Chapter 566: Who Can Take It?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Kang Hongdao sensed the dissipation of Zhou Chongyi’s aura, his mind went blank, and another expert appeared, launching a surprise attack on Zhou Chongyi?
The strength of this assailant was even more terrifying than Chen Fei before him? Under a single sword strike, there was no possibility of even a momentary resistance!
Before Kang Hongdao could think any further, the Qianyuan Sword in Chen Fei’s hand collided with Kang Hongdao’s blade.
Kang Hongdao dared to engage in direct combat with Chen Fei because he knew Zhou Chongyi would support him from the side. With the combined efforts of the two, they might not necessarily lose to Chen Fei.
But now that Zhou Chongyi was dead, relying solely on Kang Hongdao’s strength, how could he be a match for Chen Fei? Even though Kang Hongdao was not considered weak, being in the mid-stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, the outcome was already decided.
“Boom!”
Amidst a loud crash, Kang Hongdao spewed out a mouthful of blood mist, and his body involuntarily flew backward.
Kang Hongdao desperately tried to dissipate the immense force within his body, but this power was so terrifying that Kang Hongdao couldn’t dispel it in a short time.
“Swoosh!”
The sound of the sword blade cutting through the air resounded, and Kang Hongdao looked up to see Chen Fei already in front of him, another sword thrusting towards him at this moment.
Without giving any time for relief, a plea of desperation appeared on Kang Hongdao’s face. He wanted to beg for mercy, he wanted to live, he didn’t want to die like this.
However, before Kang Hongdao’s mouth could even move, Chen Fei’s sword blade came down forcefully like a mountain, crushing down.
“Boom!”
The sea surface beneath Chen Fei’s feet sunk tens of meters, countless ripples spread out. Kang Hongdao’s body stiffened, his eyes fixed on Chen Fei, his breath dissipating into nothingness.
Chen Fei’s Qianyuan Sword trembled slightly, bursting with sword essence, and Kang Hongdao’s body turned into ashes.
Another surge of spiritual essence entered the Qianyuan Sword, the light on the sword’s body flickering unpredictably.
Tong Linyun, not far away, watched in shock as Chen Fei successively killed Zhou Chongyi and Kang Hongdao, along with the earlier incident involving Liao Minglei, three mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators had died.
Just a moment ago, Tong Linyun had been besieged by Liao Minglei and the others, her own injuries accumulating, while Liao Minglei and his companions remained unscathed.
Each time they attacked her, Liao Minglei and the others seemed as relaxed as taking a stroll in the park. If it weren’t for their reluctance to harm themselves, Tong Linyun wouldn’t have been able to hold on for so long.
Yet, these three mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators had now fallen to Chen Fei, the young man Tong Linyun had previously considered talented but in need of time to mature.
“Let’s go!”
Chen Fei gathered the belongings of Zhou Chongyi and the others, then swiftly approached Tong Linyun’s side. With a single stroke of his sword, he erased all traces of their presence. He then grabbed her shoulder and vanished from the spot.
Chen Fei’s appearance on this deserted island was purely under the watchful eyes of the heavens. This was one of the safest routes back to Sea Dominion City.
Tong Linyun had originally been running in the direction of Sea Dominion City but had been forced to stop on this deserted island.
Confirming that there were no other strong individuals around Tong Linyun, Chen Fei proceeded to eliminate Zhou Chongyi and the others before rescuing her.
The battle just now had ended within an extremely short period, wasting no time for Chen Fei. In fact, he even gained a few Qiankun Bags.
Upon returning to Sea Dominion City, Chen Fei had no intention of leaving the city again in the short term.
Returning safely to Sea Dominion City would bring its own troubles, but staying within the city was undoubtedly the safest option. With this task as a foundation, Sea Dominion City wouldn’t assign any other tasks to Chen Fei in the short term.
It could be said that this one task had effectively completed Chen Fei’s task quota for the foreseeable future.
Chen Fei held Tong Linyun’s arm, using his elemental power to heal her injuries. Tong Linyun, in a daze, leaned against Chen Fei, and soon fell unconscious.
Tong Linyun’s injuries had actually reached the level of affecting her essence. The fact that she could hold on showed her incredibly strong willpower.
With the assistance of the Heavenly Eye, Chen Fei’s journey ahead was smooth and uneventful. There were no further surprises, and they finally returned to Sea Dominion City.
Upon their return to the city, Tong Linyun woke up to find herself leaning against Chen Fei’s back, her cheeks flushing red.
Especially after the recent battle, Tong Linyun’s clothes were already tattered and torn. Although Chen Fei had draped a cloak over her, she still felt a bit shy.
Chen Fei led Tong Linyun to the front of the task hall. Just as they were about to enter, they noticed the figure of Qin Haishan appearing from behind. Surprisingly, Qin Haishan had returned to Sea Dominion City later than Chen Fei.
Worried about possible interceptions outside the city, Qin Haishan lacked Chen Fei’s exceptional eye technique and naturally took a longer route back for safety.
Seeing Chen Fei, Qin Haishan was overjoyed. He hadn’t expected Chen Fei to return to the city faster than himself after intercepting Zhao Chengzhong and the others.
Qin Haishan didn’t inquire about how Chen Fei managed to escape back, but he remembered one thing: his life had been saved by Chen Fei.
Without Chen Fei, facing two mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators, Qin Haishan knew he wouldn’t have stood a chance.
Chen Fei and the others entered the task hall, submitted their mission, and were then taken to a secluded chamber.
“The target location is a Formless Realm Formation… On our way back, we were intercepted…”
Inside the chamber, Chen Fei recounted the events of the mission in detail. When he mentioned the Formless Realm Formation, Sun Lixin’s expression couldn’t help but change.
Sun Lixin hadn’t expected this emergency mission to involve a Formless Realm Formation. Being an attendant in the task hall, Sun Lixin naturally understood what a Formless Realm Formation was.
He then heard about Chen Fei and the others being intercepted, with Xu Wucheng and Guo Huasheng still missing.
Sun Lixin didn’t dare delay and immediately reported the situation. Soon, a team of five late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators disappeared within Sea Dominion City.
Given the amount of time that had passed, as Chen Fei had mentioned, three late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators against Xu Wucheng would likely have had grim odds.
Regardless, it was necessary to send someone out to search, or it would be too disheartening.
“I want to see the Alliance Leader!” Chen Fei said after Sun Lixin returned.
In Ning Yanding’s memories, Chen Fei had seen the faces of several traitors. Sharing this information would be hard for others to believe, even for Sun Lixin, who was an attendant in the task hall, as he didn’t have such authority.
Therefore, Chen Fei could only meet with Min Yanluo. Within the Thousand Feathers Alliance, only someone like Min Yanluo, at the Mountain Sea Realm, could make decisive decisions.
Moreover, Min Yanluo’s tolerance for traitors would likely be the lowest.
Sun Lixin looked at Chen Fei, pondered for a moment, and said, “I cannot decide whether the Alliance Leader will see you, but I can inform him of your request!”
“Thank you!” Chen Fei bowed.
“For the time being, it’s best for you not to leave the city. Within the city, no one dares to do anything to you,” Sun Lixin advised.
“Understood!” Chen Fei and the others nodded.
Sun Lixin watched as Chen Fei and the others disappeared from the task hall. He quickly reported the results of the emergency mission and also mentioned Chen Fei’s request to see the Alliance Leader.
That was all Sun Lixin could do. He couldn’t fully anticipate how the higher-ups would decide.
The rewards for this emergency mission hadn’t been distributed yet. The outcome couldn’t simply be determined by Chen Fei’s request. There needed to be a validation process, which would take some time.
The Formless Realm Formation couldn’t be ignored within Sea Dominion City.
“Do you have a place to stay?” Tong Linyun asked Chen Fei as they walked down the street, her eyes shimmering with a faint light.
“I just arrived in Sea Dominion City and received this mission,” Chen Fei replied.
Chen Fei shook his head with a smile and continued, “But I plan to rent a cultivation room. While in Sea Dominion City, I can stay in the cultivation room.”
Sea Dominion City was shrouded by a massive array, and this cultivation room was located near one of the array nodes. Therefore, the spiritual energy contained within was much denser than other places.
Moreover, being near a node meant that the defense array of this cultivation room was connected to the city’s array. It could be said that as long as Sea Dominion City remained intact, no one else could break into this cultivation room.
In terms of safety and privacy, this cultivation room was an excellent choice.
“Really? I happen to be in that area too. What a coincidence,” Tong Linyun said with a slight smile.
Chen Fei glanced at Qin Haishan, who shook his head and said, “I’ll just find a random inn.”
While cultivation rooms had many benefits, they were also expensive. Compared to the immediate effects of pills, the spiritual energy in these rooms was more of an added bonus.
In the southwestern area of Sea Dominion City, the figures of Chen Fei and the others appeared.
Chen Fei noticed that Tong Linyun didn’t seem very familiar with the types of cultivation rooms here, as if it were her first time renting one.
As if sensing Chen Fei’s gaze, Tong Linyun’s cheeks flushed red, but she quickly pretended as if nothing had happened.
As night fell, Chen Fei sat cross-legged in the cultivation room. The furnishings here were extremely simple, designed specifically for cultivation. If one desired a more comfortable place to stay, the inns within the city would be the preferred choice.
Chen Fei looked at the items before him: five Qiankun Bags and five middle-grade spiritual treasures.
Just the five middle-grade spiritual treasures alone were worth nearly eight to nine thousand middle-grade elemental stones, an extremely exaggerated figure.
On the other hand, the items inside the Qiankun Bags were of relatively low value, consisting mostly of cultivation pills, healing elixirs, and some middle-grade elemental stones.
Adding everything together, including the five middle-grade spiritual treasures, the total value exceeded ten thousand middle-grade elemental stones.
“Hum!”
The array in Chen Fei’s cultivation room trembled slightly, indicating someone was seeking an audience outside.
Chen Fei stowed the Qiankun Bags in his sleeve and approached the door of the cultivation room, opening it to find Tong Linyun standing outside.
“The injuries in my body are too severe. I wonder if you can help with the healing?” Tong Linyun’s eyes carried a hint of bewilderment as she stared directly at Chen Fei.
For female martial artists, the stronger their strength, the higher their demands for their own appearance. At this moment, Tong Linyun looked like a young woman in her twenties.
Her skin seemed delicate enough to be pierced by a gentle breeze, and beneath the loose-fitting clothes, her seductive figure was hard to conceal. The slight paleness on her face due to injury only added to her pitiful appearance.
Chen Fei’s expression was slightly stunned. He stepped aside, welcoming Tong Linyun into the cultivation room.
Moments later, the spiritual energy in the cultivation room began to tremble rhythmically.
Sometimes it surged like raging waves, engulfing heaven and earth. Sometimes it flowed like a clear spring, unceasing and continuous!
Tong Linyun was skilled in defense, but today, she suddenly found herself unable to withstand Chen Fei’s attacks.
Wave after wave, it was relentless.. Anyone else in her place would struggle to endure it!
