Chapter 826 East Dragon Island Under Attack

Translator: podao001

“This return trip sure was fast,” Chen Feng said smilingly, feeling the familiar aura around him.

“Of course. I have already recovered to the Dao artefact tier. Even suppressing Immortal artefacts will not be an issue for me, let alone a minor thing like jumping through space,” Tower replied indifferently. However, the cheeky look in his eyes betrayed the smug feeling within him.

In the past, even the act of collecting the Heaven Piercing Lance and Netherbone Lance had taken Tower a great deal of effort. At present, however, Tower would have a much easier time dealing with low-grade Immortal artefacts.

Flying high up into the sky, Chen Feng spread his divine sense outwards, extending it through a radius of 5,000 kilometres before stopping.

Watersurge City. What a coincidence! This place is not too far away from East Dragon Island. Next, Chen Feng’s figure flashed, disappearing from the sky to silently re-appear on the ground.

After advancing to the mid-level Human Immortal stage, Chen Feng’s strength did not simply rose over ten times. Even his vitality had undergone a transformative improvement.

Despite not flying, Chen Feng was moving on the ground at an unbelievable speed. Every step he took would bring him over 100 zhang into the distance. Even though he appeared to be simply walking at a regular pace, one blink’s worth of time was all it took for him to cover a distance of over 50 kilometres.

Cultivators beneath the Human Immortal stage were simply incapable of detecting Chen Feng’s existence.

Even when making his way into a bustling city, Chen Feng was like a gust of wind. And yet, the actions of the tens of thousands of people within the entire city could not escape Chen Feng’s senses. His divine sense had improved to a terrifying level.

Chen Feng had explored space and witnessed the fight between Ascendant Immortals. Due to that, the average Human Immortals had become nothing in his eyes, let alone the average cultivators who had yet to even reach the Human Immortal stage and ordinary humans.

Chen Feng moved quickly. Even so, getting to East Dragon Island had still taken him several days. Before entering the ocean region, however, Chen Feng sensed energy fluctuations spreading out through the air.

“Eh? There are sounds of battle. Did something happen while I was away? Who dares come make trouble in my territory?

“They have a death wish.”

Killing intent instantly flashed across Chen Feng’s eyes. Kicking the ground, his figure leapt up before flashing a few times through the air to disappear from sight.

At that very moment, a thick layer of water barrier was encasing East Dragon Island. Outside the water barrier was a group of cultivators who did their best to attack the barrier. Even so, the interior of East Dragon Island had already fallen into a state of chaos. Cultivators and ocean yaos were fighting one another everywhere.

The strongest ones on East Dragon Island’s side were only four ocean yao guards at the mid-level Human Immortal stage. Jian Xiaotian and Ye Ziming were directing the defence of East Dragon Island.

Although the water barrier defending East Dragon Island had not fallen, things were not looking too good for East Dragon Island. Even those from the Xu Family branch had to come forward and help.

“Jue Wushen! Like Chen Feng, you all are also students of Absolute Academy. And yet, you gathered up so many cultivators to besiege East Dragon Island? Aren’t you going too far here?” Jian Xiaotian shouted.

Jian Xiaotian had only just advanced to the Human Immortal stage not too long ago. Add his spiritual body to the equation, he could put up a fight against a starter-level Human Immortal for quite some time. However, in the face of a pinnacle genius like Jue Wushen, he was incapable of holding on for long. Not to mention, Jue Wushen was a mid-level Human Immortal. If it weren’t for the magic array defending East Dragon Island, Jue Wushen and his group would have charged in and killed everyone on the island.

Even so, Jian Xiaotian’s body was already covered with blood. As for Ye Ziming, he was brandishing a sword to fight against two Human Immortals.

At that very moment, there were over 100 enemy Sky Human stage cultivators and eight enemy Human Immortals within East Dragon Island. These enemies had snuck into East Dragon Island beforehand. They were not students from Absolute Academy. Rather, they were a bunch of brigands that Jue Wushen had gathered up from the Absolute Mountain Range.

As Jue Wushen was leading his men to attack East Dragon Island, those men had suddenly stirred up chaos within the island. Thankfully, there was a high number of restrictive arrays on the island. Additionally, there was also a considerable number of ocean yao guards stationed there. With time, killing off the cultivators would not have been an issue.

At that very moment, the most critical issue facing them were Jue Wushen and the men with him who were attacking the water barrier from the outside. Most of them were the elite Human Immortals from Absolute Academy. In fact, a high number of them were mid-level Human Immortals. These fellows possessed great power and formidable magic treasures. With enough time, they would surely be able to break through the water barrier protecting East Dragon Island.

Hearing Jian Xiaotian’s words, Jue Wushen suddenly laughed loudly. “Who do you think you are? Tell Chen Feng to come out! I want nothing more than to kill him! A minor island thinks it can stop us? Once we break the water barrier, we’ll kill off everyone on this island!”

“If you know what’s good for you, hurry up and come out. Kowtow and beg for mercy and we might choose to spare your lives!”

“Nonsense! How shameless!” Ye Ziming, who was in the midst of fighting the enemies, swore loudly.

“You guys know damned well that Chen Feng is not here. That is why you fellows dare to come attack. If Chen Feng is here, even if you fellows have eight more set of balls on you, you would not have it in you to come attack this island! To be saying those words now, just how shameless are you? To think that someone of this character can be allowed to enter Absolute Academy. Looks like I had been thinking too highly of Absolute Academy!”

Hearing Ye Ziming’s rebuke, the faces of Jue Wushen and the others alternated between flushed and livid. Their actions were indeed that of those plundering the burning house. If it weren’t for the fact that there was enmity between them and Chen Feng, they would not have chosen to attack East Dragon Island.

However, it also strengthened Jue Wushen’s resolve to take down East Dragon Island. That way, he would be able to save his reputation somewhat. Should he fail to take down East Dragon Island, his reputation would fall into the gutter. He would be incapable of raising his head anywhere in the Central Plains’ world of cultivation, let alone in the Absolute Mountain Range.

“Enough nonsense! We’re here to level your entire East Dragon Island!” Jue Wushen said, gritting his teeth. Waving his hand, he brought out a massive ***. Surprisingly, it was a Dao artefact. The *** shone with golden light. Next, like a sun, it smashed heavily against the water barrier [1].

The water barrier shook and the resulting shockwaves caused many of the ocean yao guards on the island to fall the ground, dizzy. Even Jian Xiaotian’s face had turned pale from the shockwaves.

The might of a Dao artefact was simply too great. It was not something that Human Immortals could hope to fend against.

“Lan Hai, attack! Break open the water barrier in one go! We do not have much time here. If the Demon Kings return, all we’ve done would have been for nothing,” Jue Wushen said, turning towards Lan Hai.

“Yes. Let’s go all out!” Lan Hai said, bringing out a water talisman brimming with the power of water. Surprisingly, it was also a Dao artefact.

“The Dao-tier Water Mustering Talisman. Ha ha ha! Since everyone is bringing out their treasures, I will not be holding back as well!” Dao Jun said as he brought out a blade. Although the blade was only a Sacred artefact, there were grand dao powers sealed within it. By releasing the seal, the blade would possess the might of a Dao artefact.

They all utilized their Dao artefacts to fire out formidable attacks. In the face of the attacks, the water barrier protecting East Dragon Island grew increasingly thin. It was clear that the water barrier would not be able to hold on for much longer. As for the cultivators and ocean yao guards in East Dragon Island, many of them had been knocked unconscious by the shockwaves from the attacks.

“Use the teleportation array to leave!” Jian Xiaotian ordered.

Soon, however, Jian Xiaotian was informed that the teleportation array could not be activated.

“It’s useless! We have already utilized a Dao artefact to seal up void space. It doesn’t matter if your island has a large-scale teleportation array. If you recklessly try to jump through space, you will be sent into the endless void instead!” Seeing the panicked look on the faces of the cultivators from East Dragon Island, Jue Wushen laughed joyfully.

“There’s no other option. We can only fight to the very end!” Jian Xiaotian said, gnashing his teeth.

“Don’t worry. Later on, I will join forces with my clan members to perform a void teleportation technique. We should be able to send a batch of people out that way,” Ye Ziming said.

“No, if we leave, we’ll leave together! If we stay, we’ll stay together!” Jian Xiaotian was quick to refuse.

“We should save as many as we can. There is no need for unnecessary deaths,” Xu Lianping, from the Xu Clan branch, said.

“Stop arguing! None of you will be able to leave!”

“Break!”

Finally, the water barrier protecting East Dragon Island was shattered apart and Jue Wushen strutted his way into the island.

“Sigh! Looks like we can only wait for reinforcements.”

“Humph! If it weren’t for the far ocean yaos coming together to attack us, would these people dare come?”

“Kill as many of them as we can!”

“Now that it’s come to this, are you fellows still not going to kneel?” shouted Jue Wushen, who kicked one of the unconscious ocean yao guards on the ground. The ocean yao guard’s body was shattered into minced meat even as it flew through the air.

“Attack!”

Jian Xiaotian and Ye Ziming attacked with all their might. However, before they could even approach Jue Wushen, a slap from Jue Wushen sent them all flying instead.

“Too weak! Kid, you are a disciple of Heavenly Sword Faction, no? Humph! If you had left earlier, I could have spared your life. Now, you will die here,” Jue Wushen said, sneering at Jian Xiaotian.

“Really? You dare kill me?” Jian Xiaotian said with a derisive smile.

“Why not? Would a minor Heavenly Sword Faction dare trouble our Absolute Academy? Very well, then. I will kill you first,” Jue Wushen said, brandishing the *** his hand to attack Jian Xiaotian.

“Is that right? If you dare attack, I will kill you first!” Suddenly, a thunderous voice reverberated outwards, growing stronger and stronger as it did. In the end, it caused the entire sky to shake.

“Who?” Sensing the formidable power within the voice, the eyes of Jue Wushen and the others widened as they grew wary.

Sou!

A blur appeared before their eyes and they saw Chen Feng. With a wave of his hand, Chen Feng gathered Jian Xiaotian and the others up and sent them a distance away.

Chen Feng then waved his hand again and the Dawnsource Crystal Water flowed out, transforming into vapour before enveloping Jian Xiaotian and the others.

“You guys, focus on healing your wounds. Leave the rest to me,” Chen Feng said, killing energy radiating out from his figure. Although there was an indifferent look on his face, his pair of eyes had begun spraying out sparks.

“Chen Feng! You actually came back!” When Jue Wushen saw Chen Feng, a look of fear reflexively appeared across his eyes. However, it quickly turned to a look of savagery.

Not too long ago, he had received news that Chen Feng, Lan Ling and some others had gone to Planet Voidsoul for an adventure. However, something unexpected happened to Planet Voidsoul and all of the cultivators there except for Chen Feng had returned. Hearing that, Jue Wushen had assumed that Chen Feng had died on Planet Voidsoul.

As for this East Dragon Island, it was a paradise for cultivators. Countless people would cast predatory eyes upon this island. Thus, making use of the opportunity provided by the attack from the ocean forces, Jue Wushen and the others decided to attack East Dragon Island.
