Chapter 888: Amazing Talent

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Many things in this world cannot be changed merely by belief.

She Mingjian did not believe that Chen Fei was so powerful, and as a result, he met his end.

With She Mingjians death, the atmosphere on the Shadow Island instantly became somber, and the gaze turned vaguely toward She Mingchuan.

In the late Fourth Rank, with only She Mingchuan remaining, if She Mingchuan were to be defeated, the challenge of the Boundless Sea would be deemed successful, and this Mortal Combat battle would ultimately come to a close.

She Qianling and She Zijing stared intently at Chen Fei, observing that Chen Feis aura remained at its peak, his expression extremely grave.

It was understandable that Chen Fei could continuously perform such a powerful attack, given his deep foundation and the cost he was willing to bear. Many techniques can be forcibly executed with sufficient resources.

However, maintaining his aura at its peak after performing the attack was perplexing.

Previously, when Chen Fei was at mid Fourth Rank, after using the Dust Giant Body, his aura had dropped significantly.

Now, having advanced to late Fourth Rank, the power of the Dust Giant Body had increased dramatically, which should have also increased Chen Feis burden.

As mid to late Fifth Rank experts, She Qianling and She Zijing had the perspective to understand this.

The Dust Giant Body was an all-out explosive technique, demanding an outrageous amount of energy, spirit, and soul from the user. Even the mere act of condensing the Dust Giant Body could overwhelm the pract.i.tioner, let alone executing the full technique.

Thus, the Dust Giant Body would not become easier with increased cultivation.

Unless Chen Fei deliberately reduced the power of the Dust Giant Body, but from what they had seen, Chen Fei was still exerting his maximum strength, showing no intention to lessen its power.

To withstand two such strikes without any apparent effect?

She Qianling and She Zijing were puzzled, as were the others like Zhan Xuming, who wondered what kind of talent Chen Fei had chosen to achieve such extraordinary feats after breaking through to the late Mountain Sea Realm.

However, regardless of Chen Feis choice, their victory was a foregone conclusion.

She Mingchuan took a deep breath, drew his Clear Sword, and stepped into the arena.

She Mingchuan had always had a strong confidence in his own strength.

This confidence was built over years of practice, gradually acc.u.mulated from defeating enemies step by step.

Among the same tier, finding an opponent was rare.

Saying he was invincible among his peers might be an exaggeration, but within Shadow Island, there were only a few who could match him, and none had ever been able to suppress him.

As She Mingchuans realm continued to rise and his cultivation methods increased, his dominance over his peers became increasingly apparent.

Among the forces surrounding Shadow Island, those who could compete with She Mingchuan on equal terms were now few and far between.

Entering the Boundless Sea and partic.i.p.ating in this Mortal Combat battle, She Mingchuan had never considered the possibility of his own death.

In the late Fourth Rank Mortal Combat battle, She Mingchuan first defeated the Bloodwing Divine Phoenix, a mythical beast that posed no real threat to him.

Subsequently, She Mingchuan defeated five more opponents before taking a break.

It was not that She Mingchuan was exhausted; as a key pillar for Shadow Island in the late Fourth Rank battle, he needed to maintain enough strength to prevent any unexpected events.

Yet, facing Chen Fei now, She Mingchuan felt an unprecedented sense of dread.

Chen Feis displayed strength was simply unreasonable.

When Chen Fei had single-handedly defeated ten people earlier, although it was excessive, She Mingchuan could still understand it.

But the two strikes of the Dust Giant Body just now were beyond She Mingchuans comprehension.

The Boundless Sea, even if we win this Mortal Combat battle, the crisis will not end. The ultimate destruction of the Boundless Sea is a predetermined fact!

She Mingchuan looked at Chen Fei and said solemnly.

Chen Fei was momentarily taken aback, not expecting She Mingchuans first words upon taking the stage to be this. He couldnt help but let out a soft laugh.

The Boundless Seas strongest is at most mid Fifth Rank. In the Return to Nothing Realm, there are often Emperor Realm experts above Sixth Rank. How can the Boundless Sea counter that?

Seeing Chen Fei smile, She Mingchuan felt as though he was being insulted and shouted loudly at Chen Fei.

So should I forfeit this Mortal Combat battle and let you win, so you can take over our Boundless Sea? Chen Fei raised his eyes to look at She Mingchuan, his smile now fading.

If you cooperate with us from Shadow Island, even if the Boundless Seas essence of heaven and earth dissipates, we can still allow you to enter Shadow Island. Even if you do not like Shadow Island and prefer to go to other places in the Return to Nothing Realm, we will not obstruct you!

As She Mingchuan spoke, he directly used the essence of heaven and earth to conjure a map, depicting a vast and boundless worldthat was the Return to Nothing Realm.

Here, you wont have to worry about your cultivation being suppressed and unable to advance. Even during the peak of the Boundless Sea, one would need to reach the peak of Fifth Rank to break the void and enter the Return to Nothing Realm!

She Mingchuan waved his hand, spreading out the map of the Return to Nothing Realm, and stared at Chen Fei, saying, But now, if you are willing to lay down your hostility, you can enter the Return to Nothing Realm directly!

She Mingchuans words spread not only across the arena but also to those outside, reaching the ears of the Sun Moon Realm experts and the Monster Emperors.

The Boundless Seas maximum limit was mid Fifth Rank, an insurmountable barrier. Even powerful Emperor Realm experts had to shed their origin and suppress their cultivation to enter the Boundless Sea.

The Sun Moon Realm experts and the Monster Emperors had indeed considered going to the legendary Return to Nothing Realm.

However, without the coordinates for the Return to Nothing Realm, and with mid Fifth Rank strength, they could not remain in the void for extended periods.

In the past, when the Boundless Sea reached the peak of Fifth Rank and broke through the void, there was a vague sense of the Return to Nothing Realms call.

With that call and the peak of Fifth Rank strength, traveling to the Return to Nothing Realm was more than feasible.

Now, that was no longer possible.

For those trapped in mid Fifth Rank for years, like the Sun Moon Realm and the Monster Emperors, the Boundless Sea had become somewhat like a prison.

If they did not escape, what awaited them was old age and death.

The Sun Moon Realm, unlike the Black Divine, whose lifespan could reach thousands of years and remain vibrant despite being trapped for millennia, could not endure such a fate.

Finished?

Chen Fei looked at She Mingchuan impa.s.sively, slightly moving his Qianyuan Sword, and struck forward directly.

If youre done talking, then lets proceed!

As Chen Feis words fell, the Dust Giant Body behind him made the same motion, with its sword tearing through the void and slas.h.i.+ng toward She Mingchuan.

Did the Sun Moon Realm experts and Monster Emperors of the Boundless Sea want to go to the Return to Nothing Realm?

The answer was certainly yes; it would be a far broader world.

However, even with their desire, they could not possibly take the route through Shadow Island. It would be like sheep entering a tigers den, with their fate completely at Shadow Islands mercy.

In other words, once they entered Shadow Island, they would be treated like livestock for the rest of their lives, with no exceptions.

The Sun Moon Realm and Monster Emperors awaited the return of their ancestors who ascended years ago to establish a spatial pa.s.sage.

If the ancestors had been silent for these ten thousand years, it would be understandable. But now, the fluctuations of the Boundless Seas plane were so apparent in the void.

If the ancestors truly cared, they should have sent someone back.

The Seven Great Sacred Lands had once been their cultivation grounds, and the techniques of the seven Sacred Lands were not completely heartless or indifferent. It was unlikely they would ignore the situation entirely.

Its possible that even after ascending, they might not know the coordinates of the Boundless Sea in the void.

After all, planes in the void are constantly drifting and are not fixed.

Finding the Boundless Sea among so many planes would not be easy.

Thus, She Mingchuans words did not stir any ripple among the Sun Moon Realm experts and Monster Emperors. Expelling the Boundless Sea from Shadow Island was the original purpose of the Mortal Combat battle.

Now that the Mortal Combat battle was almost won, there was no possibility of negotiating with Shadow Island.

On the battlefield, She Mingchuans face changed drastically as he looked at the Dust Giant Bodys sword descending from the sky.

Only by facing the Dust Giant Body s sword directly could one understand how terrifying it truly was. His soul was screaming in agony. After refining for hundreds of years, She Mingchuans profound state of mind now felt the urge to flee.

But escape was impossible. The Dust Giant Bodys sword completely locked onto him, and no matter where he tried to hide, the sword would strike.

With nowhere to run and no way to evade, thinking only of escaping might even hasten his death.

Kill!

She Mingchuans eyes blazed with intense light. The look of panic gradually disappeared, and his Clear Sword emitted a faint, clear hum. Sword intent surged into the sky.

Forgetting his fear and everything around him, She Mingchuan fully immersed himself in his sword intent.

With a clear sword heart, controlling the sword with emotion, mind, and intent!

The Clear Sword Technique, which She Mingchuan had already perfected, seemed to gain a new understanding at this moment.

With a slight adjustment of his energy, spirit, and soul, a ma.s.sive power burst forth. She Mingchuan raised his head slightly, causing a ripple to spread from his body, creating significant distortions in the s.p.a.ce.

Combining energy, spirit, and soul to break through the Fourth Rank limit and step into Fifth Rank Divine Powers.

In the face of Mortal Combat fear, She Mingchuan sensed the Fifth Rank barrier in advance.

Breaking into Fifth Rank was not difficult for a prodigy like She Mingchuan. As long as he cultivated Fourth Rank to its peak, the breakthrough was a natural progression.

However, sensing the Fifth Rank barrier in the late Fourth Rank was indeed remarkable and demonstrated She Mingchuans exceptional talent.

She Mingchuan took a step forward, causing the s.p.a.ce to shatter. He tightly gripped the Clear Sword and swung it upwards toward the sky.

A barely perceptible sword thread shot up into the sky, slicing a black seam through the s.p.a.ce. She Mingchuans temples turned white in an instant.

Vroom!

The Dust Giant Bodys sword halted mid-air, blocked by the Clear Sword thread.

The light in She Mingchuans eyes seemed capable of piercing the heavens.

Chen Feis sword was strong, but She Mingchuan was definitely not weak!

Chen Feis expression s.h.i.+fted slightly as he looked at She Mingchuan with some surprise, meeting his gaze directly.

Seeing the defiance in She Mingchuans eyes, Chen Fei smiled slightly, gripping the Qianyuan Sword and applying a slight downward pressure.

Boom!

The Clear Sword thread, which had been opposing the Dust Giant Bodys sword, shattered instantly.

In the widening eyes of She Mingchuan, the Dust Giant Bodys sword swept directly across his body.

The icy spatial sword scar almost split the battlefield in half.
