Chapter 1861 Battle Against a Late-Stage Immortal (4K)
Deep within the void of the Guixu Realm, Chen Fei sat cross-legged, a vast amount of insights echoing within his sea of consciousness.
As time went by, the primordial energy of heaven and earth within the entire Guixu Realm began to boil, and the rhythm of boiling was erratic. At times, the concentration of primordial energy would gather at an astonishing speed, and then suddenly stop, returning to its original state at an unexpected speed.
Most creatures within the Void Realm were unaware of this change; only cultivators who had reached the sixth rank or higher would react.
However, cultivators at this level have become somewhat accustomed to the cultivation rhythm of their realm lord over the years.
Judging from the fact that the Guixu Realm underwent four changes last time, it is very likely that it will also undergo four changes this time. However, from now until now, this is only the second time.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Fei slowly opened his eyes.
【Void Treasure: Void Shadows - Time Rift Walk (Breaking Limits)】
Looking at the information on the panel, Chen Fei disappeared from the Realm of Return to Nothingness and appeared in the Secret Realm.
The Night Demon Warrior turned to look at Chen Fei's true form, activated the Purple Qi Karma Binding, and then threw a punch.
Because the Purple Qi Karma Binding contains the power of the law of cause and effect, it can reverse cause and effect, and has the power to hit the mark and plunder luck.
At this moment, in Chen Fei's own eyes, even if he activated the Void Treasure Moment Premonition, the future he saw was that he would be hit by the Night Demon Warrior.
"Buzz!"
Just as the Night Demon Warrior's fist was about to land on Chen Fei's shoulder, Chen Fei activated Time Walk, and the entire world suddenly stopped in his sight.
Chen Fei observed the Night Demon Warriors in front of him, and also watched the fluctuations of the rules of heaven and earth within the entire secret realm, and even the Heavenly Dao at a higher level, and he seemed to have some understanding.
At this moment, in Chen Fei's eyes, both the primordial energy of heaven and earth and the rules of heaven and earth within a radius of tens of thousands of miles were in a state of almost complete stagnation.
But in more distant places, the rules of heaven and earth are still in operation. The farther away from Chen Fei, the more normal the speed at which the rules of heaven and earth operate.
As for the secret realm of the Heavenly Dao above the sky, because it is the farthest away, its operating speed is no different from that before Chen Fei used the Time-Space Walk.
This feeling is extremely strange. Normally, if the surrounding天地元气 (heaven and earth energy) and天地规则 (heaven and earth rules) have stagnated, then places further away should also be in a state of stagnation.
After all, the world should be a whole; it can't be stagnant on one side while fluctuating on the other.
However, the actual situation was just as Chen Fei had observed: one end was stagnant while the other end was still fluctuating up and down.
This reminded Chen Fei of the vast ocean. As long as the ocean is large enough, even if one area is completely frozen or even stagnant, it will not affect the surging waves of the sea in other areas.
The conditions in the sea area may not match what Chen Fei sees now, but the distance will indeed affect the power of the extended characteristic of Time Slot Walk.
Chen Fei withdrew his gaze and sensed the rapid depletion of the immortal power within his body, and even the depletion of his very essence.
The longer one remains in this stagnant state, the faster the immortal power and essence will be consumed, increasing in a step-like manner.
Chen Fei tried to activate the Void Battle Body and the Divine Restriction Transformation Technique without any obstacles, but the consumption of immortal power became more severe.
Just as Chen Fei had thought when he made his choice within the Void Origin, the Time Walk after breaking the limit allows him to accumulate enough offensive power while in a stagnant state.
Furthermore, Chen Fei was able to sense the connection between the ripples of time—the collapse of spacetime—and the walk through time gaps.
Spacetime Collapse transforms the opponent's attack into a time disturbance, which is then amplified on oneself. The duration of the time disturbance is the same as the duration of the opponent's attack.
During the stagnant state of the Time Slot Walk, Chen Fei can unleash the power within the time disturbance all at once, creating a stronger burst of instantaneous force.
This is the synergy of two time projection extension characteristics, allowing the power to no longer be limited to the time span, but to be condensed into a single point.
Chen Fei himself took a step back, avoiding the inevitable hit from the Night Demon Warrior.
There is no absolute perfection. Many of the power results described in Void Treasure and Extension Properties will lose their effect when they encounter a countering Extension Property.
Just like now, the Purple Qi Karma Binding technique was said to be able to hit its target every time, but in the end, the Time Gap Walk broke through this guarantee of success.
The Night Demon Warrior vanished, disappearing into Chen Fei's shadow.
Chen Fei activated the Heavenly Cycle Record and, in conjunction with the Primordial Qi Master, began absorbing the surrounding天地元气 (Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi) to replenish the loss of his Immortal Power.
Then Chen Fei looked up at the pillar of light falling from the sky. After staring at it for a few breaths, Chen Fei activated the Void Secret Treasury, Void Shadow, and tried to gather the energy tide within the pillar of light.
Before the Void Shadow of the Void Treasure Trove developed its extended properties, it was only at the thirteenth-tier power level. It was effective in concealing Chen Fei's identity, but the effect was limited.
Just like the past self summoned from the Void Treasure Time Remnant, its cultivation level was limited to the initial stage of the Immortal Realm.
Now, with the refinement of the extended properties of Void Shadow, Chen Fei not only gained an additional power, but the power level of Void Shadow also increased.
Sure enough, as time went by, in less than a dozen breaths, the ripples of energy within the pillar of light began to shrink in size.
The area, which had previously been 300 million li, continued to shrink until it finally settled at 78 million li.
At this distance, the power of the Void Shadow could no longer reduce the range of the Qi Tide.
If Chen Fei had chosen the Heavenly Trap instead of the Time Walk, the range of the Qi Tide should still be able to shrink further.
After all, the Heavenly Trap is a kind of enhancement to the power of the Void Shadow Concealment, while the Time Walk is simply an extension of another power.
Chen Fei turned his gaze away from the sky and looked to his right.
The impending storm hadn't dissipated; in fact, it was intensifying. This meant that the Immortal Realm experts, arriving following the tide of energy, were now within 78 million miles.
Therefore, the shrinking range of the Qi tide did not affect the pursuit of the Immortal Realm experts.
"If there's no sense of despair like facing the abyss, and the person isn't at the peak of the Immortal Realm but still poses a threat to me, then they must be a late-stage Immortal Realm expert, and there should only be one. Otherwise, if there were more than one, my sense of danger would be much stronger!"
A thought flashed through Chen Fei's mind. Instead of avoiding it, Chen Fei stood there.
The Night Demon Warriors chose to stay here because if they continued to wander around, they might encounter even more late-stage or peak-stage Immortal Realm experts.
At this moment, the range of the Qi tide has shrunk, but the probability of this has only decreased slightly. After all, the area of 78 million li in radius is still considered huge.
Rather than facing a peak Immortal Realm expert, it's better to stand here and face a late-stage Immortal Realm expert.
Moreover, this late-stage Immortal Realm cultivator had already pursued Chen Fei to within 78 million miles. Before the Qi tide ended, the opponent was still able to locate Chen Fei.
Given that Chen Fei might not be able to escape in a straight line, the probability of being caught by the opponent was already extremely high.
Several dozen breaths passed in the blink of an eye. Chen Fei's eyes flickered slightly as he sensed an Immortal Realm expert rushing towards them.
"Chen Fei of the Illusion Sect?"
A figure appeared tens of thousands of miles away. Yin Henglin, a late-stage Immortal Realm Heavenly Demon, stared at Chen Fei with his eyes slightly narrowed.
Chen Fei's information is now known to all the extraterrestrial demons in the Xuan Yu Realm. What surprised Yin Henglin at this moment was that the one who obtained the fourteenth-grade mid-level spiritual material was this prodigy who had just broken through to the Immortal Realm not long ago.
It should be noted that Yin Henglin had been tracking the Qi tides all the way, and had sensed that the speed of the Qi tide displacement had reached the level of the late Immortal Realm.
Yin Henglin had considered that the one who possessed this high-ranking spiritual material might be a prodigy in the mid-stage of the Immortal Realm, or another powerful expert in the late-stage of the Immortal Realm, but he never imagined that it would be Chen Fei of the Illusionary Transformation Sect.
"Tianluo Sect, Yin Henglin!"
Chen Fei looked at Yin Henglin, searched for information on the powerful figures among the extraterrestrial demons, and remembered the identity of this immortal realm expert, Yin Henglin, the withered bone.
The cultivation technique he practices is related to the withered bones and skeletal remains. A late-stage Immortal Realm cultivator once fell at Yin Henglin's hands, and it is said that the soul of that late-stage Immortal Realm cultivator is still imprisoned in Yin Henglin's hands.
Yin Henglin did not respond to Chen Fei's words. He scanned the surroundings and found no trace of other Immortal Realm cultivators. Moreover, the energy tide was indeed rippling out from Chen Fei.
In other words, Chen Fei of the Illusionary Gate somehow acquired the speed and agility of the late-stage Immortal Realm, but at this moment, he does indeed appear to be only at the early-stage Immortal Realm.
"You didn't run away when you saw me? I was waiting for your helpers to appear. What are you waiting for?"
Yin Henglin's condescending voice resounded in Chen Fei's ears, and then a black curtain appeared above Chen Fei's head at some unknown time, about to completely envelop him.
Yin Henglin was still unsure of Chen Fei's situation, so he decided to launch a direct attack to test him.
Even a mere early-stage Immortal Realm cultivator, who had only recently broken through, could not withstand Yin Henglin's attacks, even if they were merely probing.
Chen Fei looked up at the descending black sky, his figure suddenly blurring as he narrowly avoided Yin Henglin's attack.
This sudden burst of speed revealed Chen Fei's hidden mid-stage Immortal Realm cultivation.
Chen Fei wasn't sure which Immortal Realm expert would appear, so he simply concealed his cultivation within the spatial grid. Although the previous shift in his Qi tides had already revealed the speed and agility of a late-stage Immortal Realm expert.
However, movement techniques are movement techniques, and there are many ways to explain them. They are not the same as cultivation levels that are completely intuitive.
Now that it has been confirmed that it is an extraterrestrial demon, this battle is naturally not going to end well. In that case, it doesn't matter whether we hide our cultivation level or not.
Seeing that Chen Fei had forcefully evaded his attack using the movement techniques of the late-stage Immortal Realm, Yin Henglin's eyes widened slightly.
Yin Henglin's eyes widened, not because of the speed of movement in the late stage of the Immortal Realm, because he had already sensed this in the Qi tide.
What truly surprised Yin Henglin was Chen Fei's current cultivation level of the mid-stage of the Immortal Realm!
He had only broken through to the early stage of the Immortal Realm less than a year ago, how did he suddenly become the middle stage of the Immortal Realm?
Previously, a mid-grade fourteenth-rank spiritual material fell into Chen Fei's hands, but having a spiritual material of a certain rank is not entirely equivalent to being able to break through a cultivation level.
Other early-stage Immortals who obtain mid-grade 14th-rank spiritual materials can easily break through to the mid-stage Immortal realm because they have already cultivated to the peak of the early-stage Immortal realm for a long time, and all they lack is a single rank spiritual material.
But how long has Chen Fei been cultivating in the Immortal Realm? How could he have broken through so easily!
Is there another place within this Fire Spirit Secret Realm where one can rapidly attain enlightenment? Or is there some other great secret about Chen Fei?
"Wow!"
As if the Milky Way were reversed, a city of skeletons appeared at Yin Henglin's feet. The shadow of the city of skeletons radiated for hundreds of thousands of miles, and also enveloped Chen Fei.
The Eternal City of Bones, where all spirits are bricks and tiles, and wailing builds immortality!
They slaughtered countless cities, using corpses as foundation and living souls as sustenance, to build living fortresses on the "extremely yin earth veins." Within the city walls, they sealed in the "law of immortality"—wherever the fortress reached, the flesh and blood of all living beings would become nourishment for the city walls, never to be freed.
This is the cultivation technique that Yin Henglin practices, which is both offensive and defensive. If he reaches the point of exhausting his immortal crystals with his opponent, Eternal Calamity Fortress can also reduce the immortal power that Yin Henglin consumes.
"Roar!"
Millions of pained faces appeared on the surface of the city wall, reciting the "Lament for the Dead".
The face fell away to become [Nightwalking Candle Skeleton]—a human skin as a robe, bones as a frame, a heart burning with ghostly blue soul fire as a lamp, wielding rusty torture instruments, and charged straight at Chen Fei.
In just a moment, Chen Fei was surrounded by an overwhelming mass of Nightwalker Candles.
Despite his superior attitude towards Chen Fei, a mid-stage Immortal Realm cultivator, Yin Henglin did not weaken his attacks at all, treating Chen Fei as a late-stage Immortal Realm cultivator.
In a duel, if you are outmatched, then naturally you have no excuse for losing. But if you lose because of carelessness, that is unforgivable.
Having already cultivated to the late stage of the Immortal Realm, Yin Henglin would not make such a mistake.
Chen Fei watched the Nightwalker Candle Corpses surging towards him without any change in expression. The Primordial Qi Master - Time and Space Primordial Qi Traverse Flow within his body was already in operation.
Any negative effects on a cultivator's vital energy (such as vital energy sealing or vital energy pollution) will be automatically reversed back to an "ineffective" state by the Spacetime Vital Energy Traversal.
These nocturnal candelabras might be slightly more troublesome to encounter in other immortal realms, as they are extremely polluted.
But before Chen Fei could even get a thousand miles away, these nocturnal cannon skeletons were reversed by the flow of time and space energy and transformed into the primordial energy of heaven and earth.
Chen Fei took a step forward, and the space collapsed into steps. With one step, Chen Fei appeared in front of Yin Henglin.
Along the way, the remains of the night-walking candles he encountered had already dissipated into the primordial energy of heaven and earth before they even got close to Chen Fei.
Chen Fei activated the Heavenly Cause and Universe Record, and the boiling immortal power surged into his boiling battle intent, increasing Chen Fei's combat power by 30%. This was an additional boost on top of the 30% increase from the Tai Xu Battle Body and the Divine Forbidden Mortal Transformation without damage.
Chen Fei's inner essence began to collapse, and the ripples of time began to circulate, forcibly maintaining his state.
"boom!"
Chen Fei kicked the city wall of Eternal Calamity Stronghold, and with a loud bang, the wall was kicked through.
