Chapter 896 Ascendant Immortals from the Lightning Plane (1/2)

“Who is it? Just come out. You are an Ascendant Immortal, after all. Sneakily attacking like this, aren’t you ashamed of yourself?” Chen Feng sneered.

When the cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace saw Chen Feng flee earlier, they had grown shocked and apprehensive. Seeing him re-appear, however, they stopped attacking. They knew then that someone else had taken action.

“If I didn’t do anything, you would have been able to escape.” A thick voice rang out and a middle-aged cultivator appeared before Chen Feng.

The two of them regarded one another and a look of surprise appeared on their faces.

“Longevity Tower! You are a member of the Longevity Clan!”

“Ha ha ha! So, you are a cultivator from the Lightning Plane. Since you’ve found out my identity, you will have to die now.”

The surrounding cultivators from Nine Firmaments Palace noticed something strange. A trace of fear could be seen within the eyes of the Ascendant Immortal on their side.

However, the Ascendant Immortal was quick to bring his emotions in check.

“Is the Longevity Clan also interested in this little life-bearing world?”

“How should I address you?” Chen Feng avoided the question.

“Heavenly Premier Primebolt.”

“You possess quite the set of skills. To think that you would be able to enter this world. No matter how you cut it, this is one of the earliest life-bearing places in the universe. And yet, you dare to recklessly come all the way here? Are you not afraid that you might die here?” Chen Feng said smilingly.

“Though, which side do you represent? The Lightning Plane? Or the Immortal Plane? Or yourself?”

“Since our Lightning Plane has merged with the Immortal Plane, there will no longer be any Lightning Plane, only the Immortal Plane. But what of you? A mere Human Immortal who possesses the Longevity Tower. Are you not aware of the danger you are in?” Heavenly Premier Primebolt suddenly attacked.

Suddenly, a cyan-coloured beam of sword light made its way into the space that the Ascendant Immortal had created. This sword beam was transparent and it shone with a gem-like lustre. Striking the lightning palm, it created a tearing sound and the palm was cleaved into two.

Bi Qing, clad in cyan-coloured clothes and with a sword slung across his back, appeared before Chen Feng.

“Senior Bi Qing!” Chen Feng smiled. He did not appear surprised. This was within his expectations.

“Looks like the hand of the Immortal Plane is getting a little long,” Bi Qing said coolly.

“It is possible that he is acting alone.”

“Unexpectedly, after leaving the Northern Plains for just a short time, such a big change would happen. Looks like Nine Firmaments Palace really wants to unify the entire Northern Plains.”

“More, they want to unify the entire Eternal World.”

“With the support of the Immortal Plane, it is not an impossibility.”

“It feels strange, though. Although Eternal World is an ancient world, it is still just a life-bearing cultivation world in the end. For the Immortal Plane to be setting its sights on it, looks like there is something good here.”

“Even Immortal artefacts would appear here from time to time. Those things are fiercely fought for even in the Immortal Plane.”

Chen Feng and Bi Qing discussed, seemingly ignoring Heavenly Premier Primebolt’s existence.

“Sir, how should I address you and where are you from?” Heavenly Premier Primebolt stared at Bi Qing, light flashing within his eyes. Lightning powers flashed across his body and his hand grasped to bring out a great lightning halberd.

The might of an Immortal artefact emanated from it.

“Bi Qing, from the Celestial Clearblue Plane,” Bi Qing answered coolly.

“Celestial Clearblue Plane.” The expression on Heavenly Premier Primebolt’s face flickered non-stop and he seemingly pondered something.

“How unexpected, the name of our Celestial Clearblue Plane is no longer capable of subduing these little fellows anymore.” Bi Qing sighed.

“It’s the same for our Celestial Longevity Plane.” Chen Feng shook his head.

“Have our Celestial Planes been staying silent for too long?”

“That is one reason. Another reason, however, is the previous war. Every one of our Celestial Planes exhausted too much of our strength in the war while the Immortal Plane had been growing at a rapid pace recently. Heh! Looks like the Immortal Plane is getting somewhat ambitious.”

“In that case, I should kill off this junior first!” After saying that, Bi Qing beckoned and the sword slung across his back transformed into a stream of light before flying into his grasp.

Bi Qing had only just reached the Ascendant Immortal stage himself. He was practically on the same cultivation level as Heavenly Premier Primebolt. However, that was all. Bi Qing’s action of simply swinging his sword a few times caused a feeling to rise up from Heavenly Premier Primebolt’s heart. He felt as though he could not defeat this opponent.

Bi Qing was a Heavenly Immortal in his previous life, after all. Although he had yet to fully recover his full strength, the mental pressure that he could exert on others was strong enough to break the minds of cultivators on the same level as him.

“You want to kill me? You don’t have what it takes! Come out!” Heavenly Premier Primebolt suddenly laughed.

Sou! Sou! Sou!

Following Heavenly Premier Primebolt’s shout, three more cultivators broke through space to appear before them all.
