Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques - Chapter 927
Chapter 927: Invincible
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
In the early stages of the Sun Moon Realm, everyone fixed their gaze on Lu Shuzhang’s Night God Blade, trying to imagine how they would respond if faced with such a strike.
Not far off, Yu Xiaoliang guarded the courtyard of the fourth place. After recovering from his injuries with the help of the Qiankun Mansion’s healing abilities, he secured his current rank.
Yu Xiaoliang observed Lu Shuzhang’s blade technique, his pupils narrowing. Although he was reluctant to admit it, he knew he would lose against such a blow.
The gap was significant; unless Yu Xiaoliang could transform his divine power into a complete divine ability, he wouldn’t be able to withstand this move.
But by the time his divine power seed transformed, Yu Xiaoliang would likely have advanced to the mid-stage of the Sun Moon Realm.
The main reason why most in the early stages of the Sun Moon Realm had yet to break through was the cultivation of divine power.
As for the source points within their bodies, they had mostly reached a critical point. They just needed the divine power seed to transform and strike the source points with the power of a complete divine ability to break through successfully.
In the battle circle, Chen Fei looked up at the Dark Sovereign, which was several times larger than the Dust Giant Body, and held the Qianyuan Sword in front of him.
“Boom!”
The Dust Law Sword and the Night God Blade clashed. In terms of size, the Dust Law Sword appeared insignificant compared to the Night God Blade, like a mantis trying to stop a cart or an ant shaking a tree, hardly worth mentioning.
Yet, despite its insignificance, the Dust Law Sword firmly blocked the Night God Blade, without even a tremor in the Dust Giant Body.
In the Dark Sovereign, Lu Shuzhang’s eyes narrowed slightly. He was surprised that such a powerful strike was so effortlessly blocked by the opponent.
Others outside the situation might not understand, but Lu Shuzhang knew exactly what kind of power was behind that strike.
None of the many early-stage Sun Moon Realm guards in the Sky Resonance Court could withstand such a blow.
The Dark Sovereign roared silently, its mouth wide open, as Lu Shuzhang lifted the Night God Blade, ready to strike Chen Fei again.
One strike wasn’t enough to break through; Lu Shuzhang planned to see how many of his Night God Blade attacks Chen Fei could block!
Seeing Lu Shuzhang’s movements, Chen Fei smiled slightly, stepping forward. The Dust Giant Body behind him mimicked the action.
In an instant, the Dust Giant Body advanced to the Dark Sovereign’s front, evading the Night God Blade.
An inch longer, an inch stronger; an inch shorter, an inch more dangerous.
The Dark Sovereign stood several miles tall, offering a significant advantage in size, but nothing is perfect in this world.
An excessively large body inevitably affects agility to some extent.
The immense size of the Dark Sovereign meant that the Dust Giant Body’s advance left no room for the Night God Blade to maneuver.
Lu Shuzhang coldly watched the Dust Giant Body’s actions. Suddenly, the entire Dark Sovereign dissipated, only to reassemble several miles away, reversing the situation in an instant.
In the next moment, the Night God Blade swung down again, and this time, its power was even more fierce than before.
Onlookers’ expressions shifted.
The Dark Sovereign, inheritor of the Human Emperor’s legacy, moved with strategic precision, leaving no opportunity for others to exploit weaknesses.
When the Dust Giant Body advanced, they initially thought the Dark Sovereign could only passively endure the attack.
If that were true, the outcome would likely be decided in an instant.
After all, even the strongest defense would be broken if continuously attacked without any counter.
The Dust Giant Body had shown strong defense, but it hadn’t directly used its body to block the Night God Blade.
Chen Fei observed the Dark Sovereign with some surprise. Compared to the Dust Giant Body he had comprehended, the Dark Sovereign’s transformation was undoubtedly superior in its profundity.
Yet, techniques are merely tools; true combat effectiveness depends on who wields them!
Chen Fei gripped the Qianyuan Sword, its blade slicing upward, meeting the Night God Blade with a piercing, frosty line.
“Boom!”
Where the Dust Law Sword and the Night God Blade collided, a massive wave of energy swept through, tearing apart the surrounding darkness.
Within the Dark Sovereign, Lu Shuzhang’s face changed slightly. The downward strike of the Night God Blade was now deflected upward, and the towering Dark Sovereign was forced to retreat.
A huge gap appeared in the Night God Blade formed by the divine power.
Lu Shuzhang looked at Chen Fei as the Dark Sovereign dissipated again, channeling its immense power into the surrounding space.
As for the gap in the Night God Blade, there was no need to worry. When the Dark Sovereign reassembled, the blade would return to its original state.
In this extreme night, such minor damage would be swiftly repaired.
Chen Fei raised his eyes and watched as the Dark Sovereign dissipated.
In a single glance, a millennium passed!
The world suddenly slowed down; the essence of heaven and earth churned, and every bit of information around Chen Fei fell into his sight.
In the next moment, Chen Fei vanished and reappeared several miles away, sweeping his sword.
The enormous Dust Giant Body made the same move, its sword striking at an empty space.
“Boom!”
The Night God Blade appeared, blocking the Dust Law Sword.
However, the Dark Sovereign had chosen to dissipate to release its immense power, and now, reassembling took some time.
This delay would normally be insignificant, as the Dark Sovereign could reassemble anywhere without being caught by the opponent.
Yet, Chen Fei had anticipated where Lu Shuzhang intended to reassemble the Dark Sovereign.
The Night God Blade, only partially reformed, could not withstand the Dust Law Sword’s attack, and in its hasty reconstruction, it was even less capable of countering the sword’s edge.
With a thunderous explosion, the Night God Blade shattered, and the Dust Law Sword drove through, cutting across the Dark Sovereign’s core, where Lu Shuzhang was located.
“Wow!”
With no time to dodge and no assistance from the Dark Sovereign to absorb the impact, Lu Shuzhang felt the same intense pain Yu Xiaoliang had experienced earlier.
The Night God Blade struck Lu Shuzhang’s chest, collapsing it instantly, and he was hurled backward, flying out of the battle circle.
“Cough!”
In midair, Lu Shuzhang spewed blood, his face pale.
But as he neared the edge of the battle circle, he abruptly stopped.
The surrounding darkness surged toward Lu Shuzhang, who reversed the Night God Blade to reassemble the Dark Sovereign on a smaller scale.
Chen Fei’s figure appeared in front of Lu Shuzhang, the Qianyuan Sword descending once more.
Lu Shuzhang looked at Chen Fei in disbelief. The darkness roiled around them, and within this area, the force fields repelled anyone who intruded.
Yet, Chen Fei and the Dust Giant Body faced no hindrance, ignoring the dark force fields and advancing directly.
“Boom!”
Another intense explosion echoed as the Dust Giant Body’s attack overwhelmed Lu Shuzhang. His entire body crashed heavily onto the ground outside the battle circle.
A massive recoil jolted through his back, causing Lu Shuzhang’s vision to blur briefly, followed by a tide of pain engulfing him.
His bones cracked, internal organs shattered, and his spirit and soul suffered severe damage.
As his vision gradually cleared, Lu Shuzhang looked up at Chen Fei floating in midair, his expression filled with bewilderment.
He had lost, and lost utterly.
Aside from the initial exchange where the two sides were evenly matched, from the moment Chen Fei began his aggressive assault, Lu Shuzhang had fallen into an absolute disadvantage, with no chance for a comeback.
Throughout his life, Lu Shuzhang had always admired his father, the current Human Emperor, as his role model.
Entering the Qiankun Mansion, he sought to leverage others’ strengths to complete his own transformation.
Yet, on his very first day in the mansion, he had suffered such a devastating defeat.
As the esteemed child of the Emperor, being expelled from the battle circle like a mere commoner, Lu Shuzhang couldn’t find any grounds for rebuttal.
It wasn’t a sneak attack or a conspiracy, but a straightforward confrontation, and he had lost, with no excuses!
The onlookers were also silent. Lu Shuzhang’s loss was not something unacceptable.
He was Lu Shuzhang, not the Human Emperor, and no one could claim they would always win.
But to lose so miserably, and to a peer of the same realm, was entirely unexpected.
Who exactly is Chen Fei?
No one had heard of him before!
Chen Fei cupped his hands to Lu Shuzhang and then landed on the ground.
The onlookers scrutinized Chen Fei, who remained calm.
Being in the early stage of the Sun Moon Realm, if he couldn’t even defeat someone at the same realm, then his fourteen innate talents would be rather disappointing.
The Human Emperor’s inheritance is indeed powerful, but at the early stage of the Sun Moon Realm, it couldn’t shake Chen Fei.
Unless Chen Fei advances to the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm solely using the current Thunder Roar Stellar Technique, then if he encounters Lu Shuzhang at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm in the future, the outcome would be uncertain.
One tree alone cannot support a forest. With three divine abilities at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm, even the formidable “Indestructible Vision” could easily close the gap between them.
Soon, with the remaining half an hour passing, all one hundred and twenty courtyards were selected.
After defeating Lu Shuzhang, no one else challenged Chen Fei. He stood in front of the courtyard, watching the matches between the late-stage Sun Moon Realm and the pinnacle Sun Moon Realm.
“All right, those who did not get a courtyard should move to alternative accommodations. From tomorrow, the training at Qiankun Mansion officially begins!” Dao Yuefeng said softly to everyone before vanishing into the air.
Sun Moon Realm practitioners gathered around Chen Fei, offering congratulations and subtly inquiring about his background.
Chen Fei handled it with ease. After half an hour, everyone left, and Chen Fei entered the courtyard.
The courtyard was spacious enough to accommodate hundreds of people without any issues. Most importantly, the essence of heaven and earth here was extremely pure, and the spiritual energy was highly responsive.
It offered great benefits for both cultivation and breakthroughs.
Soon, Chen Fei controlled the formation of the courtyard and discovered that it could convert the comprehensive essence of heaven and earth into a single attribute or multiple attributes as needed.
While not as effective as the public training rooms, the results were still very strong. The key was that the courtyard was free to use and required no merit points.
“With a slight adjustment, the proficiency of Indestructible Vision and Thunder Roar Stellar Technique should improve,” Chen Fei thought to himself.
These were merely standard benefits. What Chen Fei valued most about Qiankun Mansion was the access to the most elite human cultivation techniques.
The Thunder Roar Stellar Technique was still too ordinary.
An hour later, Chen Fei appeared in Sky Sea City, moving everyone from Thousand Geese City out of the Tianling Pendant.
In the name of Qiankun Mansion’s student, he arranged identities for everyone in Thousand Geese City.
The city lord’s estate staff seemed to handle Chen Fei’s requests with the utmost efficiency.
After several months in the Celestial Treasure, the people of Thousand Geese City finally saw the light of day again and could now live normally in Sky Sea City.
After arranging everything, Chen Fei, along with Sect Master Qu Qingsheng, Elder Zhou Zixun, Master Feng Xiupu, Senior Brother Guo Linshan, Shi Shuoqing, Tong Linyun, and Shi Defeng, moved into the Qiankun Mansion’s courtyard.
The environment at Qiankun Mansion was more than capable of rapidly enhancing their realms in a short period.
Early the next morning, the training at Qiankun Mansion officially began.
The first lesson: attempting to resonate with the Qiankun Cauldron, the greatest treasure of humanity!
