Chapter 963 Undying Talisman

Translator: podao001

The Longevity Tower did not grow bigger. It remained small, with a height of only one chi. However, its descent gave off the feeling of a mountain bearing down on those beneath it.

Kacha! Kacha! Kacha!

The armour on three cultivators burst and they began bleeding from their seven orifices. In the face of the pressure brought forth by the Longevity Tower, the power of the Divine artifact on their bodies instantly dissipated. Due to that, it became even harder to hold on. Although they were already going all out, their bodies kept shrinking.

“A bunch of morons!” Chen Feng scoffed.

The Longevity Tower had devoured a high-grade Immortal artifact in the past. In recent years, it had been in a constant state of slumber, where it continuously refined, absorbed and fused with the Immortal artifact. While the Longevity Tower remained at the normal Immortal tier, the offensive power that it was capable of unleashing was not something that could be gauged with common sense.

With the exception of helping others grow stronger, the Longevity Tower had rarely taken action lately. Even so, Chen Feng, who had a close connection with it, had a faint idea of how strong the Longevity Tower was.

At the very least, these three starter-level Ascendant Immortals who were relying on the support of their Divine artifact would not be able to defend against the Longevity Tower. As expected, with just one attack, the three cultivators were grievously wounded.

“Kill the kid first! Then, the Longevity Tower will become an ownerless object!” Heavenly Premier Ninelink and Heavenly Premier Purple Glory charged towards Chen Feng at the same time.

Hearing that, Chen Feng laughed to himself. Even some of the better Sacred artifacts were capable of giving birth to artifact spirits, let alone Immortal artifacts. In this case, the Longevity Tower was actually not an Immortal artifact, but a Divine artifact. From certain perspectives, a magic treasure of this level was no different from human cultivators. Rather, it was even superior to human cultivators. Even if Chen Feng were to die, the Longevity Tower would be able to simply leave whenever it wished to. Either that or do battle against its opponents with its own power.

In truth, upon reaching the Immortal tier, magic treasures would have become something more than just magic treasures.

If the Longevity Tower were allowed to continue, the three cultivators would certainly die. However, there were other cultivators there.

There were two other cultivators besides the three cultivators attacking the Longevity Tower. Meanwhile, there were three cultivators attacking Chen Feng. Even the two cultivators from the group that was besieging the Heavenly Premiers Absolute and Eternal fired out attacks at the Longevity Tower. Their objective, to save the three cultivators that were facing the Longevity Tower’s attack.

Alone, there would have been nothing that Chen Feng could do about it, but Chen Feng had reinforcements. More, this force had been hiding itself in the dark, ready to launch a sneak attack at any moment. And this was that moment. The Dark Kirin, who had long since grown eager to take action, finally attacked.

The Dark Kirin appeared with his real body, unleashing his strongest attack as he did. Next, a beam of black light abruptly exploded. As a result, the bodies of the Heavenly Premiers Ninelink, Purple Glory and Transcendent Wind exploded into bits, leaving only strands of their primary spirits behind, which struggled amidst the power of darkness there. The power of darkness kept corroding whatever remained of their souls.

As their souls were on the brink of obliteration, a mote of starlight suddenly flashed out from each of their primary spirits before transforming into a clump of flames. The three clumps of fire raged with increasing ferocity before finally becoming one zhang tall. Driving away the power of darkness, the flames then disappeared and Heavenly Premier Ninelink’s team of three re-appeared before them.

“Undying Talismans!” Chen Feng and Bi Qing cried out loudly at the same time.

“To think that the three of them would possess such items! Could those be gifts from the Immortal Plane? However, those are not the kind of items that the average cultivator in the Immortal Plane could afford to bring out.”

“What is it about those three that the Immortal Plane would value them so much? Or perhaps, the three of them had managed to acquire the talismans by luck. Still, even though the Undying Talismans are wondrous objects, they can only be used once. They’ll die for real next time.”

The Dark Kirin had unleashed his full power for the sneak attack only to fail to kill them. This result shocked him. That said, he did not falter. Instead, he attacked Heavenly Premier Ninelink’s team of three again.

The Dark Kirin thought to himself, I failed to kill you just now. So, I will just attack again. Let’s see how long you can endure.

Speaking of which, the Dark Kirin was indeed very strong. Although Heavenly Premier Ninelink’s team of three was prepared this time, they were sent flying once again. This time, however, they were not as badly wounded. Rather, they only sustained some minor injuries.

On the other hand, while the Longevity Tower had managed to suppress three cultivators, it ended up becoming a target of attack by several other cultivators. Due to that, it was unable to kill the three cultivators in one fell swoop. Just as Chen Feng was thinking of making use of the opportunity to attack, the great hand from earlier appeared again. It promptly slapped the Longevity Tower. Surprisingly, it managed to send the Longevity Tower tumbling with this attack.

It was something that Chen Feng had not expected. He had not expected the great hand to possess such power. Of course, the Longevity Tower was no slouch either. It diverted a portion of the force assailing it down to the three cultivators that it had been suppressing.

Due to that, the three cultivators from the Boltfiend Clan were quaked to their deaths. Unlike Heavenly Premier Ninelink’s team of three, they did not come back to life.

The cultivators from the Boltfiend Clan do not have Undying Talismans. This is a good thing, Chen Feng thought.

“Kid, don’t get too happy just yet. The great hand earlier is something formed using the power of the Divine Wilderness Temple.” The Longevity Tower flew back into Chen Feng’s hand.

“Something created by a Divine artifact? This is quite troublesome. Tower, can you handle it?” Chen Feng secretly asked.

“We’re better off just thinking of a way to escape.” Tower’s reply was very direct.

“How confident are you about that?”

“For now, I do not know.” After Tower said that, the Longevity Tower thrummed and two streams of golden light flew out before transforming into whips. One flew into Chen Feng’s grasp while the other flew into Bi Qing’s grasp.

“Those are Longevity Whips, created using True laws and a bit of the blood essence from the True Immortal that we killed last time. Heh! Without these things, I would have no idea how we should charge out.” Tower chuckled.

“That’s right, we still have those things! How did I forget?” Chen Feng grew elated.

The blood essence left behind by a True Immortal possessed world-annihilating powers. By using secret techniques to drive this power within it, an even greater power could be unleashed. Hearing what Tower said, Chen Feng grew emboldened.

Shua!

The Longevity Whip swiftly lashed out and golden light erupted. Like a river of stars, it instantly sent the two cultivators besieging Heavenly Premier Absolute flying.

The two cultivators were from the Immortal Plane. Thus, they knew what the whip was. Dread instantly surged into their hearts. Thankfully, the supporting power of the Divine artifact saved them from any serious injuries.

Chen Feng continued attacking with the Longevity Whip. Golden light flashed and streams of light spilled out. Add the moves that Chen Feng was displaying with the Longevity Whip, the silhouettes of the golden whip became like swirling wyrms to smack several other cultivators away. Although they were not badly wounded, they cut quite the wretched sight. Due to that, they felt rage towards Chen Feng.

If Chen Feng’s performance after obtaining the Longevity Whip was like one who had received the assistance of Gods, Bi Qing became like a tiger that had grown wings. Bi Qing was a Heavenly Immortal. He knew all too well how to unleash the power of True laws. Upon receiving the Longevity Whip, the first thing he did was to keep his sword. Next, with a gentle swing of the whip, he sent a whip silhouette flashing forth. The cultivators who were besieging him were thus sent flying.

“That thing is amazing!” Heavenly Premier Absolute praised.

“You two have fused with True laws as well. The day will come when you two will be able to comprehend the principles behind them. Then, you will also be able to display such power,” Bi Qing said with a smile.

“I did hear that you fellows managed to kill off a True Immortal who came down here. Looks like it is true,” a Lightning Plane cultivator said solemnly.

“You’re very well-informed. I wonder, have you made any preparations to deal with this?” Chen Feng said with a derisive grin. Even though Chen Feng’s side had managed to kill off several Ascendant Immortals, they had also sustained losses on their side. Most importantly, it would appear that the damage to Heavenly Firmaments Palace did not appear significant.

Chen Feng had already begun making the calculations. Since he took over, East Dragon Island had never sustained such a level of loss before. After making it out, he must figure a way to settle this score.

He believed that the wars unfolding in the world of cultivation would not be ending anytime soon. That was especially so now that the various forces were coming together. Unless Heavenly Firmaments Palace possessed the power to devour the Heavens, the chaos and unrest would only grow in intensity. Take this situation for example. If a Boltfiend Clan could come out of nowhere, then who knows if some other forces would appear as well?

“We have mobilized a Divine artifact for this. There is no way for you fellows to escape. In the past, the Longevity Tower was highly formidable. Unfortunately, it no longer possesses that power,” a cultivator from the Boltfiend Clan said. Streams of power kept flowing forward to strengthen them all. Lightning radiance flashed and their auras had a ferocious quality to it. All of them became like Gods of War.

“If so, just attack! So many of your guys have died, who knows who will die next?” Chen Feng did not hesitate. With a wave of his hand, the Longevity Whip swiped forward to attack another cultivator.

Weng!

The Longevity Whip roared, but as it lashed forward, its momentum grew increasingly weak. Cracks spread out across space and a heavy and viscous force bore down on the Longevity Whip before pushing forward, moving towards Chen Feng’s group. It felt like a mountain surging towards a group of ordinary humans. Even the Dark Kirin had to keep giving ground.

“They’re directly using their Divine artifact for an attack! Quite despicable,” Chen Feng shouted as he brought the Dark Kirin, Heavenly Premier Absolute and Heavenly Premier Eternal inside the Longevity Tower.

Chen Feng and Bi Qing took action simultaneously, swinging the Longevity Whips to create rampaging silhouettes of golden-coloured whips for the sake of fighting back against the force coming at them from their surroundings.

The cultivators from the Boltfiend Clan and the others did not simply do nothing. While they were not directly taking action, they were linking up to the Divine Wilderness Temple, mobilizing the Divine artifact’s power to suppress Chen Feng and the others.

They had their own objective. Killing off Chen Feng’s group was not the ultimate objective here. Their true objective was to obtain the Longevity Tower. If the Longevity Tower could recover its full might, it would become an existence surpassing the Divine Wilderness Temple.

Kacha! Kacha! Kacha! Kacha!

Bang! Bang!

Cracks spread out across the Longevity Whips in both Chen Feng and Bi Qing’s hands. Following that, a banging sound rang out and the two whips transformed into two streams of energy, which then flowed into the Longevity Tower.

Chen Feng and Bi Qing had instantly entered the Longevity Tower. The power of a Divine artifact was not something that the two of them could resist, especially Chen Feng. Making their way into the Longevity Tower, Chen Feng then fell to the floor. Bi Qing rapidly moved forward to help Chen Feng with his wounds.

It had been an extremely perilous situation. Any bit later and Chen Feng would have been ripped to pieces.
