Chapter 909 Mobilizing the Longevity Tower

Translator: podao001

They had said that they will let him go. Chen Feng had also handed over the Longevity Tower. However, how could they just let Chen Feng leave?

Chen Feng sneered inwardly. However, he had long since prepared for this. Runes flashed out from his body and his figure flashed away, re-appearing somewhere 50,000 kilometres away from them.

“A Lightning Flash Talisman!” Some of the cultivators were shocked to see that.

“Humph! I knew that you fellows cannot be trusted to keep your end of the bargain!” Chen Feng’s voice made its way over to them. However, they ignored Chen Feng. At present, the Longevity Tower was the most important thing here. Not a single one of them was willing to give up on the Longevity Tower to pursue Chen Feng.

With the appearance of the Longevity Tower, Chen Feng was no longer important.

As for Chen Feng, he did not stop. Utilizing the power of the Lightning Flash Talisman on his body, he continued fleeing, only stopping after covering a distance of five million kilometres. After that, he waved his hand and a spatial crack appeared before him.

After Chen Feng entered the spatial crack, it disappeared. Where did Chen Feng go to? He had entered the Longevity Tower.

At that very moment, Zi Doutian was holding onto the Longevity Tower. He himself had only just snatched it over from another person.

However, after obtaining the Longevity Tower, Zi Doutian was struck three times in a row. Although he had managed to obtain the Longevity Tower, he had no chance to charge out at all.

As predicted, it did not take long before one of the attacks on Zi Doutian caused him to lose the Longevity Tower, which ended up in Nameless Brahma’s hand again. There were two cultivators from the Celestial Brahma Plane, after all.

Chen Feng sat inside the Longevity Tower, munching on some spiritual fruits as he watched the fight outside with interest.

“To think that I would end up drawing these fellows over before even entering the Immortal Plane. Sigh! To be making contact with the various Celestial Planes so early on is not a good thing.” Chen Feng shook his head.

No one responded. Tower was still sleeping. Tower had been asleep for a long time now and Chen Feng could feel that the Longevity Tower’s strength was slowly rising. Sensing that, Chen Feng knew that Tower must have made some breakthroughs.

Chen Feng had drawn up all kinds of plans since the very beginning. In the end, he decided to risk it with this plan. As he had predicted, it did not matter if the other party consisted of ordinary humans or exalted cultivators. In the face of a treasure, all of them would show greed. Rather, there were times when the greed of cultivators surpassed that of ordinary humans.

For Chen Feng, fighting these fellows was simply an impossibility. Just a single one of them was causing Chen Feng’s scalp to go numb. Go fight tens of them? That was suicide.

Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou!

The Hell Dog, Two-headed Windbolt Wyrm, tree yao and tiger yao appeared beside Chen Feng. They silently observed what was happening outside.

All four were equipped with an Immortal artifact each. Looking at them, Chen Feng secretly sighed. If only they could advance to become Yao Overlords, he would truly be in possession of real trump cards. They would truly be able to help him out big time.

Yao Overlord. It was a title for those in the Yao Plane. In order to obtain this title, they must at least be at the Ascendant Immortal stage.

Although the cultivation talents of the Hell Dog and the others were different, every successive cultivation level required a long time and a great deal of luck to reach. Thus, cultivating up to the Ascendant Immortal stage was no easy task.

Naturally, there were also shortcuts for that. If they could obtain the corpses of Yao Overlords, the time needed to reach that level would be reduced. Devouring the essence, energy and soul powers of these Ascendant Immortals will work as well.

That was Chen Feng’s plan to strengthen his own force. He will not go soft on slaughtering these Ascendant Immortals. Of course, he first needed to possess the strength to do so.

Sou! Sou! Sou!

Three more people appeared beside Chen Feng. They were Bi Qing, Heavenly Premier Absolute and Patriarch Heavenly Sword.

Chen Feng had only invited the three. He was unable to trust the others. In fact, he was also not 100% sure about these three. However, he had a feeling that the three of them did not have bad intentions towards him.

This was just something of a sixth sense, an intuitive feeling. He was unable to get into the details himself.

At that very moment, Heavenly Premier Absolute and Patriarch Heavenly Sword were gaping at the fight outside.

After some time had passed, Patriarch Heavenly Sword said, “Who are these fellows?”

“Hey, Chen Feng! Just who are you? To think that you would have enemies like these. Looks like I will be taking a huge loss for agreeing to come,” Heavenly Premier Absolute said.

“Yes. Just one careless mistake and we’ll end up dying,” Patriarch Heavenly Sword said as well.

Heavenly Premier Absolute and Patriarch Heavenly Sword looked at each other. There was a look of concern on their faces. They had explored outer space before and could be considered as experienced fellows. However, witnessing the might of the Ascendant Immortals from the various Celestial Planes, the two of them could sense just how big of a difference there was between them.

“Are you two regretting it now?” Chen Feng laughed.

“Yes. I really regret it.”

“One immortal technique each,” Chen Feng continued.

“Immortal technique? Deal!”

“I’ll go for broke!”

Chen Feng waved his hand and two clumps of light flew out. One was caught by Patriarch Heavenly Sword while the other one was caught by Heavenly Premier Absolute. Just sensing the contents for a moment caused them both to smile so widely their eyes nearly disappeared.

Naturally, Chen Feng would not be handing over the secret techniques from the Longevity Scripture to them. By now, Chen Feng was already in possession of several Immortal-tier scriptures. These two immortal techniques had been from the Immortal Skylodge Codex.

At any rate, he would not be using them. Utilizing them for favours instead was not a bad choice. He would not be incurring any losses from this.

“Sigh! Senior Absolute, no matter how you cut it, I am a student of Absolute Academy. Senior Heavenly Sword, you as well. I am an honorary elder of Heavenly Sword Faction. To be taking advantage of my current situation like this, isn’t it a little too much?” Looking at how widely they were smiling, Chen Feng could not stop himself from firing out some words.

“We will be risking our lives next. How can you expect us to do our best without giving us some benefits?” Heavenly Premier Absolute said as-a-matter-of-factly.

“You have a point.” Chen Feng nodded. “Maybe these fellows would fight to the death. If that happens, we will be able to save ourselves the effort.”

“Fighting to the death is an impossibility. They are not fools. Incurring some damage is possible. However, it will be difficult to see deaths here. Although the current battle is intense, they are still not utilizing their real abilities. Heh! Even though the ones they sent over are just clones, they are still so reserved with their secret techniques.” Bi Qing revealed a derisive smile.

Bi Qing’s words rang true. They had been fighting one another for quite some time now. Although some of them had been wounded in the fight, not a single one of them was badly wounded. Practically every single one of the cultivators there had fought each other before and the Longevity Tower had taken turns falling into each of their hands. Only Tian Yun and Liu Feng were the exceptions. The rest of the cultivators there were taking precautions to ensure that the two of them did not get their hands on the Longevity Tower. The Longevity Tower was an item from the Celestial Longevity Plane, after all. Should the two of them obtain the Longevity Tower and something unexpected happened as a result, it would be problematic for them.

Even so, a chance finally came and the Longevity Tower fell into Tian Yun’s hand.

“No!”

Some of the cultivators cried out and some revealed contorted looks. Some even secretly backed away.

After getting hold of the Longevity Tower, Tian Yun laughed skywards.

Even though they had obtained the Longevity Tower, Tian Yun and Liu Feng did not attempt to charge out. Instead, they laughed loudly as they linked up with the Celestial Longevity Plane.

Boom!

This was different from the usual link established under normal circumstances. This time, the two of them had made use of a secret technique, utilizing the Longevity Tower itself to link up to the Celestial Longevity Plane.

A passageway opened and a force surged ferociously into the Longevity Tower, causing it to emit a roaring sound. Next, the Longevity Tower’s size grew and it exerted a suction force to ceaselessly devour the power charging at it from the Celestial Longevity Plane.

“Tower! Are you all right?!” Sensing how wild the tower was becoming, Chen Feng grew apprehensive and he contacted Tower.

“They’re just giving me more power. This is a good thing. Do not worry. Also, if there is nothing, don’t disturb me.” Tower said before falling silent once more.

Hearing that, Chen Feng grew at ease. He immediately designated a separate space for him and those beside him. There, they quietly observed the actions of Tian Yun and Liu Feng.

“Oh, no! Everyone, run!”

“Humph! What is there to fear? Isn’t it just at the Immortal tier? Join forces and kill them both!”

“That’s right! No matter how powerful the two of them may be, there are only two of them here. Besides, the Longevity Tower only has the strength of an Immortal artifact. By joining forces, we will be able to do it.”

“What do you know? This is the Longevity Tower! Even 10,000 Immortal artifacts cannot hold a candle to it! This is a Divine artifact! Not an Immortal artifact!”

As the situation devolved into chaos, Tian Yun and Liu Feng mobilized the Longevity Tower to attack.

A faint-yellow beam of light shot out from each of the nine-storey Longevity Tower’s floor. The nine beams of light appeared somewhat weak. However, they instantly pierced through two of the opposing cultivators. Seeing that, a horrified look appeared on the faces of the other cultivators and they swiftly put some distance between themselves and the Longevity Tower.

Another nine beams of light shot out. This time, some of them brought out their magic treasures to block the attack. The magic treasures were all Immortal artifacts. However, even Immortal artifacts were incapable of blocking this attack from the Longevity Tower.

Chi! Chi! Chi!

The faint-yellow beams of light easily pierced through the Immortal artifacts. Rather, in the face of the beams of light, the Immortal artifacts became as fragile as a piece of paper.

Hmm, there is a faint-green colour within the yellow light. Looks like these two are really putting in a lot into this. To think that they would be able to mobilize the Longevity Tower to this extent. Chen Feng smiled.

“Chen Feng, just what level is your magic treasure at?” Patriarch Heavenly Sword could not stop himself from asking, a look of utter shock on his face.

“Yes. It doesn’t look like an ordinary Immortal artifact to me,” Heavenly Premier Absolute said as well.

“Just an ordinary Immortal artifact.” Chen Feng chuckled.

“Humph! Characters like these would come over to fight each other for an ordinary Immortal artifact? I don’t believe it.” Patriarch Heavenly Sword snorted. He did not buy it.

“Wait. Earlier, I heard one of them call this a Divine artifact,” Heavenly Premier Absolute said.

“Divine artifact? What artifact tier is that? Could it be even higher than the Immortal tier?”

Although the two of them had already cultivated up to the Ascendant Immortal stage, their levels were still relatively low. The strongest magic treasure they had ever seen was only at the Immortal tier. Objects like Divine artifacts were existences that would not even exist in the legends that they know of.

“Ha ha ha ha! You guys are dead! Not a single one of you will be able to escape!”

“Kill them! Kill them all!”

Tian Yun and Liu Feng had seemingly gone mad. They summoned the power of the Celestial Longevity Plane with reckless abandon and empowered the Longevity Tower to crush the opposing cultivators.

By then, two of the opposing cultivators had been killed while the others were already fleeing. Practically all of them had been wounded.

“I said it many times before! Never, never, never let those two get their hands on the Longevity Tower! But no, why believe me? Well, now we’re all going to die!” Nameless Brahma screamed.

“Saying that now is pointless! Nameless Brahma, you have many tricks up your sleeves. Hurry up and think of something.” Zi Doutian was the most anxious one amongst them all. He came with his real body, after all. Should he die here, he would truly meet death.
