Chapter 413: Take Me Down

The advanced Thousand Threads Technique had made Chen Fei’s already formidable mental defense even more exaggerated. At the same time, the number of mental divisions had also significantly increased.

Even the rate of self-growth of his mind had been greatly enhanced. However, for Chen Fei, the part of his enhancement that allowed him to freely slaughter the Evils of the Strange Heart Realm was actually the least effective.

After more than a dozen days of cultivation, Chen Fei’s cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, and the awaited Elemental Tide was finally approaching.

No need for anyone to remind him; Chen Fei could clearly feel that there had been some change in the world’s elemental energy, and the source of this change was within the inner city of the imperial capital.

At this moment, the entire imperial capital seemed to be quiet, and everyone was silently waiting for the Elemental Tide to arrive.

From the highest realm of the Aperture Tempering realm to the newly initiated Skin Tempering realm, everyone hoped to gain something from this Elemental Tide. No matter how much improvement they could achieve, any advancement is always a good thing.

On the side of the inner city of the imperial capital, there was a mansion where Aperture Tempering realm cultivators gathered, and these were the experts of the Heavenly Sun Mansion.

When the Elemental Tide occurs, the spirit fluctuations will be directly locked in the formation of the imperial capital to maximize the effect of the Elemental Tide.

Therefore, the people of the Heavenly Sun Mansion have come to the inner city early.

Even for the people of the Heavenly Sun Mansion, each occurrence of the Elemental Tide is an unmissable golden opportunity. Seizing this chance can greatly enhance their cultivation and essentially save them years of hard work.

“Are the Spirit-Refreshing Pills ready?” Ning Pusheng looked at his fellow disciples around him and said solemnly.

“Ning Senior Brother, we are all prepared,” said Tan Tailing as she shook the bottle of pills in her hand and smiled.

Ning Pusheng nodded without saying more. As members of the Heavenly Sun Mansion, this common knowledge was well known to them. His earlier remark was just a gentle reminder.

Tan Tailing looked at the Spirit-Refreshing Pill in her hand with some curiosity. This was her first time taking the Spirit-Refreshing Pill. In the past, even during Elemental Tides, there were no such pills distributed.

Tan Tailing had heard from other senior brothers and sisters that the

Spirit-Refreshing Pill, when taken during the Elemental Tide, could directly allow the collision of one’s mind with the spiritual mechanisms within the Elemental Tide, borrowing the power of heaven and earth to forcefully comprehend martial techniques.

The Elemental Tide can not only enhance one’s cultivation but also accelerate the comprehension of martial techniques. For most practitioners in the Body Tempering Realm, they would choose the former.

However, for those in the Aperture Tempering realm, especially those from the Heavenly Sun Mansion, thorough comprehension of martial techniques takes precedence. As long as their understanding of martial techniques keeps up, the Heavenly Sun Mansion has abundant resources to boost their cultivation.

The production of Spirit-Refreshing Pills is extremely challenging, and even the Heavenly Sun Mansion doesn’t possess many of them. Fortunately, the Elemental Tide only occurs every few years, so there is enough time to produce another batch.

Ning Pusheng’s eyes suddenly twitched, and he turned to look at the inner city. In his perception, a powerful surge of spiritual fluctuations was emanating from somewhere, causing an instantaneous change in the elemental energy of Imperial City.

The people around Ning Pusheng also noticed and quickly sat cross-legged, swallowing the Spirit-Refreshing Pills into their stomachs.

In the next moment, a formation diagram flashed on the ground, connecting the auras of several Heavenly Sun Mansion members. This formation diagram allowed them to better receive the collision of spiritual mechanisms, facilitating the comprehension of martial techniques.

Why are dominant forces at the hegemonic level so strong? Besides having Combined Aperture Tempering realm powerhouses to suppress their luck, the crucial point is that they are always a step ahead in their cultivation in every detail.

The path of martial arts has always been one of taking one step faster, and every step is faster. If you fall behind slightly and think you can catch up head-on, you’ll find that the people ahead of you have already disappeared when you look up.

“The Elemental Tide is here!” Someone in the Prosperity Inn shouted with excitement in their tone.

In his guest room, Chen Fei felt the changes in the elemental energy of the world and slowly closed his eyes.

Within his sea of consciousness, Chen Fei noticed that his mind was gradually becoming more active, giving him a sensation similar to when he broke through to the advanced Aperture Tempering realm, with flashes of insight.

However, at this moment, the spiritual mechanisms within the Elemental Tide were somewhat meager, far from what they used to be. Trying to capture these spiritual mechanisms with the mind was challenging, and it might even deplete one’s mental energy.

It could be said that these spiritual mechanisms were better than nothing, and they still contributed somewhat to the comprehension of martial techniques.

“What exactly is in the inner city that could cause such a surge of spiritual mechanisms?”

Chen Fei opened his eyes and looked towards the direction of the inner city, filled with curiosity. Of course, it was just curiosity; Chen Fei didn’t have the strength to rush into the inner city now, especially with Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts present.

Chen Fei stood up, his Qianyuan Sword in hand. The amount of spiritual mechanisms here was too small for others, but for Chen Fei, it wasn’t as significant as the enhancements provided by his interface panel.

Perhaps in a location closer to the inner city, there would be more spiritual mechanisms, but overall, whether it could surpass the efficiency of the interface panel remained questionable.

Having experienced the Elemental Tide, Chen Fei decided to leave in a day or two. The matters he came to Imperial City for had already been settled, and there was no need to stay any longer.

As he was about to practice the Starry Night Sword in his room, Chen Fei’s hand suddenly paused.

The spiritual mechanisms around him were gathering towards him, even though Chen Fei hadn’t done anything. These spiritual mechanisms were automatically converging towards him.

Chen Fei hadn’t noticed this earlier because the convergence of spiritual mechanisms was not obvious, but with time passing, this gathering seemed to be accelerating, and Chen Fei suddenly became aware of it.

Checking his sea of consciousness, Chen Fei found that it was the unabsorbed Strange Heart Origin that was continuously gathering these spiritual mechanisms. Chen Fei felt his mind becoming more agile, and he even had a feeling reminiscent of his initial enlightenment.

“The Strange Heart Origin can actually have this effect.”

Chen Fei was pleasantly surprised. Currently, the number of spiritual mechanisms was still relatively low, but with time, it was likely to reach a much higher level. By then, the speed of comprehension would surpass what the interface panel could offer.

Chen Fei thought for a moment and decided to start practicing the Starry Night Sword. There was no rush, and he would wait until there were enough spiritual mechanisms before proceeding.

Inside Imperial City, while the majority of people were meditating cross-legged, Chen Fei was practicing his sword techniques. This practice session lasted for three hours.

In Chen Fei’s sea of consciousness, the spiritual mechanisms continued to collide, while the Strange Heart Origin was gradually being consumed. Chen Fei didn’t mind the consumption of the Strange Heart Origin; at most, he would go back to the Strange Heart Realm and capture another one next time. Given the current rate of consumption, he could continue for another day without much trouble.

Chen Fei put away his Qianyuan Sword and sat cross-legged to contemplate the Water-Jade Sword technique.

The Water-Jade Sword had already been perfected by Chen Fei some time ago. Typically, as martial practitioners advanced in a martial technique, the difficulty of comprehension increased. With the help of the interface panel, Chen Fei’s comprehension efficiency didn’t decrease, but it did take more time. However, with the collision of spiritual mechanisms in his sea of consciousness, Chen Fei’s insights regarding the Water-Jade Sword began to gradually increase.

A faint smile appeared on Chen Fei’s face as he realized that his comprehension speed had indeed surpassed that of the interface panel. The feeling of enlightenment he experienced was becoming more evident, although it wasn’t as intense as the previous time. Nevertheless, with the remaining time, Chen Fei was confident that he could elevate the Water-Jade Sword to an exceptionally high level.

In the realm of cultivation, time seemed to lose its meaning, and Chen Fei immersed himself wholeheartedly in his contemplation.

If a powerful cultivator were to hover in the sky at this moment, they might notice something slightly unusual in the spiritual mechanisms around the Prosperity Inn area. However, it wasn’t conspicuous, just a little bit out of the ordinary.

After all, spiritual mechanisms followed the fluctuations of the natural elemental energy, and elemental energy was inherently unpredictable. Even Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts dared not claim to have perfect control over the changes in natural elemental energy.

Moreover, at this moment, there were no cultivators hovering in the sky; they were all immersed in the comprehension of martial techniques.

As the days passed, in the guest room, the aura around Chen Fei’s body began to tremble slightly. A continuous and boundless artistic conception emanated from him. From a distance, Chen Fei seemed to be immersed in the vast ocean.

This artistic conception came and went, but upon closer inspection, it was clear that Chen Fei had remained in the same position without moving.

As the sun rose and set, the sunlight bathed the area. The spiritual mechanisms within Imperial City gradually weakened, and even the concentration of elemental energy in the air decreased significantly.

Some martial practitioners in the Body Tempering Realm had already opened their eyes. They could no longer feel the enhancement brought by the Elemental Tide, and the whole imperial city began to return to its usual bustling state.

In the guest room, the energy that had been surrounding Chen Fei began to dissipate and transformed into a more sharp and pronounced aura, like an unparalleled treasure sword revealing a trace of its sharpness.

One hour later, Chen Fei slowly opened his eyes, a hint of lingering satisfaction in his gaze.

The Water-Jade Sword had achieved Great Completion, and the Blade-Slaying Sword was also perfected.

In the span of a day, both martial techniques had made significant progress, especially the Water-Jade Sword, which had directly reached Great Completion from the early stages.

Chen Fei’s right hand formed a sword gesture, and his elemental energy flowed freely at his fingertips. Supremely gentle yet supremely strong and flexible, this was the true essence of the Water-Jade Sword.

With the Water-Jade Sword breaking through to Great Completion and being integrated into the Primordial Sword Scripture, Chen Fei had opened a total of 103 acupoints, inching closer to the 108 acupoints.

Chen Fei dispersed the elemental energy at his fingertips, closed his eyes again, and focused on consolidating his newfound insights, transforming them into his own strength.

Two days later.

Chen Fei quietly left the Prosperity Inn, leaving behind the jade slip from the Heavenly Sun Mansion in his guest room. He decided to leave Imperial City directly.

Dressed as an ordinary Body Tempering Realm practitioner, Chen Fei blended into the crowd. After leaving the city gates a considerable distance behind, he gradually increased his speed.

However, when he was several tens of miles away from Imperial City, Chen Fei’s brows furrowed slightly as he sensed a commotion ahead, a sign of conflict.

Chen Fei had no intention of getting involved. He changed direction and continued running. However, halfway there, he stopped abruptly.

“Murder by the Heavenly Sun Mansion! Murder by the Heavenly Sun Mansion! Sir, please save me! You’ve stumbled upon their deeds, and they won’t spare you either!” Sheng Renyuan shouted loudly as he rushed toward Chen Fei.

Chen Fei narrowed his eyes and looked behind Sheng Renyuan, where Tao Shiye was pursuing him with a high-quality spirit sword in hand, gradually closing the gap.

Chen Fei remained silent, and with a swift movement, he ran in another direction.

Seeing Chen Fei run away, Sheng Renyuan’s hands formed seals, and his elemental energy surged. His already fast speed increased even more, and instead of changing direction, he headed straight for Chen Fei.

With no one to back him up, Sheng Renyuan was undoubtedly doomed. He was determined to drag someone else down with him.

“Is that Chen Mu? He’s escaped to this place, and we haven’t received any news from the Mansion yet!”

Tao Shiye, observing Chen Fei’s receding figure and the accelerating Sheng Renyuan, sneered and activated his sword essence. He pursued closely behind..
