Chapter 690: No Blood

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Watching Chen Fei step by step, deep within the Dream Shadow Cave, the Artifact spirit gazed coldly at Chen Fei. It wanted to witness this human being, vividly devoured by the Fourth-Tier Evil.

Chen Fei remained calm, the closer he got to the fissure, the more he could perceive the immense power of this Fourth-Tier Evil.

Humans, monsters, Evils, they occupied the mainstream forces of this world.

Humans were the most balanced, with no particularly outstanding traits, yet no weaknesses either. Their essence, energy, and spirit must all comprehensively develop to step into new realms.

Beasts possessed the strongest physique, but their minds and spirits were slightly unbalanced. Their minds and spirits were not weak, but rather coa.r.s.e, unable to control their powers with the precision of humans.

Evils suffered even more severe imbalances in their essence, energy, and spirit, yet their minds and spirits were the strongest among the three.

The Artifact spirit of the Dream Shadow Cave had observed Chen Fei for so long, and it had already discerned some clues.

This human possessed extraordinary talent, with a physique as strong as the vast seas and skies. What’s more astonis.h.i.+ng is his spirit; he likely can already manipulate a portion of it with ease.

The Dream Shadow Cave had existed for thousands of years, yet it had never encountered a Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivator like this before. However, being able to manipulate one’s own spirit, this level of spirit ultimately still remains within the Combined Aperture Tempering realm. Without establis.h.i.+ng a divine palace within the body for the spirit to reside, without undergoing transformation, the spirit simply cannot withstand the impact of the Evil’s power.

No matter how you look at it, facing a Fourth-Tier Evil, Chen Fei was undoubtedly doomed. Yet strangely, Chen Fei remained calm at this moment, so calm that the Artifact spirit couldn’t comprehend.

Step by step, Chen Fei faced the imposing aura of the Fourth-Tier Evil, this creature was uninjured, completely different from the Monster King. With Chen Fei’s current strength, indeed, he couldn’t withstand the opponent’s power.

To counter this Fourth-Tier Evil, only power of the same level could achieve it. As if sensing Chen Fei’s approach, agaze from within the crack fell upon him. Chen Fei’s steps couldn’t help but halt, in a trance, his vision lost all color, and everything disappeared rapidly. In an instant, Chen Fei couldn’t see anything at all.

Not only his eyes, but when the crack first appeared, chaotic murmurs filled Chen Fei’s ears. Now, not only were the murmurs absent, all sounds vanished, and the entire world fell into silence.

The sensation of his skin, the perception of his spirit, all of Chen Fei’s senses towards the outside world dissipated one by one under the gaze of this Fourth- Tier Evil.

In the eyes of this Fourth-Tier Evil, Chen Fei’s strength is not much greater than that of an ant, or at most, he could be considered a slightly stronger ant. The crack continued to widen as the Fourth-Tier Evil desperately burrowed into the depths of the Dream Shadow Cave. The entire cave trembled violently, and the primordial power of the Artifact spirit dissipated rapidly.

Outside the cave, thousands of people surrounding it looked on with confusion. A chilling presence seemed to drift out from the cave.

Illusions began to appear before the eyes of some pract.i.tioners at the Visceral Tempering realm, and their internal strength quietly dissipated, as if their bodies were about to be frozen stiff.

Even pract.i.tioners at the Combined Aperture Tempering realm felt discomfort in their spirits, a sense of unease quietly rising.

Inside the cave, Chen Fei stood in place, and behind him, a shadow of a dragon and elephant appeared in the void, roaring towards the sky, its sharp tusks seeming to pierce through the heavens.

Chen Fei’s lost senses began to return, but compared to before, it was like being covered with a layer of gauze, diminis.h.i.+ng the sharpness of his perception by several degrees.

With greenish-yellow skin, two bodies but fused lower limbs, sharing four legs, and four arms without palms, only sharp blades.

At this moment, half of the body had already squeezed into the crack, with the blade arms pressing against the edges, continuously enlarging the crack to allow the remaining half of the body to enter.

Chen Fei’s head tilted slightly upwards as he inserted the Qianyuan Sword into the ground, his right hand gripping the hilt, then lifting it slightly.

The black blade of the Extreme Profound Slaying Sword was pulled out by Chen Fei, causing his spirit to tremble violently. Dozens of the blades flew out from his sea of consciousness, merging into the Extreme Profound Slaying Sword.

The black on the blade of the Extreme Profound Slaying Sword grew even deeper. Chen Fei released his grip on the sword with his right hand, lifting his finger. In the next moment, a black sword aura, like a heavenly blade, slashed into the body of the Fourth-Tier Evil.

“Hiss!”

Like a hot knife through b.u.t.ter, the Fourth-Tier Evil instantly disintegrated where the sword aura pa.s.sed. However, corresponding to this, the sword aura only penetrated a few feet into the Evil’s body before being completely neutralized by its power.

And the wound on the Fourth-Tier Evil’s body almost completely healed in an instant, only losing some Yin energy.

Chen Fei’s sea of consciousness trembled violently. This was the result of a clash of spiritual powers.

After slaying hundreds of third-order Evils, Chen Fei’s sea of consciousness remained unaffected. But just a single exchange with a Fourth-Tier Evil caused Chen Fei’s sea of consciousness to sway, even with the Suppressing Dragon Elephant.

“Human, you are doomed to die!”

The Artifact spirit of the Dream Shadow Cave witnessed the scene before it, and laughter began to echo around.

Although it didn’t believe that Chen Fei could truly defeat the Fourth-Tier Evil, every time Chen Fei unexpectedly used his power to overcome its schemes, the Artifact spirit couldn’t help but worry that Chen Fei might have some other trick up his sleeve.

Now, seeing Chen Fei’s attack, which was like scratching an itch for the Fourth-Tier Evil, the Artifact spirit finally relaxed.

“Roar!”

Stuck in the crack, the Evil couldn’t dodge easily. When struck by Chen Fei at this moment, it let out a tremendous roar towards him.

Chen Fei’s previously calm sea of consciousness was once again shaken, a force attempting to tear his spirit apart completely. Not only his sea of consciousness but his spirit as well.

If his resistance were slightly weaker, he might have already fallen to his knees, unable to move.

Inside the Dream Shadow Cave, the environment was changing, and the Artifact spirit, besides maintaining the pa.s.sage, strengthened the barriers of the cave with all remaining power.

The Artifact spirit wasn’t worried that the Fourth-Tier Evil couldn’t cross over, but rather it aimed to extinguish any possibility of Chen Fei escaping from the cave.

It takes countless primordial energies to summon a Evil. How could the Artifact spirit allow this human to leave easily?

Having given the human the opportunity to leave just now, since he chose not to, then he shall never leave!

A beam of light radiated from Chen Fei’s forehead, scanning the surroundings, and he noticed the changes in the Dream Shadow Cave. Chen Fei’s gaze flickered, his right hand moved, and a bottle appeared in his hand.

The bottle was sealed with several seals, and Chen Fei threw it towards the crack.

As the seals on the bottle were lifted one by one, the next moment, a ma.s.s of green energy wafted out from it.

The green energy seemed ordinary, not even causing a ripple in the natural energies of the world. But with its appearance, both the Artifact spirit and the Evil sensed something unusual.

A sense of unease arose in the Artifact spirit’s heart, while the Evil, which had been struggling to squeeze through the crack just moments ago, suddenly froze in place.

As the green energy approached, the Evil’s large eyes narrowed, and as it drew closer, a sudden flood of fear surged within its heart.

The crack, which had been emitting rumbling sounds due to the Evil’s attempts to squeeze through, fell silent at this moment. Thus, the Fourth-Tier Evil, without any hesitation, retreated directly back into the Strange Heart Realm. Crossing from the Strange Heart Realm into the outside world is extremely difficult and requires expending the primordial essence of the Artifact spirit of the Dream Shadow Cave. However, returning requires no resistance at all.

This particular Evil didn’t even dare to attempt using its own cunning to push away the green energy.

Although it was only a small step away from entering the outside world, where its power could have grown even greater, it chose to give up this rare opportunity.

The green energy drifted along the crack and disappeared into the Strange Heart Realm, vanis.h.i.+ng from Chen Fei’s sight.

Chen Fei watched the scene before him with narrowed eyes.

When he originally separated the power of the Black Divine, Chen Fei had a feeling that this ma.s.s of green energy didn’t hold much interest for creatures at the Combined Aperture Tempering realm level.

After its separation, it remained quiet, seeming no different from ordinary natural energies.

On the other hand, Chen Fei had sensed the tremors of the Black Divine’s power in the jade bottle whenever he encountered creatures at the Mountain Sea Realm.

Releasing it this time, indeed, caused some disturbance in the Black Divine’s power.

In other words, if Chen Fei were to break through to the Mountain Sea Realm while still carrying this bottle of Black Divine’s power, he might even risk being corroded by it.

The Artifact spirit of the Dream Shadow Cave sensed the retreat of the Evil and was momentarily stunned. Due to the dispersal of its primordial essence, the power of the Artifact spirit had greatly weakened. It could perceive the strangeness of the green energy but couldn’t sense any deeper level of threat. On the contrary, the Evil, with its extremely sensitive spirit and soul, could detect the dreadfulness of the Black Divine’s energy. Once tainted by it, removing it would be extremely difficult, if not impossible.

This wasn’t like the Black Divine’s domain of the past, where there were seals that allowed the power of the Black Divine to be peeled off at a small cost. In the outside world, once tainted, it would likely require drastic measures, perhaps even severing one’s own body like a brave warrior to rid oneself of it.

Chen Fei looked at the crack and raised the Qianyuan Sword in his hand, striking out with a single slash.

A node on the crack shattered instantly, and the crack began to shrink.

The Artifact spirit was also unable to maintain a pa.s.sage of this scale any longer. In the pa.s.sage to the Strange Heart Realm, the influx of the Black Divine’s power had caused even the Fourth-Tier Evils in the vicinity to scatter.

Even if the Artifact spirit continued to deplete its primordial essence to maintain the pa.s.sage, it would be of no use.

With a wave of his right hand, Chen Fei collected the primordial essence of the third-order Evils in the Heart Refinement Formation in the distance into his spatial grid, then turned and looked towards the main hall ahead before his figure dissipated.

At this moment, there was no longer any obstruction between Chen Fei and the main hall, and even the barrier in front of the main hall dissipated along with the retreat of the Fourth-Tier Evils.

In other words, within the boundaries of the rules, the trials of the Dream Shadow Cave for the challengers had all come to an end.

Chen Fei had pa.s.sed all the trials, and he was qualified to enter the main hall and completely take control of the Dream Shadow Cave.

As the Artifact spirit watched Chen Fei rus.h.i.+ng towards the main hall, a violent tremor suddenly swept through the Dream Shadow Cave, and huge cracks began to appear on the peak.

“You want to become the master of this cave? Human, you are delusional!”

The Artifact spirit’s piercing roar echoed through the cave, and in the next moment, the entire trial peak shattered into silence.
