Chapter 978 Genes of the Voidgod

Translator: podao001

Despite having made use of a True law for the earlier attack, Chen Feng failed to gain the upper hand. Instead, the True law was damaged and cracks appeared on the Heaven Piercing Lance. It did, however, stop the attack of the gigantic hand.

“Hurry up and leave this place!” Liu Wuxiang watched as the sky behind them darkened and his face sank.

The palm of the gigantic hand blotted the sun as it once again grasped at Chen Feng and the others. Only, there was a bloody hole at the central part of the gigantic palm. Clearly, that was the result of the earlier clash.

“Teleportation Talisman!”

Chen Feng swiftly brought out several talismans and pasted them onto their bodies. Next, space rippled and they immediately disappeared.

“I forgot about that.”

Shua!

The gigantic hand swept forward right after they disappeared. Catching thin air, it then simply ripped space apart. Due to its actions, Chen Feng and the others were suddenly thrown back out somewhere 5,000 kilometres away. They cut quite the sorry sight.

“Danger!”

They shouted and brought out even more Teleportation Talismans. This time, the gigantic hand did not pursue them and they teleported across a distance of half a million kilometres. Following that, they swiftly flew across another five million plus kilometres before stopping.

“Hah! That was too scary! To think that it was a True Immortal! We nearly died there.” Liu Wuxiang’s face was flushed and he kept gasping for air. The same held true for the others. Every single one of them had been cultivating for a long time, having experienced all kinds of dangers. However, this level of dread and oppressive atmosphere was extremely rare. Thankfully, the other party did not choose to pursue them, otherwise not even fleeing through a distance of 50 million kilometres would help them. This was a True Immortal, after all.

This True Immortal is not in his whole state. He is probably in the same state at the guy from the Demon Plane. Still, I’ve caught a glimpse of a True Immortal’s power now. As Chen Feng had advanced to the next level, he had assumed that he would be able to put up a fight against an incomplete True Immortal. Only now did he realize that he had underestimated the situation.

At that level, it was no longer a contest of strength, but the utilization of laws. In that regards, Chen Feng’s level was still too low.

“Yes. If the other party had chosen to display that strength it showed in the end from the very beginning, we would have died long ago,” said one of the cultivators standing beside Liu Wuxiang, a lingering tone of fear in his voice.

“Brother Liu, are you not going to introduce us?” Chen Feng said smilingly.

“An Hun!”

“Xue Bing!”

“Fu Jia!”

Before Liu Wuxiang could say anything, the other three cultivators had spoken their names.

Liu Wuxiang did not say too much. Instead, he simply said, “These three are my fellow brothers.”

“Are they also members of the Voidgod Clan like you?” Chen Feng said smilingly.

Shua!

Hearing those words, Liu Wuxiang’s eyes immediately shone with a chilling light while the other three instantly surrounded Chen Feng.

“What is this? Is this how you treat your saviour?” Chen Feng scoffed.

“Ha ha ha! Brother Chen, you’re overthinking it. You guys, what do you think you’re doing? Hurry up and thank Brother Chen for saving our lives.” Liu Wuxiang’s face twitched slightly before revealing a smile.

“Our identities cannot be exposed!” Already, killing intent was emerging from Xue Bing’s body.

“Identities? Ha ha ha! What’s so great about the Voidgod Clan? Not to mention, your genes are not even pure,” Chen Feng said coolly, ignoring their show of hostility.

“Xue Bing, do not get so antsy. Brother Chen is someone from the Longevity Clan. I do not think he holds any ill will towards us.” Liu Wuxiang had recollected himself.

When they heard that, the three of them cast curious gazes at Chen Feng. At the same time, they also breathed a secret sigh of relief.

“Brother Chen, you are truly something else. To think that you would be able to figure out our identities. Still, you are correct. Although we do possess the genes of the Voidgod Clan, we can only stay in the Immortal Plane,” Liu Wuxiang said, sighing.

“I will not be a busybody and ask you about your affairs. Besides, I am in the same situation as you fellows. Even though I am a member of the Longevity Clan, I am unable to return to the Celestial Longevity Plane. In that regards, we are similar. What I am curious about is, why did you come to Eternal World?” Chen Feng asked.

“Brother Chen, why ask that which you already know?” Liu Wuxiang’s face took on a highly peculiar expression.

“Are you fellows also here for that?” Chen Feng put on a façade of surprise.

“Yes. Although Eternal World cannot be compared to the Immortal Plane, it is still a very ancient world in this universe. There should be some fortune to be found here. Naturally, after this is done, I also want to team up with Brother Chen to explore the Heavensday Battlefield again.” Liu Wuxiang nodded.

“I see. Brother Liu, I will be frank. At present, Eternal World is in a very chaotic state and many forces have appeared. The number of men you brought over does not seem enough.”

Liu Wuxiang considered the issue for a moment before saying, “It is something I had considered before. Back in the pocket dimension just now, if it weren’t for the fact that the other party wanted to extract our blood and genes, they would have killed us already. That said, I would like to ask Brother Chen to tell us more about the current situation of Eternal World so as to help us prepare.”

“Not a problem.” Chen Feng nodded and informed Liu Wuxiang’s team briefly about some of the larger forces in Eternal World. He also mentioned the situation regarding Heavenly Firmaments Palace.

As expected, the faces of Liu Wuxiang and the others turned somewhat grim.

“The Lightning Plane has intervened. This will be quite troublesome.”

The Immortal Plane was a very big place, far bigger compared to Eternal World. At the same time, it was also very chaotic. There was, however, one important difference between the Immortal Plane and Eternal World. In the Immortal Plane, there was one force officially ruling over the Immortal Plane. That force was the Immortal Court.

The Immortal Court was the number one power in the Immortal Plane while the Four Great Academies were the Four Great Holylands of Eternal World. Still, those two cannot be put on the same pedestal. At present, Heavenly Firmaments Palace had surpassed the Four Great Academies to the point where it could no longer challenge it.

Be it in terms of legacy or influence, the Immortal Court was the most ancient existence in all of the Immortal Region.

The matter of the Lightning Plane merging into the Immortal Plane was facilitated by the Immortal Court. At any rate, the three Ministries of Heavenly Justice, Heavenly Tribulation and Heavenly War had many cultivators from the Lightning Plane within them.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that the Lightning Plane was the Immortal Plane’s helper.

Cultivators like Liu Wuxiang and his friends, however, were loose cultivators there. While they do possess some strength and influence, they were but ants when compared to a colossal existence like the Immortal Court.

“What is this? It looks like Brother Liu is cowering a little.” Chen Feng laughed.

“This is not enough to make us cower, but this is something that requires a long-term plan. Besides, the four of us are only the first batch to be sent over. Next up, some more of our friends will be coming over as well.” Liu Wuxiang chuckled in response.

“If that’s the case, I can rest easy. Fellows, come with me to East Dragon Island. I will introduce you fellows to some friends.”

Judging by Liu Wuxiang’s words, an additional force will be coming over. This force will become an ally of East Dragon Island. That said, Chen Feng did feel a slight feeling of regret at the somewhat low level of this ally. Although every single cultivator in Liu Wuxiang’s team of four was a highly talented person, capable of facing off against Ascendant Immortals, they were still just Earthen Immortals in the end. When compared to the many Ascendant Immortals that the Lightning Plane was sending over, this force appeared somewhat weak. However, Chen Feng did not say that. At any rate, Liu Wuxiang was also from the Immortal Plane. There was a possibility that Liu Wuxiang could surprise him. Naturally, it would be for the best if the number of cultivators coming over was higher.

In the beginning, Liu Wuxiang and his companions had held a belittling attitude towards Eternal World. But when they reached East Dragon Island, they became so shocked that their hearts palpitated like drums. They looked at one another. They never expected that the East Dragon Island Alliance would be this strong.

“Doesn’t this mean the number of cultivators in the East Dragon Island Alliance has exceeded 100 million?” asked a surprised Liu Wuxiang. Upon entering East Dragon Island, Liu Wuxiang and his companions had been looking around and secretly calculating it.

“To be precise, it is already close to 200 million. Only, there are many low-level cultivators amongst that number,” Chen Feng said smilingly.

“I wonder, how many Ascendant Immortals are there here?” Fu Jia could not stop himself from asking.

“We do have quite a few Ascendant Immortals on our side. Without them, we would have been incapable of stopping Heavenly Firmaments Palace’s offensive. The number of Ascendant Immortals on Heavenly Firmaments Palace’s side – that it is openly showing – has exceeded 50.” Chen Feng did not give him a straight answer.

“Surely not?” Hearing Chen Feng’s words, even Liu Wuxiang grew sceptical.

If what Chen Feng had informed them about Eternal World was true, then they were indeed quite weak. Rather, they did not even have the qualifications to be stepping onto the stage.

As they were secretly pondering the issue, some cultivators came over from the outside. Seeing the four cultivators who came over, Liu Wuxiang and his companions found themselves incapable of staying still.

“Greetings, Island Lord.” The cultivator leading this group revealed a highly respectful attitude towards Chen Feng. Seeing that, Liu Wuxiang and his companions felt dumbfounded.

That’s a mid-level Ascendant Immortal! Surely not?

It was none other than Patriarch Carefree. Thanks to the True law that Chen Feng gave him, Patriarch Carefree had managed to advance to the mid-level Ascendant Immortal stage. Behind him were three other Ascendant Immortals. In the beginning, the three Ascendant Immortals did not think too highly of Chen Feng. But when they saw how Patriarch Carefree was behaving towards Chen Feng, the three of them quickly behaved themselves.

“Senior, thank you for the gesture. These three are?” Chen Feng then turned to look at the three Ascendant Immortals. They were only starter-level Ascendant Immortals. Truth be told, Chen Feng no longer think highly of cultivators at this level.

“These three are my old friends. Hearing that East Dragon Island is recruiting talents, they wanted to join as well. They hope to get the position of honoured guests here,” Patriarch Carefree said smilingly. There was a slightly prideful look on his face. In the past, he was only about on the same level as them, but now, he had already broken through and left them in the dust. Thinking about how the three of them had to treat him in a respectful and ingratiating manner, Patriarch Carefree became even more convinced that his decision back then was the right one.

“First Day!”

“First Star!”

“First Bright!”

“Greetings, Island Lord!”

The three cultivators’ attitude towards Chen Feng then became somewhat respectful.

“Thank you for the gesture. With your level of strength, you are definitely capable of getting the position of honoured guests here in East Dragon Island,” Chen Feng spoke to them courteously for a bit. Given Chen Feng’s ability to see, it was only natural for him to notice that the three of them were almost at the end of their lifespans. Should they fail to break through to the next level, their lives would come to an end.

It was obvious that the reason these three Ascendant Immortals came to join East Dragon Island was because they wanted to get some benefits. However, Chen Feng did not care about that. What East Dragon Island lacked at the moment was high-level cultivators. More, they were from First Origin Sect. This sect had quite a high number of cultivators. It was a considerable force in the world of cultivation.

Note: I keep getting the feeling that I should use the English equivalent for the trio’s names (Liu Wuxiang’s pals). Darksoul for An Hun, Bloodgear for Xue Bing, and Runeguard for Fu Jia. Depending on how the author describes them in future chapters, I might change it.
