“At least they can buy some time.”
Despite the participation of two more True Immortals, Chen Feng felt the pressure on him becoming even stronger. The Bedazzling Star Map flashed with light. However, it failed to rush out. Instead, the enemy managed to lock down its position.
Tens of True Immortals targeted the Bedazzling Star Map and Chen Feng felt his scalp going numb. At that very moment, he was visited by a feeling. Even if he could unleash this pseudo-Divine artifact’s full power, he would likely still be incapable of charging out.
“Fellows, channel all your strength! The moment between life and death has come!” Chen Feng’s voice rang out.
“Ha ha ha! Hopefully, we’ll be able to kill some more True Immortals! This will be a good death!” Patriarch Heavenly Sword laughed loudly.
The Bedazzling Star Map had revealed itself, transforming into a cluster of stars. It smashed forward, but an invisible power blocked it. The series of collisions caused the power that Chen Feng had just recovered to begin draining away.
This won’t do. Do I have to mobilize the Longevity Tower? Sigh! There are no other magic treasures while I am still too weak. Chen Feng sighed.
“Let me help you.” Suddenly, the space there was ripped apart and a stream of black light appeared. The stream of black light swept forward, breaking apart the obstructions put up by tens of True Immortals.
It’s the Dark Kirin! Chen Feng grew delighted and he quickly opened up the Bedazzling Star Map to allow the stream of black light in.
After entering the Bedazzling Star Map, the stream of black light immediately dispersed to transform into a group of cultivators. Every one of them was shrouded by the power of darkness and the aura of coldness that they were emanating made it so the others didn’t dare approach them.
The leader of this group was none other than the Dark Kirin, who was already at the True Immortal stage. There were over 100 cultivators behind him, all Ascendant Immortals who cultivated the power of darkness.
Seeing this force stunned Chen Feng.
“Senior, congratulations on the great progress in your cultivation base.” Chen Feng laughed.
“Congratulations.” Bi Qing also came to stand before the Dark Kirin.
“Looks like you’ve managed to gain quite a bit during this time.” Seeing the Dark Plane cultivators standing still behind the Dark Kirin, Chen Feng revealed a thoughtful look.
“I have gained control over a portion of the Dark Plane’s power. However, there are still some ways to go before I can fully control the Dark Plane and become the King of the Dark Plane.” Despite saying that, there was a somewhat prideful expression on the Dark Kirin’s face.
With the participation of the Dark Kirin, the power of the Bedazzling Star Map – a pseudo-Divine artifact – was unleashed once again. It smashed through tens of True Immortals only to once again end up within a viscous space.
“Still not working.” Chen Feng’s face had become somewhat pale.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Over 10 True Immortals attacked together and the Bedazzling Star Map shook violently. It looked as though it would break apart.
Sigh! This doesn’t look good. Chen Feng finally mobilized the Longevity Tower’s power and the Primary Spirit Diagram of First Origin unfurled as well. With two pseudo-Divine artifacts, the enemy’s attacks were unravelled in the end.
“Two pseudo-Divine artifacts!”
Seeing that, the True Immortals from the Heavenscrown Immortal Region felt their hearts stirring. They felt excited and delighted. Even some True Immortals that had yet to take action began losing their composure.
“It’s been 10,000 years since we entered this Limitless Immortal Region. And yet, we’ve only managed to collect 100 pseudo-Divine artifacts so far. To think that we’d end up encountering two this time.”
“Attack! Attack with everything we have! Capture that person! For him to be able to bring out two pseudo-Divine artifacts, he is surely not an ordinary person. He might have some background.”
This is a problem. The enemy is going all out. Chen Feng felt highly alarmed. The enemy had 1,000 True Immortals on their side. Even if they were to only mobilize 100 True Immortals against him, he could forget about charging out.
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
The Bedazzling Star Map continued to release sounds of explosions and power surged into it. All the Ascendant Immortals who were operating the various star positions were gravely wounded and they fell weakly to the ground.
There was too big of a difference between the two parties.
“This cannot go on.” The Dark Kirin had already mobilized the Dark Scripture, but still his body shook uncontrollably from the fight.
In the end, even the Dark Kirin and Bi Qing were incapable of enduring.
“Tower, take action. Let’s charge out.” Helpless, Chen Feng then turned to Tower for help.
“Are you sure? There is only a 50% chance of succeeding. Additionally, it will consume a great deal of my strength. Without any divine objects to replenish my strength, I will fall into a state of slumber for some time,” Tower replied.
“Err.” Chen Feng hesitated for a moment. The Longevity Tower was his foundation and he did not want any mishap to happen to it.
“We’ll wait for a bit.” Chen Feng gritted his teeth.
“Urgh!”
The Dark Kirin and Bi Qing grunted at the same time. Energy streams swirled about as both their fleshly bodies began cracking.
“Sigh, forget it! Tower, do it. If you don’t, we’ll end up dying here.” Chen Feng sighed. Despite the unwillingness in his heart, there was nothing else he could do.
“Let’s not rush this.” It was then that Tower’s voice suddenly took on a relaxed tone.
“What is it? Tower, could it be you are no longer confident?” Chen Feng grew more worried.
“The situation has changed. Reinforcements have arrived.”
“Reinforcements? From the Immortal Plane?” Chen Feng’s eyes lit up.
Somewhere deep in outer space, a small crack suddenly opened up. The crack grew bigger and bigger. Eventually, it was as though the universe itself had been split into two before a torrent of power charged out from the crack.
The one in the lead was a True Immortal. The torrent of power behind him was an army of Ascendant Immortals.
After the first torrent of power came a second torrent of power, followed by a third and so on.
Each torrent of power was led by a True Immortal and a hundred Ascendant Immortals and they all emanated an overwhelming aura of might. The aura of might charged at the warships from the Heavenscrown Immortal Region, causing them to shake.
It is indeed the Immortal Plane. Only, the number of True Immortals seems somewhat low. That said, it should be enough for us to break free from the enemy encirclement. The energy streams within Chen Feng’s whole body stirred vigorously as he made his preparations.
As expected, upon appearing, the immortal soldiers immediately formed battle teams to attack. No words were exchanged. This was also due to the order that the immortal soldiers had received beforehand.
“Humph! These are the immortal soldiers of the Limitless Immortal Region? They don’t look like much to me.”
In the face of the attacks from the immortal soldiers, 1,000 warships immediately grouped up and 100 True Immortals took action simultaneously. Their attacks engulfed several of the torrents of power formed by the immortal soldiers.
“The fools!” Chen Feng swore. The immortal soldiers were exuding a ferocious atmosphere indeed, but the number of True Immortals on their side was too small. Before even investigating the state of the enemy, they had recklessly attacked. Wasn’t that just suicide?
Only, what happened next shocked Chen Feng. Tens of the torrents of power abruptly converged to form a battle formation, which shone with a riot of colours to actually stop the attacks from the 100 True Immortals. At the same time, a mote of starlight flashed out from the spatial crack in space before transforming into a pillar of light. With the exception of its luminescence, the pillar of light did not appear particularly special. And yet, it easily pierced through two True Immortals and several Ascendant Immortals. The True Immortals cried out wretchedly, having taken grievous damage from that. As for the Ascendant Immortals, they were reduced to ash.
Then came a second pillar of light, then a third. More and more kept flashing out from the spatial cracks. As a result, several True Immortals were killed off and the cultivators from the Heavenscrown Immortal Region instantly fell into a state of chaos.
“Energy cannons. How did I forget about that?” Chen Feng exclaimed.
“Energy cannons? Did the Immortal Court take action?” Huo Yunlong grew astounded.
Despite his surprise, Chen Feng did not space out. Instead, he made use of the opportunity to direct the Bedazzling Star Map to charge out. Due to the participation of the Immortal Plane cultivators, an opening had appeared in the blockade created by the enemy fleet. Thanks to that, Chen Feng was able to successfully head out to outer space.
After that, the Bedazzling Star Map became like a star, flashing continuously to put more distance between itself and Eternal World.
“We finally got out.” Most of the Ascendant Immortals in the Bedazzling Star Map breathed a sigh of relief.
“As if it’s that easy.” Bi Qing and the Dark Kirin revealed wry smiles. As for Chen Feng, he was completely focused on controlling the pseudo-Divine artifact.
“There are 1,000 warships chasing after us, with 100 True Immortals and 10,000 Ascendant Immortals on them. If they catch up to us, we’ll still end up dying,” Chen Feng said.
“What? There are pursuers?”
The Ascendant Immortals were all shocked. They had failed to notice it at all. Chen Feng, on the other hand, could clearly sense tens of auras – the auras of True Immortals – locking down on the Bedazzling Star Map’s position. Not even flying through half a billion kilometres would help them shake these pursuers off.
“Still. It won’t be easy for them to catch up to us.” Chen Feng gritted his teeth. Although they had managed to break out from the previous blockade, the danger had yet to end. On the contrary, should their pursuers catch up to them, they can forget about escaping again.
Starlight continued flashing as they kept jumping through space. It was unknown just how far they had gone. In the end, they stopped on a cold planet. Chen Feng and the others had completely exhausted themselves, no longer capable of moving the Bedazzling Star Map anymore.
“Did we manage to shake them off?” someone asked in a delighted tone.
With a solemn expression on his face, Chen Feng slowly shook his head. The enemy’s aura was constantly locking down on their positions. Chen Feng was aware that it would only take them one day to catch up to them.
“Next up, we’ll have to fight to the death. There is no room for negotiation. The only other alternative is death,” Chen Feng said.
“I don’t believe that. I cultivated a divination technique before. Let me divine this.” An Ascendant Immortal began performing a divination technique only to swiftly cough out blood. His whole body wilted and his eyes turned deathly.
The feeling of waiting for death was a kind of torture. Chen Feng himself did not try to inspire them. In his opinion, even if all of them were to prepare themselves for a fight to the death, it would not help change the situation. In the face of absolute power, everything else was illusionary.
The weakest of the cultivators who could roam about in the Bedazzling Star Map was an Ascendant Immortal. Yet, never have they felt a day go by so slowly. Eventually, the warships arrived to surround the planet, but most of the cultivators there continued to display a dazed look on their faces as they simply waited for death. Seeing that caused Chen Feng to lament.
“Heh! What is there to fear? It’s just death. The fools. Just looking at them makes me upset.” Patriarch Heavenly Sword scoffed.
“By joining forces, we might be able to kill off a few more True Immortals. That’s not a bad deal.” Heavenly Premier Absolute chuckled, light flashing from his eyes. He had begun making use of a secret technique to help him recover to his peak.
“Hand over the pseudo-Divine artifacts and we can spare your lives.” The voice of a True Immortal made its way through the pseudo-Divine artifact to reach them.
“The other party is quite cautious. Knowing that their victory will come at quite a price, they decided to use this hypocritical method first.” Chen Feng revealed a contemptuous smile.
“Although hypocritical, some people are moved,” Bi Qing said.
Chen Feng looked around and saw a look of hope appearing on the once-hopeless faces of the Ascendant Immortals.
“Chen Feng.”
“Island Lord Chen.”
Several Ascendant Immortals rapidly moved over to stand before Chen Feng.
