Chapter 955: What Can You Do To Me?
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Looking at the three hundred duplicates of Kuang Xingfeng within the battle zone, the expressions of all the Sun Moon Realm experts were grave, especially those from the Sky Sea Branch.
Although many of them didn’t believe that Chen Fei could surpa.s.s Kuang Xingfeng, this battle carried some symbolic meaning for the Sky Sea Branch.
If Chen Fei won, the Sun Moon Realm late-stage courtyard that had been taken could be reclaimed by the Sky Sea Branch.
Moreover, Kuang Xingfeng’s current ranking was 25th among the Sun Moon Realm late-stage experts. If they could regain this courtyard, it would be significantly better than the 29th-ranking courtyard that had been lost before, thus making a net gain.
Of course, this was contingent on Chen Fei winning.
At the moment, looking at the three hundred Kuang Xingfengs in the battle zone, the vast majority of the Sun Moon Realm late-stage experts could discern no clues.
In other words, in their eyes, all three hundred Kuang Xingfengs were real, and each possessed the peak strength of the mid-phase Sun Moon Realm.
Three hundred peak mid-phase Sun Moon Realm experts, let alone facing late-phase Sun Moon Realm opponents, would flatten even those at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm.
Only a few Sun Moon Realm late-stage and pinnacle experts could detect differences between the three hundred Kuang Xingfengs.
This was the Heavenly Illusion Time Severing Technique—a type of illusion, but due to its integration with a thread of temporal rules, the illusion had undergone a qualitative change.
When you are in the illusion and cannot distinguish truth from falsehood, then everything within it becomes real.
Within the battle zone, Chen Fei looked ahead, and the enormous eyes of the Eternal Night Manifestation suddenly emitted two beams of light, completely enveloping the area in front.
The Desolate Slaughter Night Star Sword, surpa.s.sing all human Sun Moon Realm inheritances, was characterized by extreme violence as its primary trait.
To ensure this violence could effectively strike the enemy, the Desolate Slaughter Night Star Sword also possessed the ability to pierce through illusions.
It also had the divine power of seeing and destroying illusions, adapting to the environment.
This adaptability allowed Chen Fei to quickly enter the rhythm of the illusion, even within the illusion, and perceive the situation as if he were one of its own.
Combining these two factors, Chen Fei instantly captured a clue.
In the next moment, Chen Fei swung his sword, the ma.s.sive Eternal Night Sword sweeping through the sky, landing on an empty spot in front.
“Boom!”
The entire battle zone slightly shook, and a ma.s.sive wave of energy radiated outward from the point where the Eternal Night Sword landed.
The sword lights of the three hundred Kuang Xingfengs, which had been jointly cast, suddenly twisted in mid-air and then nearly all dissipated.
Only a few sword lights struck the left arm of the Eternal Night Manifestation, causing a slight ripple.
The three hundred Kuang Xingfengs showed a hint of surprise. They hadn’t expected Chen Fei to discover the key to the illusion so quickly.
If he had been even a moment slower, he would have faced the combined power of three hundred mid-phase Sun Moon Realm experts.
Even if Chen Fei knew most of it was false, illusions could distort one’s vitality and soul, and many injuries would still be inflicted upon him.
Although it wouldn’t be as exaggerated as facing three hundred mid-phase Sun Moon Realm experts together, it would certainly cause severe injuries and near-death conditions.
From the very beginning, it was a direct confrontation, and a slight misstep could lead to immediate defeat.
Outside the battle zone, many people’s eyes couldn’t help but brighten.
Chen Fei truly lived up to his reputation as a prodigy, breaking Kuang Xingfeng’s scheme so cleanly.
When Kuang Xingfeng fought above his level, even the late-stage Sun Moon Realm expert She Zhengan was unable to discern the real from the illusion.
To outsiders, Kuang Xingfeng appeared to suffer no injuries throughout, showcasing his prodigious abilities.
Within the battle zone, Chen Fei stepped forward, crossing several miles in an instant to stand before Kuang Xingfeng.
In the face of such illusions, the longer time drags on, the more perfected the illusion becomes.
To some extent, illusions and formations are quite similar.
However, formations show noticeable changes in the world’s vital energy, while illusions silently ensnare one without awareness.
Seeing Chen Fei appear before him, Kuang Xingfeng stepped back, and the three hundred Kuang Xingfengs suddenly vanished.
Without taking action, even the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm would find it hard to locate Kuang Xingfeng; other Sun Moon Realms were even more clueless.
This essentially placed himself in an invincible position.
He could choose to fight or not, hiding within the illusion if he wished, leaving his opponents helpless.
He could even delay time, continuously enhancing the illusion’s power, and eventually crush everything before him with overwhelming momentum.
Chen Fei paused his steps, standing still as his gaze swept around.
From all directions, the presence of Kuang Xingfeng could be felt, but upon closer inspection, it became clear that these were all illusions. Kuang Xingfeng’s actual presence left no trace.
Outside the battle zone, everyone was waiting for Chen Fei’s response, with many focusing on his fluctuations in energy.
At the start, Chen Fei had raised his energy and momentum to its peak, creating a stunning visual impact.
This was certainly due to a forbidden technique, which is known for its common flaw: it is hard to maintain. Once the time limit is reached, it would rapidly decline, possibly leading to a weakened state.
Thus, once using such a technique, the goal is to resolve the battle swiftly and decisively.
However, the rhythm of the fight was clearly controlled by Kuang Xingfeng.
Whenever Kuang Xingfeng wanted to attack, he would reveal himself to exchange a few blows.
If he deemed it unsuitable, he would simply hide within the illusion, making it impossible to locate him.
As time slowly pa.s.sed, Chen Fei remained calm, his energy as steady as a rock, with no fluctuations at all.
This state puzzled many observers. Was this not a forbidden technique?
What kind of technique could enhance a person’s combat power so significantly while still functioning as a regular move?
The Treasure Depository of the Qiankun Mansion had not shown any such technique.
In the battle zone, mist-like vapor began to drift, creating a hazy effect that made one feel drowsy.
Clearly, Kuang Xingfeng was continuously strengthening the illusion, and the intensity was increasing.
When Kuang Xingfeng chose to reveal himself, it would be at a moment when the situation was overwhelmingly in his favor.
In the shadows, Kuang Xingfeng watched Chen Fei from a distance.
At this moment, Kuang Xingfeng’s role was that of a hunter, creating a sufficiently solid cage to trap Chen Fei.
The longer time pa.s.sed, the more advantageous it was for him, and Kuang Xingfeng was confident about this.
Yet, Kuang Xingfeng did not see any sign of panic or anxiety in Chen Fei’s demeanor.
The force of Chen Fei’s previous sword strike had indeed surprised Kuang Xingfeng.
Chen Fei, who had recently broken through to the mid-phase of the Sun Moon Realm, already possessed such power—his talent was truly enviable.
Therefore, Kuang Xingfeng changed his strategy. The more Chen Fei wanted to engage in a head-on clash, the less Kuang Xingfeng would accommodate him.
To Kuang Xingfeng, battle was an art. He considered a fight complete when he could sit behind the scenes and see his enemies vanish with a mere wave of his hand.
Charging into battle was for brutes.
Of course, if the opponent were too weak, Kuang Xingfeng had no interest in setting up elaborate plans.
At the start, Kuang Xingfeng had conjured three hundred figures to try to forcefully break Chen Fei.
When Chen Fei countered that move, Kuang Xingfeng immediately switched tactics.
Kuang Xingfeng had mentally acknowledged Chen Fei as a worthy challenger.
However, the final victory would surely belong to him!
Kuang Xingfeng’s soul scanned the illusion, quickly checking for any anomalies. The illusion was intact, and its power was increasing rapidly.
Kuang Xingfeng looked at the calm Chen Fei once more, his brow slightly furrowed before relaxing again. No matter what schemes Chen Fei might have, with a little more time, the outcome would be certain!
Chen Fei sensed the growing threat around him, remaining composed.
Although the illusion’s power was intensifying, the divine power of seeing and destroying illusions was also continuously integrating into the illusion.
Chen Fei was unable to pull Kuang Xingfeng out of the illusion, as the Heavenly Illusion Time Severing Technique was not easily broken. It was too sophisticated to be removed from the Imperial Master’s inheritance.
Of course, it was also related to Chen Fei’s current proficiency with the Desolate Slaughter Night Star Sword.
If the sword were perfected, it could likely directly lock onto Kuang Xingfeng’s figure.
Even with his current level of expertise, Chen Fei could roughly detect some traces, rather than completely losing sight of him.
However, as Chen Fei integrated into the illusion, the illusion’s deceptive power had minimal impact on him.
Unable to locate Kuang Xingfeng, Chen Fei faced only a fraction of the illusion’s enhancement, dealing primarily with Kuang Xingfeng’s actual power.
Just as the time pa.s.sed, the entire illusion suddenly trembled slightly, and then a ma.s.sive force descended upon Chen Fei.
The surface of the Eternal Night Manifestation rippled, and it felt as though the entire world was conspiring to restrict Chen Fei’s actions.
Outside the battle zone, everyone watched intently. Since Kuang Xingfeng was not targeting them, they could see some of the details.
At this moment, they had a sense that Kuang Xingfeng was about to make a move.
Looking at Chen Fei, who had been standing still and not appearing to search for Kuang Xingfeng’s trace, it was unclear what he was actually doing.
“Buzz!”
Within the battle zone, the sky above fluctuated violently. Suddenly, a colossal hand, spanning several dozen miles, appeared, breaking through the clouds and directly reaching toward Chen Fei.
The energy of the world seemed to be pulled backward, as if the entire world was about to turn upside down.
It was unclear whether this was due to the illusion’s power reaching its peak, but even Kuang Xingfeng’s figure remained completely hidden, making it impossible to discern his true form.
Chen Fei looked up at the gigantic hand in the sky. Under such a ma.s.sive hand, even the Eternal Night Manifestation appeared somewhat insignificant, let alone Chen Fei’s actual body.
“I’ve found you!”
A smile appeared on Chen Fei’s face. In the next moment, he vanished from his original position and reappeared before the towering hand, slas.h.i.+ng out with his sword.
