Chapter 1044 War Immortal

“Treasures that are even more valuable compared to the corpses of Heavenly Immortals? What could that be?” Chen Feng was quick to ask.

“I do not know the details myself. However, there is a rumour here that the Heavenly Immortals who died here had all died in an attempt to obtain the treasures here,” Premier Golden Earth said with a serious tone.

“You sure know how to talk. Even if there is some super-duper treasure here, the fact is, even Heavenly Immortals had died trying to get their hands on them. If so, guys like us have even less of a chance to obtain them, no?” Huo Yunlong said unhappily.

“The items deep inside are beyond our grasp, but we can still snatch some of the treasures located at the peripheral areas. Take this objective that I will be bringing you fellows to as an example. If we can succeed, we will be able to obtain a considerable harvest,” Premier Golden Earth said smilingly.

“Tell us about it.” There was a cryptic look on Chen Feng’s face.

“Not far away from here is a spatial crevice. Every once in a while, some divine objects would erupt out from the spatial crevice. Look, this is something I had obtained from it in the past.” After saying that, Premier Golden Earth brought out an unassuming-looking stone. At a glance, the stone had appeared like a meteorite. The size of a fist, it shone with a quality of smoothness. When Chen Feng’s team of three saw the meteorite, their eyes lit up.

“This is!” The three of them were shocked.

Premier Golden Earth then swung to toss the stone over to Chen Feng. Instantly, Chen Feng felt as though a planet had fallen upon his body. Despite having channelled all his strength, he was incapable of holding on to it. Bursting sounds rang out from every bone in his body while his flesh rumbled. In the end, only by relying on the power of his magic treasures was he able to hold the abnormal stone.

“So heavy! It is practically as heavy as a star!” said a shocked Chen Feng.

“If I am not mistaken, this should be the star core from within a large planet,” the Dark Kirin said.

“Yes. It would not be an exaggeration to say that this is a star.” Seeing Chen Feng hold on to the star core, Premier Golden Earth looked at Chen Feng again. Given how heavy the star core was, it was not something that the average person could hold. Even the average True Immortal would become suppressed and wounded from trying to hold the star core.

“This star core is pretty good.” Chen Feng could clearly sense the power within the star core. Due to that, he felt somewhat reluctant to hand it back. Seeing that, Premier Golden Earth’s eyelids twitched.

In the end, Premier Golden Earth said, “Chen Feng, if you like it, you can bring something of equivalent value out in exchange for it.”

“I have indeed taken a fancy to this star core. Equivalent value, eh? Let me think.” Chen Feng was truly tempted. He needed the energy contained within the star core. Even in the worst-case scenario, he could still turn it into a good magic treasure.

However, what item should he bring out in exchange for this star core? Thinking about that made Chen Feng hesitant and his divine sense rapidly scanned the Longevity Tower.

In the end, Chen Feng sighed before returning the star core to Premier Golden Earth. He did have a considerable number of good items on him. Only, there were only a few that could be used in exchange for this star core. Moreover, those items that had value equal to the star core were items like top-grade Immortal artifacts. Chen Feng found himself reluctant to bring those out. And so, after feeling conflicted for a while, Chen Feng finally made up his mind.

“There is no need to be anxious, you three. Next up, we may be able to obtain items that are even better than this. Only, that spatial crevice is guarded by a cultivator. I had lost to him once. In the end, I nearly lost my life to him. Humph! He had been collecting all the good items from the spatial crevice all these years.” When he said that, an intense killing intent flashed across Premier Golden Earth’s face. Additionally, there was also a look of resentment.

“A cultivator is guarding it?” Chen Feng was surprised to hear that.

“Is he also an outsider?”

“Yes. His origins are very mysterious, but he is very strong. I am no match for him.” By then, Premier Golden Earth had already recollected himself.

“How often does the spatial crevice erupts?” Chen Feng asked.

“There is no fixed timing.”

“Ha ha ha! If so, this will depend on our luck.”

“If the other party is only slightly stronger than you, we will have a chance of defeating him. However, if he is too strong, we will have to give up on this.”

“Don’t worry. He is only slightly stronger than me. Why else would he not kill me last time?”

“Makes sense. Still, before we take action, I want to cultivate for a while,” Chen Feng suddenly said.

“Cultivate?” Premier Golden Earth grew puzzled.

“Yes. As I am right now, I am still not strong enough. I need to advance to the next level. I need to undergo my tribulation.”

“Undergo tribulation?” Premier Golden Earth was taken aback. But after looking at Chen Feng for a moment, he said nothing about it.

“I also need to undergo tribulation!” Huo Yunlong hastily said.

“It’d be better for you to hold it off still,” Chen Feng said, his figure entering the Bedazzling Star Map. As for the Dark Kirin, he stayed silently on a nearby asteroid to keep watch for Chen Feng.

Premier Golden Earth’s figure flashed to re-appear somewhere far away. He had been staying inside this mysterious space for hundreds of thousands of years, after all. This short period of time was not an issue for him.

After pondering for a moment, Huo Yunlong also entered the Bedazzling Star Map.

The Bedazzling Star Map then transformed into a shining star and a power – formed from the amalgamation of various types of power – pierced through the space there to allow the grand dao of the universe to surge inside. Likewise, the power of Heavenly Tribulation was able to flow through this passageway as well to enter the Bedazzling Star Map.

Seeing Chen Feng’s ability to break the restriction of this mysterious space, Premier Golden Earth grew more confident. At the same time, he also became slightly more wary. Should Chen Feng suddenly choose to betray him, he would have a hard time. This was someone who possessed pseudo-Divine artifacts, after all. However, when he recalled the spatial crevice, any risk seemed worth it.

At that very moment, Chen Feng was undergoing his tribulation inside the Bedazzling Star Map. Enveloped by a swirling cluster of stars, Chen Feng stood straight and streams of light flew out from his body. They were none other than the magic treasures inside him.

As they did not have much time, Chen Feng planned on having these magic treasures undergo their tribulations at the same time.

After the magic treasures were done with their tribulations, nine rays of bloody light roared forward. Those were the nine Poisonous Vileblood Wyrms that had been cultivating inside the Blood Mustering Bead all this time. As the wyrms were variant yao beasts to begin with, they possessed a very solid foundation. Chen Feng had also been providing them with a high number of cultivation materials. Add the recently-obtained blood essence of True Immortals into the equation, the wyrms’ strength had risen at a meteoric rate. It was so fast that even Chen Feng felt envious of them.

Chen Feng aside, Heavenly Tribulation powers were also descending upon another spot far away from Chen Feng. It was due to Heavenly Premier Absolute and the others, who had been cultivating inside the Bedazzling Star Map all this time. They had begun undergoing their respective tribulations as well.

“Fellows, don’t worry and just undergo your tribulation. In this place, even if you fail the tribulation, you will be able to survive.” Chen Feng’s voice rang out through the starry space within the Bedazzling Star Map.

That was true. They were inside the world created by the pseudo-Divine artifact, capable of blocking the power of Heavenly dao. Thus, even if they were to die inside, it would be possible for them to reincarnate again. Rather, Chen Feng could even take action to interfere with the Heavenly Tribulation to make it as weak as possible. Only, he had no such intentions. The path of cultivation was a very important process. It was something that each cultivator had to undergo and comprehend by themselves.

Upon arriving, the Heavenly Tribulation powers did not immediately descend upon Chen Feng. As for Chen Feng, his face gradually turned solemn. He had a feeling that there was something different about this Heavenly Tribulation.

Did a change happen to the Heavenly Tribulation because I utilized a pseudo-Divine artifact? Chen Feng wondered.

This time, it appeared as though space-time itself had changed. Inside the Bedazzling Star Map, a pseudo-Divine artifact, the speed of the tribulations was faster. Due to that, it did not take long before some of Chen Feng’s magic treasures successfully overcame their tribulations. Transforming into streams of light, they then entered Chen Feng’s body. As for the nine wyrms, they successfully advanced to the mid-level Ascendant Immortal stage. However, after swirling around Chen Feng once, they decided to undergo their tribulations again to advance to the high-level Ascendant Immortal stage. This rate of cultivation caused Chen Feng’s eyes to turn fiery.

At long last, Chen Feng’s Heavenly Tribulation descended as well. Unlike the previous tribulations, this time, a massive fist carrying a heavy atmosphere of Heavenly might descended upon Chen Feng. Everywhere it went, clouds would roil. Booming sounds, rumbling sounds, whistling sounds. They shook the heart and soul and the fist arrived above Chen Feng in the blink of an eye.

“What kind of Heavenly Tribulation is this?” Chen Feng was shocked, but he did not panic. Neither did he show fear. Instead, his body pulsed with power and he fired out a punch as well. Chen Feng’s punch was even stronger and firmer, containing the will and power of fist that he had been cultivating throughout the many years.

Boom!

The two fists collided and Chen Feng’s body flinched. Like a tsunami, waves of fist power assailed Chen Feng’s body, causing it to swiftly fall down after flinching. His figure fell through 50,000 kilometres before he was able to stabilize his position.

Energy streams encased Chen Feng’s body and it would appear that he was not particularly wounded, but there was a look of incredulity on his face.

The fist above him had not disappeared. Instead, it abruptly opened up and its five fingers tore space as a thick arm, brimming with power, emerged. Chen Feng watched on with incredulity as a mighty-looking cultivator, clad in combat armour, appeared before him. The savage aura that this cultivator was emanating made Chen Feng feel suffocated.

A humanoid Heavenly Tribulation! No, that’s not it. This seems different from the previous one. This form and aura resemble the cultivators from Savage World, Chen Feng thought.

When a mark appeared on the cultivator’s glabella, however, Chen Feng immediately determined the identity of this cultivator.

“So, it’s a War Immortal from the Immortal Plane. You guys really think highly of me, but your level is too low,” Chen Feng said.

The War Immortal was a special type of cultivator in the Immortal Plane. Naturally, for a cultivator to receive the title of War Immortal, that person must certainly possess extraordinary combat power. He was far stronger than the average cultivator. A common way of looking at it was that this cultivator was one of the most talented cultivators around.

Every War Immortal was a veteran of a hundred battles with astonishing combat power. They were capable of sweeping up cultivators on the same level as them and even kill off opponents at a higher level. Every one of them was an apex genius in the Immortal Plane. The elites of the elites. When compared to them, the immortal soldiers and generals from the Ministry of Heavenly War and other departments were inferior [1].

If they were at the same level, a War Immortal could sweep the floor with tens if not hundreds of immortal soldiers.

Naturally, Chen Feng was aware of that. He grew wary. At the same time, a ferocious desire to do battle also emerged from his heart. From the earlier exchange, Chen Feng had managed to sense just how formidable this opponent was. Moreover, this opponent was a starter-level Ascendant Immortal. It was not that high compared to Chen Feng. Thus, it was a very suitable opponent for Chen Feng. Of course, Chen Feng will not be utilizing his pseudo-Divine artifacts against him, otherwise not even advancing by another two levels would help the opponent deal with Chen Feng.

“Earthen Immortal?”

When he saw Chen Feng, a puzzled look flashed across the War Immortal’s eyes before he recollected himself. Swinging his hand, he brought out a quaint-looking battle lance, which shone with light.

1 Ministry of Heavenly War is one of the three bodies under the Heavenly Court, the ruling sect in the Immortal Plane.?
