Everlasting

Chapter 1129 Savage

Translator: podao001

Just as the attack was about to land, Chen Feng’s figure abruptly disappeared and the black net missed. Next, a 100-zhang-long sword beam appeared to burn the net down, instantly reducing it to ash. That one sword beam took down over 100 dead souls. With this feat, Chen Feng immediately caught the attention of all the Heavenly Immortals within the fortress. Only then did they realize that there was another expert there.

“Fellow cultivator. We should work together. That is the only way we can unleash a greater display of power.” Chen Feng received a secret vocal transmission from the cultivator with formidable soul power.

“There is no need to say anything. I will do what needs to be done,” Chen Feng replied, firing out a Storm of Sword Beams, which swept up yet another hundred plus dead souls.

A wretched cry rang out as another cultivator from the Six Daos Sword Faction was killed. At that very moment, not even displaying his full might would ensure everyone’s safety. The number of dead souls making their way into the fortress was simply too high. They were practically permeating the very air inside. Chen Feng then turned around and saw that the total number of casualties for the fortress had exceeded a thousand.

On the other hand, the number of dead souls was constantly on the rise. More, dead souls at the Heavenly Immortal stage had begun appearing as well. Due to that, the battle grew even more brutal.

Boom!

The army of dead souls smashed themselves against the fortress again and again, causing cracks to appear on the fortress itself. Seeing that, everyone grew terrified. Should the fortress collapse, this sea of dead souls would drown them all.

Suddenly, a gigantic palm appeared, blotting the sun as it slapped down against the fortress with a force that could shatter the ground and shock the Heavens. Struck by the palm attack, the fortress shook uncontrollably. It seemed as though it would break down at the very next moment. As for the cultivators there, they cried out in dread.

Finally, an opening appeared on the fortress. In but the blink of an eye, a thousand dead souls poured into the fortress. As for the gigantic palm, it raised itself once more and the oppressive atmosphere it exerted caused everyone there to feel suffocated.

“Fellow cultivators at the Heavenly Immortal stage, work together!”

Several auras – containing the power of Heavenly laws – charged into the sky to assail the gigantic palm. Seeing that, Chen Feng snickered. He could sense that the Heavenly Immortals from the Six Daos Sword Faction had chosen to take action as well.

They can’t hold back anymore. Next, all the pores on Chen Feng’s body opened up and tens of thousands of sword beams shot out. This move caused the strength of each sword beam to weaken considerably, but it was meant to be a large area-of-effect move. In the face of the tens of thousands of sword beams, over a hundred dead souls were killed off yet again.

Chen Feng did not take action to attack the gigantic palm outside. He had sensed greater danger somewhere. Thus, after finishing off the surrounding dead souls, Chen Feng utilized the Divine Eyes of Heavenly Insight while the Immortal Slaughter Sword in his hand began stockpiling power.

Due to the gigantic palm’s action of blotting out the sun, the sky had become utterly dark. Suddenly, multi-coloured radiance flashed out again and again and a series of colliding sounds rang out. Finally, minute rays of light began seeping down through the darkness. They had succeeded in destroying the gigantic palm.

The cultivators screamed in jubilation.

On the other hand, Chen Feng’s face turned grim and he promptly vaulted up into the sky. The ground rumbled as a hole appeared there, accompanied by a booming sound. A gigantic blood-red hand then emerged from the ground. The blood energy it radiated enveloped the cultivators nearby and their flesh instantly disappeared, leaving only their skeletons behind.

“What a formidable blood fiend!” Chen Feng was shocked. Black and white streams of energy flew out from his eyes to swiftly wrap around the hand. However, bloody light spread out and the black and white ropes were broken apart.

It had to be said. Chen Feng’s eye technique could even restrain certain mid-level Heavenly Immortals. For it to perform so badly here meant that the blood fiend that was about to emerge was very strong.

Slicing Sword Beams flew forward, swirling around to continuously slice the gigantic, blood-coloured hand. Chen Feng knew that allowing this blood fiend to make its way in would result in a nigh-uncountable number of casualties.

The Heavenly Immortals had already noticed the hand as well. Just as they were about to attack the hand, however, another gigantic hand appeared outside the fortress. Thus, they had to split up, sending a group to help Chen Feng deal with the bloody hand while the other group dealt with the one outside.

Boom!

The bloody hand was shattered apart only to quickly reform itself. In the end, the ground burst open as a blood-coloured pillar of light shot upwards. The terrifying grand dao of blood then spread out. In the face of the grand dao of blood, Chen Feng and the others backed away. One of the Heavenly Immortals, however, was swept into the grand dao of blood. After a moment’s struggle, he fell silent.

The grand dao of blood rapidly converged to form an ordinary-looking cultivator. With of body of flesh and blood, the cultivator was clad in a silvery-white suit of armour. And yet, bloody light kept radiating out from his eyes to reveal that he was a blood fiend with a very high cultivation base. It was such that he could already assume human form.

The blood fiend’s gaze casually swept around and the weaker cultivators were immediately blown up, their bodies turned into clumps of bloody energy. Following that, the blood fiend opened his mouth and sucked all the bloody energy into himself. Even the Heavenly Immortals there were affected. Rather, two of them were instantly left with grievous injuries.

Chen Feng was the only one capable of contending with the blood fiend’s gaze. Inside Chen Feng’s eyes was a churning sea of blood and the grand dao of blood kept assailing his state of mind. If it weren’t for the fact that he had cultivated out the Longevity Flame and Divine Eyes of Heavenly Insight, he would have been incapable of resisting the might of this gaze. It would have killed him.

“Oh, the Divine Eyes of Heavenly Insight! To think that a minor True Immortal would have it. Unbelievable! I am feeling somewhat reluctant to kill you off.” The blood fiend cast a surprised look at Chen Feng, the bloody light within his eyes becoming even stronger.

“You don’t get to kill me. I kill you!” Chen Feng knew that he could no longer continue to hide his strength. This blood fiend alone was strong enough to break the fortress from the inside.

The Blood Mustering Bead slowly flew out from Chen Feng’s hand and the faint bloody light it emanated moved forward to suppress the blood fiend.

“Can you defend against my Blood Mustering Bead?” Chen Feng said.

The Blood Mustering Bead then released a booming sound as it flared out with bloody light to illuminate the entire fortress. Following that, the blood fiend cried out wretchedly.

“A Divine artifact! Impossible! How can it be a Divine artifact?!”

Suppressed by the Blood Mustering Bead, the blood fiend screamed dreadfully. When he sensed his essence power shaking, he immediately thought of running away.

“How can I let such a high-level blood fiend escape?” Chen Feng swiftly rushed forward, continuously using the Blood Mustering Bead to suppress the blood fiend while the Immortal Slaughter Sword in his hand kept slashing down on the blood fiend. Only, this blood fiend was truly formidable. It was unknown just how much blood energy he had absorbed in the past. In the face of Chen Feng’s explosive display of might, he was still able to resist. In fact, even the Blood Mustering Bead was showing signs of failure to suppress the blood fiend.

Just as Chen Feng was about to increase the power behind his attacks, the attacks from several Heavenly Immortals fell upon the blood fiend’s body. Thanks to that, the situation tilted in favour of the Blood Mustering Bead, which flared with light again to immediately collect the blood fiend.

“Thank you!” Chen Feng nodded at the Heavenly Immortals and kept the Blood Mustering Bead. The Immortal Slaughter Sword also flew inside the bead. Although he had collected the blood fiend, completely suppressing the blood fiend would take some time.

And while there were some whose eyes turned red at seeing the Blood Mustering Bead in Chen Feng’s possession, more revealed shock. After they finished off the blood fiend, the pressure on them was seemingly alleviated somewhat. However, they then felt anxious. If one such blood fiend could appear, there could be a second or more. They wondered if they could continue to defend.

“Something unexpected has happened. We should reveal ourselves.” Space around the Six Daos Sword Faction’s battle formation rippled and six Heavenly Immortals appeared at the same time. Swords flew out the moment they appeared and the surrounding dead souls were instantly dealt with.

Two of them nodded towards Chen Feng. It was something of a greeting gesture from them, but Chen Feng merely ignored them, putting on an impassive expression on his face. It was as though he did not see them at all. His actions left the six Heavenly Immortals in a somewhat awkward position. At the same time, they also felt somewhat infuriated. No True Immortal disciple had dared put on such a display of insolence before them in the past.

The gigantic palm outside the fortress had been shattered a few times. However, it would reform itself every time it was destroyed. It gave the Heavenly Immortals quite the headache. Chen Feng knew that these formidable attacks would continue as long as the dead soul sprites were around.

After completely suppressing the collected blood fiend, Chen Feng brought out the Immortal Slaughter Sword and joined the fight again. Every now and again, the yin-type creatures would fall to Chen Feng. Unfortunately, some time was needed for the Blood Mustering Bead to refine the blood fiend. Thus, he was unable to use it for the time being.

Due to that, when two more formidable blood fiends appeared, Chen Feng began feeling troubled as well. Should this be allowed to continue, it would be just a matter of time before the enemy tore down the fortress. Then, not even 1% of the cultivators here would survive.

“Fellow cultivator! Hurry up and use your Divine artifact!”

One of the two blood fiends appeared outside the fortress while the other one appeared inside the fortress, slaughtering everyone the moment they appeared. On the cultivators’ end, they all cast hopeful looks at Chen Feng. However, Chen Feng shook his head, indicating that he could not utilize the Blood Mustering Bead at that moment.

That said, Chen Feng was – brandishing the Immortal Slaughter Sword – holding back one of the blood fiends. It was an intense battle. The blood fiend utilized pure blood-type techniques while Chen Feng’s Blood acupoint spun into action as he utilized the Bloody Netherguide Art to fight the blood fiend.

With that, Chen Feng was able to hold one of the blood fiends down. However, the shockwaves from their battle had still swept up a good number of cultivators.

Without using the secret Longevity techniques and my Divine artifacts, I cannot display even 30% of my full combat power. Looks like my cultivation base is still somewhat weak. Employing the Kirin Steps, Chen Feng evaded the blood fiend’s attacks while the Immortal Slaughter Sword in his hand flew forward like a beam of light to cut down the blood fiend’s arm. But with just a flash of bloody light, the arm recovered.

“I’d like to see just how much blood essence you have!” Chen Feng’s eyes flashed with light and the Aquafire Lance and Heaven Piercing Lance flew forward. The two lances flew under the cover of an illusion to stab into the blood fiend’s body, creating two bloody holes there.

Next, Chen Feng leapt forward to appear before the blood fiend. A punch smashed the blood fiend down the ground and the Chaos Chain shot out from Chen Feng’s body to firmly tie up the blood fiend.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Chaos Chain was only a pseudo-Divine artifact. Thus, the furious struggling actions from the blood fiend caused a series of popping sounds to ring out from it. It would appear that the Chaos Chain would soon break apart.

Sou!

The Divine Sun Needle abruptly flashed out. It was as though a sun had been compressed before being unleashed. And so, the needle pierced through the blood fiend’s body. Immediately, its body deflated and its strength plummeted. Taking advantage of its state, Chen Feng then pasted 18 talismans on it to suppress it before collecting it into the Blood Mustering Bead as well.

Having managed to deal with two blood fiends at the Heavenly Immortal stage, Chen Feng felt satisfied. Turning around, he saw that the others had joined forces to successfully kill off the blood fiend outside.

Two hours later, the wave of dead souls began weakening. In the end, they all retreated, leaving behind a desolate land and damaged, bloodstained fortresses.

Note: Chen Feng found the Bloody Netherguide Art in Chapter 517 inside the Blood Mustering Bead.
