Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

Chapter 602 - 602: Galaxy Descends Nine Heavens



The value of the items exchanged within the Black Divine Temple was unquestionable. Even though these items might have some issues now, as long as the flaws could be rectified, those items remained invaluable.

Just now, amidst the black mist, everyone lost their exchanged items, weakening the seal. In the end, they narrowly escaped, with only Chen Fei managing to pick up those items halfway through.

At that time, many speculated that Chen Fei must have had some special method to avoid being affected by the consequences of the exchanged items.

However, at that moment, preserving one’s life was the most crucial matter. No matter how precious the exchanged items were, they couldn’t be compared to one’s own life.

But now, having already left the Black Divine Realm and resolved the issue of life and death, the value of those exchanged items returns, and more importantly, Chen Fei’s realm had just reached the Combined Aperture Tempering realm!

Chen Daoheng turned to look at Huang Yuheng. Huang Yuheng understood Chen Daoheng’s meaning, thought for a moment, and nodded.

Although just now amidst the black mist, everyone owed a debt of gratitude to Chen Fei, after all, without Chen Fei’s reminder, perhaps everyone would have been slaughtered by the Black Divine Temple followers.

But gratitude is one thing, and exchanged items are another. How can the two be confused?

“You go.” Huang Yuheng’s voice was weak as he spoke softly.

In the black mist, while Chen Daoheng only abandoned his exchanged items, Huang Yuheng exchanged for abilities. Fortunately, the exchange duration was very short. Huang Yuheng used a secret method to forcibly extract these abilities from his body.

But this kind of self-defeating martial arts practice greatly injured Huang Yuheng’s vitality, even directly harming his own origin.

Dealing with someone in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm was almost inevitable for someone at the Mid-Combined Aperture Tempering realm like Chen Daoheng.

“Alright!” Chen Daoheng’s face showed a slight smile as he flickered and disappeared from the spot.

Several miles away, Chen Fei flew in mid-air, relighting the dimmed information on the panel, showing two dusty martial arts techniques.

Just as he was thinking about where to hunt down a Third-Tier early-stage sea demon to complete a routine task and exchange it for a month of rest, Chen Fei suddenly sensed someone approaching from behind.

Chen Fei glanced back and, with his Heavenly Eyes, clearly saw Chen Daoheng’s figure.

Chen Fei furrowed his brows slightly, and after a brief thought, understood Chen Daoheng’s intention. It must be for those exchanged items within the Black Divine Temple.

With just a bit of contribution points, one could exchange for spiritual pills similar to the Purple Fire Spirit Pill. All the dozen or so pills that Chen Fei had picked up were of this caliber, and one of them was even more valuable.

Chen Daoheng hailed from the Fallen Heaven Pavilion, one of the top ten forces of the Thousand Feathers Alliance. He was even considered the pride of the Fallen Heaven Pavilion. Ordinary treasures were of no interest to him.

But unfortunately, what Chen Fei had in his hands at this moment were not ordinary treasures.

Not seeing Huang Yuheng following behind, as soon as the two appeared just now, Chen Fei sensed that Huang Yuheng was injured.

Chen Fei remained expressionless, slightly increasing his speed and flying forward.

In the rear, Chen Daoheng sensed Chen Fei’s acceleration, a scornful smile playing on his face as he too increased his speed.

Chasing the stars and chasing the moon, the two swiftly closed the distance, flying nearly a hundred miles in just a moment. The distance of a dozen miles between them gradually vanished, and in a deserted area of the sea, Chen Fei came to a halt.

“What brings you here?” Chen Fei looked at Chen Daoheng calmly.

“It’s nothing major, just wanted to ask a few questions.”

Chen Daoheng observed Chen Fei’s calm demeanor, his eyebrows twitching slightly. Being intercepted by someone of higher realm in this uninhabited place, Chen Fei remained so composed.

Was it a pretense, or did he truly have something to rely on?

Thinking back to some of Chen Fei’s actions in the Black Divine Realm, Chen Daoheng suddenly felt unsure. Upon careful observation of Chen Fei’s aura, it was indeed undeniable that he was in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

Moreover, based on the information gathered earlier, the other party had not broken through the Combined Aperture Tempering realm for less than ten years. Even with some reliance, what else could he achieve?

“Go ahead,” Chen Fei nodded.

“Stop playing games!”

Chen Daoheng suddenly sneered, his figure flashing as he appeared in front of Chen Fei, directly thrusting a sword towards his forehead.

The Fallen Heaven Technique, Galaxy Descends Nine Heavens!

Majestic and grand, while the Fallen Heaven Technique may not focus on the specialized refinement of the physical body like the techniques of the Tiandao Sect, it inherently carried an aura of suppressing all directions within the elemental force.

As Chen Daoheng unleashed this sword, in Chen Fei’s vision, the surrounding space began to collapse. In just a moment, the surroundings turned pitch black, with only the sword edge continuously enlarging in the sky and the ground.

“Clang!”

The Qianyuan Sword emitted a sword cry, and the illusions around disappeared instantly. Countless sword qi surrounded Chen Fei, then all converged onto the sword edge, bursting out an extremely sharp edge.

A fluctuation passed through his body, activating two forbidden techniques!

Stepping forward, amidst the roar of the Dragon Elephant, Chen Fei swept his sword towards Chen Daoheng.

Chen Fei fully released his aura, revealing the realm of the Mid-Combined Aperture Tempering realm. Moreover, he wasn’t just entering the Mid-Combined Aperture Tempering realm; he had reached the Fifth Transformation of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, just one step away from the Late Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

Chen Daoheng’s head was spinning. What kind of monstrous cultivation speed was this? In terms of realm, the opponent was a whole stage higher than him.

In such a situation, did it even make sense for the other party to directly activate two forbidden techniques?

Chen Daoheng didn’t have time to ponder. Subconsciously, he also activated one forbidden technique, and his aura surged suddenly. However, compared to Chen Fei, he still fell short by a considerable margin.

“Boom!”

The deafening sound reverberated through the sky, punching a hole directly through the clouds above. The sea couldn’t withstand the immense force, evaporating into mist, and the surface instantly sank dozens of meters.

As soon as Chen Daoheng’s sword touched the Qianyuan Sword, he felt an irresistible force crushing down. His sword reversed and slammed into Chen Daoheng’s chest.

In an instant, Chen Daoheng’s chest became a bloody mess, his clothes, skin, flesh, and bones turning into a blur. He spat out a mist of blood, his face pale as gold.

His body flew backward, confusion flooding his mind. He couldn’t understand why Chen Fei was so powerful.

In just ten years, from entering the Combined Aperture Tempering realm to reaching the Fifth Transformation of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, he had skipped nearly two hundred years of cultivation that other martial artists would need. Even the geniuses of the Thousand Feathers Alliance had never heard of such a rapid cultivation speed.

Not only was his cultivation speed remarkable, but his combat power as well. How could someone in the Mid-Combined Aperture Tempering realm unleash such power?

But now wasn’t the time to think about these things. What Chen Daoheng needed to focus on was how to escape. Faced with such power, no matter how he resisted, it would be futile.

The only chance was to flee, to get to Senior Huang’s side, where there might be a glimmer of hope.

The confusion in Chen Daoheng’s eyes vanished, his aura started to retract, and his figure became blurry.

Heavenly Escape!

A life-saving technique from the Fallen Heaven Technique, it could dissipate one’s aura in the blink of an eye, while also unleashing a much faster speed than usual, helping one escape from danger.

Chen Daoheng had always thought he would never need to use this escape technique. Among those of lower cultivation, it was unnecessary to mention, even among his peers in the top forces of the Thousand Feathers Alliance, Chen Daoheng was one of the best.

Even among his peers in the Thousand Feathers Alliance, there were few who could match him in strength at the same realm.

Under normal circumstances, Chen Daoheng wouldn’t provoke those in the Alliance, especially not those with higher cultivation levels. He wasn’t foolish enough to provoke experts beyond the Late Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

But today, reality taught Chen Daoheng a lesson. Someone in the Mid-Combined Aperture Tempering realm could easily beat him to a pulp.

With one sword strike, he suffered severe injuries!

Fortunately, Chen Daoheng had diligently practiced the Heavenly Escape technique. Although he had never thought he would need to use it, he had still studied it for self-preservation.

Chen Daoheng’s figure vanished in an instant, along with his aura, shifting a hundred meters away from his original position.

As Chen Daoheng was about to continue his escape, he suddenly noticed a dark shadow appear in front of him. Looking up, he saw Chen Fei’s calm face.

He should have been undetectable in the void, but Chen Daoheng realized that Chen Fei’s gaze was unaffected by the Heavenly Escape.

Fear filled Chen Daoheng’s eyes. Before he could plead for mercy, Chen Fei’s sword swept towards him.

Instinctively attempting to resist, Chen Daoheng found that due to his severe injuries, his movements were slowed, and he could only watch as the Qianyuan Sword slashed across his neck.

“Splurt!”

Blood mist sprayed in the air as Chen Daoheng’s figure reappeared from the void. His aura rapidly declined.

Reaching out his right hand, Chen Daoheng’s eyes were filled with unwillingness.

He was the pride of the Fallen Heaven Pavilion, destined to reach the pinnacle of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, and even had hopes of reaching the Mountain Sea Realm. Yet, he now met his end here.

Chen Daoheng was unwilling, but all his strength was dissipating. He struggled to lift his head to look at Chen Fei, his mouth moving as if he wanted to speak, but in the end, he said nothing.

A spiritual essence floated out from Chen Daoheng’s body and fell into the Qianyuan Sword, causing it to tremble slightly.

Already on the verge of becoming a high-grade magic treasure, with the absorption of the spiritual essence, subtle changes began to occur in the sword’s body.

The Qianyuan Sword was starting to transform into a top-grade magic treasure, but this transformation was not easy and would require a considerable amount of time, with no guarantee of success.

However, with more spiritual essences or other celestial treasures integrated, the success rate of the transformation would greatly increase.

Chen Fei’s gaze moved away from the Qianyuan Sword, looking at Chen Daoheng whose aura had completely dissipated.

Although Chen Daoheng was a genius of the Fallen Heaven Pavilion, his death at Chen Fei’s hands wouldn’t be much more difficult than killing any other Mid-Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivator.

With the completion of the Profound Heavenly Sword and reaching the Fifth Transformation of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, Chen Fei already completely outclassed Chen Daoheng. Moreover, Chen Fei had even activated two forbidden techniques.

Even without using forbidden techniques, Chen Fei could have killed Chen Daoheng within ten moves.

With a wave of his right hand, Chen Fei turned Chen Daoheng’s body into powder, then collected his sword and Qiankun Bag. A surge of sword essence flashed, cutting off his own aura at the scene.

Chen Fei looked towards the distance. With Chen Daoheng’s death, Huang Yuheng would definitely suspect him.

If he didn’t want to face the condemnation of the Fallen Heaven Pavilion, Chen Fei’s only choice was clear!
