Chapter 702: Powerful

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Within the Primordial Sword Sect, everyone gazed blankly at the sky.

Just moments ago, they had all been prepared to exert their last bit of strength in resistance.

Though they knew their resistance was insignificant to the vastness of the world, even futile in the face of such vast power differentials between them and their adversaries, they chose defiance over pa.s.sive acceptance.

But pa.s.sively awaiting death and fighting with all one’s might are completely different att.i.tudes.

They may be killed, but they will never submit like cattle or sheep!

Yet, the situation took a sudden and drastic turn when Chen Fei unexpectedly broke through to the Mountain Sea Realm.

Not only did he break through, but even when faced with the combined a.s.sault of two Mountain Sea Realm experts, he fearlessly slew them all.

Even when one of the Mountain Sea Realm experts attempted to flee, Chen Fei forcefully seized them, ending their escape with a single stroke of his sword.

All of this seemed so surreal and unreal.

Until today, they never imagined that their diligent cultivation within the sect would attract the suppression of the Mountain Sea Realm.

Nor did they antic.i.p.ate that, under such circ.u.mstances, not only would their sect remain unscathed, but the Primordial Sword Sect would transform into a sect with Mountain Sea Realm powerhouses at its helm.

The Mountain Sea Realm!

What a powerful realm it is! Now, the Primordial Sword Sect will also have such a powerhouse among its ranks.

Although they had always known that with Chen Fei’s extraordinary talent, the possibility of him breaking through to the Mountain Sea Realm in the future would be very high.

But no matter how high the possibility, without actual realization, it didn’t count for anything.

This world is extremely cruel; n.o.body knew what might happen in the next moment. Without a genuine breakthrough, nothing counted for anything.

In the past, the Thousand Feathers Alliance boasted many exceptional geniuses who reached the peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm early in their cultivation, thinking they would one day break through to the Mountain Sea Realm.

But in the end, many of them died without ever taking that step.

The Mountain Sea Realm is not a realm that one can simply enter with exceptional talent alone.

The pent-up frustration was expelled from the mouths of the Primordial Sword Sect disciples, and smiles involuntarily spread across their faces.

The golden days of the Primordial Sword Sect have arrived, and such days are likely to last for a long, long time!

From a hundred miles away, Tang Shouchang watched in the direction of the Primordial Sword Sect.

Because he couldn’t dissuade Wu Renxu and the others, Tang Shouchang stopped at his current position helplessly. However, since just now, Tang Shouchang had felt that something was amiss with the spiritual energy in the distance.

With the strength of the Mountain Sea Realm, and even two Mountain Sea Realm experts, dealing with a Combined Aperture Tempering realm sect would have been a piece of cake.

However, the fluctuations in the spiritual energy over there had lasted for some time, and from Tang Shouchang’s perception, the fluctuations in the spiritual energy seemed to have been too intense.

Tang Shouchang felt puzzled and began to fly forward. It wasn’t until he was fifty miles away from the Primordial Sword Sect that Tang Shouchang stopped, staring blankly at the scene before him.

It wasn’t because he could see what had happened at the Primordial Sword Sect from there, but because he saw a familiar figure. At that moment, that figure was single-handedly grabbing the Evil and beating it violently.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth was continuously pouring into Chen Fei’s body, and the time was too short; Chen Fei’s breakthrough to the Mountain Sea Realm was far from over.

Therefore, Tang Shouchang could clearly perceive Chen Fei’s aura at that moment—it was that of the Mountain Sea Realm.

Tang Shouchang blinked, feeling a myriad of doubts. Just an hour ago, in Thousand Geese City, this junior before him was still at the peak of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

An hour later, and he was already in the Mountain Sea Realm?

And now, Chen Fei was there, smas.h.i.+ng the Evil. Where had Wu Renxu and Zhang Chaoyun gone?

A conjecture popped into Tang Shouchang’s mind, but he quickly dismissed it. It couldn’t be possible that he had just broken through!

Yet, despite being here, Tang Shouchang sensed the fluctuations from the Primordial Sword Sect fifty miles away, but he didn’t sense Wu Renxu and Zhang Chaoyun. Where had they gone?

Chen Fei glanced up at Tang Shouchang, then continued to pummel the Evil in his hand.

After dealing with Wu Renxu and Zhang Chaoyun, Chen Fei had directly pursued this Evil.

Upon realizing that things were amiss earlier, the Evil had abandoned its attempt on the Primordial Sword Sect and fled through another route.

However, before it could get far, Chen Fei, who had already concluded the battle, caught up to it.

The Evil’s head was now muddled. It had clearly seen two Mountain Sea Realm experts chasing the person before it. How come they were nowhere to be seen now, and this human was instead a.s.saulting it?

Was this cunning human just putting on a show for it, toying with it?

Indignant thoughts swirled within the Evil, but with each punch from Chen Fei landing on its body, its indignation was slowly beaten out of it.

It hurt too much!

What was up with this human’s fists? Why did they hurt so much, and why did the Evil feel its own strength diminis.h.i.+ng?

The previous trough should have been the lowest point already. How could the dispersed power still be beaten?

“This Evil is difficult to kill and impossible to seal. However, if taken to Feihuang City, it could fetch a bounty!”

Tang Shouchang made an effort to sense the fluctuations from the Primordial Sword Sect, confirming that a major battle had indeed occurred there.

Additionally, he faintly sensed a trace of the dissipation of Wu Renxu and Zhang Chaoyun’s essence.

This trace was too subtle, so subtle that Tang Shouchang subconsciously wondered if it was his imagination.

If the person before him had indeed driven away Wu Renxu and the others, then the most likely scenario was that they would have fled in Tang Shouchang’s direction.

But Wu Renxu and Zhang Chaoyun were nowhere to be seen at the moment.

“A bounty?”

Upon hearing Tang Shouchang’s words, Chen Fei’s punches towards the Evil paused slightly. Suddenly, he understood why Wu Renxu and the others had driven the Evil to the Primordial Sword Sect.

After pummeling the Evil for so long, Chen Fei also realized its peculiarity.

At this point, the Evil had become so difficult to eradicate, as if it possessed some special innate talent.

With the strength of the early Mountain Sea Realm, even if he exhausted himself, it would be difficult to kill this Evil.

Sealing the Evil could actually fetch a bounty, but the actions of Wu Renxu and the others were still outrageous.

With their long lifespan and far superior strength compared to ordinary people, their mentality had undergone a drastic change, viewing everything beneath the Mountain Sea Realm as ants and acting recklessly!

“Where did those two go just now?”

Seeing Chen Fei pause his actions, Tang Shouchang hesitated for a moment before asking. Unless he understood this matter clearly, Tang Shouchang feared it would linger in his mind indefinitely.

And only by knowing the fate of the two could Tang Shouchang determine what to do next.

“They’re dead.”

Chen Fei replied indifferently, gripping the scalp of the Evil in his right hand. With a twist, he slammed it fiercely onto the ground.

“Boom!”

A loud explosion followed as a deep pit appeared on the ground, and the Evil let out a painful howl.

This sound jolted Tang Shouchang awake. Dead?

Really dead?

Although he had speculated earlier, confirming it from Chen Fei’s mouth still made it difficult for Tang Shouchang to accept. Two Mountain Sea Realm experts, killed in less than a moment just now?

Moreover, the one who killed them was a Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivator who had addressed him as City Lord just an hour ago?

Chen Fei ignored Tang Shouchang and focused on the Evil in his hand.

As for Tang Shouchang, Chen Fei’s perception of him was still acceptable.

When Wu Renxu and the others had driven the Evil to the Primordial Sword Sect earlier, Chen Fei had sensed Tang Shouchang’s aura from afar.

Obviously, Tang Shouchang was unwilling to a.s.sociate himself with the actions of Wu Renxu and the others; there was still a line he wouldn’t cross.

As for whether Tang Shouchang would sacrifice himself to intercept Wu Renxu and the others to protect the Primordial Sword Sect, Chen Fei didn’t blame him so harshly, because it was an impossible task to begin with.

“The Evil will counterattack!”

Tang Shouchang’s mind couldn’t keep up, and seeing Chen Fei about to start sealing the Evil, he subconsciously reminded him.

Chen Fei nodded without speaking.

As the sealing began, Chen Fei indeed sensed a strange backlash from the Evil’s body. This backlash grew stronger as the sealing progressed.

With his hands clasped together, the Evil was held between Chen Fei’s palms, but at this moment, a glaring light burst from the gaps between Chen Fei’s fingers.

Chen Fei’s eyelids lifted slightly as the backlash from the Evil surged wildly within his body. However, it was soon forcibly suppressed by the Suppressing Dragon Elephant Technique, transforming into Chen Fei’s own power, which then counter-suppressed the Evil once again.

“The Suppressing Dragon Elephant Technique, your power can be yours, or it can be mine, but in the end, it’s all mine!”

The light s.h.i.+ning through the gaps between Chen Fei’s fingers grew brighter and brighter. Even though Tang Shouchang was a mile away, he could clearly sense the immense power within.

This was no less than Tang Shouchang’s own full-force attack, yet Chen Fei’s hands remained as steady as ever, without the slightest tremor. Chen Fei’s expression showed no change either.

Tang Shouchang’s mind churned. So, Chen Fei could catch his full-force attack barehanded without any injury?

Was this the power of someone who had just broken through to the Mountain Sea Realm?

Could it be that Chen Fei was already in the Mountain Sea Realm when he was in Thousand Geese City?

Suddenly, Tang Shouchang began to understand howWu Renxu and the others were killed.

Just a glimpse was enough for Tang Shouchang to imagine the despair in Wu Renxu and the others’ hearts during the previous battle.

“Hum!”

As Chen Fei’s palms completely closed together, a ripple emanated from his palms.

Opening his palms, Chen Fei revealed a black sphere in the center of his hand— a complete seal of the Evil.

Relying on the Evil’s own backlash force to seal it was the only way. Otherwise, relying solely on Chen Fei’s own strength would have been difficult.

Tang Shouchang looked at Chen Fei, then glanced at the seal in Chen Fei’s hand, unsure of what to say for a moment.

A day later, news spread throughout Thousand Geese City, causing a stir among its residents.

Wu Renxu and Zhang Chaoyun, driven by madness, attempted to bloodbath the sects in the Thousand Geese Mountains for a treasure. In the end, they were slain by the newly ascended Mountain Sea Realm expert from the Primordial Sword Sect.

The sects of Wu Renxu and Zhang Chaoyun were thoroughly purged, and all their collections were seized by the Primordial Sword Sect.

The relatives of Wu Renxu and Zhang Chaoyun, as well as the martial artists from both sects above the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, were all sent to labor in the fiery caves of the Thousand Geese Mountains, where their cultivation was abolished, and they were forbidden from ever leaving.

None of those imprisoned in the fiery caves survived for more than three months.

With a strong presence established in Thousand Geese City, the Primordial Sword Sect took control.

Amidst the turmoil outside, Chen Fei was busy inventorying the collections of Wu Renxu and Zhang Chaoyun.

The treasures acc.u.mulated throughout their lifetimes were of staggering value, especially considering there were two of them.
