“Oh, it had been wounded its source before, and it hasn’t fully recovered yet.”
Chen Fei noticed the expressions of the three individuals and realized he had spoken a bit too quickly, so he added with a smile.
Though in Chen Fei’s mind, Nie Li did seem somewhat weakened now, considering the current strength of Min Yanlu and the other two, it seemed like Nie Li was still on par.
Nie Li’s injuries had naturally long been fully healed, but Chen Fei indeed had no intention of letting Nie Li go to the Thousand Feathers Alliance.
Firstly, Primordial Sword Sect needed a Fourth-Tier strength to stay behind, and Chen Fei’s clone naturally could, but once a high-intensity battle broke out, Chen Fei might need to summon the clone to share the burden.
At that time, if Primordial Sword Sect lacked sufficient strength to defend, it would be better to let Nie Li stay directly.
Nowadays, Nie Li’s significance to Chen Fei was that in high-intensity battles, Nie Li couldn’t help.
In low-intensity ones, Chen Fei could handle it with just one sword, whether
Nie Li was present or not, the outcome would be the same.
“Not fully recovered yet?” Min Yanlu furrowed his brows slightly.
The last time they came here happened to be when Nie Li first settled in Thousand Geese City, and at that time, Nie Li was indeed still seriously injured. Several years had pa.s.sed, and it still hadn’t fully recovered?
“But if that’s the case, we’ll be short of one when facing the Monster King,” Yan Yinwen furrowed his brows.
The power of the Monster King, not to mention being stronger than the same level of the Mountain Sea Realm, is indeed difficult to deal with.
Before Yan Yinwen came to Thousand Geese City, Min Yanlu had mentioned that Chen Fei’s strength was very strong, even rescuing him under the siege of two Mountain Sea Realm experts.
But being strong doesn’t mean you can ignore your opponent; having an additional Monster King-level combatant is ultimately advantageous without harm.
“How about bringing Nie Li along? Even if it’s just reconnaissance, it would be good,” suggested Master Haiyue.
“If needed, I will summon my clone,” Chen Fei murmured softly.
“Clone?”
Yan Yinwen furrowed his brows even tighter. Although he knew Chen Fei was very powerful, it seemed a bit excessive to send a clone for reconnaissance in battles between peers.
Being cautious in such battles was never too much.
Min Yanlu also looked at Chen Fei in puzzlement. Just as he was about to speak, subtle fluctuations emanated from behind Chen Fei, followed by a figure stepping forward.
“Hum!”
The aura of the Mountain Sea Realm emanated from Chen Fei’s clone, as it displayed the Slaughter Spirit Technique. At this moment, the realm revealed by the clone was only at the level of one Divine Palace.
But as they looked at Chen Fei’s clone, the eyes of Min Yanlu and the others couldn’t help but widen slightly.
A Mountain Sea Realm clone?
Min Yanlu and the others continuously observed between Chen Fei’s main body and the clone. The aura and soul fluctuations were completely identical, indicating it was indeed a clone, not the real person.
“I gained some insights while contemplating the techniques recently,” Chen Fei said with a smile as he saw the expressions of the three.
“With the clone accompanying us, it should be sufficient to deal with those five Monster Kings.”
“It should be fine.”
Min Yanlu opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he just echoed Chen Fei’s words. The surprise in Min Yanlu’s heart was too great at this moment.
After a moment, the three settled in at the Primordial Sword Sect, while Chen Fei found Qu Qingsheng and arranged matters for the Primordial Sword Sect. “That person really came from your Thousand Feathers Alliance, and a few years ago, he was only in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm?”
In the courtyard, Yan Yinwen looked at Min Yanlu and couldn’t help but ask.
To have just broken through to the Mountain Sea Realm and possess such strength was one thing, but to also have a clone with Mountain Sea Realm strength, was this something that ordinary Mountain Sea Realm warriors could have?
The advantages of clones were actually well known to everyone. If one could cultivate a clone to the same level as oneself, that would have been even better.
Therefore, on the Middle Continent, many top powers actually possessed clone techniques. Due to years of research and development, those clone techniques could even cultivate clones at the level of the Mountain Sea Realm.
However, all clone techniques had an unavoidable problem: the extremely high difficulty of cultivation.
Ordinarily, cultivating a primary technique already required expending all one’s energy. Adding a clone technique on top of that made it extremely difficult to allocate energy.
So, was there a mixed technique that not only improved cultivation and strength but also allowed for the creation of Mountain Sea Realm clones?
Yes, there was!
But such mixed techniques had even higher requirements for pract.i.tioners. Truly mastering them was rare, as those who reached the peak of cultivation were few and far between.
Moreover, since it was a mixed technique, even though it considered factors like combat power, it still fell short of those lineages that specialized solely in combat power, which was somewhat awkward.
Only those true geniuses had the time and energy to cultivate these clone techniques.
It was rumored that in some of the sacred places, some clone techniques could cultivate clones up to the late stages of the Mountain Sea Realm, which was quite astonishing.
“Yes, he indeed comes from our Thousand Feathers Alliance,” Min Yanlu replied somewhat absentmindedly to Yan Yinwen’s question.
If those Monster Kings had attacked the Thousand Feathers Alliance just ten years later, Chen Fei would probably have already broken through to the Mountain Sea Realm by then.
Then, the Thousand Feathers Alliance wouldn’t have had to suffer such a great calamity.
The next morning, Chen Fei and the other four left Thousand Geese City and flew towards the direction of the Thousand Feathers Alliance.
Yan Yinwen had originally wanted to take another look at Chen Fei’s clone, but he found that Chen Fei’s clone hadn’t appeared, which made him feel a bit regretful.
After thinking for a while yesterday, Yan Yinwen had already regarded Chen Fei as an unparalleled genius.
He wasn’t sure if Chen Fei’s talent could match those geniuses from the sacred places, but even if there was a difference, it shouldn’t be too significant.
The only regret was that with such talent, without entering a sacred place, Chen Fei’s future would be much more challenging and distant than it could be.
Now, without the resources provided by a sacred place, without techniques, without spiritual materials, everything had to rely solely on oneself.
Even with extraordinary talent, the path of cultivation in the future would always be somewhat rough. Without a strong background, even if one knew about extraordinary opportunities in certain places, they probably wouldn’t dare to partic.i.p.ate.
Otherwise, if they encountered a strong opponent who didn’t like them, they would probably have been killed casually.
But regardless, for someone with such outstanding talent, it was wise to make friends and establish a good relationship, which could be considered a form of insurance for the future.
If there was ever a need for help in the future, it was good to have someone to turn to.
Thousand Geese City was nearly a hundred thousand miles away from the Thousand Feathers Alliance. Previously, Chen Fei had crossed the seas with the Primordial Sword Sect, which had served as a practical measurement.
At that time, the entire fleet had taken several months to reach Thousand Geese City, facing numerous hardships.
However, with the speed of the Mountain Sea Realm then, it naturally wouldn’t have taken that long. Traveling at their normal flying speed, the four of them had spent two days and finally arrived at the bordering maritime area of the Thousand Feathers Alliance.
There had been no obstacles along the way. Occasionally, they had sensed the aura of Monster Kings, but as soon as those Monster Kings had perceived the four Mountain Sea Realm experts on Chen Fei’s side, they had all avoided them from afar.
The closer they had gotten to the Thousand Feathers Alliance, the more Chen Fei had been able to sense subtle changes in the natural aura.
It had been a bit less lively, and there had also been a noticeable difference in its density.
For martial artists, undoubtedly, the cultivation environment like that on the Middle Continent had been more conducive to breakthroughs.
Upon seeing the bordering maritime area of the Thousand Feathers Alliance, Min Yanlu’s gaze fluctuated intensely.
Over the past few years, Min Yanlu had managed to barely recover from his injuries through various methods, but the upward potential he once had was completely lost.
For the Thousand Feathers Alliance, Min Yanlu was more inclined to drive away those Monster Kings, so that the humans within the Thousand Feathers Alliance would no longer be treated like cattle and sheep.
“Those five Monster Kings are worried about being individually attacked, so they almost always gather together. According to the reports from our scouts, they should all be there now due to the collapse of the altar.”
Min Yanlu said, calming his emotions and turning to Chen Fei.
The success of this battle depended crucially on Chen Fei, and Min Yanlu was very clear about this.
“Then let’s go straight there,” Chen Fei nodded.
Three hours later, Min Yanlu and his companions had already crossed the entire Thousand Feathers Alliance.
Although they had some psychological expectations for the current plight of the Thousand Feathers Alliance, knowing that the population had inevitably declined sharply and that the people were living in dire straits under the rule of the demonic beasts for these years.
But seeing the current plight of the Thousand Feathers Alliance still made their hearts heavy.
After all, they were all humans, and it was distressing to see their kind suffer!
Many cities had long disappeared, leaving only ruins. Only some large cities still existed, but within these cities, everyone seemed numb and indifferent.
Deformed, barely maintained, a slight touch could cause it to crumble.
Flying over an island, Chen Fei suddenly looked down.
This was the Primordial Water Island, where the Primordial Sword Sect and the Sunken Water Pavilion had once settled.
Even now on Primordial Water Island, the buildings of the original mountain gate could still be seen.
However, over the years, these buildings had deteriorated significantly, with some mountain peaks even collapsing directly.
“Is there anything special about that island?” Yan Yinwen asked, seeing Chen Fei staring down.
“The Primordial Sword Sect once established a mountain gate here,” Chen Fei murmured softly.
“Down there?”
Hearing Chen Fei’s words, Yan Yinwen looked at Primordial Water Island below with some surprise, as did Min Yanlu and Master Haiyue.
Such a barren environment!
Min Yanlu’s knowledge of Chen Fei began on the Middle Continent. Although he had collected a lot of information about Chen Fei at the time, because he was no longer in the Thousand Feathers Alliance, he had at most only gathered information about Chen Fei in the Sea Peak City.
Before the Sea Peak City, it couldn’t be said to be a blank slate, but it was indeed very little known.
After flying a distance further, Min Yanlu and his companions couldn’t help but slow down, because the auras of the five Monster Kings had become clearly visible.
Only Chen Fei continued flying forward at the original speed.
Seeing Chen Fei not slowing down, Min Yanlu and his companions increased their speed to catch up.
“When we hold off four of the Monster Kings later, we’U need your help, Chen Fei, to quickly kill one!” Min Yanlu said, looking at Chen Fei.
Having witnessed Chen Fei’s strength, Min Yanlu knew that Chen Fei could do it.
“Okay!” Chen Fei nodded without objection.
“Roar!”
A loud roar suddenly came from ahead, and Min Yanlu and his companions could sense the auras of the Monster Kings. Naturally, these Monster Kings had also noticed Min Yanlu’s group.
The crucial point was that all five Monster Kings recognized the auras of Min Yanlu and Master Haiyue.
Weren’t these the two Mountain Sea Realm experts who had fled in panic after being attacked by them? Yet here they were, back again, and they even brought two unfamiliar Mountain Sea Realm initiates with them. They truly didn’t know the meaning of death!
The distance between the two sides began to close, both accelerating.
“Roar!”
Suddenly, another roar echoed into the sky, and the unfamiliar aura of another Monster King burst out.
On the opposite side were not five Monster Kings, but six, and this new Monster King had an extremely majestic aura, at the peak of the early Fourth- Tier, much stronger than the other five Monster Kings.
Min Yanlu and his companions’ faces changed slightly. With the three of them plus Chen Fei’s clone holding off four Monster Kings, there wouldn’t be a problem. But if they had to hold off five Monster Kings, accidents were likely to occur.
Because the strength of the clone was far inferior to that of the main body, this was an acknowledged fact, and it wouldn’t hold out for long if the time was prolonged.
The margin for error was too low, which required Chen Fei to kill one Monster King in an extremely short time.
But Monster Kings had tough skin and were much harder to kill than humans.
“Chen Fei, we…”
Min Yanlu looked at Chen Fei, about to speak, when suddenly two violent auras soared up again, and there were two more Monster Kings, one of which was also at the peak of the early Fourth-Tier.
Eight Monster Kings, two at the peak of the early Fourth-Tier!
The faces of Yan Yinwen and his companions turned pale instantly. Min Yanlu wanted to reach out and pull Chen Fei away to escape from here!
“It’s fine, we can fight!”
Chen Fei’s voice floated into the ears of Min Yanlu and his companions.
