Chapter 1040 Eight Stone Pillars

Translator: podao001

This time, it was a tiger yao. The moment it emerged, it fired out a roaring attack and the soundwaves created ripples visible to the naked eye. In response, Chen Feng waved to put the Demonic Phantom Panther before him.

As a result, the Demonic Phantom Panther released a shriek of misery as every hair on its body stood erect and cracks began appearing upon its tough body.

“A Roaring Tiger Shockwave.” Chen Feng jerked and the Chaos Chain promptly tightened, causing the Demonic Phantom Panther to explode, reduced to a clump of bloody mist. Chen Feng then followed it up by stepping forward, the Chaos Chain circling before him to defend him, coming together to form a steel-like wall.

Boom!

The wall exploded and the Chaos Chain flew back to enter Chen Feng’s body. However, it swiftly re-appeared, emerging from his back instead. Swirling around, it prepared to attack once again.

Swinging his sword, Chen Feng employed the Longevity Steps to fight the pouncing tiger yao. In truth, when it came to combat power and cultivation level, Chen Feng was far inferior compared to a True Immortal. However, thanks to the protection of his magic treasures, he was in an invincible position.

That said, the other party had eight stone pillars in total. Seeing Chen Feng surrounded by the stone pillars, the black-clad cultivator revealed a relaxed expression. In his opinion, now that he had brought out these eight stone pillars, Chen Feng can forget about escaping, not even with the pseudo-Divine artifacts in his possession.

While the black-clad cultivator was in no hurry to end it, the same was true for Chen Feng. Rather, Chen Feng was hoping for another wave of death energy – like the one he encountered earlier – to sweep by. It would be for the best if the wave of death energy could kill off these enemies of his.

But when another yao beast emerged from the third stone pillar, Chen Feng began feeling slightly pressured. This time, it was a colossal bear yao. One slap from its paw caused the protection from the pseudo-Divine artifact to shake. If it weren’t for the aid of the Primary Spirit Diagram of First Origin, the attack could have wounded Chen Feng.

This is not the way to go. He has a total of eight stone pillars. If every stone pillar releases a yao beast at the True Immortal stage, I will be incapable of escaping. Chen Feng grew concerned.

However, as time went on, only the tiger yao and bear yao remained there to fight Chen Feng. No other creatures appeared. Seeing that, some speculations formed in Chen Feng’s mind. Suddenly, he unleashed an attack with the Longevity Tower and Primary Spirit Diagram of First Origin to collect the tiger yao into the magic treasure.

As a result, the stone pillars shone and a wyrm roared as it charged out from one of the stone pillars.

So, that’s it, then. He can only mobilize two stone pillars at once. If that’s the case, the danger is not that high, Chen Feng thought.

“I say, pal. It’d be better for us to talk this out. I have magic treasures to protect me. You are simply incapable of doing anything to me.” Chen Feng took two attacks head on and released a sword swing to send the bear yao flying.

“There is nothing to talk about. What I want are the magic treasures on you,” the black-clad cultivator said icily.

“There is one thing I didn’t tell you. I have a method that can send information out from here. Think about it. If others find out that there is a cultivator from the Soulgobbling Clan here, what would happen?” Chen Feng suddenly said.

“This space is very mysterious. I do not believe that you can send any information out.”

“Do not forget, I am from the Longevity Clan. Additionally, I also have a Longevity Tower. Sending a message to the Celestial Longevity Plane is still within my abilities.”

“That’s even more of a reason to kill you!” Killing intent surged out from the black-clad cultivator’s eyes and his figure darted forward to join the fight. Invisible soul power converged into the shape of a drill before charging towards Chen Feng.

“Urgh!” Chen Feng grunted and he backed away, his face pale. Since cultivating the Soul Subduing Mantra, Chen Feng’s ability to utilize his soul power had exceeded that of most cultivators, capable of even killing those on a higher level. However, in the face of this cultivator from the Soulgobbling Clan, his soul power felt too weak. His soul flame, at the vital flame realm, was only barely strong enough. As for the rest, they were far too inferior.

“Since you don’t know what’s good for you, you can just go die!” The black-clad cultivator kept utilizing his secret techniques in an attempt to devour Chen Feng’s soul power. As it was a one versus three, Chen Feng began falling into a precarious spot.

“Tower, do you think I can counter attack and devour his soul power instead?” Chen Feng secretly asked.

“It is possible. Both the Demonic Heavengorging Art and Heavengulping Absorption Technique are capable of doing that, but your level is simply too low. It’s not much. As long as you can increase your cultivation base by two more levels, there will be no need to fear him. As you are right now, though, you are still too weak. Without the magic treasures, he would have devoured you up long ago,” Tower replied.

“If so, what should I do now?” That was Chen Feng’s main concern.

“Heh! You can’t deal with him even with the help of two pseudo-Divine artifacts? What should I say about you?” Tower said disdainfully.

“You know as well that I am too weak. I am simply incapable of stirring out the pseudo-Divine artifacts’ full power.” Chen Feng shook his head helplessly.

“If you cannot even handle this True Immortal, you will likely be incapable of getting the benefits.”

“Benefits? What benefits?” Chen Feng was quick to ask.

“Naturally, the corpse of a Heavenly Immortal.”

“There is really the corpse of a Heavenly Immortal here?”

“I don’t know if there are any of that here, but I can already sense the power of Heavenly laws.”

“Heavenly laws!” Chen Feng instantly became excited before falling silent. Heavenly laws were the grand dao laws created by Heavenly Immortals. If Tower could sense it, there should be no mistake about it.

Although there is no way to close up the difference in cultivation levels, by borrowing the power of pseudo-Divine artifacts, I should be able to fight him! Chen Feng collected the Chaos Chain and the swords. Then, with a wave of his hand, a mote of starlight formed upon the tip of his finger.

Another wave of his hand caused a river to charge straight towards the black-clad cultivator. The mote of starlight was created by the Bedazzling Star Map while the river was created by the Primary Spirit Diagram of First Origin. Chen Feng had decided to make a risky move of not using them to defend himself. That way, he would be able to exert even more of their power.

Bang!

The starlight pierced the bear yao and the river engulfed the black-clad cultivator. He would not be able to charge out anytime soon.

However, the wyrm then arrived before Chen Feng to land a furious slam against his body, sending him flying. The sound of bones breaking kept ringing out from his body and he slammed against one of the stone pillars. The stone pillar shook before a massive, gold-coloured wolf yao charged out from it. Opening its mouth, it then bit down on Chen Feng’s shoulder.

So, the eight stone pillars can operate by themselves once they are set up. Chen Feng sent a backhanded punch at the wolf yao’s body, only to fail to make it budge. On the contrary, its sharp fangs managed to pierce their way into Chen Feng’s body.

It’s been a long time since I ended up in such a miserable state. Sensing a strange power destroying the vitality within him, Chen Feng revealed a wry smile.

“Kirin Slash of Extreme Night!” A beam of black light, condensed to become a sharp blade, suddenly appeared to land heavily upon the wolf yao’s body. Black light flowed across the surface of the blade and the image of a roaring kirin was projected from it. Chen Feng could clearly sense the pure power of darkness and ferocious slicing power within it.

With that, the wolf yao was cleaved into two. Even so, its head – on its upper body – continued to clamp down on Chen Feng’s body. Having reached this level, even dismemberment may not be enough to kill it.

Still, this move from the Dark Kirin gave Chen Feng a good opportunity. The Immortal Slaughter Sword flew out from Chen Feng’s body, piercing through the wolf yao’s cranium, allowing Chen Feng to break free. However, he would not be able to dispel the chaotic power within his body anytime soon.

“Are you all right?” The Dark Kirin appeared in front of Chen Feng, a black blade in hand, rushing forward to stop the charging bear yao. The Dark Kirin roared, causing the bear yao to hesitated. The roar had shocked it and a look of terror escaped its eyes. Surprisingly, it began retreating before finally transforming into a stream of light, which flowed back into the stone pillar.

“Eh? That can happen?” Chen Feng was surprised. But what happened next shocked him even more. After the bear yao disappeared, another yao beast appeared. Only, before Chen Feng could even determine what kind of yao beast it was, the yao beast transformed into a stream of light as well to run back into its stone pillar.

Following that, the Dark Kirin roared another time. Chen Feng could feel that the Dark Kirin was not releasing his power of darkness with the roar. Instead, he released the aura of a ferocious yao beast. As a result, the stone pillars shuddered a few times before falling still.

“To be running away when facing a Dark Kirin. Is it due to their genes? Seriously?” Chen Feng’s face twitched.

Watching his opponents running away, the Dark Kirin revealed a look of pride. Indeed, in terms of their genes, the Dark Kirin was far above them all. His genes would not even lose out against a true dragon. Naturally, this situation was only possible because the Dark Kirin was strong enough. If the Dark Kirin was not at the True Immortal stage, the yao beasts would likely have swarmed forward to rip the Dark Kirin to pieces.

“I want to see what other moves this cultivator from the Soulgobbling Clan have.” As the yao beasts were no longer a factor, Chen Feng began having other thoughts. With a wave of his hand, he sent another river of starlight at the black-clad cultivator.

Bang!

A wretched scream rang out. This attack from the Bedazzling Star Map nearly ripped the black-clad cultivator’s body apart. He then tried to escape only for the river created by the Primary Spirit Diagram of First Origin to restrain him. Sensing the threat of death looming over his neck, the black-clad cultivator began thinking that he had made a mistake.

“Earlier, I tried to negotiate with you, but you insisted on killing me instead. You didn’t think it would end like this, did you? I don’t want to kill you. Just hand over half of your soul power and we’ll call it even.” As Chen Feng was levelling attacks at the black-clad cultivator, he also fired out verbal attacks to paralyze him.

“A minor Earthen Immortal! Insect! You think that having a few magic treasures will allow you to challenge a True Immortal like me? My methods are infinite. Any one of them is enough to have you begging for death!” The black-clad cultivator’s face regained a look of calmness and his pair of eyes turned upon Chen Feng, who sensed danger.

The eight stone pillars remained still around them, but Chen Feng could clearly sense grave danger from the stone pillars. It felt as though the stone pillars were living creatures. Next, waves of energy fluctuations spread out from the eight stone pillars. Instantly, Chen Feng was struck by a bout of dizziness and his body felt weak. After his soul flame burned to dispel his abnormal state, he found that there were chains tying up his limbs. Looking at the Dark Kirin, he saw that the Dark Kirin was also firmly bounded by chains.

What kind of move is this? Chen Feng was shocked.

“These eight stone pillars are a very unique type of magic treasures. If we are to classify them, each of the stone pillars is the equivalent of a pseudo-Divine artifact.” Tower’s voice rang out within Chen Feng’s sea of wisdom.
