Chapter 830: Breaking the Limit

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Soul Separation Technique!

Divide the soul with malevolent energy, where one part of the soul sank into slumber, serving as a fallback. Meanwhile, the main soul, under the Soul Separation Technique, absorbed the essence of the Mountain Sea Realm to mend its missing parts.

Since it required absorbing the essence of the Mountain Sea Realm, this technique also included a method to extract spiritual essence, somewhat akin to the Slaughter Spirit Technique but more focused on the soul.

An hour later, Chen Fei had finished reading the Soul Separation Technique, his eyes filled with contemplation.

It must be said that this Soul Separation Technique took a different path by preserving part of the soul, providing a chance for a comeback if unforeseen events occurred.

However, this technique was not without its flaws, which were quite apparent specifically, the injuries to the main soul after division.

Although these injuries could be supplemented with essence from other realms, such supplementation could not fully repair the main soul, leaving it with lingering imperfections.

Cultivating the soul was paramount in the Mountain Sea Realm; imperfections implied a loss of foundation and posed significant obstacles to cultivation.

Breaking through the barrier, the difficulty would be several times that of others.

Unless there was no hope ahead, ordinary pract.i.tioners in the Mountain Sea Realm would never do such a thing.

Chen Fei suspected Qu Haifan had practiced the Soul Separation Technique long ago, but encountered the descent of the Black Divine and subsequently joined the Black Divines camp directly.

With insights gained from the Black Divines techniques, one could indeed compensate for the deficiencies caused by the Soul Separation Technique.

For me, this technique is useless.

Chen Fei had alternatives; even with a flawed main soul, relying on the Great Completion level Purple Sky Stellar Technique could still break through to the peak of the Mountain Sea Realm.

However, Chen Feis goal was not just to reach the peak of the Mountain Sea Realm.

The Sun Moon Realm was where Chen Fei aimed to step into.

Once the main soul was flawed, no matter how far one cultivated the Purple Sky Stellar Technique, it would be impossible to break through to the Sun Moon Realm.

It could be said that any flaw on the peak of the Mountain Sea Realm would infinitely magnify during the breakthrough to the Sun Moon Realm, ultimately becoming the reason for failure.

Dividing the soul is impossible, but using spiritual essence to strengthen the soul, that method is quite suitable for creating clones.

The limit of the clones strength was stuck at the level of the three Divine Palaces, with a crucial point being the weakness of the clones divine soul.

With a weak divine soul, one couldnt control more Divine Palaces and naturally couldnt elevate further.

However, the secret technique within the Soul Separation Technique provided a good solution to this problem.

Fuse!

New technique discovered, Water Source Separation Shadow Technique!

Simplification!

Simplifying Water Source Separation Shadow Technique Simplification successful Water Source Separation Shadow Technique -> Water Source Shadow Technique!

On the interface, proficiency in the Water Source Shadow Technique reached mastery level, clearly indicating a significant advancement in this clone technique, exceeding Chen Feis expectations.

Only with such fusion functionality on the interface could Chen Fei integrate multiple techniques seamlessly. Otherwise, despite gaining many inheritances, he could only choose one to study. This method allowed him to directly merge suitable techniques.

Moreover, previous studies wouldnt go to waste.

The divine soul of the clone can only reach half of the main souls strength, meaning the limiting factor for the clones strength has s.h.i.+fted from techniques to my own realm.

Chen Feis expression flickered slightly, considering the combined factors of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique, Purple Sky Stellar Technique, and talent Divine Blessings.

In truth, Chen Feis divine soul was much stronger than those at the same level in the Mountain Sea Realm.

Estimating roughly, once Chen Feis realm reached six Divine Palaces and the Water Source Shadow Technique was mastered to Great Completion, his clone could use spiritual essence to advance to controlling four Divine Palaces.

Once Chen Fei broke through to the peak of the Mountain Sea Realm, his clone would have a chance to reach the later stages of that realm.

The clone cant surpa.s.s the true self, but many limitations are also lifted.

However, this method of supplementing the divine soul with spiritual essence probably could only be used within the Mountain Sea Realm.

As for what cultivation in the Sun Moon Realm entailed, Chen Fei had only vague guesses. Ensuring his clone could potentially reach the Sun Moon Realm in the future would require far more than just the Water Source Shadow Technique.

Yet, considering Chen Fei hadnt even reached the Sun Moon Realm himself, contemplating his clones potential in that realm seemed premature.

Three days later, Chen Fei appeared in the Green Cloud Market.

Using the power of the void, Chen Fei had already erased all the imprints on the spiritual treasures of Qu Haifan and his group.

However, today Chen Fei wasnt here to sell those spiritual treasures but to dispose of the two medium-grade spiritual treasures belonging to Luo Haiwei.

Inside the shop, the shopkeeper warmly welcomed Chen Fei.

However, when Chen Fei brought out the Heavenly Steel Blade and Night Demon Spear, despite the shopkeepers continued hospitality, Chen Fei sensed a subtle change in the shopkeepers expression.

There was no rule stating that a pract.i.tioner in the Mountain Sea Realm could only possess one spiritual treasure, but even with multiple treasures, each usually served a different function.

Both the Heavenly Steel Blade and the Night Demon Spear were clearly main battle spiritual treasures, obviously acquired from other pract.i.tioners in the Mountain Sea Realm.

Dont worry, I come from Thousand Geese City. These were obtained after I killed Black Divine Cultivators, Chen Fei said softly with a smile.

The shopkeeper was momentarily surprised, but then, recalling recent news, his expression relaxed.

Compared to other cities attacked by those who joined the Black Divines faction, Thousand Geese City was one of the few with relatively minor losses and where two attackers were immediately slain.

Therefore, as soon as Chen Fei mentioned this, the shopkeeper quickly recalled.

With the origins of the two medium-grade spiritual treasures clarified, there was no need for further concern. As for whether Chen Fei was lying, such matters could easily be verified, as true followers of the Black Divine wouldnt risk their lives over such things.

Half an hour later, Chen Fei left the shop.

He had sold both medium-grade spiritual treasures, along with unused spiritual materials and elixirs, all to the shop.

This included the spiritual materials obtained from slaying Qu Haifans group of seven, which were also sold.

There was no set standard for how many spiritual materials and elixirs should accompany medium-grade spiritual treasures in the mid-level of the Mountain Sea Realm. The wealth of these followers of the Black Divine actually matched their status.

Therefore, the shopkeeper had no suspicions whatsoever; instead, he became even more enthusiastic.

After completing the transaction, Chen Fei didnt lose out, and the shop made a substantial profit.

Rather than taking spirit stones, Chen Fei directly took the entire inventory of Myriad Bamboo from the shop.

The shop was quite large and had stocked up on a considerable amount of Myriad Bamboo. Chen Feis tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones were far from exhausting the entire stock of the shop.

However, Chen Fei didnt continue buying Myriad Bamboo with the high-grade spirit stones he had confiscated. Instead, he visited another shop and used them there, eventually reducing his high-grade spirit stones to just over a thousand.

Thirty whole stalks of Myriad Bamboo were placed into the Qianyuan Sword, along with the original ten Myriad clones, exhausting all of them. This could push Divine Blessing to over half of its full potential.

Chen Fei intended to continue selling Qu Haifans groups spiritual treasures but eventually reconsidered and abandoned the idea.

He decided to take a breather; the earnings from today were already substantial enough.

Moreover, as he had thought before, rapid advancement without a method to conceal his cultivation level could easily attract unnecessary trouble.

Transforming into a purple light soaring into the sky, Chen Fei left without any followers trailing behind.

In the Sacred City, such pursuits of a.s.sa.s.sination had ceased because if discovered, revealing oneself as a follower of the Black Divine would be disastrous.

Of course, outside the Sacred City, the situation might be different.

A few moments later, Chen Fei spotted the Mission Hall from afar.

I wonder how the previous missions went. If theres still no news, Ill have to push Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique to perfection, Chen Fei thought to himself.

Several thoughts flashed through Chen Feis mind. Achieving perfection in the Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique could to some extent conceal his true cultivation level.

However, that wasnt the primary function of the technique, so Chen Fei wasnt entirely sure how effective it would be.

Arriving before the Mission Hall, Chen Fei landed and proceeded inside to the counter.

A moment later, Chen Fei was pleasantly surprised to see that someone had taken up the mission he had commissioned.

However, the person who took the mission wasnt currently in the Sacred City, so the Mission Hall hadnt notified Chen Fei.

When Chen Fei had listed the attributes of the Slaughter Spirit Technique in detail in the mission, the fact that someone was willing to take on the task indicated they likely had relevant clues.

Even if it wasnt a follow-up technique to the Slaughter Spirit Technique, it was probably something similar, possibly helpful in concealing cultivation levels.

Could he combine it with perfecting the Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique at the Great Completion stage?

Chen Fei glanced at the other tasks listed in the Mission Hall. After a while, his initially relieved mood turned considerably heavier.

Chen Fei didnt have access to current information about those in the Sun Moon Realm, but just from the changes in the mission board, he could infer quite a bit.

Frowning, Chen Fei left the Mission Hall and returned to Thousand Geese City.

Over the next few days, Chen Fei spent time refining all the newly acquired Myriad Bamboo into Myriad Clones.

Since forty Myriad Clones werent enough to push Divine Blessing Talent to the Great Completion stage, Chen Fei didnt push them to their limits but instead let them continue to comprehend Divine Blessing Talent.

Chen Fei secluded himself in Thousand Geese City while the rest of the Sacred City, after enduring frenzied attacks from followers of the Black Divine, surprisingly returned to calm.

The Sacred City seemed to have employed some method, as within a few days, they had apprehended eight Black Divine Loyalists in succession, with the highest realm among them reaching the later stages of the Mountain Sea Realm.

This was the crucial reason for the subdued activity of the Black Divine Loyalists, but everyone knew they wouldnt simply retreat for good.

Ten days later, while Chen Fei continued his regular cultivation in Thousand Geese City, news arrived from the Mission Hall: the person who had taken Chen Feis mission had returned to the Sacred City.

Chen Fei immediately rushed to the Mission Hall.

He saw a mid-level Mountain Sea Realm pract.i.tioner dressed in green robes someone with five Divine Palaces, just like Chen Fei now.

Are you seeking the successor techniques of the Slaughter Spirit Technique?

Hao Guoshu looked at Chen Fei in a quiet chamber of the Mission Hall.

Yes!

Chen Feis eyes lit up. He had never mentioned the name Slaughter Spirit Technique in the mission, yet the other person accurately referred to it.

I dont possess the successor techniques of the Slaughter Spirit Technique, but I know where they can be found.

Hao Guoshu spoke as he gestured forward with his right hand, demonstrating the Slaughter Spirit Technique.

However, his proficiency in the technique was limited; he seemed to have only superficial knowledge without delving deeply into it.

The Slaughter Spirit Technique was formidable in its attacking power during the Aperture Tempering realm, but by the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, it mainly focused on erasing spiritual imprints and extracting spiritual essence.

In the Mountain Sea Realm, it could only partially erase spiritual imprints and had minimal impact on enhancing attacks.

As for extracting spiritual essence, there were many methods in the Mountain Sea Realm, making the Slaughter Spirit Technique less unique.

Where is this place? Chen Fei asked in a low voice.

Five days later, several figures flew out of the Sacred City.

In a sinister terrain pointed out by Hao Guoshu, there lay something he needed.

He offered to share the findings with Chen Fei if they cooperated in breaking through the sinister terrain, including the successor techniques of the Slaughter Spirit Technique.

For this expedition, Hao Guoshu had also invited another mid-level Mountain Sea Realm pract.i.tioner, forming a trio.

Early the next morning, they flew over twenty thousand miles and arrived at a mountain range.

Ahead, a mist enveloped several cities, creating an otherworldly sanctuary-like atmosphere.

Upon closer inspection, the cities were bustling with people, no different from typical human cities. In a trance, one could even hear the bustling sounds of human activity.

As Hao Guoshu struck out with a punch, dispersing the mist, everyone in the cities stopped in their tracks and stared straight at them.

Subtle smiles flickered across their faces.
