Observing how quickly his opponent recollected himself and how he was already preparing to attack without saying a word, Chen Feng knew that this opponent was not to be underestimated. Deserving of the title War Immortal. That said, Chen Feng grew even more excited. A War Immortal at the Ascendant Immortal stage. This was exactly what Chen Feng needed.

“Please advise me.” Wielding the battle lance, the War Immortal saluted Chen Feng once. Then, without waiting for Chen Feng to reply, his figure flashed to perform a simple stab and the battle lance in his hand shot towards Chen Feng.

It appeared simplistic. But Chen Feng’s eyes saw something else. That one stab from the formidable battle lance seemingly caused the space before Chen Feng to transform. Everything around him disappeared, even the body of the War Immortal, leaving behind only the tip of the lance.

For something like this to happen meant that his opponent’s essence, energy and soul power was in no way inferior to Chen Feng’s. Rather, they could be greater.

Chen Feng punched again, his attack smashing the tip of the lance to bring about a thunderous sound. Rippling shockwaves spread out across space and Chen Feng had to take a step backwards. Next, however, lance silhouettes filled the space before him.

Chen Feng was also a veteran of hundreds of battles with a great deal of combat experience. His palm moved to unleash a skyful of fingers. Every one of the fingers contained a power of sharpness and every jab forward created whistling sounds and lines streaked across the sky. When the images of the fingers disappeared, so too did all the lance silhouettes, shattered by the fingers.

“Longevity Finger!”

The War Immortal’s figure dashed forward, his battle lance aimed at Chen Feng. The will to fight swelled out from his body and his hair billowed about. His eyes were like the stars and his body emanated an unmatchable aura of savagery.

“You know quite a bit,” Chen Feng said, flicking both his hands as his ten fingers jabbed forward to instantly send tens of meteors against the War Immortal from various angles.

Without waiting for the results of his move, Chen Feng rapidly moved forward to thrust the Heaven Piercing Lance towards the War Immortal’s forehead.

Chen Feng was unwilling to bring out a top-grade Immortal artifact to fight this opponent. Rather, even using the Heaven Piercing Lance, now a mid-grade Immortal artifact, felt like a bullying act for Chen Feng.

Like a river, a stream of light flowed by and all of Chen Feng’s previous attacks were unravelled. Next, two battle lances collided. Two formidable forces kept smashing against one another. After that, the two of them began exchanging blows. 

“To think that a War Immortal would appear. This Heavenly Tribulation is worth watching.” Huo Yunlong hovered somewhere nearby, watching the Heavenly Tribulation with interest.

For Huo Yunlong, the fact that a War Immortal would appear was already a highly shocking issue. However, he was not feeling worried for Chen Feng. It was very simple. The level of this War Immortal was simply too low. No matter how much more combat experience this War Immortal may possess, no matter how monstrous he may be, he would not be able to turn the situation around. Why? Because Chen Feng was still suppressing his own strength.

That said, the fact that this War Immortal was able to display such a level of strength with his cultivation base at the starter-level Ascendant Immortal stage secretly shocked Huo Yunlong. At the very least, if Huo Yunlong had to suppress his own strength to the starter-level Ascendant Immortal stage, he believed that he would certainly be no match for this War Immortal. Rather, the War Immortal might be able to instantly kill him off.

Speaking of which, this is my first time seeing a War Immortal. Are they all so strong? Still, it looks to me like Chen Feng is even more of a monster compared to them.

Brandishing his battle lance, the War Immortal radiated a will to fight that kept growing stronger and stronger and he unleashed wide swings that contained the power of laws, creating a myriad of imagery as a result. As time went by, Chen Feng felt himself hard-pressed to deal with the attacks.

It is said that every one of the War Immortals from the Immortal Plane is honed through wars. Their concentrated killing intent aside, their combat techniques flow out smoothly. This War Immortal should be from Savage World. His body techniques are formidable while his divine sense have been greatly improved through the bloody baptism of war. He is practically without any weak points. No, it would not be an exaggeration to say that every one of the War Immortals from the Immortal Plane has no weak points

.

Normally, whenever a War Immortal has to face someone on the same level as them, the War Immortal would emerge victorious. The only exception would be for one who is suppressing his own cultivation level, utilizing brute force to power through

.

An opponent who has no weak points. This is the most difficult opponent to handle

. Wielding the Heaven Piercing Lance, Chen Feng’s figure rapidly flashed forward. In just an instant, there were two Chen Fengs. Then, three, four, five… it did not take long before Chen Feng’s figures filled the surrounding space.

This was due to the Longevity Steps. After reaching a certain level of speed, this technique could leave after-images behind. Naturally, Chen Feng’s true body was hiding amidst them.

Upon displaying the Longevity Steps, Chen Feng’s speed immediately rose to a monstrous level, at least 10 times faster than before.

However, this was still not his best speed.

“The Longevity Steps!”

The War Immortal’s gaze became focused and light flashed out from his blinking eyes. Next, Chen Feng’s body abruptly came to a halt and the after-images stacked up to finally leave only Chen Feng’s true body, which was pulled towards the War Immortal. And so, the two of them clashed. Chen Feng’s figure staggered as he fully unravelled the offensive power invading his body. Likewise, the War Immortal’s body shook violently as he unravelled the power behind Chen Feng’s attack.

“To think that I would encounter a cultivator from the Longevity Clan under such circumstances. There are some talents in the Celestial Planes, after all,” the War Immortal said.

“The Celestial Planes are above the Immortal Plane. And yet, a minor Immortal Plane dares to talk about our Celestial Longevity Plane in such a manner?” Chen Feng scoffed. When he saw the War Immortal, Chen Feng knew that the Immortal Plane had intervened in his Heavenly Tribulation again, causing feelings of displeasure to rise up from within. But there was nothing he could do about it. If he had undergone his tribulation in the Celestial Longevity Plane’s territory, the Immortal Plane would have been incapable of interfering with it, no matter how powerful they may be. At present, however, the fact that they were not sending an expert over to kill him was already proof that the deterring might of the Celestial Planes was still in effect. 

“Many cultivators from the various Celestial Planes had lost to me before. A portion of them is from your Celestial Longevity Plane as well. Some were of a higher level than me, but I had still killed them nonetheless. At the end of the day, your exalted Celestial Planes are only so-so. It is just a matter of time before our Immortal Plane annex you all.” When he said that, the War Immortal who had been maintaining a calm demeanour all this time suddenly became excited. In response, the will to fight emanating from him grew several notches stronger.

“If so, does that mean you dare fight me if we’re at the same level? Let me guess, you don’t! If we’re at the same level, I can kill you off instantly. Your title of War Immortal is only for the Immortal Plane. After leaving the Immortal Plane, you are nothing more than a joke,” Chen Feng retorted as he fully retracted the power that he was radiating, leaving only the might of his fleshly body. Seeing that, however, the War Immortal felt an even greater level of danger.

The War Immortal had not given Chen Feng any reply. Having cultivated to this level, external factors were no longer capable of affecting him. Next, he swung the battle lance in his hand and a stream of energy descended from faraway. With a booming sound, the War Immortal’s aura began rising to finally stabilize itself at the mid-level Ascendant Immortal stage.

Without so much as a word, the War Immortal then arrived before Chen Feng and a swing from his battle lance sent Chen Feng flying.

“What is this? Did I touch a sore spot? It’s useless! Even if your cultivation level goes up by another level, it is still useless. Given my current fleshly body’s might, I can already block the attack from an Immortal artifact.” Chen Feng stabilized his position, unscathed from the attack. Then, with a step, the Heaven Piercing Lance flew out from his hand, shooting forward.

The very next instant, the Longevity Wings abruptly unfurled from Chen Feng’s back. With this, Chen Feng’s speed soared beyond anything his opponent could sense as his figure disappeared from the War Immortal’s field of vision.

Not even utilizing eye techniques was of any help to the War Immortal.

The War Immortal’s face sank and the battle lance in his hand swiftly shot forward, placed defensively before him as a formidable force landed upon his body.

He’s become so much stronger!

 The thought flashed across the War Immortal’s mind as his body was sent hurtling backwards.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Four of Chen Feng’s insight acupoints burst with power in quick succession, causing Chen Feng’s combat power to abruptly become several times stronger. With the addition of the Longevity Wings that could traverse space-time, Chen Feng believed that it was time to finish this fight.

However, the War Immortal’s aura transformed once again. An aura of great savagery emerged from his every move to spread outwards and he managed to stop several of Chen Feng’s attacks.

“Savage laws!” Chen Feng was shocked. Unexpectedly, this opponent had also extracted and comprehended the essence power of Savage World. More, he was able to reach such a level of attainment with it.

“It’s almost time. Let’s end this here,” Chen Feng said, and two more insight acupoints within him burst with a tsunami-like power. At the same time, Chen Feng also began utilizing the Magic Eyes of Darkness. With the eye technique, he was able to determine the War Immortal’s weak spots. Then, the Longevity Wings flapped and Chen Feng’s figure flashed forward, the lance in his hand stabbing the War Immortal’s body before a mighty power erupted from within.

“I lost just like this?” The War Immortal was in disbelief. It was not as though he had never lost before, but this was the first time he had lost to someone with a lower cultivation level.

“It’s quite the bullying act,” Chen Feng mumbled after the War Immortal dissipated away. Before this, he was already fighting against True Immortals. To suddenly fight against an Ascendant Immortal here, Chen Feng found his mind undergoing a great change.

Heavenly dao laws converged together into a stream before descending upon Chen Feng’s body. By then, Chen Feng no longer thought highly of the Heavenly dao laws. And yet, without overcoming his tribulation, he would not be able to continue with his path of cultivation. It was something of a recognition from the Heavenly dao.

I’ve finally cultivated up to the Ascendant Immortal stage. I wonder, what level has my childhood friends reached now? True Immortal? Heavenly Immortal? I have already wasted a million years. If I want to catch up to them, this rate of cultivation is still not enough.

 Chen Feng sighed.

“Ha ha ha! I finally cultivated up to the high-level Ascendant Immortal stage!”

“Unexpectedly, I would still be able to advance again. Not to mention, this is not the Immortal Plane.”

“The cultivation conditions of this place have surpassed the Immortal Plane’s cultivation conditions.”

One by one, Patriarch Heavenly Sword and the others broke through to the next level and their cultivation bases soared. They would be able to protect themselves even after entering the Immortal Plane.

Boom!

Suddenly, a fiery light flared out before charging skywards. Like the eruption of a gigantic volcano, it was so dazzling that even the starry sky turned fiery-red in colour. With this, the hole that the Bedazzling Star Map created was enlarged, becoming several times bigger.

“This fellow (Huo Yunlong) couldn’t hold on anymore.” Chen Feng shook his head, his figure flashing to re-appear outside the Bedazzling Star Map.

Hovering within the starry space, Chen Feng felt a world-shaking change in every move he made. With a gentle grasping motion, energy streams surged forward to converge upon his palm, alarming both the Dark Kirin and Premier Golden Earth.

An Ascendant Immortal! He really was just an Earthen Immortal before this. This can no longer be called a genius, but a monster!

 Premier Golden Earth regarded Chen Feng. Suddenly, a minor feeling of fear grew from within his heart. This was not due to the oppressive effect of Chen Feng’s strength. Rather, it was due to the shock of seeing something highly beyond the norm.

“An Ascendant Immortal, not bad. If I meet that War Immortal again, I can definitely kill him off instantly.” Chen Feng was able to instantly and clearly grasp his state of cultivation.
