It had only been a few years since they left Eternal World, but there was already an additional 100 plus Ascendant Immortals in the East Dragon Island Alliance. Additionally, more cultivators would advance to the Ascendant Immortal stage with every passing moment. During that short moment when Chen Feng created a link with the Heavenly dao of the universe to trigger their Heavenly Tribulations, another ten or so Earthen Immortals successfully overcame their tribulations to reach the Ascendant Immortal stage.

These cultivators had been cultivating inside a pseudo-Divine artifact where they received vast amounts of immortal energy. Additionally, there was also the longevity energy that Chen Feng provided. Thus, many cultivators were able to break through to the next level. Even so, Chen Feng was of the opinion that this rate of cultivation was still too slow.

To think that there would be a Yin Yang Treasure Zone here. If I can enter it and devour the power of yin and yang in there, my cultivation would be able to greatly benefit from it. Chen Feng was also feeling very tempted.

Premier Golden Earth led the way and Chen Feng utilized his pseudo-Divine artifact to encase the three of them. They advanced for three days before reaching the Yin Yang Treasure Zone that Premier Golden Earth mentioned.

Even from afar, they were able to sense the formidable power of yin and yang. However, what attracted Chen Feng’s attention the most were the battles erupting around the Yin Yang Treasure Zone.

“These fellows may be from the same place. But in the face of a treasure, they would still compete fiercely against one another for it. The allure of treasures could turn even sect brothers and sisters against one another,” Chen Feng said smilingly.

There were over 100 True Immortals gathered there. Some were using the power of yin and yang there to cultivate while some fought one another.

All of them were from the Seven Orders and Six Factions from the Heavenswave Star Region.

“It truly is a treasure zone. It would not have attracted so many people otherwise. However, what do we do now? Surely, we’re not just going to just charge in.”

“Yes, we’ll just charge in,” Chen Feng said, revealing all three of them there.

“Who?”

“Someone else has come. Which sect are they from?”

“Eh, I don’t recognize these three fellows. No, they don’t look like someone from our Seven Orders and Six Factions.”

“Could the members of other sects have entered as well?”

“No. These fellows are simply not cultivators from our Heavenswave Star Region. I fought against them before. They are not to be trifled with. They possess a pseudo-Divine artifact.”

“A pseudo-Divine artifact!”

The appearance of Chen Feng’s team of three triggered a change. The cultivators who were fighting one another there stopped fighting and some moved forward to block Chen Feng’s team. There was an eager look on their faces.

“Chen Feng, what are you doing? There’s too many of them. We are no match for them all.” Huo Yunlong grew concerned.

“We are indeed no match for them. However, they are also not strong enough to take us down,” Chen Feng said with a smile.

“Greetings, fellows. We are from the Death Dimension.” Chen Feng took the initiative to greet them.

“What, the Death Dimension?!” All of the cultivators there grew shocked.

“Sounds about right. There is an aura of the Death Dimension on them.”

“I’m not sure about that. Still, these three fellows are not from our Heavenswave Star Region. Fellows, let’s join forces to kill them.”

“Hold up. Since they are from the Death Dimension, they must have gained control over the passageway leading to the Death Dimension.”

“Heh! They’re just starter-level True Immortals. I’ll do it.”

One of them said before raising his hand. Then, a black magic treasure released a peculiar soundwave to assail Chen Feng’s team of three. The magic treasure was very fast and the many holes on its surface released whining sounds capable of disturbing minds.

“It’s Heavensday Faction’s Heavenly Dark Shuttle. It’s good that someone is attacking. This way, we’ll be able to gauge the other party’s strength.”

“Yes. The Heavensday Faction is willing to take action. That is for the best.”

As they were discussing the issue, starlight abruptly flashed out and the Heavenly Dark Shuttle disappeared from sight. It was as though it had jumped into another space completely, leaving not a single ripple behind. As for Chen Feng’s team of three, they chuckled [1].

“What?! My Heavenly Dark Shuttle!” The face of the one who attacked sank and several of his fellow sect brothers and sisters rushed forward, wanting to besiege Chen Feng’s team.

“Fellows, please listen to me for a while,” Chen Feng said.

“Hand over my Heavenly Dark Shuttle first, otherwise you fellows will die! Even if you fellows are from the Death Dimension, offending our Heavensday Faction means that you fellows will die here!” the cultivator said fiercely.

“Honestly, I really couldn’t care less about your Heavensday Faction.”

Hearing those words from Chen Feng infuriated the cultivators from the Heavensday Faction. Thus, all of them brought forth their magic treasures to attack.

“Scram!”

Chen Feng suddenly shouted and a mote of starlight abruptly exploded. Starlight flashed about everywhere to form a curtain of light, which blocked all the incoming attacks. The curtain of light then expanded, forcing the cultivators from the Heavensday Faction to give ground.

Bang!

The curtain of light disappeared and Chen Feng looked at the somewhat miserable-looking cultivators from the Heavensday Faction.

“No mid-level True Immortal took action. If it’s just a few of them, there is nothing to fear.”

“Attack!”

The cultivators from the Heavensday Faction wanted to attack again.

“Looks like your Heavensday Faction wants to act on your own. However, you should consider the consequences of your actions first,” Chen Feng said coolly.

It was then that the cultivators from the Heavensday Faction faltered. They looked around and saw that the cultivators from the other sects were not moving at all. Rather, they were looking on, gloating at their predicament.

“These bastards!”

“Fellows, why aren’t you fellows attacking? Do you want these few outsiders to get a share of this?”

“Ha ha ha! They’re just some minor cultivators. Can your Heavensday Faction not handle this?” one of them laughed.

“That’s right. Your Heavensday Faction’s Heavensday Formula is renowned in all of Heavenswave Star Region. Dealing with a few nameless fellows should be a piece of cake.”

“That’s right. Us taking action here would be an act of disrespect towards your Heavensday Faction.

“You fellows should take care of this trivial matter on your own.”

When they heard that, the cultivators from the Heavensday Faction grew so infuriated, they nearly puked out blood. If would be one thing if Chen Feng’s team was easy to deal with. However, these three fellows had a pseudo-Divine artifact in their possession. That was a super weapon. Even if they were to utilize their secret techniques to finish off the three of them, it would certainly end with them suffering from some losses. Under such circumstances, the other cultivators would surely take advantage of them later.

The other cultivators did not want to take action while they themselves were unwilling to be the one that was punished for taking the lead. However, their side had already chosen to take action earlier. To suddenly back out now would put them in an embarrassing position.

“We’ll give you three fellows another chance. Just leave right now!” one of the cultivators from the Heavensday Faction said icily.

Chen Feng, though, merely scoffed and said nothing.

“Oh, someone else has come.”

Something like a blazing sun flared out from afar. With a flash, it then appeared before them all and a cultivator in cyan armour stood respectfully before Chen Feng.

“Young Master.”

Chen Feng simply chuckled and said nothing. True Immortal Soulboost’s eyelids twitched and he moved to stand silently beside Chen Feng.

“A mid-level True Immortal! To think that another mid-level True Immortal would appear.” Seeing that, the cultivators from the Seven Orders and Six Factions were surprised. The mid-level True Immortal stage was the strongest cultivation level for all the cultivators who had entered this place for training.

“Fellows, should we really continue to fight each other? If I am not mistaken, this treasure zone is not as simple as it looks. There might be other dangers around. Rather than fight each other to the death, why not help one another to explore this treasure zone?” Chen Feng said smilingly.

“Return the Heavenly Dark Shuttle to us!”

“Not a problem.” Chen Feng waved his hand to send the Heavenly Dark Shuttle he collected back to them.

After that, the cultivators from the Heavensday Faction said nothing as they walked to the side, not taking action anymore.

“Ha ha ha ha! To think that the Heavensday Faction is so cowardly. The other party actually scared them until they dared not take action anymore.”

“They are usually very arrogant, but now that they are out, they dare not even show their face.”

“The way I see it, the Heavensday Faction is only average. When I return, I will suggest to my sect that we go attack the Heavensday Faction.”

The Heavensday Faction’s actions of retreating caused the cultivators from the other sects to ridicule them. Even though they were from the same star region, they were also competitors there.

“You fellows have a death wish!” The cultivators from the Heavensday Faction grew enraged.

“And what if we are? What? Do you fellows have the guts to attack?”

Just as a new conflict was about to break out, a change happened to the Yin Yang Treasure Zone. A loud sound rang out and circular shockwaves spread out from the Yin Yang Treasure Zone. At the same time, several figures swiftly flew out from the place. They were the cultivators who had been exploring inside.

A total of 20 cultivators had entered back then, but only four came out. Moreover, they appeared somewhat dispirited and their essence, energy and soul power appeared unstable. Clearly, this was the result of them utilizing a secret technique to burn their essence power.

“What happened inside?”

“Where are the others?”

The cultivators who were waiting outside moved forward.

“Hurry, leave this place!”

“Run!”

Unexpectedly, the four cultivators who emerged did not stop. Instead, they sped up to fly far away.

A crisis was coming.

“I sense that something is about to charge out from the Yin Yang Treasure Zone.”

“I sense the aura of an extra-terrestrial creature.”

Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou!

As Chen Feng and the others were considering whether or not they should retreat, four black streams of light rushed out from the Yin Yang Treasure Zone to pierce the four fleeing cultivators.

The streams of light then disappeared, but the four cultivators had died.

“This is bad! Run!”

It was then that everyone began panicking. All four cultivators had been True Immortals. And yet, they had failed to put up any resistance before the streams of light instantly killed them.

Chi! Chi!

More streams of light flew out. This time, it was not black, but white in colour. One of them shot towards Chen Feng.

Given how fast the stream of light was, Chen Feng knew that attempting to evade was useless. With a thought from Chen Feng, a stream of water rushed out before him.

This was the power of the Primary Spirit Diagram of First Origin. Even so, the white stream of light was still able to pierce through it. Chen Feng then swung his hand and sword light flashed out to cleave the white stream of light.

With a beckoning motion, the cleaved white stream of light fell into Chen Feng’s hand, where it rapidly wriggled to transform into an extra-terrestrial creature that Chen Feng had never seen before. It pounced upon Chen Feng, desirous of biting him. But sword energy flashed out from Chen Feng’s palm to swiftly shred it to pieces, which then melted into strands of energy.

“This is the tentacle of the extra-terrestrial creature hiding inside the Yin Yang Treasure Zone. It is very powerful, capable of instantly killing off a starter-level True Immortal,” Chen Feng said with a chuckle. The earlier attack had been capable of piercing through even the defensive shield of a pseudo-Divine artifact. Thus, the other two cultivators who were under attack had already died.

Two more cultivators were killed off. Seeing that, the others were incapable of staying there anymore. In just the blink of an eye, they had put a distance of over 5,000 kilometres between them and the Yin Yang Treasure Zone.

“What was that?”

“Is there even a need to ask? It must be a formidable extra-terrestrial creature. In other words, the cultivators who entered earlier…”

“Yes. All of them must have died already.”

“Could the other party be a high-level True Immortal? If that is the case, we should just leave.”

“This is a Yin Yang Treasure Zone. I cannot accept this.”

“Beats dying here.”

Chen Feng’s team of three had also put some distance between themselves and the Yin Yang Treasure Zone. The other party stopped attacking and the Yin Yang Treasure Zone returned to a tranquil state. In Chen Feng’s opinion, if the other party were to continue attacking, even retreating a distance of tens of thousands of li was useless.
