I really became a king.

Chapter 389: The Transformation of the Flying Blood Knife and the New Commander-in-Chief

For several days, Prince Yi's Mansion in Kongtong Mountain had been closed to visitors, claiming to the outside world that their prince was in seclusion for cultivation.

No matter how turbulent and controversial the situation was outside, the people in Prince Yi's Mansion knew that their own prince was truly in seclusion, and had been doing so for several days.

The martial arts arena is a forbidden area for everyone in Prince Yi's Mansion, and the stone house in the martial arts arena is a forbidden area within the forbidden area. No one is allowed to approach it.

So although there was some concern, no one dared to get close. The only exception was the eldest aunt Jiang Ning from Prince Yi's Mansion.

However, she would only approach the stone house from a distance, and after sensing that the atmosphere inside the stone house had stabilized, she would retreat and never set foot in the stone house.

As for Jiang Yi, he has been staying in the Shanshui Martial Realm these days. After being tempered by the soul fire continuously, the broken sword has melted bit by bit and turned into a ball of milky white liquid.

As the broken sword melted, Jiang Yi's expression became more and more solemn, as if he was waiting for a certain moment to come.

On this day, the broken sword was finally completely tempered into a ball of liquid. The strange thing was that the milky liquid had been floating quietly on the lotus soul fire.

Jiang Yi's eyes flashed, and he shouted: "This is the moment I've been waiting for!"

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of streams of light shot out from the milky liquid, as if trying to escape.

However, Jiang Yi had been prepared for this and had even been waiting intently for several days just for this moment. How could he let them escape from his control?

"Haha, come back!"

With a loud laugh, he used the [Mountain Capturing and Mountain Locking Hand], and a huge empty hand swept across the sky, and dozens of streams of light entered his palm.

Then he flicked his other hand and a small lotus soul fire emerged, wrapping up a dozen streams of light, like a fluorescent fluid cocoon.

"Okay! Success!"

Jiang Yi knew that he had succeeded for most of the time. The most difficult thing to deal with from beginning to end was these dozen or so streams of light.

These streams of light were none other than the dozen flying swords in the Broken Sword Box.

If they cannot stop the broken sword at the moment it is completely refined, it will most likely be lost directly.

Originally, these flying swords did not have such great power, but when Jiang Yi used soul fire to refine the broken sword box, he was actually indirectly tempering these flying swords.

While these flying swords were being tempered by the soul fire, they had been absorbing the milky liquid. Their quality must have changed dramatically compared to before.

The power increased greatly. If it was outside, Jiang Yi would not be completely sure that he could control these flying swords quickly, so he chose to refine them in the Shanshui Martial Realm.

Shanshui Wu Realm is his absolute home ground. Even if a dozen flying swords have absorbed the material of broken swords and their power has increased dramatically, they cannot escape from his palm.

After imprisoning more than a dozen flying swords, Jiang Yi moved the lotus soul fire to the black sword box.

Under the refining of the Lotus Soul Fire, the black sword box melted quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye. The reason why it was so fast was that this black sword box was made by him, and the internal casting structure was clear, so it was easy to re-melt and re-forge.

However, it would not be possible to completely refine it into a pure liquid in one go.

Just like boiling a frog in warm water, the little golden man sitting cross-legged in his arms was melted bit by bit.

Jiang Yi was not idle either. He looked at the milky liquid and finally gritted his teeth and made a decision.

He flipped his palm again, and two dark green scimitars appeared behind him. With a slight wave of his hand, the two dark green scimitars as thin as cicada wings flew in front of him, one on the left and one on the right.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Yi stretched out his finger and lightly scratched the air, cutting off a small ball of milky liquid that slid onto the sun and moon wheels.

Then he flicked his finger again, and another refined soul fire rotated out from the main body of the soul fire, wrapping the sun and moon wheels.

Then, his mind changed, and a stream of light came out from between his eyebrows and circled in front of his eyes. It was the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife.

Just like before, his fingers once again cut off a ball of milky liquid and flew it towards the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife. However, before Jiang Yi could activate the soul fire to refine it, the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife had its own spirituality and whizzed past, swallowing up the ball of milky liquid in an instant.

This scene made Jiang Yi stunned. From this point alone, the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife was far ahead of the Sun and Moon Dual Wheels in terms of quality and spirituality.

Letting the golden man activate the soul fire to temper the black sword box and the sun and moon wheels, Jiang Yi focused his attention on the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife. He wanted to know what changes had taken place after absorbing the milky liquid essence of the broken sword.

With a wave of his hand, the blood-transforming flying knife flew to the palm of his hand and hovered gently.

From the outside, no changes could be seen, but Jiang Yi was in tune with it and could feel that there was an extra space inside the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife. In addition, its power had also increased a lot.

"There's an extra Sumeru space? Is it equivalent to a sword box in the shape of a flying sword?"

Jiang Yi was a little disappointed. The Blood-Transforming Flying Knife was his most powerful killing weapon. Jiang Yi had never thought of turning it into a sword case because he already had a black sword case.

Jiang Yi was somewhat unwilling, and with a thought, the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife turned into a stream of light that shuttled through the Shanshui Martial Realm. After flying a circle, it returned to the palm of his hand.

Jiang Yi finally showed a hint of smile on his face, and whispered: "This is good, a little is better than nothing, at least I don't have to pick up the bodies myself."

He also understood the function of the internal space of the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife, which was equivalent to a storage space. Under Jiang Yi's urging, it could automatically pick up items.

That is to say, after killing an enemy with the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife, the spoils on the enemy's body will be automatically collected into the Xumi space inside the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife. It is indeed a good assistant for picking up corpses.

After taking a look at the items being refined, Jiang Yi thought for a while and took out an item from the storage ring.

A blue diamond-shaped crystal, this object appeared in Shanshuiwu territory.

There was a slight commotion throughout the entire mountain and water martial realm; the Black Prison Mountain, the barracks, the Xumi Palace, the Huagai Treasure Tree, and even the Four Seasons Tea Tree next to it were all swaying gently.

Jiang Yi snorted coldly, and the entire Shanshui Martial Realm returned to peace again.

Only Green Flame and Flying Pig stopped not far away with greedy looks on their faces, staring at the blue crystal motionlessly.

The crystal here is the last thing left of the stone treasure. After Jiang Yi absorbed the milky-colored sphere and activated the "Void Horizontal Shift", only this blue crystal was left of the entire stone treasure.

"If this crystal is integrated into the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife, I wonder what changes will occur..."

Originally, according to his intention, this blue crystal was to be kept for use after his strength was enhanced. After all, he didn't know what it was or what it would do, and using it carelessly would probably result in more harm than good.

However, thinking of the upcoming complex crisis in Western Xinjiang, he decided to use it now.

Just like the white sphere that was transformed from the precious stone plate, it was definitely more precious than this crystal, but in order to escape, Jiang Yi still used it.

The benefits after using it were quite good, and it created a foundation for him to stand on.

"Forget it, I won't wait any longer. I'll use it now." After making up his mind, Jiang Yi was about to take action when he suddenly found two annoying objects around him. With a wave of his hand, the green flame and the flying pig rolled and flew out.

Jiang Yi then gently threw the blue crystal towards the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife, but at the last moment he thought of something and made a light slash with the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife, cutting off two small pieces.

Then, without any hesitation, he flicked the two small corners towards the black sword box and the sun and moon wheels that were being refined.

Most of the remaining blue crystals were directly absorbed by the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife. Jiang Yi originally thought that it would take some time to slowly merge and swallow them.

But unexpectedly, the blue crystal was instantly absorbed and integrated by the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife.

"So fast?"

Jiang Yi couldn't quite believe it, because the two small corners of the crystal he had just cut off were still intact under the refining of the soul fire, and had not been refined and fused all at once.

Jiang Yi knew that this should be due to the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife. Its grade was too high and it completed the absorption and fusion in one go.

"This is... a direct change of appearance."

What appeared in Jiang Yi's palm at this moment was a small scimitar as blue as the sea. The blue carried a sense of the vastness and surging sea. At first glance, it was like facing an endless ocean.

Jiang Yi grinned and muttered, "It has changed from colorless and transparent to azure blue. I'm afraid I won't be able to perform sneak attacks as I wish in the future. This blue is too eye-catching."

Previously, the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife was colorless and transparent, and it was very difficult to track it as it flew as fast as lightning. But now it has turned into azure blue, which greatly reduces its ability to launch surprise attacks.

As if sensing Jiang Yi's regret, the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife, which was originally as blue as the sea, suddenly became colorless and transparent again, more crystal clear than before, and seemed to have completely blended into the surrounding air, making it difficult to detect with the naked eye.

"This is good. It will be colorless and transparent when attacking by surprise. When you want to kill the enemy in an open and aboveboard way, it will turn into azure blue. I believe the effect will be even more shocking."

Jiang Yi held the brand new Blood-Transforming Flying Knife in his palm, and after feeling it silently, he suddenly opened his eyes and shouted, "Good!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a stream of azure light shot out from the palm of his hand. When it appeared again, it was already dozens of miles away, and it struck the green flame and flying pig hovering in the mountain and water martial arts realm.

Caught off guard, Lu Yan and Fei Zhu were in a panic, but Jiang Yi did not intend to really attack. After a feint, he retracted the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife from a distance.

Only Green Flame and Flying Pig were left, looking frightened from afar and not daring to approach.

Then they became a little dejected. Before this, they were very proud of their speed and could stay away from danger. But now, in front of the transformed Blood-Transforming Flying Knife, they had nowhere to hide. It was dozens of miles away and came in the blink of an eye. They had almost no time to react.

"Spanning dozens of miles in the sky!"

Jiang Yi looked at the blue scimitar in his palm with great joy. He moved his five fingers slightly, and the blood-transforming flying knife danced on his fingertips like an elf.

"What on earth is that stone plate made of that can allow the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife to have such power!"

In the wild continent, controlling objects through the air is not uncommon, especially in secluded sects. Almost all flying swords and immortal treasures have this function. Even in the secular martial arts that are good at close combat, many strong people have the unusual skill of controlling objects through the air.

But no matter whether it is the strong ones from the secular sects or the secular martial arts, the distance of controlling objects through the air is extremely limited, usually a dozen meters to dozens of meters, and the most top-notch strong ones can only reach the limit of a hundred meters.

Including Jiang Yi before, even with the help of "The Art of Controlling Blood and Drawing Swords", the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife could only kill the enemy from a distance of dozens of meters.

And now, after the transformation of the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife, it can kill enemies from dozens of miles away. This kind of magical power is definitely the best in the Wild Continent.

If it gets out, it will definitely cause an uproar.

"Immortal's method? This is the real immortal's method!"

Jiang Yi stroked the Blood-Transforming Flying Knife in his palm with joy, feeling a little regretful.

This distance of just a few dozen miles is really nothing compared to the stone plate treasure that can cross tens of thousands of kilometers in the void.

But unfortunately, most of the essence of the stone plate was used by Jiang Yi for that "Crossing the Void", otherwise its power would have been even more terrifying.

"Time is running out, so let's finish the refining as soon as possible..."

In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed.

As the half-month period approaches, the entire XJ Demon Realm is becoming more and more turbulent.

However, on the surface, it was completely silent, especially at Prince Yi's Mansion in Kongtong Mountain. The gates were tightly closed, almost cutting off all contact with the outside world.

Including the three brothers Jiang Zhongchi, who have always been active in the Yanei circle, they have completely disappeared. Just like Prince Yi's Palace, the gates are closed, and except for daily food purchases, no one is seen coming in or out.

As for the two prefectures, three camps and eight departments, the camp gates were all closed. Apart from the daily change of guard at the Demon Realm Pass, no other movement was heard.

In recent days, even the daily rotation of guards has been cancelled, and it is so quiet inside that it seems like an empty camp.

Amid this unusual calm, all kinds of rumors began to spread among the people.

For example, Prince Yi Jiang Yi has abandoned the pass and left. As to where he went, there are different opinions. Some say that he went west through the Demon Realm Pass and hid in the prairie under a false name.

Some said that he left from the East Demon Realm Pass, went north along the Demon Realm Mountains, and went to seek refuge with Princess Duan. After all, he still had the status of a family, which could provide him with protection.

There is another saying that Prince Yi Jiang Yi knew that he could not resist the various forces in the imperial capital of Dali and the secular sects, so he expressed his submission by staying indoors.

After the sect was established and 300,000 troops arrived, they took the initiative to hand over the military and political power of the Western Frontier... and so on. Various statements circulated throughout the Demon Realm.

In a new town at the foot of Kongtong Mountain, inside a newly built restaurant, a group of people were toasting each other, their faces flushed with drink.

"Brother Liu, we are at the foot of Kongtong Mountain, and the camp gates are closed. You are drinking wine openly here. Aren't you afraid that your prince will chop off your head?"

A nobleman said with a grin, one hand dishonestly reaching into the woman's arms and kneading her. A group of noblemen around him also did the same, and they echoed his words.

"Yes, Brother Liu, you really don't take Prince Yi seriously enough..."

"Haha, not only did you leave the barracks without permission, but you also drank wine and sang a different tune right under Prince Yi's nose. Aren't you going to let your prince blame you?"

Liu Siluan curled his lips in disdain and said, "In a few days, the new commander-in-chief of the Demon Realm Pass will arrive, and the sect mansion will also be established. I'm afraid his position as a prince will end..."

After the initial tests, Liu Siluan had completely let go of his mind, especially after receiving the imperial decree from Queen Dali two days ago, he began to swell rapidly.

A few days ago, an imperial decree with the seal of the Dali Imperial Capital came from the Dali Imperial Capital, appointing Liu Siluan as the commander-in-chief of the Western Demon Realm Pass, and controlling the Western Demon Realm Pass. The 300,000 troops coming from the Dali Imperial Capital will stay at the Eastern Demon Realm Pass.

The two generals, one from the east and one from the west, are stationed at the East and West Demon Realm Passes respectively, and there is a tendency to sideline Prince Yi Jiang Yi.
