Chapter 1053 Wave of Darkness
Translator: podao001
“What is this power?” Chen Feng had been left gaping the moment he saw the first black halo of light. The second black halo of light, on the other hand, continued sweeping forward. Several of the enemy True Immortals failed to evade in time and were immediately reduced to nothingness. Not even a piece of scrap was left of them.
The two strongest mid-level True Immortals did not flee. Instead, they brought out their strongest moves against the black halo of light. However, not even the top-grade Immortal artifacts in their hands could stop the black light. Their bodies began breaking down and blood flowed down from their mouths. That said, they did manage to stop this one wave of the black light.
Next, the two mid-level True Immortals grew aghast to see a third black halo of light emerging. They knew then that they could not hold it off anymore. Utilizing a secret technique, they burned their essence power and broke space to disappear in an instant. As for the starter-level True Immortals, they failed to escape. All of them were killed by the black light.
“Holy smokes! It’s so powerful! That was practically a one hit kill for all. Was I hallucinating?” Huo Yunlong exclaimed. The black halos of light from earlier did not just kill off the enemy cultivators, they also cleared out the attacks from the power of darkness coming at them from the front. This power that the Dark Kirin had displayed was at least 10 times stronger than before.
“That’s the Dark Scripture’s power. But now, I have exhausted all my strength. I’ll be leaving the rest to you fellows,” the Dark Kirin said with a wry smile.
“What?”
Chen Feng looked at the Dark Kirin before a wry smile also appeared on his face. The Dark Kirin had unleashed a sudden burst of incredible power. Naturally, something like this would come with a price.
“How long until you recover?”
“That was my first time using the earlier attack. So, I do not know how long it will take for me to recover either.” After saying that, the Dark Kirin flew into the Dark Scripture, which then disappeared from sight with a flash.
“He actually disappeared.” Huo Yunlong gaped.
“Thankfully, we managed to deal with our pursuers. However, there is still a great deal of difficulties up ahead.” Chen Feng sighed.
“Should we turn back?” Huo Yunlong suggested.
“We’ve already come all the way here and you’re actually suggesting we turn back? No matter what, we should at least explore a little.”
After pondering for a moment, Chen Feng then utilized his eye technique, looking around while venturing forward.
Although they were no longer any pursuers behind them, Chen Feng and Huo Yunlong felt even more pressure and danger.
Soon enough, they sensed something amiss about their surroundings.
“What’s going on here? This path we’re taking feels wrong.”
“But of course. This is a space of darkness that the other party created. If we fail to break out, we will end up becoming lost inside this space.”
“I’ll create a path, then,” Huo Yunlong said, stabbing forward with his flaming battle lance. Intense flames kept bursting outwards and their surroundings instantly transformed into a sea of flames. The sea of flames grew increasingly large and it spread out around Chen Feng and Huo Yunlong.
“Magic Eyes of Darkness.” Chen Feng’s eyes turned completely black, becoming like black holes.
“The Dark Kirin is incapable of making a move for now, but I have also cultivated the Dark Scripture.” Chen Feng’s eyes began rotating at a rapid pace. When they reached a certain speed, the semi-transparent silhouette of the Dark Scripture appeared.
And so, the surrounding power of darkness was devoured by Chen Feng.
“Here.”
Sensing the flaws in their surroundings, Chen Feng pointed and Huo Yunlong immediately fired out a flame attack in that direction.
“Here.”
“Up ahead.”
“More power.”
The two of them worked together and it did not take long before the space before them was cleared. They finally broke out from the space that the other party had created to restrain them.
However, there were stronger opponents waiting for the two of them.
Two ape-type extra-terrestrial creatures stood before them. Each one was 100,000 zhang tall and the wild aura their exuded caused the surrounding space to shake chaotically.
“Mid-level True Immortal.” Chen Feng and Huo Yunlong looked at each other.
“How are we supposed to beat this? Let’s just go back. Did we end up entering an ape’s lair?”
But it was no longer possible for the two of them to leave. The two massive extra-terrestrial creatures had already attacked them.
Boom! Boom!
Both Chen Feng and Huo Yunlong were sent flying at almost the same time. Huo Yunlong transformed into a clump of flames, which danced about violently, seemingly ready to explode at any moment.
As for Chen Feng, despite his mighty fleshly body, he had still needed to use up almost all his strength to endure. His primary energy circulated and his insight acupoints kept gushing with power. At the same time, he utilized the two formidable secret techniques, the Heavengulping Absorption Technique and Demonic Heavengorging Art, to devour 10% of the enemy’s power. His magic treasures then stopped 20% of the power while the remaining 70% bore down upon Chen Feng’s body.
Upon entering Chen Feng’s body, the power immediately deposited itself into every corner of Chen Feng’s body. Chen Feng had to swiftly circulate his longevity-type primary energy, circulating it over 10,000 times in a short time to unravel the power.
These are True laws. They are truly difficult to handle. Chen Feng opened his mouth to exhale a black-coloured breath of air. Those were the impurities that he had extracted after taking the attack.
“Impressive! That attack nearly blew me up. Chen Feng, how is your fleshly body so strong?” Huo Yunlong had transformed into a flaming giant, giving off a ferocious air of majesty. But a closer look revealed that he was not looking too good.
“If you can endure cultivating inside the lightning pond we found back then for 100 years, your fleshly body will also become this strong.”
“For real? Forget it, though. The might of my fleshly body will increase once I succeed in forming Fire Lightning. For now, we should think of a way to deal with these two apes. They’re too strong.”
As the two of them were chatting, the two apes charged forward once more. With a simple move, they sealed up all options of retreat. True laws flowed about and grand dao laws emerged. Due to that, Chen Feng and Huo Yunlong found themselves incapable of backing away. They had no choice but to take on the enemy attacks head on.
Boom!
This time, Huo Yunlong’s body was blown up. However, the flames converged to quickly reform Huo Yunlong’s flaming body. That said, his aura did become considerably weaker.
Chen Feng was not in a good state either, cracks having appeared on his body. But he was still able to hold on.
“I’ll stop them. Whether or not we can obtain the Spiritual Fountain of Darkness will be up to you,” Chen Feng said, the wounds on his body disappearing. Chen Feng then waved his hand and starlight seeped out all around them while a river of stars flowed out to envelop the two apes.
“Will you be all right all on your own?” Despite saying that, Huo Yunlong was quick to take action. His figure disappeared in a flash.
“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”
Chen Feng was secretly crying inside. These apes were the strongest foes he’d had to face since advancing to the Ascendant Immortal stage. He knew. Even if he were to display all his might, he would likely be incapable of dealing with the two apes.
A mid-level True Immortal was no joke. And there were two of them there.
Boom!
They fought once more. This time, Chen Feng did not back away. Instead, he made use of the Longevity Wings to unleash a ferocious and violent wave of attacks upon the apes.
The battle was so violent that a True Immortal who was secretly spying on them was accidentally swept into the fight as well. He was ripped to pieces as a result.
Hopefully, it is not too dangerous up ahead. At that very moment, there was already a distance of over half a million kilometres between Huo Yunlong and Chen Feng. With the exception of some concentrated powers of darkness, there were no other dangers. Even so, Huo Yunlong did not let his guard down. On the contrary, he became even more alert. It was the critical moment that would often prove to be dangerous.
Boom!
A massive, black-coloured skull suddenly appeared to swallow Huo Yunlong with one gulp.
After struggling to break free, Huo Yunlong grew dispirited to find that his strength alone was insufficient.
They got me. Hopefully, Chen Feng will be able to come rescue me.
But Chen Feng was not in a good spot himself. Rather, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was in a worse state than Huo Yunlong. At the very least, Huo Yunlong was only trapped. Chen Feng, on the other hand, had to face the siege of the two apes and was seriously wounded. His body was already on the verge of breaking apart.
Chen Feng wielded the Immortal Slaughter Sword in one hand while the Chaos Chain kept swirling around. Occasionally, starlight would flow out from his body as well. However, all of that was insufficient to stop the enemy’s ferocious attacks.
Bang!
Chen Feng coughed out blood and was forced back again. The enemy had ripped the Chaos Chain in half. If it weren’t for the fact that the Immortal Slaughter Sword was capable of threatening the enemy somewhat, Chen Feng would have snuck into the Longevity Tower long ago.
“Chen Feng, should we come out and help?” The group of Ascendant Immortals who were cultivating inside the Bedazzling Star Map could sense Chen Feng’s predicament. The vibrations within the Bedazzling Star Map had long since affected them.
“Fellows, don’t worry. Just stay calm and continue with your cultivation.”
Hearing that, the cultivators felt somewhat depressed. They were cultivators who had spent many years exploring outer space, after all. Additionally, they were also Chen Feng’s seniors. But since leaving Eternal World, they’d had to constantly hide inside the Bedazzling Star Map and cultivate themselves. This was quite vexing.
Of course, they were also aware that there was nothing they could do about it. Given their current level of strength, coming out would simply result in their deaths. It would not help Chen Feng at all.
Bang!
Chen Feng was struck once more. The flesh on Chen Feng’s body was already beginning to burst apart and they kept falling off. Even his bones were cracked. The assailing power from a True Immortal – once it managed to take effect upon the body – was very difficult to get rid of. One could only slowly unravel it. This was a True Immortal, an existence that was far stronger compared to an Ascendant Immortal.
No match for them. Chen Feng gritted his teeth. Over the course of the battle, Chen Feng had displayed various techniques. He had tried devouring their essence, energy and soul power, but the apes’ bodies and souls were strong enough to simply endure it. Once, Chen Feng had unleashed the might of the pseudo-Divine artifact to pierce right through the body of one of the apes, only for the ape to utilize a secret technique to quickly heal itself.
In Chen Feng’s opinion, these two apes were even stronger than the one he saw outside.
“Human, you dare step foot in here. Death will be your end.” The two apes unleashed even stronger attacks at Chen Feng. As a result, their surrounding space became engulfed in darkness and only a massive fist could be seen smashing towards Chen Feng.
I cannot stop it. Looks like I will have to enter the Longevity Tower to evade this. Hopefully, the Longevity Tower will be able to charge out. Chen Feng sighed to himself. He had already given it his all. Even so, he was still no match for mid-level True Immortals.
It was at that moment that coercive waves of majesty, tangible in quality, suddenly swept out from up ahead. Sensing the aura, the faces of the two apes attacking Chen Feng sank sharply and they promptly retracted their moves before swiftly dashing away. In just an instant, they had disappeared from sight.
Eh, what’s happening? Chen Feng was shocked. Next, however, a concentrated power of darkness that was as solid as iron gushed out from up ahead. All of Chen Feng’s hairs stood on end and his heart kept screaming danger.
A manic wave of darkness! During that critical moment, the words flashed across Chen Feng’s mind.
