Chapter 562: Crazy

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Which friend is joking with me here? Nowadays, in times of war, such jokes are intolerable!” Xu Wucheng looked ahead and whispered.

Chen Fei narrowed his eyes because he sensed someone lurking in the shadows. As a late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm powerhouse, Xu Wucheng naturally had a strong perception of danger and immediately sensed that something was amiss.

“I’ve always heard that Your Excellency’s Sea Stepping Technique is extraordinary. Now that we meet, indeed, seeing is believing.”

A light laughter echoed, and a figure emerged from the void, looking at Xu Wucheng without even glancing at the others behind him.

Tong Linyun tightened his grip on the huge blade in his hand, while Guo Huasheng also tightened his grip on the formation disk.

The newcomer also had a late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivation. With their strength, it was difficult to match, but this did not make Tong Linyun and the others retreat.

“Who are you, sir, and why are you stopping me?” Xu Wucheng looked at the newcomer, his gaze cold.

“There are some things I want to verify with Brother Xu. I wonder if Brother Xu would be willing to accompany us for a while?” The newcomer’s face was full of smiles, but there was no hint of amusement in his eyes.

“Run!”

Xu Wucheng suddenly shouted, and a burst of light flew out of his Qiankun Bag. However, before it could explode in mid-air, a sword light suddenly appeared, shattering the burst of light.

The Tremor Spirit Talisman is a kind of warning talisman that allows one to see within a hundred miles.

This place is less than a hundred miles away from the Sea Dominion City, so the fluctuations of the Tremor Spirit Talisman can be directly seen from the Sea Dominion City. However, before the Tremor Spirit Talisman could truly take effect, it was shattered by the person opposite.

Chen Fei grabbed Qin Haishan beside him, his figure swaying, and he disappeared in an instant.

There were not just one late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm opponent on the opposite side, but a total of three, with two more hiding in the shadows.

They were even more covert, making it even more difficult to detect.

But even with only peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivation, Chen Fei could detect the ambush of these late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm opponents with ease.

Xu Wucheng did not possess Chen Fei’s exaggerated sensing ability, but after years of battles, his experience was much more sophisticated. He didn’t need to see; he knew there must be people hiding in the shadows.

Upon receiving Chen Fei’s warning and confirming the positions of the other two late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm opponents, Xu Wucheng directly dispersed the entire team.

Facing three late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm opponents, the combined effort of five people would not change the outcome. Instead, everyone scattering and fleeing offered a greater hope of survival.

Tong Linyun and Guo Huasheng didn’t hesitate either, diving into the sea without any delay.

Compared to the sky where everything is visible, the situation underwater is evidently more complicated. Facing pursuit from other late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators, the hope of survival would be greater underwater.

Chen Fei held onto Qin Haishan and, after diving into the sea, swiftly traced an arc towards the direction of the Sea Dominion City.

The Thousand Feathers Alliance had a traitor. They had just returned from behind the sea monsters, and now three late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators were lying in wait here. Clearly, they didn’t want them to report what they had seen to the Sea Dominion City.

Perhaps these three late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators didn’t know if Xu Wucheng and the others had truly seen the Formless Realm Formation, but they would rather kill by mistake than let them go.

If it weren’t for the fact that the Suppressing Breath Rings was distributed within the Sea Dominion City and couldn’t be tampered with, Xu Wucheng and the others would have detonated it directly when they were behind the sea monsters, rendering it ineffective.

Fortunately, these traitors couldn’t pull off such a feat yet.

But the specific information about Xu Wucheng’s mission was still betrayed by someone, leading to the current situation.

Chen Fei unleashed the Profound Heavenly Escape. Even in the sea, his speed was extremely fast.

Qin Haishan’s breath fluctuated slightly. After all, facing late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators, with Qin Haishan’s cultivation level, it was almost inevitable that he could barely put up any resistance and being slain.

Suddenly, Chen Fei’s figure hesitated for a moment. Instead of heading towards the direction of the Sea Dominion City as initially intended, he abruptly changed course towards a more remote location.

However, after just a moment, Chen Fei stopped again and then dashed towards another position.

With these constant stops and turns, Chen Fei’s expression gradually became solemn.

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Fei’s figure emerged from the sea and halted in mid-air.

The distance from where they had encountered the late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators moments ago had deviated by several tens of miles. Not only was it not closer to the Sea Dominion City, but it was also even farther away.

“Why stop running? Why the sudden halt?”

A mocking voice echoed around them, and two figures appeared in mid-air. Zhao Chengzhong and Ning Yanding looked down at Chen Fei and Qin Haishan.

Qin Haishan looked at the two figures, his face turning pale. They were both mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators, and there were two of them.

A single mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivator was enough to kill two early-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm warriors, let alone two of them.

Qin Haishan finally understood why Chen Fei had been circling around earlier. It turned out they had been pursued by these two individuals all along.

To die not at the hands of a group of third-tier sea monsters but rather at the hands of fellow humans? It was undeniably an extremely ironic situation.

“Chen Fei, go on your own. Don’t take me. Your agility can shake them off!”

Qin Haishan transmitted his voice to Chen Fei. Even in death, Qin Haishan wanted his death to serve a purpose. The more these people tried to suppress the news about the Formless Realm Formation, the more Qin Haishan wanted to spread it to the Sea Dominion City.

When the Sea Dominion City thoroughly investigates, perhaps they could uncover the identities of these traitors one by one.

Even if Qin Haishan died, at least he would have these people as companions in the afterlife.

“You go first. I’ll hold them off for a while. Don’t worry about me!”

With the late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators still tens of miles away, Chen Fei didn’t say much. He threw Qin Haishan out and turned to face Zhao Chengzhong and Ning Yanding.

If it hadn’t been to distance themselves from those late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators earlier, Chen Fei wouldn’t have circled around like that.

Qin Haishan watched Chen Fei from afar, his eyes filled with incredulity and gratitude. Without delay, Qin Haishan’s figure turned into a blur and disappeared on the spot.

“Hold me off for a while? You really overestimate yourself!”

Zhao Chengzhong mocked loudly, his figure flashing as he charged towards Chen Fei. Zhao Chengzhong wanted Chen Fei to see just how big the gap was between mid-stage and early-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators.

If Chen Fei was determined to leave, Zhao Chengzhong wouldn’t be able to catch him in the short term. At most, he would force Chen Fei to stay away from the Sea Dominion City.

But now, the other party actually wanted to face him alone. It was simply foolish!

Ning Yanding, upon seeing Zhao Chengzhong charging at Chen Fei, pursued Qin Haishan.

The directive from above this time was clear: no one was to be spared. That’s why they were specifically dispatched – one to each target – to ensure there were no slip-ups.

“Swish!”

Ning Yanding’s figure suddenly halted slightly as a sharp sword intent flashed before his eyes. Ning Yanding looked towards Chen Fei’s direction in surprise.

This person, who had only broken through to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm a few years ago, actually wanted to temporarily detain them both here?

How arrogant, how ignorant!

Zhao Chengzhong also noticed the sword intent sent by Chen Fei towards Ning Yanding, and his eyes narrowed slightly. It had been a long time since he encountered such a bold person.

Was this person genuinely confident, or just putting on a show?

Zhao Chengzhong appeared in front of Chen Fei and thrust his sword.

A majestic momentum accompanied Zhao Chengzhong’s move, spreading in all directions. However, soon, this momentum surged back, converging entirely into Zhao Chengzhong’s blade, making the sword’s momentum even more astonishing.

Sword Qi Technique!

Utilizing qi to control momentum, but undoubtedly more profound, using qi to control the momentum and using momentum to cut down opponents!

Compared to early-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators, mid-stage cultivators not only had a deeper comprehension of their techniques but also had a more expansive pool of elemental energy within them. With every strike, their elemental energy was far more abundant than that of early-stage cultivators.

When it came to techniques and strength, there was a natural gap between early-stage and mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators.

This gap was challenging to bridge with external means unless one possessed a high-quality magic treasure, there was hope to level the playing field.

However, wielding such a treasure might make mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators even more determined to kill you. The reason was simple: high-quality magic treasures were highly tempting to mid-stage cultivators.

Whether for personal use or for trading, the value generated by high-quality magic treasures is immense.

“Buzz!”

Three fluctuations emanated from Chen Fei’s body as three forbidden techniques were directly activated. Chen Fei’s aura, originally at the early-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm, surged through to the mid-stage in an instant.

Once he exerted his full strength, his aura could no longer be concealed.

After breaking through the boundary of the mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm, Chen Fei’s aura did not stop. Under the effect of the three forbidden techniques, his aura soared into the sky, stirring the surrounding elemental energy.

As Chen Fei took a step forward, ripples spread beneath his feet, causing the sea surface below to suddenly cave in. From a distance, it looked as if a giant’s foot had plunged into the sea.

The blood within Chen Fei’s body circulated rapidly, emitting a roar akin to that of a dragon and elephant. His physique, now at the late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm, was fully stimulated, and immense power surged from his feet throughout his entire body.

“Clang!”

The Qianyuan Sword emitted a resounding clang as Chen Fei thrust forward with his sword.

Zhao Chengzhong’s eyes widened in astonishment. The changes in Chen Fei’s aura were beyond his expectations, and the activation of the three forbidden techniques caught him completely off guard.

If Chen Fei were still at the early-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm and activated the three forbidden techniques, it would have been nothing more than a desperate struggle.

But for both being at the mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm and activating the three forbidden techniques, it was tantamount to slaughter!

Zhao Chengzhong’s sword intent erupted, and the power of the sword prohibition circulated wildly. Unconsciously, Zhao Chengzhong also entered a state of desperate fighting.

“Boom!”

A violent sound soared into the sky, causing the sea surface to sink dozens of meters. Countless sea waters were turned into mist by the violent force, shrouding the figures of Chen Fei and Zhao Chengzhong within.

Ning Yanding stood not far away, watching everything unfold. He was too late to support Zhao Chengzhong. Everything happened too quickly and changed too swiftly.

A figure suddenly flew out backwards from the mist—it was Zhao Chengzhong.

At this moment, Zhao Chengzhong was already covered in wounds, his breath feeble. Ning Yanding’s figure turned into a phantom, about to assist Zhao Chengzhong, when suddenly he saw a hand reaching out from the mist, grabbing Zhao Chengzhong’s ankle.

The next moment, Chen Fei emerged from the mist. A sword swept across Zhao Chengzhong’s neck, his eyes widened in fear and reluctance. His breath dissipated completely.

Ning Yanding’s figure froze in place for a moment..
