Chapter 247: Sword Formation, Rise!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Initially, being relentlessly pursued by Lu Zhichun, this matter had only happened a few days ago, and Chen Fei still had a vivid memory of it. Now that he had the opportunity for revenge, Chen Fei naturally wouldn’t let such a chance slip away.

Lu Zhichun received no response from Chen Fei. His teeth clenched tightly, grinding against each other, creating a harsh sound.

“What’s your price? What would it take for you to be willing to spare me? As long as I can do it, I won’t refuse!” Lu Zhichun continued to shout loudly.

“May I borrow your life for a moment?” Chen Fei’s voice echoed softly.

“You’re pushing your luck! Do you really think you’ve already won?”

Lu Zhichun shouted in anger, his expression somewhat ferocious, saying, “I just don’t want both of us to suffer defeat, lest others benefit. If you continue to press me, we might end up destroying each other, and I won’t let you off easily!”

The fierce and tragic aura emanated from Lu Zhichun as if Chen Fei continued to pursue, Lu Zhichun was ready to risk his life to drag Chen Fei down with him.

Cultivators, they were never lacking in decisiveness, nor were they lacking in the courage to go down together. Only in this way could they step by step acquire various martial resources and elevate their cultivation to the current level.

So anyone hearing such words would probably feel a tremor in their hearts. Was it really worth chasing so desperately? Especially for disciples of sects, their future was promising, with proper cultivation, their strength would definitely surpass that of independent cultivators.

A few years later, they might come back and easily slay their enemies. Why go through the risk of mutual destruction like they were doing now?

“You’re right!”

The Chasing Soul Step turned Chen Fei’s figure into a shadow, bringing him to a position nearly ten meters behind Lu Zhichun. Chen Fei pointed forward with his right hand, and the aperture tempering force within him suddenly shook, causing a heavy pressure to descend in front of him.

Under the heavy vital energy field, Lu Zhichun’s figure involuntarily staggered, and his speed suddenly slowed down.

If you dare to force me, we’ll die together!”

Lu Zhichun’s expression turned ferocious, his eyes filled with cruelty, and a terrifying aura spread in all directions. He was like an injured beast now, ready to pounce on anyone who came near.

Chen Fei’s gaze remained calm. After breaking through to the Aperture Tempering realm, Chen Fei had not only converted all the strength in his body into vital energy, greatly increasing his combat power, but he had also undergone a significant transformation, and that was in his core soul energy.

Chen Fei’s core soul energy during the Visceral Tempering realm far surpassed disciples from the four major sects, even those in the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect who could match Chen Fei’s core soul energy were few and far between.

At that time, Chen Fei’s core soul energy was not only abundant but also of extremely high quality.

And after breaking through to the Aperture Tempering realm, Chen Fei’s core soul energy had been further refined and sublimated by the vital energies of heaven and earth, taking another step forward in evolution.

For all cultivators, after breaking through to the Aperture Tempering realm, both their vital energy and core soul energy would receive a significant boost. The stronger the foundation, the greater the benefits upon breaking through.

The transformation Chen Fei experienced was quite astonishing. The mental tree in his sea of consciousness had shrunk significantly.

This kind of shrinking wasn’t a decline in core soul energy; on the contrary, it was further refinement and purification. Chen Fei’s current core soul energy was no different from those Aperture Tempering realm cultivators who had opened more than ten acupoints.

Because of this, when he first saw Lu Zhichun, he had already roughly assessed Lu Zhichun’s situation. Despite Lu Zhichun’s imposing appearance, there were no secrets in Chen Fei’s eyes.

At this moment, while Lu Zhichun appeared ready to go down together, most of his subsequent moves were actually about how to escape. From beginning to end, all Lu Zhichun was thinking about was getting away.

Chen Fei held the Qianyuan Sword with its tip plunged into the ground. In the next moment, a formation soared into the air, building upon the foundation of the vital energy, completely enveloping Lu Zhichun ahead.

This was the Zhongyuan Sword Force Formation!

This was another special application of the Zhongyuan Sword after advancing to the Aperture Tempering realm. It used the vital energy as its core, superimposed a formation within the vital energy, and thereby strangled the enemy.

Chen Fei was still in the early stages of learning the Zhongyuan Sword Force Formation. Compared to those who had been in the Aperture Tempering realm for many years, Chen Fei was indeed considered a weaker cultivator in this stage.

Even facing a moderately injured Aperture Tempering realm cultivator, Chen Fei’s chances of victory were still challenging. But fate had dealt Lu Zhichun a severe injury, making the situation more favorable for Chen Fei.

Although the Zhongyuan Sword Force Formation was still in its infancy, Chen Fei had previously taken advantage of a breakthrough opportunity to absorb a significant amount of Heaven and Earth elemental qi, filling half of the first acupoint.

While it was still in its early stages, it was at least an initiation. Coupled with Chen Fei’s core soul energy, which could rival cultivators who had opened over ten acupoints, his actual combat capabilities weren’t far behind those of ordinary independent cultivators.

In comparison to Lu Zhichun’s prime, Chen Fei was only slightly inferior now. This was because ordinary independent cultivators didn’t possess sophisticated techniques like the Zhongyuan Sword Force Formation.

The Zhongyuan Sword Force Formation immobilized the enemy, but the real killer was the condensed Zhongyuan Sword Pearls.

These were the same sword pearls that Chen Fei had used as a finishing move when he was in the Aperture Tempering realm. Now, after breaking through to the Aperture Tempering realm, Chen Fei could condense ten sword pearls in one go.

Furthermore, these sword pearls were much more powerful and faster than when he was in the Visceral Tempering realm. So, while it appeared that there were only ten sword pearls in the formation, their combined might, enhanced by the formation itself, far surpassed the combined attacks of ten Visceral Tempering realm Chen Feis.

They were not even in the same league!

Inside the formation, the sword pearls could continuously attack without any gaps. The Chen Fei of the Visceral Tempering realm couldn’t have maintained such an onslaught.

In the early stages of the Zhongyuan Sword Force Formation, Chen Fei could condense ten sword pearls. At the peak level, it would be eighty-one sword pearls attacking continuously.

Even for late Aperture Tempering realm experts, they could disregard one or ten sword pearls, but facing an uninterrupted onslaught of eighty-one sword pearls, even late Aperture Tempering realm experts would have to consider their options.

As Chen Fei continued to advance in his cultivation, the power and speed of each sword pearl would continue to increase. What he had now was just the attack power equivalent to the peak of Visceral Tempering realm. In the future, it would be even more formidable!

This is the true form of the Zhongyuan Sword, the inherited martial art of the Primordial Sword Sect. If the cultivator’s core soul energy is strong enough, they can even develop more powerful techniques.

Just like how he prematurely condensed a sword pearl when he was in the Visceral Tempering realm.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

Chen Fei pressed both hands on the hilt of the Qianyuan Sword, watching as the ten sword pearls in the formation turned into shadows, continuously circling and attacking Lu Zhichun.

Lu Zhichun’s facade of fierceness and hidden weakness was revealed under the onslaught of the Zhongyuan Sword Force Formation in just a few breaths of time.

Within moments, injuries appeared on Lu Zhichun’s body, and as soon as these injuries emerged, the Zhongyuan Sword Force Formation would directly exert a pulling force, dragging out the blood, leaving no room for recovery.

In this short period, a significant amount of blood had already appeared on the ground, all from Lu Zhichun. He was already injured, and his blood continued to flow, making his complexion even paler.

Let me go!”

Lu Zhichun shouted loudly, a flush appearing on his face, his aura surging, and he tried to break through to the outer perimeter. However, he was immediately intercepted by the continuous assault of the ten sword pearls.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Zhichun’s arms had become a bloody mess.

With a severely injured body and a damaged spiritual weapon, Lu Zhichun’s current weakness was fully exposed in front of Chen Fei. He no longer resembled an Aperture Tempering realm cultivator in terms of combat strength.

“Give me a chance, don’t kill me, I’ll do anything you want. I’ve hidden many valuable items; spare me, and I’ll give them all to you!”

Lu Zhichun screamed frantically. In his prime, Lu Zhichun could have easily shattered the sword pearls and, at most, withstood a hundred moves to break the formation.

But now, Lu Zhichun had the intention but not the strength. He couldn’t resist any longer. He didn’t want to die; he had worked so hard to become an Aperture Tempering realm cultivator, and he didn’t want to die here.

Chen Fei remained silent. Making an Aperture Tempering realm cultivator his slave? Chen Fei’s ambitions weren’t that grand, especially not for someone as ruthless as Lu Zhichun.

Chen Fei suspected that Lu Zhichun might be able to escape from the Mi Village, and given that Hua Daohong wasn’t present, he probably betrayed his own friend outright.

To stay alive, Lu Zhichun could do anything. But after surviving, he would stop at nothing for other purposes.

“Don’t force me! If you don’t give me a chance to live, don’t think you’ll have it easy. Everyone will die! You’ll all die for me!”

Lu Zhichun’s eyes turned bloodshot as he stared at Chen Fei. The fleeting trace of pleading had vanished, replaced by sheer madness.

Chen Fei’s expression became slightly solemn because he could see that this time, Lu Zhichun was serious. Since Lu Zhichun couldn’t see a chance to survive, he was determined to inflict severe harm on Chen Fei.

“Buzz!”

Lu Zhichun’s body trembled slightly, and a wave erupted from his acupoints. Two acupoints on the brink of shattering suddenly split open, and a powerful force burst forth.

Lu Zhichun’s aura surged, approaching the level of his prime, and even in terms of explosiveness, it exceeded his previous peak.

Lu Zhichun stared intently at Chen Fei, his right hand smashing into his chest, and he spewed out a mouthful of blood containing organ fragments. This action caused all of Lu Zhichun’s internal organs to shatter.

Lu Zhichun’s aura continued to rise, and at this moment, he could be considered in the peak state of his life.

Die! I want you to die, hahaha!”

Lu Zhichun laughed manically, and with a wave of his hand, he sent several sword pearls that had been launched at him flying. His eyes locked onto Chen Fei as he charged madly, exuding a frenzied and cruel aura.

“Rise, shatter!”

Chen Fei uttered a low shout, and the Zhongyuan Sword Force Formation suddenly soared into the sky. It contracted and gathered, shrinking from a radius of several dozen meters to just a few meters.

In the next moment, the Zhongyuan Sword Force Formation suddenly exploded. The force field overlaid with formations, mixed with sword pearls, shattered and burst apart. Destructive power swept the surroundings.

Boom!

Chen Fei flipped the Qianyuan Sword, and the black power of the Zhongyuan Sword returned from a distance, one by one, merging into the Qianyuan Sword, from the sword body to the hilt, covering it entirely in black.

In the next instant, Chen Fei took a step forward with his right foot, thrusting the Qianyuan Sword forward. A black beam of light flashed, perfectly piercing through the silhouette that had appeared in front of him.

Lu Zhichun’s body stiffened, looking at Chen Fei from a distance, his eyes filled with unwillingness. In the next moment, his entire body disintegrated like fine sand.

A violent wind swept up, leaving behind a massive trench in its wake.

Chen Fei’s hair fluttered in the wind, his formidable aura pressing in all directions, and the Qianyuan Sword pointed diagonally at the ground.

Aperture Tempering realm, that’s all it amounted to!
