The Planar Battlefield. There was no way to tell just how long it had existed. Likewise, there was also no way to tell just how many creatures were born from the b.l.o.o.d.y and malevolent environment created by the battlefield. The start of the Planar War caused the power of blood to sweep through the entire battlefield, turning it into the best time for the creatures born there to come out and kill.
Due to that, the cultivators partic.i.p.ating in the Planar War faced not only cultivators from other worlds but also some unpredictably ghastly creatures.
What was happening to the cultivators from Heavenly Sword Faction was one such example. They were all pure sword cultivators, with astonis.h.i.+ngly formidable combat powers. Even when facing those twice as strong as them, they would not cower. And yet, at that very moment, they had to ask for a.s.sistance.
The reason for that was the blood fiends and vengeful spirits. They brought about a heavy blow to the cultivators from Heavenly Sword Faction.
With a glance, Chen Feng could see that the number of blood fiends was not particularly high. However, their levels were. Over a hundred of them were at a level where they could fight Human Immortals. Most importantly, there were some vengeful spirits lurking around, initiating sneak attacks every now and again.
This force from Heavenly Sword Faction had managed to kill off a high number of the blood fiends. However, due to the casualties they suffered in the process, they were beginning to lose ground. Even though they could kill off hundreds of the blood fiends, they could not bring back the killed disciples.
“Attack!” After giving the order, Chen Feng took the lead in charging forward. This time, he did not utilize his Immortal artifacts. Instead, he brought out a magic treasure that he had not used in a long time, the Demon Sealing Sword.
The Demon Sealing Sword possessed the power of sealing, astral lightning, dimension and also the power to subdue demons. It was the counter to these b.l.o.o.d.y and malevolent creatures. The Demon Sealing Sword had been forged by a Human Immortal. However, its quality was quite good. Since following Chen Feng, it had been spending all this time undergoing a tempering and refining process, allowing it to advance to the Dao tier. Only, it had yet to fully form its grand dao, otherwise its grade would advance yet again. For such a high-quality magic treasure, levelling up was quite difficult.
In addition, the Blood Mustering Bead was also hovering above Chen Feng. It did not attack. Instead, it ceaselessly absorbed the killed blood fiends and vengeful spirits.
In the face of Chen Feng's attacks, none of the blood fiends could qualify to receive a second attack from him. All of them were killed with one blow before the Blood Mustering Bead absorbed them all. As for the vengeful spirits who wanted to launch a sneak attack against Chen Feng, they were devoured by a formidable power before they could even approach Chen Feng.
By the time Chen Feng killed off tens of the blood fiends, the cultivators under his command had joined the battle. Seeing that, the sword cultivators from Heavenly Sword Faction did not breathe a sigh of relief. Instead, their will to fight soared further.
In the end, all of the surrounding blood fiends and vengeful spirits were killed off. Following that, they swept the area and worked on healing their wounds.
Several of the leaders there came forward to thank Chen Feng.
On Chen Feng's side, he felt curious about how they would end up facing those blood fiends. Given the combat power of the sword cultivators, even if they were incapable of defeating the blood fiends, they should have been able to simply charge out.
“Sigh! We can only blame ourselves for being too careless. We fell for Heartless Heaven Sect and Warlord Pavilion's scheme. Due to that, the blood fiends managed to surround us.” The one who spoke up was a high-level Human Immortal. Chen Feng did not recognize him. However, this Human Immortal displayed a great deal of respect towards Chen Feng. By then, there was none within Heavenly Sword Faction who did not know that Chen Feng, an honorary elder of their sect, had ties with Patriarch Heavenly Sword, the founder of their sect. Chen Feng's cultivation base aside, just this ident.i.ty was enough to have the entire Heavenly Sword Faction treat him with respect.
Chen Feng nodded and did not inquire further. This was a very normal thing. The two sides were constantly fighting one another back in Eternal World. Given how good of an opportunity this way, there was no way those fellows would not plot against Heavenly Sword Faction.
Next up, Chen Feng's army and Heavenly Sword Faction's army stayed together for 10 days. After they had more or less recovered from their injuries, they split up again. Large-scale battles had yet to start. Thus, splitting up was for the better.
The highest cultivation level allowed for this Planar Battlefield was the Earthen Immortal stage. Ascendant Immortals were not allowed to interfere. However, utilizing the power of magic treasures or other methods would not be considered a violation of the rules.
Although they had yet to see any Earthen Immortals so far, Chen Feng knew that those Earthen Immortals were definitely fighting one another somewhere.
Due to the rules, Earthen Immortals had to enter individually. The limit for the number of Earthen Immortals in a single group was five. Should any group of Earthen Immortals violate that limit, the immortal dao laws there would detect that and forcibly split them up. Either that or punish them.
The rules were a necessity. Too many Earthen Immortals joining forces would create an imbalance in the battlefield. That kind of power could easily ma.s.sacre cultivators beneath the Earthen Immortal stage. Under these rules, however, it was possible for over 100 Human Immortals to besiege an Earthen Immortal. In such a scenario, it was possible for the Human Immortals to kill off that Earthen Immortal.
Due to the appearance of the teleportation arrays, the Planar Battlefield was thrown into chaos for a good three months. After three months, the situation gradually stabilized. However, the number of casualties had risen up to 20%. Rather, some sects had been completely eliminated from the Planar War.
Due to that, the smaller armies began diminis.h.i.+ng and they all began joining forces. The cultivators from the same worlds decided to temporarily put aside their past differences and work together in order to win.
Chen Feng's army had partic.i.p.ated in tens of battles, some small and some large. After that, they grouped up with those from Heavenly Sword Faction.
This place was not the only place where the Planar War was unfolding. Likewise, not all of the forces from Eternal World had come to this place. For example, of the Four Great Academies from the Central Plains, only the cultivators from Absolute Academy were here.
The number of disciples that Heavenly Sword Faction sent forward was five times that of East Dragon Island. As for the loose cultivators who chose to join them, their number was three times that of East Dragon Island. Of course, some other large sects had also chosen to join forces with Heavenly Sword Faction, obeying Heavenly Sword Faction's commands.
Within an Immortal-tier palace…
Many Human Immortals were seated there, forming a circle as they conducted a discussion. Chen Feng was there as well, the leader of several Human Immortals there.
This Immortal artifact's name was Moon Sword Palace. It was one of the treasures belonging to Heavenly Sword Faction. How much offensive power it could contribute to this Planar War aside, its defensive and deterring power was high enough to make it a formidable existence.
