Chapter 1887 Slaying the Peak of the Immortal Realm
Chen Fei looked up at Ancestor Yan Lie's attack, his eyes calm and unwavering. With a slight thought, the Void Secret Treasure River Reversal Activated.
In an instant, the churning lava waves and scorching spatial turbulence around them vanished, replaced by a desolate, dark, and terrifying abyss filled with endless cold—the Frozen Hell!
Immediately afterwards, Chen Fei pointed his fingers like a sword, and the Void Secret Treasure Law Rift began to operate.
"laugh!"
An invisible and intangible sword intent, yet containing the power to tear apart the very essence of rules, slashed with unparalleled precision at several faint causal connections between the fire-elemental rules flowing within the Frozen Prison.
Where the sword intent passes, the rules crumble!
In an instant, the extreme icy power within the Frozen Prison, which had been slightly suppressed by the fire elemental laws, surged dramatically, and terrifying cold air began to erode the prison.
A trace of solemnity flashed in the crimson demonic eyes of Ancestor Yanlie. He had learned his lesson before, and had already activated his secret technique, with dark red runes flowing endlessly across his body.
However, many times, even if you are prepared in advance, you cannot defend against it.
A bone-chilling cold pierced deep into the source of his fire spirit, ignoring the protective demonic flames of Ancestor Yanlie.
The surging fire element within Chen Fei's body instantly became sluggish and difficult to circulate, and its terrifying power, which had originally scorched the heavens and boiled the seas, was visibly weakened. At the same time, within Chen Fei's body, the Primordial Void Battle Body and the Divine Forbidden Mortal Transformation had already been automatically activated, continuously enhancing Chen Fei's basic strength of Yuan Power, physique, and divine soul.
But that's not enough!
"Buzz!"
The Void's Hidden Treasure Trove—Battle Spirit Boils!
A powerful fighting spirit erupted from Chen Fei's body like a volcano, and the purple-gold Yuan energy shone through his body as if it were a tangible substance, forcing the surrounding surging cold air back several feet!
At this moment, Chen Fei's aura was so strong that he had already crossed the barrier of the peak of the Immortal Realm!
A stroll through time!
The Azure Lotus Law Imprint!
Tracing the flow of primordial energy in space and time!
In an instant, time and space within a radius of thousands of miles centered on Chen Fei came to a standstill.
The dark red fire line that was powerful enough to pierce through the void, its trajectory, the core structure of energy flow, the profound laws it contained, and even the subtle changes in every fluctuation of the rules were all magnified and analyzed infinitely in Chen Fei's eyes!
Faced with the full-force attack of Ancestor Yanlie, which was enough to severely injure a peak Immortal Realm cultivator, Chen Fei's response seemed to be exactly the same as before inside the tower.
However, this time, Ancestor Yan Lie unleashed a furious attack, giving it his all, and its power far surpassed that of a casual finger strike from inside the tower.
Chen Fei, on the other hand, only took things a little more seriously, activating his Battle Intent Boiling, but he didn't use Time Echo to summon his future self.
The Qian Yuan Sword in Chen Fei's hand transformed into a thin purple-gold line that pierced through the heavens and earth, precisely striking the point where the dark red fire line's energy flow was most violent, yet also delicately unstable because it only pursued violence.
"puff!"
A soft sound, like a bubble being popped.
The dark red fire line, powerful enough to incinerate stars and cause space to collapse, was like a poisonous dragon struck at its vital point the moment it touched the tip of the Qian Yuan Sword. The boiling flames on the surface visibly dimmed, collapsed, and disintegrated inch by inch!
The violent energy turbulence surged back, causing the protective demonic flames of Ancestor Yanlie to sway violently.
In contrast, Chen Fei remained as steady as a rock, his sword-wielding arm motionless, not even the hem of his clothes fluttering. The violent collision just now seemed to him as if it were merely a dust mote brushing away.
The sinister smile on Ancestor Yan Lie's face froze instantly, and his scarlet demonic eyes shrank to the size of a pinhead due to extreme astonishment!
He put all his strength into it, but his own attack was broken, while the thief didn't even retreat a step.
how can that be!
A huge wave of emotions surged in Yan Lie's heart. He had always felt that the stab wound he suffered inside the tower was purely due to his carelessness, allowing this scoundrel to launch a sneak attack using some kind of strange and secret technique.
This thief must have used all his strength, and even paid a huge price!
After all, there is a slight difference in their cultivation levels. As long as I get serious, I will definitely be the winner!
It was with this thought in mind that when he saw the thief escape after unsealing the Xuanjing Pillar inside the tower, Ancestor Yan Lie chased after him without hesitation, vowing to grind this audacious thief to dust!
However, the scene before him was like a resounding slap across the face of Ancestor Yanlie.
What chilled Ancestor Yanlie even more was that the thief's technique of stabbing his clone inside the tower had not yet been used.
If the thief's clone attacks together with his main body, wouldn't he be unable to defeat him?
Having figured out the cause and effect, the previously furious Ancestor Yan Lie calmed down instantly, as if he had been doused with a bucket of ice water. However, Ancestor Yan Lie did not think of fleeing immediately.
The immortal matter within the origin of Heaven can be drawn upon and restored at any time, making him naturally invincible!
At most, dealing with this thief will require a lot of effort and time.
"Youngster, I'd like to see how long you can last!" Ancestor Yan Lie sneered, instantly changing his mind about a quick victory.
Several fire-type void treasures within Ancestor Yanlie's body operated simultaneously, activating their extended properties.
"Buzz!"
A dark red fire domain, flowing with magma runes, instantly unfolded, forcibly creating a scorching space under the suppression of the Ice Prison, resisting the omnipresent extreme cold power, and reducing the suppression of the power within its body.
At the same time, Ancestor Yanlie clenched his fists, and countless dark red chains formed from pure fire elemental essence swung out like poisonous dragons emerging from their caves, sweeping across the sky and crashing down on Chen Fei.
These chains of fire were not intended to kill with a single blow, but rather to weave together a massive net, blocking all of Chen Fei's escape routes, attempting to trap him in place while continuously depleting his strength and wearing him down to death.
Faced with the overwhelming, space-sealing chains of dark red fire, Chen Fei's eyes remained completely unmoved.
With the blessing of the Azure Lotus Law imprint, the energy flow, the nodes connecting the rules, and even the trajectory of every change in power in these seemingly violent fire chains are all as clear as the lines on the palm of your hand.
Chen Fei casually slashed out with his sword.
The sword light was as condensed as silk, its purple-gold hue restrained, silently piercing through the net woven from countless fiery chains.
Wherever the sword light passed, those "nodes" where the flow of fire chain energy was most unstable and the connection of rules was most fragile were precisely broken!
"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!..."
A series of muffled explosions rang out as Chen Fei, with his seemingly effortless sword strike, managed to cleave a path through what appeared to be an impenetrable net of fire chains!
The spatial staircase beneath Chen Fei's feet collapsed silently, and his figure appeared directly in front of Ancestor Yan Lie as if by teleportation.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Fei raised the Qian Yuan Sword in his hand again and slashed down fiercely at the head of Ancestor Yan Lie!
This sword strike, incorporating the power of time disturbance transformed from the attack of Ancestor Yan Lie during the previous spacetime collapse, was significantly more powerful than the sword strike that extinguished the fire line earlier!
Sensing the sharpness of this sword, Ancestor Yan Lie's pupils contracted sharply, and a warning screamed in his heart!
He never expected that the thief's power would become even stronger without using that clone. This was completely beyond his expectations!
A fierce glint flashed in the eyes of Ancestor Yan Lie. Although he was shocked, he had no intention of retreating!
Several fire-type void treasures within his body were instantly ignited and shattered, the power of mutual destruction burning and merging in the midst of the devastation!
Ancestor Yanlie's palms instantly transformed into a dark golden glaze, enveloping the terrifying flames that could burn down the heavens, and with a resolute determination to perish together, he fiercely slammed them towards the sword light that Chen Fei was slashing at!
"Boom!"
An indescribable, terrifying explosion resounded throughout the entire fragment of space!
At the point where the sword and palm clashed, the space shattered and vanished like fragile glass, forming a huge, dark void!
The violent energy turbulence swept out like an apocalyptic storm, instantly evaporating the remaining sea of lava below.
The stalemate lasted only a moment!
"Crack!"
A clear sound of bones cracking rang out. Under the sword light, Ancestor Yanlie's palms, which had transformed into dark golden glass, were like porcelain struck by a divine hammer, cracking and shattering inch by inch!
The sword light continued its momentum, striking fiercely at Ancestor Yanlie's crossed arms as he parried.
"laugh!"
Dark golden demonic blood gushed out like a fountain, instantly severing Ancestor Yan Lie's arms at the root. The sword light, still powerful, tore open a deep, bone-revealing gash in his chest, its edges oozing viscous blood.
Ancestor Yan Lie was struck as if by a heavy blow. His body trembled violently, he spat out a mist of blood, and his aura plummeted instantly.
Ancestor Yan Lie is injured, and his injuries are quite serious.
"impossible!"
Ancestor Yan Lie steadied himself as he was thrown backward. Looking at his shattered arms and the huge wound on his chest, his face was filled with disbelief, horror, and bewilderment!
He exerted all his strength, even at the cost of shattering the hidden treasure within his body, and unleashed a desperate, all-or-nothing attack!
As a result, not only did he fail to drive away the thief, but he also suffered broken arms and severe injuries.
Just how powerful is this thief?
An indescribable chill instantly shot from the tailbone of Ancestor Yanlie straight to the top of his head!
At this moment, Ancestor Yanlie's mentality finally underwent a tremendous change!
While burning the immortal crystals stored within his body to repair the terrifying wounds on his arms and chest, Ancestor Yan Lie frantically summoned the immortal matter of the Heavenly Dao Origin to descend.
He retreated rapidly, trying to create distance between himself and Chen Fei.
At the same time, Ancestor Yanlie stared intently at Chen Fei's face and aura, trying to imprint every detail of this scoundrel into the depths of his soul.
We must leave immediately!
Next time... next time we must gather the other elders and together we will surround and kill this fiend!
"Want to leave?"
Chen Fei looked at the Yan Lie Ancestor, whose aura was fluctuating wildly, and chuckled softly.
Secret Technique: Nine Hells Severing Heavenly Veins!
"Buzz!"
A terrifying aura that severed all connections and sealed away spiritual energy descended instantly!
Nine jet-black chains, etched with natural rules, appeared out of thin air above Ancestor Yanlie's head, intertwining to form a huge, jet-black cage.
The moment the cage was formed, Ancestor Yanlie clearly felt that the originally clear connection between himself and the origin of the Heavenly Dao instantly became weak, blurry, and almost severed!
The torrent of immortal matter that should have been flowing down to repair his body was abruptly stopped in mid-air!
"Nine Hells Sever the Heavenly Vein!"
Ancestor Yan Lie's face instantly turned ashen, his scarlet demonic eyes filled with extreme horror and disbelief!
"This is a forbidden technique researched by those heretics back then. It has long been destroyed. How could you possibly know it!"
Chen Fei did not answer, but simply raised the Qian Yuan Sword in his hand again.
"Do not!!"
Ancestor Yan Lie let out a desperate roar, hastily gathering his remaining demonic energy to create layers upon layers of dark red fire shields in front of him.
However, without the timely replenishment of immortal matter, his already severely injured body was greatly weakened, and the hastily set up defenses were simply unable to withstand this sword strike.
"puff!"
The crimson fire shield shattered one after another like paper, and the sword light slashed fiercely at Ancestor Yanlie's body.
Blood mist sprayed out like a waterfall, and the huge crack on Ancestor Yanlie's chest was instantly torn apart and expanded, his body almost split in two.
"Stop it! Stop it!"
Ancestor Yan Lie panicked completely. He desperately urged his fire element to break through the Nine Hells Heaven-Slaying Vein's seal and draw down the immortal matter, while roaring at Chen Fei:
"Misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! I admit defeat! Take the Mystic Crystal Pillar, and we'll call it quits!"
"If you kill me, you will be afflicted with an even deeper mark of malice from the Heavenly Dao, a loss that will not outweigh the gain! Let me leave, and I swear I will never be your enemy again!"
"Ah."
Upon hearing this, Chen Fei's smile widened.
"Before the fight, they kept saying they would grind me to dust and scatter my ashes, and forever bury my soul."
"You can't win, so you just say it's a misunderstanding and expect me to let you leave?"
"You can't have all the good things in this world, can you?"
"Zheng!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Qian Yuan Sword in Chen Fei's hand erupted with a deafening sword cry that pierced the sky, tearing through space and striking directly at the head of Ancestor Yan Lie.
At the same time, the echoes of time within the Void Treasury began to resonate.
"Buzz!"
A figure with the exact same aura, cultivation level, and appearance as Chen Fei appeared silently beside Ancestor Yan Lie.
The sword blade that had been gathered in his hand in the future, carrying the same power of destruction, was thrust out fiercely at Ancestor Yan Lie.
Chen Fei had already assessed his current combat strength and no longer needed to delay or test him.
"Roar!"
Ancestor Yanlie let out a wild, desperate, and unwilling roar, as he sensed the approach of death.
Ancestor Yan Lie frantically burned his divine soul essence in a final struggle, and dark red flames soared into the sky.
However, everything is in vain!
"puff!"
Two soft sounds, one after the other.
Chen Fei's sword aura severed the last resistance of Ancestor Yan Lie, annihilating his soul and head together.
The future form's sword blade pierced through the body of Ancestor Yanlie with unparalleled precision, and the violent sword energy instantly shredded the core of his body into dust.
Ancestor Yan Lie's massive body suddenly froze, and his scarlet demonic eyes instantly lost all their luster, leaving only endless unwillingness and reluctance, as well as deep-seated regret!
He, the mighty Fire Spirit Ancestor at the peak of the Immortal Realm, is a being who stands at the pinnacle of this world, possessing endless lifespan and wielding immense power.
As a result, he actually perished at the hands of an extraterrestrial immortal in the late stage of the Immortal Realm.
How could he accept this? How could he rest in peace?!
If only he had known... if only he had known, he would never have chased after them out of the tower.
The thought of regret became the last utterance of Ancestor Yanlie before his consciousness dissipated.
"boom!"
The body of Ancestor Yanlie crumbled and disintegrated like a weathered sand sculpture, eventually turning into countless dark golden specks of light, which, along with his unwilling roar, vanished into the rolling cold air of the Frozen Prison.
Chen Fei raised his hand, and purple qi came from the east—the purple qi causal bond quietly began to operate.
In the void, a force of fortune far more powerful and refined than the one that had killed Lu Zijing surged forth from nothingness, silently merging into Chen Fei's already vast and boundless fortune.
A hint of surprise flashed in Chen Fei's eyes.
These fire spirits, which gave birth to highly intelligent beings and established a cultivation civilization, had their fortune plundered after their fall, and the quality and quantity of this fortune were in no way inferior to that of the same level of immortal realm powerhouses in the Xuan Yu Realm.
Outside the Heavenly Pillar, those Immortal Realm Fire Spirits had absolutely no luck.
Chen Fei calmed his mind and carefully sensed the malevolent influence of the Heavenly Dao emanating from his body.
To Chen Fei's surprise, although the Heavenly Dao's malice had increased, the increase was far less intense than when he had previously intercepted immortal matter.
Chen Fei's gaze flickered. Intercepting and plundering the immortal matter within the origin of the Heavenly Dao was the main reason for the violent malicious backlash from the Heavenly Dao in the secret realm.
While killing these fire spirits would attract the attention and malice of the Heavenly Dao, the degree of "hatred" would be far less than that of the former.
Chen Fei looked up at the torrent of immortal matter in the sky that was slowly dissipating and returning to the origin of the Heavenly Dao due to the failure of the Nine Hells Heaven-Slaying Vein, and did not try to stop it.
"Although intercepting immortal matter can yield immortal crystals, the malice of the Heavenly Dao that it triggers is too profound, and the gains do not outweigh the losses."
A thought flashed through his mind, and at the same time, Chen Fei flipped his right hand, forcibly condensing the essence of Ancestor Yan Lie. Immediately afterwards, the Chaos Furnace started operating silently.
"Buzz!"
An invisible force of devouring descended, sweeping away all of Ancestor Yanlie's fire spirit essence into the depths of the Chaos Furnace.
The burning embers trace back to their origins, and the chaotic flames rise, enveloping and igniting the essence of Ancestor Yanlie.
Under the scorching and tracing of the flames, the deepest and most core fragments of memory imprinted by Ancestor Yanlie before his death were forcibly peeled off and manifested, like pages of a book being turned, clearly presented in Chen Fei's sea of consciousness.
That was a magnificent life journey spanning millions of years—from an ignorant fire spirit born from the lava at the Earth's core, to a cultivator who had just begun to understand the laws of fire, and then to the Fiery Ancestor who traversed secret realms, established the Fire Spirit Civilization, and reached the peak of the Immortal Realm!
Conquering, ruling, exploring the mysteries of secret realms, clashing with other powerful fire spirits... countless scenes, insights, and secrets flashed by like a revolving lantern!
[New cultivation technique discovered: Heaven-Burning Annihilation Technique (Fragment)]
A new message appeared on the panel: it was the core cultivation technique practiced by Ancestor Yanlie.
As the fragments of memory flowed by, Chen Fei's eyes suddenly lit up!
Among these fragments of memory, Chen Fei clearly "saw" nearly a hundred spaces that were similar to, or even more ancient and magnificent than, the previous central tower space.
These nodal spaces are also the core holy sites of the Fire Spirit Civilization, guarded by other peak-level Fire Spirit Ancestors.
Many sacred sites of the Fire Spirit Civilization are not located within this Heavenly Pillar. In fact, there are nine similar Heavenly Pillars within this secret realm, and this is just one of them.
What stirred Chen Fei's heart was that within these Fire Spirit Holy Lands, there were entities similar to the Immortal Mystic Crystal Pillars.
That was a special item that the Fire Spirit Clan had specially condensed and sealed, allowing Fire Spirits below the Immortal Realm to cultivate more effectively.
