Chapter 789: Sacred Lands Cultivation Method

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Bang!

The commotion of the battle on Zhao Ruizhengs side brought Zhao Tianyue and Zhao Ruizheng back to their senses.

Looking at the Thunder Pool ahead, it was evident that Chen Fei didnt need their a.s.sistance. As for Zhao Ruizhengs side, they were currently dominating the situation.

Within the Thunder Pool, Chen Fei watched as Zhao Tianyue and Zhao Ruizheng charged towards another monster, joining forces to kill it.

The overall situation was settled; there wouldnt be any other issues.

Chen Fei lowered his gaze to the struggling remains of the monster at his feet.

It seemed like Chen Fei found it easier to deal with this Fourth-Tier mid-level monster than Zhao Ruizheng, not because Chen Fei was stronger, but because Chen Fei used the Xuanyuan Sword Formation to suppress the monsters recovery speed.

This was the most troublesome and tenacious aspect of monsters, and it was the fundamental reason why Zhao Ruizheng couldnt swiftly slay them.

Even the Purple Sky Heavenly Song Sword in the Great Completion stage could only slowly wear down the monsters vitality at the moment.

It wasnt that the Purple Sky Heavenly Song Sword was weak, but Chen Feis current realm was only in the early stages of the Mountain Sea Realm, unable to fully demonstrate the stronger aspects of this technique.

If Chen Fei had been in the middle stage of the Mountain Sea Realm at that moment, four Divine Palaces the outcome wouldve been very different.

In the middle stage of the Mountain Sea Realm, when the first three Divine Palaces were connected, it signified an increase in the power that pract.i.tioners could output in an instant.

When it came down to it, battles were simply about who could output more power.

The advancement in cultivation realm and the increase in proficiency in techniques resulted in an increase in the amount of elemental power that could be unleashed in a single move.

With the same technique, a pract.i.tioner in the middle stage of the Mountain Sea Realm could call upon more elemental power at once compared to someone in the early stage, naturally resulting in much greater power.

Chen Fei had been stronger than other early-stage pract.i.tioners in the Mountain Sea Realm because his level of technique had been higher and his mastery had been better. Under a single sword strike from Chen Fei, the burst of elemental power had been unmatched by other early-stage pract.i.tioners in the Mountain Sea Realm.

Furthermore, with the immense strength bestowed by the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, all these factors had led to Chen Feis dominance in the early stage of the Mountain Sea Realm.

The techniques that Zhao Ruizheng had cultivated had actually not been as good as the Purple Sky Heavenly Song Sword, and his level of mastery had also not been comparable to Chen Feis.

But Zhao Ruizhengs cultivation level was higher. His fundamental realm allowed him to output much more elemental power in a single move than Chen Fei, naturally making his combat power stronger.

The techniques possessed by a pract.i.tioner in the middle stage of the Mountain Sea Realm were, to be honest, quite troublesome compared to monsters.

Of course, if Chen Fei were to directly confront Zhao Ruizheng, and if Chen Fei managed to borrow even a fraction of Zhao Ruizhengs power, then the subsequent outcome would be somewhat uncertain.

Triggering the Suppressing Dragon Elephants almost abnormal self-healing ability, Chen Fei might become unkillable. In the end, it might even be possible for Chen Fei to kill Zhao Ruizheng.

However, if Chen Fei were facing a pract.i.tioner in the later stage of the Mountain Sea Realm at that moment, the situation would be entirely different.

With such a stark difference in cultivation realms, it was inevitable that the damage reduction limit would be pierced. Even with the support of the Suppressing Dragon Elephants self-healing ability, Chen Fei wouldnt be able to harness that power.

If Chen Fei didnt flee, he would undoubtedly be worn down and eventually killed.

Swoos.h.!.+

A golden sword shadow pierced straight into the monsters body. The true spirit of the Xuanyuan Sword eroded the vitality of the monster. Already in a dying state, the monsters vitality completely collapsed, turning into powder and scattering on the ground.

These monsters didnt possess spiritual essences; their composition was fragmented souls, further contaminated by the Black Divines corruption, ready to be absorbed by spiritual treasures. Eventually, even the spiritual treasures might be corrupted.

Chen Fei sensed the situation of the Xuanyuan Sword in his sea of consciousness. The true spirit had been depleted somewhat, but what suffered greater depletion were Chen Feis mind and soul.

Using the Xuanyuan Sword to kill enemies always incurred such costs.

This was because the true spirit of the Xuanyuan Sword didnt reject Chen Fei, but wielding such power required sufficient strength to wield it.

A cl.u.s.ter of spiritual light floated up from the ground, most of which fell into Chen Feis appraisal jade ruler, while the remaining portion split into three and rushed towards Zhao Tianyue and the others.

Chen Fei waved his hand, dispersing the Thunder Pool around him, and the battle far away involving Zhao Ruizheng had already ended, with the monster being completely slain.

Compared to Chen Fei, who had to use the true spirit of the Xuanyuan Sword to quickly extinguish the vitality of monsters, Zhao Ruizheng with his six Divine Palaces found it much easier. He only needed to directly consume them with his own elemental power.

A small portion of spiritual light flew from afar and entered Chen Feis appraisal jade ruler.

Chen Fei glanced at his own appraisal jade ruler. The contribution points were around nine for the small portion, which was the reward for killing the Fourth- Tier early-stage monster just now.

There was also about one point for the medium portion, which was the product of slaying two Fourth-Tier mid-level monsters.

Contribution points were divided into four levels: small, medium, large, and extreme, based on the strength of the monsters slain.

Inside the Mission Hall, many rewards had requirements based on contribution point levels. Contribution points could be exchanged downwards; for example, a medium-grade contribution could be exchanged for three small-grade contributions, but not vice versa.

That meant three small-grade contributions could not be exchanged for one medium-grade contribution.

This didnt mean that small-grade contributions were worthless, but rather, it ensured that those with strength in the Mountain Sea Realm not only had to slay weaker monsters but also monsters of the same realm as themselves.

This way, they could exchange for the rewards they needed.

Its finally dead! Zhao Tianyues face had been somewhat pale as she spoke.

Burning her soul, although for a short time, had left Zhao Tianyue feeling somewhat drained. What was more critical was that she had almost died just now.

Thinking of this, Zhao Tianyue couldnt help but look towards Chen Fei.

Coincidentally, Chen Fei also looked over, causing Zhao Tianyues heart to skip a beat involuntarily, followed by a gentle smile.

We owe it to Brother Chen this time!

Zhao Ruizheng looked at Chen Fei, his expression somewhat admiring. This was a true genius.

Even though Chen Fei could slay Fourth-Tier mid-level monsters, it seemed to be due to a technique specifically targeting them, but his own strength had still been very strong.

Viewing Chen Fei as a pract.i.tioner in the middle stage of the Mountain Sea Realm had posed no problem at all.

This battle was tough. Lets leave the barrier first and report the situation, Chen Fei stepped forward, smiling.

Yes, lets leave the barrier first! Zhao Ruizheng nodded in agreement without objection.

Half an hour later, Chen Fei and the other three left the Black Divines barrier and appeared in the Mission Hall.

Zhao Ruizheng reported the situation of the Fourth-Tier mid-level monster inside the barrier, only to find out that other teams had already conveyed this information.

The Mission Hall provided a slight reward in the form of small contributions.

Zhao Ruizheng and his companions each rented a secret chamber behind the Mission Hall to recuperate.

It went without saying for Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang, but Zhao Ruizheng, in order to swiftly slay the monster, had also burned his soul and thus needed a few days to recover.

Fortunately, the major Sacred Lands had few worries about letting everyone enter the barrier to slay monsters, and the healing sacred medicines in the Mission Hall required relatively low contribution points.

Moreover, the secret chambers behind the Mission Hall utilized some of the profound resources of the major Sacred Lands, greatly enhancing the absorption efficiency of the worlds elemental energy. Not only was it excellent for healing, but it also had outstanding effects for cultivation.

Zhao Ruizheng and the others went to practice and recover, agreeing to meet again in five days.

Chen Fei did not rent a secret chamber but instead went to the Mission Hall.

Chen Fei first exchanged his medium-grade contribution for small-grade contributions, resulting in twelve small-grade contributions on his appraisal jade ruler.

I want to exchange for techniques!

At the counter, Chen Fei took out his own appraisal jade ruler and handed it to the attendant.

The Mission Hall attendant glanced at the jade ruler, then took out a jade slip and handed it to Chen Fei.

Inside are introductions to techniques that can be exchanged for ten smallgrade contributions. Take a look, and let me know if you find one youre satisfied with, and Ill fetch it for you!

Chen Fei thanked the attendant with a bow, then took the jade slip and immersed his mind into it.

Twelve small-grade contributions couldnt get him the Heavenly Rain Flower, but they were enough to exchange for a decent spiritual material, sufficient to complete the remaining part of the fourth Divine Palace for Chen Fei.

However, Chen Feis talent was still not fully realized; there was still a part missing for him to reach the Great Perfection.

If he were to complete the Divine Palace now, it would be challenging for Chen Fei to enter the Void to seek out his talent.

Even if he managed to enter, the consumption would be significant, and he might not be able to find a talent that satisfied him.

If you want to do a job well, you must first sharpen your tools!

According to the normal pace of cultivation, it would take several months to fully cultivate the talent Endless Regeneration to the Great Perfection.

This was already quite fast, but Chen Feis cultivation speed was even faster.

Fortunately, with the Black Divines barrier now, Chen Fei would only be delayed for a few days at most before he could cultivate the Talent Endless Regeneration to the Great Perfection. Then, he could complete the fourth Divine Palace.

Choosing the fifth talent, he would step into the middle stage of the Mountain Sea Realm!

As Chen Fei browsed the contents of the jade slip, the major Sacred Lands had collectively brought out dozens of top-notch techniques.

These techniques were actually closely related to their own sects core techniques.

In fact, many of these techniques were derived from their sects core techniques and were provided for disciples to cultivate. Once successfully cultivated, if disciples wanted to switch to the sects core techniques in the future, it would be much simpler.

Chen Fei liked every one of these dozens of techniques. Each one, when integrated into his current Purple Sky Heavenly Song Sword, would be enough to advance it further.

By then, most of the people from those Sacred Lands would only have the advantage of spiritual treasures left when facing Chen Fei.

In terms of mastery of techniques, Chen Fei would far surpa.s.s them, unless someone among them directly cultivated the sects core techniques.

This one, the Seven Star Illumination Technique! Chen Feis eyes lit up as he saw a technique, and he looked up at the Mission Hall attendant.

The Seven Star Illumination Technique was a body-refining technique.

However, unlike techniques like the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, which focused solely on refining the physique without cultivating elemental power, the Seven Star Illumination Technique used elemental power to drive the growth of the body, somewhat similar to the Tiandao Sect of the Thousand Feathers Alliance in the past.

Of course, in terms of level, the two couldnt be compared.

At the same time, the Seven Star Illumination Technique was somewhat like a secret technique. If cultivated successfully, during battle, one could directly ignite stars within the body.

Igniting one star would increase combat power by a margin.

Igniting four stars would, invisibly, be equivalent to adding the power of one Divine Palace. Igniting seven stars would directly increase the power of two Divine Palaces.

However, igniting stars placed an immense burden on the body. Even if one mastered the Seven Star Illumination Technique to its finest details, this would still be the case.

Igniting four stars could be maintained for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea. Once all seven stars were ignited, it would only last for a single move. If one forcibly sustained all seven stars, the first to collapse would be oneself.

In essence, igniting stars was more like burning the soul without harm, but with a slightly shorter duration.

However, even so, the Seven Star Illumination Technique was already quite remarkable. Those who successfully cultivated it would have an additional combat choice compared to other martial artists.

As Chen Fei read the introduction to this technique, his emotions surged. It was as if this technique had been tailor-made for him.

With the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, unless the burden was excessively exaggerated, it would be impossible to overwhelm Chen Fei.

You have a good eye, sir. This technique is a preliminary technique of the Stellar Divine Technique, the Mission Hall attendant said with a soft smile upon hearing Chen Feis words.

The Stellar Divine Technique?

Chen Fei was taken aback.

This seemed to be the core technique of the Stellar Sacred Land. Chen Fei hadnt expected the Seven Star Illumination Technique to be a reduced version of this technique.

Chen Fei glanced at the light curtain in front of him. By slaying a hundred Fourth-Tier initial-level monsters, he could exchange for half of the Stellar Sacred Lands core techniques.

If Chen Fei cultivated the Seven Star Illumination Technique to the Great Perfection and then exchanged it for half of the Stellar Divine Technique, would the resulting technique be much inferior to the original Stellar Divine Technique?

Or perhaps, to be safer, he could first refine two or three other top-notch techniques and then choose the Stellar Divine Technique. The final result wouldnt be much worse in comparison.

After a moment, a jade slip was handed to Chen Fei.

Techniques couldnt be privately taught. Once discovered, it would lead to direct pursuit and execution by the holy sect.

Chen Fei rented a secret chamber and immersed his entire consciousness into the jade slip.

Two hours later, Chen Fei slowly exhaled a breath of relief.

Discovered a new technique!

Refine!

Discovered a technique, the Purple Sky Stellar Sword!
