“Clang!”
The resounding sound of the Qianyuan Sword echoed in the hall, returning to Chen Fei’s hand, which excited the Qianyuan Sword even more.
A much stronger sensation than before filled Chen Fei’s consciousness.
The final test was to use one’s own power. Although he had reached the Peak of the Aperture Tempering realm just now, the difference in combat power at the same realm was significant.
Especially the physical strength bestowed by the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, the surging power was unparalleled.
Chen Fei looked at the dozen or so statues around him, finally fixing his gaze on a figure holding a blade.
The aura of these dozen or so statues was almost indistinguishable in intensity, and among these individuals, many were now leaders of various factions.
As for the person holding the blade, Chen Fei had also heard of him. His name was Yan Xuanji, the current Sect Master of the Tiandao Sect, and he had already reached the late Aperture Tempering realm in his cultivation.
In the entire Thousand Feathers Alliance, Yan Xuanji was a prominent figure, and the image of him here had been left behind over a hundred years ago.
In the late Aperture Tempering realm, he was a person of some significance within the Thousand Feathers Alliance, but in the face of the powerful figure of Master Haiyue, he still lacked a bit.
Therefore, Yan Xuanji’s image was still preserved in the Haiyue Cave and had not been intentionally diminished.
Only the individual who broke through to the Mountain Sea realm several decades ago had his image removed from the Haiyue Cave by Master Haiyue himself as a sign of respect.
Chen Fei was already aware of the fact that images were left behind in the Haiyue Cave before he came. However, he still came.
Chen Fei had many secrets, with the biggest one being that his origins and soul came from another world. As for cultivation techniques, whether it was the Primordial Sword Scripture or the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, they were all considered insignificant in the face of the Mountain Sea realm.
Especially the Primordial Sword Scripture, while not ordinary, there were quite a few within the Thousand Feathers Alliance who could stand alongside it or even surpass it.
Only the Suppressing Dragon Elephant was truly formidable in the Aperture Tempering realm, and it would probably still be remarkable in the Mountain Sea realm. However, it was ultimately limited to the Aperture Tempering realm.
Unless the third part of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, the Soul Suppression technique, which was fully deduced by its creator back then, was brought to fruition, the Suppressing Dragon Elephant’s level would rise even higher. But for now, it was only the Spirit and Body suppression techniques, which were nothing to speak of in front of the Mountain Sea realm.
During the previous trials, Chen Fei had seen many cultivation techniques and concepts within the scrolls, which were highly profound and mystical.
However, as beneficial as they might be for those in the Aperture Tempering realm, they were only a small part of the trials for Master Haiyue.
Just like Chen Fei now, no matter how profound those body tempering cultivation techniques were for the Aperture Tempering realm, they were of no assistance to him. The levels were different, and what he cared about had completely changed.
At this moment, if an exceptionally talented and outstanding body tempering practitioner were to appear in front of Chen Fei, he would at most think, “Oh, not bad,” and that’s it.
The heights were different, the positions they stood in were different, and the things they considered were vastly diverse.
As Chen Fei gazed, the metallic surface of Yan Xuanji’s body peeled away, and he turned to look at Chen Fei, emitting a fierce aura.
“Please!”
Yan Xuanji leaped in front of Chen Fei, producing a dull sound. Yan Xuanji’s body weight far exceeded what a Aperture Tempering realm cultivator should possess.
“Please!” Chen Fei responded with a courteous gesture.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Xuanji had already arrived in front of Chen Fei, and the blade in his hand moved like a coiling serpent, landing in front of Chen Fei.
Chen Fei’s gaze flickered, and with the Thousand Threads Technique, Yan Xuanji’s blade technique was vividly displayed in front of Chen Fei. However, Chen Fei couldn’t see any weaknesses in this blade technique.
Yan Xuanji’s technique was not flawless, but he used the characteristics of his own cultivation technique to forcefully conceal these weaknesses.
Just by looking at it, one could no longer tell which parts were light and which were heavy.
Compared to when Geng Wangsheng forcibly suppressed his technique with mental power back then, the details displayed by Yan Xuanji at this moment were far superior to Geng Wangsheng’s previous efforts.
A faint smile appeared on Chen Fei’s face as he moved forward instead of retreating. He extended his foot and lifted the Qianyuan Sword in his hand.
With the roar of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, the blackened Qjanyuan Sword clashed with Yan Xuanji’s blade.
“Boom!”
Amidst the explosion, Yan Xuanji involuntarily took a step back, and the blade in his hand became difficult to hold, almost colliding with his own chest.
At this moment, Yan Xuanji was just a mirror image, devoid of emotions. Even though his technique had been forcibly broken, his expression remained cold.
But if someone else were to witness this scene, they would probably be astounded. The techniques of the Tiandao Sect were renowned for their power and heaviness within the Thousand Feathers Alliance, and the sharpness of their sword techniques was considered secondary. In direct confrontations, it was almost unheard of for disciples of the Tiandao Sect to retreat.
Yan Xuanji’s ability to win the top spot in that trial back then, whether it was in terms of cultivation, technique, or even body refinement, had reached an extremely high level.
Without this, Yan Xuanji would not have been able to claim the first place at that time.
And after breaking through to the Aperture Tempering realm, Yan Xuanji had showcased the full potential of the Tiandao Sect’s techniques, emphasizing this characteristic to the fullest extent.
However, in this power struggle, Yan Xuanji found himself at a clear disadvantage.
Chen Fei took a step forward, thrusting the Qianyuan Sword ahead. A burst of sonic clouds erupted in front of the sword blade as Chen Fei’s attack continued.
With his body breaking through its limits, Chen Fei’s strength had reached an unparalleled level within the Aperture Tempering realm. The Tiandao Sect’s techniques, no matter how profound, were ultimately limited to the Aperture Tempering realm.
Yet, at this moment, Chen Fei had already partially entered the realm of the Aperture Tempering realm. Though it was just a small step, it was already beyond what a Aperture Tempering realm practitioner could resist.
“Boom!”
The Qianyuan Sword pierced Yan Xuanji’s blade, and Yan Xuanji couldn’t hold onto the blade, which collided directly with his chest.
A sound akin to the collision of metal and iron resounded as Yan Xuanji’s chest, from flesh to bones, shattered inch by inch.
Chen Fei’s figure flickered as he swept his sword across Yan Xuanji’s neck. Yan Xuanji’s form stiffened slightly, turned into a stream of light, and transformed back into a statue, landing in its original position.
Three strikes, and Chen Fei had slain the former top-ranked participant in the trial. At this moment, Chen Fei’s strength resembled anything but that of an Aperture Tempering realm practitioner.
“Hum!”
The entire palace trembled slightly, and a statue of Chen Fei appeared in the palace. Around, it seemed like celestial music was playing, as if the entire Haiyue Cave was celebrating Chen Fei’s victory.
At this moment, below the Heavenly Staircase, those who were lucky enough not to encounter Chen Fei’s mirror image couldn’t help but look up at the palace above.
Just now, the Haiyue Cave had reported the news that someone had defeated the previous trial’s top participant and forcefully entered the Heavenly Staircase Hall.
The remaining individuals looked somewhat complex as the gap was truly significant. They were extremely curious about who this person was. The trials were almost over, yet they had no idea who had defeated them.
Moreover, with that person’s mirror image guarding the Heavenly Staircase, they didn’t even have the qualifications to enter the Heavenly Staircase Hall. This feeling of frustration and helplessness was truly infuriating.
Outside the Haiyue Cave, everyone turned their heads towards the location of the mansion.
The Haiyue Cave was trembling slightly at this moment, as if in celebration. The condensed Vital energy drifted in all directions.
“The top-ranked participant has been decided, that was fast!”
“I wonder who it is.”
“I guess it’s one of those few individuals; we’ll find out soon.”
Many people stared intently at the mansion, and various factions that had come here also focused their attention, ready to retrieve their disciples.
Thousands of miles away, high above the clouds, Master Haiyue’s tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and above the sky, it seemed as if thunder flashed, shaking the hearts and minds of those below.
His spiritual treasure had delivered the news that the top-ranked participant of this generation had been decided. However, Master Haiyue didn’t bother to check. He simply rolled over and continued his deep slumber. He had no interest in the affairs of these younger generations.
The creation of the Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Ranking and the Haiyue Cave was solely to nurture his spiritual treasure. As for who was the top-ranked participant or the hidden dragon, Master Haiyue had seen it for so many years that he no longer cared.
Inside the Heavenly Staircase Hall of the Haiyue Cave, Chen Fei looked at the three items floating in front of him with some surprise.
Perhaps because Chen Fei had demonstrated such strength, his spiritual treasure had directly inquired about his intentions, and then these three items appeared.
The Sea Blossom Flower, a limit-breaking spiritual material, could be ingested directly to break the mental restrictions of a Peak Aperture Tempering realm practitioner.
Gengjin, the same piece as before, could enhance the quality of the Qianyuan Sword. With the addition of some other treasures, it could elevate the Qianyuan Sword to the level of a low-grade magical weapon.
The Jade Slip contained a cultivation technique for the Combined Aperture Tempering realm. According to the information from the spiritual treasure, this technique was considered relatively ordinary within the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.
The top-ranked participant of the Haiyue Cave could, at most, obtain these items, and no more. The Haiyue Cave would not provide any additional rewards. After all, all the trial participants had their respective sects and had no personal connection with Master Haiyue. Providing these rewards to the top-ranked participant was already considered quite generous.
Chen Fei had no complaints whatsoever. At the very least, his most basic goal for coming to the Haiyue Cave had been achieved, which was obtaining the Sea Blossom Flower. Gengjin and the cultivation technique for the Aperture Tempering realm were extra surprises.
When Chen Fei broke through to the Aperture Tempering realm, these two items would immediately come in handy, saving him a considerable amount of effort.
Chen Fei collected the three items, glanced around, and in the next moment, his figure slowly disappeared from the Heavenly Staircase Hall.
At the same time, on the Heavenly Staircase, as other trial participants encountered Chen Fei’s mirror image one by one, they also began to dissipate and appear outside the Haiyue Cave.
While the participants had received rewards to varying degrees, not a single one was happy. It was like being blindfolded, beaten up, and not even knowing who had beaten you. It was frustrating beyond belief.
Chen Fei didn’t appear outside the Haiyue Cave but was directly moved several hundred miles away. This was a privilege granted by the Haiyue Cave because, after all, wealth could stir people’s hearts.
Chen Fei’s figure gradually became clear, sensing the three treasures in his possession, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
Suddenly, Chen Fei’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he used his right hand to touch his own forehead. The Sword Return Eye, and the Slaughter Spirit Technique activated. Chen Fei immediately severed his own presence and the residual aura left in that place.
In the next moment, Chen Fei’s figure flickered, and he plunged directly into the deep sea. In the blink of an eye, he had disappeared without a trace..
