“Engaging in violence may easily damage the harmony. If all of you are here for the sake of forming an alliance, I can go back and persuade them. I believe our sect will seriously consider it,” Chen Fei said with sincerity on his face.

The Divine Flame Sect seemed to have a high opinion of him, as they had directly approached three cultivators at the Aperture Tempering Realm, with one of them even approaching the mid-stage of the realm.

With such a lineup, let alone killing a martial artist who had just entered the Aperture Tempering Realm, they could probably handle someone who had been at this level for over a decade without any problem.

“Hahaha, do you really think that’s possible?” Zheng Guangfei, who was in the rear, burst into laughter. Killing the prodigies of such sects was the most exciting thing for Zheng Guangfei. As a wandering cultivator, what he hated most were these geniuses.

They cultivated quickly, had abundant resources, unlike people like them, wandering cultivators who had to struggle and fight for every step.

“Your goal is nothing more than wanting an alliance. Killing me will only make it even less likely for the sect to ally with the Divine Flame Sect. It’s not worth it,” Chen Fei earnestly analyzed.

“Whether we can form an alliance later is none of your concern. Surrender now, and you might suffer less!” Dong Xiuzhi sneered, a dagger already appearing in his hand. The dagger emitted a sharp aura, and even from dozens of meters away, Chen Fei could clearly sense it.

In the rear, Zheng Guangfei and the others also took out their respective spirit weapons. They no longer spoke and began to approach Chen Fei step by step.

Although it was a sure victory for three people to besiege a martial artist who had just entered the Aperture Tempering Realm, they were still very cautious when it came to actual combat.

Even when hunting, a lion would use all its strength to catch a rabbit, let alone killing a cultivator at the same level as themselves.

Negligence and carelessness, ironically, are the greatest forms of irresponsibility towards oneself because your life is your own. This point was naturally clear to the three individuals who were once wandering cultivators.

As the three approached, the smile on Chen Fei’s face vanished. The Qianyuan Sword leaped into his hand, as if sensing the danger around. The Qianyuan Sword’s blade vibrated violently, and a burst of sword intent swept in all directions.

“The sword is impressive, but the person wielding it isn’t!” Dong Xiuzhi’s eyes lit up slightly when he saw the Qianyuan Sword in Chen Fei’s hand.

The Qianyuan Sword, crafted using the Perfect Aperture Realm Sword Essence Technique, had just entered the spirit weapon level and was among the top-tier lower-grade spirit weapons.

Zheng Guangfei licked his lips, his gaze on the Qianyuan Sword filled with greed. In his mind, he had already planned how to distribute this lower-grade spirit sword after killing Chen Fei.

Cultivators like them who followed the path of wandering cultivators didn’t have access to high-quality spirit weapons, so seeing the Qianyuan Sword had immediately stirred their desires.

Even Dong Xiuzhi, who was on the verge of breaking into the mid-stage of the Aperture Tempering Realm, felt a hint of greed for the Qianyuan Sword.

The sword rose!

Sensing the change in the three’s intentions, Chen Fei’s inner energy suddenly trembled. The Zhongyuan Sword Formation instantly expanded, enveloping Dong Xiuzhi and the other two.

In the next moment, twenty sword pearls flashed within the sword formation, unleashing various sword techniques towards the three.

The three felt a sudden weight in their bodies, and then several black sword lights appeared before their eyes. These sword lights were exceptionally sharp, and with the power of the Qianyuan Sword infused into them, they became even more formidable.

Dong Xiuzhi and the others were astonished when they saw the sword lights. When they had come to besiege Chen Fei, they had naturally investigated all the information about him.

The Zhongyuan Sword, the primary cultivation technique that Chen Fei practiced, seemed to have an extraordinary affinity with the Zhongyuan Sword itself.

During his cultivation in the Visceral Tempering Realm, it had taken him only a few months to comprehend the Zhongyuan Sword to an extremely profound level.

With this skill, he had shone brightly within the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, rising to the second position among the sect’s true disciples.

They had estimated the extent of Chen Fei’s comprehension of the Zhongyuan Sword, speculating that he might have mastered it to a certain degree, allowing him to deploy the sword formation with some proficiency, which would already be quite remarkable.

After all, the difficulty of cultivating techniques between the Body Tempering Realm and the Aperture Tempering Realm was incomparable. Many martial artists in the early stages of the Aperture Tempering Realm might spend decades just to reach a level of mastery in their chosen techniques.

Chen Fei had cultivated the Zhongyuan Sword in the Body Tempering Realm swiftly, and even in the Aperture Tempering Realm, it would take at least a few years to achieve any significant progress. Such a speed was already an incredibly terrifying level of comprehension efficiency.

However, looking at the number of sword pearls within the sword formation now and the additional gravitational force exerted by the formation, it was evident that in just a few months, Chen Fei had achieved what would take many martial artists decades to accomplish.

This level of prodigious comprehension was truly inconceivable.

As the three individuals considered the speed at which they had initially cultivated their techniques, compared to Chen Fei, they felt like they were not even in the same league as martial artists.

“Attack!” Dong Xiuzhi snorted coldly, suppressing the hint of envy in his heart. He swung his dagger, easily shattering the approaching sword pearls, turning them into drifting black elemental energy.

While Dong Xiuzhi executed his actions cleanly, Zheng Guangfei and the others were slightly less efficient, but within a mere two breaths of time, they had destroyed all the sword pearls.

Twenty sword pearls could be highly threatening when directed at a single target. However, when they were dispersed, it became apparent that they were less effective against these Aperture Tempering Realm martial artists.

Just as Dong Xiuzhi and the others shattered the sword pearls and were about to charge toward Chen Fei, they suddenly found that the shattered sword pearls had transformed into countless sword threads, blocking their every path.

As the swords turned into threads, the power of the sword formation further elevated. Chen Fei’s eyes gleamed faintly, his mental power operating at its peak, capturing everything in his sight in an eternal moment.

Even though they had been somewhat surprised by Chen Fei’s displayed strength, at this moment, the three of them continued to block all possible escape routes, leaving no opportunity for Chen Fei to flee.

Chen Fei narrowed his eyes slightly and took a step forward, appearing right in front of Zheng Guangfei.

Among the three, Dong Xiuzhi was the strongest, and the other two were not far behind in terms of cultivation level. To break through, it was only natural for Chen Fei to choose the other two. He chose Zheng Guangfei because the martial technique Zheng Guangfei displayed seemed to have a weaker defensive aspect.

Martial arts techniques each had their own characteristics, and it was challenging to be proficient in all aspects. Being well-rounded could sometimes signify mediocrity because specialized techniques often outperformed in their respective areas. When they had shattered the sword pearls earlier, Zheng Guangfei had been slightly slower. Now, surrounded by the sword threads, Zheng Guangfei’s progress in breaking free was the slowest.

In this situation, who else could Chen Fei choose but Zheng Guangfei?

Zheng Guangfei was in the midst of shattering the sword threads, but the strength of the threads exceeded his expectations. They were resilient, sharp, and unceasing.

Zheng Guangfei considered the situation. If he were facing Chen Fei alone at this moment, he might very well be trapped by the sword formation, and it was uncertain whether he would be able to break free and defeat Chen Fei afterward.

“Be careful, don’t let him escape!” Dong Xiuzhi shouted sternly upon seeing Chen Fei’s actions. He also released a dazzling light from his dagger, dispersing the dense sword threads around him.

Just as Dong Xiuzhi was about to charge at Chen Fei, his body suddenly felt heavier, as if all the gravitational force within the sword formation had concentrated on him alone. Dong Xiuzhi’s figure involuntarily paused for a moment.

Dong Xiuzhi’s perception was accurate; indeed, Chen Fei had directed all the immense power contained within the sword formation toward Dong Xiuzhi. As a result, Zheng Guangfei and the others now felt a sudden lightness in their bodies, and the discomforting weight had dissipated.

However, during the heat of the battle, this abrupt shift in gravity left them somewhat uneasy. Although the adjustment only took a moment, it was still necessary.

Chen Fei approached Zheng Guangfei, activating both the Suppressing Dragon Elephant’s Body Suppression and Spirit Suppression techniques simultaneously. Immense power surged forth in an instant, causing slight ripples to appear in the air around Chen Fei’s body.

With a sweeping sword strike, a black streak shot into the sky and collided with Zheng Guangfei’s blade.

“Boom!”

While Zheng Guangfei was struggling against the sword threads and adjusting to the changing gravity, he was suddenly struck by Chen Fei’s sword. His eyes involuntarily widened.

The sword threads and the shifting gravity were discomforts, inflicting no harm on Zheng Guangfei. However, feeling the tremendous force transmitted through the blade, Zheng Guangfei could no longer maintain his indifferent demeanor.

“Bang!”

Zheng Guangfei was utterly unable to maintain his form, and he was sent flying backward, smashing through several large trees before becoming embedded in the ground with a dull thud.

Dong Xiuzhi and the others witnessing this scene couldn’t help but be shaken.

What kind of power was this? Though the Zhongyuan Sword was extraordinary, Chen Fei hadn’t even cultivated it to the pinnacle, and his current cultivation level had only reached the early stages of the Aperture Tempering realm. How could he possess such incredible strength?

Even Chen Fei himself was taken aback. While he had sensed his strength growing as he practiced the Suppressing Dragon Elephant’s Spirit Suppression technique recently, there hadn’t been a direct point of comparison until now.

At this moment, a single sword strike had sent Zheng Guangfei flying so far that he couldn’t even muster the strength to resist.

Back when he encountered Dai Fangxuan from the Rain Pavilion on the road to Qin Hai City, although the Suppressing Dragon Elephant technique could subdue him, it hadn’t been to such an exaggerated extent.

Chen Fei turned to look at Shi Zhengwu standing beside him. Shi Zhengwu felt a slight tremor in his heart for some reason, and an inexplicable sense of dread crept up from the depths of his soul.

Chen Fei had given them one shock after another, and it was becoming too much. The attempt to besiege him from the beginning of this encounter had already gone awry.

Even though it was supposed to be three against one, they hadn’t even managed to get close to him. Instead, it appeared as if Chen Fei had single-handedly surrounded all three of them.

Chen Fei glanced at Shi Zhengwu, his figure flashed, and he sprinted towards the distance.

If it had just been Shi Zhengwu and Zheng Guangfei, Chen Fei probably wouldn’t have run. Although he couldn’t guarantee that he could directly overpower the two of them, he was certain that he wouldn’t be the one fleeing in the end.

However, there was still Dong Xiuzhi behind them, whose cultivation was about to break through to the mid-stage of the Aperture Tempering realm. Even with Chen Fei’s immense strength, facing all three of them in a siege would be too challenging.

Seeing Chen Fei’s incredible power, the three of them would likely avoid a direct confrontation and instead focus on avoiding a head-on battle. They knew they couldn’t kill Chen Fei for sure, and there was a risk involved. In such a situation, Chen Fei’s best option was to run.

His figure turned into an afterimage as he executed the Soaring Heaven technique to its utmost, disappearing from the sight of Dong Xiuzhi and the others in the blink of an eye..
