Chapter 854: Invading the Boundless Sea

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chen Feis face slightly changed, his figure flickered, and in an instant, he was already hovering above Thousand Geese City.

Zhao Ruizheng and the others also appeared one by one. They couldnt help but turn their heads towards the direction of the Sacred Citys walls, where a crimson light was blazing, piercing through the clouds.

Activate formation, move out! Chen Fei commanded, flying towards the direction of the city walls.

The bells tolled, and the walls glowed red, signaling an urgent situation at the Sacred Citys defenses.

According to the Sacred Citys rules, at times like this, anyone within the Mountain Sea realm inside the city must unconditionally go to defend the walls. Even if youre in seclusion preparing for a breakthrough, you must set aside your endeavors.

Truly, if the Sacred City walls were breached, seclusion would become a dead end. It was better to block the enemy outside while the walls were still intact.

Chen Fei and the others formed a tactical formation, their elemental energies transforming into giant eagles around them. In the next moment, their speed suddenly surged, and they disappeared from their original position.

They used the Flying Eagle Formation!

This was a combat formation freely distributed in the Mission Hall, capable of boosting speed as long as there were three or more people forming it.

During this period, Chen Fei and his companions had been practicing, and although their coordination wasnt yet flawless, they could now use the formation effectively in real combat.

In less than fifteen minutes, Chen Fei and the others had arrived at the city wall, where numerous lights were steadily approaching from afar.

A faint light s.h.i.+mmered at the center of Chen Feis brow, swiftly bringing scenes from a hundred miles away into sharp focus.

They could see dense shadows surging relentlessly towards the position of the city wall.

The imposing aura of the monsters connected together, forming a bizarre and grotesque visage in the sky, their fierce breath spreading in all directions. Monsters were attacking the city!

Chen Fei frowned slightly. Recently, he had discovered that the monsters were inscribing the runes from the altar into their bodies, which made him instinctively feel that the monsters intended to link with other dimensions.

Yet, the Sacred City had not dispatched a large-scale sweep of these monsters, and instead, they were swarming towards the Sacred City in droves.

This large-scale gathering should have been detected by the Sacred City long ago, hence the alarm.

With the protection of the Sacred Citys walls, they had the advantage over direct confrontation with monsters in the wilderness.

Squawk!

Sharp cries echoed from the side, and Chen Fei turned to see hundreds of Monster Kings appearing in the distance.

Humanity and the monsters now had a relations.h.i.+p of interdependenceany significant losses on either side would greatly alter the balance of the Boundless Sea.

Turning back, Chen Fei continued to observe the horde of monsters a hundred miles away.

Why would they suddenly launch an attack?

The monsters had been quietly doing something, with the Black Divine hiding in the shadows for recovery; this would certainly be more in line with the Black Divines interests.

Although the monsters could be killed endlessly and would reappear later, creating these monsters required the Black Divine to expend some of its essence to manipulate certain rules of the Boundless Sea.

This was actually detrimental to the Black Divines recovery.

On the other hand, having the Sun Moon Realm clear out these monsters would slow down the Black Divines recovery.

Now, the Black Divine was actively allowing the monsters to attack the city. What could be the reason for this?

The monsters were incredibly fast; in just a moment, they were already within fifty miles of the city walls.

At this point, most of the Mountain Sea realm within the Sacred City had already gathered.

There was no need to worry about the other city walls; with such a large-scale movement of monsters, it was impossible for them to go unnoticed. If they aimed to conquer the Sacred City, it would have to be an all-or-nothing gamble.

Suddenly, Chen Feis expression changed slightly. Similarly, the late-stage and peak Mountain Sea realm cultivators also showed signs of alarm.

As the monsters approached this distance, they suddenly began overlapping and then merging together.

In the blink of an eye, their numbers decreased by thirty percent, but within the monster horde emerged a terrifying power.

These monsters, through their overlapping, had somehow achieved the strength of Fifth-Tier.

Six monstrous creatures, each over hundreds of meters in size like mountains, were swiftly advancing.

They appeared c.u.mbersome but moved with astonis.h.i.+ng speed. For these Sixth-Tier monsters, the distance of over fifty miles was nothing but a fleeting moment.

As these six Fifth-Tier monsters emerged, other Mountain Sea realm cultivators also realized something was amiss. Before they could react, these six Fifth-Tier monsters were already at the city walls.

Is this the reason for the monsters siege?

Chen Fei watched as a giant black palm descended from the sky, its majestic aura causing all Mountain Sea realm cultivators and Monster Kings to involuntarily fall onto the city walls.

The terrifying force rendered everyone powerless to move, only able to watch helplessly as the giant palm threatened to crush them into pulp.

Many early-stage Mountain Sea realm cultivators had their minds seized with fear, their eyes showing a hint of terror.

Few can remain calm in the face of death, even among those in the Mountain Sea realm.

Chen Feis gaze flickered, yet he didnt resort to teleportation to escape.

This was the Sacred City, where not only monsters possessed Fifth-Tier strength.

Boom!

Several beams of light instantly struck the six Fifth-Tier monsters, causing them to pause involuntarily before retreating.

All the spiritual treasures held by Mountain Sea realm cultivators trembled slightly, as if paying homage to a sovereign.

Chen Fei looked up as several profound treasures appeared out of thin air, enveloping the Fifth-Tier monsters within them.

The Fifth-Tier monsters roared skyward, their terrifying power causing the surrounding spiritual energy to surge like a tsunami, pounding in all directions. Yet, no matter how they struggled, they could not break free from the control of the profound treasures.

Having Fifth-Tier strength was meaningless without a Fifth-Tier purpose.

The light at Chen Feis brow seemed to materialize, capturing every detail of the Fifth-Tier battle before him.

This was a rare opportunity to closely observe Fifth-Tier power and understand its true nature.

Although he had witnessed the Sun Moon Realms abilities back at the Ethereal Lake, that was merely an attempt to suppress the Black Divines barrier.

It differed greatly from the current intense exchange of blows.

In this clash, Chen Fei could better perceive how the Sun Moon Realm manipulated the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, revealing details unseen in daily encounters.

Suddenly, Chen Fei felt a slight movement in his heart. Vaguely, he sensed faint disturbances in the sky behind him.

Other Sun Moon Realm cultivators? They seem to be leaving quickly.

It was precisely because of their swift departure that Chen Fei caught traces of significant spatial fluctuations. Otherwise, with his current perception, he wouldnt have detected the movements of the Sun Moon Realm experts.

Not only were the Sun Moon Realm experts within the Sacred City leaving rapidly, but the Monster Kings in the direction of the monsters were also swiftly ascending.

Compared to the Sun Moon Realm experts seamless arrivals and departures, the Monster Kings, due to their size, had no need to conceal themselves and thus did not require such meticulous maneuvering.

Are they all going to find the Black Divine? A thought crossed Chen Feis mind.

The monsters attacking the city without reason, and the appearance of Fifth- Tier monster strength, even if it was pseudo-Fifth-Tier, was incredibly terrifying.

The Black Divine wouldnt act without purpose; there had to be other intentions behind this.

The Sun Moon Realms and the Monster Kings were most worried about the Black Divine suddenly recovering to Fifth-Tier strength.

Chen Fei felt a heavy weight on his heart. What would he do if the Black Divine truly regained Fifth-Tier strength?

Should he take the disciples of the Primordial Sword Sect to the plane where the Demonic Body was located?

The spatial channel at Fallen Leaves Mountain was not a conventional one; it had a vast void s.p.a.ce barrier within it.

Chen Fei would have to use his innate teleportation ability to safely transport people across.

However, there were too many people in the Primordial Sword Sect now. At most, Chen Fei could only take a few of the most important individuals with him.

Otherwise, he would exhaust his spiritual energy trying to teleport so many people.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Fifth-Tier monsters were forcibly pushed away from the direction of the city walls by the profound treasures. If not for the monsters exaggerated recovery abilities, they would have been slain by now.

However resilient their recovery, it was only a matter of time before they were finally cut down.

Other Fourth-Tier monsters had already approached the vicinity of the city walls.

Chen Fei gripped the Qianyuan Sword, waiting for the monsters to come closer before striking.

There was no need to rush into the midst of the monster group; with so many Mountain Sea Realm cultivators around, long-range attacks were sufficient to slay these monsters.

Various visions began to appear behind many Mountain Sea Realm cultivators, while thunder crackled behind Chen Fei.

Roar!

The fierce and frenzied visages of the monsters became clear, and suddenly all of them, including the six Fifth-Tier monsters, roared to the sky.

Upon hearing this roar, some recently breakthrough early-stage Mountain Sea realm cultivators almost couldnt resist unleas.h.i.+ng their techniques.

In the next moment, all the monsters, including the six Fifth-Tier ones, abruptly turned and rushed back in the direction they came from.

All the Mountain Sea realm cultivators, including the Monster Kings, were left momentarily stunned by this scene.

Several blurry figures appeared in the sky, their brows furrowing as they watched the monsters madly retreat.

Even the Sun Moon Realm experts were momentarily bewildered by the monsters actions.

Did most of the monsters from the Middle Continent gather just to scare them?

Six profound treasures gleamed brilliantly, cutting down several Fifth-Tier monsters.

Taking advantage of this window of opportunity, the Fourth-Tier monsters scattered and distanced themselves from each other.

After being chased by the Sun Moon Realms for hundreds of miles, about half of the monsters managed to escape.

The Black Divine must be planning something, but now it seems theres been a setback! said Sacred Master Zhan Xuming in a deep voice.

Once we receive news from the others, we should know what the Black Divine is up to! Su Wenyu gazed into the distance and remarked.

Todays events were filled with inexplicable strangeness, yet within that strangeness, there seemed to be a reason.

On the city walls, after the monsters had completely withdrawn, the Mountain Sea Realm cultivators also began to withdraw, returning to their respective factions.

Although the monsters ultimately did not attack the city, the faces of all the Mountain Sea Realm cultivators did not show any joy.

When things are abnormal, there must be demons at play!

A real fight with blades and guns would have been more rea.s.suring.

In the listening room of the Tingfeng Pavilion, Chen Fei briefly sensed the situation on the Demonic Bodys side.

The world was full of fluttering birds and blooming flowers!

However, the Demonic Bodys strength had increased rapidly.

With the resources of Hundred Horn City, the Demonic Body had already advanced to the peak of the Aperture Tempering realm. With a little more consolidation, in a few days, it would have reached the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

The only hindrance to the Demonic Bodys growth hadnt been understanding techniques or insights, but rather the resources for cultivation.

However, given the Demonic Bodys methods, ordinary cultivation resources probably hadnt been in short supply.

I still need a part to complete the Myriad Clone to fully elevate the Thunderstorm Talent to the Grand Completion. I need to figure out a way, Chen Fei frowned.

As for gathering the seventh Divine Palaces elixir, Chen Fei actually lacked half of it. However, once swallowed by the Demonic Body, the seventh Divine Palace could instantly condense. Therefore, there hadnt been a need to worry about it now.

At night, a piece of news spread throughout the Sacred City.

Finally, the reason why the monsters had come and left was known.

Another plane had invaded the Boundless Sea, and no one had known how long the channel had been open. Today, the Fifth-Tier strength had crossed over, catching the attention of the Black Divine.

Now, that Fifth-Tier strength was guarding outside the spatial channel.
