Chapter 406: 200 Sword Return Eyes

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The sight of this sword technique truly amazed Chen Fei. He had no idea who had created this technique, nor did he understand the concepts and training methods involved, all of which were quite different from many other mental techniques.

Yes, the Sword Return Eye was indeed a mental technique. Whether it was in driving or cultivation, it involved the transformation of mental power, much like the G.o.dslayer Sword and the Slaughter Spirit Technique.

However, while the G.o.dslayer Sword and the Slaughter Spirit Technique were focused on killing enemies, the Sword Return Eye leaned more towards being a form of a.s.sistance.

Of course, what the Sword Return Eye ultimately mentioned, being able to extract traces from the past, was not something that could be done at any time; there were limitations to it.

Normally, if one truly reached the pinnacle of Sword Return Eye cultivation, the traces of ones presence within an hour could be captured at will, without any pressure.

But if, like Chen Fei, one had special techniques, such as the Slaughter Spirit Technique, which eliminated ones own presence, then capturing those traces would become more challenging and require stronger mental power to support it.

And if it went beyond an hour, the difficulty of capturing the traces continued to rise. However, if ones mental power was strong enough, it could be extended by continually expending mental power.

In theory, as long as ones mental power could sustain it, the timeline could even be extended indefinitely. As long as one can sustain it, there wont be any problems.

Discovered new technique, spend forty pieces of elemental stones to simplify the Sword Return Eye?

Simplify the Sword Return Eye Simplification successful Sword Return Eye > Picture Visualization Technique!

The cost of simplification was not small, but Chen Fei didnt hesitate and chose to confirm. Nowadays, the techniques that caught Chen Feis eye were few and far between, especially those related to mental power, which were exceedingly rare.

Moreover, forty elemental stones might have been a significant expense for Chen Fei in the past. However, at this moment, he already had six low-grade spirit swords and two medium-grade spirit swords in his possession.

Although these spirit swords had suffered some damage due to battles with Chen Fei, each low-grade spirit sword could still be sold for around thirty to forty elemental stones, or even more.

Medium-grade spirit swords could fetch two to three hundred elemental stones each. Roughly adding them up, it amounted to over eight hundred elemental stones. Not to mention the invaluable Primordial Sealing Mirror, which was hard to estimate in terms of value.

So, even though Chen Fei hadnt found many elemental stones in the Sword Returning Towers secret treasury, the acquisition of these spirit swords had already paid off.

Therefore, the cost of simplifying the Sword Return Eye technique was something that didnt make Chen Fei feel regretful. After all, the expenses for this kind of simplification were all aimed at making Chen Feis own foundation stronger.

The result of simplifying the Sword Return Eye was also the type that Chen Fei was most delighted to see. With his current level of mental division, drawing over a hundred visualization diagrams at once was a breeze.

Chen Fei lowered his head and looked at the inheritance stone in his hand.

After a moment of contemplation, he exerted a slight force with his right hand, instantly shattering the inheritance stone. Not only this one, but the other two inheritance stones were also crushed into powder by Chen Fei.

These three inheritance stones had a considerable volume, taking up too much s.p.a.ce in his storage grid. Since they were already recorded on the panel, whether these inheritance stones were present or not made no difference to Chen Fei.

Afterward, when Chen Fei returned to the Primordial Sword Sect, he planned to offer the three techniques, and it would only require a few jade scrolls to record them.

However, Chen Fei hadnt decided to return to the sect just yet. He still had some spiritual weapons in his possession that he hadnt sold, and he needed to find a place to dispose of these items.

Black City District was an option. Although he had encountered the Rain Pavilion there last time, that incident hadnt caused Chen Fei any trouble. In fact, he had even gained some cultivation resources from it.

If it werent for the gains from Black City District, Chen Feis current level of acupoint cultivation wouldnt have reached eighty-two acupoints.

However, Chen Fei didnt plan to go to Black City District, not because he was worried about retaliation from the Rain Pavilion or the potential suppression by the Black City Districts owner.

With Chen Feis current level of cultivation, if they had such intentions, it would be a matter of who would suppress whom in the end.

Even if the owner of Black City District used the power of the market formation, Chen Fei would need to truly fight before knowing the final outcome.

In any case, there was no real danger to Chen Fei, and if he wanted to leave, ordinary late-stage acupoint cultivators wouldnt be able to stop him.

The reason Chen Fei didnt plan to go to Black City District was simply because it couldnt offer him a satisfactory price.

The low-grade and medium-grade spirit swords were manageable; Chen Fei had already sold some last time. While selling them again in a short period might lead to a slight price decrease, it wasnt a significant issue.

The main reason was the Primordial Sealing Mirror that Chen Fei currently had in his possession, which was a top-grade spiritual weapon.

In all the years of Black City Districts existence, there had never been any official records of transactions involving top-grade spiritual weapons. Whether there were any private transactions was completely unknown.

The owner of Black City District was only in the late-stage acupoint cultivation realm himself, and even if others had top-grade spiritual weapons, they wouldnt conduct such transactions in Black City District due to its limited scope.

Chen Fei planned to go to the Imperial City, the heart of the dynasty and the most prosperous place. There, he could find suitable buyers for the Primordial Sealing Mirror and receive an appropriate price for it.

Most people who obtained top-grade spiritual weapons rarely sold them because they were incredibly rare. However, Chen Fei needed substantial cultivation resources to elevate his own cultivation.

The Primordial Sealing Mirror was indeed a formidable tool, capable of immobilizing individuals, making it an excellent choice for both combat and capturing enemies. However, in terms of enhancing Chen Feis combat capabilities, it didnt offer as much as he needed.

In terms of combat, Chen Fei could now unleash power that would leave most late-stage acupoint cultivators trembling in fear.

As for capturing enemies, the Zhongyuan Sword Formation could serve that purpose, though Chen Fei seldom used it anymore because, when facing opponents, he didnt need to immobilize them; he could simply go in for the kill.

For Chen Fei, capturing opponents seemed to have become somewhat redundant.

When a persons strength reached a certain level, many techniques began to evolve towards simplicity. It didnt mean these techniques became useless; instead, they started to merge and become more practical.

Of course, if Chen Fei had enough elemental stones, he would keep the Primordial Sealing Mirror. But the problem now was that he didnt have enough elemental stones!

Furthermore, the Qianyuan Sword was currently in a state of transformation, and Chen Fei was about to possess his own top-grade spiritual sword. For Chen Fei, the Primordial Sealing Mirror could only be sold as it no longer had a more significant role to play.

Heading to the Imperial City not only provided the easiest access to potential buyers, but Chen Fei also had some curiosity about the city itself.

Back when he was weaker, Chen Fei had lacked the strength to cross thousands of miles to another place. But now, aside from a few powerful individuals, Chen Feis own strength was sufficient for self-preservation.

To read ten thousand books is to travel ten thousand miles.

While Chen Fei hadnt read ten thousand books, he had learned nearly a hundred different techniques. With his current level of cultivation, he wanted to use his own feet to explore this dynasty heading towards the sunset.

On the meditation cus.h.i.+on, Chen Fei swallowed a pill and focused his efforts on refining its medicinal power.

As his cultivation reached the advance Aperture Tempering realm, the seventy-two acupoints in his body had merged into one whole, and the speed at which Chen Fei refined pills became increasingly rapid.

Unlike when he was about to break through to the advance Aperture Tempering realm, back then, Chen Fei would slowly comprehend and sense the changes as he opened each acupoint.

At that time, he was confident about breaking through to the advance Aperture Tempering realm but maintained caution since he hadnt truly broken through yet. He adopted a strategic perspective, but when it came to tactics, he remained cautious.

However, now that Chen Fei was still quite far from reaching the peak of the acupoint realm, he had plenty of time to slowly comprehend the changes in himself.

Therefore, when taking pills nowadays, Chen Fei hardly took any breaks. He would refine one pill and immediately swallow the next.

Most of the dozen or so pills Chen Fei obtained from the Sword Returning Tower were meant to enhance elemental power. For others, it would likely take quite a long time to refine these pills.

One had to consider whether their body could withstand the medicinal power. The refinement of medicinal power was a significant burden on both the meridians and acupoints.

Another consideration was whether their comprehension of techniques and mental power could keep up with the process.

However, for Chen Fei, none of these were issues, so he consumed the pills somewhat recklessly.

A day pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye. During that time, Chen Fei stopped taking the pills and spent several hours practicing techniques, especially the Sword Return Eye.

His mental power created nearly two hundred strands while simultaneously drawing visualization diagrams.

The comprehension of nearly two hundred versions of the Sword Return Eye instantly filled Chen Feis sea of consciousness.

This feeling was overwhelming even for Chen Fei, who was accustomed to the insights provided by the panel. The amount of comprehension given in an instant was simply too much, second only to the feeling he had experienced during the last spiritual epiphany.

However, during a spiritual epiphany, Chen Feis mental sea of consciousness was in an extremely active state, making it very easy to absorb those insights. Now, Chen Feis mental state was calm, and the sudden influx of nearly two hundred insights left him feeling a bit overwhelmed. Fortunately, Chen Feis mental power was exceptional, and he quickly adapted to this state.

Once he adapted, and with the continuous influx of these two hundred insights into his sea of consciousness, Chen Fei found himself completely absorbed in them.

Learning can indeed bring happiness, especially the sense of achievement that comes with mastering something new, which can be addictive.

For ordinary people, the root cause of their struggle with learning lies in the fact that they often cannot grasp complex content or, if they manage to learn it, they quickly forget it.

Chen Fei didnt have this concern. Once he learned something, he truly learned it, and the feeling of being surrounded by insights was irresistible.

Throughout an entire night, Chen Fei was immersed in the practice of the Sword Return Eye, even forgetting to take the pills.

The results of a whole nights practice were remarkable. Chen Fei had already pushed his mastery of the technique to a high level, and he had even made significant progress towards mastery. According to his estimate, in less than ten days, he would be able to reach the pinnacle of the Sword Return Eye, achieving a state of perfection.

Its worth noting that within the entire Sword Returning Tower, only Xing Xinzhao, a person who had reached the peak of the Sword Return Eye, had achieved such mastery. Most others in the tower were still hovering at the beginner level..
