# Chapter 1827: Catching a Turtle in a Jar
The Qitian Fortress Fortress Master, upon hearing the words of the messenger from Wentian Fortress, pondered inwardly. Given Lin Feng and his group's terrifying combat power, if they attacked his Qitian Fortress, his fortress would indeed be unable to withstand them, facing the threat of catastrophic destruction. Going to Wentian Fortress, where the forces of three sides could gather together, was undoubtedly a good plan. However, Qitian Fortress was vast and expansive. Could he really bring everyone to Wentian Fortress? If he did, even if Qingdi Mountain eventually subdued Heavenly Terrace, his Qitian Fortress would likely be ridiculed by the people of the Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortress Region. The Qitian Fortress, one of the ruling powers of this region, had been scared into completely fleeing and hiding by Heavenly Terrace.
"Fortress Master, even if the Heavenly Terrace people descend upon Qitian Fortress first, as long as the Fortress Master and his people are not present, Lin Feng probably won't dare to do anything to Qitian Fortress," the Wentian Fortress messenger spoke again, causing the Qitian Fortress Fortress Master's expression to flicker. The other party was helping him find an excuse to withdraw.
"You're right. Pass my order: gather the elite of Qitian Fortress, assemble together, and set out for Wentian Fortress," the Qitian Fortress Fortress Master declared. The people below understood and went outside to gather, assembling not only elite experts but also the most direct bloodline descendants.
Not long after, when the crowd had assembled, the Qitian Fortress Fortress Master led a group of figures rolling away, heading toward Wentian Fortress.
Just one hour after they left, Lin Feng and his group descended with overwhelming momentum. In the void, vast auras spread down, and the oppressive atmosphere in Qitian Fortress reached its peak. Lin Feng, leading the Heavenly Terrace people, had arrived.
Lin Feng and the others stood in the void, directly descending upon the central fortress of Qitian Fortress, and shouted down: "Heavenly Terrace members, Great Zhou Immortal Palace, paying a visit to Qitian Fortress."
No one responded. Then a figure appeared below, looking up at Lin Feng and the others in the void, and roared: "The Fortress Master has been invited by Wentian Fortress to visit them. If the Heavenly Terrace members have matters, you may go directly to Wentian Fortress to visit our Fortress Master."
"They ran?" Tantai revealed a strange expression and shouted: "If you're hiding, just say so. What 'invited by Wentian Fortress'? Shameless."
A cold light flashed in Lin Feng's eyes. His Death Eye stared at the speaker, who felt his entire body tremble, as if invaded by the Eye of Death. Death intent spread through him, and his life was being stripped away.
"Die!" Lin Feng's Death Pupil pierced through space. Death intent descended, and the person below instantly turned ashen, collapsing limply. A mere messenger had too weak a will.
"Lin Feng, you are far too lacking in magnanimity," several figures appeared at this moment, one of them speaking coldly.
"Magnanimity? When your Qitian Fortress bullied the people of the Small World, why didn't you think of those two words? Now your Fortress Master has fled for his life, abandoning you. Does he think Qitian Fortress can still exist like this?" Lin Feng's pupils were icy cold. Qitian Fortress had kept the Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortresses penned up like livestock, treating them as their hunting grounds. Seven Kills killed people, the strong preyed on the weak, eliminating the weak and selecting the strong, then controlling them, turning them into Qitian Fortress's puppets. For ten thousand years, the Small World had been kept penned up by Qitian Fortress, like their pet enclosure, arbitrarily bullied and toyed with. How many people had died? How many had lost their freedom? If not for his chance encounter, he, Yuan Fei, and the others would have been among those reduced to slave puppets.
"Palace Master Zhou, I think it would be better for Qitian Fortress to be handled by you," Lin Feng's gaze shifted slightly, looking at the Great Zhou Immortal Palace's Palace Master, causing Palace Master Zhou's expression to turn cold. Lin Feng wanted to cut off his retreat.
"Fine." Palace Master Zhou waved his hand, a cold killing intent flashing in his eyes as he ordered the Great Zhou Immortal Palace experts: "Those above Martial Emperor, kill without mercy; those below Martial Emperor, cripple their cultivation and destroy Qitian Fortress."
"Palace Master Zhou is indeed ruthless enough," Lin Feng's pupils contracted. Then the Great Zhou Immortal Palace people descended with slaughter. Qitian Fortress's doomsday had arrived.
"Lin Feng, to be blunt, Qitian Fortress's core figures are probably no longer here. We must act quickly, then head to Wentian Fortress to eliminate the remaining remnants," the Great Zhou Immortal Palace's Palace Master said coldly. Since they had made a move, they had to kill completely, uproot the weeds. Those who could threaten his Great Zhou Immortal Palace from Qitian Fortress had to be erased to avoid endless future troubles.
"No rush." Lin Feng smiled slightly. He naturally understood the other party's thoughts.
Almost simultaneously, a very similar scene was unfolding at the Medicine King Immortal Palace. However, those carrying out the slaughter were not the Great Zhou Immortal Palace people, nor the Heavenly Terrace people, but the Sikong Heavenly Fortress people. How could Lin Feng forget the Sikong Heavenly Fortress? So, while he led some Heavenly Terrace experts to the Great Zhou Immortal Palace, Fox Moon Demoness, Jun Moxi, and another group descended upon the Sikong Heavenly Fortress, coercing them into making the same choice. At that time, the Sikong Heavenly Fortress Fortress Master had even considered first pretending to go to the Medicine King Immortal Palace to observe the situation. However, upon arriving at the Medicine King Immortal Palace, he discovered that the most elite figures were already gone. Helpless, they could only choose a path with no return, cursing Heavenly Terrace's ruthlessness in their hearts. They had forced even his Sikong Heavenly Fortress to be unable to stay out of it, dragged into this conflict. Throughout the entire Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortress Region, it seemed that all forces that had enmity with Lin Feng had been drawn in.
When everything was settled, ultimately, everything pointed toward the direction of Wentian Fortress. Now, Qitian Fortress and the Medicine King Immortal Palace were already devastated, destroyed in one fell swoop. The people of both main cities were deeply shocked. Heavenly Terrace had truly made its move, striking with lightning speed. It seemed that at Wentian Fortress, there would be a real decisive battle.
Countless figures rushed toward Wentian Fortress. Heavenly Terrace, Great Zhou Immortal Palace, and Sikong Heavenly Fortress also headed to Wentian Fortress.
When everyone descended, above Wentian Fortress, the vast Martial Emperor armies of both sides faced off. The people of Qitian Fortress and the Medicine King Immortal Palace had bloodshot eyes, staring coldly and mercilessly at the crowd opposite. They had already received news of the destruction. The headquarters of Qitian Fortress and the Medicine King Immortal Palace had been destroyed.
"Great Zhou Immortal Palace, Sikong Heavenly Fortress, you are ruthless indeed," cold, merciless voices rolled out. The experts of Qitian Fortress and the Medicine King Immortal Palace were nearly bursting with rage, their killing intent terrifying. The news they had received was that Heavenly Terrace had not said how to deal with them, but the Great Zhou Immortal Palace and Sikong Heavenly Fortress had made the cruel decision to completely destroy them, uprooting the weeds.
"A wise man submits to circumstances. From now on, Heavenly Terrace will rule this region. It is only natural for them to follow Heavenly Terrace's orders," Lin Feng said calmly, causing the people of Great Zhou Immortal Palace and Sikong Heavenly Fortress to curse inwardly. They had not wanted to wade into this muddy water, but Lin Feng's coercion left them no choice. Now there was no turning back.
"Lin Feng, the Azure Emperor has already descended. Your day of death is near," the Qitian Fortress Fortress Master's body exuded killing intent. Lin Feng spoke disdainfully: "In that case, I'll eliminate you before the Azure Emperor descends. Great Zhou Immortal Palace and Sikong Heavenly Fortress, heed my Heavenly Terrace's command!"
As Lin Feng's words fell, terrifying aura rolled from his body, as if igniting the oppressive atmosphere. In an instant, the overwhelming aura that swept through everything in the void spread wildly. The confrontation of six major terrifying forces was about to erupt.
"Kill!" Where Lin Feng's sword pointed, killing intent filled the sky. The people of Great Zhou Immortal Palace and Sikong Heavenly Fortress charged out. The people of Wentian Fortress, Qitian Fortress, and the Medicine King Immortal Palace also charged out. Among these forces, Qitian Fortress and the Medicine King Immortal Palace had the strongest killing intent, as if they wished to devour the people of Great Zhou Immortal Palace and Sikong Heavenly Fortress.
"A war of destruction!" The pupils of the onlookers in the distance contracted. This battle was definitely a war of destruction.
However, when the terrifying battle erupted, the people of Great Zhou Immortal Palace and Sikong Heavenly Fortress were horrified to discover that although Lin Feng had released a powerful aura, he was standing still in place, not moving. Not only Lin Feng, but not a single person from Heavenly Terrace moved. They just stood there in the void watching.
"Bastard!" At this moment, they all cursed Lin Feng in their hearts, but it was useless. They could no longer divide their attention. The people of Qitian Fortress and the Medicine King Immortal Palace charged at them like madmen. When they discovered that Heavenly Terrace had not joined the battle, they unleashed their strongest power, trying to crush and destroy the people of Great Zhou Immortal Palace and Sikong Heavenly Fortress in a short time.
"Heavenly Terrace is ruthless indeed. This is making the forces of the Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortress Region slaughter each other. After this battle, if Heavenly Terrace becomes the ultimate victor, except for those few forces that did not participate in the battle and preserved their strength, the other forces will likely be weakened. And those few forces that did not participate seem to be the ones that had provoked Lin Feng less."
Martial Emperors began to fall. Terrifying law power began to dissipate wildly. The crowd watched the brutal battle with shock and horror. At this moment, Lin Feng and his group finally moved. The Heavenly Derivation Chessboard rolled out and expanded, continuously enlarging, as if to lift up the entire void. In his hand appeared the Eight Treasures Sun Wheel, with eight dazzling sun lights faintly visible.
Jun Moxi held the Nether King Spear and descended at a major position. Wu transformed into his true form, wearing the Sun Crown, descending at another position. Qing Feng, draped in a black feathered robe, descended in the upper void. Fox Moon giggled. These little fellows really surprised her. There was nothing for her to do; she only needed to watch from the side.
Hou Qinglin and other experts also guarded various positions, as if they were going to seal off this entire heaven and earth.
Lin Feng stepped forward. On the Heavenly Derivation Chessboard, light shone brilliantly. Array light spread out. The endless chess pieces seemed to evolve on their own, beginning to extend beneath the fighting crowd, causing everyone to be shocked.
"Die!" Lin Feng took the first step. Array Dao light bloomed on the Heavenly Derivation Chessboard. Suddenly, at a certain position, a destructive killing force instantly rushed into the sky, burying and killing one person. That person was a Qitian Fortress expert. Today, they would catch a turtle in a jar. From today onward, the true control of this region would belong only to Heavenly Terrace!
