Chapter 1059 Entering the Treasure Zone

Translator: podao001

What a formidable grand dao of ice! Chen Feng thought to himself as a clump of starlight exploded all of a sudden. Heat gushed forth to instantly melt away the surrounding ice-sealed space.

A star burned brightly. The Bedazzling Star Map could easily release a solar power capable of burning up everything.

On the other hand, True Immortal Soulboost had already pierced the opponent’s ice palm with his spear. At the same time, he also fired out a series of attacks at his opponent. Perhaps it was due to the stimulation from the Longevity Scripture, but True Immortal Soulboost was giving it his all for this.

This opponent was a mid-level True Immortal from the Icy Frost Order. He had made a highly imperious entrance earlier. However, after just one confrontation, he ended up in an unfavourable position. After exchanging a few more blows, he began losing. Infuriated, he then attempted to back away. But the spear in True Immortal Soulboost’s hand was a pseudo-Divine artifact with formidable offensive powers and it kept attacking to pierce his body.

Just as True Immortal Soulboost was thinking of finishing off his opponent in one fell swoop, space broke open again as more cultivators arrived.

A 1,000-zhang-long sword broke its way out from space to block True Immortal Soulboost’s attack, allowing the mid-level True Immortal from the Icy Frost Order to escape from his perilous position.

“A mid-level True Immortal from the Heavenly Sword Order.” Chen Feng’s expression flickered. He knew then that trouble had come, but that was not all. Two more mid-level True Immortals arrived. They were from the Heart Seizer Faction and Ardent Flame Order respectively.

The momentum of four mid-level True Immortals was simply too formidable. The coercive atmosphere of majesty emanating from their bodies alone gave off the feeling of the unstoppable.

“Young Master, against four of them, I am not confident.” True Immortal Soulboost quickly sent a secret vocal transmission over.

“No worries, I can teach you a secret technique.”

Following that, True Immortal Soulboost quickly sensed a talisman appearing within his sea of wisdom. In addition, there was also some text there.

It was the cultivation method for the Soul Subduing Mantra.

The Soul Subduing Mantra! True Immortal Soulboost became so excited that he began trembling. This was a secret technique that he would constantly yearn for. Unfortunately, his status was not high enough while he was also not strong enough. Obtaining such a high-levelled secret technique was practically an impossibility for him. The only exception would be for him to possess Heaven-defying luck and have a member from the Imperial family favour him.

“This is the Soul Subduing Talisman from the Soul Subduing Mantra. Given your cultivation level, I believe it will not take you long to comprehend it.” Chen Feng’s voice rang out once more.

Weng!

As expected, True Immortal Soulboost’s eyes shone and the Soul Subduing Talisman in his sea of wisdom abruptly flared with light, transforming into a palpable atmosphere of pressure, which then spread out from his body. In response, the faces of the four mid-level True Immortals standing opposite him fell. They had sensed great danger coming from True Immortal Soulboost’s body. While it may be possible for them to kill off True Immortal Soulboost, it would very likely end in mutual destruction.

True Immortal Soulboost’s cultivation level was simply far greater compared to Chen Feng’s cultivation level. Thus, the power of the Soul Subduing Mantra that he was unleashing was naturally also far greater.

“Are you fellows thinking of bullying others through sheer numbers?” True Immortal Soulboost said coolly. At that very moment, the aura that True Immortal Soulboost was emanating contained an even greater degree of mystery and danger.

“Ha ha ha ha! Since you fellows dare not attack, allow me!” A wild voice suddenly emerged from a crescent moon. Slicing space, the crescent moon appeared before True Immortal Soulboost in the blink of an eye.

“Subdue!”

In the face of this attack, True Immortal Soulboost’s eyes promptly flashed and the Soul Subduing Talisman flew out from his body. It rapidly expanded to assail the world and everywhere it went, space would become still. When the crescent moon arrived before True Immortal Soulboost, it halted. Then, it began disintegrating.

Oh, no!

The four mid-level True Immortals only had enough time to process that thought before their cognitive abilities froze up.

Sou!

The spear in True Immortal Soulboost’s hand abruptly stabbed forward to create a big hole within space. Next, a cultivator in purple robes screamed as he fell down from the hole. His aura rapidly faded away as his life left him.

When the four mid-level True Immortals finally recovered, they all broke into a cold sweat. They backed away, a look of horror on their faces. They looked at the slain cultivator from the Sun Moon Faction before exchanging glances, not knowing what to say about this.

If the other party’s spear had attacked them earlier, would they end up like the poor sod?

What kind of secret technique was that? It was actually capable of freezing both space and soul, making it so that they were incapable of resisting for a brief moment.

It may be just a brief moment, but at their level, a brief moment was enough to kill them.

While dread assailed the four mid-level True Immortals, True Immortal Soulboost felt his emotions churning. To think that the Soul Subduing Mantra could be so formidable. By fully mastering this secret technique, he could even defend against a high-level True Immortal. Due to that, the vexed feelings that True Immortal Soulboost had felt from coming under Chen Feng’s control grew faded. More, a hidden thought had appeared within his mind. He wanted to perform well and ingratiate himself with Chen Feng. That way, he will be able to obtain even more of the secret techniques recorded in the Longevity Scripture.

“Fellows, the way I see it, we should cooperate in harmony. We are all here in search of serendipity. Why fight each other? Even though you fellows have numbers, if a fight were to break out, it will just result in a mutually-destructive ending. Why bother?” Chen Feng said.

“I don’t believe you can keep on using this secret technique,” one of the opposing cultivators said, killing intent rising from him.

“If so, you can give it a try. Killing off a few of you is not an issue for me.” True Immortal Soulboost was actually hoping that they other party would continue to fight. That way, he would be able to witness the power of the Soul Subduing Mantra. Besides, should another critical moment appear, he may end up receiving yet another secret technique from the Longevity Scripture.

With True Immortal Soulboost there to defend him, Chen Feng was able to relax and focus on devouring the yin yang energy. As the two sides were confronting each other, the Yin Yang Tree had already risen to a height of nearly 100,000 zhang. Flowers bloomed and Yin Yang Fruits grew.

In that short moment, the sapling of the Yin Yang Tree had undergone a world-shaking transformation.

Perhaps it was because the Yin Yang Tree had devoured too much yin yang energy, but the extra-terrestrial creature within the treasure zone was finally incapable of holding back. In the end, it unleashed a series of attacks against Chen Feng.

Tentacles containing the grand dao of yin and yang turned the lands upside down, stirring space to bring about chaos. The grand dao of yin and yang was one of the best amongst the many grand daos. Thus, seeing this ferocious attack levelled at Chen Feng, everyone there believed that Chen Feng would be incapable of blocking it.

Chen Feng, on the other hand, did choose to simply take it head on. The Primary Spirit Diagram of First Origin and Bedazzling Star Map created two thick walls at the same time to block the ferocious attack.

The most important matter here was the growth of the Yin Yang Tree. If it weren’t for the fact that the extra-terrestrial creature within the Yin Yang Treasure Zone was difficult to deal with, Chen Feng would have charged in long ago. In his opinion, the combined might of two pseudo-Divine artifacts should be enough to stop the attacks from the extra-terrestrial creature.

The result was as Chen Feng had expected. Only, there was a minor discrepancy. He successfully blocked the attacks, but was only barely able to do so. Additionally, the pressure that Chen Feng was receiving from the attacks was terribly massive.

“The grand dao of yin and yang is truly formidable. By fusing it with the attacks, the other party could increase the power behind the attacks several folds.” Even though Chen Feng had yet to even see how the extra-terrestrial creature looked like, he was already almost incapable of holding on.

“The interior of this treasure zone must surely possess Heaven-defying treasures. Why else would the extra-terrestrial creature choose to stand guard inside and not come out? Rather than fight one another to the point of mutual destruction, why don’t we join forces and enter. Kill the extra-terrestrial creature and obtain the treasures,” True Immortal Soulboost suggested, a smile on his face.

“Won’t that just benefit you fellows?” The mid-level True Immortal from the Icy Frost Order said icily as he regarded Chen Feng.

“The situation before us is very clear. I believe that none of you are fools. As to what your choices may be, that will depend on you all. If you want a fight, we who came from the Death Dimension will not shirk from it,” True Immortal Soulboost said.

“Very well. Let’s join forces then.”

Upon finishing up their negotiations, all five mid-level True Immortals entered the Yin Yang Treasure Zone together. It did not take long before the sounds of battle rang out and the pressure on Chen Feng lessened. The power of yin and yang roiling about within the treasure zone roiled with greater ferocity.

Sou! Sou!

The hundred plus starter-level True Immortals from the Seven Orders and Six Factions also entered. With their seniors taking the lead, they could now make use of the opportunity to seize the treasures inside.

In order to devour even more power of yin and yang, Chen Feng also entered the Yin Yang Treasure Zone. Stepping inside felt like entering an ocean, one composed of the power of yin and yang.

The Yin and Yang acupoints within him also began to operate furiously and while the rate at which they were absorbing the power of yin and yang was no match for the Yin Yang Tree, they formed two rapidly-spinning vortexes.

“The yin yang energy here is very concentrated. Anyone can cultivate in here.” Huo Yunlong’s body felt very comfortable there.

“Hopefully, there will be some treasures inside,” Premier Golden Earth said with a chuckle.

“Treasures also means danger. Be careful.” Chen Feng was not too interested in the treasures inside. He was more interested in the yin yang energy there.

The Longevity Tower shook slightly and a passageway opened out of nowhere and the yin yang energy there surged inside. In just the blink of an eye, the yin yang energy around them had disappeared, leaving an empty, wide space.

The rate at which the Longevity Tower was absorbing the yin yang energy far surpassed that of the Yin Yang Tree. Even though this Yin Yang Treasure Zone was comparable to a world, its yin yang energy was still not enough to keep up with the Longevity Tower’s rate of absorption.

Due to the decrease in the yin yang energy, everything gradually became clearer. They saw the many cultivators besieging a mountainous extra-terrestrial creature.

After entering the Yin Yang Treasure Zone, the cultivators from the Seven Orders and Six Factions had instantly besieged this extra-terrestrial creature. Chen Feng could see that this extra-terrestrial creature’s body contained the power of yin and yang. Additionally, it was already advancing upon its own grand dao. It could create tentacles at will to attack. With a strength that was close to that of a high-level True Immortal, it was indeed something of an overlord.

At that very moment, however, it was facing the combined siege of so many cultivators. Due to that, many of its tentacles were broken and the wounds on its body became increasingly severe. Its fate was already sealed.

Huo Yunlong and Premier Golden Earth rushed forward to join the siege. It did not take long before a world-shaking boom rang out as the extra-terrestrial creature was blown apart, its body split amongst all the cultivators there.

Chen Feng ignored it as he focused on furiously devouring the surrounding yin yang energy.

Some of the cultivators who entered were also doing the same thing as Chen Feng, but more chose to search around. They believed that there must be some treasures here.

“Although these spiritual trees are not authentic Yin Yang Trees, they also contain the power of yin and yang. Good items. I’ll take them.”

“I saw this forest first! Don’t you fellows be snatching it from me.”

“To think that there would actually be a Yin Yang Spirit Vein here. It can produce at least a hundred billion Yin Yang spirit stones. No wonder the yin yang energy here is so thick!”

“Our Five Elements Order is the one that discovered this spirit stone mine. Fellows, go back.”

“Horseshit! Look at how big this spirit stone mine is. Your Five Elements Order cannot stomach it on your own. Splitting it equally is the best option here.”

After killing off the extra-terrestrial creature, the situation turned chaotic. There were simply too many treasures there. Rare spiritual herbs, spiritual trees, spirit stone mines and rivers. They would even fight one another over an inch of soil.

One massive spirit stone mine after another was discovered and the mid-level True Immortals who first entered found themselves incapable of controlling themselves anymore. Every single one of the spirit stone mines was enough to establish a sect. Naturally, using them for cultivation was even better.
