Chapter 814 Monster

Translator: podao001

Thinking about Chen Feng, the feelings of anxiousness within their hearts lessened somewhat. Chen Feng had been able to put up a fight against an Ascendant Immortal back then. Taking action to save them should not be an issue, right?

However, when they think back to the peculiar attitudes displayed by these cultivators and their number, over 100 of them, Lan Ling’s group felt their hearts mired in worries once more.

No matter how powerful Chen Feng may be, he was just a Human Immortal. It was likely that he had already exhausted himself greatly when he fought against the Ascendant Immortal earlier.

“We need to figure a way to escape on our own. We cannot always rely on Chen Feng. In order to bring out such a formidable power, I believe that Chen Feng would have to pay quite the price,” Feng Jian whispered.

Lan Ling and Hu Xian’er nodded. Chen Xing’er, however, was not with them. She was tied up a certain distance away from them.

The peculiar sacrificial ceremony continued and some more captured cultivators were killed, their essence, energy and soul power used as offerings. As for the opened passageway, it grew more stable and strands of formidable aura emerged from the passageway. The formidable and terrifying aura did not escape the notice of the captured cultivators.

Sensing the aura, the strange barbarians instantly screamed in excitement and an atmosphere of madness rose from them. Due to that, the rate at which they were killing the captured cultivators gradually grew.

It would not take long before Lan Ling and the others were killed off as well. Suddenly, space fluctuated and another group of captured cultivators appeared. Seeing the captured cultivators, they all sighed. Those who could enter the Four Great Holylands were all outstanding geniuses. However, too many of them had died here on Planet Voidsoul. In this sacrificial ceremony, the batches of cultivators killed off were treated like lambs to the slaughter.

Chen Feng, meanwhile, was hiding within void space as he secretly observed the situation.

He had sensed something amiss earlier. However, before he could notify Lan Ling and the others, the trap had begun springing on them. After that, in order to not alarm the strange cultivators, Chen Feng held himself back and chose not to attack. Additionally, he also wanted to see what exactly they were up to.

In fact, there was another reason. Chen Feng could faintly sense danger.

By then, Chen Feng could already determine that the danger rested within the passageway. Chen Feng had recovered his memories and even the legacies kept within his genes. Thus, he already knew what was happening.

It is said that Savage World was founded by the Barbarian Tribes. The Barbarian Tribes are one of the most ancient races within the universe. At their peak, they could even fight against the Heaven-defying races from the various Celestial Planes. However, due to some unknown reasons and infighting, their overall strength fell, growing weaker and weaker until they had to settle down on just a cultivation world.

During that era of internal strife, one of the tribes came to worship the Wicked Barbarian Deities. One of the things they believe in is in offering sacrifices to summon the Barbarian Deities. Either that or receive the blessings from the Barbarian Deities to strengthen themselves. These strange cultivators must be from the tribe that worships the Wicked Barbarian Deities.

Chen Feng found that information from his sea of wisdom. After a quick analysis, Chen Feng was able to determine the origins of the strange cultivators.

However, how strong is the Barbarian Deity that are they summoning? If it’s a real Barbarian Deity, I can only run away, Immortal artefacts notwithstanding. However, that guy has yet to detect my existence. Looks like the other party is not a particularly powerful fellow.

If that’s the case, in order to avoid having anything unexpected happen, I should hurry up and rescue Lan Ling and the others first, Chen Feng thought.

It was then that something unexpected happen. Seemingly displeased with how slow the barbarian cultivators were with the sacrificial ceremony, the existence within the other end of the passageway grew impatient as it sent out a savage-looking talon. With a furious swipe of the talon, several cultivators were turned into a mist of blood. Next, it exerted a suction force to devour all of the mist of blood.

So powerful! That’s not good. Chen Feng’s heart lurched and the attack that he had been preparing was instantly fired out to strike the talon.

Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!

A series of sparks flew about, but Chen Feng’s attack had failed to break through the talon’s defence. Although barbarian cultivators were known for their formidable fleshly bodies, seeing how ineffective the attack was, Chen Feng grew even more concerned.

“Run!” Chen Feng waved his hand and grand dao powers surged forth to enter and circulate within the bodies of Lan Ling and the others. Instantly, the sealing powers restraining them were destroyed.

However, the talon from the passageway then grasped at Chen Feng. It was just a simple grasping move. And yet, even before it could reach Chen Feng, he could already feel the pressure bearing down on him. All his muscles rang, seemingly chafing against one another.

Shua!

Energy streams surged behind Chen Feng as he took a step forward to evade the incoming attack.

This move from Chen Feng was none other than the Longevity Steps. The energy streams behind him, though, were caused by the Longevity Wings. Only, Chen Feng had yet to even grasp the basics of the technique.

The Longevity Wings was a divine movement technique of the Longevity Clan. It was not something that the average energy condensation technique could compare against. Upon successfully cultivating the Longevity Wings, Chen Feng would be able to jump through space with just a flap of the pair of wings. Even the distance between the various planes could be ignored. At its zenith, it could even affect time. It was something of a wondrous secret technique for absolute movement.

In Chen Feng’s case, he was only able to start practicing the Longevity Wings in advance because he had linked up to the Celestial Longevity Plane, thereby receiving the empowerment of the celestial plane’s aura. Only, cultivating up to the minor success phase was not something that could be done in a short time.

That said, although Chen Feng had yet to even reach minor success phase in his cultivation of the Longevity Wings, by complementing it with the Longevity Steps, he was able to evade the deadly attack.

The power of an Ascendant Immortal, maybe even greater. Unfortunately for it, it has yet to fully recover. So, it is unable to jump through space to come over here. Killing me will likely be an impossibility for it. Chen Feng gradually grew more confident. He waved his hand, sending a wave of sky-inundating, blood-coloured light forward, wanting to cut off the passageway.

“You dare interfere with our sacrificial ceremony? After we capture you, we will have you suffer from 3,000 types of torture!” One of the barbarian cultivators, an old man in animal hide, pointed at Chen Feng and shouted.

“Go! Capture him!”

Several barbarian cultivators lunged at Chen Feng. All of them were bare-chested, their rock-hard abs put on full display as they radiated formidable power. In the face of their charge, Chen Feng could even sense the mighty blood energy radiating out from them.

“What are you guys doing? Why are you still fighting? Hurry up and run!” It was then that Chen Feng noticed Lan Ling’s group engaged in a fight against the barbarian cultivators. Seeing that, he could not stop himself from bellowing at them. The only reason he had chosen to attack was to rescue them. And yet, they had stayed behind to fight the barbarian cultivators.

“None of you can leave! All of you will become food for our Barbarian Deity!” the old man who was seemingly in charge of the sacrificial ceremony shouted.

“The real Barbarian Deities will not devour humans. Looks like you fellows are from the barbarian tribe that worships the Wicked Barbarian Deities.” Chen Feng laughed, knowing that he had guessed correctly.

“How could you know that?” The barbarian cultivators were all astounded and they all stared at Chen Feng, killing intent radiated out from their eyes.

“Attack together! Work together with the great Barbarian Deity to kill them all. That kid, especially, must die!”

Most of the hundred plus barbarian cultivators were Human Immortals. Swiftly, they surrounded the place to block off all routes of escape. Some even began killing off the other captured cultivators.

The captured cultivators were truly in a wretched situation. Chen Feng had only chosen to rescue Lan Ling’s group of four. As for the others, Chen Feng did not bother.

In just the blink of an eye, several of the captured cultivators had been killed.

“Fellow friend from Absolute Academy, please help. Let’s work together to defeat them!” Finally, one of them cried towards Chen Feng for help.

“Fellow friend, please help! I am Li Yihui, from Four Cardinals Academy. Once I am free, I will surely reward you generously!”

𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

“I am a student of Eternal Academy. Friend, please help!”

In the face of getting butchered like lambs, none of them could remain fearless. At any rate, the more talented a cultivator was, the more fearful of death that cultivator would become. They were characters with a great future, how could they accept dying just like this?

“Fine!” Chen Feng agreed. He had his own plans. He wanted to borrow their strength to fight against the barbarian cultivators.

He himself needed to block the attacks from the talon.

Boom!

After its attack missed, the talon turned slightly to attack once more. This time, however, the talon had grown a notch bigger and it felt as though there was something burning within it. Its five claws blotted the sun as they enveloped the space around Chen Feng, giving Chen Feng the impression that there was no escape for him.

Chen Feng’s figure stretched and his four limbs extended. His Four Extreme acupoints spun into action to reign over the four directions, connecting east, south, west and north. Then, the energy streams surged behind his back again as he stepped forward to evade the talon.

“So, it’s a minor fellow from the Longevity Clan. Your cultivation of the Longevity Steps is not bad. However, your cultivation base is too weak while your Longevity Wings have yet to gain form. As long as you leave this instant, I will not trouble you.” An ancient voice emerged from the passageway to enter Chen Feng’s ear.

“So good? Fine, you have a deal. However, I want to take my friends with me.” Chen Feng pointed at Lan Ling’s group.

“Impossible.”

“Can we talk about this? Given your level, will you even care about minor cultivators like us?”

“There will be no negotiations. Young man, I am only letting you go because you are a cultivator from the Longevity Clan. You want a mile after I have given you an inch? Do not blame me for being rude!” The last few words from the ancient voice were like booming thunder. At the same time, the passageway up in the sky grew another notch bigger.

This time, a massive and muscular arm emerged from the passageway. The palm was so massive, it seemed capable of crushing a planet. With a swipe from the palm, spatial energies flowed about turbulently and Chen Feng felt his heart pounding.

“Kid, you have one last chance. It is not too late to leave now.”

“I don’t feel like leaving. I want to see just how powerful the Barbarian Tribes’ Barbarian Deities are. Do you really have the ability to fight against the Heaven-defying races?” Chen Feng snickered and both his hands pushed forward, sending two energy streams forward. This time, Chen Feng did not evade the incoming attack. Instead, he simply attacked the incoming palm.

Boom!

With just one collision, Chen Feng was sent flying. However, his feet kept moving about even as he was hurtling backwards, leaving one footprint after another upon the sky. Surprisingly, the footprints remained in the sky, not dissipating away at all. This was because Chen Feng’s cultivation of the Longevity Steps had improved recently.
