Those blades of light were the combined power of the hundreds of millions of cultivators from the East Dragon Island Alliance. With the Longevity Tower there, how could Xian Yun cut off the connection?
Back then, this power had blown up half of the white-clad cultivator"s body. This time, the Longevity Tower was focusing the power into a concentrated ma.s.s, allowing its power to multiply.
A total of four blades of light were fired out and Xian Yun was wounded. The explosion threw his figure up and he fell heavily to the floor. The attacks had nearly severed his body from the waist down.
“Subdue!”
Tower shouted and the Longevity Tower abruptly shook. Like a mountain, a talisman then descended upon Xian Yun"s body. Due to that, Xian Yun, who had only just gotten up, fell back down to the floor.
“Kid, you got careless!” Tower laughed at Xian Yun.
“Don"t be careless here. Kill him first.” While Tower was displaying arrogance, Chen Feng dared not do the same. Xian Yun was the clone of a Heavenly Immortal, after all. That was an existence far superior compared to the white-clad cultivator. Back then, just dealing with the white-clad cultivator had taken practically all of their strength. Who knows what other tricks these highly formidable Heavenly Immortals could possess?
“Don"t worry. Can you not feel it? The gate of the sixth floor is already loosening somewhat.”
“What of it?” Chen Feng asked while using the Blood Mustering Bead to smash Xian Yun. The other Ascendant Immortals also attacked Xian Yun. And while their attacks were quite disorderly, the power behind their attacks was far stronger than before.
“The sixth floor has some of my power from back then. I had sealed them up just in case. This is the right time to be using them.” Tower had only just said that when a stream of faint-yellow energy stream descended, transforming into a rope to tie up Xian Yun.
Although the rope was yellow in colour, there was also a hint of cyan there, appearing like a silky thread. Despite struggling with all his might, Xian Yun was unable to break free from the una.s.suming rope.
“From back then? That means the power of a Divine artifact!” Chen Feng grew relieved and waved his hand to send the Blood Mustering Bead smas.h.i.+ng down furiously against Xian Yun"s head again.
“I hate it when others try to plot against me. Especially those who try to s.n.a.t.c.h away the Longevity Tower,” Chen Feng said icily. He then brought out the Heaven Piercing Lance and unleashed a series of attacks against Xian Yun.
“It is useless. This is the body of a True Immortal. Your attacks will not be able to even break through his defence,” Bi Qing said, stepping forward.
“Xian Yun, what else do you have to say?” Bi Qing shouted.
“So what if you managed to catch me? You are still incapable of killing me.” Xian Yun was not feeling concerned, appearing indifferent towards his present predicament.
“If I can catch you, I can kill you,” Tower said, poking a finger out to bring down a clump of flames. The clump of flames enveloped Xian Yun and burned him.
It was the Longevity Tower"s primary essence flames. Although it was not yet at the Divine artifact tier, it was still not something that a True Immortal could endure.
As expected, Xian Yun"s face began contorting. Following Chen Feng"s instructions, the other cultivators kept attacking. Bi Qing was the only exception. Sighing, he then moved to the side.
“Eh?”
It was then that Tower let out a cry of shock and he cast a look of disbelief at Xian Yun.
“What happened?” Chen Feng noticed the abnormal reaction from Tower.
“I am actually incapable of extracting the laws inside his body.” After saying that, Tower tried again. But even after trying to do so several times in a row, he had still failed.
“Strange, what is going on here?” Tower"s eyes shone as he regarded Xian Yun in detail.
“Oh, no! Be careful!” Bi Qing suddenly shouted, having remembered something.
Weng!
Xian Yun, who was tied up, suddenly laughed and a wave of cyan-black energy radiated out from his body, making him look a notch bigger.
Accompanying the wave of cyan-black energy was a wave of invisible energy fluctuations. This wave of energy swept forward and all the cultivators there clutched their heads as they cried out. Several of them began bleeding from their seven orifices. Even Chen Feng felt as though his head would burst apart.
A soul attack! How could he still unleash such a formidable soul attack? The thought flashed through Chen Feng"s mind.
Even though he was still bound, Xian Yun swiftly flew forward, charging towards Chen Feng. A True Immortal colliding against an Earthen Immortal. Everyone there knew what the result of this collision would entail. On Chen Feng"s side, his soul was already damaged and he had a hard time focusing, let alone evade Xian Yun"s charge.
“Heh, I"ll kill you first kid! Then, I will capture the Longevity Tower"s artifact spirit. This Longevity Tower will be mine! With the Longevity Tower, I will one day conquer the Myriad Celestial Planes!” There was no longer an elegant and refined look on Xian Yun. Instead, his appearance became terribly insidious and devilish.
Despite hastily taking action, Bi Qing was still unable to reach Chen Feng in time. Surprisingly, Tower, who was closest to Chen Feng, showed no signs of helping Chen Feng.
Bang!
Black light flashed and the charging Xian Yun abruptly swerved to slam against the floor instead. The collision caused the entire Longevity Tower to shake violently.
Before they could figure out what just happened, Tower"s attack arrived. An even bigger subduing talisman landed on Xian Yun"s body. At the same time, another rope appeared as well to tie him up.
The Dark Kirin, who had been staying hidden all this time, finally appeared. Even though he was not utilizing the Dark Scripture or linking up to the Dark Plane, the Dark Kirin"s strength was already at the peak-level Ascendant Immortal stage.
The reason why the Dark Kirin had not appeared all this time was because he was digesting the immortal dao laws that Chen Feng had given him. Chen Feng had given him some of the biggest immortal dao laws obtained from the Immortal Plane.
a.s.suming his human form, the Dark Kirin held a lance in his hand – formed from the power of darkness – and stabbed Xian Yun furiously with it. As a result, a b.l.o.o.d.y hole appeared on Xian Yun"s body.
Tower immediately took action. Finally, he was able to extract a law from his body.
“Why is this fellow"s soul so firm? That can"t be. Not even Heavenly Immortals could possess this level of firmness.” Tower was still feeling puzzled.
“You took the Divine Acc.u.mulation Bead!” Bi Qing shouted, stepping forward to land a heavy slash upon Xian Yun.
Xian Yun did not reply. Instead, he roared as he struggled to break free. This time, however, his struggles were futile. In the face of the Longevity Tower"s suppressive power, he could no longer turn the situation around. He could not even fire out soul attacks anymore. Next, one law after another was extracted from his body and Xian Yun began growing weak.
“No wonder. His soul was reinforced by a Divine artifact.” Tower had already figured it out.
“Divine Acc.u.mulation Bead. Judging by its name, it must be quite the extraordinary item.” By then, Chen Feng had finally recovered. He cultivated the Longevity Scripture. He even possessed the Longevity Tower. Thus, he was able to recover quickly. Looking around, he saw that the others were still lying limply on the floor. All of that was due to Xian Yun"s soul attack.
Seeing that left Chen Feng secretly shocked. He did not think that Xian Yun could be so powerful.
“The Divine Acc.u.mulation Bead is a Divine artifact. It could nurture a cultivator"s soul. For the sake of this Divine artifact, he killed my Third Bro and Fourth Bro. Me having to reincarnate back then was probably his doing as well.” There was a slightly dazed expression on Bi Qing"s face.
“So, it"s a Divine artifact.” Chen Feng nodded and stopped asking.
“A pity, we are just killing his clone. His real body is still fine. Additionally, with a Divine artifact in hand, his cultivation base would rise rapidly. He will be even harder to deal with in the future.”
“He is still thinking of linking up to his real body, but it is already too late.” Tower was almost done.
Following the loss of his laws, Xian Yun became powerless to fight back. A total of 36 laws were extracted from him, double that of the white-clad cultivator. Moreover, these were not the average True laws. These laws had been reinforced by a Heavenly Immortal and a Divine artifact before. Due to that, the laws were superior to True laws.
Finis.h.i.+ng off Xian Yun allowed them to obtain a great harvest. As for Chen Feng, he was not a stingy person. He waved his hand and everyone there received a True law each. Those were all from the white-clad cultivator.
Speaking of which, these fellows were getting a bargain. By refining the True laws, their cultivation bases would rise by leaps and bounds.
Prince Blood Edge looked at the many laws floating within the Longevity Tower, a fiery look flas.h.i.+ng across his eyes. However, he quickly recollected himself. Even a True Immortal had died here. Thus, regardless of what he had in mind, he had to put those thoughts aside.
After obtaining the True laws, the Ascendant Immortals who were badly wounded earlier were able to swiftly recover.
The Longevity Tower swiftly broke through s.p.a.ce to return to East Dragon Island. While the others were feeling delighted, Bi Qing displayed a somewhat sombre mood. Chen Feng understood why, but there was nothing he could say to help him. All he could do was to keep it to himself. He told himself, Should the opportunity present itself, I must definitely kill Xian Yun!
After returning to East Dragon Island, everyone left the Longevity Tower. Heavenly Immortal Palace had taken action this time. Thus, for fear of some unexpected incidents, they decided to personally head out and keep watch.
Chen Feng, on the other hand, began distributing the immortal dao laws. In just a short time, he had distributed 100,000 immortal dao laws. Although they had managed to obtain a lot this time, Chen Feng did not want to bring out all of it at once. Firstly, these items had to be used during crucial moments. Secondly, Chen Feng did not want to give them the immortal dao laws for nothing. The immortal dao laws were reserved for the elites and talents.
Back then, four True Immortals had been competing for the immortal dao laws only for Xian Yun to stop them. If they take action again, we will no longer have an expert to help us. Chen Feng shook his head. He was also aware that cultivators at that level would not casually take action. They had a reason for coming to Eternal World.
“Prince Blood Edge, can a True Immortal from your Blood Plane come over this time?” Chen Feng suddenly asked.
“I am currently contacting the Blood Plane, trying hard to get a senior at the True Immortal stage to come over as soon as possible.”
“Ha ha! When the time comes, we will need the a.s.sistance of the Blood Plane"s senior, then.”
“We"re just helping each other here.”
While there was no way to tell if either side was being truthful or not, there was quite the amiable atmosphere there.
“Chen Feng!” It was then that Liu Wuxiang came over, leading several cultivators over with him.
“Brother Liu.”
“How shameful. Not only did we fail to help out with anything this time, we even took advantage of you.” Liu Wuxiang was feeling terribly embarra.s.sed. This Heavenstealing Operation had benefitted Liu Wuxiang"s group as well. Many of them were able to break through to the next level. It was quite ironic. Their Blissful Island sent 100,000 cultivators over to help East Dragon Island. As cultivators from the Immortal Plane, they did not expect to encounter such a situation here in Eternal World. In the end, the Heavenstealing Operation helped them grow stronger instead.
“Brother Liu, what are you saying? We are allies here. We"re something of a family here. There is no such thing as taking advantage of one another. Besides, we will still be needing your strength.” Chen Feng waved his hand.
