Everlasting. Everlasting Chapter 1266 Arriving At The Dark Plane

The two of them had appeared amidst an army of Slaughterers. Looking at the Slaughterers rus.h.i.+ng forward to surround and attack then, they shook their heads helplessly, a wry smile on their faces. 

“Slaughterers again.”

Magiris brandished the Illusory Demon Edge while Chen Feng brought out the Longevity Sword. As the other party did not have any Gold Immortals, they became like vegetables waiting to be chopped up by Chen Feng and Magiris. 

“Did you find Senior Dark Night's aura?”  

“Got it. Let's go!”

Upon sensing the Dark Kirin's aura, Chen Feng grew delighted. But it then turned to anxiousness. The Dark Kirin's aura was somewhat unstable, sometimes strong and sometimes weak. Additionally, there were also some hints of chaos there. That said, the Dark Kirin was connected to the Dark Plane, which served as his backer. Due to that, his overall strength was still sufficiently strong. But allowing this situation to continue would affect the Dark Plane's essence power. And if the Dark Plane's essence power were to be damaged, it would affect the Dark Kirin.  

The Dark Kirin was the ruler of the Dark Plane, after all. Chen Feng was aware of that. Should the Dark Plane fall, the Dark Kirin would end up suffering from more than just grievous injuries. 

Chen Feng and Magiris blazed open a path through the Slaughterers and saw several Gold Immortal stage Slaughterers besieging the Dark Kirin. 

Of course, the Dark Kirin also had Gold Immortals on his side. Only, despite constantly absorbing essence power from the Dark Plane, the Dark Kirin was still incapable of improving his unfavourable situation. 

“Right on time. Find a way to deal with that s.p.a.ce-time Slaughterer.”

The Dark Kirin had sensed Chen Feng and Magiris the moment they entered the Dark Plane. As they were in the midst of charging towards the Dark Kirin, he sent them a secret vocal transmission. 

“A s.p.a.ce-time Slaughterer again? He sure doesn't have any compunctions about this.” Chen Feng shook his head and his gaze swept around to quickly lock on to a certain spot. 

“This place has the highest concentration of Slaughterers. It must be here. Still, I am very surprised that the Dark Plane can last this long,” Chen Feng said. He could sense that the Slaughterers had already invaded the Dark Plane. However, the Dark Plane remained orderly and whole and its essence power was undamaged.  

“You cannot compare the Dark Plane with your average life-bearing great world. This is an existence second only to the Immortal Plane,” Magiris, who was beside Chen Feng, said. 

“Attack!” Chen Feng said, his body releasing a pulse. Next, a humanoid phantom appeared from Chen Feng's back again. This time, the phantom was slightly clearer compared to before and it was possible to faintly see that it looked like Chen Feng.

Magiris nodded, streams of light flying out from his pair of eyes to form a black vortex. Almost simultaneously, Chen Feng and Magiris stepped into the vortex.

Chen Feng then re-appeared on the s.p.a.ce-time Slaughterer's back. The sword in his hand swung and wave after wave of sword energy surged forward to wipe out the thousand plus Slaughterers that were emerging from the teleportation array there. After that, the phantom pulled the Soul Demise Bow and a drop of Gold Immortal blood essence transformed into an arrow, which was fired forward. Like a speeding sun, it shot into the s.p.a.ce-time Slaughterer's body. 

Every time Chen Feng had to utilize Gold Immortal blood essence, he would feel his heart aching. It had to be said, the higher one's level, the less blood essence one would possess. Cultivators at the Gold Immortal stage would only have a few drops of blood essence. Some Gold Immortals would go so far as to purify their blood essence until there was only one drop within them.  

Should the opponent choose to burn their blood essence during a fight, the amount that Chen Feng could obtain would decrease further. 

Thankfully, this arrow attack was very strong. Upon entering the s.p.a.ce-time Slaughterer's body, the arrow immediately blew up, causing cracks to appear across the body of the s.p.a.ce-time Slaughterer. Seeing that alleviated Chen Feng's feelings of distress somewhat. 

“Blackwater Throttling Technique!”

Magiris attacked as well, black energy spilling out from his body to quickly form two ma.s.sive hands. Grabbing the s.p.a.ce-time Slaughterer, they then pulled while the Illusory Demon Edge slashed down upon it. 

And so, the s.p.a.ce-time Slaughterer was ripped apart. 

Chen Feng rapidly flashed forward. When he re-appeared, there was a crystal core in his hand. But he did not stop there. Opening his mouth, he unleashed a breath of primary flames to utterly burn away the soul imprint on it. 

The speed at which they were able to kill off a s.p.a.ce-time Slaughterer left Chen Feng and Magiris somewhat shocked. 

“Did we become stronger?” Magiris said with a smile. 

“It feels like the enemy's strength is weaker.” Chen Feng shook his head. 

“That's very normal. Even amongst us Gold Immortals, there are strong Gold Immortals and weak Gold Immortals. The same must be true for the Slaughterers.”

“Tsk, tsk. It just so happens another Gold Immortal stage Slaughterer is coming. It's a Blade Monarch,” Chen Feng said, his eyes lighting up. Next, he charged forward, the Longevity Wings on his back quickly melting to form countless threads that pierced their way into the void. By the time they reappeared, they had already formed a cage that imprisoned the Blade Monarch. 

“Cut!”

A highly overbearing and ferocious astral blade cut open the cage and slashed towards Chen Feng, who stretched out both his hands, sending two huge hands forward to take on the attack. 

The two hands overlapped before unleas.h.i.+ng a dimensional power to entrap the astral blade. Following that, Chen Feng's figure flashed forward to re-appear before the Blade Monarch. His hands kept forming hand seals and the surrounding s.p.a.ce stacked atop one another to restrain the Blade Monarch at its most central position.

Weng!

Another astral blade slashed out to break two layers of s.p.a.ce, but Chen Feng set up three more spatial barriers. 

The spatial barriers swiftly shrank, exerting pressure upon the Blade Monarch, who had to figure a way to break free, otherwise he would be left incapable of moving. 

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Fatigue was seeming a foreign concept to the Blade Monarch, who kept firing out astral blades. Finally, Chen Feng's actions slowed down and the final spatial barrier was broken. Brandis.h.i.+ng his blade, the Blade Monarch then rushed towards Chen Feng.

The blade attack from the Blade Monarch contained the power of rage and oppression that he had been acc.u.mulating. Even so, Chen Feng did not back away. Wielding his sword, he moved forward to take the attack head on. At the same time, light flashed from his suit of armour. That was the power of the Divine artifact, which further empowered Chen Feng.

Boom!

The two attacks collided and the two of them were blasted backwards at the same time. Next, Magiris suddenly appeared behind the Blade Monarch and the Illusory Demon Edge in his hand fired out a devastating blade of light. 

Chi!

A large hole appeared on the Blade Monarch's body. Magiris quickly followed it up with a beam of light from his eyes, which transformed into threads to tie up the Blade Monarch. 

“Cut!”

Chen Feng arrived, the Longevity Sword streaking forward to decapitate the Blade Monarch.

“His crystal core is mine!” Magiris was quick to take action, s.n.a.t.c.hing away the crystal core within the Blade Monarch's body.

Chen Feng laughed. “I have no intentions of s.n.a.t.c.hing it from you.”

“Hmm!” Magiris grunted, appearing somewhat embarra.s.sed.

“Our opponents are indeed weaker. I speculate that these Slaughterers did not come from the same place,” Chen Feng said smilingly. 

“The aura that these Slaughterers emanate is similar to the ones we encountered in the past. They must be from the same place.” Magiris disagreed.

“Ha ha ha! We don't even know where these Slaughterers came from. Thinking more about it is useless.” Chen Feng then waved it off. 

“You're the one who started it.”

“Alright, alright. Let's not argue about this.” Chen Feng then brought out the Wicked Sceptre and wicked energy swept into their surroundings. Some of the weaker Slaughterers were immediately affected by the wicked energy, resulting in their eventual deaths. 

At the same time, the Blood Mustering Bead flew out from his body and a halo of b.l.o.o.d.y light swept outwards, sending the Slaughterers tumbling in its wake. 

“Collect!”

Chen Feng shouted and the b.l.o.o.d.y light returned, bringing with it large amounts of blood essence into the Blood Mustering Bead. 

“These two magic treasures of yours are really good.”

Seeing Chen Feng utilize such killer moves, Magiris stopped taking action. Instead, he cast a look of interest at Chen Feng. 

“What? Are you jealous?” Chen Feng said with a smile. 

The Wicked Sceptre was a mid-grade Divine artifact to begin with. Later, the Hex Sceptre was merged with it, causing it to become even stronger and more wicked. At that very moment, Chen Feng was giving it his all to mobilize the Wicked Sceptre. Thus, the wicked power that it released affected over 100,000 Slaughterers. Over 10,000 of them had died to it. More, the affected area was still rising. 

Every once in a while, the Blood Mustering Bead would emanate a wave of b.l.o.o.d.y light to devour the surrounding blood essence. In Chen Feng's opinion, these two magic treasures had the best possible chances of advancing to the high-grade Divine tier. That was especially so for the Blood Mustering Bead. It was simply too overbearing. If it weren't for Chen Feng, who feared that letting it advance too fast would be a bad thing, it would have devoured even more Gold Immortal blood essence. 

“Very jealous,” Magiris said, the Illusory Demon Edge in his hand flying out. Blades of light flashed and the Slaughterers that were eroded by the wicked power were killed. 

With Magiris' partic.i.p.ation, the rate at which the Wicked Sceptre eroded the Slaughterers increased further. 

“Wicked law!”

Chen Feng shouted and a grey-coloured law emerged from his body. Like a wyrm, it swirled around Chen Feng non-stop. Then, a booming sound rang out and the aura of the Wicked Sceptre in Chen Feng's hand skyrocketed. The wicked power that it was emanating grew stronger by 10%.

“A Wicked law! Incredible! Why is this law of yours so powerful?” Magiris exclaimed. 

“The Wicked Sceptre is a mid-grade Divine artifact. What's so shocking about it?” Chen Feng scoffed.

100,000.

200,000.

300,000.

400,000.

The number of casualties on the Slaughterers' side kept climbing to finally break the one million mark. 

To the surprise of Chen Feng and Magiris, though, even though the two of them were ma.s.sacring the Slaughterers, no more Gold Immortals appeared from the other party.

Without any Gold Immortals to obstruct them, Chen Feng and Magiris became like killing machines that knew not the concept of fatigue. However, after spending a long time ma.s.sacring the Slaughterers, they actually felt mentally drained. 

Given their level of strength, one attack could destroy even a life-bearing planet. However, these Slaughterers mostly consisted of Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals. One full-powered attack from them was enough to wipe out tens of thousands of enemies.

Chen Feng was in a relatively better state. Mobilizing both the Wicked Sceptre and the Blood Mustering Bead for this, he could feel the Blood Mustering Bead growing stronger and stronger. Thus, he felt only joy from this. In comparison, Magiris felt frustrated and bored. Due to the wicked power invading their bodies, the Slaughterers were left with little power to resist Magiris' attacks.

Finally, when they felt the pressure on them lightening, Chen Feng collected the two Divine artifacts. Looking around, he saw only empty lands. The Slaughterers were rapidly running away.

“The Slaughterers are running away.” Magiris released a lengthy sigh. There was not much joy in his eyes. 

“The Slaughterers we encountered this time are indeed weaker.”
