“Senior, are you all right?” Chen Feng sent him a secret vocal transmission.

“Why did you come here? Hurry up and go back! You shouldn’t have come!” seeing Chen Feng, Heavenly Premier Absolute instantly shouted.

Next, Heavenly Premier Absolute joined the battle once more.

The four Ascendant Immortals were no longer as calm as they used to be. Although it would appear that they still held the upper hand, they had expended too much of their strength.

This black wyrm that had joined the battle was massive. Its blood energy vigorous, it could take on several Ascendant Immortals that were on the same level as it.

Due to that, the black wyrm did not bother fighting together with the Wicked Barbarian Deity. Instead, it wanted to take the Immortal Warsoul Palace for itself. In fact, when the black wyrm had first attacked, it had nearly succeeded. However, the four Heavenly Premiers and Wicked Barbarian Deity then attacked it together to repel it.

And thus, the battle entered a somewhat peculiar state. Individually, the four Ascendant Immortals from Eternal World were the weakest. However, they were united. As for the black wyrm and Wicked Barbarian Deity, they were acting solo. Whenever they were in danger, however, the two of them would form a brief alliance. But once the opportunity presented itself, they would attempt to snatch the Immortal Warsoul Palace for themselves.

As the battle continued, the surrounding space was swept clean. As for the Immortal Warsoul Palace, it hovered quietly somewhere 50,000 kilometres away from the battle, only moving about whenever shockwaves from the battle reached it.

If I take action now, I should be able to obtain the Immortal Warsoul Palace. However, there is absolutely no way I can evade their pursuit. Forget it, then. I should just wait it out. If no other forces interfere, all sides would end up with a mutual destruction scenario. That said, not one of them is a fool. They would not allow the situation to develop in that direction, not even for a great treasure.

“Tower, what do you think?” Chen Feng, who floated about in space, sent his focus into the Longevity Tower. After having recovered up to the Dao artefact tier, a slight change had come over the tower. All else aside, the rise in energy streams within the tower was a noticeable change. There were various types of energy streams. However, they were mainly the longevity-type energy and spiritual energy from the Immortal Plane.

Tower’s body had become more solid, almost no different compared to a real human. He sat on one of the spiritual trees inside, cultivating himself while repairing the magic arrays within the tower.

In order to be capable of automatically absorbing spiritual energy to cultivate, a magic treasure had to at least be at the Immortal tier. As an existence surpassing the Immortal tier, the Longevity Tower innately possessed extraordinary powers and skills.

After hearing Chen Feng’s question, Tower did not bother spending any time pondering it before answering, “There is something peculiar about the immortal palace.”

“Peculiar, what do you mean?” Chen Feng’s eyes lit up.

“It’s just peculiar. As for the details, I am unable to figure it out. However, I would suggest that you wait. At any rate, this battle will be highly beneficial for you.”

“That’s is true. Once again, I am not interested in other items. I just want to know what is calling out to me.”

“Maybe it is just a mirage.”

The battle lasted for a long time. In the end, even Chen Feng felt somewhat restless. Finally, all of them unanimously stopped.

Every one of them possessed a myriad of skills up their sleeves, but they could not decide on one clear victor. Instead, all of them had become wounded. Thus, they stopped before the situation spiralled to a critical state.

The Wicked Barbarian Deity’s aura had become somewhat chaotic while the black wyrm, despite its formidable fleshly body, now suffered from huge wounds on its body.

“This is not the way to go. I suggest opening up the Immortal Warsoul Palace first. We’ll decide again after seeing what is inside it.”

“Yes. If it is only an empty shell, then fighting all the way would not be worth it.”

“Agreed.”

“I have no objections.”

“We can discuss how to divide what’s inside later.”

The three parties who had been fighting to the death just not too long ago quickly came to an agreement.

A peaceful negotiation is indeed for the best. However, that means I will be incapable of fishing in troubled waters, Chen Feng thought.

Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!

Just as they were about to approach the Immortal Warsoul Palace, the space there suddenly turned black as the light from the flashing stars disappeared.

Black energy streams roared as they swept forth from afar. The energy streams seemingly enveloped the entire universe.

As they were all Ascendant Immortals, they could clearly see the energy streams engulfing several desolate planets, shattering them to bits.

Chen Feng also managed to see a cluster of asteroids engulfed, disappearing from sight.

“Void storm!”

“This is bad, a void storm! Run!”

“But-”

“This is not the time to think about anything else. If we do not leave right now, we will not get the chance to do so anymore.”

“Sigh! I’m worried that we won’t make it even if we run now.”

Void storms, also known as the Roaming Reapers of the Universe. Powerful void storms could tear down everything in their path, even a star region.

As for Ascendant Immortals, should they end up getting engulfed by it, they would have a hard time making it out. It was very normal to have Ascendant Immortals die to void storms.

The void storm blotted out the entire stretch of space. One glance at it was enough to tell that it was not a small one. In the face of this void storm, something that represented a serious threat to their lives, the treasure no longer seemed important.

“Run!”

All of them decided to run. However, running away by breaking open space and jumping through the void was not possible. This was a void storm, after all. The surrounding laws of space had been affected. Thus, even if they broke open space, they would only find the void storm inside as well.

Due to that, all of the Ascendant Immortals present displayed their various cards, either relying on magic treasures or fleshly body to swiftly fly away. They wanted to fly out from the area affected by the void storm in advance.

In Chen Feng’s case, although he was slower than them all, he was also the farthest from the void storm. Thus, he gave it his all to fly as fast as he could from the void storm.

“Tower, the void storm should be incapable of destroying you, right?” Chen Feng asked as he flew. Regardless of what happened, he would have to be prepared for the worse.

“Of course not. However, there is no telling where we will end up in after that. We might end up getting tossed into another star region altogether. Should that happen, returning to Eternal World will prove very difficult,” Tower said coolly.

“So scary.” Chen Feng did not know what to say. Turning around to have a look, his heart almost jumped out.

The void storm was gaining on him. Additionally, the area affected by it also grew bigger and bigger. It seemed as though the universe itself was breaking down and the path that Chen Feng was taking was the only way out.

“Too late. Looks like we’ll be unable to run away.”

Sou!

Suddenly, Heavenly Premier Absolute flashed by, grabbing Chen Feng up in the process. On Chen Feng’s end, all he saw was a blur before finding himself in another world. There were mountains, rivers, flowers and grasses there. There were chirping birds and fragrant flowers and other animals darted about. This was a world with life.

This must be the world that Heavenly Premier Absolute opened inside his body, Chen Feng guessed.

“Kid, this is the bodily world that I created. Just stay inside.” Heavenly Premier Absolute’s voice then flowed into Chen Feng’s ear.

“Thank you, senior,” Chen Feng said loudly.

This Heavenly Premier Absolute seems to be a good character. However, will he be able to escape? Chen Feng wondered.

Chen Feng’s divine sense spread out as he sensed the different laws and powers around him. This was a world that an Ascendant Immortal had created. It contained laws that were different from other worlds. It would not be an exaggeration to call it a whole different universe.

That said, as Chen Feng already knew that this was Heavenly Premier Absolute’s bodily world, he did not focus too much on checking out his surroundings. Instead, he calmed himself down as he waited for the result of their escape.

Boom!

Soon enough, the surrounding space began trembling. In the beginning, it was only a minor tremble. Gradually, however, it became violent. In the end, Chen Feng wondered if the world would be destroyed.

So serious? Even his bodily world is about to be destroyed! Chen Feng grew somewhat shocked.

“Senior, do you need help?” Chen Feng asked.

“This void storm is very powerful. I don’t think you will be able to help out much.” Heavenly Premier Absolute’s voice did not sound too well.

“I have an Immortal artefact in hand. It should be able to help our somewhat!” Chen Feng said, thrusting the Heaven Piercing Lance into the ground. Next, the power of an Immortal artefact spread outwards and the world began stabilizing.

“Right, I forgot you possess an Immortal artefact! Looks like I am not fated to die here.” Heavenly Premier Absolute’s delighted voice rang out. Next, Chen Feng could feel the earth sucking the Immortal artefact’s power. He knew that it was the work of Heavenly Premier Absolute.

Things should now be fine. Next, Chen Feng linked up to the Heaven Piercing Lance. Through the Heaven Piercing Lance, he was able to view what was happening outside.

Chaos energy was everywhere. The energy streams were like countless sharp blades, flying and spinning to shred everything in their path to pieces. Heavenly Premier Absolute was charging his way through the energy streams, wielding overwhelming powers to break apart all of the stormy void powers in his path.

That was all Chen Feng could see.

So, this is a void storm! In the past, when Chen Feng had studied the Sky Meteorite, he had also studied the imprints left behind by a void storm. However, those were just imprints and not the real deal. This one he faced possessed the power to destroy even Ascendant Immortals [1].

Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou!

Void powers kept twisting and converging to form countless small spirals. Converging together, the spirals then transformed into highly formidable hurricanes. However, that was not the end of it. The hurricanes continued converging to form an even stronger storm.

Heavenly Premier Absolute’s speed fell again. His strength was rapidly draining away.

Roar!

Heavenly Premier Absolute bellowed to give himself an even greater atmosphere of strength while pushing himself beyond his limits. In the end, his face contorted due to the pressure from the void storm.

Witnessing an Ascendant Immortal struggling against death, Chen Feng’s soul was visited by an indescribable feeling.

“Heaven Piercing Lance, give us more power!” Chen Feng grabbed the Heaven Piercing Lance with both his hands as he burned his own blood, doing his very best to push out this Immortal artefact’s power.

Boom!

A formidable power charged out from Heavenly Premier Absolute’s body to blast a passageway through the void storm.

“Great!”

Heavenly Premier Absolute roared and the pressure bearing down on him lessened. Next, he rapidly charged forward. At the same time, Chen Feng began burning up an ocean-like amount of Immortal crystals, pushing all the energy within the crystals outwards so as to help Heavenly Premier Absolute replenish his expended energy reserve.

Finally, thanks to Chen Feng’s assistance, Heavenly Premier Absolute was able to break out from the void storm. After breaking out, however, he did not slow down. Instead, he sped up further, quickly charging through a distance of 150 million kilometres before stopping.
