These two cultivators were Chen Feng"s followers back when he was still a child, Lei Long and Wu Jin. The two of them were also the strongest amongst his followers. They had reached the half-step Gold Immortal stage for a long time now.
And while they did find out that Chen Feng was in the Immortal Plane in the past, they did not leave the Celestial Longevity Plane. Instead, they had been – since Chen Feng went missing – going all out to recruit cultivators to fight. The moment Chen Feng entered the Celestial Longevity Plane, the two of them began making preparations. And now, the two of them had charged over.
“You"ve worked hard all these years,” Chen Feng said, his heart stirring.
“It"s not hard at all.” Lei Long laughed.
“Attack! Let me witness the fruits of your efforts throughout the years!” Chen Feng said.
“Affirmative!”
Lei Long waved his hand and the 10,000 soldiers behind him charged into the battlefield. As a result, the situation was reversed once again.
“Tsk, tsk, I can hardly hold myself back.” Sparks flew out from Wu Jin"s eyes.
“No rush. This is only the beginning,” Chen Feng said, smiling.
“These fellows from the Longevity Corps are all trash. If we really have to fight, even against those at the same level, I alone can sweep aside an entire group of them,” Wu Jin said contemptuously.
Chen Feng shook his head and laughed. Lei Long"s original form was that of a divine dragon. Naturally, it meant that his combat power was very high. Wu Jin was also not to be underestimated. His original body was that of the Divine Dark-gold Ape. In terms of talent and bodily might, he was in no way inferior to a divine dragon. Rather, they were superior. There were very few at the same level who could match him. In Chen Feng"s opinion, given how strong Wu Jin was, he could already face a Gold Immortal, albeit barely.
The two parties kept increasing the number of soldiers involved in the battle, leading to an increasingly chaotic situation. As for the four Divine Princes, they had stopped fighting. Knowing that this was not an opportune moment, Divine Prince Carefree and Ghost Matron turned around and left. As for Divine Prince Heavensfire and Divine Prince Iceform, they breathed a sigh of relief. In the earlier battle, the two of them had failed to gain the upper hand. If Divine Prince Carefree"s side had chosen to go all out, the two of them would surely end up suffering.
“These followers of yours are quite good. They are quite talented,” Divine Prince Heavensfire said, smiling.
“These talents were given to me by my father.” Chen Feng smiled as well.
“No wonder.” The two Divine Princes nodded. Given their discerning eyes, it was only natural for them to realize the talent that Lei Long and the others possessed. Given enough time to grow, they would definitely be able to reach the Divine Prince level.
“This is quite the chaotic situation,” Divine Prince Heavensfire said.
“The Longevity Corps is under the Department of Elders. Doing this is the equivalent of offending the entire Department of Elders. The quality of the current Department of Elders has deteriorated. You need to be careful,” Divine Prince Iceform said as well.
“Ha ha ha! Seniors, I believe you two also hold the position of elders, no?” Chen Feng laughed.
“Cough! Cough! Generally speaking, anyone who could cultivate up to the Divine Prince level would also have this position,” Divine Prince Heavensfire said awkwardly.
“I am aware that the Longevity Corps is very strong. However, it is not united,” Chen Feng said.
“Sigh, you little youngster! It makes sense. You were too young back when you left. You still do not have a decent understanding of our Celestial Plane. Do you think that this power you possess right now is enough to fight against the Department of Elders? Wrong. Even if you are 10 times stronger, it is still not enough,” Divine Prince Heavensfire said sincerely.
“What if I advance to the Gold Immortal stage?” Chen Feng asked with a smile.
The two Divine Princes pondered it. In the end, Divine Prince Iceform slowly said, “Hard to say. Perhaps, you will have a fighting chance.”
“Looks like seniors think very highly of me.” Chen Feng then laughed.
“That"s not the same thing. Your strength is already clearly shown here. If you can advance to the Gold Immortal stage, you will likely be able to defeat the average Divine Prince. Or perhaps, you could become slightly stronger than that,” Divine Prince Heavensfire said seriously.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The Longevity Corps had finally become annoyed. Previously, the ones that came forth were only some patrolling soldiers and the outer soldiers. It was only natural for their combat power to be far inferior compared to Tun Ri and the rest. This time, the regular army had finally come.
There were four armies in total, each consisting of 10,000 soldiers. This time, the levels of the Heavenly Immortal stage soldiers were higher and the number of half-step Gold Immortals had multiplied. More, every army had a Gold Immortal.
“Even Gold Immortals have appeared.” Chen Feng scoffed.
The faces of the two Divine Princes turned ugly to behold. It was not out of fear, but anger. Even the cultivators who were observing it all from afar began discussing the issue animatedly.
According to the rules of the Celestial Longevity Plane, unless they were at war with foreign forces, Gold Immortals must not be dispatched. At that very moment, it was clear that the Longevity Corps had broken the rules.
If this had happened elsewhere, then so be it. However, for something like this to be happening with the Longevity Corps led by the Department of Elders, even a fool could tell that this was the order of the Department of Elders.
“Since the other party is mobilizing even Gold Immortals for this, I will not hold back now,” Chen Feng said. He waved his hand and the Longevity Sword flew out. With a flash of light, four thick astral swords slashed towards the four armies.
“Sigh! Looks like the situation is spiralling out of control,” Divine Prince Heavensfire said.
“The situation spiralled out of control the very moment that Longevity Celestial arrived here in the Celestial Longevity Plane. I only hope that this will not escalate into a serious turmoil,” Divine Prince Iceform said grimly.
“Hey, it hasn"t even been all that long since he arrived, but so many Gold Immortals have already fallen. If this keeps up, a greater wave of turmoil will surely break out. Once the Boundless Corps joins in, the strength of the entire Celestial Longevity Plane will be affected.” Divine Prince Heavensfire"s face turned somewhat contorted.
“Do you not see it? The Boundless Corps has long since joined in.” Divine Prince Iceform"s eyes flashed with light.
“Yes. The situation has already escalated. Our strength is no longer sufficient. I wonder, how many people would stand on Longevity Celestial"s side this time?”
“Say, are we overthinking this? If Sir Boundless suddenly appears, what will happen?”
“What else? We will either be faced with a b.l.o.o.d.y storm or tranquillity. However, would that happen? At any rate, there has been no news of Sir Boundless since the war back then.”
