Chapter 654: Peak Combined Aperture Tempering Realm

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Awaken Yan Gongli! Guo Xuanjis voice echoed solemnly.

Guo Xuanji needed to confirm who had slain Yan Gongli. If it was another expert in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, they would need to quickly unite their forces to eradicate the threat.

If it truly was Chen Fei, then they would have to dig deep and unearth him. Having broken through the Combined Aperture Tempering realm over a decade ago and attained such terrifying power, such talent was chilling to contemplate.

If they could uncover secrets about Chen Fei, it might be a discovery no less significant than the Minghe Record.

Even if Chen Fei harbored no secrets and his prowess was solely innate, he would still be a perfect vessel. The position of the second Mountain Sea Realm expert in Fallen Heaven Pavilion would undoubtedly belong to Chen Fei.

in less than a moment, Tan Bingxiu and the other two returned to the vicinity of the altar. The ma.s.sive, eerie figure of Thousand-Eyed Ghoul slowly materialized, and one of its Evil eyes burst open, releasing Yan Gonglis soul to drift out slowly.

Tan Bingxiu infused Yan Gonglis soul with the essence of Sheng Zequan. Yan Gonglis soul trembled violently. With a swing of Tan Bingxius right hand, a breath emanated from Shen Yuanjun and entered Yan Gonglis soul.

The energies of heaven and earth surged, and Yan Gonglis soul took on a complete form.

Yan Gonglis eyes suddenly snapped open, fear still evident within them, still immersed in the moment of being slain.

It wasnt until Yan Gongli recognized the three figures before him that his expression of terror gradually relaxed.

Yan Gongli gazed at his own body, the previous sense of bondage from flesh and blood now vanished. Simultaneously, his perception of the entire world became increasingly acute.

What happened earlier? Guo Xuanji asked Yan Gongli, his voice heavy.

Chen Fei, it was him who killed me! Yan Gongli, who had been gradually calming down, suddenly surged with intense emotions.

Upon hearing Yan Gonglis words, the expressions of Guo Xuanji and his companions grew solemn.

Although they had already speculated, they couldnt be certain, because such a rapid pace of cultivation was too fast, beyond reason.

Hes reached the Eight Transformation of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm and condensed two flowers, Yan Gongli said with a glint of hatred in his eyes.

Moreover, his cultivation technique is quite profound, even surpa.s.sing our Fallen Heaven Technique by a slight margin!

The Eight Transformation of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm! Tan Bingxiu and the others exchanged glances. It wasnt just breaking through to the later stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm; it was already condensing two flowers, standing at the peak of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

That Chen Fei, according to the records, wasnt even fifty yet?

In his aura, can you determine how long ago he broke through? Si Huayuan furrowed his brow, asking.

The stability of two flowers indicates a solid foundation, but judging from his aura, it seems he recently made the breakthrough, Yan Gongli replied after a moment of thought.

The unique conditions of the mysterious realm made it easy for people from Fallen Heaven Pavilion to perceive others situations effortlessly.

At the time when Chen Fei opened the Four Forbidden Techniques, his aura was fully exposed, leaving a deep impression on Yan Gongli.

Recalling the sight of Chen Fei opening the Four Forbidden Techniques, Yan Gongli felt a mix of resentment and astonishment. Even now, he couldnt understand how the other party had achieved it.

I remember theres a cultivation technique preserved within Thousand Feathers City that allows for the rapid condensation of three flowers, Guo Xuanji pondered aloud.

The Unfettered Matrix Technique! I encountered this technique thirty years ago, Tan Bingxiu recalled the content of the technique, shaking his head.

But the difficulty of practicing this method is extremely high, no less than that of the Fallen Heaven Technique. Its virtually impossible to achieve success in a short period.

Ive also encountered this technique. Although it only requires specific spiritual materials to condense three flowers, its requirements for the Combined Aperture Tempering realm are extremely stringent. With our current Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivation, it would be difficult for our Combined Aperture to withstand it, Si Huayuan added after a moment of thought.

This young man has astonis.h.i.+ng talent, and its not impossible for him to achieve this. However, even with his exceptional potential, its absolutely impossible for him to condense three flowers and reach the peak of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm in our presence! Tan Bingxiu squinted his eyes.

Setting aside the difficulty of practicing the Unfettered Matrix Technique, in this mysterious realm, besides them, who could freely manipulate the energies of heaven and earth, others simply couldnt.

Even if, by some special means, one could manipulate the qi, the will within the qi was a huge obstacle.

This was the will close to the critical point of the Mountain Sea Realm. Below the Mountain Sea Realm, it was impossible for anyone to erase it, let alone Chen Fei, who hadnt even reached the peak of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

If Chen Fei truly attempted to condense three flowers, once the energies of heaven and earth containing willpower broke through and entered his body, it would have been equivalent to becoming a puppet of Shen Yuanjun.

In every aspect, Chen Feis path was blocked.

Even someone as formidable as Gu Danying, with the Mountain Sea Sword

Intent, ended up being sealed.

Let the mysterious realm begin to strike and kill everyone. Once most people are dead, Chen Fei will naturally have nowhere to hide, Guo Xuanji said. Originally, the plan was to delay for a few more days, allowing the special environment of the mysterious realm to exhaust all the Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts, making it possible to eliminate everyone without bloodshed.

During this time, the fear of death among these Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts would turn into powerful conviction, which would also serve as sustenance for Shen Yuanjuns vessel.

However, with Chen Fei now adding a variable, it was best to capture him as soon as possible to avoid any further unexpected occurrences.

Agreed! Tan Bingxiu nodded after a moment of consideration, not objecting.

For many years, Fallen Heaven Pavilion had been secretly refining the vessel for Shen Yuanjun without being discovered by Thousand Feathers Alliance, relying on such caution.

Otherwise, even the slightest hint of exposure would have brought down the thunderous suppression from Thousand Feathers Alliance.

As Tan Bingxiu gave the order, the Evil beings within the mysterious realm began to boil. Many dormant Evil creatures also awakened and surged towards where people were gathered.

Consuming the flesh and blood of warriors to enhance their own strength was the instinct of Evil beings. Now, with a hidden force driving them, they became even more reckless.

Inside the Bewilderment City, the sky suddenly darkened, and a cold, sinister atmosphere swept over the entire city.

Disordered murmurs echoed in everyones ears, and even ordinary people desperately hiding indoors couldnt escape.

Veins bulged, and a frenzy of killing intent flowed in their hearts, wanting to slaughter every living thing they saw.

Many bodies trembled continuously, trying to resist such impulses, but as time pa.s.sed, rationality in their eyes diminished.

The resistance of Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts was naturally much stronger than that of ordinary people, but as they looked at the faintly appearing dark figures in the distance, their hearts were filled with gloom. Their inner elemental energy was limited, and the spiritual stones and pills within their Qiankun Bags were also limited. They could withstand one wave of Evil beings, but what would they use to resist once their elemental energy was depleted?

Not only in the Bewilderment City but also in other parts of the mysterious realm, Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts were encountering the invasion of Evil beings.

Some Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts had already mastered some rules to evade the Evil beings, but now, these methods suddenly lost all effectiveness, and everything had to start from scratch.

However, they didnt have the luxury of starting over from scratch.

And just when they were about to fight the Evil beings to the death, if the people from Fallen Heaven Pavilion were to appear again, what would they do then?

Amidst the fighting in the mysterious realm, in the cave, Chen Fei stood before the Evil painting.

The Evil painting was now less than half of its original size, and the chilling screams had disappeared.

Chen Fei looked at the Evil painting in his hand, constantly refining it into the shape he desired.

He had sensed the outbreak of Mountain Sea Sword Intent a while ago, but there had been no change in the mysterious realm afterward. Obviously, Gu Danying had failed.

In the mysterious realm, failure was tantamount to death!

Chen Fei had a good sense of Gu Danying, but now, he couldnt save him. Afterward, the Evil beings in the mysterious realm became more active, and even the power of the Evil painting in front of him had increased. However, Chen Fei remained calm as he melted the Evil painting in his hand. With the pa.s.sage of time, the fragments of the Evil painting in Chen Feis hand gradually transformed, turning into a piece of plain white paper.

A faint light shone in Chen Feis eyes as he held the white paper, using it as a medium to begin manipulating the surrounding energies of heaven and earth.

The energies of heaven and earth, which had previously remained as motionless as rocks, began to ripple slightly, then slowly surged towards Chen Fei, enveloping his arm.

Tong Linyun, who was beside him, looked on in surprise. She hadnt expected that Chen Feis purpose in refining the Evil painting was ultimately to manipulate the energies of heaven and earth.

However, the amount of energies he could manipulate was too scarce. Even if it couldnt be used for battle, it was like a drop in the ocean when it came to replenis.h.i.+ng his internal elemental energy.

A small portion of the energies of heaven and earth vanished, entering a spatial grid.

The broken treasure appeared in Chen Feis hand, and he crushed a piece of medium-grade elemental stone. Pure elemental energy appeared in another spatial grid.

Seeing the treasure in Chen Feis hand, Tong Linyuns eyes widened. How did Chen Fei manage to obtain the broken treasure from that place of thin elemental energy?

There were so many peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts present at the time!

Chen Fei waved the broken ruler in his right hand, and a large amount of energies of heaven and earth surged into the spatial grid.

With the Evil painting as the medium, Chen Fei took the first step in manipulating the energy. Finally, the broken treasure came into play, greatly enhancing the intensity of this manipulation.

The will within the energies of heaven and earth remained in the first spatial grid, while large amounts of pure elemental energy surged out into another spatial grid, forcibly locked in place by Chen Fei.

Spiritual materials began to appear before Chen Fei, who sat cross-legged. Tong Linyun watched Chen Fei, unsure of what he was doing, but she still took a step back, afraid of disturbing him.

Chen Fei formed hand seals, and the Unfettered Matrix Technique began to operate. The essence within the spiritual materials in front of him was drawn out and surged into Chen Feis body.

His Combined Aperture Tempering realm began to tremble, and a ring appeared above him.

Suddenly, his Combined Aperture Tempering realm felt a terrifying pressure. Compared to the previous two times, forcibly condensing the third flower placed peak pressure on his Combined Aperture Tempering realm. This pressure was felt even by Chen Feis Combined Aperture, and he frowned. Opening his Heavenly Eye, he enveloped his Combined Aperture.

If even Chen Feis Combined Aperture felt such extreme pressure, could anyone else truly forcibly condense the third flower using the Unfettered Matrix Technique?

Perhaps even the original creator of this method, at most, only considered forcibly condensing the second flower, saving some time, and the third flower could be cultivated in the usual manner.

This kind of pressure was something even so-called geniuses couldnt bear!

The ring gradually became clearer, and the pressure grew stronger.

Not only did the ring exert pressure, but the first and second flowers that Chen Fei had previously condensed also began to float up slowly, adding immense pressure to his Combined Aperture.

With a calm mind, Chen Fei aimed to reach the Ninth Transformation of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, which required all three flowers to be at their peak simultaneously.

The Dragon Elephant Induction Point appeared below his Combined Aperture, giving it strength and significantly reducing the pressure it endured.

Tong Linyun stood at a distance, sensing the changes in Chen Feis aura. Her eyes widened slowly. This phenomenon of cultivation, with all three flowers at their peak?

Hum!

The spiritual materials in front of Chen Fei suddenly shattered. His body trembled slightly, and a ripple spread out from him, centered on him and spreading outwards.

Within his body, above his Combined Aperture Tempering realm, the third ring finally formed completely, directly above the other two rings.

The three rings began to descend slowly, and the elemental energy around Chen Feis Combined Aperture Tempering realm boiled, radiating with brilliance as if thundering.

The circulation of energy and blood resounded like surging rivers. Within his sea of consciousness, chaos reigned, and phenomena occurred frequently. Despite all this, Chen Fei remained seated calmly, his mind free from any distractions.

Boom!

A deafening roar erupted in his soul as the three flowers landed on his Combined Aperture. The Combined Aperture lowered slightly, receiving all the power.

Swoos.h.!.+

A wave of fluctuations swept out, and the energies of heaven and earth that Chen Fei had locked around him began to surge wildly into his body.

With the third flower reaching its peak, the Combined Aperture Tempering realm had reached its peak.. It was done!
