Chapter 875: Kill Through
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The spatial rift tore apart everything around it, and Gu Jijiang’s figure had disappeared, directly swallowed by the rift, leaving no trace of life.
Chen Fei sheathed the Concealment Sword and dispersed the state of the Sword Dominates the Galaxy.
The combined power of the Nine Star Chain and Sword Dominates the Galaxy was formidable, but it was quite taxing on Chen Fei’s vital energy, mental focus, and soul. It wasn’t necessary to maintain it continuously.
Killing Gu Jijiang without the Sword Dominates the Galaxy was also within Chen Fei’s capabilities, though it would take more time.
Given the situation, a simple strike would suffice.
“We won!”
On the side of the Boundless Sea, there was a tremendous cheer, just like
before.
Like a crushing force, unstoppable and overwhelming.
The prodigy from a thousand years ago seemed to have been reduced to a mere mid-stage Mountain Sea Realm warrior in Chen Fei’s hands.
But everyone knew that it wasn’t that Gu Jijiang was weak; rather, Chen Fei was too strong. So strong that even a prodigy from a thousand years ago couldn’t withstand his sharp edge.
Zhan Xuming looked at the spot where Gu Jijiang had vanished and sighed slightly.
Zhan Xuming knew that Gu Jijiang had died a thousand years ago. What just appeared was merely a remnant soul pieced together; it wasn’t the real Gu Jijiang.
Still, it was somewhat bittersweet.
On the side of Shadow Island, everyone was silent as they watched the slowly
dissipating sword mark.
Such spatial rifts could be created by several people from Shadow Island, but they were all in the late or peak Fourth Rank.
As someone standing at the pinnacle of the Fourth Rank, possessing such offensive power was only natural; otherwise, they wouldn’t be here.
But Chen Fei of the Boundless Sea was only at the mid-stage of the Fourth Rank. Despite the profoundness of his cultivation method, he shouldn’t have been able to unleash such terrifying power.
She Qiu, who had earlier claimed he could kill Chen Fei, now looked extremely grave.
If it had been him facing that sword just now, She Qiu couldn’t think of any way to block it directly. The only option would be to dodge and avoid the sword s edge.
The result of taking it head-on would be like Gu Jijiang’s-being directly slain and then devoured by the spatial rift.
“Battle isn’t about who has the stronger attack and who wins. If it were that simple, we could just set up a testing pillar and let everyone take a shot.” She Qianling turned to the people of Shadow Island and said solemnly, “There are many factors that determine the final outcome. Think more and use your brains to fight!”
Although She Qianling’s voice was not loud, it resonated like a heavy bell, vibrating in the hearts of the people of Shadow Island.
Many who had been frowning relaxed a little, their tense expressions softening. In battle, attack power is crucial, as killing relies on it. However, attack power is not the decisive factor.
Chen Fei of the Boundless Sea was very strong, but they still had opportunities. Previously, they were more shocked by the spatial rift.
On the side of Black Divine, there had been no verbal exchanges since their appearance, and it remained the same.
Only Black Divine, with his crimson eyes, scrutinized Chen Fei, his gaze flickering.
Zhu Xiaowen looked up at Chen Fei, ready to take over and enter the arena.
Sensing Zhu Xiaowen’s gaze, Chen Fei turned and waved his hand.
This was just the beginning; he intended to continue fighting!
Zhu Xiaowen was taken aback and looked back at the various Sacred Masters
and Monster Emperors.
Pang Changping and the others frowned slightly. Although Chen Fei wasn’t injured, such a life-and-death struggle was extremely taxing on his energy.
A moment’s carelessness could lead to death, requiring full concentration at all times.
However, sensing Chen Fei’s condition, it seemed there was indeed no problem. Pang Changping and the others exchanged glances, seemingly reluctant to force Chen Fei to withdraw.
In the central hall of the Sacred City, many people looked at Chen Fei, who had not retreated, with a hint of puzzlement.
“Brother Chen, why don’t you take a rest?” Si Yinan asked with concern.
Si Yuanhai did not reply, as battles of this level were too distant for him.
At the Mortal Combat venue.
“Arrogant and conceited, I’ll deal with him!
On the Shadow Island side, Chi Runsheng stepped forward and looked at She
Qianling.
Whether it was early or late, he would have to enter the arena eventually. Since he dared to partic.i.p.ate in the Mortal Combat, he was already prepared for death.
Chen Fei was strong, but as She Qianling had said earlier, there were many factors influencing the outcome of the battle. By exploiting his strengths and targeting his opponent’s weaknesses, there was a chance to win!
“Go ahead, but don’t force it!”
She Qianling looked at Chi Runsheng, thought for a moment, and said solemnly.
“Understood!” Chi Runsheng cupped his hands, and his figure flickered, already appearing in the arena.
” Fighting two rounds without withdrawing, are you planning to kill ten people?” Chi Runsheng shouted from several miles away.
“If the opportunity arises, I do want to try that.” Chen Fei smiled slightly, not denying it.
In this life-and-death struggle, there was no need to hide such things.
Chi Runsheng’s side looked at Chen Fei with cold eyes.
Did he really thinkhe was invincible at the mid-stage of the Fourth Rank? “Good! I want to see howyou plan to kill through us!” Chi Runsheng laughed loudly, and his figure instantly vanished from the spot.
“You might not see it.” Chen Fei shook his head slightly.
Chi Runsheng did not appear in front of Chen Fei; in fact, his figure vanished from the entire arena.
Only a wind began to swirl on the field, visibly growing stronger.
Wind is formless, and clouds are unpredictable!
At this moment, Chi Runsheng had transformed into a wind. Although he had not entered the spatial rift, truly capturing his figure was extremely difficult.
And this difficulty seemed to increase with time.
Zhu Xiaowen stood off the field, his eyes fixed on the arena.
Despite Chen Fei’s tendency to sweep through his opponents, Zhu Xiaowen remained ready to step in at any moment.
Thus, Zhu Xiaowen observed each opponent carefully and put himself in their shoes, thinking about how to respond to such opponents.
Seeing Chi Runsheng’s display of movement skills, Zhu Xiaowen frowned. His own movement skills were inferior, and even his sensing seemed to fall behind as time pa.s.sed.
Zhu Xiaowen looked at Chen Fei with some confusion, not understanding why Chen Fei allowed Chi Runsheng’s movement skills to keep accelerating.
Even if confident, it didn’t seem necessary.
“Whoosh!”
Several formless waves swept toward Chen Fei, who avoided them as if strolling in a garden.
Not a bit more, not a bit less, Chen Fei dodged all attacks by the narrowest margins.
If the attacks were too dense, requiring Chen Fei to move significantly, he simply raised the Concealment Sword to shatter them.
Chi Runsheng was several miles away, curving around and daring not to get too close.
However, seeing Chen Fei effortlessly break his attacks made Chi Runsheng s brows furrow tightly.
At such a distance, no matter how concealed the attack, it would always be perceived.
Chi Runsheng had long-range attack capabilities, but he was not particularly skilled in this area. His primary weapon was the Shadow Dance Dagger, excelling in close combat, which, combined with his wind-hke movement skills, brought out his full combat power.
But Chen Fei’s close-combat power was so strong that Chi Runsheng dared not approach.
After several waves of attacks failed, Chi Runsheng stopped and glared at Chen
Fei with a grim expression.
“Is this how you kill through our remaining people? Standing still, being a turtle, and getting beaten up by me!”
Chi Runsheng’s voice suddenly echoed across the arena, filled with mockery and sarcasm.
“Such talk seems somewhat petty,” Chen Fei said with a smile.
“Petty? If you have the ability, come and kill me! I’m right here-can you kill me? Arrogant and full of empty bravado, it’s ridiculous!”
Chi Runsheng’s sharp voice resonated around and spread outside the arena.
Chen Fei’s eyelids flickered as he looked directly at Chi Runsheng’s current location, even meeting Chi Runsheng’s gaze.
Chi Runsheng’s face showed a hint of panic. How could the opponent capture his position so clearly?
Chi Runsheng instinctively quickened his pace, deviating from his original position, but saw Chen Fei slash toward him from behind.
The panic on Chi Runsheng’s face disappeared, and his expression became solemn again.
“Boom!”
A figure appeared behind Chen Fei-Chi Runsheng. Unable to stab Chen Fei with the Shadow Dance Dagger in time, he had no choice but to block with it.
But the power contained in the Concealment Sword was too overwhelming for Chi Runsheng to handle. His entire body exploded into fragments and then dissipated into the surrounding energy.
Chen Fei extended his right hand, capturing a trace of energy. Following the faint sense of that energy, his body lost its weight and suddenly appeared in a corner fifty miles away.
The tracking method created by the Heavenly Daoist, “Trace and Pursue,” combined with the Extreme Sky Steps, allowed for instantaneous movement.
A ma.s.sive spatial rift was sliced out from beneath the Concealment Sword’s blade. A figure, panicked and fleeing, emerged-Chi Runsheng.
But Chen Fei’s sudden appearance left Chi Runsheng no time to evade. He could only scream in fury, holding the Shadow Dance Dagger in front of him.
“Boom!”
The Shadow Dance Dagger was deflected, and Chi Runsheng spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale instantly.
“Is it still laughable now?” Chen Fei asked, slashing again.
Chi Runsheng looked up, glaring fiercely at Chen Fei, but his pale face and disordered aura made his anger seem superficial.
“Boom!”
In a m.u.f.fled sound, Chi Runsheng’s internal organs shattered, and blood began to flow from his seven orifices.
“Now who is the turtle taking a beating?” Chen Fei asked calmly.
“Ah, someone will avenge me!” Chi Runsheng roared, regardless of the situation, stabbing the Shadow Dance Dagger at Chen Fei.
“Whoosh!”
Chi Runsheng split in two, blood mist exploding, but was soon swallowed by the spatial rift.
Several figures of Chi Runsheng appeared miles away but ultimately dissipated with the wind.
