Chapter 1027 Begin Attacking

Translator: podao001

“To think that there is still another True Immortal!” Huo Yunlong, who was already inside the Primary Spirit Diagram of First Origin, was left in a cold sweat. That beam of light earlier was not an ordinary attack. A True Immortal had mobilized the warship to fire out that attack. A True Immortal alone was strong enough to deal with Huo Yunlong, let alone a sneak attack from a True Immortal.

“I have long since sensed that they have another expert lurking around. Finally, the other fellow decided to take action.” Chen Feng, though, laughed.

“You can still laugh at a time like this? What should we do? Should we leave this place first? Just a random warship from the other party could have two True Immortals. They have 100,000 warships in total. Heavens, I cannot even imagine it.” Huo Yunlong felt terribly shocked.

“They are the ones who attacked us first. Is Brother Huo willing to just stomach this loss?” Chen Feng said with a smile.

“What else can we do? They are stronger than us.”

“Haven’t you noticed? Forget two True Immortals, even if they have more people on their side, they will still die after meeting me today,” Chen Feng said, a somewhat prideful tone in his voice.

“You mean?” Huo Yunlong’s eyes lit up.

“Don’t forget, I have two pseudo-Divine artifacts on me. They fell into my trap the moment they attacked.”

After saying that, Chen Feng waved his hand and Huo Yunlong was able to see what was happening outside. After Huo Yunlong entered the array diagram, True Immortal Soulsift had wanted to attack the array diagram when the starry space around him suddenly flashed with light. Seeing that, True Immortal Soulsift immediately knew that something had happened.

This True Immortal was very vigilant. He instantly rushed back into the warship, the other Ascendant Immortals right behind him. And so, the warship was the only thing left hovering in space. With a pulse, it covered a distance of over one million li.

And yet, no matter how hard the Immortal-tier warship flew forward, the surrounding starry space remained the same.

“Did we fall prey to an illusion?”

“No, this is world power, an inner dimension. We have fallen into their trap.”

“Figure a way to charge out!”

The voices rang out from the warship. Next, a formidable power burst out from the warship as it attempted to break space and perform a spatial jump.

Unexpectedly, the surrounding space suddenly became chaotic and various forces intertwined to form streams of invisible ropes, tying up the warship.

“It’s the Bedazzling Star Map! So, you have already set it up beforehand,” said a shocked Huo Yunlong.

“Of course. Although the Bedazzling Star Map is just a map, it is still a pseudo-Divine artifact. Now that they have entered, even if I do not do anything, they will have a hard time getting out.” Chen Feng laughed.

“Ha ha ha! So it is. Unexpectedly, you are so insidious.”

“I’m not being insidious. This is just strategy. All right. Although we managed to entrap them, dealing with the two True Immortals will take quite some effort. Truth be told, I am not worried about those two. I am worried that more pursuers will come over.”

Even as Chen Feng said that, he directed the Bedazzling Star Map to continuously fly through space. After an indeterminate period of flight, where they practically flew across an entire star region, they finally stopped.

“I wonder how’s Bi Qing doing?” Huo Yunlong suddenly asked.

“Don’t worry. He used to be a Heavenly Immortal, after all. He should have some means to handle it.” Chen Feng did not feel too worried for Bi Qing.

“Heavenly Immortal! When can I cultivate up to that level?”

“You should focus on cultivating up to the True Immortal stage first. Given your qualifications, without any fortuitous encounters, you can forget about ever reaching the Heavenly Immortal stage.”

“What about you, then?”

“Me? He he he! True Immortal, Heavenly Immortal. Even those levels higher than them are but steps that I have to go through in my path of cultivation.”

“Humph, what boastful words! You should just focus on finishing off the two True Immortals first. We’ve already agreed earlier. The warship is mine.”

“Don’t worry. I have long since taken action. Look, it’s starting to take effect.”

As expected, the warship that was drifting aimlessly inside the Bedazzling Star Map’s starry space began swaying. More, countless patterns appeared on the body of the warship. It was unknown just how the patterns came about. Seemingly with a life of its own, the patterns then moved into the warship.

“Hex power!” Huo Yunlong exclaimed. “The warship is mine! Don’t break it!”

“We may not have a choice. Their side has two True Immortals, after all. They will not be easy to handle,” Chen Feng said with a chuckle.

“Eh, that’s not right. As I recall, the Hex Sceptre should just be a high-grade Immortal artifact. It should not possess this level of power, no?” Huo Yunlong suddenly said with a puzzled tone.

“You were mistaken. Surface wise, the Hex Sceptre is just a high-grade Immortal artifact, but the power inside it is much stronger than that. Additionally, in my hands, the power it can unleash will become even stronger. Enough. Watch as I handle them.”

“Humph!” Huo Yunlong scoffed and said nothing. Truth be told, he was feeling somewhat unhappy. Seeing Chen Feng in possession of so many good items left him feeling envious.

Surface wise, the warship was constantly shaking, but the effect of the hex power on this Immortal-tier warship was actually not great. That said, the warship was presently inside the Bedazzling Star Map, a pseudo-Divine artifact. By unleashing the power of this Bedazzling Star Map, killing off a few True Immortals should not be an issue. Chen Feng was presently linking up to the Bedazzling Star Map to attack the other party. It was also receiving some assistance from the Primary Spirit Diagram of First Origin.

Chen Feng’s goal was to trap the other party and sap away their strength before finishing them off.

Inside the warship, space was stacked together, each stretching outwards to a nigh-immeasurable width. This was an Immortal artifact. The inner dimension inside it was comparable to a world. There, within a gaudily decorated palace, several cultivators were crying out wretchedly. Some failed to endure and they rolled on the floor.

Even when facing their Heavenly Tribulations, Ascendant Immortals had never had to face something like this.

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

Suddenly, two mid-level Ascendant Immortals roared out furiously like wild animals and black light kept flowing out from his bodies. Amidst the black light were strands of bloody light. Instantly, the black light enveloped the two of them before transforming into mysterious patterns. In the end, the patterns embedded themselves into the cultivators’ eyes. Their eyes, which had revealed a struggling look, turned dazed before turning bloodthirsty. Next, they attacked the cultivators beside them.

“Humph!”

True Immortal Soulsift’s face sank and he waved his hand. The two Ascendant Immortals who were going crazy instantly fell to the ground, lifeless.

“Despicable!”

“It’s hex power.”

“Not just that. There is also the power of the pseudo-Divine artifact. The other party is truly insidious. To think that they would have two pseudo-Divine artifacts. They even set a trap for us.”

In addition to True Immortal Soulsift, there was another True Immortal with the appearance of a middle-aged man. This True Immortal was not as calm as True Immortal Soulsift and a look of fear flashed across his face.

“Humph! Earthmount, you’re not afraid, are you? We have entered this immortal region for 10,000 years now and have killed who knows how many cultivators and snatched countless resources. Are you afraid of something so minor?”

“Nonsense, I am not afraid. I just feel like this situation is quite strange. I can also sense danger. Don’t forget, my senses are better than yours,” True Immortal Earthmount said with a slightly guilt-ridden voice.

“Danger? Ha ha ha! Think of all that we’ve been through. How many dangerous situations have we encountered before in the past? Two pseudo-Divine artifacts! This is good! By killing them off, we get one each. With a pseudo-Divine artifact, our positions will rise up by another level,” True Immortal Soulsift said, laughing. Even so, a slight look of concern glinted across his eyes.

“That is true.” True Immortal Earthmount replied with a dry laugh.

“Senior, save me!”

The palace had a total of 40 Ascendant Immortals. At that very moment, all 40 were fighting back against the invasion of the hex power. Only a handful of them could continue to fight back while the rest were already on the verge of losing themselves.

Roar! Roar!

Finally, another cultivator lost himself, completely eroded by the hex power and transformed into a mindless killing machine. Next, he pounced wildly upon the companion beside him.

“Not enough! Still not enough!” Chen Feng’s face was somewhat grim and the Hex Sceptre in his hand thrummed as he continued to stir out its hex power. The hex power made its way through layer after layer of space to enter the warship.

The power of darkness, chaos, soul and even the power of some magic treasures assailed the warship from every direction. The interior of the Bedazzling Star Map was no different from Chen Feng’s domain.

“You’re really insidious.” Seeing that, Huo Yunlong felt his hairs standing on end.

“I would personally prefer fighting them head-on, but I am not strong enough for that.” Chen Feng shook his head and continued to focus wholehearted on the warship. Regardless of what methods he used, the ones that could kill off his opponents were the best ones.

All the Ascendant Immortals had fallen into a state of turmoil. As for the two True Immortals there, it was not that they did not want to help the Ascendant Immortals, but they themselves were facing the same attacks. Furthermore, they would still need to take on even stronger attacks later on. At that very moment, they didn’t even know if they would be able to preserve their own lives. How could they help others?

In the end, tens of the Ascendant Immortals were killed. As for Chen Feng, he had seemingly reached a certain limit as well. Releasing a lengthy exhalation, his face turned dark and he began regulating his rate of breathing.

He was not concerned that they would charge out. In order to break out from the Bedazzling Star Map, they would need the assistance of several True Immortals in attacking the Bedazzling Star Map from the outside.

“You’re a real vicious one. Still, you sure dealt with them quickly. To think that you can so quickly deal with those True Immortals. Seeing the Hex Sceptre in your hands make me envious now,” Huo Yunlong said with a chuckle.

After Chen Feng recovered his energy, the other party finally managed to track down Chen Feng’s aura. The two True Immortals abandoned their warship and tore the layers of restrictions before them as they charged towards Chen Feng and Huo Yunlong.

“Do you want to fight a True Immortal?” Chen Feng suddenly asked.

“What?” Huo Yunlong was taken aback by that. Immediately, however, he realized what Chen Feng meant. The space before him shifted and he appeared before True Immortal Earthmount.

“Chen Feng!” Huo Yunlong shouted furiously.

“Back then, you successfully overcame your Heavenly Tribulation, but your cultivation base has yet to stabilize. This is the best chance for you to train yourself.” Chen Feng’s voice rang out from beside Huo Yunlong’s ear.
