It’s about time I take action. After receiving two more attacks head on, Chen Feng stopped hesitating and he quickly took action.
Shua!
The faint-red astral sword slashed down upon Chen Feng’s head, but the corners of Chen Feng’s lips curled into a smile. Next, the astral sword flashed and disappeared from sight.
It had entered the Longevity Tower.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Upon entering the Longevity Tower, the astral sword kept slashing and colliding against its surroundings. However, it failed to leave even a mark upon the surface of the Longevity Tower’s interior.
Even so, Chen Feng could still feel the Longevity Tower shaking fiercely.
The astral sword contained 30% of the immortal sword’s power. It can already be considered as part of the immortal sword and not just some ordinary astral sword.
Great! I have also obtained some astral swords and sword intent in the past. This time, however, the quality of this astral sword is the best I ever. If I can subdue and refine it, the time needed for my Steel Enigma Sword to level up to the Immortal tier can be shortened by several folds.
The Steel Enigma Sword was a mid-grade Dao artefact with the power of metal. It was a weapon that Chen Feng would rarely utilize. Thus, it had been kept within his body all this time.
“Subdue!”
Chen Feng shouted and the 100,000 great arrays within the Longevity Tower began rotating. A formidable power roared out and a talisman was formed. It appeared light and fluttery. And yet, it became like a million-zhang-tall mountain as it pressed down on the astral sword to instantly shut it down.
Good. Chen Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Heh! Looks like I can do it even without Tower’s assistance. Chen Feng felt somewhat proud of himself.
“Humph! You think it is so easy to collect the Immortal Astralmax Sword?” A voice rang out. Chen Feng’s actions did not shock them. It would appear that they had expected this move from Chen Feng.
The cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace attempted to link up with the astral sword again and again, but to no avail. When that happened, they finally sensed that something was amiss.
Sou!
Another astral sword sliced through space. This astral sword was both blue and red in colour and 30% stronger compared to the faint-red astral sword that Chen Feng had collected earlier.
Oh, another astral sword?
Despite his surprise, Chen Feng decided to once again utilize the Longevity Tower to collect it.
This astral sword is even stronger than the previous one. However, it will simply help me more. Have they lost their minds? Chen Feng wondered.
However, Chen Feng was quick to realize what the enemy intended to do.
The astral sword suddenly exploded with a bang and streams of sword energy surged about in a chaotic manner, desirous of destroying everything inside the Longevity Tower. Placed outside the Longevity Tower, the power exhibited by the streams of sword energy could easily destroy everything within a radius of 5,000 kilometres.
Amidst the streams of sword energy that were rampaging about chaotically, a stream of blue light flashed forward to slash the talisman that was suppressing the previous astral sword.
The talisman was destroyed and the faint-red astral sword promptly charged forward. Following that, the streams of sword energy that were chaotically rampaging about quickly converged to form an astral sword once more, blue and red in colour.
The two astral swords then began wreaking havoc within the Longevity Tower.
So, there is such a technique. Chen Feng smiled inwardly and mobilized the great arrays of the Longevity Tower to form two talismans out.
And so, the two astral swords were subdued.
Tsk, tsk. What a good deal! However, I believe they call this the Immortal Astralmax Sword, right? Will they just keep on sending out astral swords? If that’s all, how do they plan on continuing this fight?
As Chen Feng expected, two more astral swords slashed forward. Additionally, each of them was stronger than the previous one. Unfortunately for them, the two astral swords were once again collected and subdued.
However, suppressing the four astral swords was consuming a great deal of Chen Feng’s power. If the enemy were to send out two more astral swords, Chen Feng feared that he would end up having difficulty controlling even the Longevity Tower.
“Immortal Skylodge Palace, come!”
Chen Feng waved and the Immortal Skylodge Palace abruptly appeared before him. Next, it swiftly expanded in size even as it furiously smashed down against the ground. By the time it made contact with the ground, it was already a massive palace.
Formidable energy fluctuations spread out and a change happened to the space created by Nine Firmaments Palace’s immortal palace. Both were immortal palaces of the same grade. Thus, it was unrealistic for it to entrap Chen Feng. Moreover, Chen Feng had also used up a high number of Immortal crystals for the Immortal Skylodge Palace, allowing it to put on a magnificent display of power.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
Nine Firmaments Palace’s immortal palace was known as the Immortal Clearsky Palace. It was something that had existed for who knows how many tens of thousands of years. Sensing the threat posed by the Immortal Skylodge Palace, it did not even bother getting the permission from the cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace before opening up a spatial crack to send Chen Feng and the Immortal Skylodge Palace out.
“Oh, no! A third Immortal artefact! He has another Immortal artefact!”
“Three Immortal artefacts. This is not part of the plan. Let’s leave!”
“Humph! What is there to fear? So what if this kid possesses three Immortal artefacts? Could he utilize their full powers?”
“That’s right! Chen Feng is only a Human Immortal. He wants to mobilize the full powers of three Immortal artefacts? Even if he over exhausts himself to the point of dying, he will still be incapable of accomplishing that.”
“But Chen Feng has successfully charged out from the Immortal Clearsky Palace.”
“That’s only temporary. His strength won’t be able to last long. There are so many of us. Can we not handle a pipsqueak like him? That’s three Immortal artefacts we’re talking about here! Think about this carefully. If our sect can get three more Immortal artefacts, unifying the Northern Plains will be close at hand.”
“Go all out! Capture Chen Feng and snatch his Immortal artefacts!”
“Have you guys gone mad! This is not part of the plan.”
“The battlefield is an unpredictable place. Plans must be changed according to the situation.”
Seeing Chen Feng bring out the Immortal Skylodge Palace all of a sudden, the cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace fell into a state of chaos and some began disagreeing with their current plan.
Chen Feng ignored what was happening to them. He controlled the Immortal Skylodge Palace and furiously smashed forward with it. For this burst of power, Chen Feng had used up millions of Immortal crystals. Furthermore, every attack that the Immortal Skylodge Palace was currently unleashing would use up another million Immortal crystals.
Chen Feng clenched his teeth as he went all out.
Boom!
The Immortal Skylodge Palace and Immortal Clearsky Palace collided heavily against one another.
The lands quaked and mountains shook.
Space shattered and the starry sky spun.
This was a collision between two genuine Immortal artefacts. As for Chen Feng, he had long since prepared himself for it. With the Longevity Tower there for protection, Chen Feng was not too badly damaged by the shockwaves.
The cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace who were hiding in the surrounding areas, on the other hand, suffered terribly from the collision. Some were instantly forced out from their stealth state before puking out blood. Some saw their bodies cracking as their energy streams roiled about chaotically.
“Ha ha ha ha ha! Great, again!” Chen Feng laughed loudly.
Boom!
Yet another one million Immortal crystals were used up and the Immortal Skylodge Palace charged forward once again.
Yet another violent collision. This time, the Immortal Clearsky Palace was incapable of enduring and the collision sent it tumbling through a distance of half a million kilometres.
Instantly, two Earthen Immortals from Nine Firmaments Palace blew up, their bodies transformed into a mist of blood which filled the sky. They were amongst those controlling the Immortal Clearsky Palace. Thus, the collision had affected them as well.
As for Chen Feng, he was already hiding inside the Longevity Tower. Even so, the collision made him feel as though his head would blow up.
Suddenly, Chen Feng laughed maniacally.
They were presently within Nine Firmaments Palace’s territory. Thus, Nine Firmaments Palace was the one suffering the most from this fight. The collisions earlier had destroyed countless mountain ranges and affected who knows just how many cities.
Chen Feng’s divine sense swept out to inspect the situation within a radius of half a million kilometres.
Then...
Boom!
Another one million Immortal crystals were used as the Immortal Skylodge Palace streaked forward like a meteor before smashing against the Immortal Clearsky Palace once again.
Coincidentally, there was a high number of cultivators moving forward somewhere nearby. They were the reinforcements sent forth by Nine Firmaments Palace, numbering at least 100,000 men. To their surprise, they ended up getting swept into the shockwaves from the collision.
Not a single one of the 100,000 cultivators survived.
This collision caused three Earthen Immortals to blow up, dying in the process. One of them was Patriarch Thunderclap.
“Chen Feng, have you gone mad? Do you know how many living beings will die from this? Are you not afraid of Heavenly Tribulation?!” Patriarch Yan Mo’s face sank and horror was etched on his face.
“Heavenly Tribulation? Ha ha ha ha! If I am afraid of Heavenly Tribulation, my path as a cultivator will come to an end! I am personally hoping that my Heavenly Tribulation will be a hundred times stronger!” Chen Feng appeared high up in the sky.
He then waved his hand and spirit stones appeared up in the sky.
“Those are!”
The Earthen Immortals from Nine Firmaments Palace were all horrified at what they saw.
“Those are Profound Origin Jade crystals! They are spirit stones of a higher grade than Immortal crystals!”
“Burn!”
Boom!
One million Profound Origin Jade crystals were burned up, transforming into a stream of yellow energy before entering the Immortal Skylodge Palace. Due to that, all of the magic arrays within the Immortal Skylodge Palace activated and the might of an Immortal artefact assailed the world.
Every single part of Nine Firmaments Palace’s territory could sense a formidable wave of energy fluctuations. To them, it felt as though the end of days had come.
“What a great commotion!”
“This is bad! What are those fellows doing? How can something like this be happening?”
“Go check what is happening!”
“Chen Feng brought out three Immortal artefacts! He has collected the astral swords from the Immortal Astralmax Sword and is now on the verge of smashing apart the Immortal Clearsky Palace!”
“Impossible! He is not that strong! The only way this is possible is if he is already an Ascendant Immortal!”
“He is burning up a shit tonne of Immortal crystals!”
“Madness! He is a maniac. Hurry, summon those old guys! Mobilize the Immortal artefacts and kill off Chen Feng!”
Boom!
The Immortal Skylodge Palace smashed forward once more. The Immortal Astralmax Sword had charged forward in an attempt to stop it, only to be knocked away, wailing as it did. In fact, dreadful-looking cracks appeared on the surface of the sword as a result.
This time, the Immortal Clearsky Palace reached its limits. Due to the continuous attacks from the Immortal Skylodge Palace, it began falling apart. Many of its magic arrays were destroyed and even its core was affected.
Weng!
The Immortal Clearsky Palace felt an unprecedented feeling of fear. It quickly broke space, wanting to flee.
It was then that the Ancient Flame Beetle that had been hiding all this time suddenly attacked. It charged out, piercing right through the Immortal Clearsky Palace with the Netherbone Lance.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
The Immortal Clearsky Palace took three successive stabs from the Ancient Flame Beetle. Due to that, it teetered on the brink of destruction.
“Come!”
Chains shot out from the Longevity Tower to rapidly bind the Immortal Clearsky Palace before pulling it inside.
Sou!
Shua! Shua! Shua!
The Ancient Flame Beetle continued attacking with the Netherbone Lance. Every attack it unleashed would result in the death of an Earthen Immortal.
In just moments, 10 Earthen Immortals had died, Patriarch Yan Mo included. There was even a high-level Earthen Immortal amongst those killed.
