Chapter 423: Departure (1/2)
When Chen Feng appeared before Jian Xiaotian and the others, they were all taken aback.
“Brother Chen, your aura?” asked a puzzled Jian Xiaotian.
At that very moment, Chen Feng resembled a volcano that could erupt at any moment. His fleshly body radiated firmness and sharpness while bolts of lightning kept flashing within the depths of his eyes. Just a glance from Chen Feng could cause their hearts to shudder. They quickly turned away to avoid Chen Feng’s gaze, their hearts shocked.
Sou!
Sage Enigma Flame appeared before Chen Feng and regarded him from head to toe. Then, he tutted in amazement. “Dear apprentice, your strength has risen so quickly! What kind of cultivation is this?”
“I found a spot with life and death energies here and was able to bolster my opened Life and Death acupoints. It is only natural that my cultivation base would soar after that,” Chen Feng said smilingly.
“Life and Death acupoints! You actually managed to open up those two insight acupoints? Kid, you are truly powerful.” Old Freak Ming, too, appeared before Chen Feng and he cast an astounded gaze at Chen Feng.
“I only managed to open them up thanks to luck.” Chen Feng nodded his head.
Seeing the look of shock still etched on Old Freak Ming’s face, Chen Feng secretly asked Tower, “Tower, are the two insight acupoints very difficult to open?”
“Of course! I have already told you this last time, but only some Human Immortals can open up these high-level insight acupoints,” Tower said amusedly.
“But it feels fairly easy for me,” Chen Feng said.
“Naturally, it is because you are cultivating the Longevity Scripture. If it were not for that, you would have been incapable of opening the Life and Death acupoints even after 100 years,” Tower said with a snicker.
Chen Feng secretly nodded. He stopped asking questions. He also understood why Old Freak Ming would reveal such a shocked expression.
Chen Feng looked around. This recent period of cultivation had allowed Jian Xiaotian and the others to make great strides in their cultivation.
The Pot Brothers had already overcome their 2nd Lightning Tribulations to become level 2 Sky Human stage cultivators. Additionally, the primary energies within the bodies of all five were vigorous while their divine senses were overflowing. It would not take long for them to reach level 3 of the Sky Human stage.
The auras emanating from Knight Yaoblade, Grotto Mistress Hypnosis and Sage Beastdrive were also fluctuating about constantly. Clearly, they were already close to another breakthrough.
Jian Xiaotian, Lin Shaokun and Ye Tian’s Essence, Energy and Soul were well integrated. Although they had yet to overcome their next Lightning Tribulation, their level of strength had risen considerably as well.
As for the Beast King and the others, they had long since made a full recovery. It was all because they could absorb the immortal energy within the Minor Dimension for their recuperation process.
“The rate of cultivation inside this place is too fast. I had originally assumed that it would take me at least eight to ten years before my next Lightning Tribulation, perhaps even tens of years before that. That amount of time has grown shorter by tens of times. If I can continue cultivating here, attaining the Human Immortal stage will not be impossible for me,” Knight Yaoblade said, a smile on his face.
“It is not that simple. Due to the governing laws inside this Minor Dimension, the rate of cultivation for the earlier levels is relatively fast. However, wanting to rise to the Human Immortal stage here is practically an impossibility.” One of the Yao Kings beside Mu Sheng spoke up. The Yao King’s original form was that of a bird. It had secretly helped Chen Feng and his friends when they were fighting against the invading cultivators in the past.
Boom!
As they were in the midst of their discussion, their surroundings suddenly shook and the spiritual energy around them was thrown into a state of chaos. Cracks began spreading out across the hard ground, shocking everyone present.
“What is going on here?” Everyone panicked.
“This Minor Dimension must be under attack. It is most likely that the cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace are the ones behind this,” Mu Sheng said.
“Don’t worry. This Minor Dimension is an Immortal artefact, albeit in another form. No matter how many Human Immortals they send, it will be useless. Additionally, we have already mastered the means to control this Minor Dimension. Even if they can find the entrance, they will still be incapable of entering,” one of the Yao Kings said.
“The only thing to fear is the emergence of Earthen Immortals. Additionally, each of the Ten Great Immortal Dao Sects has a few Immortal artefacts of their own to guard the sect. Even if they are just broken magic treasures, they would still possess great powers. The way I see it, we will have to quickly come up with a plan,” Sage Enigma Flame said.
Boom!
He had only just uttered those words when another collision occurred. The ground beneath them and the space around them were overturned. Chen Feng and the others, whose cultivation bases were weaker, were immediately sent tumbling. The blood energy within their bodies churned and the impulse to puke blood rose to the fore.
“No questions needed. The other party must have utilized Immortal artefacts.” The expression on Sage Enigma Flame’s face sank badly.
“We’ll join forces. Control the Minor Dimension to attack them,” a Yao King suggested.
“No. We have yet to fully master this Immortal artefact. We will surely be no match for the enemy. The way I see it, we should control this Immortal artefact and have it conceal itself first,” Mu Sheng said.
As they were discussing the matter, the interior of the Minor Dimension grew more chaotic. The trees were completely uprooted, the rivers began flowing in the reverse order and even the rolling mountains began crashing down.
Chen Feng and the others had to mobilize all their powers to resist the ceaseless waves of power assailing them from their surroundings.
“All right! Everyone, join forces to conceal this Minor Dimension first!” They finally came to an agreement.
Thus, Sage Enigma Flame and his group brought out four black tokens. After injecting magic power into them, the four tokens instantly shone with a dazzling light. Rays of light shone out from the surface of the tokens to slip into space, joining up with the Minor Dimension.
Rumble! Rumble!
The entire Minor Dimension shook. Next, it broke space to conceal itself within the void.
