Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou!

Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou!

Cultivators began flying out non-stop from the spatial passageway. By the time the onlookers recollected themselves, the arriving cultivators had already occupied a large section of the square.

Plop!

Some of the onlookers fell to their buttocks even as they gaped blankly at what was happening.

Everyone there had already gone numb from the shock.

The cultivators who came through the spatial passageway – over 200 of them – were all Human Immortals as well.

He’s a Human Immortal! She’s a Human Immortal! Everybody’s a Human Immortal!

This many Human Immortals was already enough to destroy a great sect.

“Are they going to war here? No, these people don’t look like they’re from Nine Firmaments Palace. They also don’t look like they’re from Extreme Celestial Sect.”

“They’re definitely not from Extreme Celestial Sect. If Extreme Celestial Sect still has this kind of force, they would not have suffered so badly.”

Some of them began recollecting themselves.

“Still, for so many Human Immortals to appear all of a sudden, they must surely be here for this war. Only, what is their objective?”

“Look! There are still more behind them!”

After the Human Immortals came even more cultivators, an endless throng of them. This time, they were not Human Immortals, but Sky Human stage cultivators.

It did not take long before the number of cultivators to come out from the spatial passageway exceeded 2,000. Even so, they showed no signs of stopping. It seemed as though there was truly no end to them.

An aura of power and imperiousness radiated out from every one of them. Some were even emanating turbulent and bloodthirsty auras.

Originally, there had been some other cultivators waiting in the teleportation square for their turn. However, due to the pressure exerted by these sudden newcomers, the cultivators were forced to back away, moving back all the way until they were outside the square. Even the soldiers from Carefree City who were on guard duty there had backed away. These newcomers were simply too powerful. Most importantly, there were too many of them.

The number of cultivators coming through the spatial passageway had exceeded 5,000.

The vast teleportation square was completely occupied by them.

Over 10,000.

Every single one of the forces in Carefree City was shell-shocked. None of them dared to come out. Instead, they watched what was happening in secret, wondering where these cultivators were from.

15,000.

20,000.

By then, the entire Carefree City seemed to be quivering. The auras that the newcomers were subconsciously exuding had enveloped the entire sky.

In the end, no more cultivators appeared through the spatial passageway, which then disappeared. There in the teleportation square were over 20,000 cultivators.

“Did you guys notice? There are many yao beasts amongst them.”

“They’re water yaos. Strange. I don’t recall any place with so many water yaos in our Northern Plains. How strange.”

“You fool. Let’s just check where they had teleported in from and we’ll find out.”

“Yes. Yes.”

“Hey, one of them looks familiar.”

“Where?”

“That one, the one in the middle. That youngster in blue clothes.”

“Yes, he does look familiar.”

“That’s Chen Feng! It’s actually Chen Feng!”

“Chen Feng who?”

“Did you forget? Some tens of years ago, he offended Nine Firmaments Palace and was pursed by them as a result. Back then, we even formed a team to hunt for him.”

“Now I remember. So, it’s that Chen Feng. Back then, many people died hunting him. Thankfully for us, we did not encounter him. If we had, we would have died as well.”

“As I recall, Chen Feng is a disciple of...”

“He’s a disciple of Extreme Celestial Sect!”

“Now, it’s clear. Chen Feng has returned to help Extreme Celestial Sect.”

“But how could Chen Feng muster up such a powerful force?”

“Sigh! This is what we call a difference in calibre. Some people are born with the destiny to accomplish great things. We, on the other hand, even after 1,000 years, we will still be the run-of-the-mill cultivator.”

“Heh! With this, the Northern Plains will be thrown into utter chaos.”

“Yes. At present, Extreme Celestial Sect is already on the brink of destruction. However, with the addition of so many cultivators, Nine Firmaments Palace will be in trouble.”

“Humph! Nine Firmaments Palace.”

“Keep it down.”

The newcomers were indeed the cultivators that Chen Feng had brought along with him. The first step in Chen Feng’s plan was to rush to the Northern Plains. Secondly, he would contact the various major trade associations to get a rough understanding of the current situation.

Generally speaking, these trade associations would remain neutral. By putting enough money on the table, Chen Feng would be able to get any information he wanted from them.

Only after getting the information and a proper understanding of what was happening in the Northern Plains would he be able to attack. At any rate, while Chen Feng did bring a considerable number of cultivators with him, there was no way this force could compete against the millions of disciples from the Three Palaces. Thus, his attacks had to be well thought out, capable of damaging the opponent seriously. That was Chen Feng’s goal. Of course, given Chen Feng’s present force, that was the only thing he could do.

Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou!

Suddenly, four cultivators flew over from four different directions to land on the square. They revealed a calm expression each. However, complicated emotions could be seen deep within their eyes.

The four of them were Earthen Immortals. They were Carefree City’s strongest backers.

“If I may ask, who here is the decision maker?” one of the old men asked with a smile.

Although all four were Earthen Immortals, there were highly amiable looks on their faces. There wasn’t a hint of arrogance on their faces. On the contrary, there was concern there.

As the onlookers were limited by their levels, they believed that the strongest amongst the newcomers was at the Human Immortal stage. However, the four Earthen Immortals could sense great danger. There were Earthen Immortals amongst the newcomers.

Rather, they had a faint feeling that there were even some amongst the Human Immortals who could threaten them, considerably.

Damn! What is going on here?

After coming face-to-face with them, the four Earthen Immortals found themselves becoming shocked once more. They became so shocked that they lost control over their facial expressions.

The number of Human Immortals was one thing. However, the quality of the Human Immortals there was simply too high. A random pick of the Human Immortals there would reveal that the cultivator was a top-notch cultivation genius.

The four Earthen Immortals also noticed that a portion of the cultivators there possessed highly rare spiritual bodies. Even for great sects, there were times when they could not boast of a single cultivator with special constitutions. And yet, there were several of them here. No, there were tens of them here!

Just where did these people come from?

That was the most pressing question in their minds.

“Fellow seniors, is there anything?” Chen Feng, escorted by the newly-arrived cultivators, walked forward.

“This person’s cultivation base!”

The four Earthen Immortals grew somewhat hesitant. The aura that Chen Feng was emanating was both fleeting and lofty, making it hard for them to get a good grasp of it.

“May we ask where you came from, friend? Also, why have you come to our Carefree City?” One of the old men forced himself to ask.

Chen Feng smiled. Although the four old men before him were Earthen Immortals, they did not appear to be much of a threat to him. If it were to come down to a fight, Chen Feng was confident in defeating all four in a short time.

Still, there was no grudge between him and them. Besides, Chen Feng was not someone who would kill people on a whim.

“I’m just going to borrow this place for a moment,” Chen Feng said smilingly.

“Borrow?”

“We’ll be leaving soon. We are not here to start a war with Carefree City. Don’t worry.”

After saying that, Chen Feng waved his hand and several Human Immortals promptly flew up to instantly disappear from sight.

They had received Chen Feng’s orders to collect information.

After hearing Chen Feng’s words, the four Earthen Immortals breathed a sigh of relief.

Only after the 20,000 cultivators had left Carefree City did everyone there grew at ease. The atmosphere earlier was simply too strong.

After leaving Carefree City, Chen Feng settled the cultivators down before moving out on his own. Bringing out a black token, he empowered it with his magic power to quickly locate a pocket dimension.

Sou!

The power of the black token wrapped Chen Feng up before breaking through space to disappear from sight.

Next, Chen Feng re-appeared within a pocket dimension. This was where his master, Sage Enigma Flame from Extreme Celestial Sect, was residing.

He had found the Twin Swords of Life and Death in this pocket dimension.

Naturally, Chen Feng’s master was not the only one here. Even Chen Feng’s earliest subordinates were there. The Pot Brothers, Knight Yaoblade, Sage Beastdrive and Grotto Mistress Hypnosis. Back then, their cultivation bases were still very low.

Ye Tian was there as well.

Thinking about it, it had been decades since he last saw them. He wasn’t even able to get any news about them.

The present Chen Feng was no longer the kid who had never seen the world that he was in the past. Thus, after entering the pocket dimension, he instantly noticed things that he had never noticed before.

He could clearly see that it was not just a pocket dimension, but an Immortal artefact. Rather, it was the interior of an Immortal artefact. Of course, it was a damaged Immortal artefact. There was no way to tell how long it had been in this state. However, its interior space was not destroyed and was instead transformed into a pocket dimension, sort of. It can already be considered a world of its own. There were also various living creatures inside it. Only, none were too powerful. Back then, the strongest one that Chen Feng had encountered was only at the Great Yao stage.

Chen Feng swiftly released his soul power. By then, Chen Feng’s soul power was already strong enough to scan up to a radius of 250,000 kilometres.

He quickly found Sage Enigma Flame’s place of residence.

“No one!”

Chen Feng was taken aback and he quickly appeared before the place.

As expected, there was no one there.

“From the looks of it, it hadn’t been too long since they left.”

After pondering the issue for a moment, Chen Feng then brought out the Thousand Seeker Mirror to replay the events that happened in the past. It did not take long for him to understand what happened here. Sage Enigma Flame had only just left a few days ago. No questions were needed to know that he had left due to the war that Extreme Celestial Sect was embroiled in.

Chen Feng speculated that his master was likely already in the midst of the war.

I knew the old man would join the war. Old man, you must survive. If anything happens, I will be sure to rip the Three Palaces apart. Killing intent glinted across Chen Feng’s face.

Next up, Chen Feng swiftly made his way around the pocket dimension to finally figure out that it only had a radius of half a million kilometres. There was absolutely no way for it to be put on the same pedestal as a world.

“I should move out quickly. Hopefully, the old man is doing all right.” After saying that, Chen Feng then left the pocket dimension.

The Extreme Celestial Mountains, Extreme Celestial Sect...

The atmosphere of the place was completely different from how it was in the past. Cultivators flew about non-stop, giving it a bustling atmosphere. However, a more detailed look would reveal that there was in fact, a solemn and hurried atmosphere there.

Most of them were wounded.

The sky above the Extreme Celestial Mountains was grey in colour. Those with a good enough eyesight would be able to see that there were bloody fights erupting around the place all the time. The fights were of varying scales, some large and some small.
