legends in the East Imperial Continent. There were also much too many exceptional prodigies and experts that fell in that place. That place was Stellarsky Domain’s most prosperous and flourishing place.

There was a pitiful amount of information pertaining to the actual situation of the East Imperial Continent. It wasn’t because the Feng Clan’s ancestors didn’t want to collect the information, but they had to return quickly after going to that continent. They had no way to establish themselves, and they were fearful that they might perish on the East Imperial Continent.

“Mother, is the East Imperial Continent truly your homeland? Which part of the continent are you at right now?

Jiang Yi looked at the vast territories on the map and let out a melancholic expression in his eyes. This place was very far away from the East Imperial Continent, and it was unknown if he could reach that place safely. Would he be able to search for Yi Piaopiao even if he went there?

Yu Wen!

That was the only clue that Yi Piaopiao gave to him. What if he couldn’t find that person? Where could Su Ruoxue be right now?

Ruoxue!

When recalling about Su Ruoxue, Jiang Yi felt his heart getting wrung. His eyes flashed with a glow as he turned around to ask Feng Luan in a serious tone, “Feng’er, do you know about the Martial Arts Hall?”

Feng Luan’s eyes flashed with confusion as she blinked her eyes and asked, “Master, what is Martial Arts Hall?”

“En?”

Jiang Yi’s brows lifted. Feng Luan was the ruler of the Phoenix Cry Continent, and she actually didn’t know about the Martial Arts Hall? Didn’t Dugu Qiu say that their Martial Arts Hall were scattered throughout all the continents in the Stellarsky Domain? Could he have tricked Jiang Yi?
