Chapter 343 - 343: Flickering Light and Shadow



Hong Yuanfeng thought for a moment and finally gave up on this idea. This was Apricot Fen City, which was too close to Immortal Cloud City. If they fought here, even if they could kill Chen Fei, the final news would probably be sent back to Immortal Cloud City.

At that time, he would directly sever the relationship between the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect and the Primordial Sword Sect unless Hong Yuanfeng could lure Chen Fei out of Apricot Fen City and kill him without anyone knowing.

However, this required time, and what Hong Yuanfeng lacked now was time. He had a mission this time. Apricot Fen City was only a transit point, and he would leave tomorrow.

At the thought of this, Hong Yuanfeng retracted the killing intent in his eyes. He nodded slightly at Chen Fei, who was in the restaurant, and then disappeared at the end of the street.

Chen Fei was in the restaurant, his right hand lightly tapping on the table. Although Hong Yuanfeng’s killing intent flashed for a moment, it was still captured by Chen Fei.

As he cultivated the Thousand Thread Technique to higher and higher levels, Chen Fei’s perception of this subtle feeling also became stronger and stronger.

Hong Yuanfeng was at the middle stage of the Aperture Tempering realm, and he cultivated the top legacy technique of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect. In the past, Chen Fei could not afford to offend such strength. In fact, if the other party insisted on killing him, Chen Fei would not be able to resist.

But now, the situation had completely changed. As time passed, the gap between the two sides would only widen.

Chou Yuanceng looked at Hong Yuanfeng’s back as he disappeared. His eyes were deep in thought, but Chou Yuanceng quickly covered his gaze.

Two hours later, Chen Fei sat cross-legged in the inn room. The Zhongyuan Force Field pressed down on Chen Fei’s body. The huge force caused the air to ripple, but this gravity did not have any effect on the surrounding items.

Chen Fei was able to control every bit of power in the Zhongyuan Sword at his will. This was complete control over his own power.

Only the power that he controlled truly belonged to him.

In his sea of consciousness, as the gravity pressed down on his body, his comprehension of the Giant Spirit Sword kept flashing and then being absorbed by Chen Fei.

After a period of time, the Giant Spirit Sword could be cultivated to the Great Completion level. At that time, under the smelting of the Primordial Sword Scripture, Chen Fei’s battle prowess would be able to rise to another level.

If he could successfully retrieve the Great Thunder Sword and even find the cultivation techniques of the other layers of the Primordial Sword Scripture, Chen Fei’s battle prowess could continue to increase.

Otherwise, Chen Fei would need to spend time and effort to find other cultivation techniques to make up for the stagnation in his battle strength. Or he could only use his cultivation to increase his combat strength, such as breaking through to the late-stage of the aperture tempering realm.

However, without the support of a good cultivation technique, even if he broke through to the late-stage of the aperture tempering realm, he wouldn’t have any advantage in the late-stage of the aperture tempering realm.

Of course, Chen Fei still had the Suppressing Dragon Elephant technique, but he couldn’t rely solely on it.

Before Chen Fei recovered the Primordial Sword Scripture, the high-level combat power of the Primordial Sword Sect was considered quite ordinary among the surrounding sects.

After all, whether it was the Zhongyuan Sword or the Giant Spirit Sword, they could only open up to eighty acupoints. In the later stages of the aperture tempering realm, one could open up to a hundred and eight acupoints, and the difference was quite obvious.

But now, with the return of first two levels of the Primordial Sword Scripture and the fusion of the Zhongyuan Sword and the Giant Spirit Sword, they could reach ninety acupoints, making them no longer inferior among the sects around Immortal City.

Of course, it couldn’t be compared to the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect and the Divine Flame Sect, but at least it wouldn’t be worse than the previous sects, and it wouldn’t be weaker than the techniques of the guest masters.

Early the next morning, Chen Fei left Apricot Fen City with Chou Yuanceng and headed towards Shang Wu City. Shang Wu City is located next to Qinhai City, and there is no need to necessarily pass through Qinhai City; they can simply go around it.

After several hours, Chen Fei and Chou Yuanceng stopped when they saw a huge city in the distance.

Chou Yuanceng also looked ahead in bewilderment. It was not because of anything else, but because there were troops surrounding Shang Wu City, completely surrounding it.

“Rebel army?” Chen Fei frowned.

“From the flag, it looks like the Yashan Army.” Chou Yuanceng said in a low voice.

“Where are they from?” Chen Fei turned to look at Chou Yuanceng. Chen Fei had very little contact with the rebel army, other than the one he met in Pingyin County.

However, the rebel army was not very strong, so they only managed to capture a small county like Pingyin County.

The dynasty is unstable, and rebel forces are rising. Many of these rebel groups are actually formed from mountain bandits, but such rebel groups usually struggle to make a significant impact. Most of the time, they either get wiped out or get absorbed by other rebel forces, becoming part of larger rebel armies.

“There are rumors that the Yashan Sect has initiated a rebellion. Because Yashan Sect itself is powerful, it has attracted many people to join. They’ve been rewarding their members with Yashan Sect’s cultivation techniques and training soldiers according to the sect’s disciples’ methods, and they quickly became a force to be reckoned with.”

Chou Yuanceng recalled for a moment and said with uncertainty. After all, it was only hearsay. Furthermore, Chou Yuanceng usually did not care about this.

“Yashan Sect…”

Chen Fei’s heart skipped a beat. This name sounded familiar. Chen Fei must have seen it in some information. It seemed that the strongest person in the sect was already at the aperture tempering realm. However, the information did not say what realm he was at.

Although they were not as powerful as the Primordial Sword Sect, they could still live a carefree life if they stayed in a remote area. They did not expect that they would rebel and attack Shang Wu City on such a scale.

Shang Wu City was not a small city. Compared to Qinhai City and Apricot Fen City, Shang Wu City had a much stronger defense force. More importantly, not only were the troops stationed in Shang Wu City strong, but even the generals of the garrison had high cultivation.

The Yashan Army might have been able to execute a beheading operation in other places, but it was impossible in Shang Wu City.

The Yashan Army didn’t choose the weaker Qinhai City, but attacked Shang Wu City. No one knew what they were planning.

The city gate of Shang Wu City was tightly shut. The two sides were in a stalemate. The Yashan Army surrounded the city but didn’t attack. They just kept pressuring Shang Wu City.

“Is your friend always in Shang Wu City?” Chen Fei asked.

Now that the Yashan Army had surrounded the city, the four gates of Shang Wu City were heavily guarded. Even the other parts of the city wall were patrolled to prevent people from entering or leaving Shang Wu City.

If Chen Fei wanted to enter Shang Wu City, he had to climb over the city wall. However, it was also a question whether Chou YuanCeng’s friend was in Shang Wu City.

Shang Wu City was surrounded. Even if there were aperture tempering realm cultivators inside, they would take the opportunity to escape. With the cultivation of the aperture tempering realm, as long as there were no experts of the same level blocking them, ordinary troops would not be able to stop them.

The Yashan Army’s target was Shang Wu City, so they would turn a blind eye to the other aperture tempering realm cultivators. There was no need to stop them unless they were on the kill list.

“Normally, he would be in Shang Wu City, but now, 1 can’t be sure.” Chou Yuanceng shook his head, not sure.

Chen Fei frowned slightly and looked at the sky. Now, he could only enter the city at night. The view during the day was too good. No matter how fast Chen Fei’s movement technique was, it was easy to see his traces.

At that time, they would easily become the focus of attention, whether in the eyes of the Yashan Army or in the eyes of Shang Wu City.

Time passed slowly, and night gradually fell. On the mountain top, Chen Fei’s eyes slowly opened. The Yashan Army in the distance had already withdrawn, but there were still many soldiers guarding the important positions outside Shang Wu City.

Chen Fei turned to look at Chou Yuanceng. He activated the Slaughter Spirit Technique, and it was as if a sharp blade was cutting through him. Chou Yuanceng only felt a shock in his heart, and then he suddenly realized that his aura had disappeared.

Chou Yuanceng raised his head to look at Chen Fei again and found that Chen Fei’s aura had also disappeared without a trace.

Chou Yuanceng was astonished. He did not expect that there was actually such a cultivation technique. Previously, when Chen Fei suppressed his aura to the early stage of the aperture tempering realm, Chou Yuanceng did not think too much about it. After all, although it was difficult to suppress one’s aura, there were still some methods and techniques.

However, at this moment, he had completely concealed his aura. Not only was he concealing his aura, but he was also concealing the aura of others. This was extremely powerful. Chou Yuanceng had never heard of such a cultivation technique move in all these years.

He had never heard of such a move from the Primordial Sword Sect.

Chen Fei took out a half-spirit and injected their auras into it.

Even with the power of the Slaughter Spirit Technique, it needed something to support it. This was very different from Chen Fei cutting his aura to the early stage of the aperture tempering realm.

Moreover, there was a time limit to completely erasing this aura. At most, it would take two hours for the aura to be emitted from the body again. At that time, if he wanted to continue hiding it, he would have to use the Slaughter Spirit Technique to slash out the aura again.

“Let’s go!”

Chen Fei grabbed Chou Yuanceng’s shoulder, and his body turned into a shadow, disappearing from the spot.

The distance of several miles was crossed in the blink of an eye. Chen Fei and Chou Yuanceng were like phantoms, not emitting any aura or sound. When he got close, Chen Fei activated the spirit weapon in his arms and increased his speed further.

The spirit weapon was obtained after killing Dong Xiuzhi in the mystic realm back then. This spiritual weapon was called the Shuttle of Flying Clouds. Although it was only a low-grade spiritual weapon, it was extremely powerful.

Back then, Dong Xiuzhi, who had average agility, managed to keep up with Chen Fei and the other two through it. And with Chen Fei unleashing the Shuttle of Flying Clouds, he could further increase his speed by an additional twenty percent on top of his original capabilities.

Twenty percent might not seem like much, but that’s because Chen Fei’s natural agility is already extremely fast. When Chen Fei completes his cultivation of the Soaring Heaven Technique to perfection, this boost from the Shuttle of Flying Clouds will be reduced further.

Even so, Chen Fei was extremely satisfied with it.

So, despite it being an item of the Divine Flame Sect, which could bring great danger if exposed carelessly, Chen Fei still decided to keep it.

Chou Yuanceng could not help but gulp when he felt the extreme speed that Chen Fei displayed. Before this, Chou Yuanceng had already felt that Chen Fei’s movement technique was unbelievably fast.

In Chou Yuanceng’s memory, there was no aperture tempering realm middle stage cultivator who could reach Chen Fei’s speed.

Now, looking at it again, the speed at which they were travelling was nowhere near Chen Fei’s maximum speed. His current speed, compared to before, is much faster, increasing by several times at least.

Whether this speed is Chen Fei’s ultimate limit, even Chou Yuanceng couldn’t be certain..
