Chapter 964: Slaying A Peak Sun Moon Realm
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Tan Dongyuan and the others did not attempt to resist, despite being in a declining realm. In terms of power, it was still vastly superior to the Sun Moon Realm, even at its peak.
Tan Dongyuan and the others began to dissipate their own origins, and a phantom of divine power emanated from them, causing the space within their bodies to collapse and transform into a towering pillar.
A colossal celestial phenomenon appeared behind them, caused by the dispersal of their pure origins.
The faces of Tan Dongyuan and the others turned ashen. Dissipating their own origins severely damaged their foundation.
Although with heavenly materials and earthly treasures they could slowly recover their original cultivation level, any attempt to break through to the Rule Integration Realm afterward would become considerably more difficult.
In a sense, Tan Dongyuan and the others had little hope of breaking through to the Sixth Stage Rule Integration Realm, which is why they were dispatched here for this task.
The lack of hope for breaking through to the Rule Integration Realm did not mean their strength was inferior.
Sometimes, knowing that breaking through was hopeless would drive them to study various unique techniques, continuously enhancing their foundation.
These peak Sun Moon Realm practitioners were daring and combative, with countless secret techniques, and should not be underestimated.
The rule chains around Tan Dongyuan and the others vanished, and they directly shattered the space, charging toward Chen Fei.
They needed to resolve the situation quickly; the Sky Sea City would soon detect the anomaly, and Tan Dongyuan and the others had to capture Chen Fei before Sky Sea City could respond.
If capturing was not feasible, they would have to kill him.
One of the two objectives must be completed, and it must be done swiftly!
Chen Fei, suspended in mid-air, had the Eternal Night Manifestation standing behind him, exuding a vast and overwhelming aura.
Soul Dissolution at seventy percent!
Divine Dissolution, Pillar Mountain!
The space around Chen Fei shattered instantly, turning the area within several dozen miles into an expanse of void.
“Roar!”
A roar akin to an ancient beast resonated from Chen Fei.
The phantom of the Six-Legged Dragon Elephant appeared behind the Eternal Night Manifestation but soon vanished, transforming into a beam of heavenly light that descended upon the Eternal Night Manifestation.
Celestial Suppression!
Chen Fei had not yet truly begun training this technique, and given its level, achieving mastery was extremely challenging.
Without simplification, every increment in proficiency would require a long period to accumulate.
After all, this was a technique of the Yuan Clan, created specifically for them.
Chen Fei was of the human race, with fundamentally different essence, spirit, and soul compared to the Yuan Clan. The ability to cultivate the Suppressing Dragon Elephant to perfection was thanks to his attributes.
The difficulty of mastering Celestial Suppression was even greater than that of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, so it was natural that Chen Fei, having only recently acquired it, could not have learned it immediately.
However, because Chen Fei had excelled in cultivating the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, if there were rankings for the technique’s perfection, his performance would certainly not be inferior to the creator of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant.
Thus, Chen Fei connected the Celestial Suppression with the Suppressing Dragon Elephant and used the Suppressing Dragon Elephant to reverse-push the Celestial Suppression, extracting some of its mysteries.
Celestial Suppression, which condensed all the wisdom of the Yuan Clan, focused solely on physical strength, with vital energy, mind, and soul all aimed at enhancing physical power.
In a sense, it was very similar to Chen Fei’s Indestructible Vision, though the latter was not as extreme.
Celestial Suppression was extreme, but its extreme nature meant that once fully mastered, its power would reach its zenith.
Even now, drawing out just a portion increased Chen Fei’s combat strength.
Chen Fei slightly lifted his eyelids, took a step forward, and slashed forward with his Qianyuan Sword.
It was as if the heavens themselves were gathering and twisting on the sword’s edge; with one strike, the world was severed.
The massive Eternal Night Sword accompanied the Qianyuan Sword in its slash, landing on Chen Fei’s left side. At that moment, Tan Dongyuan’s figure appeared, seemingly colliding with the Eternal Night Sword on purpose.
Tan Dongyuan furrowed his brow. He did not expect Chen Fei to see through his movements completely.
Talented individuals who fight beyond their level are formidable, with unlimited potential starting from the mid-Sixth Stage Rule Integration Realm.
But despite their potential being less than Chen Fei’s, in normal circumstances, their overall abilities, especially in the comprehension of techniques, would surpass Chen Fei’s.
However, the profundity displayed by Chen Fei in this sword was something Tan Dongyuan could not understand.
Tan Dongyuan knew Chen Fei had practiced the Human Emperor’s legacy, but they did not expect Chen Fei to have cultivated it to such a degree.
“Seal!”
Tan Dongyuan uttered a low command, and a mountain appeared in front of him.
Moonlight Mountain!
A perilous and highly renowned site among the Gui Clan, Tan Dongyuan’s technique was based on visualizing and consolidating this mountain.
Compared to other techniques, visualizing a legendary spectacle like Moonlight Mountain made Tan Dongyuan’s technique appear less advanced.
However, since Moonlight Mountain truly existed and Tan Dongyuan frequently visited it for observation, he had developed a profound understanding of the mountain.
This allowed Tan Dongyuan to project the mountain he had conjured as if he had actually transported Moonlight Mountain from the Gui Clan’s territory to this location.
Chilling! Majestic! Unyielding!
Several conflicting yet merging auras surged toward Chen Fei, assaulting his soul.
After Tan Dongyuan materialized Moonlight Mountain, Wang Feng and the other three appeared around Chen Fei, launching a relentless barrage of attacks.
Tan Dongyuan’s primary goal was to draw Chen Fei’s attention, creating an opportunity for the other four to attack.
At this moment, Moonlight Mountain emitted a terrifying gravitational force, enveloping the Eternal Night Manifestation. Any attempt by Chen Fei to redirect his attacks would be absorbed by the mountain.
A simple yet extremely effective siege strategy.
Although Tan Dongyuan and his team seemed to underestimate Chen Fei, they were actually very cautious, attacking with all their might.
They aimed not to capture Chen Fei alive but to kill him on the spot.
Despite the higher rewards for capturing him alive, it would be more restrictive, so they chose to kill him quickly and retreat.
Chen Fei sensed the four attacks around him, his expression unchanged. The Concealment Bell flew out, covering him from above, while his Qianyuan Sword continued to slash at Tan Dongyuan.
Tan Dongyuan, with a serious expression, pushed his vital energy to its limit, making Moonlight Mountain even more realistic. Its eerie aura even began to slightly distort the rules of the Boundless Sea.
“Boom!”
Wang Feng and the others’ attacks instantly overturned the Concealment Bell, causing cracks to appear on the bell’s surface.
Yet, being a mystical treasure, even though it was only a low-grade one, it caused Wang Feng and his team’s attacks to momentarily stall, and that moment was entirely sufficient for Chen Fei.
Within the spatial rift, an attack merged into the Eternal Night Sword.
The black light on the Eternal Night Sword grew even more profound. The next moment, the sword struck Moonlight Mountain.
The entire void rippled, with a wave spreading from the point of impact between the Eternal Night Sword and Moonlight Mountain.
Tan Dongyuan’s serious expression changed drastically. Before he could make any other adjustments, the blade of the Eternal Night Sword had already cleaved through Moonlight Mountain, heading straight toward him.
The Eternal Night Sword spun with the force of the cosmos, leaving Tan Dongyuan no chance of escape. The only thing he could do was shield himself with his Earth Demon Claw.
When the Eternal Night Sword struck the Earth Demon Claw, it cut through without the slightest hesitation, directly cleaving Tan Dongyuan’s body in half.
Tan Dongyuan’s eyes widened. The powerful vitality of the Sun Moon Realm allowed him to linger for a moment, but he quickly realized the gravity of his situation.
As a peak Sun Moon Realm cultivator, even after dissipating his origin, he should not have been so easily defeated. What went wrong?
Tan Dongyuan’s last sight was of Wang Feng and the others’ attacks finally hitting Chen Fei, but he could not see the outcome.
The violent force tore him apart, extinguishing his life completely, leaving no trace behind.
The shield on the surface of the Eternal Night Manifestation trembled violently. Chen Fei’s essence, spirit, and soul rapidly decreased to forty percent.
Chen Fei’s brow furrowed. If there had been two more attackers, he would have been overwhelmed.
Unfortunately for them, there were only four.
Chen Fei activated the Desolate Slaughter Night Star Sword, drawing vast amounts of elemental energy from the void, which quickly restored his essence, spirit, and soul to seventy percent.
The proficiency of the Desolate Slaughter Night Star Sword was still somewhat lacking. If it had reached perfection, a single activation might have fully restored his essence, spirit, and soul.
But for dealing with Wang Feng and the others, it was already sufficient.
Tan Dongyuan’s swift and overwhelming death had startled Wang Feng and the others. They were struck by the fact that their combined attack had done nothing to Chen Fei.
There were no signs of injury; it was as if their attacks had been mere illusions.
“Kill!”
Wang Feng roared in fury and swung his blade at Chen Fei. At this moment, if they fled, they might escape the Boundless Sea.
But Wang Feng could not believe that Chen Fei was truly this powerful.
No matter how monstrous, he was still in the mid Sun Moon Realm. Chen Fei’s apparent lack of injury must have been due to some external means of defense.
Liu Gong and the others hesitated briefly but decided against fleeing. With another roar, they launched another attack on Chen Fei.
Chen Fei turned his gaze toward Wang Feng, his figure flickering as he appeared in front of Wang Feng and struck with his sword.
The blade of the Eternal Night Sword twisted the cosmos, firmly locking onto Wang Feng’s figure. As the sword’s edge descended, the final blade light from the spatial rift integrated into the Eternal Night Sword.
The sword’s edge surged once more. Wang Feng sensed something was wrong and began to understand the cause of Tan Dongyuan’s death.
However, at this moment, Wang Feng could not evade the attack. He could only brace himself, employing forbidden techniques, and desperately slashed at Chen Fei.
The Eternal Night Sword and Wang Feng’s Soul Devouring Knife clashed silently. The Eternal Night Sword pressed down without pausing, cleaving through Wang Feng’s body.
Liu Gong and the others’ attacks hit the Eternal Night Manifestation again, causing it to tremble, but it remained intact. Wang Feng’s body, however, was shattered into blood and mist by his own Soul Devouring Knife.
Until his death, Wang Feng’s gaze held a trace of unwillingness.
This time, Liu Gong and the others’ expressions changed significantly. Without a word, they immediately fled toward the void beyond the Boundless Sea.
