“The Dragon Elephant! You’re using Suppressing Dragon Elephant!”
Before death, one seemed to be able to review one’s entire life. This was because the fear of death stimulated the mind and soul, elongating the dimensions of time.
As the sword edge swept towards him, in a flash of enlightenment, Tu Zaichuan suddenly remembered where he had seen a similar technique before and shouted out loud.
Chen Fei’s expression shifted slightly, and the sweeping sword edge flipped over, slamming the blade against Tu Zaichuan’s forehead.
The tremendous force instantly tore open Tu Zaichuan’s scalp, revealing the skull beneath, which was then deformed by the pressure of the sword blade, creating a depression.
“Bang!”
Tu Zaichuan was knocked down without any resistance, his entire head thoroughly deformed, blood continuously flowing from his seven orifices as he fell unconscious on the ground.
Such injuries would have been unbearable for warriors in other realms.
However, the body of the Mountain Sea Realm expert had undergone transformation. Even if only a breath remained, it would instinctively draw upon the surrounding heaven and earth energy to restore itself, keeping that breath alive.
Moreover, given enough time, such injuries still held hope of gradual recovery.
Chen Fei’s right hand moved, and Tu Zaichuan’s body was sucked into Chen Fei’s palm. With a leap, Chen Fei arrived in front of Min Yanlu, casually tossing Tu Zaichuan onto the ground.
“Please keep an eye on him for a moment. I’ll be back soon,” Chen Fei said softly.
“Alright! Take care!”
Min Yanlu nodded, increasingly unable to fathom Chen Fei.
Gu Danying looked at Tu Zaichuan’s miserable state on the ground and couldn’t help but grimace. It was too pitiful. Compared to Tu Zaichuan, Gu Danying suddenly realized that his own injuries didn’t seem so severe.
Chen Fei smiled faintly, then took a step forward and instantly disappeared from the spot.
“Teleportation!”
Min Yanlu’s eyes flickered as he watched Chen Fei vanish.
Min Yanlu’s own innate talent, the Void Traces, actually bore some resemblance to teleportation, both involving movement within the shallow layers of the void.
The difference was that Min Yanlu could only allow a portion of his attacks to traverse the shallow layers of the void, while Chen Fei could merge his entire body into the void.
In Min Yanlu’s plans, if there was an opportunity to break through to the midlevel of the Mountain Sea Realm in the future and choose new talents, teleportation would be among Min Yanlu’s options.
Of course, this depended on luck. It was rare for a warrior to encounter such a talent.
But Min Yanlu, because of his Void Traces, had a slightly greater chance compared to other warriors, given the attraction of two similar talents.
In mid-air, Chen Fei consecutively performed three teleports and finally spotted Fei Boyong’s figure.
In just this short period, Fei Boyong had managed to flee nearly two hundred miles.
As if sensing the gaze upon him, Fei Boyong instinctively turned his head and caught sight of Chen Fei’s figure.
Fei Boyong’s soul trembled with fear as he desperately unleashed his fleeing technique, flying towards the distance.
Ethereal Escape!
Ethereal Escape, a technique Fei Boyong practiced in the Mountain Sea Realm, had a name somewhat similar to a technique from the Primordial Sword Sect, but in terms of effectiveness, they were worlds apart, incomparable.
Mastering Ethereal Escape to a profound level, although unable to traverse the void like teleportation, could already harness a hint of the void’s power to multiply one’s speed.
Ethereal Escape lacked some of the agility of Tu Zaichuan’s footwork but excelled in extreme speed.
Relying on this technique, Fei Boyong had escaped danger numerous times, but unfortunately, today he encountered teleportation.
Fei Boyong crazily burned his own soul, continuously elevating his speed.
Facing a direct confrontation with Chen Fei, Fei Boyong no longer had the courage. Tu Zaichuan’s actions just now had already informed Fei Boyong that all resistance was futile.
Fei Boyong couldn’t comprehend why Chen Fei’s power fluctuated so unpredictably. He speculated it must have been due to some technique, but regardless, Fei Boyong knew he couldn’t win.
Now, all he could do was run. As long as he escaped Chen Fei’s sight, he would have hope of survival.
Chen Fei watched Fei Boyong’s figure, then stepped back with his right foot. Countless ripples spread from the sole of his shoe, and the next moment, Chen Fei appeared in front of Fei Boyong.
Fei Boyong quickly shifted his body, preemptively changing direction and flashing past Chen Fei from dozens of steps away.
Ethereal Escape, borrowing from the void, naturally allowed for a slight perception of the void’s fluctuations.
At this moment, Fei Boyong, in a state of burning his soul, had reached the peak of his perception of the void, thus sensing the slight tremor in the void ahead and evading it in advance.
Chen Fei looked at Fei Boyong somewhat unexpectedly, carefully observing the technique Fei Boyong was using, and a hint of realization flashed in his eyes, realizing where he had been discovered.
The next moment, Chen Fei disappeared again.
Fei Boyong’s mind remained locked on Chen Fei, sensing Chen Fei’s disappearance. Fei Boyong quickly observed the changes in the surrounding void, using it to preemptively evade Chen Fei’s attacks.
However, the void at this moment was as calm as water, without the slightest anomaly.
A sense of unease enveloped Fei Boyong’s heart. He hadn’t yet figured out where Chen Fei had gone when suddenly a sword edge swept towards him.
Fei Boyong’s eyes widened in an instant. When did the opponent arrive beside him?
Why was there no change in the void at all?
If even this slight void fluctuation couldn’t be concealed, then Chen Fei’s talent in the Great Completion of teleportation would have been in vain.
Fei Boyong didn’t have time to do anything else and could only desperately block with his Overturning Sea Blade.
“Boom!”
Amidst the explosion, Fei Boyong was sent flying backward. He had prepared himself for his body to be torn apart, but he found that his injuries had only worsened slightly.
A hint of confusion appeared in Fei Boyong’s eyes as he suddenly remembered the message Tu Zaichuan had sent him earlier. Wasn’t the situation just like what he was facing now?
So, was this intentional? To make him think there was still a chance to resist, only to realize in the end that it was all an illusion?
Kill with a clear conscience?
Fei Boyong didn’t lookback, desperately fleeing towards the distance.
Chen Fei’s brows furrowed slightly. Fei Boyong had just defended with all his might and intentionally used Chen Fei’s power to escape, so Chen Fei didn’t feel any recoil from that strike.
Without recoil, it was naturally impossible for the power to be a.s.similated into his body.
Chen Fei’s ability to easily slay warriors of the same level in the Mountain Sea Realm relied on the fusion of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant’s unique power, which greatly exaggerated his explosive strength.
Therefore, what Chen Fei feared the least now was being surrounded and attacked.
As long as the received attacks did not exceed the limit, even the talent of Domain Suppression would be broken by him. In that case, Chen Fei would only become stronger with each battle. The more people surrounded him, the faster those attackers would die.
However, without the utilization of the unique power, without a.s.similation into his body, relying solely on Chen Fei’s current strength, although still much stronger than many in the early stages of the Mountain Sea Realm, it wouldn’t achieve that overwhelming dominance.
Especially against someone like Fei Boyong, who was solely focused on fleeing, and was even burning his soul to do so, it wasn’t easy to kill him in a short amount of time.
Of course, Fei Boyong would ultimately die because the soul couldn’t burn indefinitely, and he couldn’t escape the pursuit of teleportation.
Several miles away, on a vast lake, a figure sat cross-legged, in perfect harmony with heaven and man.
Seemingly sensing the movement ahead, the figure slowly opened its eyes and looked towards Fei Boyong, who appeared desperate.
Fei Boyong hadn’t noticed the figure beneath the lake, but as the figure opened its eyes, its presence suddenly became apparent.
Fei Boyong looked at the figure and felt a vague sense of familiarity. Then, he suddenly remembered someone, and joy spread across his face.
“Master, Master, please save me!”
Fei Boyong screamed in despair, sensing another sword edge sweeping towards him, he turned around to defend himself.
Amidst the explosion, Fei Boyong spurted out blood, but he finally managed to block the sword. In an instant, he crossed over a dozen miles and arrived behind the figure in the center of the lake.
“Master, please show mercy and save my life!”
Fei Boyong bowed deeply to Saint Xizhou and pleaded loudly, “That person chased me here because I stumbled upon him committing murder and robbery. I beg Master to uphold justice!”
“Are you lying to me?”
Saint Xizhou’s expression, originally calm, suddenly changed. A demeanor of authority rose from him, not born of anger but of inherent dignity.
Even though they were both in the early stages of the Mountain Sea Realm, with the appearance of this aura, Saint Xizhou’s presence instantly expanded, enveloping an area of several miles.
“It’s absolutely true. I hope Master will make a fair judgment!”
Fei Boyong looked at Saint Xizhou with sincerity in his eyes.
Saint Xizhou, always willing to help others and traveling far and wide, would intervene in any matter he found unacceptable.
Chen Fei’s figure flickered, arriving above the lake, where Saint Xizhou and Fei Boyong stood.
“Committing murder and robbery, and when discovered by others, you dare to chase them to this extent!” Saint Xizhou shouted angrily, glaring at Chen Fei.
“What murder and robbery?”
Chen Fei’s brows furrowed slightly. He had thought this person was Fei Boyong’s accomplice, but now it seemed otherwise.
“You’ve already been exposed. There’s no use in further sophistry!”
Saint Xizhou’s eyes widened as he looked at Chen Fei, his voice filled with anger. “Leave immediately, and don’t cause any more bloodshed, or else don’t blame me for subduing you!”
“What are you talking about? Are you even aware of what really transpired before asking me to leave?” Chen Fei’s brows tightened gradually.
Where did this inexplicable person come from?
Without understanding a situation, he was already interfering, forcibly playing the role of a good person.
What did this mean?
Sharing the benevolence of others to fulfill one’s own desire to help?
“You’ve inflicted such severe injuries on this person, and yet you think you’re in the right?” Saint Xizhou’s rebuke grew louder and louder, echoing like a bell throughout the surroundings.
“Ha!”
Chen Fei looked at Saint Xizhou seriously, then suddenly chuckled softly.
Chen Fei could tell that such a person was unreasonable. What the other party believed was considered fact, and they only heard what they wanted to hear. Everything else was just sophistry!
People were diverse, and there were many like this in the world. Chen Fei hadn’t expected to encounter one in the Mountain Sea Realm.
Perhaps it was their innate character, or maybe it was their technique, or even their innate talent in the Mountain Sea Realm.
But none of that mattered to Chen Fei!
With a lift of his eyelids, Chen Fei’s figure flashed and appeared behind Fei Boyong, thrusting a sword.
“How dare you!”
Saint Xizhou became furious. He had given Chen Fei a chance to leave, yet he dared to attack right in front of him. It was simply seeking death!
Like a shifting shadow, Saint Xizhou appeared in front of Fei Boyong, and his whole body suddenly radiated a dazzling light.
Innate Talent: Iron Skin and Bronze Bones!
Technique: Golden Peak Mountain Scripture!
Saint Xizhou formed hand seals with both hands and then pushed out a palm. Behind Saint Xizhou, a towering mountain suddenly rose, reaching into the sky and dominating the land!
“Boom!”
The clash between the sword edge and Saint Xizhou’s palm peak resounded with a metallic distortion. The Qianyuan Sword emitted a twisted metallic sound, and a faint light radiated from Chen Fei’s body as his Domain Suppression talent was activated.
Within just one palm strike, Saint Xizhou had exceeded the limits of Chen Fei’s original physique.
Saint Xizhou didn’t send Chen Fei flying with a single palm, his expression somewhat surprised. In the early stages of the Mountain Sea Realm, unless it was someone like a Mountain Sea Realm expert who had condensed three Divine Palaces, few others could withstand a single palm from him.
No wonder he dared to commit murder and robbery, and even showed no remorse. Such a villain deserved punishment!
Saint Xizhou took a deep breath, and the illusion of the divine mountain behind him became clearer. He took a step forward and another palm pressed down towards Chen Fei.
The moment Saint Xizhou attacked, Fei Boyong desperately fled towards the distance.
Suddenly, a terrifying roar erupted from behind, causing Fei Boyong to instinctively turn around.
A dragon-like creature with an elephant’s body, covered in dragon scales, stood on six legs, treading through the void, with the sun and moon above its head.
And at that moment, as the Dragon Elephant’s six legs stomped, the divine mountain collapsed with a thunderous roar.
“Boom!”
A figure vomited blood, and their whole body, drenched in blood, was sent flying backward, crashing into the lake with a thunderous roar.
