Chapter 742 - Higher Than the Heavens

Higher Than the Heavens

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

In terms of reputation, the Sacred Land Purple Sky Sect was definitely much stronger than the Samsara Sword Sect.

The Sacred Land Purple Sky Sect also dissipated tens of thousands of years ago, much earlier than the Samsara Sword Sect.

The grand achievements of the Sacred Lands were countless. Just the name of the Sacred Land was enough to explain everything.

However, the dissolution of the Purple Sky Sect was somewhat different from other Sacred Land sites. The Purple Sky Sect was wiped out overnight at its peak.

No one knew what happened that night, or what kind of power could erase a sect with a Sun Moon Realm powerhouse in such a short time.

Those from that era didnt know, and now, thousands of years later, no one naturally knew either.

Perhaps the ancient Sacred Land sites today would know what happened back then.

Compared to the Samsara Reincarnation Sword, the Purple Sky Thunder Technique was even more broken, unable to even reach twenty percent of its completeness.

At least the Samsara Reincarnation Sword could be cultivated to the third Divine Palace, while the Purple Sky Thunder Technique, cultivated to the second Divine Palace, had already reached its limit.

So, which technique did you want? Qu Shangzheng looked at Chen Fei and smiled.

Within the Feihuang Sect, there were actually quite a few incomplete techniques, and the completeness of these two techniques was still acceptable. It could be said that Qu Shangzheng did not deceive Chen Fei in this matter.

Or in Qu Shangzhengs eyes, the fact that Chen Fei himself requested incomplete techniques was already too demanding.

Chen Fei pondered. The Samsara Reincarnation Sword was more complete, while the Purple Sky Thunder Technique was of a higher level. The key point was that in the latter part of the Purple Sky Thunder Technique, there were some higher-level martial arts concepts.

These martial arts concepts couldnt be used in actual cultivation, but they could provide martial artists with some food for thought.

The Feihuang Sect sometimes valued these incomplete techniques precisely for these concepts, to see if they could bring about some changes in their own techniques.

Purple Sky Thunder Technique! Chen Fei looked up at Qu Shangzheng.

Good!

Qu Shangzheng tapped a jade ornament at his waist. A quarter of an hour later, a steward of the Feihuang Sect brought a jade slip to the Shanggong Hall and handed it to Qu Shangzheng.

Qu Shangzheng waved his right hand, removed the seal on the jade slip, confirmed that the contents were correct, and then handed it to Chen Fei.

Chen Fei took it and probed into the jade slip with his consciousness.

Half an hour later, Chen Fei withdrew his consciousness from the jade slip.

Discovered technique: Purple Sky Thunder Technique (Incomplete)!

A prompt appeared on the panel, and a hint of a smile crept onto Chen Feis face.

How is it? Qu Shangzheng stood by for half an hour without showing impatience.

Thank you! Chen Fei bowed.

Obtaining techniques of this level, even if they were incomplete, was extremely difficult in the marketplace.

Chen Fei would have to try his luck in the cities of those Sacred Land lands, where he might find something worthwhile.

Certainly, he wouldnt be able to obtain complete top-notch inheritances; he could only resort to such alternative methods.

As long as youre satisfied. If there are any Black Divine subordinates next time, feel free to come and exchange, Qu Shangzheng nodded.

Definitely!

Chen Fei looked at Qu Shangzheng. In fact, he wanted to inquire about information regarding the Black Divine, but such confidential matters were unlikely to be freely discussed by the Feihuang Sect.

The rumors circulating outside only portrayed the Black Divine as an extremely powerful monster, and any other information was scarce.

Chen Fei had been to the Black Divine Domain and knew that the Black Divine couldnt simply be described as a powerful monster.

However, it was evident that the Feihuang Sect was unwilling to disclose more information. Moreover, the effort they put into collecting Black Divine subordinates surely served some undisclosed purpose.

The heavenly materials and earthly treasures used for rewards were not low in value; otherwise, Wu Renxu and the others wouldnt have been so crazy about them.

After exchanging pleasantries for a moment, Chen Fei took his leave.

Qu Shangzheng watched Chen Feis departing figure, shaking his head slightly, then disappeared into the Shanggong Hall.

Qu Shangzheng didnt bother to investigate why Chen Fei chose incomplete techniques.

Every powerful martial artist believed themselves to be unique. Perhaps this young martial artist wanted to try whether he could complete the missing parts of the technique on his own.

Dreams may be lofty, but this matter had nothing to do with Qu Shangzheng anymore.

Chen Fei returned straight to the inn, activated all the formations inside the room, and eagerly sat down cross-legged.

Merge!

Discovered technique: Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword!

The proficiency of the Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword slipped again. Originally, the proficiency of the Profound Demon Sword was nearing perfection, but now it had regressed to the level of initial mastery.

Judging solely from the proficiency, after fusing with the Purple Sky Thunder Technique, the new technique had at least improved by one level compared to before.

If the Profound Demon Sword was considered among the better techniques of the ordinary Mountain Sea Realm techniques before, then the current Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword should not be inferior to the branch techniques of those top sects.

It certainly couldnt match the level of the main sect techniques, but undoubtedly, it had taken a new step forward.

Simplify!

Simplifying the Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword Simplification successful Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword -> Profound Demon Sword!

Once again, there was an expenditure of elemental stones, but compared to the advancement in the level of the technique, this simplification cost was negligible.

Chen Fei activated the Profound Demon Sword, and insights from the Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword appeared in his mind. The Sword Mastery talent glimmered faintly, and insights began to emerge incessantly.

Chen Fei continued to operate the Suppressing Dragon Elephant and the Bloodline Origin Shadow Technique, gathering insights from all three techniques. He was completely immersed in his cultivation.

Several miles away, Zeng Huaizheng sat in a tavern, looking in the direction of the inn as he sipped his drink.

Tracking a Mountain Sea Realm cultivator was naturally no easy task. Even though Zeng Huaizheng was confident in himself, he wouldnt monitor too closely, as it could easily alert the vigilance of a Mountain Sea Realm soul.

So he even went to the Shanggong Hall. Seems like he got something good.

Zeng Huaizhengs face bore a smile. If luck was on their side, this item would belong to their group later on.

Among them, he was the one who worked the hardest and achieved the most. If there was any good stuff, it would probably end up in his hands in the end.

With that thought, Zeng poured himself another drink and continued sipping.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, two months had pa.s.sed. Chen Fei was still in Feihuang City, and he hadnt even left the inn.

Originally, Chen Feis plan was to return to Thousand Geese City directly after obtaining what he needed in Feihuang City.

However, with the improvement of the Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword, Chen Fei found himself involuntarily immersed in it, hesitating to leave.

The enhancement provided by the innate Sword Mastery to all sword techniques gave Chen Fei a sense of exhilaration in his practice.

In just two months of cultivation, the proficiency of the Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword had skyrocketed from the initial mastery stage to the late mastery stage, an astonis.h.i.+ng speed.

Of course, this was also related to Chen Feis recent continuous improvement in the innate Sword Mastery.

Being able to enhance his talent simply by wielding his sword made cultivation extremely easy for Chen Fei.

The Suppressing Dragon Elephant still had a considerable distance to reach the Great Completion level, but the Bloodline Origin Shadow Technique was only a short distance away from reaching it.

In the end, Chen Fei decided to directly cultivate the Bloodline Origin Shadow Technique to the Great Completion level before returning to Thousand Geese City.

By then, on the way back, if the timing was right, perhaps he could directly condense a clone of the Mountain Sea Realm.

Chen Fei immersed himself in the rapid progress of his techniques, while Zeng Huaizheng, several miles away, seemed somewhat somber in recent times.

Zeng Huaizheng had initially thought that Chen Fei would leave Feihuang City in a short time, but it had already been two months.

It seemed as if Chen Fei regarded that inn as his own territory and was reluctant to leave.

While it was understandable to purchase various heavenly materials and earthly treasures within Feihuang City, what kind of state was it to cultivate in seclusion within an inn?

It was as if he intended to settle in Feihuang City for the long term, but if he truly intended to do so, wouldnt he buy a courtyard or something similar?

The key point was that Zeng Huaizheng now suspected that Chen Fei wouldnt leave in the short term and instead planned to continue cultivating in the inn.

Not only was Zeng Huaizheng impatient, but the other four from the Heavenly Illusion Valley were also annoyed by Chen Feis actions.

They had come to Feihuang City for a specific purpose, which had already been accomplished.

In normal circ.u.mstances, they would have already gone elsewhere to continue their training.

But now, because Chen Fei refused to leave the city, they were forced to wait in Feihuang City, unable to go anywhere.

Several tens of miles away from the inn, in the courtyard of the Heavenly Illusion Valley.

How is it? Any signs of him leaving? Saint Xizhou quickly asked when he saw Zeng Huaizheng return.

Not a step out of the city! Zeng Huaizheng said firmly.

When the time comes to kill him, well make sure to give him a thorough beating! Qi Yunhong gritted his teeth.

Perhaps we should inform the Feihuang Sect, saying that were going to capture an enemy who might be operating within the city, suggested Cheng Haixiong.

Two months might not seem long, but to them, killing Chen Fei was just a small matter. To be stuck here for such a trivial reason, and not knowing when it would end, made them feel frustrated.

This kid sold a Black Divine subordinate to the Feihuang Sect, so theres some connection between them. If he leaves the city, the Feihuang Sect wont interfere. But within the city, they wont allow us to act like this, Zeng Huaizheng explained, shaking his head.

In Feihuang City, they werent allowed to engage in combat, let alone such open aggression between Mountain Sea Realm cultivators, which would be like slapping the Feihuang Sect in the face.

We need to find a way to lure him out of Feihuang City! Qi Yunhong suggested.

Either way, its just a matter of a few months. Theres no need to be so anxious, Chi Shengsheng said. Compared to the other four, Chi Shengsheng was the calmest.

But

Zeng Huaizheng was about to speak when he suddenly turned his head towards the east. Chi Shengsheng noticed it slightly earlier than Zeng Huaizheng did. As the two turned their heads, the others looked over belatedly.

The formations of Feihuang City suddenly rose, causing everyone in the city to pause their activities and look up at the sky in confusion.

The next moment, several figures rose from the central area of Feihuang City and arrived outside the formations, gazing ahead.

Several dozen miles away from Feihuang City, two streaks of light flew towards the city. Behind the two streaks of light, there were dozens of dark shadows following closely, their imposing killing intent palpable even from several miles away.

Its Qiu Zeshengfrom the Saint Yan Sect, along with Di Lingjian, Xu Jinglun! Someone within Feihuang Sect recognized the ident.i.ties of the two figures.

Luan Qinghui, the Sect Master of Feihuang Sect, glanced past Qiu Zesheng and the others towards the dark shadows.

With fish-like bodies, snake-like heads, and six legs, their eyes were narrow like horse ears. These monsters were drooling, crazily chasing after Qiu Zesheng and his companion, even though they were several miles away.

Two dignified late-stage Mountain Sea Realm cultivators, currently weakened and heavily injured, would likely be on the brink of death if this were not Feihuang Sect.
