nChapter 898: Rebellion (2)
nEditor: Dragon Boat Translation
nThe Sixth Demonic Body stabilized in midair and, through the spatial portal, cast a cold, unfeeling gaze at its original self.
nThe original self had not made another move after being thrown, thus the duel effect had not been triggered.
nThere was a slight fluctuation in the fundamental energies between the Sixth Demonic Body and the original self, but it had not forcibly flattened out.
nThe Sixth Demonic Body took a deep breath and turned to look behind.
nThe original self blocked the end of the spatial portal, making it impossible for the Sixth Demonic Body to return.
nAs the Sixth Demonic Body appeared on this side, a blood-red, fleshy eyeball emerged.
nThe power of the distorted illusion applied to the Sixth Demonic Body, but it had no effect whatsoever.
nAlthough the fleshy eyeball was powerful, relying solely on illusionary power, it could no longer deceive the current Demonic Body.
nA faint light flickered in the Sixth Demonic Body’s forehead as it gazed into the distance.
nCompared to the pervasive deathly aura from before, the heaven and earth’s vital energy here had significantly improved. In its view, the Sixth Demonic Body saw several more fleshy eyeballs.
nHowever, compared to the hundreds of fleshy eyeballs from before, there were now only seven in total, and all were at the early stage of the fifth rank.
nThe Sixth Demonic Body scanned the surroundings and focused on the southeast corner.
nWhile other areas were covered by countless spatial storms, the southeast corner had a massive gap, as if someone had removed a corner of a formation.
n“Has anyone else been here recently?”
nThe Sixth Demonic Body noticed that the place where the previous avatar had taken the Void Wood now had only a vast, barren land where there had previously been ruins.
nOnly the decayed corpses of worms lay sprawling there.
n“Were the previous fleshy eyeballs killed by someone, or did they leave voluntarily?”
nWith so little information, the Sixth Demonic Body couldn’t determine exactly what had happened here.
nSeeing that the fleshy eyeballs could not deceive the Sixth Demonic Body, countless threads of blood surged towards it.
nThe Sixth Demonic Body shouted lowly, and the Dust Giant Body appeared behind it. The next moment, the gigantic Dust Law Sword slashed at the fleshy eyeball.
n“Boom!”
nThe mountain trembled slightly before returning to calm.
nIf this had been the Boundless Sea, the space would have shattered with that sword strike.
nBut here, the space didn’t even ripple, and the Leaving Dust Sword didn’t strike the fleshy eyeball but passed straight through, hitting the rocks on the ground.
nIt was as if these fleshy eyeballs were mere illusions without any substance.
n“Zhiz!”
nThe blood threads touched the Dust Giant Body, emitting a corrosive sound. The Sixth Demonic Body’s vital energy and soul were rapidly consumed.
nIn the blink of an eye, thirty percent of the Sixth Demonic Body’s vital energy and soul had vanished.
n“Return!”
nAs the Sixth Demonic Body was about to move, the original self’s voice echoed in its mind.
nAlthough moving here had become extremely difficult and the distance significantly reduced, traveling a dozen miles was still feasible.
nOtherwise, enduring the attacks of the fleshy eyeballs would quickly deplete its vital energy and soul.
nThe Sixth Demonic Body glanced at the fleshy eyeball, then turned and dashed back to the spatial portal. The next moment, the portal vanished, leaving no trace behind.
nAt the Corpse Cliff Mountain, the Sixth Demonic Body emerged from the spatial portal, looking at the original self with its fists slowly clenching.
nChen Fei did not look at the Sixth Demonic Body but focused on the Dragon Elephant Stone Stele in front of him.
nOn the other side of the spatial portal, there must have been a sect. Those fifthrank fleshy eyeballs could not come through the stone tablet’s spatial portal, but practitioners of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant could use this portal even at the fifth rank.
nIt was clear that this had been deliberately set up.
nThe sect on that mountain peak had likely not been destroyed by the fleshy eyeballs. It was also possible that truly powerful anomalies had already left, leaving only the lesser ones behind.
nMoreover, even the lesser anomalies now numbered only seven.
nThe Heart of Sincerity indicated that this was not a dead end. With Chen Fei’s current strength, there was a slim chance of escaping.
nOf course, it was only a slim chance.
nSeven fifth-rank early-stage fleshy eyeballs were still difficult for Chen Fei to handle.
n“Go!”
nChen Fei restored the Dragon Elephant Stone Stele to its original state, activated the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, easily lifted the entire tablet, and placed it into the Concealment Bell. He erased all traces of its presence, then broke through space and left the Corpse Cliff Mountain.
nFifteen minutes after Chen Fei’s departure, several figures appeared at Corpse Cliff Mountain, frowning as they observed the calm space around them.
nHalf a day later, Chen Fei arrived at the location of the former Thousand Feathers Alliance altar.
nThe altar had long been destroyed. Chen Fei came not for the altar but to leave the Boundless Sea and return to the previous Immortal Cloud City.
nThe threat warned by the Heart of Sincerity was intensifying. Chen Fei needed to find a place to cultivate and give himself time to break through to the Sun Moon Realm.
nThere was no place more suitable than the previous Immortal Cloud City territory.
nThe spatial portal connecting the Thousand Feathers Alliance to Immortal Cloud City had also disappeared with the destruction of the altar.
nHowever, still within the Boundless Sea plane, Chen Fei quickly located his position and directly broke through space to arrive in Immortal Cloud City’s territory.
nThe spiritual energy in the heaven and earth had become sluggish. Chen Fei floated in the air, observing his surroundings.
nThis previously sealed area did not hold any great secrets.
nIt was merely a result of the Boundless Sea plane shrinking, with problems appearing first in the peripheral regions, leading to spatial barriers here.
nHowever, these barriers were quite fragile. A practitioner at the Sun Moon Realm could easily break through them. With Chen Fei’s current power, he could directly pierce through the space and return.
nChen Fei moved slightly and arrived above Immortal Cloud City.
nWithin the Profound Heavenly Ring, the figures of Qu Qingsheng and others appeared one by one, looking at Immortal Cloud City below and the distant former sects with nostalgic eyes.
nDecades had passed, and the forces here had changed several times. The names of sects like the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect and the Primordial Sword Sect were now almost forgotten, belonging to a bygone era.
nIn the Sacred City of Middle Continent.
n“Boom!”
nA massive roar erupted in the central hall. The Sacred Master of the Stellar Sacred Land, Zhan Xuming, was sent flying, blood trickling from his mouth.
n“Surrender and come with me to the Return to Nothing Realm’s Sky Sea City to atone for your crimes. I can guarantee your safety!”
nNie Shengyun looked down from above, commanding in a low voice. “But if you stubbornly resist and attempt to defy orders, I will kill you on the spot, and no one will dare to say anything!”
n“You accuse my Stellar Sect’s ancestors of betraying humanity. Even if it’s true, what fault do we, the disciples in the Boundless Sea, have?” Zhan Xuming shouted, turning to look at the Sun Moon Realm experts from other sacred lands.
n“Whether there is fault or not is not up to you to decide. Sky Sea City will make the final judgment!” Nie Shengyun shook his head.
nThe Stellar Sect’s ancestors’ betrayal of Sky Sea City had not been intended to capture the Stellar Sect disciples in the Boundless Sea. However, that sect’s ancestor had taken a supreme treasure from Sky Sea City.
nOrdinary treasures might be forgone, but the power of that supreme treasure was extraordinary, and many were reluctant to abandon it.
nWith no way to capture the individual directly and having come to the Boundless Sea by chance, they could only use the Stellar Sect’s disciples as anchors and employ secret methods to lock onto them.
nThe Boundless Sea was in a period of decline, but refining treasures was still possible. Sky Sea City wanted that treasure.
nThose stuck at the mid-level of the fifth rank in the Boundless Sea might very well advance to the late stage of the fifth rank or even reach the peak of the fifth rank in the future. Sky Sea City wanted those combat abilities as well.
nThree birds with one stone—why not?
nAs for having the Stellar Sect’s people actively cooperate in capturing their own ancestor, many would be unwilling.
nIn that case, it would be simpler to directly detain them and bring them back to Sky Sea City!
