Chapter 479: Life-or-death Situation

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Brother Lin Feng, what do you think?”

Venerable Vigil did not make a decision immediately. Instead, he looked at Lin Feng and asked in a negotiating tone.

No one was surprised. The strength Lin Feng had displayed previously was worthy of the respect of Venerable Vigil.

“All fiends deserve to be killed! Moreover, the current Oceanus Domain can already be considered a part of the Vigil Domain.”

Lin Feng was very cool-headed. Venerable Vigil also nodded. Indeed, fiends all deserved to be killed, and everyone abhorred them. However, if that was the whole reason, Venerable Vigil might have been indifferent.

After all, the most important thing in the North River Galaxy was to be “selfish”. One’s own interests came before everything. Even if fiends were abhorred by everyone, no one would specially deal with fiends unless there were special circumstances.

However, the Oceanus Domain was different. As Venerable Oceanus was devoured by the fiends, the Oceanus Domain became leaderless. Naturally, they could be annexed by the Vigil Domain. From this perspective, Venerable Vigil had already regarded the Oceanus Domain as his own. How could he give it up so easily?

“Save the Oceanus Domain! Kill the Four Devils!”

Venerable Vigil led the charge. He quickly used his combat body and flew towards the Oceanus Domain as fast as possible.

…

Boom.

The array of the Oceanus Domain was shaking constantly. Originally, the array could also stop a Venerable-level cultivator, but the prerequisite was that someone had to preside over it. Moreover, the one presiding over it had to be a cultivator who was at least a planetary lifeform for it to contend with a Venerable.

Otherwise, if the powerful attack of a Venerable shook the array, basically no cultivator below the planetary level could withstand the impact.

Now, as the four fiends used their combat bodies, their entire bodies emitted a monstrous aura. One of them had even reached the critical point.

The four massive combat bodies attacked the Oceanus Domain’s array fiercely. After only a few tremors, the Oceanus Domain could no longer hold out. Without a presiding planetary cultivator, no matter how powerful the array was, what use could it be?

Under the continuous tremors from the four fiends using their powerful combat bodies, the array was on the verge of collapse.

Thump.

Finally, the array of the Oceanus Domain was torn apart. The dozens of territorial planets of the Oceanus Domain were now exposed to the four fiends. Greed appeared in the eyes of the four fiends.

As long as they could devour all the dozens of territorial planets in the Oceanus Domain, the four of them would probably be able to metamorphose into advanced planetary lifeforms and become powerful Venerables. At that time, when the four of them joined forces, no one below Grand Emperors would be their match!

“Haha, brothers, let’s begin devouring.”

The four fiends all laughed maniacally. They aimed at four of the territorial planets and sucked with their gigantic maws. It was as if they had transformed into black holes, devouring the territorial planets of the Oceanus Domain in a frenzy.

“Ennead True Fire!”

Venerable Vigil arrived in time. He struck out with the Ennead Pearls of Spirit Fire fiercely. They transformed into the size of a planet, emitting terrifying true fire that enveloped the four fiends.

“Venerable Vigil!”

The four fiends roared repeatedly. The Ennead True Fire was no joke. Previously, it had severely injured even Venerable Oceanus. This Ennead Pearl of Spirit Fire could already be considered a trump card of Venerable Vigil.

Even ordinary Venerables could not withstand the Ennead True Fire, let alone four fiends that were merely elementary planetary lifeforms.

However, something was off about the four fiends. Their combat bodies quickly joined, and emitted a mysterious and special aura. Then, there seemed to be a suffocating pressure all around, and even the Ennead True Fire was suppressed.

Venerable Vigil and Lin Feng felt the sense of being “suppressed” again. It was very uncomfortable. If not for the fact that Lin Feng and the Venerable Vigil were not comparable to ordinary Venerables, the two of them would probably be defenseless now.

If an ordinary Venerable suddenly faced such a move from the four fiends, they would probably be unable to withstand it.

This might be how Venerable Oceanus died.

At this moment, Lin Feng immediately attacked without hesitation. He could also tell that there was something off about these four fiends. There must be something on them, perhaps an Origin Weapon.

Rumble.

Lin Feng’s Greater Annihilative Combat Body struck out with another palm that blotted out everything. Although Lin Feng’s combat body was simply too small compared to the combat body of Venerable Vigil, the four fiends did not dare to underestimate it at all.

Previously, Lin Feng had used this palm strike to make the four fiends suffer a hidden loss.

“Confine!”

The combat bodies of the four fiends were about to reach their limits. At this moment, they had to risk their lives. Lin Feng’s strength was about the same as Venerable Vigil’s. They were both equivalent to the cream of the crop among Venerables, with power equivalent to combat bodies that were tens of millions of kilometers.

It was not so easy to deal with even one of them, let alone when the two were joining forces.

In Lin Feng’s opinion, these four fiends already had reason enough to be proud of themselves. They were only elementary planetary lifeforms, yet he had to join forces with Venerable Vigil to deal with them. This was sufficient to show how powerful these four fiends were. It was even somewhat unbelievable.

As the four fiends seemed to use some kind of ability again, Lin Feng clearly felt the surrounding space constrict, as if it was about to imprison him.

His heart skipped a beat. He finally understood why he had that feeling of déjà vu.

The Law of Space. This was clearly the power of the Law of Space!

Could it be that one of the four fiends had comprehended the Law of Space? However, it did not seem like it. Basically all fiends had not comprehended Laws. If they really had that kind of perseverance and comprehension ability, who would they take the risk to become a fiend?

But if they had not comprehended the Law of Space, how could they employ such a method that clearly used spatial power?

This kind of spatial “confinement” was sudden and impossible to guard against. Even Venerable Vigil was confined. Although it could not confine him for long, it was enough for the four fiends to escape their predicament.

However, they encountered Lin Feng, who happened to be a cultivator of the Law of Space. His Law of Space had even reached the planetary level!

Other cultivators, even Venerables, needed a certain amount of time to break the spatial confinement. However, Lin Feng only needed to mobilize the Law of Space to some extent before easily breaking free from the spatial confinement.

Then, Lin Feng threw another punch. This time, he unleashed his full strength, using the strongest power of the Greater Annihilative Combat Body and the Law of Annihilation.

Infinite annihilative power gathered in this punch. The terrifying power was not inferior to the Ennead True Fire of Venerable Vigil at all.

Caught off guard, the four fiends who wanted to escape as soon as possible were immediately enveloped in Lin Feng’s range of attack. The combat bodies of the four fiends were severely injured by Lin Feng in an instant.

“How did you break free?”

The four fiends’ eyes widened in disbelief. Relying on the Law of Space, which very few people in the universe could comprehend, they had killed countless powerful cultivators.

Many Venerables also suffered setbacks at their hand due to carelessness. Even if they could not kill the other party, they could retreat calmly.

Just like in the present, they could not defeat Lin Feng and Venerable Vigil’s combined forces, but by activating the spatial confinement, they could leave at ease. Even Venerable Vigil, who was caught off guard for a moment, fell into the trap and was temporarily confined.

But how did Lin Feng manage to break free of the confinement so quickly?

No matter how hard the four of them thought about it, they could not figure it out. But they no longer needed to think about the reason. This was because they were already facing a huge crisis, and were a fine line away from death.
