Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques - Chapter 905
Chapter 905: Brilliant Talent
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
First, he verified his current strength and confirmed that it had indeed reached the Sun Moon Realm level. Even when fighting someone like Yan Ming’an, who possessed divine abilities, he was still able to hold his ground.
It can only be said that the twelve divine palaces and fourteen talents were just too extraordinary.
What was even more critical was that these divine palaces and talents were still in a state of fusion, which meant Chen Fei’s power had already started to show signs of the Sun Moon Realm.
Of course, the foundational energy added by the Six Desires Demonic Separation was also indispensable. Without such a substantial source, even with endless talent and the ability to devour the heavens, it would not be enough to replenish the energy consumed.
The power of one’s talents is closely related to their foundational strength, and Chen Fei’s foundation was particularly outstanding due to the absorption of the six Demonic Bodies.
All these factors allowed Chen Fei to match the strength of the early Sun Moon Realm.
Although he could not achieve the same reverse strike as Black Divine, it was not an issue with Chen Fei himself but rather the difference in conditions.
If Chen Fei could spread his cultivation to the Aperture Tempering Realm, he could also perform reverse strikes against the Combined Aperture Tempering Realm, as his understanding of power was on a different level.
Naturally, if Chen Fei could use the Dust Giant Body, his combat power would rise even further, but there was still a considerable gap before he could defeat Yan Ming’an.
At the very least, if Yan Ming’an was determined to leave, Chen Fei would not be able to stop him.
Several hours later, Chen Fei returned to the territory of Immortal Cloud City.
In the cultivation room, Chen Fei sat cross-legged, sensing the state of his body.
The interference effect from his battle with Yan Ming’an had been achieved.
The warning from his innate sincerity had reached its weakest state in recent times.
Chen Fei’s actions at Fallen Leaves Mountain and his battle with Yan Ming’an were currently fermenting.
The arrival of people from the Return to Nothing Realm meant that their purpose was to target the Boundless Sea, just like with the previous Shadow Island.
Upon learning of the Return to Nothing Realm’s arrival, Chen Fei had already realized this.
Since they were targeting the Boundless Sea, these Sun Moon Realm individuals from the Return to Nothing Realm would not tolerate anyone from other planes competing with them.
Only by first clearing the unstable forces within the Boundless Sea could the Sun Moon Realm cultivators of Sky Sea City securely lock onto the essence of the Boundless Sea.
If disrupting the vision was the original goal, then the battle with Yan Ming’an, which accelerated the fusion of divine palaces and talents, was indeed an unexpected benefit.
Chen Fei had previously thought that the fusion of divine palaces and talents could only proceed step by step.
After all, the number of divine palaces and talents requiring fusion was so great that it was beyond the scope of normal Mountain Sea Realm assessments.
Chen Fei was somewhat fortunate to have learned the Sun Moon chapter of the Stellar Divine Technique. With this higher-level technique, he could complete the integration of his innate talents.
Otherwise, even with the Great Completion level of the Nine Heavens Stellar Technique, it would still take a considerable amount of time to refine the fourteen talents into divine seeds.
“In as little as five days and at most half a month, the talents will be fully refined, and then I can break through to the Sun Moon Realm!”
If he could fight another Sun Moon Realm practitioner, the time could be further shortened.
However, given the current situation in the Boundless Sea, it would be somewhat unwise to venture out just to shorten the cultivation time by a few days.
Chen Fei closed his eyes and continued to refine his proficiency with the Sun Moon chapter of the Stellar Divine Technique.
Meanwhile, in the central hall of the Sacred City, Yan Ming’an and Duan Suizhi had summoned the Sun Moon Realm practitioners from several major sacred lands and also called upon the Monster Emperors.
“Several hours ago, the Boundary Spirit Pearl did detect the opening of a spatial passage, but by the time we arrived, the passage had already closed,” Zhuo Xiansheng said solemnly.
“Does the Boundless Sea have such a technique?”
Yan Ming’an waved his right hand, and a phantom appeared in the hall. It was the Six Desires Demonic Separation previously used by Chen Fei, which Yan Ming’an now recreated with striking accuracy.
Zhuo Xiansheng and the others observed carefully, and after the figure in mid-air dissipated, they all shook their heads.
“If I am not mistaken, these six phantoms can separate and combine, which should be a type of clone technique, but it is a further development beyond mere clones. There is no such technique in the Boundless Sea,” Meng Guangning said softly.
The other Sacred Land leaders nodded in agreement with Meng Guangning’s assessment.
The Boundless Sea had countless extraordinary techniques, but there were still some discernible patterns.
Moreover, if it were truly a supreme technique, the information networks of the major sacred lands would definitely be aware of it.
According to Yan Ming’an, this Mountain Sea Realm practitioner had resisted his attacks for dozens of rounds without dying and ultimately escaped his pursuit.
Such a Mountain Sea Realm practitioner had never been recorded in the Boundless Sea’s history.
Even Chen Fei, who was considered remarkably powerful, would not possess such abilities.
Duan Suizhi and Yan Ming’an exchanged glances. In such matters, these Sun Moon Realm practitioners from the Boundless Sea were unlikely to lie or have a reason to lie.
This indicated that the person they encountered might indeed come from another plane.
But which plane could have a Mountain Sea Realm practitioner with such strength?
Yan Ming’an’s public statement was that the person withstood dozens of his attacks without dying, which was already shocking enough.
If they were to learn that Yan Ming’an himself had been unable to defeat the opponent and had to retreat, it would be even harder to accept.
Yan Ming’an frowned deeply, believing that the Boundless Sea could not possibly produce such a powerful individual, especially since even in the Return to Nothing Realm, no such formidable Mountain Sea Realm practitioner had appeared.
“Mobilize all forces to search for that individual, or the Boundless Sea may never find peace!” Yan Ming’an said in a deep voice.
Meng Guangning and the others nodded in agreement, offering no objections.
Yan Ming’an soared from the central hall and, after two hours, arrived in the southwestern region of the Boundless Sea.
“Greetings, Senior Pan.”
Upon seeing a figure in the distance, Yan Ming’an hurried forward and cupped his hands in respect.
“Have all the disciples of the Stellar Sacred Land been captured?”
Pan Qingwu held a compass in his left hand and continuously performed calculations with his right hand, trying to locate the essence of the Boundless Sea.
“Report to Senior Pan, there is only one Stellar Sacred Land disciple left to be captured. We should be able to apprehend them by tomorrow,” Yan Ming’an replied softly.
“Then why have you come?” Pan Qingwu turned to look at Yan Ming’an.
“I suspect there are visitors from another plane,” Yan Ming’an explained the events of the day in detail.
Yan Ming’an did not add or omit any facts, as this would affect Pan Qingwu’s calculations.
After hearing Yan Ming’an’s account, Pan Qingwu’s brows furrowed slightly.
The compass in his hand remained still, and Pan Qingwu used his right hand to perform calculations in the air. After a moment, his frown deepened.
Pan Qingwu, who had been a disciple of the Sky Sea City Lord, practiced a divine ability with a touch of causal law, which allowed him to infer unknown matters based on existing information.
However, this divine ability was not true causal law and had many limitations.
The more detailed the target’s information, the more accurate Pan Qingwu’s inference would be. Moreover, if the target’s divine abilities were strong, rashly performing the calculations could even backfire.
At this moment, Pan Qingwu’s calculations did not result in any backlash, but what appeared before him was a vague and murky future.
Pan Qingwu looked at the compass in his left hand. It was currently locked onto the essence of the Boundless Sea. This had been ongoing for several days, and using the compass now would be equivalent to abandoning the progress of the past few days.
It would be extremely troublesome for Pan Qingwu to start from scratch again.
“Can you capture the opponent’s divine soul aura?” Pan Qingwu asked Yan Ming’an.
“Not at all!” Yan Ming’an replied with some embarrassment.
He had fought against a Mountain Sea Realm practitioner but had not even managed to capture the opponent’s divine soul aura.
“That person must have a mystical treasure that conceals their aura, or their divine seed, which is about to be condensed, can obscure the causal connections.”
Pan Qingwu shook his head and decided to abandon the use of the compass for calculations.
Wasting several days of time was not the main issue; Pan Qingwu knew that even if he used the compass, he likely would not be able to determine the details.
Since Yan Ming’an had not brought any information, it was like trying to calculate a person out of thin air, with the key information about the person being concealed.
Pan Qingwu, while skilled in causal laws relative to the Sun Moon Realm, was not capable of determining specifics to this extent.
The path of causality was vast and profound. Even the Sky Sea City Lord had once said that he only grasped the surface of the causal path.
“So, what do we do now?” Yan Ming’an asked, looking up at Pan Qingwu.
“Guard the spatial passage of Sky Sea City and station people at Fallen Leaves Mountain. A mere Mountain Sea Realm practitioner won’t cause too much trouble,” Pan Qingwu replied solemnly.
Newly emerged spatial passages could not transmit very powerful forces, and the passage at Fallen Leaves Mountain was fleeting, likely only bringing over one Mountain Sea Realm practitioner.
Currently, that Mountain Sea Realm practitioner could be considered only at the early stage of the Sun Moon Realm. In terms of the strength of the Boundless Sea, it was hardly significant.
As long as Sky Sea City’s spatial passage remained intact, they could continuously send Sun Moon Realm practitioners from Sky Sea City if needed.
Furthermore, by securing Fallen Leaves Mountain, and considering the same plane, the characteristics of the area would prevent other people from the same plane from arriving in the short term.
They could then mobilize the strength of the Boundless Sea to search for that individual without major concerns.
“Understood.”
Yan Ming’an nodded. Seeing Pan Qingwu resume his calculations on the essence of the Boundless Sea, he bowed slightly and stepped back.
Over the next few days, the major Sacred Lands mobilized all their forces to search for suspicious individuals.
After capturing the last disciple of the Stellar Sacred Land, Duan Suizhi and Yan Ming’an focused all their attention on the search.
Despite feeling it was unlikely, Yan Ming’an still included Chen Fei in the list of suspects after some consideration.
Amidst the turmoil caused by one person throughout the Boundless Sea.
In the territory of Immortal Cloud City, Chen Fei’s refinement of the twelve divine palaces and fourteen talents had reached a critical stage.
Intense power clashes surged between the talents but were firmly contained within his body by Chen Fei’s foundational energy.
Chen Fei’s expression remained calm and unruffled, even though dramatic changes occurred within his body, it did not disturb his inner peace.
The other thirteen talents gradually dimmed, while the primary talent, Unblemished Divine Vision, grew increasingly brighter.
