Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques Chapter 1092: Chapter 1048 Stepping Stone

Chapter 1092: Chapter 1048 Stepping Stone

Sun Guangyuan’s eyes slightly narrowed, then he lowered his head and did not continue to stare at Chen Fei.

Those at the Cultivation Realm have a particular sense of danger, and the strength of this danger perception varies based on the martial arts practiced and the properties of their Divine Powers.

But staring like that would inevitably raise alarm.

Regarding Chen Fei, the pride of their race, as long as Sun Guangyuan had the chance, he would definitely take pleasure in killing him.

It was not out of envy or anything of the sort, but purely because back in Pushan City, Sun Guangyuan traded Chen Fei’s life for benefits, and yet, Chen Fei did not die.

This was a feud that would not end until death, and the higher the talent displayed by Chen Fei afterward, the stronger Sun Guangyuan’s desire to kill him grew.

As for Chen Fei’s death causing the human race to lose a mighty future warrior, it did influence Sun Guangyuan, since they were all members of the human race.

But what was that influence compared to his own life and death struggle?

Therefore, when the Ice Race and Evil Clans issued the task of a.s.sa.s.sinating Chen Fei, Sun Guangyuan did not hesitate to accept it.

If Chen Fei died, the possible crisis facing Sun Guangyuan would disappear, and he would also gain a hefty reward from the Ice Race and Evil Clans. What was there to hesitate about?

In the past, Sun Guangyuan really could not find an opportunity to kill Chen Fei, especially considering the talent Chen Fei had displayed, the human imperial sovereign would not let him walk the path of peril, not to mention a.s.sign him dangerous missions.

But now it was different, with the arrival of the Wu Meng Clan, no one within the Cultivation Realm in the Black Stone Domain had any privilege, even the ancestors of the Evil Clans had to obediently execute the tasks a.s.signed by the Wu Meng Clan.

Under such circ.u.mstances, where Chen Fei went was not up to Chen Fei or the human race to decide, which gave Sun Guangyuan a perfect opportunity.

The time to kill Chen Fei could not be delayed any longer.

Chen Fei had demonstrated frightening talent outside Jiguang City, acquiring two Rule Crystals and so many top-grade Sixth-Tier spirit materials.

In a little over a hundred years, Chen Fei could have possibly broken through to the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm.

By then, killing Chen Fei would be much more difficult than it was now for Sun Guangyuan, and there could also be other unexpected developments.

Sun Guangyuan did not like unexpected developments, like how Chen Fei safely escaped from Pushan City back to Jiguang City, putting Sun Guangyuan in an extremely pa.s.sive position.

But today, there would be no surprises.

Having killed eight at the Rule Integration Realm Early Stage with ease, his talent was overwhelming!

But that was just the early stage, while Sun Guangyuan had already reached the peak of the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm, only one step away from breaking into the late stages of the Rule Integration Realm.

Killing those at the early stage of the Rule Integration Realm was even easier for Sun Guangyuan!

Sun Guangyuan, hidden within the shadows, gradually approached Chen Fei’s location, the distance between them closing from hundreds of miles to within a hundred miles.

Suddenly, Chen Fei, who was in mid-air, turned his head to look at Sun Guangyuan’s location, then without a word, he flew away toward the distance.

Sun Guangyuan’s brow furrowed slightly, not expecting to be discovered by Chen Fei from only a hundred miles away.

He was cultivating the Shadow Rule, which he was especially adept at hiding, and ordinarily, even if he approached within thirty miles of someone at the early stage of the Rule Integration Realm, many would not be able to sense him.

But now, to be perceived from a hundred miles away.

“A prodigy!”

A mocking smile appeared on Sun Guangyuan’s lips, and his speed suddenly increased.

Being discovered was just that, a mere hundred miles, and now within thousands of miles around, there were no other cultivators at the Rule Integration Realm; enough for Sun Guangyuan to intercept and kill Chen Fei!

“Buzz!”

As Sun Guangyuan leapt into the air, he felt the s.p.a.ce around him become muddy, as if he had crashed into water.

Sun Guangyuan’s eyes narrowed and with a sweep of his right hand, a dark shadow swept out, instantly shattering the muddiness around.

A cold glint filled Sun Guangyuan’s eyes. The odd behavior of s.p.a.ce just now was due to Chen Fei manipulating the s.p.a.ce Rules.

From the extent of the spatial distortion just now, Chen Fei’s grasp of the s.p.a.ce Secondary Rules had improved significantly compared to several months ago.

At this rate of cultivation, a breakthrough to the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm within a few decades was almost a foregone conclusion.

While other cultivators took at least a thousand years or even thousands of years to make a breakthrough and still found themselves stagnating at the early stage of the Rule Integration Realm.

And yet, Chen Fei could break through to the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm in just a few decades. Such talent and insight were truly enviable.

And, even more deserving of death!

Sun Guangyuan swiftly closed the distance between himself and Chen Fei, despite Chen Fei continually manipulating the rules to expand the s.p.a.ce, Sun Guangyuan would always easily slash through it.

No matter how exquisite the skills, when there’s a significant gap in Basic Power, skill becomes nothing more than decoration.

The ability Chen Fei had shown in controlling the s.p.a.ce Secondary Rules, even Sun Guangyuan had to inwardly sigh at.

Thirty miles away, Sun Guangyuan swung his Ghost Blade, and an immense shadow suddenly fell, trapping the distant Chen Fei within it.

Chen Fei, holding the Qianyuan Sword, felt the s.p.a.ce behind him collapse, as tremendous power surged on the blade, only causing the shadow to tremble, unable to tear it apart.

Countless shadow chains appeared, wrapping towards Chen Fei, who used the expansion of s.p.a.ce to teleport around within the limited area, but instead of escaping, the available s.p.a.ce for his dodges grew smaller and smaller.

“Snap, snap, snap!”

Sun Guangyuan clapped his hands, walking forward step by step.

A Rule Integration Realm Early Stage cultivator managing to hold out for so long in his hands was truly not easy; if Chen Fei’s Basic Power were a bit stronger, reaching the peak of the Rule Integration Realm Early Stage, perhaps the outcome would be completely different.

Thinking of this, Sun Guangyuan felt a hint of relief. Fortunately, he did not delay too long in killing Chen Fei, otherwise it might become very difficult to kill him in the future.

“a.s.sa.s.sinating a clansman, Sun Guangyuan, you’ve got quite the nerve!”

Chen Fei turned his head to look at Sun Guangyuan, his expression icy cold.

“If you had obediently accepted death in Pushan City, all of this trouble today wouldn’t have happened.”

Sun Guangyuan shook his head, not saying much more. Raising the Ghost Blade in his hand, in the next moment, a dark blade light had already crossed several miles to arrive in front of Chen Fei.

Sun Guangyuan was accustomed to speaking a few words after killing his enemies, because dead men cannot fight back.

Chen Fei watched the blade light, the surrounding s.p.a.ce already had no room for evasion. The Basic Power difference was too substantial; even with two fragments of Rules and the fully cultivated Desolate Universe G.o.d Devouring Sword, he could not use it to contend against a mid-stage Rule Integration Realm.

“Boom!”

The Qianyuan Sword blocked in front of him, but it only held on for a moment before the overwhelming blade light pressed down on the sword, smas.h.i.+ng it onto Chen Fei’s chest.

Chen Fei’s chest shattered in an instant. His breath fluctuated violently, and then his entire body slammed into the mountains below, as if causing mountains to collapse and the ground to split.

Sun Guangyuan’s gaze s.h.i.+fted slightly; with such a move, Chen Fei still hadn’t died.

In a critical moment, Chen Fei had used s.p.a.ce Rules to s.h.i.+ft some of the damage, hence just narrowly missing.

If Sun Guangyuan were the human imperial sovereign, and neither the Ice Race nor the Evil Clans could offer what he desired, seeing such a prodigy, Sun Guangyuan’s heart might have been filled with admiration for his talent.

But now, the more extraordinary Chen Fei’s talent appeared, the more certain he had to die!

Sun Guangyuan waved his left hand. All the rocks below were swept aside, and Chen Fei’s body, bound by a ma.s.s of shadows, flew towards Sun Guangyuan.

Chen Fei wore a pale face, but his expression remained calm. Seeing Chen Fei’s expression, Sun Guangyuan felt something amiss in his heart.

“Clang!”

Suddenly, a melodious sword cry sounded from the Qianyuan Sword. The Qianyuan Sword instantly broke free from the shadows’ binding and flew towards the distance.

Sun Guangyuan’s complexion changed slightly, about to intercept the Qianyuan Sword, when he suddenly saw a figure appear, catching the Qianyuan Sword.

Sun Guangyuan’s heart sank a little; how could there be another Rule Integration Realm pract.i.tioner here, and how did the other person come without him sensing anything?

Upon seeing the figure’s face clearly, Sun Guangyuan’s eyes involuntarily widened. He immediately looked towards the Chen Fei he had bound.

“It seems that my Divine Power of Planting Beans into Soldiers isn’t bad. Even someone in the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm can’t tell the warriors from the real person.”

The real Chen Fei held the Qianyuan Sword, slowly walking towards Sun Guangyuan.

He had intended to use the warriors to delay Sun Guangyuan for a bit longer, considering that the ten thousand low-grade Primordial Crystals had only been shattered for a few hours. Not to cultivate properly would be truly a waste.

However, the warriors’ Basic Power was indeed a bit weak. Facing someone in the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm, even if he intended to delay, he was not strong enough.

“Warriors…”

Sun Guangyuan looked at the warriors, his left hand suddenly exerting force, and the warriors instantly shattered.

Warriors from the Rule Integration Realm Early Stage? Is this the Divine Power of Planting Beans into Soldiers?

With a darkened face, Sun Guangyuan realized that things had gone beyond his control, both the warriors and the real Chen Fei who suddenly appeared without him being able to detect it at all.

All of this deviated completely from what he had previously expected.

“You’ve broken through to the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm?”

Sun Guangyuan’s voice became deeper, advancing from barely entering the Rule Integration Realm Early Stage to the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm in just two years?

Even with Rule Crystals, this is absolutely impossible.

Rule Crystals are Supreme Treasures, and can play an extremely strong role in promoting cultivation in the Rule Integration Realm.

But however strong the effect, it absolutely cannot be to this extent!

There must be another Supreme Treasure on Chen Fei!

To take advantage of him just breaking through to the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm and kill him, obtain that treasure!

If that treasure could help Chen Fei break through to the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm so quickly, then it must have a powerful effect in advancing the entire Rule Integration Realm’s cultivation.

If Sun Guangyuan got that treasure, he wouldn’t need to take any resources from the Ice Race and Evil Clans. He himself could break through all the way to the late stages of the Rule Integration Realm, even to the Peak of Rule Integration Realm, becoming the human imperial sovereign.

Sun Guangyuan’s gaze suddenly turned sharp, his form disappearing on the spot, only to reappear directly in front of Chen Fei.

The entire world became dark, tens of thousands of chains formed from Shadow Rules spread in all directions; Sun Guangyuan holding the Ghost Blade, brought it down from above towards Chen Fei.

Attacking, Sun Guangyuan went all out; he intended to kill Chen Fei and make him a stepping stone on his own path to becoming the imperial sovereign!

Chen Fei’s eyelids lifted slightly, the Qianyuan Sword in his hands flipped to block in front of him.

“Boom!”

A ma.s.sive disturbance exploded in mid-air, sweeping out towards all sides.
