Chapter 780: Are You Using This To Test Me?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chen Fei stood up, a barrier of elemental force appearing outside his body. These lingering souls collided with the barrier, sliding off to both sides.

A glow emanated from Chen Feis brow, revealing that these lingering souls had only intensified in malevolence, seemingly without further alteration.

Accompanied by the lingering souls, a black mist surged into the safety zone, where the purifying formation emitted a faint glow.

Faint murmurs echoed in his ears, but such a situation was nothing to Chen Fei, who had experienced many such scenarios within the Strange Heart Domain.

Chen Fei!

A deep shout suddenly came from behind and to the side. Chen Fei paused slightly, turning to look in that direction.

A figure approached from afar, wearing an expression of anxiety.

Hurry, your act of killing a disciple from the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect has been exposed. Now, members of the sect are coming to arrest you!

The figure gradually became clearer in Chen Feis eyesit was his master, Feng Xiupu!

The Immortal Cloud Sword Sect?

A memory suddenly flashed in Chen Feis mind. Right, he had killed a disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, Shen Dingyan. The sect had been covering for him all this time, which was why he hadnt been in trouble until now.

Has the matter of killing Shen Dingyan been discovered?

I should have covered all my tracks. It shouldnt have been discovered!

Chen Feis gaze flickered as he glanced around. Was this his masters courtyard? He looked into the distance and could vaguely see the scripture pavilion within the sect.

Dont look anymore, hurry, lets go. Leave here first. Well come back when we have the chance!

Feng Xiupu rushed forward anxiously, grabbing Chen Feis shoulder, intending to pull him away from the scene.

Chen Fei furrowed his brow, a strange feeling rising in his heart. The Immortal Cloud Sword Sectsuch a distant memory. And wasnt the sect no longer called by that name?

Just as this thought crossed Chen Feis mind, a large group of people suddenly appeared in the distance, dozens of them looming faintly.

Where is Chen Fei? Surrender now, or do you want me to break through the gates of your Primordial Sword Sect!

A thunderous shout echoed, terrifying aura spreading all around. A tremendous force gripped Chen Feis heart tightly, as if at any moment, his organs would be crushed by this force.

Chen Fei, run!

Feng Xiupu shouted at Chen Fei, then turned to rush toward the people from the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect.

As Chen Fei watched the scene unfold, a mixture of worry and fear surged up, occupying all his thoughts. His eyes involuntarily turned crimson.

Then, Chen Fei exploded with all his might, charging straight toward the people from the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect.

He aimed to slaughter every member of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, even to storm their sects gates!

The night falls, and yet, theres still the phenomenon of soul impact!

A voice suddenly resounded. Chen Feis mouth didnt move, but the voice unmistakably belonged to him.

As the voice fell, a golden light appeared in the air. Below, whether it was Feng Xiupu, the members of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, or even Chen Fei, who was currently wielding the Qianyuan Sword furiously, all froze in place.

Within the golden light, another Chen Fei appeared, calmly observing below.

With a casual wave of his hand, the scene below shattered instantly. When Chen Fei opened his eyes again, he was still atop the city wall, surrounded by black mist and lingering souls. There was no sign of Feng Xiupu or the members of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect.

As for the Chen Fei whose eyes had turned crimson just now, he wasnt the real Chen Fei but rather a projection created by the soul impact.

This was a more sophisticated form of attack than directly dragging someone into an illusion.

In the Mountain Sea Realm, both the mind and soul had various methods of protection.

Almost all techniques in the Mountain Sea Realm had similar means of defense, varying only in their level of proficiency.

Moreover, the souls in the Mountain Sea Realm instinctively resisted any abnormal phenomena. It was extremely difficult to drag someone into an illusion without their awareness.

The subtle manipulation, like the one just now, creating a projection of a person and gradually pulling you in, was akin to boiling a frog in warm water. Unbeknownst to you, your soul became ensnared in the illusion, and then it was at the mercy of the illusion.

Chen Fei, protected by the barriers of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant and the Xuanyuan Sword, sensed the Evil and dispelled it almost immediately.

Despite many events occurring in the illusion just now, in real time, it was only a moment.

As Chen Fei turned to look at Tang Shouchang beside him, about to speak to alert him, his expression suddenly froze.

A figure formed from the black mist ahead, faintly revealing Chen Feis silhouette.

Once the figure took shape, it began to unleash a technique.

With purple light dancing and thunder roaring, though not loud, the profoundness of the technique was clearly displayedit was the Purple Sky Heavenly Song Sword.

As the Purple Sky Heavenly Song Sword technique began, the figure froze in place.

Chen Fei furrowed his brow slightly. This figure didnt seem to pose any threat at all; it was purely composed of black mist.

However, this black mist instantly recognized the techniques Chen Fei had learned, which was quite impressive.

Chen Fei looked up towards the depths of the barrier, where darkness prevailed.

Even if the Black Divine above the Sixth-Tier had dissipated its origin, leaving only the Fourth-Tier ability, the powers it possessed were not something ordinary people could guess.

Chen Fei withdrew his gaze, about to disperse the black mist ahead, when the figure moved again.

Stepping forward, the figure manifested hundreds of illusory forms from all directions, demonstrating the Thousand Illusions Sky Travel technique.

But after this step, the figure froze once more.

Chen Fei frowned as he observed the scene before him. Whether it was the previous Purple Sky Heavenly Song Sword or the current Thousand Illusions Sky Travel, both were extremely authentic.

Not only authentic, but the proficiency seemed to be on par with Chen Feis current level.

In other words, the two sets of techniques manifested by the figure had almost reached the level of Great Completion.

As this thought flashed through Chen Feis mind, a sword shadow appeared behind the frozen figure. The swords body was engraved with mountains, rivers, and vegetation. However, as soon as the sword shadow appeared, it shattered directly, causing even the figure to disintegrate.

Not only the figure, but even a large portion of the black mist ahead dissipated.

Chen Feis expression twitched slightly. Was this the activation of a trace of the Xuanyuan Swords true spirit? But with this kind of power, leaning towards evil, if it truly activated the true spirit of the Xuanyuan Sword, it would be one life for another.

The surrounding black mist continued to surge, filling the gap left by the dissipation, and the dispersed figure reappeared.

Chen Fei didnt deliberately shatter the figure. At this moment, he faintly guessed the purpose behind the figures appearance, but he couldnt be sure yet.

The figure exuded an ancient aura, and the shadow of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant appeared, but once again, the figure froze.

The techniques displayedBloodline Origin Shadow Technique, Shadow Lock Bow Technique, Teleportation, Domain Suppression, Sword Masteryall were not only manifestations of Chen Feis current abilities but even showcased his talents one by one.

However, without exception, they all froze in place after the first move.

The only technique that didnt freeze was the Endless Regeneration that the figure was currently employing!

Because of the recent surging of the black mist and the appearance of the illusion, the Black Divine had gained mastery over all of Chen Feis abilities.

From this alone, one could perceive the terror of the Black Divine, or rather, the vast difference in essence between the two.

And now, as the figure continuously employed the Endless Regeneration, a mysterious aura began to emerge in the surroundings.

The figures continuous use of the Endless Regeneration, from being far inferior to Chen Fei moments ago to now surpa.s.sing him, and if Chen Feis perception was correct, the mysterious aura surrounding them was the enlightenment of the Endless Regeneration.

Yes, at this moment, the figure was teaching Chen Fei how to cultivate the Endless Regeneration!

At this point, the figures role and purpose suddenly became clear.

Why did the figure freeze immediately after employing other techniques or talents just now? It was because all those techniques and talents had been cultivated by Chen Fei to Great Completion.

Great Completion meant there was no further room for improvement, so the figure naturally had nothing more to teach Chen Fei.

Only the Endless Regeneration, which Chen Fei had only mastered to a state of Perfection, could still be taught by the figure!

Chen Feis gaze flickered, indifferent to the enlightenment drifting around him.

The Black Divine is kindly teaching you insights into techniques and talents would you feel tempted or not?

Combining his own understanding of the Endless Regeneration, Chen Fei could see that the insights provided by the figure were not false but rather the genuine next step in his cultivation path.

In this regard, the Black Divine did not deceive.

But precisely because of this, Chen Fei felt a sense of terror upon deeper reflection.

Humans and beasts entered the Black Divines barrier to slay monsters, seeking to destroy the Black Divines domain. Yet, the Black Divine wanted to teach humans and beasts how to cultivate? This was a complete paradoxical relations.h.i.+p, something that couldnt possibly happen.

But the insights were genuine, indicating that the Black Divines intentions were something deeper.

Before coming to the Black Divines domain, there had been no mention of such a thing.

Even if some secrets were concealed in the Mountain Sea Realm, there were no secrets that could remain hidden forever. Eventually, they would be exposed.

Unless this was a recent experiment by the Black Divine, much like how those lingering souls gathered together, no longer transforming into monsters but forming something sinister.

All of these were the Black Divines responses to the attacks of humans and beasts, constantly adapting solutions.

Beasts sought to elevate their cultivation by continuously tapping into their own bloodlines, reverting to their ancestral forms.

Humans, however, face bottlenecks due to the level of comprehension of their techniques and the progress of their talents.

Many in the Mountain Sea Realm have remained stagnant for decades, even hundreds of years, ultimately growing old and dying without hope of reaching higher martial realms.

Now, with a figure like this providing insights into the path ahead, would you choose to ignore it altogether, or would you find yourself unable to resist getting drawn in?

The Black Divine undoubtedly harbors ill intentions, and there must be traps within, but how many can resist the opportunity for immediate breakthrough right in front of them?

Perhaps just absorbing a bit wouldnt hurt, right?

Chen Fei waved his hand, dispersing the figure in front of him. As for the insights around him, Chen Fei didnt take a single one.

Other pract.i.tioners in the Mountain Sea Realm were trapped in bottlenecks due to insufficient comprehension.

But Chen Fei didnt have such troubles. He didnt face any bottlenecks; he was still in possession of the three Divine Palaces. His only hindrance was the insufficient time to acc.u.mulate enough elemental energy.

With the cultivation of the Endless Regeneration, Chen Fei could reach Great Completion within a year. He had no need for the Black Divine to show him the way.

The surrounding insights dissipated, and Chen Fei was about to go find Tang Shouchang and the others when the black mist around him suddenly surged violently.

Chen Feis expression immediately turned vigilant, but what appeared in front of him wasnt an attack; it was the enlightenment of the Endless Regeneration.

If the amount of enlightenment just now was one, now there were three times as much.

Do you want to absorb it?
