Hundred Year Peak

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chen Feis gaze s.h.i.+fted, sensing the unique fluctuations at the location of the tree demons roots.

This was a Fourth-Tier superior secret realm. The tree demon thrived on its nutrients, relying on this secret realm for support. However, the tree demons powerful nurturing abilities also made the environment within the secret realm even more conducive to growth.

There were also Fourth-Tier secret realms near Thousand Geese City; otherwise, Thousand Geese City wouldnt have been established there and stood for thousands of years.

Although it was only a Fourth-Tier lower-grade secret realm, it was entirely sufficient for Thousand Geese City. If the secret realm had been of a higher tier, Thousand Geese Citys strength probably wouldnt have been enough to defend it.

Whether in the Boundless Sea or in the former Immortal Cloud City, matters among martial artists were straightforward: might made right.

If you possessed something valuable, it was your good fortune. But if the value of that thing exceeded what you could defend, and others became aware of it, the consequences were hard to predict.

Now, a portion of the secret realm in Thousand Geese City was also enjoyed by the Primordial Sword Mastery, almost as if transferring the share of the sect where Wu Renxu and the others were originally from to the Primordial Sword Mastery.

Regarding this matter, some people within Thousand Geese City actually harbored some resentment.

Your Primordial Sword Mastery was indeed powerful, but occupying nearly half of a Fourth-Tier secret realm, wasnt that a bit excessive?

However, with the arrival of the Monster King Nie Li in Thousand Geese City, the other residents of Thousand Geese City had a very direct experience of the kind of power the Primordial Sword Mastery possessed.

Suddenly, everyone in Thousand Geese City no longer felt that the Primordial Sword Masterys share of the secret realm was unreasonable.

In fact, many people thought, with the strength of the Primordial Sword Mastery, wasnt it just right for them to occupy half of a Fourth-Tier secret realm?

Now, Baka was within this Fourth-Tier secret realm, supported by its resources, and Bakas strength was rapidly increasing.

Recently, Chen Fei discovered that Bakas strength had reached the brink of the Second-Tier. Given the right opportunity, it might even break through to the realm of a third-tier monster.

Even at the third tier, this secret realm could still provide significant support, allowing Bakas strength to continue growing rapidly.

Compared to humans, monsters had longer lifespans, and their strength should increase slowly.

This was a rule of this world; otherwise, if monsters had both long lifespans and rapid strength growth, there would hardly be any conflicts between humans and monsters. Humans would have long been domesticated by monsters.

Chi!

A sharp bird cry echoed, and Chen Fei looked up to see a slender bird-beast descending from the sky, landing on the canopy.

A Fourth-Tier Monster King, even stronger than Nie Li, reaching the mid-stage of the fourth tier.

The surrounding avian beasts all bowed as this Monster King descended, and the once resounding birdcalls quieted down considerably.

After a moment, the sounds from the canopy gradually increased again.

Human, you seem unfamiliar.

A voice suddenly exploded in Chen Feis ear, sharp enough to pierce the soul. With Xuanyuan Sword faintly glowing, this voice didnt cause the slightest ripple in Chen Feis soul.

Ive heard of the prosperity of Feihuang City and came to see for myself, Chen Fei looked up at the Monster King, smiling.

Youre quite young, and your strength isnt bad.

The Monster Kings eyes stared at Chen Fei, a humanoid smile appearing on its face. If you encounter any trouble in Feihuang City, feel free to let me know. If its something I can resolve, Ill help you.

Thankyou! Chen Feis expression s.h.i.+fted slightly, nodding in grat.i.tude.

Did this Monster King possess a talent similar to keen observation, able to discern the active life force emanating from Chen Feis body, intending to form a good relations.h.i.+p?

After a moment, Chen Fei left the area under the canopy and began to stroll around Feihuang City.

The streets were bustling with activity.

Despite Feihuang Citys already vast size, there were still many people coming and going, with visitors arriving from other places every day, hoping to find their own opportunities in Feihuang City.

Chen Fei visited several shops and took out a spiritual treasure to sell.

Currently, Chen Fei had three surplus spiritual treasures, all acquired from the trio of Ao Bozhong.

Chen Fei made some slight modifications to the appearance of the spiritual treasures and managed to conceal their aura to some extent. To make further alterations would require prolonged use of his own elemental power and soul to refine them.

Naturally, Chen Fei didnt have the time or energy to do this.

Behind Ao Bozhong were their own sects, but they were the strongest within their sects, so the likelihood of retaliation was low.

While there were quite a few Mountain Sea Realm experts on the Central Continent, most of the sects where they resided were quite ordinary.

So even if Chen Fei directly sold the spiritual treasures of the three individuals, it wouldnt be a big issue. However, due to Chen Feis own personality, he preferred to be a bit more discreet.

The first item he sold was Miao Wanhuas cane.

There werent many people who used a cane as a weapon, but it was still a spiritual treasure, and it retained its spiritual essence. Chen Fei lowered the price slightly, and the spiritual treasure was smoothly sold.

Three thousand five hundred high-grade elemental stones, equivalent to thirty-five thousand middle-grade elemental stones, was a quant.i.ty of elemental stones that a Combined Aperture Tempering realm expert couldnt acc.u.mulate in a lifetime.

I heard that the city is collecting Black Divines subordinates?

With the elemental stones delivered, Chen Fei looked at the shopkeeper and casually asked.

Yes, theres a specific reward for it. If the guest is interested, you can inquire at the Shanggong Hall. There are specialists there to answer your questions. The aura of the Mountain Sea Realm that Chen Fei displayed made the shopkeeper not dare to neglect him. Now, completing a profitable transaction further brought a smile to the shopkeepers face.

Have people caught Black Divines subordinates before? Chen Fei asked with a smile.

Yes, just last month, someone exchanged two of Black Divines subordinates for a reward. The shopkeepers eyes gleamed with envy as he spoke.

The rewards offered by Feihuang City were indeed substantial, with enormous appeal even to Mountain Sea Realm experts, let alone someone like him at the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

However, the subordinates of the Black Divine were all at least at the Fourth- Tier now.

It was rumored that there were subordinates below the fourth tier back in the day, but they were all wiped out. Those who managed to survive and escape were now all at the Fourth-Tier level.

Chen Fei nodded, chatted a bit more with the shopkeeper, and then left the shop.

Chen Fei then visited the remaining major shops in Feihuang City. Aside from purchasing some cultivation pills, he inquired more about the rewards offered by Feihuang City.

Of course, Chen Fei also sought to purchase some martial arts manuals from the Mountain Sea Realm.

Many shops sold martial arts manuals from the Mountain Sea Realm, and the prices were not exorbitant, affordable for most Mountain Sea Realm experts.

However, after perusing the outlines of the manuals, Chen Fei didnt purchase any of them.

The martial arts manuals sold in these shops were quite ordinary in quality, many of them not even comparable to the ones Chen Fei had obtained previously.

At best, they were probably on par with the first manual he acquired, the Heavenly Heart Scripture.

For someone like Chen Fei now, these manuals were of no use at all.

As for the Eye Technique, it belonged to the category of secret techniques, and only one shop had it.

However, the price was extremely high. After reading through the introduction of the technique, Chen Fei ultimately didnt make a purchase.

While it could supplement some aspects of his Heavenly Eye, it was only a very small part, making the cost-effectiveness too low.

Chen Fei still had a considerable amount of elemental stones on him now, but his daily consumption was also significant.

With the proficiency of the Profound Demon Sword constantly increasing, the number of pills Chen Fei could consume daily would rise, and the amount of elemental stones consumed would be quite astonis.h.i.+ng.

According to Chen Feis estimation, as long as the Profound Demon Sword reached the level of Great Completion, and the innate talent Sword Mastery also reached Great Completion, and the supply of pills remained uninterrupted, Chen Fei would be able to condense the third divine palace within ten years, or even shorter.

With a lifespan of seven hundred years in the Mountain Sea Realm, Chen Fei could condense the remaining seven divine palaces within a hundred years, reaching the pinnacle of the Mountain Sea Realm.

Although Chen Fei had always felt that the Profound Demon Sword was average, it was much weaker compared to the top-notch techniques of those elite sects.

In an ordinary Mountain Sea Realm, the Profound Demon Sword was already considered an excellent technique, the topmost method that the vast majority of Mountain Sea Realm cultivators could access.

As for bottlenecks, with the innate talent Sword Mastery and the Profound Demon Sword at Great Completion, Chen Feis cultivation would only encounter bottlenecks when breaking through from the mid-stage to the late stage of the Mountain Sea Realm, and then from the late stage to the pinnacle.

Especially when breaking through from the late stage to the pinnacle of the Mountain Sea Realm, it would be a major hurdle.

However, by that time, Chen Fei should have obtained new techniques and integrated them into the Profound Demon Sword.

Not to mention, the inheritance of the Dream Shadow Master in the Strange Heart Realm was still there. In the late stage of the Mountain Sea Realm, Chen Fei would be capable of venturing into the Strange Heart Realm to obtain the Dream Shadow Stone.

As for cultivation at other times, it would be smooth sailing.

After leaving the shop in the south of the city, Chen Fei didn t rush to the Shanggong Hall. Instead, he found an inn to stay in.

Living was not easy, and the prices in Feihuang City were very high. Without property in Feihuang City, it would be difficult for someone at the Body Tempering realm to stay for long.

Dozens of miles away from the inn, in a luxurious courtyard, cups were raised and exchanged.

If there were outsiders present, they would probably be surprised to see the people in the courtyard.

There were exactly four individuals at the early stage of the Mountain Sea Realm, with three sitting below and one seated at the top.

The person at the top remained solemn, their eyes flickering with golden light from time to time. Though they were all at the same stage, the other three individuals showed great respect towards this person.

Ha ha ha, Senior Brother Saint, guess who I saw in Feihuang City. Suddenly, laughter echoed from outside the courtyard, followed by a figure appearing in the hall, another Mountain Sea Realm cultivator.

Who is it?

Saint Xizhou sat on the side, looking somewhat puzzled at the newcomer.

Its definitely someone Senior Brother Saint has been thinking about day and night, Zeng Huaizheng laughed even louder.

Oh? Senior Brother Saint, do you already have someone you admire? Chi Shengsheng turned to look at Saint Xizhou, and the other three in the hall also looked at him with curiosity.

What nonsense are you talking about? I dont have anyone Ive been thinking about day and night! Saint Xizhous expression darkened.

Junior Brother Zeng, Senior Brother Saint cultivates the Hearts Desire Technique. You shouldnt joke like this. Chi Shengsheng reprimanded Zeng Huaizheng.

Youre right, Senior Brother. I apologize for my mistake, Zeng Huaizheng said, putting away his smile.

He first nodded to Chi Shengsheng, then turned to Saint Xizhou.

Zeng Huaizheng waved his hand, and a surge of elemental power formed a human-shaped figure.

Zeng Huaizheng displayed an exquisite control over elemental power, and even though it was just elemental power, the human-shaped figure was incredibly lifelike, even mimicking some semblance of breath.

Saint Xizhou looked at the figure, their already unpleasant expression turning even darker.
