What that meant was that if you were really surrounded by monsters, you might not even have a chance to escape.
Chen Fei stepped up to the counter and took on the task of searching for hidden monsters.
“By the way, can personal tasks be posted here?” Chen Fei suddenly asked after accepting the task.
“Not all tasks can be posted; it depends on the specific content of the task,” the steward of the Mission Hall replied with a smile upon hearing Chen Fei’s question.
“I’m looking for information on the inheritance of a martial art technique,” Chen Fei said, handing over a jade slip.
What Chen Fei wanted to find was information on the Slaughter Spirit Technique.
If Chen Fei succeeds in finding the Myriad Bamboo next, his strength will increase rapidly, which could easily lead to trouble.
If Chen Fei can obtain an advanced version of the Slaughter Spirit Technique, then even after advancing to the later stages or even the peak of the Mountain Sea Realm, he won’t have to worry too much.
The steward of the Mission Hall took the jade slip and glanced at its contents, which introduced the Slaughter Spirit Technique.
“You can post this. The cost is ten top-grade spirit stones.”
“Thank you!”
Chen Fei nodded and placed the spirit stones on the counter.
For the reward, Chen Fei opted for a face-to-face discussion, determining the value of the information based on the person providing it.
Leaving the Mission Hall, Chen Fei’s figure flickered as he headed towards the direction of Thousand Geese City.
His Water Source Shadow Technique was nearing Great Completion. Once perfected, Chen Fei planned to start searching for monster strongholds across the entire Middle Continent.
Three quarters of an hour later, Chen Fei furrowed his brow suddenly. The dream web within the Black Divine pattern on his palm trembled slightly.
With his proficiency in the Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique, Chen Fei could now constantly deploy the dream web within the Black Divine pattern. If any follower of the Black Divine approached nearby, the dream web would show signs of disturbance.
Chen Fei looked up, swiftly scanning his surroundings. Within tens of miles, there was no sign of any human presence. Clearly, the follower of the Black Divine was currently in a state of retreat.
Glancing to his left, Chen Fei noticed a sect named Hidden Sword Palace, where the strongest member was at the mid-stage of the Mountain Sea Realm.
Their strength was somewhat inferior compared to Thousand Geese City. At least Zhao Ruizheng, ostensibly the strongest in Thousand Geese City, had reached the realm of the Six Divine Palaces.
The follower of the Black Divine sensed by Chen Fei’s dream web was not from Hidden Sword Palace but from another location. Obviously, there was a follower of the Black Divine intending to target Hidden Sword Palace.
Chen Fei activated the Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique, causing slight ripples in the dream web. Through the subtle feedback from the dream web, he sensed the realm of this follower of the Black Divine.
“Late stage of the Mountain Sea Realm!”
Chen Fei’s eyelids lifted slightly as he confirmed the true realm of the follower of the Black Divine.
Twenty miles away, in the interlayer of space, Duan Suizhi looked at Chen Fei ahead and immediately recognized his identity.
Back when they targeted Thousand Geese City, Duan Suizhi and Tang Zhiliang had long ago gathered intelligence on the personnel inside Thousand Geese City, especially regarding Chen Fei and Zhao Ruizheng.
Duan Suizhi’s gaze flickered. Recently, the Sacred City had taken action, capturing several followers of the Black Divine, which had deterred many.
However, after some time passed, the followers of the Black Divine were once again becoming restless. Whether influenced by the insidious presence of the Black Divine or driven by the desire for its rewards, they were back in action.
Duan Suizhi chose Hidden Sword Palace, weaker than Thousand Geese City and manageable for him alone.
However, Duan Suizhi hadn’t expected to encounter someone from Thousand Geese City before he could act.
After leveling Hidden Sword Palace, Duan Suizhi and Tang Zhiliang’s next target would be Thousand Geese City.
Remembering Tang Zhiliang’s remark about Chen Fei being peculiar, Duan Suizhi suppressed his urge to act immediately. He decided to let this person live a few more days. Today, he would deal with Hidden Sword Palace first.
Duan Suizhi watched as Chen Fei approached steadily, the distance between them narrowing to about five or six miles.
Remaining motionless, Duan Suizhi coldly observed Chen Fei flying closer. In his state of retreat, even at the peak of the Mountain Sea Realm, Duan Suizhi wasn’t worried about being detected.
“Boom!”
Suddenly, a startling thunderclap echoed through the sky. Duan Suizhi looked up in surprise to see dark clouds gathering overhead, countless bolts of lightning interweaving within them.
“This isn’t right!”
Duan Suizhi’s heart raced. This wasn’t a natural phenomenon but something triggered by a martial technique’s aura.
Just as Duan Suizhi was about to move, lightning descended abruptly from the sky, completely enveloping an area of about one mile around him.
Thrown out of his state of retreat by the thunderstorm, Duan Suizhi appeared in the midst of the lightning.
Abruptly, from a distance of five or six miles away, Chen Fei appeared right in front of Duan Suizhi. The distance between them was now less than a hundred paces.
“You… You’re seeking death!”
Seeing Chen Fei attack, Duan Suizhi erupted in rage. He had intended to let Chen Fei live a few more days, but now Chen Fei dared to strike first.
As for why he had been detected, Duan Suizhi couldn’t comprehend it. However, once he brought Chen Fei to the brink of death, he would surely find out the reason.
“It’s actually him!”
Chen Fei was somewhat surprised to see Duan Suizhi; truly, life brings unexpected encounters.
In his state of retreat, Chen Fei couldn’t accurately pinpoint Duan Suizhi’s exact location. He could only rely on the dream web to make a rough estimation, hence Chen Fei used attacks with wide coverage.
If he could accurately locate his opponent, even in retreat, Duan Suizhi’s defenses would weaken. Chen Fei could have teleported over and struck with a single sword, without the current complications.
“Boom!”
Duan Suizhi’s blade clashed against the Qianyuan Sword, causing a tremendous explosion that shot up into the sky.
Seeking a swift resolution, Duan Suizhi held nothing back in his strike. However, under the Qianyuan Sword’s defense, Chen Fei remained steadfast, effortlessly receiving the full force of his opponent’s blow.
With the combination of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant technique, the innate ability to seal Prison Suppressions, the Adamantine Body, and mastery of the Purple Sky Stellar Technique, his defense was beyond measure.
Duan Suizhi’s attack pushed the innate talent to its limit, yet the forty percent reduction in damage from the Adamantine Body was not fully utilized.
Duan Suizhi, with his advanced Mountain Sea Realm and the support of six Divine Palaces, was formidable. However, Chen Fei’s layered defense was even more potent!
“You…”
Duan Suizhi’s words were cut short as he suddenly sensed Chen Fei’s aura skyrocketing in an instant, his eyes involuntarily widening.
The Suppressing Dragon Elephant technique surged, and the power from Duan Suizhi’s previous strike was directly assimilated by Chen Fei.
With the Purple Sky Stellar Technique, four stars lit up on Chen Fei’s body, adding another constellation. At this moment, Chen Fei, equivalent to the six constellations of the Mountain Sea Realm, reached the peak of the mid-stage of the Mountain Sea Realm.
Sword Dominates the Galaxy!
The innate talents of Sword Mastery, Endless Regeneration, Adamantine Body, Teleportation, and Prison Suppression were interconnected, and an illusory sword shadow appeared on the constellation. The violent power exploded directly within Chen Fei’s body.
All five innate talents were fully mastered. With Sword Dominates the Galaxy bringing a surge in status, Chen Fei’s state was pushed to its peak.
With the innate talents’ normal state already offering enhancements, the talents continued to stack on this foundation.
Attack increased by forty percent, defense increased by sixty percent, and attack and movement speed increased by thirty percent.
Soul Ignition!
Flames ignited on Chen Fei’s primary soul, adding another surge of power into his body, like adding fuel to a fire, a phantom flame directly appearing on Chen Fei’s body.
Divine Blessing Talent, the power of Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique extended to Chen Fei’s primary soul. His soul burned and recovered simultaneously, achieving a remarkable equilibrium.
“Now it’s my turn. Please enlighten me!”
Chen Fei looked towards Duan Suizhi, a smile playing on his lips. With a slight turn of the Qianyuan Sword in his hand, the Bird Cloud Blade shattered in an instant.
In the next moment, the blade of the Qianyuan Sword had already appeared in front of Duan Suizhi.
“Impossible! How can there be such power at the mid-stage of the Mountain Sea Realm? This is impossible!”
Duan Suizhi roared madly in his heart. Unable to escape, the speed of Chen Fei’s attack with the sword was extraordinarily fast.
The only thing Duan Suizhi could do was to crazily burn his soul. The interconnected array of six Divine Palaces within him trembled violently, and the seventh Divine Palace collapsed instantly.
A vast amount of elemental power surged back into the other six Divine Palaces. A phantom of a giant roc appeared behind Duan Suizhi.
Duan Suizhi firmly defended against the Bird Cloud Blade in front of him, the giant roc’s wings folding protectively around him.
“Hum!”
With a resounding hum, the Qianyuan Sword clashed against the Bird Cloud Blade, and the phantom of the giant roc behind Duan Suizhi shattered instantly.
The Qianyuan Sword showed no sign of stopping, relentless and unstoppable. After shattering the Bird Cloud Blade with ease, it crashed directly into Duan Suizhi’s body.
A massive ripple emanated from Duan Suizhi’s body. He stared wide-eyed at Chen Fei, and in the next moment, his entire body exploded into a mist of blood.
