“Our Island Lord is here!” Patriarch Golden Turtle shouted loudly. Although it was only Chen Feng and the Divine Phantom Mink, seeing them caused their morale to rise considerably.

After killing off another Yao King, Chen Feng swiftly flew up into the sky. With a wave of his hand, a massive water ball appeared. Spinning rapidly above Chen Feng’s hand, it then compressed into the size of a fist.

That was a ball of Dawnsource Crystal Water. The Dawnsource Crystal Water was capable of purifying the soul, improve vitality and heal wounds. Its effects were somewhat similar to that of the Fountain of Life. However, it was of a higher grade compared to the Fountain of Life.

Bang!

The water ball exploded, splitting up into many droplets, which scattered about to fall upon the cultivators from East Dragon Island.

Due to the bolstering effect of the Dawnsource Crystal Water, the wounds on their bodies quickly healed up and their essence, energy and soul power rapidly recovered. Some with relatively lighter wounds were able to fully recover at a swift rate.

Bang!

Another ball of water exploded. This time, it transformed into streams, which flowed into the bodies of Netherpython and the other Human Immortals.

As Chen Feng was bringing out a third ball of Dawnsource Crystal Water, a massive sea serpent charged out from the water surface towards Chen Feng. It opened its mouth to devour Chen Feng.

Yao Immortal!

Targeted by the sea serpent, Chen Feng felt the world spinning around him and he lost his sense of direction. The power of space twisted about to bind Chen Feng.

This Heaven-devouring move by the Yao Immortal truly gave off the impression that it could devour Heaven. The average Human Immortal would have been instantly devoured by it.

Bang!

Chen Feng’s heart promptly thumped and his Seven Apertures acupoint shook simultaneously as an incomparably formidable power surged through his entire body.

With a short pulse from Chen Feng, the suction force acting on his body disappeared. Next, he swung his hand and a Great Longevity Palm charged forward.

Pa!

The massive sea serpent was slapped back into the ocean, causing a tsunami to rise up into the sky.

Only when the sea serpent emerged a second time was Chen Feng able to get a proper look at the sea serpent.

Over 1,000 zhang long, it was capable of coiling around a small island. A red light shot out from its mouth to wrap around Chen Feng.

Employing the Longevity Steps, Chen Feng evaded the attack. Then, with a wave of his hand, the Hell Dog appeared. The Nether Eye on the Hell Dog’s forehead fired out a faint-blue spiritual light which pierced right through the sea serpent’s head.

The massive body of the sea serpent then smashed into the ocean surface.

Waving his hand, Chen Feng collected the corpse of the sea serpent. That was a Yao Immortal, after all. Strong and containing a high amount of blood essence, every part of the body was a good item. How could he just waste something so good?

Next up, the Hell Dog hovered in mid-air and his Nether Eye kept flashing as he began utilizing a large-scale illusion technique. The ability to cast illusions was the Hell Dog’s innate skill. At that very moment, he put his skill on full display and the many water yaos caught within his illusion fell into a state of chaos. They began killing their own companions. Some even committed suicide.

As the Hell Dog was engaged in a slaughter fest, more Yao Immortals appeared from the opposing side. This time, there were two of them. These two Yao Immortals were on the same level as the Hell Dog.

One of them was a cyan-coloured wyrm while the other was a massive, cuttlefish-like water monster.

“Two Yao Immortals. This will not be easy,” Chen Feng said seriously.

“Leave these two to me!” the Hell Dog said, his eyes flashing as his Nether Eye attacked once again.

The two sides fought one another and they quickly moved farther away into the ocean region, disappearing from sight.

After considering it for a moment, Chen Feng then waved his hand and the Ancient Flame Beetle appeared in mid-air. Although the Ancient Flame Beetle was always slumbering, it was already a starter-level Earthen Immortal. Appearing in mid-air, it then grew up to a length of 1,000 metres.

Every part of its body was tough and fiery-red in colour, like a scarlet crystal flashing with brilliance. The power of fire radiated out from its body and the space around it began burning.

“Fire breath!”

Chen Feng shouted and the Ancient Flame Beetle began spraying out flames. Formidable and scorching-hot flames spread across the surface of the ocean and the ocean level there began sinking as waves shot high up into the sky. Countless water yaos and water monsters were burned by the attack.

Once the Ancient Flame Beetle began spraying out fire, it did not stop. Flames surged out continuously, reigning unchallenged as they swept across the surface of the ocean and rose up to the sky, reaping one life after another. It was as though the end of days had arrived.

Seeing that, Chen Feng felt somewhat surprised. This was his first time using the Ancient Flame Beetle. He had not expected such a formidable display of power from it.

On the flip side, however, the power of fire within the Ancient Flame Beetle’s body was quickly dwindling.

This move from Chen Feng had set the ocean surface there ablaze, bringing about a change to the entire battlefield.

The forces from East Dragon Island who were already about to lose gained themselves some breathing space.

However, despite the ferocity of the flames and how damaging it appeared against the enemies, Chen Feng was aware that it was not able to deal a serious amount of damage to the opposing force.

They were in the ocean region, after all. Water was super effective against fire. As some of the water yaos were about to be engulfed by the flames, they promptly dived into the ocean waters to avoid the flames.

In other words, the biggest effect from the flames was to create chaos in the battlefield. In truth, less than 1% of the water yaos there were burned to death.

Even so, the Ancient Flame Beetle continued spraying out flames, not stopping at all. In Chen Feng’s opinion, the more enemies it could kill, the better it would be.

As Chen Feng was instructing the Ancient Flame Beetle to spray fire upon the battlefield, the reinforcements from Absolute Academy and the others under Jian Xiaotian finally arrived. With that, the battle tilted in favour of the forces from East Dragon Island.

Winning the war was not a problem anymore. Even so, Chen Feng was aware that it will still be somewhat difficult for East Dragon Island to occupy the entire Starry Islands.

At any rate, the Starry Islands was composed of countless islands. It was a very large area with a high amount of resources, over a hundred times that of East Dragon Island.

Most importantly, it was also a buffer zone and a barrier. By going farther away from the Starry Islands, one would enter the distant ocean region. The islands here can be used for both offence and defence, a springboard to assault the distant ocean region. It was also why Chen Feng’s subordinates had chosen to attack even when Chen Feng was not around.

Although our side has some seriously formidable cards, we are still lacking in numbers. Looks like we’ll have to increase our rate of recruitment. As Chen Feng pondered the issue, he brought out the Deepsea Maelstrom, a top-grade Dao artefact.

Truth be told, this action of Chen Feng was the equivalent of bullying others. The Deepsea Maelstrom flew out from his hand and began rampaging forward. No matter how powerful the water yaos and water monsters may be, any who made contact with the Deepsea Maelstrom would die instantly.

They were simply not on the same level. No, this was just a massacre.

Observing Chen Feng start a massacre, a Yao Immortal could not stop itself from rushing out from the ocean. However, it was sucked into the Deepsea Maelstrom, never to reappear again.

“The outcome has been decided.”

“A top-grade Dao artefact! How enviable.”

“With this, East Dragon Island’s territory has expanded by over a hundred times.”

“Truly savage.”

The moment Chen Feng brought out the Deepsea Maelstrom, East Dragon Island’s victory was guaranteed. Witnessing the rampaging Dao artefact, the cultivators there could not stop themselves from discussing the issue.

“Two-headed Windbolt Wyrm, go help the Hell Dog and Divine Phantom Mink. Finish off the opposing Yao Immortals as fast as you can.” It was then that Chen Feng finally released the Two-headed Windbolt Wyrm.

Although reluctant, the Two-headed Windbolt Wyrm finally transformed to his original form and charged out.

“Another Yao Immortal!” All the onlookers there exclaimed once more.

“Just how many cards does Chen Feng has?”

“How unexpected! When Chen Feng was at Absolute Academy, he had kept a very low profile. To think that he would possess such power! Looks like there is a need to establish a good friendship with him in the future.”

“Since we decided to come help him, we can already be considered as friends.”

“Sigh! He can so casually bring out a top-grade. He is far superior compared to the both of us.”

Due to Chen Feng’s appearance, the Starry Islands became part of Chen Feng’s territory. Not long after that, the Hell Dog, Divine Phantom Mink and Two-headed Windbolt Wyrm returned, their enemies dead.

With three Yao Immortals defending the Starry Islands, the situation was quickly stabilized. In the following days, cultivators from various places would come over to submit to the Starry Islands. Due to that, the Starry Islands grew increasingly strong.

Right after the battle, though, they had to deal with the aftermath. There had been too many casualties in this battle. Thankfully, Chen Feng was able to bring out a large quantity of Dawnsource Crystal Water. If it weren’t for that, the wounds they received in this battle would have required a lengthy period of treatment.

Stabilizing and rebuilding the Starry Islands took one whole month. By then, the reinforcements from Heavenly Sword Faction and Absolute Academy had already returned. Chen Feng left the Hell Dog and Two-headed Windbolt Wyrm to defend the Starry Islands. However, the tree yao and tiger yao refused to come out, continuing to cultivate themselves inside the Longevity Tower.

For these Yao Immortals, there was no better place for cultivation than the Longevity Tower.

Naturally, Chen Feng had no desire to see them stay inside the Longevity Tower all the time. In order to pacify the situation, he needed a formidable force to deter others. That way, his foes would not dare come trouble him and other cultivators would continue to come over to serve under him.

Due to that, Chen Feng forcibly evicted the tiger yao and tree yao from the Longevity Tower. With that, the Divine Phantom Mink and the four Yao Immortals were added to the roster of guardians.

Whether or not they choose to focus entirely on their cultivation or venture into the distant ocean for adventures, Chen Feng did not care.

After another month went by, Chen Feng finished arranging the matters of his territory and headed back to Absolute Academy.

Back then, Chen Feng had killed off Jue Wushen and the others from Absolute Academy. Although he did leave Lan Hai alive to go fabricate a lie to cover up the incident, Chen Feng knew that it was unlikely to work. Absolute Academy must surely already know about him killing off Jue Wushen and the others.

I wonder, how will Absolute Academy punish me? Chen Feng was not feeling worried. Rather, he simply felt curious.

Chen Feng speculated that Absolute Academy would not punish him severely for this matter. After all, victors justified and losers demonized. Jue Wushen and the others had already died while Chen Feng’s territory had expanded. Troubling Chen Feng for the sake of some dead fellows? Chen Feng did not believe that Absolute Academy would do that.

After Chen Feng returned to his grotto-mansion, Lan Hai was the first to come visit. As expected, after talking to Lan Hai, Chen Feng found out that Absolute Academy had already found out about him killing off Jue Wushen and the others.

“This matter could either end up as a minor incident or escalate into a big one. For the academy, having their students die from the bloody competition between one another is a very common thing. Most of the time, the academy would close their eyes to it. In this case, while Jue Wushen and the others are of no consequence, they do have some formidable backers.” Lan Hai appeared to have sincerely submitted himself to Chen Feng as he explained the situation in detail to Chen Feng.
