Everlasting Chapter 755 Chaotic Battle (1/2)

“We… forget it, it's too dangerous. Should we fail to extricate ourselves, we'll become mindless killing machines.” The Divine Phantom Mink was the first to shake his head.
Even so, the tiger yao and Two-headed Windbolt Wyrm revealed looks of eagerness. Only, the situation outside was too peculiar. Not to mention, given their level of strength, they would not have any advantage against those cultivators there. That was even more true of the Demon Kings. Their cultivation bases were simply insufficient. Thus, after hesitating for a moment, they suppressed their desires to go out.
“Heh, that will depend on the situation. You fellows might need to go out later,” Tower said with a chuckle.
This scarlet pillar of light was not the only one playing host to a battle between cultivators. There were 108 scarlet pillars of light rising out from the city and tens of them were playing host to murderous cultivators. All of them had become like bloodthirsty mosquitoes. The moment they entered the vicinity of the pillar of light, they were sucked into the sea of killing intent. Incapable of resisting the killing urges, they began attacking one another in a frenzy.
As the number of casualties kept rising, streams of blood energy began permeating the entire city to give the already eerie city a more mysterious aura.
By now, one third of the cultivators who entered the city had fallen into a state of frenzy. Every one of them had the same idea, to find the scarlet pillar of light. Due to that, they were all affected by the b.l.o.o.d.y wave of light fired out from the scarlet pillars of light.
As for the city, it had completely emerged from the ground and was standing firmly upon the lands of the Deathly Desert. The 108 scarlet pillars of light that were rising up from the city were so dazzling that even cultivators on other worlds could see them, let alone the cultivators in the Heavensday Battlefield. All the cultivators scattered across the vast Heavensday Battlefield were able to see it. Even if they could not see it, they could still sense it. At any rate, the power emanating from this city was too great.
Since Chen Feng and the others entered the city, one or two more cultivators would come almost every other day and enter the city.
On this particular day, a youngster with a bewitching appearance and a vertical eye on his forehead arrived before the city, a great halberd in his hand. No gate appeared on the walls of the city. It was as though the gate that had appeared in the past was just something that would only appear for a short time.
“Heh, it really is the Ancient Heavensday City! This is something that True Immortal Heavensday built. It is said that this city contains the relics left behind by True Immortal Heavensday. Not even the war back then was able to bring out this city. Unexpectedly, I would be able to find it.” The cultivator did not simply fly into the city. Instead, he brought out a dilapidated map. After he spread open the map, lines emerged from it before flaring with light. Next, it charged forward to open up a pa.s.sageway on the wall of the city.
The cultivator then leisurely walked into the pa.s.sageway, which closed up behind him.
Sou! Sou!
After the disappearance of the cultivator, two cracks slowly opened up somewhere nearby and two cultivators, one fat and one thin, flew out from the cracks. They gently landed on the ground and silently regarded the city.
“It's the Ancient Heavensday City that True Immortal Heavensday left behind. We came to the right place.”
“That earlier was Patriarch Truemoon from Mystheaven Sect. Tens of thousands of years ago, he was already at the high-level Earthen Immortal stage. Even if we are to join forces, we can only choose to run away in the end against him. Just what kind of price did he pay to create a pa.s.sageway to this place?”
“Who cares about it? Patriarch Truemoon is not to be trifled with. So, we'll just have to be cautious.”
Next, the two cultivators entered the city as well.
After that, more cultivators appeared. Some were from the Ghost Plane and some were from the Nether Plane. There were also cultivators from other worlds. In addition, there were also cultivators from unknown worlds. Unlike the previous batches of cultivators, the number of high-level cultivators amongst the newcomers kept rising. Occasionally, a high-level Earthen Immortal would appear as well.
Another difference between them and the previous batch was in their knowledge. They knew of this city's name and origin.
Eternal World…
Heavenly Sword Faction…
A towering mountain peak pierced high into the clouds and atop this mountain was an exquisite pavilion. Despite its exposed position, the environment within the pavilion was as warm as spring. No matter how strong the blade-like winds outside were, they were incapable of making their way inside the pavilion.
Jian Xiaotian, Wen Shaoxiu and some other disciples were inside the pavilion and they chatted while drinking some beverages.
Jian Xiaotian had already risen up to the half-step Human Immortal stage and the aura emanating out from his body was vigorous and stable while energy streams spun within his eyes. There was only a small distance left between him and the Human Immortal stage.
As for Wen Shaoxiu, Jian Zhiqiu and Li s.h.i.+long, their auras were as restrained as a bottomless abyss. They sat cross-legged and their act of breathing seemed to conform to their surroundings. Those with experience would be able to tell that this was the sign that they were Human Immortals.
“Junior Brother Xiaotian, looks like you managed to gain a lot from your cultivation retreat. One step is all that is left between you and the Human Immortal stage. Congratulations!” Wen Shaoxiu said smilingly.
“Looks like Junior Brother Xiaotian will be surpa.s.sing us soon,” Li s.h.i.+long said as well.
“Don't make fun of me. You fellows are already Human Immortals. Heavenly Tribulation is not easy to overcome. Who knows how long it will be before I get to rise up to the Human Immortal stage?” Jian Xiaotian said with a wry smile.
“Ha ha ha! Junior Brother Xiaotian, no need to be modest. We all know you managed to gain some harvest from the Heavensday Battlefield. The only reason you did not break through to the Human Immortal stage is because you are suppressing your aura, wanting to lay down a better foundation first.” Even Jian Zhiqiu, who did not like talking too much, spoke up with a chuckle.
After discussing for a moment, their topic of discussion then s.h.i.+fted towards the Heavensday Battlefield. Naturally, they also ended up talking about Chen Feng.
“Sigh! If it weren't for Elder Chen, I would probably be incapable of coming out from there alive,” Li s.h.i.+long said emotionally.
