“Honestly, these treasures are already quite good. Items that Gold Immortals would collect are surely not ordinary items.” Chen Feng chuckled and kept the treasures.

He had swiftly sensed it earlier. There were a few Divine artifacts amongst the collected treasures. Though, more of them were naturally-occurring divine objects of chaos. That said, there were also some fragments of mid-grade Divine artifacts in the mix. But Chen Feng had no time to perform a detailed examination. It would be bad if the others come over to s.n.a.t.c.h the items from him.

And even though Tun Ri and the others were from the Celestial Longevity Plane, their faces – at that very moment – had become flushed. Most likely, they had gotten themselves quite the haul.

“As expected of a Graveyard of Divine Dragons. Unexpectedly, we would gain so much this time.”

The half-step Gold Immortals ignored Chen Feng's group, but that did not mean that the others would do the same. Due to how far away they were, the other cultivators only managed to obtain 20% of the treasures that were flying around. As it was unrealistic to be competing against the half-step Gold Immortals for the two treasures, they turned their attention towards Chen Feng's group instead.

“Friend, bring out the items and share it. You fellows cannot stomach so many items.” One of them, a high-level Heavenly Immortal with great combat power, charged forward. Killing intent surged out from his whole body.

“Someone wants to die. Kill them,” Chen Feng said calmly. The Divine Sun Needle in his hand flew out to instantly kill off two enemy cultivators.

“I've long since lost my patience! Behold, my Sun Devourer Technique!” Tun Ri displayed his innate skill while Da Feng and the rest attacked.

A chaotic and b.l.o.o.d.y battle ensued. Chen Feng's group was from the Celestial Longevity Plane and their combat power exceeded that of the cultivators from the Immortal Plane. Every clash would result in the deaths of a high number of enemies. However, it did not take long for even more enemy cultivators to charge forward. Due to that, Tun Ri and the others began having a hard time. 

“I wonder if I can link up to the Celestial Longevity Plane here?” Tun Ri began growing enraged. He wanted to link up to the Celestial Longevity Plane to receive its support and increase his strength.

“Friend, as long as you take out half the treasures, we can forget about this.” The one who spoke up was already infinitely close to reaching the half-step Gold Immortal stage. With sword light swirling around him, he looked like someone from the Immortal Sword Sect. 

“Forget about this? No way,” Chen Feng said and he seemingly linked up to something. Next, the black spatial pa.s.sageway re-appeared and a thick power of darkness gushed out from it.

Is the Young Master's friend going to take action? Doesn't the other party want to s.n.a.t.c.h the dragon corpse and dragon spear? Tun Ri felt puzzled.

A muscular Divine Mighty Ape jumped out from the spatial pa.s.sageway. After appearing, its hand swung out to grab a Heavenly Immortal. Next, it roared and ripped the guy in half. It was a most b.l.o.o.d.y sight to behold.

“A Divine Mighty Ape at the high-level Heavenly Immortal stage. More, it cultivates the power of darkness!” Da Feng exclaimed.

It was followed by a second Divine Mighty Ape, then a third, a fourth and a fifth. After a total of five gigantic Divine Mighty Apes appeared, a Demonic Dragon of Darkness – 10,000 zhang in length – charged out from the black pa.s.sageway. The aura of power that it emanated brought Chen Feng and the others a secret feeling of shock.

Demonic Shadow Panthers, Divine Skyroar Wolves, Phantom Beasts, other extrterrestrial creatures filled with the power of darkness and several human cultivators shrouded in black energy streams appeared as well.

After over a hundred of them appeared, the black pa.s.sageway disappeared. Every one of the reinforcements from the Dark Plane was a high-level Heavenly Immortal and they proceeded to unleash carnage the moment they appeared.

Add Tun Ri and the others into the equation, the situation changed completely and the cultivators who were besieging Chen Feng's group were beaten so badly that b.l.o.o.d.y lights kept flaring out from their side. In the end, they had to run away.

“There are so many cultivators from the Dark Plane?” Tian Wu said, feeling surprised. As they were all extrterrestrial creatures, Tian Wu felt a slight connection with those extrterrestrial creatures of darkness.

By then, one of the half-step Gold Immortals had managed to grab hold of the dragon spear. However, several others besieged him, making it incredibly hard to escape.

“Pu!”

The half-step Gold Immortal decided to go the extra mile. Clenching his teeth, he then sprayed out a mouthful of his essence, energy and soul power to temporarily suppress the rampaging dragon spear. Then, with a swing, one of his opponents was sent flying. Following that, he continued brandis.h.i.+ng the dragon spear and his combat power soared. After several exchanges, one of the half-step Gold Immortals became grievously wounded. As for the one with the dragon spear, by stimulating the power of the mid-grade Divine artifact, he fought his way forward, sweeping his opponents away. He was already on the verge of breaking out from their encirclement. 

“Stop him! He has yet to fully gain control over the dragon spear!”

“Once he can fully control it, all of us will die!”

All of the half-step Gold Immortals there had split up into two groups. One group went after the dragon corpse while the other went after the dragon spear. Someone had already obtained the dragon spear while the dragon corpse remained on the ground. It contained great powers and various cultivators kept fighting over it. And despite its toughness and power, it had been left there for too long. In the face of the all-out attacks from the half-step Gold Immortals, cracks began spreading out across the dragon corpse and streams of dragon essence wafted out.

In the end, the dragon corpse blew up with a bang and everyone there rushed to s.n.a.t.c.h the flesh, blood and bones of the dragon corpse.

The situation grew even more chaotic and Chen Feng's group rushed forward as well. Grouping up into one force, they wanted to get a share of the pie.

This was a dragon corpse at the Gold Immortal stage. Even one drop of blood was a great harvest.

Meanwhile, the black pa.s.sageway re-appeared as the gigantic black hand finally found the opportunity it needed. With one slap, it sent a half-step Gold Immortal flying and grabbed hold of the dragon spear. Next, it began leaving, closing the pa.s.sageway behind it. 

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Several attacks burst forward and the black pa.s.sageway finally disappeared. Next, a youngster in black clothes – wielding the dragon spear – strode forward. There was an indifferent expression on his face and black-coloured demonic runes kept emerging from his body. Radiating a ferocious atmosphere of majesty, he stabbed forward with the dragon spear to pierce one of the cultivators there, blowing up his body into two.

“Comparing with others is truly a vexing matter. I had thought that my rate of cultivation is fast. Unexpectedly, this fellow has already reached that level.” Watching the black-clad youngster begin a bloodbath, Chen Feng lamented.

“Young Master, this person exudes the aura of the Dark Plane's essence!” Da Feng said, surprise in his tone. 

“He is my friend, the owner of the Dark Scripture. His strength has risen so quickly. He must have gained control over the Dark Plane.” After Chen Feng said that, his figure dashed forward. The Longevity Wings unfurled from his back and his speed skyrocketed as he rushed to grab the dragon talon that was flying towards him.  

As for the dragon head, he did not bother thinking about it. There was no telling just how many cultivators were fighting to the death over it. 

That said, even the dragon talon was not that easy to obtain. Before Chen Feng could even approach the dragon talon, a fine, golden-coloured blade of light slashed towards him. 

Although the blade of light appeared simplistic and without any special characteristics, Chen Feng could feel that the attack had locked down on both his soul and fleshly body. Even before the attack made contact, Chen Feng's soul felt as though it was already being ripped apart. This was an attack from a half-step Gold Immortal and the targeting power of the grand dao laws. 

Not even the Longevity Wings was able to evade the targeting power of this attack. Thus, the Divine Sun Needle flashed out to collide against the attack. It managed to unravel part of the power behind the attack, but the attack struck Chen Feng in the end.

Boom!

Chen Feng's figure was sent flying, leaving a thick energy wave in the sky. But with a twist, he stabilized himself. His face was somewhat ugly to behold and his body had been wounded somewhat. Even so, it was much lighter compared to the damage he received from the dragon spear's attack earlier. 

A crack had also appeared on the chest portion of his suit of armour, but it swiftly closed up. 

You think you can break through my armour with an attack at the half-step Gold Immortal stage? This is the fragment of a high-grade Divine artifact! Chen Feng beckoned and the Divine Sun Needle flew into his hand. On the surface of the needle were some bloodstains that had yet to evaporate.

Tun Ri and Tian Wu moved forward to hold back the half-step Gold Immortal while Da Feng made use of the opportunity to grab the dragon talon.

“Scram!”

The half-step Gold Immortal became enraged. He was an exalted character. And yet, a mere handful of Heavenly Immortals managed to make a fool of him. More, these Heavenly Immortals were quite strong, capable of s.n.a.t.c.hing a dragon talon away from him. 

Puchi!

The half-step Gold Immortal, wanting to unleash his might, failed to notice the dragon spear descending from the sky. It pierced his body. Next, the Dark Kirin grasped and the dragon spear spun swiftly. In the face of that formidable power, the half-step Gold Immortal's body was ripped to bits. 

In just a short time, the Dark Kirin had seemingly gained control over the dragon spear. After he slaughtered several half-step Gold Immortals, the others no longer dared to attack him. They had to acknowledge that he was now the owner of the dragon spear. Some then turned to s.n.a.t.c.h the scattered parts of the dragon corpse. 

“Let's go.”

The Dark Kirin then stretched his hand and grasped again. s.p.a.ce closed up around them and Chen Feng's group was gathered. Following that, they felt the stars s.h.i.+fting. By the time they landed, they were already who knows how many li away from the tomb.

“Ha ha ha, it's been a while since our last meeting. Unexpectedly, you have already reached the half-step Gold Immortal stage.” Turning to the Dark Kirin, Chen Feng smiled.

This was the trump card that Chen Feng had prepared. Before entering the Graveyard of Divine Dragons, he had already made contact with the Dark Kirin. Only, to serve as a hidden force, the Dark Kirin had been staying hidden all this time. His stealth technique was so perfect that not even the other half-step Gold Immortals were able to sense him. 

“I have completely fused with the Dark Scripture and become the true master of the Dark Plane. I've been spending the recent years fighting in the Dark Plane. The fact that I could advance to this level shocked me as well. Still, you have also managed to advance at an incredible rate.” The Dark Kirin had always maintained a cool demeanour, but the surprise in his eyes revealed his emotions.

“Greetings, senior.” Tun Ri and the others moved forward to greet the Dark Kirin. The Dark Kirin could be considered as a divine creature amongst the extrterrestrial creatures. When it came to the n.o.bility of his genes, he was in no way inferior to the divine dragons. Thus, it was only natural for Tun Ri and the rest to feel a kins.h.i.+p with him. 

“No need to stand on ceremony. Just address me as Dark Night,” The Dark Kirin said, nodding.

“Senior Dark Night, are there any other treasure h.o.a.rds here?” Tun Ri stepped forward to ask inquisitively. 

“I was about to talk about that. This graveyard is very big and I can sense several more divine dragon corpses at the Gold Immortal stage. However, Gold Immortals have already appeared. We are no longer suited for what will happen next,” the Dark Kirin said.  

Bang!

A clump of golden light blew up in the distance and the resulting atmosphere of power caused the entire Graveyard of Divine Dragons to shake. 

“A battle between Gold Immortals!”

“Let's go, we'll leave this place!” The Dark Kirin swiftly took action. Bringing Chen Feng and the others along, he rapidly charged towards the outside world. 

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Golden light illuminated the whole place and the Graveyard of Divine Dragons that had remained indestructible all this time began showing cracks. Some unlucky Heavenly Immortals were swept into the cracks, never to emerge again. 

And despite the protection of the Dark Kirin's power, Chen Feng's group could still feel their scalps going numb. These were genuine Gold Immortals. Just a casual release of their auras would be enough to kill them off. 

“Chen Feng, save us!” As they were fleeing, Chen Feng heard someone call out his name. It sounded very urgent. By utilizing his eye technique, Chen Feng then found Sword Premier Demolisher and the others. They were quite unlucky. In the process of fleeing, they found themselves entrapped by the spatial cracks. Additionally, there were also chaotic streams of golden energy swirling in their surroundings.
