Chapter 368: Striking Back

Wenren Caifeng’s words, although somewhat unexpected, seemed understandable.

A group of truly immortal people, after abandoning their homeland, came to such a world that was constantly sucking the blood of their homeland to survive. It’s hard to imagine that it would be a harmonious scene.

Perhaps, these people each had their own purposes, but in any case, there was no deep friendship between them.

This kind of indifferent state was not surprising at all.

Wenren Caifeng continued.

“That Eighth Realm is named Fairy Kong Ling, and she was also a prominent figure in her time. At first, because of my connection with Azure Sky Sacred Ground, we got along quite well.” Wenren Caifeng seemed a little regretful when she said this. “I didn’t explain the ‘Federation’ force, and she also kept many secrets, which is quite normal. Moreover, she told me a lot about that world. Although the Eighth Realm cultivators basically don’t interact with each other, there are some from the same sect who are closer. In addition, the Eighth Realm cultivators of Taiyuan Sect are an exception. They are more united than the others, as if there is some factor connecting these thirteen Great Sages.”

Wenren Caifeng spoke slowly, as if she was a little distracted due to the ongoing treatment, like she was reminiscing.

Shen Xing also listened attentively.

Especially when he heard about the thirteen Great Sages of Taiyuan Sect.

Obviously, the reason why Wenren Caifeng specifically sent a message earlier, telling them not to destroy the entire Taiyuan Sect, was related to these Great Sages from Taiyuan Sect.

Moreover, it was indeed a bit special.

They had already abandoned their sect and fled to such a small world to survive. It’s hard to imagine that they would still be connected by the bond of their sect.

“I originally wanted to inquire about more information, but Fairy Kong Ling seemed to have sensed something and didn’t say much.” Wenren Caifeng’s eyes gradually narrowed when she said this. “Until one day, she came over and asked me if the Federation came from another world.”

“We were discovered?” Shen Xing raised his eyebrows.

“It was the people of Taiyuan Sect.” Wenren Caifeng nodded. “The Eighth Realm cultivators of Taiyuan Sect, for some reason, seem to maintain a certain connection with the sects of the Tai Xu World. They learned some things about the Federation and concluded that we came from outside the Tai Xu World.”

This was not a big problem in itself.

However, after that, more and more Great Sages began to take the initiative to come over and ask her about the information of the Federation’s world.

Some Great Sages even had a very tough attitude.

At that time, in Wenren Caifeng’s view, it was just that these Great Sages wanted a broader world.

She was quite straightforward and began to really disguise herself as a world in this universe, and took out some unique technologies, trying to integrate into this group of only eighty-odd people.

This was also the reason why Wenren Caifeng was the first to ascend.

She herself had a personality that was good at socializing. Even if others knew that the martial arts she cultivated followed the path of “enchantment,” they would still be involuntarily immersed in her charm. At the very least, it was easy to become friends with her.

At first, it was indeed very successful.

However, at a certain moment, very suddenly, everything changed.

“The Sages of Taiyuan Sect seemed to be extremely concerned about our Federation Sacred Ground. They inquired in various ways, including threats, especially focusing on how we came to the Tai Xu World.” Wenren Caifeng’s expression turned ugly at this point. “Later, Ji Long also came over. They became more and more aggressive, and even fought with Ji Long several times. After witnessing Ji Long’s martial arts attainments, they became even more hostile, even a little crazy.”

Hearing this, Shen Xing’s expression also became somewhat grave.

Something was wrong.

Very wrong.

Without mentioning anything else, the mere fact that the word “crazy” appeared in front of these Eighth Realm Great Sages was already quite surprising.

It should be known that each Great Sage in this world had cultivated for at least hundreds of thousands of years. Even the youngest one had cultivated for tens of thousands of years.

Those who could step into the Eighth Realm were all outstanding in terms of mentality and talent.

For such beings to show a crazy side, and not just one or two, it could only mean that there was something they cared about very much!

The fact that they were pressing for the method of coming to this world made Shen Xing particularly vigilant.

After all, they came to this world precisely because of the shuttle!

“We realized that the reason for their madness might be related to you,” Wenren Caifeng said. “Generally speaking, ordinary Sages, even Great Sages, seeing your abilities, would at most think that it is a portable space treasure. Although rare in this world, it is not impossible. There have been Eighth-Grade Divine Weapons with similar effects.”

Shen Xing nodded.

That was indeed the case.

That’s why he dared to use the shuttle’s teleportation ability so unscrupulously at the beginning.

Unless it was someone from the Federation who knew that his ability could directly cross between two different universes, no one would think of different universes at once.

After all, these people in the Tai Xu World might not even know the concept of different universes!

“However, they do know, at least they clearly recognize your extraordinary nature,” Wenren Caifeng said with certainty. “This is the reason for their madness. Later, when Xue Weiguo ascended, we had completely fallen out with each other. If they weren’t still concerned about the endurance of this Eighth Realm world, they would probably have tried to capture us at all costs. The threat of ‘not destroying Taiyuan Sect’ was also issued by them at that time. Even the message I sent to you was transmitted under their surveillance.”

So that’s it.

Shen Xing now understood why Wenren Caifeng suddenly sent such a message without further explanation.

On the one hand, they were probably also confused at that time. On the other hand, this message was actually sent under the surveillance of the other party.

Even if they didn’t understand the language, they could still get a lot of information from the length of the content.

“You’ve really had a hard time,” Shen Xing could imagine the difficulty.

“It was indeed not easy, but it wasn’t really dangerous,” Wenren Caifeng smiled. “First of all, only about thirty people were actually taking action against us. Most of the others were just watching. Secondly, that world can’t withstand a battle between Eighth Realm cultivators. Every time they fought with us, they had to allocate a lot of people to reinforce the whole world. Most importantly, they actually miscalculated our strength.”

Speaking of the last point, Wenren Caifeng also showed a bit of the demeanor of an Eighth Realm powerhouse.

This was also the reason why she was able to break through.

In the eyes of those Great Sages, although the period just after a breakthrough was the time of fastest growth in strength, it was also the weakest time.

However, the foundation of the Human Federation’s martial artists was there.

These three Eighth Realm cultivators had been suppressing their realm and strength until they could no longer suppress it, and had to leave.

In addition to the shortcomings they had made up for over the years, their strength might not be able to defeat the Eighth Realm cultivators of the Tai Xu World, but at least, those who could create Heaven Grade Martial Path Intents were definitely not weak.

After all, in a situation where Yuan Qi was not abundant, even if those Eighth Realm cultivators had stepped into this realm for many years, they were actually standing still.

There wasn’t even a single mid-Eighth Realm cultivator!

“There are still some things that I don’t understand,” Shen Xing reviewed all the things Wenren Caifeng had said and couldn’t help but frown slightly. “Why would they issue such a threat to Taiyuan Sect? In theory, they should no longer care about Taiyuan Sect at all.”

“I also asked this question, but even those who seemed neutral did not answer at all,” Wenren Caifeng shook her head. “I couldn’t get any results from probing either. However, Taiyuan Sect must have something extraordinary!”

“That’s right!” Shen Xing nodded.

◈◈◈

So, there were still two options in front of them.

First, according to the plan, directly go and gather allies, and strike back.

Expel all those Eighth Realm cultivators, and then find the remaining people to ask about the secret of Taiyuan Sect.

The second is to go to Taiyuan Sect to investigate.

See if they could find anything.

No matter which option they chose, they had to hurry.

Shen Xing didn’t wait for Wenren Caifeng to recover from her injuries. His figure instantly appeared in the Human Federation. He directly contacted the Supreme Councilors and convened another supreme meeting.

The Supreme Councilors looked solemn after hearing about the situation.

“Actually, I’ve been worried about one thing,” Lin Zhaoyang said. “Those who created the interdimensional battlefields set up such a dangerous secret realm with coordinate functions in the interdimensional battlefield fragments. Could they have done something similar in the Tai Xu World?”

“That’s right, I have the same concern,” Shen Xing nodded.

The behavior of these Eighth Realm Great Sages was indeed strange.

But if it was related to those who were so powerful that they could collide worlds, everything could be explained.

In a world where martial arts reigned supreme, the strong would only become humble in front of the stronger.

Wasn’t this desperate attempt to capture Wenren Caifeng and the others a kind of “humility”?

“If there is really such a possibility, then we can’t just investigate Taiyuan Sect casually,” Lin Zhaoyang said seriously. “The secret realms left by those people are very dangerous, very dangerous even for Eighth Realm cultivators.”

“I understand!” Shen Xing nodded.

The only Great Sage of the Human Federation who had fallen had fallen in a similar place.

The degree of danger was conceivable.

Although Shen Xing had enough confidence in his shuttle ability, facing an opponent with very little information, he shouldn’t take risks unless there was no other way.

Ironically, more people who drowned were those who could swim.

“Then we can only start with the Great Sages of the Eighth Realm world,” Shen Xing continued. “Wenren Caifeng came back to ask for help, so it’s up to you.”

“This is good news,” Lin Zhaoyang laughed.

“That’s right,” another Supreme Councilor nodded. “These old bones of ours have long wanted to move around.”

“You guys are getting old, don’t drag me into it.”

“Fighting to the death with Eighth Realm human powerhouses, this is the first time.”

“I’m also looking forward to it.”

“…”

Shen Xing could tell that these people were not comforting him. This fighting spirit was also genuine.

The martial artists who came out of the Dark Era of the Human Federation were not comparable to him in terms of combat and killing. In other words, in that era without various high-tech equipment and powerful martial arts intents, every strong person who emerged came from a sea of blood and corpses.

Their desire for battle was also genuine!

Under these circumstances, even Shen Xing couldn’t help but look forward to it.

Being able to fight alongside such a group of seniors, it was indeed easy to feel a surge of fighting spirit.

“Then let’s go, I’ll pick you up,” Shen Xing said. His figure flashed, and he directly appeared at the previously set spatial coordinates.

“Your ability, whether it’s powerful or not, its portability is really enviable,” Lin Zhaoyang was the first to arrive. Looking at Shen Xing, he still looked the same as before.

“It’s not without its drawbacks,” Shen Xing laughed. “I’ve directly lost the joy of traveling.”

“Hahahaha.” Several laughs came.

The other five Supreme Councilors had all arrived.

These six had always been guarding the front line of the interdimensional battlefield, not only to suppress the Eighth Realm giant beasts here, but also because if one day, the people who brought all this really returned, this place would also be the easiest to find.

They seemed relaxed, but in fact, they were always ready to fight those people.

Therefore, the current situation obviously couldn’t scare them.

“Let’s go, can your world withstand the arrival of so many of us Eighth Realm cultivators?” Lin Zhaoyang asked.

“The world may not be able to withstand it, but I can,” Shen Xing laughed.

The biggest difference between the world he created and ordinary worlds was that the Yuan Power that made up the entire world was fused with his Divine Soul, his will, and it was his Yuan Power.

Therefore, the endurance of such a world was actually greater than that of the Tai Xu World.

“Then let’s go,” Lin Zhaoyang nodded.

Shen Xing directly swept everyone with his Yuan Power and instantly arrived in his world.

The first thing they saw was Wenren Caifeng, who was carefully absorbing Yuan Power to recover from her injuries. The female councilor walked directly over. With a wave of her hand, a vast amount of Yuan Power swept towards Wenren Caifeng.

Shen Xing was almost startled.

Not because of the vastness of this Yuan Power. This level of Yuan Power was only normal for Eighth Realm cultivators.

It was because of the powerful vitality contained in this Yuan Power.

This kind of vitality was simply not comparable to the vitality he had obtained before. Even the Ten Thousand Dragons Technique, which had now been promoted to the peak of Heaven Grade, seemed to be insufficient in this aspect.

This one was even more surging and vibrant.

It could be imagined that this kind of power would have a powerful effect even on the healing of Eighth Realm cultivators.
