Chapter 957: Monster
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Kuang Xingfeng was taken to a healing place by the head of the Qiankun Mansion.
Without treatment, Kuang Xingfeng would likely have died on the spot.
Battles between prodigies are encouraged by Qiankun Mansion, but there is one crucial condition: no one can die. Losing a prodigy would be a significant loss for humanity.
Humanity’s life-and-death battles should be fought against alien races.
Chen Fei descended from the sky and cupped his hands towards the surrounding people before leaving the Fire Away Branch.
Everyone watched Chen Fei’s departing figure until he disappeared, at which point intense discussions erupted.
It was simply outrageous—Chen Fei had won again!
He had defeated twelve opponents of the same rank and triumphed over higher-ranked foes, and now he had slain another prodigy with his sword.
Even though Kuang Xingfeng had performed exceptionally well, most people believed that any of them in the later stage of the Sun Moon Realm would have been swept out of the arena by Kuang Xingfeng.
The Heavenly Illusion Time Severing Technique was strong, but there were dozens of similar techniques in Qiankun Mansion at the same level.
What was truly powerful was Kuang Xingfeng himself. His understanding of this technique allowed him to create illusions that were nearly impossible for ordinary Sun Moon Realm pract.i.tioners to see through.
If one couldn’t see through it, one would be completely controlled by Kuang Xingfeng.
Even though they saw that Chen Fei was stronger in direct combat, they still thought that Kuang Xingfeng might be the eventual victor.
In combat, the difference between being proactive and reactive is profound. They had experienced this deeply over many years of training.
Yet, in the end, Chen Fei forced Kuang Xingfeng out of his illusion with three strikes and interrupted his attempt to re-enter it.
Clearly, Chen Fei had seen through the illusion.
At that moment, the momentum of attack and defense s.h.i.+fted.
Unable to win or evade, Kuang Xingfeng’s fate was sealed.
In this battle, Kuang Xingfeng’s strength was even more evident, but he encountered Chen Fei, who was stronger.
Most people had antic.i.p.ated Kuang Xingfeng’s strength, especially since he was ranked twenty-fifth among the Sun Moon Realm pract.i.tioners in the Fire Away Branch.
But Chen Fei’s strength was truly unexpected.
Not only did he overpower Kuang Xingfeng in direct combat, but he also managed to resist the powerful illusion.
Chen Fei’s strength was comprehensive and all-encompa.s.sing, especially considering his relatively short training period. He had recently broken through to the mid-stage of the Sun Moon Realm.
The outcome of this battle quickly spread throughout Qiankun Mansion and even beyond its walls.
Most people who had bet on Chen Fei’s loss were filled with resignation, many having lost three times on Chen Fei alone.
Although Chen Fei was not their personal bet, their losses were severe.
The few who had bet on Chen Fei’s win were overjoyed, unable to hide their smiles.
Whether it was about achievement points or not, it didn’t matter much since they hadn’t bet too much.
But when the other eighty percent of Sun Moon Realm pract.i.tioners lost while they won, a sense of superiority naturally emerged.
People’s sense of happiness is sometimes forged through such comparisons.
Half an hour later, Chen Fei arrived at the courtyard where Hua Zhicun was located.
Hua Zhicun looked at Chen Fei with a peculiar expression.
“Something wrong?” Chen Fei asked, noticing Hua Zhicun’s demeanor, and chuckled lightly.
“Nothing, just wondering if, when you reach the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, I will still be at my current level.”
Hua Zhicun said as he transferred three thousand achievement points to Chen Fei’s jade plaque.
A new generation replacing the old. Although Chen Fei was only in the mid-stage of the Sun Moon Realm, after witnessing Chen Fei’s battle, Hua Zhicun suddenly felt a sense of urgency from being overtaken by a younger generation.
Hua Zhicun considered himself exceptionally talented. Before Qiankun Mansion opened, he had already reached the peak of the Sun Moon Realm and was preparing to break through to the Rule Integration Realm.
But now, Hua Zhicun felt that his talent seemed ordinary in comparison.
“That probably won’t be the case. I estimate it will take me a few more years to reach the peak of the Sun Moon Realm.”
Chen Fei estimated his training progress seriously.
Hua Zhicun’s eyelids twitched slightly. He had merely expressed a feeling, but now it seemed Chen Fei might indeed reach the peak of the Sun Moon Realm within a few years.
Hua Zhicun was not confident in breaking through to the Rule Integration Realm within a few years.
For most Sun Moon Realm pract.i.tioners, the Rule Integration Realm was a significant barrier that was not easily crossed.
Even Sun Moon Realm experts who ascended from lower realms, who were expected to be exceptionally talented, faced immense difficulty in breaking through to the Rule Integration Realm after arriving in the Return to Nothing Realm.
The number who successfully did so was far fewer than expected.
With Qiankun Mansion’s superior cultivation environment, Hua Zhicun’s confidence had only improved slightly compared to before.
A breakthrough within a few years would require a serious effort.
Moments later, Chen Fei took his leave and headed towards his own courtyard.
The courtyard had been changed and was now located in the area for late-stage Sun Moon Realm pract.i.tioners.
The Sky Sea Branch’s courtyards for late-stage Sun Moon Realm pract.i.tioners had been restored to thirty, and Chen Fei’s current courtyard was far better than the one that had been taken from him before.
Along the way, Chen Fei encountered several late-stage Sun Moon Realm pract.i.tioners who all nodded to him, and Chen Fei returned the gestures.
Some of these pract.i.tioners even took the time to chat with Chen Fei, inviting him to visit their courtyards and discuss cultivation insights when he had time.
Although Chen Fei was only in the mid-stage of the Sun Moon Realm, no one in Qiankun Mansion regarded him as such anymore.
A genius could not be viewed through ordinary standards.
Indeed, Chen Fei had risen to the level of a prodigy in everyone’s eyes.
While prodigies defeated opponents of higher ranks, Chen Fei had exceeded even prodigies, warranting his own category among geniuses.
There was also a common understanding that any bets involving Chen Fei should be placed on him winning.
This was a hard-earned lesson from repeated losses.
Many had come to realize that Chen Fei would never undertake something without confidence.
Even when something seemed absurd, if Chen Fei was involved, it suddenly became reasonable.
However, this consensus would likely lead to another issue: there might no longer be any bets involving Chen Fei in the future.
When the common belief is that you are unbeatable, no one would be willing to take the risk of being the bookmaker.
In the courtyard, Sect Leader Qu Qingsheng and others waited for Chen Fei’s return.
In the past six months, Chen Fei had moved through three different courtyards, from the top-ranked courtyard for early-stage Sun Moon Realm to the current late-stage Sun Moon Realm courtyard.
Naturally, the effectiveness of the courtyard had continually improved and was now at a rather astonis.h.i.+ng level.
After all, even for late-stage Sun Moon Realm pract.i.tioners, the benefits were highly significant, let alone for those below this realm like Qu Qingsheng and others.
With three thousand achievement points, Chen Fei did not use them for the treasure vault this time.
He had previously exchanged for materials that could a.s.sist in enhancing the understanding of divine abilities for the mid-stage Sun Moon Realm, and the Earth Concealment Bamboo could only be used once.
The Cloud Sun Pills, however, could continue to enhance Chen Fei’s cultivation of the Pillar Mountain. Each Cloud Sun Pill was worth two hundred achievement points, and Chen Fei could exchange for fifteen.
The ten Cloud Sun Pills previously consumed had improved Chen Fei’s Pillar Mountain to thirty percent. With fifteen more Cloud Sun Pills, it should reach over seventy percent, nearly eighty percent.
The Cloud Sun Pills had a very noticeable effect, but cultivating divine abilities in the Sun Moon Realm was the most challenging aspect.
For example, the Pillar Mountain could be continuously upgraded with Cloud Sun Pills, but the cultivation of divine abilities only had the Earth Concealment Bamboo available.
This clearly highlighted the difference in difficulty between the two types of cultivation.
Therefore, Chen Fei decided to use his achievement points to exchange for access to special cultivation rooms instead of more Cloud Sun Pills.
The public area included not only training grounds and stone towers but also various cultivation rooms.
Although the current late-stage Sun Moon Realm courtyard had greatly accelerated Chen Fei’s cultivation speed, it still could not match the effectiveness of those special cultivation rooms.
As for exchanging for new techniques, the current Desolate Slaughter Night Star Sword was sufficient for Chen Fei. He could continue cultivating it to the Great Completion realm before exchanging for new Emperor-level techniques to integrate.
Early the next morning, Chen Fei arrived at the public area.
He immediately noticed that there were significantly fewer people around.
In addition to Chen Fei’s challenge yesterday, the most significant event was the large-scale elimination of Sun Moon Realm pract.i.tioners.
Thirty percent of them had left Qiankun Mansion and no longer benefited from its accelerated cultivation environment.
The public area seemed somewhat desolate as Chen Fei approached the special cultivation rooms, where a Rule Integration Realm expert was stationed.
“What’s the matter?”
Yu Dingshan, recognizing Chen Fei, greeted him with a smile.
The ultimate goal of Qiankun Mansion was to help prodigies grow faster, so those who displayed exceptional talent, like Chen Fei, were treated well by these Rule Integration Realm leaders.
“I’d like to use a cultivation room,” Chen Fei said with a cupped fist.
“What aspect?” Yu Dingshan asked.
“Comprehension of techniques.”
Cultivation rooms were generally divided into three categories: internal cultivation of energy, comprehension of techniques, and finally, cultivation of divine abilities.
Chen Fei’s primary goal was to cultivate divine abilities, which would normally require a divine ability-focused room.
These cultivation rooms could automatically match the specific environment needed based on the pract.i.tioner’s divine ability, allowing them to interact with the world’s vital energy and receive additional spiritual enhancement to improve their divine ability.
However, this was the usual procedure for cultivating divine abilities in the Sun Moon Realm. Chen Fei’s approach was different.
By using his panel, Chen Fei could quickly acc.u.mulate proficiency in divine ability comprehension, but he felt that this speed was still insufficient. Therefore, he needed a cultivation room as a comprehension amplifier.
The panel generated a comprehension insight in his sea of consciousness, which, with spiritual enhancement, produced more insights. The transformation from one to many accelerated Chen Fei’s proficiency development.
While his courtyard had similar capabilities, this place was undoubtedly more effective.
Thus, what Chen Fei needed was not a special cultivation environment but an intensely rich spiritual enhancement to continuously amplify his comprehension.
