Chapter 1104 Bead of Mountains and Rivers

Translator: podao001

How could those cultivators hope to compete against Chen Feng in terms of speed? Swiftly, Chen Feng pulled away from them. Following that, the cultivators from the Celestial Longevity Plane arrived. Power burst out in their wake and the cultivators from the Iron Blood Alliance screamed as they died.

Sigh! The Iron Blood Alliance sure is unlucky. Chen Feng sighed. However, he did not think too much about it. His own survival was the number one priority here.

“Cultivators from the Celestial Longevity Plane, why did you come cause trouble for our Iron Blood Alliance?” Suddenly, a voice emerged from the ground to echo through the surrounding space. Instantly, Chen Feng, who was in the midst of flying away, felt his body becoming restrained.

Excellent! An expert has finally appeared. Chen Feng was not shocked. Instead, he grew delighted. The power that he had been brewing for a long time burst out from within him and the Longevity Wings promptly spread out to a length of hundreds of li, seemingly encompassing the world. Next, Chen Feng disappeared from sight. It was as though he had simply teleported away.

“Some minor Heavenly Immortals dare interfere in our Celestial Longevity Plane’s affairs? You don’t know the meaning of death! Hurry up and scram!”

The battle ended as quickly as it began. The hidden experts from the Iron Blood Alliance were blown up. Even so, Chen Feng’s objective had been met. They had delayed the pursuers for a moment. After finishing off the hidden experts, the pursuers then realized that they had lost track of Chen Feng.

“This is bad! That Chen Feng possesses the Longevity Tower. If he chooses to hide himself, it will be hard to find him.”

“It is precisely because he possesses the Longevity Tower that we will be able to find him. Guys, use the secret techniques to sense the Longevity Tower.”

Soon, however, the faces of the pursuers sank. They found that they had utterly lost track of both Chen Feng and the Longevity Tower’s auras.

“No matter what, Chen Feng could not have run far. Everyone, spread out and do your best to find him! We cannot let him run away this time!”

And so, the cultivators from the Celestial Longevity Plane disappeared. As for the Iron Blood Alliance, they were left in a miserable state. Their opponents, the Mountains and Rivers Alliance, made use of the opportunity to attack them. Having lost their high-ranking members, the Iron Blood Alliance had to retreat, again and again. As someone who knew what happened, Xue Luosha cursed Chen Feng. This major loss was all Chen Feng’s fault.

No, I cannot simply let this slide. I must have that fellow compensate us for our losses! Due to the loss of so many high-ranking members of the Iron Blood Alliance, Xue Luosha’s position rose again. It was already very close to the highest position in the Iron Blood Alliance.

Chen Feng actually did not flee far away. Rather, he had chosen to enter the Mountains and Rivers Alliance’s territory.

Strength wise, the Mountains and Rivers Alliance and Iron Blood Alliance were almost equal. As such, hiding there should not have been enough to help Chen Feng evade his pursuers. However, the Mountains and Rivers Alliance possessed a rather special magic treasure, the Bead of Mountains and Rivers. While it was only a Divine artifact, Chen Feng was able to evade his pursuers’ scanning powers by hiding within it.

“Tower, have you ever ended up in such a miserable situation before?” Chen Feng asked, chuckling.

“A few times,” Tower said indifferently.

“These small fries are not even worthy of my eyes. You deal with it.”

“Me? Easier said than done.” Chen Feng rolled his eyes.

“Even the weakest amongst them is a mid-level Heavenly Immortal. More, these are mid-level Heavenly Immortals from the Celestial Longevity Plane. I can’t even defeat them in a one-on-one battle.”

“As I am right now, I have no way to face them all head on. Not unless I become a notch stronger. Still, the Immortal Plane is a very big place. If we can’t beat them, we can just book it. Besides, they are from the Celestial Longevity Plane. They will be innately suppressed when facing us. We might be able to come up with some plan,” Tower said, snickering.

“A plan? Maybe if there are more forces around here. But where? Forget it? We should just behave ourselves and hide here for a while.” Chen Feng quietly hid himself within the Bead of Mountains and Rivers. Although this Divine artifact contained a vast power of mountains and rivers, it failed to detect Chen Feng’s existence. On the contrary, by utilizing a secret technique, Chen Feng was able to sneakily absorb the Divine artifact’s essence.

This time, he had caused problems for the Iron Blood Alliance. Thinking about Xue Luosha, Chen Feng decided to compensate the Iron Blood Alliance. And that method of compensation would be to exhaust some of the Mountains and Rivers Alliance’s power.

It was unknown just how long had passed, but as Chen Feng was happily devouring the Divine artifact’s power, the Bead of Mountains and Rivers suddenly shook and a concentrated power of mountains and rivers surged forth. Seeing that secretly shocked Chen Feng.

In the beginning, Chen Feng had assumed that the other party had found him, but it did not take long before he found out that it was because someone was mobilizing the Bead of Mountains and Rivers for battle.

They’re probably fighting the Iron Blood Alliance. This is a good chance! Chen Feng stopped hiding himself and his soul flame spread out. It was akin to a star blowing up and the resulting radiance illuminated the surrounding power of mountains and rivers.

“Tower, would you like to eat this Divine artifact?” Chen Feng asked, smiling.

“Something is better than nothing,” Tower replied.

“Only, by doing so, our pursuers will probably be lured over again.” Chen Feng sighed, but he continued, utilizing the Heavengulping Absorption Technique. In order to devour a Divine artifact, Chen Feng himself was going all out. He knew that he could not go on hiding like this. Improving his strength was what he needed to do.

Contending against the Bead of Mountains and Rivers was the Iron Blood Alliance’s Iron Blood War Flag. Both were Divine artifacts on the same level. Normally, both parties would be equally matched. At that very moment, however, there were only three Heavenly Immortals empowering the Iron Blood War Flag, Xue Luosha included. On the other hand, there was a total of 10 Heavenly Immortals empowering the Bead of Mountains and Rivers. Due to that, it was just a matter of time before the Iron Blood Alliance faced defeat.

“Is your Iron Blood Alliance still not going to surrender? Joining our Mountains and Rivers Alliance is the best option for you.”

“Join you? You sure know how to paint a pretty picture. The way I see it, you fellows just want to annex us.”

“That’s right! In the past, you could have joined us. But now, only annexation awaits you. The situation is already very clear to all. Even if you fellows don’t care about yourselves, you should think about the tens of millions of cultivators from your Iron Blood Alliance. Or do you want us to kill them all?”

The three on the Iron Blood Alliance’s side, the cultivator with a scholarly look, Xue Luosha and the other cultivator said nothing. They could only sigh to themselves. Their opponents’ words were correct. Even if the three of them were to be defeated here, they would still have no issues running away. But that meant abandoning the many members and subordinates of the Iron Blood Alliance.

Is this the day that our Iron Blood Alliance fall apart? The three of them felt a terrible pressure. The Iron Blood Alliance had existed for millions of years now. And while it was not some high-tier force, they had worked hard to manage it. Faced with the thought that it would fall, they could not stop feeling resentful towards those cultivators who brought this calamity down on them.

“Forget it. Now that it’s come to this, we can only accept. Becoming part of the Mountains and Rivers Alliance is indeed the best choice.” The scholar guy sighed. As for Xue Luosha, bloody light sprayed out from her eyes as she cursed Chen Feng inwardly. Though, she could not openly say anything about it.

Suddenly, the Bead of Mountains and Rivers that was suppressing the Iron Blood War Flag shook in a peculiar manner. At the same time, the light coming from it flickered and dimmed. Even a fool could tell that something was wrong with it.

“What happened?” The faces of the cultivators from the Mountains and Rivers Alliance sank. Only then did they discover that their sect guardian treasure had become terribly weak. For some unknown reason, much of its power of mountains and rivers had disappeared.

“This!”

Xue Luosha’s team grew surprised. When they sensed the pressure on them lessening, they finally realized that the winds of change had come.

“Xue Luosha, it’s been a while. Unexpectedly, you managed to cultivate up to the Heavenly Immortal stage.” As Xue Luosha was feeling shocked, she suddenly received a secret vocal transmission from Chen Feng.

“It’s you!” Instantly, comprehension dawned on Xue Luosha. This was Chen Feng’s handiwork.

“You’re hiding inside the Bead of Mountains and Rivers?”

“Yes. Back then, your Iron Blood Alliance had to face an unexpected calamity because of me. No matter what, I will have to give you fellows some compensation,” Chen Feng replied with a chuckle.

“The way I see it, you’re just aiming for the Divine artifact. Still, the ones pursuing you back then are very strong. Are you not afraid that this will expose your whereabouts?”

“Do you want me to be discovered?”

“Of course. If it weren’t for you, our Iron Blood Alliance would not have suffered from such a serious loss.

“Forget it. If it weren’t for me, you would not have been able to attain your current position. How about it? Do you want me to help you kill off the other two? That way, you can reign over the Iron Blood Alliance.”

“You should take care of your own problems first.”

As Chen Feng and Xue Luosha exchanged words in secrecy, the Bead of Mountains and Rivers began shrinking in size. And no matter how the ten Heavenly Immortals tried to empower it, they failed to do anything.

“What’s going on? Just what on earth is going on here?!” No matter how hard they racked their minds, they simply could not figure out what was happening.

And so, the Bead of Mountains and Rivers disappeared completely, devoured by the Longevity Tower.

“Chance!”

The three Heavenly Immortals from the Iron Blood Alliance pounced on this opening, empowering their Iron Blood War Flag to attack. Instantly, several of the cultivators from the Mountains and Rivers Alliance were pummelled to the point of spraying out blood.

“Let’s go!”

“Iron Blood Alliance! Don’t get too full of yourselves! Just you wait until we borrow a Divine artifact over. That day will be your doomsday!” Before leaving, the cultivators from the Mountains and Rivers Alliance did not forget to leave some threats.

“Chen Feng, where did you go?” Xue Luosha sent out a secret vocal transmission.

“I need to go shake off my own problems. If there is a chance, let’s meet again.” Chen Feng’s reply floated towards her and there was no way to tell where he was anymore.

For some unknown reason, after knowing that Chen Feng had left, Xue Luosha found herself feeling somewhat lost.

Not long after devouring the Bead of Mountains and Rivers, Chen Feng sensed a formidable aura locking down on his position. Although there was still a great distance between the two of them, Chen Feng knew that the other party had found him.

Chen Feng also knew that this was a chance. Only one of his pursuers had locked down on his position. Thus, he could risk it.

The moment this cultivator locked down on Chen Feng’s aura, Chen Feng charged towards him as fast as he could, the Longevity Tower bursting outwards. Without so much as a pause, the Longevity Tower attacked the sword-wielding cultivator.

“Come! Chen Feng, are you committing suicide here?” Seeing Chen Feng charge towards him, the young cultivator felt an impulse to whoop in joy. To think that he would be the one to earn the credit for this. How lucky!

Immediately, however, his face sank sharply. He was actually incapable of stopping the suppressive power of the Longevity Tower. He became fearful and screamed.

Boom!

The Longevity Tower released a pulse of power and the young cultivator felt as though he was struck by lightning. A high number of cracks spread out across his body. Next, Chen Feng arrived to land a heavy punch upon him. Bloody light burst forth as the young cultivator blew up, becoming a mist of blood. After that, the Longevity Tower exerted a suction force to devour the remains of the young cultivator before he could reform his body.

Having entering the Longevity Tower, the young cultivator could forget about ever escaping. Chen Feng’s figure then flashed to disappear from sight. Likewise, the Longevity Tower also flashed to disappear into thin air.

After several breaths’ worth of time, a few cultivators arrived. Light shone out from the eyes of one and the images of the earlier battle was replayed.
