Chapter 889 Reveal

Translator: podao001

Since you fellows aren’t going to attack, let me see what you are up to. Chen Feng smiled to himself.

Just in case, though, Chen Feng decided to make some other arrangements. Although Chen Feng did not bring any other cultivators with him, there were still some forces left within the Longevity Tower.

One such example was the Ancient Flame Beetle that had been sleeping all this time. Although this extra-terrestrial beast was constantly in deep slumber, its rate of cultivation was in no way slow. With enough power of fire, it was able to advance quickly.

At that very moment, the Ancient Flame Beetle was already at the Earthen Immortal stage. Upon receiving Chen Feng’s command, it immediately woke up. Next, wielding the Netherbone Lance in hand, it transformed into a speck of light before flying out using the spatial passageway created by the Longevity Tower. After that, it found a place to hide.

In Chen Feng’s opinion, by wielding an Immortal artefact, the Ancient Flame Beetle would be strong enough to kill even a high-level Earthen Immortal.

With this power placed outside, Chen Feng was able to relax.

“Fine. You fellows want sincerity, right? If so, I will tell you what I want.” Chen Feng nodded. Without waiting for their reply, he extended his fingers out and continued, “First, your Nine Firmaments Palace hunted me with the aim of killing me back then. I cannot simply forget about it. I need compensation. It is very simple. I just need your Nine Firmaments Palace’s Nine Firmaments Scripture.”

“You have quite the appetite,” Patriarch Yan Mo responded with a scoff while the faces of the other three turned dark.

“Don’t be hasty. I am not done yet. That is just the first condition. Second, your Nine Firmaments Palace is to immediately withdraw your troops and return all the occupied territory to Extreme Celestial Sect. You also need to compensate Extreme Celestial Sect a part of their military expenses. As for the details, you fellows can work it out with Extreme Celestial Sect.”

“Insolence!”

“Like I said, don’t be hasty. There’s more. Third, so many of us came over for this; this trip cannot be for nothing. How about this? We can withdraw from the Central Plains, but your Nine Firmaments Palace must pay us some spirit stones. How does one billion Immortal crystals sound? That’s the lowest I am willing to go.

“That’s all for now.” After saying all that, Chen Feng smiled and looked at them.

Boom!

A great power abruptly charged out from the four Earthen Immortals. Chen Feng had finally managed to enrage them. Or perhaps, it would be more accurate to say that he had successfully ripped their façade apart.

“Chen Feng, you have a death wish!” Patriarch Thunderclap said, killing intent filling his voice.

“Cut it out, you four. No matter how you cut it, you are Earthen Immortals. Trying to trick a Human Immortal like me is bad enough, but you still want to go on with one horseshit after another? Is there any point in all this?” Chen Feng said lackadaisically, a ridiculing look on his face.

“Right. I’ve been wondering why you fellows haven’t attacked me yet. It turns out your preparations still aren’t complete. How about this? Let’s just be frank. I am here waiting for you fellows to finish your preparations and attack me. Will that do?”

“Chen Feng, I don’t know what you are talking about.” Patriarch Yan Mo was still trying to force out a smile.

Shua!

Chen Feng attacked all of a sudden. It was beyond the concept of fast and Chen Feng’s palm arrived upon Patriarch Yan Mo’s neck.

Given how close they were to each other, a mid-level Earthen Immortal would’ve been incapable of stopping Chen Feng’s attack.

However, Chen Feng did not tighten his grip. He already knew that it was pointless.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Four explosions erupted as Patriarch Yan Mo and the other three Earthen Immortals blew up and the formidable force behind the explosions assailed Chen Feng’s body. Even though Chen Feng was already prepared for it, the force behind the explosion had still thrown him out from the pavilion.

As for the pavilion itself, it was destroyed by the explosion.

Humph! A phantom technique. The technique they used to escape is quite good. It must be one of the secret techniques from the Nine Firmaments Scripture. That’s an immortal technique. Chen Feng then landed gently on the ground.

The four Earthen Immortals who blew themselves up earlier were just phantoms left behind by utilizing a certain secret technique. They were the equivalent of clones. Even so, the power behind their self-destruct move was strong enough to kill off even an Earthen Immortal.

However, it was not enough against Chen Feng.

“As expected, he is not to be underestimated. It is as I have said, we cannot look down on him.”

“Humph! I had wanted to wait until we have gathered enough power, but now it seems we’ll have to attack first.”

“Not exactly. We’re almost ready. Although the kid has Immortal artefacts on him, we have made enough preparations. Chen Feng will not be able to escape.”

“It is still better to exercise caution. Also, this kid is too arrogant. We must not let him die an easy death.”

The voices of Patriarch Yan Mo and the other three began echoing across the surrounding mountains. At the same time, space twisted and their faces were formed there. All four cast a sneering look at Chen Feng.

Chen Feng, on the other hand, did not attack. He knew that they were just an illusion.

“Sigh! Are you fellows going to attack just like this? Are you not afraid that the cultivators you fellows left behind would be killed off?” Chen Feng said smilingly.

“We’ve already made the necessary arrangements before coming over. Your men are probably already surrounded now. Who knows? They might have been killed already. You are right. We were simply spouting horseshit earlier. Our Nine Firmaments Palace is simply unafraid of Absolute Academy and Heavenly Sword Faction. As for your East Dragon Island, it is quite sizable. However, it is nothing more than fodder-like existence. It is of no consequence!” Patriarch Yan Mo said with a ridiculing tone.

“Is that so? Maybe you fellows should try and make contact with your men and see what is happening right now?” Chen Feng said, bringing out the Deepsea Maelstrom. The top-grade Dao artefact spun on Chen Feng’s palm. Although it appeared small, it could easily kill off an Earthen Immortal.

Hearing that, the four Earthen Immortals were taken aback. Maintaining a look of disdain towards Chen Feng, they secretly contacted their men. Quickly, their faces contorted, becoming most ugly to behold.

“How is it?” Chen Feng smiled.

“You have already prepared for this long ago?” Patriarch Yan Mo asked, gnashing his teeth.

“Of course. You fellows didn’t think I’d be stupid enough to just follow you without making any arrangements, did you?”

“You are stupid! You came, didn’t you? I’ll be honest with you. Even if you possess Immortal artefacts, you can forget about escaping now that you are here!”

“Chen Feng, oh, Chen Feng. You truly are a genius. The fact that you could establish such a force and make a name for yourself in the Central Plains proved that you indeed possess abilities. However, you think that the power you possess is enough to make an enemy of Nine Firmaments Palace? You’re mistaken! A terrible mistake! In truth, we have been keeping tabs on every action you made back there. If you had stayed in the Central Plains instead of coming here, you would have been able to stay alive for a little while longer. However, since you have decided to come here on your own volition, no one will be able to save you! There is only one end for you, and that is death!” Patriarch Yan Mo said solemnly.

“Unless I am sorely mistaken, you fellows must be behind the assassins that came after me in East Dragon Island. You did not take action yourself. Instead, you went and hired assassins from assassin organizations instead.”

“That’s right! We’ll let you die with peace of mind. This time, Extreme Celestial Sect is a goner. Even if all the cultivators from Absolute Academy come over, they will not be able to stop our Nine Firmaments Palace. Next up, we will unify the entire Northern Plains and become the number one force in the entire world of cultivation! Following that, we will sweep through the entire Eternal World and become the supreme overlord of this world!!!” Patriarch Thunderclap said loudly.

“You guys are dreaming. It’s just one crazy horseshit after another.” Chen Feng shook his head and chuckled derisively. The Deepsea Maelstrom in his hand abruptly grew in size. In just the blink of an eye, a number of the mountains before him had been sucked into the Deepsea Maelstrom, disappearing from sight.

“It is no dream! It is the future!!! Chen Feng, I can see that you are a talent. Join our Nine Firmaments Palace! How about it? As long as you join us, all of our past grudges can be swept away. By joining us, you will be able to learn more than when you were with Absolute Academy. When the time comes, we can give you control of the entire ocean region!” Patriarch Thunderclap said again.

Chen Feng stopped talking. Instead, he mobilized his Deepsea Maelstrom to attack. In his opinion, these fellows must had gone mad. They want to conquer the entire Northern Plains? That was an impossible goal. And yet, they were even talking about conquering the entire Eternal World. What a joke! Even now, Chen Feng was unable to ascertain just how big Eternal World was.

Woah!

The head silhouettes of the four Earthen Immortals were destroyed by the Deepsea Maelstrom.

“You don’t know the meaning of death! Do you know where you are? This is a pocket dimension! Even if you possess Immortal artefacts, you can forget about getting out!” Patriarch Yan Mo’s voice rang out.

“It’s just a pocket dimension.” Chen Feng flew up and utilized the Deepsea Maelstrom to attack. There were no flashy moves, just pure destruction.

Meanwhile, some time before this fight occurred...

Not long after Chen Feng left, Sword Immortal Great Heaven and Sword Immortal Great Wind led the other Human Immortals to attack the cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace.

This was the instruction that Chen Feng had left them before leaving.

However, when facing the incoming attack, the cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace did not panic. Instead, they revealed scornful smiles as runes shone upon each of their bodies.

They had long since prepared for this scenario. Each and every one of them carried a Voidbreak Talisman that would allow them to instantly break through space and leave the place.

“Ha ha ha ha! You bunch of fools. Chen Feng is a goner! You fellows will also die. To think that you would actually just wait here like fools!” Feeling smug, the cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace could not stop themselves from uttering words of ridicule.

Strangely though, the faces shown by Sword Immortal Great Heaven and Sword Immortal Great Wind resembled that of those looking at dead people. Most importantly, they were not trying to stop what the cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace were doing at all. Rather, they allowed them to utilize the Voidbreak Talismans.

The power emerging from the Voidbreak Talismans on their bodies wrapped around them before working to break open a spatial passageway. By entering the spatial passageway, they would be able to leave.

Seeing that, all of the cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace cast ridiculing gazes at their opponents.

However, the same held true for the cultivators on Sword Immortal Great Heaven’s side.

Next, the smiles on the faces of the cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace disappeared and some began panicking.

The Voidbreak Talismans on their bodies continued flashing with light as they assailed the space there. However, the space there remained stable. Rather, it was exhibiting an unprecedented level of stability. Not a single ripple appeared due to their actions, let alone break open a spatial passageway.

“What is happening?”

The cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace fell into a state of utter panic. Some began running only to quickly be obstructed by an invisible power. No matter how furiously they tried attacking, it was to no avail.
