Chapter 974 Secret Longevity Technique

Chapter 974 Secret Longevity Technique

Translator: podao001

Although this attack seemed like an eye technique, there was the Soul Subduing Mantra hidden within it. This soul-type attack was even harder to defend against. Due to that, it was sometimes even more effective.

The three frontmost cultivators who were charging at Chen Feng fell prey to the technique and even the wyrms that they brought with them slowed down as a result. Chen Feng did not rush forward to attack. Instead, his fingers danced about and a stream of light rapidly unfurled to envelop the three cultivators, their wyrms alongside them.

Longevity Dimension!

The three cultivators were thus sealed inside the dimension, incapable of moving anytime soon. After that, Chen Feng’s figure moved in an arcing motion. Using the protection provided by the Magic Eyes of Darkness, Chen Feng then fired out a punch to send a lance-wielding cultivator flying.

On the other side, three cultivators who were riding their wyrms surrounded Chen Feng. The three wyrms then unleashed a breath of water, fire and lightning respectively at Chen Feng. As for the three cultivators, they sent out silky threads to seal up the surrounding space. The other cultivators attacked as well. One of them brandished a sword and slashed at Chen Feng while another cultivator’s eyes shone with light as he unleashed soul-type attacks against Chen Feng.

Bang! Bang!

However, some of the cultivators there were even faster than them. Two of the cultivators there had managed to strike Chen Feng with their battle lances, but the Longevity Combat Armour blocked their attacks. At the same time, the blood-coloured runes on the Longevity Combat Armour became like raging flames and a formidable backlash sent the two lance-wielding cultivators flying away.

Following that, the water, fire and lightning breaths engulfed Chen Feng. But Chen Feng used only an instant to devour at least half of the power within the attacks. The power was then transformed and channelled into the Longevity Combat Armour. Due to that, the defensive power of the Longevity Combat Armour grew even stronger.

A sword hacked down against Chen Feng’s forehead, causing a small amount of blood to trickle down his forehead. Chen Feng then charged high up into the sky, breaking through the sealed space only for a chilling energy to slip into his sea of wisdom.

It was the enemy cultivator’s soul-type attack.

Although the Longevity Tower was presently not with Chen Feng, he did have other magic treasures on his person. The Treasured Ocean Pearl shook slightly and the soul power assailing his sea of wisdom was shattered.

“Good! Good! Well done, kid!” Bi Qing praised loudly.

It had been just a flash, but Chen Feng had already exchanged blows with 10 enemy cultivators. He killed one of them with the Blood Mustering Bead and even made use of the Longevity Dimension to seal up three of them. There were also the Longevity Combat Armour, Longevity Wings, Soul Subduing Mantra and Heavengulping Absorption Technique. In that brief moment, Chen Feng had displayed several secret techniques from the Longevity Scripture. Witnessing that, Bi Qing felt relieved.

He is able to cultivate so many of the Longevity Scripture’s secret techniques and use them all with such proficiency. There are not many in the Longevity Clan who could do something like this. Only, he had cultivated too many of them so they are not pure enough. Bi Qing knew then that Chen Feng should no longer have any issues with this tribulation.

Next up, Chen Feng relied on the speed boost provided by the Longevity Wings to kill off the three sealed enemy cultivators. As for the wyrms, they were devoured by the Blood Mustering Bead. This time’s harvest was simply too great. The Blood Mustering Bead would probably be able to level up to the mid-grade Immortal tier soon.

East Dragon Island...

“This, this... am I hallucinating right now?” Patriarch Hegemon Sword exclaimed, rubbing his eyes as he did.

He was not the only one. The other Ascendant Immortals there were also shocked, their jaws wide open. Just earlier, Chen Feng had been besieged by the enemy cultivators only to seemingly transform into another person in the blink of an eye. He displayed one wondrous secret technique after another and his combat power shot up like a straight line.

Shua!

Their vision blurred and Bi Qing appeared before them.

“There is nothing else to see here. This kid will become a mid-level Earthen Immortal soon.” After saying that, Bi Qing’s figure flashed and he disappeared once again.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three more Dao artifacts inside Chen Feng blew up to provide him with a formidable power. Due to that, the concept of exhaustion seemingly meant nothing to him. The more he fought, the more dauntless he became.

The three Dao artifacts were the Fire Wyrm Sword, Star Rune Sword and Starsource Sword. All three were swords. Moreover, all three were already very close to reaching the Immortal tier. Even so, Chen Feng had chosen to blow them up. Part of the essence within them was fused with the Longevity Sword, causing the rate at which the Longevity Sword was levelling up to grow even faster.

The Longevity Combat Armour grew even thicker. At the same time, two more drops of blood emerged from the Blood Mustering Bead to fuse with the Longevity Combat Armour. As a result, Chen Feng became practically invincible. There was no longer any need for him to defend himself. Instead, he simply focused on attacking.

By relying on the various secret techniques, Chen Feng managed to gain complete dominance in the fight against the cultivators created by the Heavenly Tribulation. Rather, the cultivators were dying with each passing moment. With every cultivator Chen Feng killed, the tribulation clouds above his head would become a notch weaker. Eventually, every one of the cultivators there fell to Chen Feng and no more appeared.

Chen Feng knew then that he had successfully overcome his tribulation. Sensing the power palpitating vigorously within him, Chen Feng felt unsatisfied. He wanted even more cultivators to appear for him to kill.

Chen Feng had managed to obtain a great deal from this. The nine Poisonous Vileblood Wyrms inside the Blood Mustering Bead had also benefited greatly from this. They had managed to devour so many wyrms, all at the Ascendant Immortal stage. That said, while Chen Feng was there to oversee the situation, taking on all that power had still left the nine Poisonous Vileblood Wyrms in a half-dead state. As a result, however, their strength was rising continuously. Thinking about how he would have nine more helpers at the Ascendant Immortal stage soon, Chen Feng could not stop himself from laughing.

After successfully overcoming his tribulation, Chen Feng spent some time in outer space. Only after his cultivation level had stabilized did he return to East Dragon Island.

Not long after he returned, the cultivators from the Blood Plane came knocking. Receiving the news, Chen Feng instantly burst into a smile.

As he had expected, there was no way for the Blood Plane to partner up with Heavenly Firmaments Palace. The reason for that was the Lightning Plane and Demon Plane. That said, Heavenly Firmaments Palace did send some men over to forge ties with the blood cultivators, but they failed to come to an agreement in the end. In but several days’ time, news of blood cultivators appearing in Eternal World had spread across the entire world of cultivation.

The blood cultivators were devilish characters. Thus, the Sky Pillars Mountain Range was not big enough for the 10 million plus blood cultivators. Due to that, they decided to expand their territory. This action resulted in the resistance from the forces of the Central Plains. The battles they had to face were even more ferocious compared to the one it had against the East Dragon Island Alliance and Heavenly Firmaments Palace. Additionally, Heavenly Firmaments Palace also sent out some cultivators to take advantage of the situation.

Although the blood cultivators managed to seize some territories for themselves, it hadn’t been an easy battle for them. Rather, they lost a high number of blood cultivators in the process. The number of blood cultivators they had on their side was limited. With no way to replenish their numbers, every loss was permanent.

Due to that, Prince Blood Edge could no longer hold himself back. He personally led his men to visit East Dragon Island. The most important issue here was making an alliance with East Dragon Island.

After inquiring around, they had gained a better understanding of the situation in Eternal World. At present, the East Dragon Island Alliance was indeed very formidable. It was the only force capable of fighting against Heavenly Firmaments Palace in Eternal World.

Forging an alliance with East Dragon Island would resolve their present problem. Then, they can work on opening a passageway and mobilize more blood cultivators over.

Humph! When the time comes, the entire Eternal World will become our blood sustenance. Even East Dragon Island will not be spared!

For East Dragon Island, it didn’t matter if the blood cultivators sincerely wanted to ally with it or not. To forge an alliance with the blood cultivators on the surface would still bring it some benefits. As for what the other forces would say about this, Chen Feng simply did not care. Again, in the world of cultivation, might makes right. Besides, the situation in Eternal World would only become even more chaotic and the other forces would likely be incapable of sparing too much strength to deal with the blood cultivators. Moreover, who knows which other worlds would send their cultivators over after this?

Chen Feng led four Ascendant Immortals with him to receive Prince Blood Edge and his men. This should be enough for a display of respect.

When Prince Blood Edge saw Chen Feng, he grew shocked. It was not because of Chen Feng’s cultivation level, but because he felt a formidable pressure assailing him.

Now that he was face-to-face with Chen Feng, Prince Blood Edge had a feeling that he was no match for him. It was a suppressive effect that reached his soul. This absolute display of strength was not something that could be faked.

“Ha ha ha ha! Welcome!” Chen Feng laughed.

“Congratulations to Island Lord Chen for your successful breakthrough.” Prince Blood Edge suppressed the shock in his heart and put on a façade of calmness.

“Far from it. I am now only a mid-level Earthen Immortal. This is not enough to preserve myself in these chaotic times. At the very least, I will need to cultivate up to the Ascendant Immortal stage,” Chen Feng said smilingly.

“Ascendant Immortal stage?!” Hearing that, Prince Blood Edge secretly swore. Even though Chen Feng was presently only at the Earthen Immortal stage, he could already feel a formidable atmosphere of pressure coming from Chen Feng. If Chen Feng were to cultivate up to the Ascendant Immortal stage, what then? Wouldn’t he be able to sweep through the entire Eternal World? What should he do then?

After considering that, Prince Blood Edge began wondering. Are the Celestial Planes so powerful? Are all the cultivators from there such a defiance of Heaven?

However, after considering how the Celestial Planes could even suppress the Immortal Plane, he calmed down only to quickly feel entangled again. It would appear that his Blood Plane was not as formidable as he had thought.

“This time, we came here to discuss the matter of forging an alliance with East Dragon Island,” Prince Blood Edge said frankly.

“Not a problem! We are honoured to be able to forge an alliance with the Blood Plane,” Chen Feng laughed as he nodded his head in agreement.

“Of course, we will need a proper discussion about the specific details.”

“That is a must.”

Regardless of what both parties actually had in mind, they showed courtesy to one another. Their discussion was thus able to proceed smoothly.

After Prince Blood Edge and his men left, Patriarch Hegemon Sword asked curiously, “Are we really going to send our men to help the blood cultivators expand their territory? Those fellows are not the best partners to have.”

“Since we are allies, we will need to display some sincerity. At present, they need our help. So, they will not be turning on us for now. On our side, we also need this force. Heavenly Firmaments Palace is too strong, after all. Moreover, those emerging forces don’t seem to think much about our East Dragon Island Alliance as well,” Chen Feng said with a chuckle.

“That is true. This group of blood cultivators is a foreign force and allying with them might bring some adverse effects. However, they are indeed very strong. Additionally, given the current state of our world of cultivation, this bit of variable is still something negligible for us.” Heavenly Premier Absolute nodded his head.

“Oh, something is happening!” Chen Feng suddenly grew delighted.

“Something is happening? What?” Everyone there became puzzled.

Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou!

Six domineering auras vaulted skywards, flashing out before disappearing. Chen Feng then waved his hand and the Longevity Tower appeared in his hand.

“They’re undergoing tribulation!” Heavenly Premier Absolute cried out in delight.

“Yes, Patriarch Carefree and five others will likely be advancing to the mid-level Ascendant Immortal stage, but there are still over ten thousand cultivators inside the Longevity Tower. I wonder who will be breaking through to the Ascendant Immortal stage next?” Chen Feng nodded.
