Chapter 583: Overconfident

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“What are you waiting for? Come over here!”

Hearing Liu Wanggu’s words, Chen Fei chuckled softly and gestured with his finger towards Liu Wanggu.

Seeing Chen Fei’s gesture, Liu Wanggu couldn’t help but be startled, then a surge of anger rushed to his head. Being controlled by the Thousand-Eyed Ghoul, emotions wouldn’t dissipate; they would only become more paranoid.

Liu Wanggu had intentionally said those words to Chen Fei just now, wanting to see Chen Fei’s panicked expression, even hoping he would directly beg for mercy.

Given it was a face-off between a mid-level Combined Aperture Tempering realm against an early-level Combined Aperture Tempering realm, there was no surprise. Even the geniuses among the top powers couldn’t beat a mid-level Combined Aperture Tempering realm when they were at an early stage.

Being able to briefly contend was already remarkable; most could only exchange a few moves before getting injured, then they would be defeated, leaving only one or two moves to defend.

Encountering an attack from a mid-level Combined Aperture Tempering realm while being at an early stage, the best course of action was to escape. Being able to flee was already fortunate; most didn’t even have the chance to run.

And at this moment, within the formation, it was impossible to break free in a short time, so the golden opportunity for escape naturally disappeared.

The two people lying not far away from Liu Wanggu were at an early Combined Aperture Tempering realm. Faced with Liu Wanggu’s attack, they had no resistance at all and were all killed within ten moves.

The consecutive killings of two individuals heightened Liu Wanggu’s emotions, leading him to want to mock Chen Fei. However, instead of begging for mercy, Chen Fei responded with a provocative gesture.

Absolutely clueless about life and death!

“I hope you’ll be this tough later!”

Liu Wanggu laughed furiously, his figure flickering as he disappeared from his original spot, reappearing several meters away from Chen Fei. A slender sword, as flexible as boneless, materialized in Liu Wanggu’s hand, swirling towards Chen Fei’s neck.

First, weaken and cripple, then slowly torture. Before the next person appeared in this area, Liu Wanggu had plenty of time to torment Chen Fei.

Was he being stubborn? Chen Fei would soon be begging for mercy, utterly helpless!

Liu Wanggu’s face contorted with cruel satisfaction. The sword’s sword essence was as thin as a strand of hair, even finer than a strand of hair.

One Thread Heaven!

This sword technique’s name derived from its barely perceptible sword essence, which not only made it easier to break through the opponent’s defense but also, upon striking the opponent’s body, allowed the sword essence to penetrate through the pores in an instant.

Not only could it control the opponent, but it also induced excruciating, unbearable pain, rendering them agonized.

Pain, in fact, serves as a form of protection; only by feeling pain will a person instinctively avoid it, preventing the injury from worsening. If one is unaware of pain, stepping on a nail might go unnoticed, allowing the nail to remain lodged in the body.

Touching fire may only result in blackened skin, but without pain, one may not know to avoid it.

However, excessively intense pain sometimes directly destroys a person’s will, leaving their mind in a state of paralysis. While ordinary individuals may succumb to this, even martial practitioners, despite having stronger wills, can still be affected by overwhelmingly intense pain, hindering their physical movements.

This sword technique operated on this principle, not only boasting strong defensive penetration but also directly influencing the opponent’s physical movements, providing a more advantageous environment for one’s next attack.

“Clang!”

The Qianyuan Sword emitted a sharp sword cry, its sharp sword intent instantly spreading in all directions. With the perfection stage of the Profound Heavenly Sword, even with just the power of elemental force, Chen Fei was able to stand proud against a mid-level Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

Even if the geniuses from those top powers were to come, it would be the same. Despite their talents, they wouldn’t be able to comprehend the internal martial arts to such a degree at the mid-level Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

Sensing the aura emanating from Chen Fei, Liu Wanggu’s mocking smile froze abruptly. Mid-level Combined Aperture Tempering realm? This youngster’s true cultivation has actually reached the mid-level Combined Aperture Tempering realm? Wasn’t it just recently that he broke through to the early-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm, not even ten years ago?

Back when he cornered Chen Fei in the marketplace, Liu Wanggu had deliberately sought information about him to ensure he had no powerful backing and had only recently broken through to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm. It was only then that Liu Wanggu dared to approach with such imposing arrogance.

As a result, today, Chen Fei suddenly displayed the realm of the mid-level Combined Aperture Tempering realm, which momentarily left Liu Wanggu struggling to accept. And it wasn’t just breaking through to the mid-level Combined Aperture Tempering realm; he had already taken a step further into the mid-level Combined Aperture Tempering realm, reaching the fourth stage of Combined Aperture Tempering realm?

Even the prodigies couldn’t cultivate this fast. How on earth did Chen Fei cultivate?

Moreover, the majestic sword intent contained within this aura clearly indicated that the martial arts he had learned were extraordinary, perhaps even stronger than the One Thread Heaven in his hands.

Not only was the level of martial arts higher, but Chen Fei had probably also comprehended these martial arts to an extremely high degree. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to exude such a sharp aura, which was truly awe-inspiring.

In the blink of an eye, Liu Wanggu had discerned Chen Fei’s specific position of strength.

With this realization, Liu Wanggu’s expression darkened. Both at the fourth stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, with no advantage in martial arts, and perhaps even inferior in understanding martial arts compared to Chen Fei.

It was no longer a question of whether he could kill the other party; after a hundred exchanges, he feared that he would ultimately be the one defeated.

The prey had suddenly transformed into a hunter, and a slightly stronger hunter at that. How could Liu Wanggu accept this turn of events?

The task Liu Wanggu had accepted was to kill all early-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm practitioners passing through here. But now, having only killed two people, was he going to fail?

Liu Wanggu hadn’t considered withdrawing. The task he received was the highest order, and he wouldn’t go anywhere until it was completed. Even if it meant death, Liu Wanggu was determined to carry out this mission.

“Hum!”

A surge of elemental force emanated from Liu Wanggu’s body, breaking the seals. And not just one, but two seals were broken simultaneously, as the formidable power surged within Liu Wanggu’s body.

His mind tainted by the Thousand-Eyed Ghoul, while losing his sense of self, in a certain sense, his mind became more refined and singular.

Thus, Liu Wanggu could directly activate two seals, barely managing to control them with his current body and mind. However, it was still somewhat strained, inevitably resulting in damage to his physical body.

But Liu Wanggu paid no heed to these injuries. All he wanted was to slay Chen Fei and continue fulfilling the mission given by his benefactor.

Liu Wanggu locked his gaze onto Chen Fei. At this moment, Liu Wanggu already regarded Chen Fei as an equal opponent. But in the next moment, Liu Wanggu’s pupils involuntarily contracted.

Three layers of elemental force fluctuations emanated from Chen Fei’s body. Liu Wanggu was very familiar with this type of elemental force fluctuation because he had just demonstrated it himself moments ago.

He had opened two seals, and yet the opponent had directly opened three seals?

Both practitioners were evenly matched in cultivation, but the opponent’s martial arts were superior, and now they even opened one more seal than Liu Wanggu. How could he continue the fight?

At this moment, Liu Wanggu’s mind became somewhat chaotic. Should he forcefully open another seal?

But opening two seals had already reached the limit. Opening another one might result in his physical body collapsing before he could even launch an attack against the opponent.

Although Liu Wanggu, tainted by the Thousand-Eyed Ghoul, didn’t fear death, he was unwilling to choose such a meaningless death.

Before Liu Wanggu could figure out how to respond, he saw Chen Fei take a step forward. Ripples spread out from under Chen Fei’s feet, and in a trance, Liu Wanggu seemed to see an ancient and ferocious beast appearing before him.

Standing tall, the terrifying aura ruthlessly crushed his mind, as if it wanted to completely shatter him.

“Ah!”

Liu Wanggu roared, driving away the illusion from his mind. Then, he saw Chen Fei already thrusting a sword towards him.

In an instant, this sword filled Liu Wanggu’s entire field of vision, leaving him with no escape. It seemed as if there was nowhere to hide, and the only way to find release was to surrender to the impending doom!

Instinctively, Liu Wanggu swung the slender sword in his hand, forming a martial art known as “Dragon Subduing.”

He used it to block the incoming attack.

The One Thread Heaven technique focused solely on defense, lacking in offense or counter-defense. It purely relied on defense, utilizing the sword’s curvature resembling a whirlwind to weaken the enemy’s attacks layer by layer.

“Hum!”

The tip of the Qianyuan Sword pierced the front of the Dragon Subduing technique, creating a massive wave that swept through the surroundings. Chen Fei remained expressionless while a faint roar of a dragon echoed within his body.

Meanwhile, Liu Wanggu’s face turned pale in an instant. Despite the layers of weakening, the overwhelming force still ruthlessly crushed his body.

Already pushed to the limit due to employing two seals, his physical body was now being crushed by this tremendous power. The flesh of his arms exploded, revealing bones underneath.

Before Liu Wanggu could make any adjustments, Chen Fei’s Qianyuan Sword paused for a moment before continuing its unstoppable momentum, piercing straight through the entirety of the Dragon Subduing technique.

“Boom!”

Amidst the violent sound, Liu Wanggu’s body flew backward as if it were made of torn cloth. In mid-air, blood gushed uncontrollably from his mouth. Not only was he subjected to the crushing force, but his elemental force also spiraled out of control.

Exceeding one’s control over power might offer assistance, but more often than not, led to self-destruction.

Such was the nature of employing seals. Once the internal balance was disrupted, not only would the opponent’s force damage oneself, but one’s hard-earned cultivated power would also inflict harm.

Suspended in midair, Liu Wanggu’s eyes reflected incredulity and an incomprehensible sense of resentment.

Breaking through from the early-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm to the mid-stage in just a few years, with no apparent background, yet possessing such high-level martial arts, calmly executing three seals without changing expression, and displaying such extraordinary supreme power—all these traits, when found in a single individual, would classify them as a genius. And now, all of these remarkable qualities were concentrated in one person.

Suddenly, Liu Wanggu recalled the gaze Tong Linyun had cast upon him back in the marketplace as if he were regarding an overambitious fool.

At the time, Liu Wanggu hadn’t understood, nor had he considered such implications. But now, with the current situation, Liu Wanggu suddenly realized.

For an ordinary mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm practitioner to confront someone with Chen Fei’s combat prowess, to arrogantly corner them in the marketplace and interrogate them—such actions would seem laughable to those in the know.

“Chi!”

Liu Wanggu felt a sharp pain in his neck, as if understanding what had transpired. The resentment in his eyes grew stronger, but he was already powerless to change anything.

“Thud!”

With a dull thud, Liu Wanggu’s body fell to the ground, his breath dissipating completely..
