Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

Thousands of miles away, Qu Tianfang held a jade token, receiving messages from within, with a hint of surprise on his face.

After chasing for such a long distance, they had only just managed to intercept the person and had even besieged them for a while, yet they still hadn’t truly captured them.

Three peers besieging one person should have been an easy task.

If it weren’t for Ling Shourong’s straightforward remarks, Qu Tianfang would have thought that the techniques used by that person were not from any renowned martial sect, not even associated with the top powers. He couldn’t help but wonder if they had encountered someone from a prestigious family.

“I didn’t expect to encounter a genius, what a pity.”

Qu Tianfang shook his head. Meeting in such a manner, even Qu Tianfang wouldn’t be able to let the other party leave easily afterward.

After all, with such talent, there was no guarantee they wouldn’t achieve something in the future.

Tianyang Sacred Land had no fear, and Qu Tianfang himself wasn’t afraid either, but there was still a hidden danger there, which was entirely unnecessary.

Thousands of miles away, within the Lingyin Mountains, a formation covered

an area of several miles.

Chen Fei’s figure crashed into a mountain peak, but immediately, he activated

his body technique, avoiding the subsequent sword shadow.

Chen Fei appeared in mid-air, several illusory figures flashing around him, confusing the perception of Ling Shourong and his two companions, allowing himself to face only one person or the ambush of two.

However, even with the Thousand Illusions Sky Travel, Chen Fei’s aura had begun to decline.

Since the first exchange where both sides were evenly matched, Ling Shourong and his two companions had become completely serious, facing Chen Fei with full determination.

With the inherent advantage in strength and this level of fighting spirit, the pressure on Chen Fei suddenly surged.

The Heavenly Eye could to some extent see through weaknesses, the Purple Sky Heavenly Song Sword could help Chen Fei seize these weaknesses, and the Thousand Illusions Sky Travel prevented Chen Fei from being truly surrounded by the three.

But human abilities have limits, and the gap in strength was still significant.

Even though Chen Fei had demonstrated the full extent of his clone’s abilities, he couldn’t change the situation.

At this moment, the Thousand Illusions Sky Travel could still confuse the three, but with the continuous use of this technique, Ling Shourong and his companions began to see through it.

Especially for a marksman like Ling Shourong, whose perception was already extremely keen, in a little while, he might be able to directly see through the many illusions and discern where the real body was.

When that moment came, Chen Fei might have to directly face the combined attack of the three.

With the strength of his clones and without the complete talent of Domain Suppression, while he wouldn’t be instantly obliterated by the attack, serious injury would be completely unavoidable.

At this moment, Ling Shourong and his two companions still hadn’t realized that Chen Fei was just a clone.

With the Bloodline Origin Shadow Technique at the Great Completion stage and creating the clone directly from spiritual essence, Chen Fei’s clone was indistinguishable from the real person in terms of sensory perception.

“Boom!”

The string of Ling Shourong’s Shadow Lock Bow trembled, and in the next moment, several arrows appeared around Chen Fei, completely blocking the space where Chen Fei could evade.

Liao Zhixiu clapped the blade in his hand, and the elemental energy of heaven and earth transformed into a downpour, surging toward Chen Fei.

Each drop of this rain was exceptionally sharp, and a chilling aura pervaded the surroundings, freezing the void and restricting Chen Fei’s movements.

Gu Baiquan traced an arc with his Starwind Sword, and a canopy of starlight covered Chen Fei from above. Under the starry sky, a terrifying force pressed down on Chen Fei within a radius of one mile.

Up to this point in the battle, Ling Shourong and his companions had noticed Chen Fei’s exceptional grasp of opportunities, reaching the pinnacle of skill.

Therefore, they directly changed their strategy now, employing pure area attacks to envelop Chen Fei from all directions.

Area attacks, while broad in scope, were weak in power. In a real battle, they

had limited utility unless facing opponents weaker than oneself.

Among peers, such actions couldn’t be deemed entirely useless, but they were highly susceptible to being caught in their vulnerabilities by the enemy, leading to counterattacks.

However, now that they were three individuals, the overlapping of these area attacks compensated for their shortcomings and, at the same time, weakened Chen Fei’s advantage in body technique.

And once Chen Fei showed signs of exhaustion from these attacks, it would be the time for them to launch a full-scale assault.

A gleam appeared at the center of Chen Fei’s eyebrows, and the Changheng

Sword in his hand erupted with intense purple light. The sky was suddenly shrouded in dense clouds, followed by countless thunderbolts.

But before the thunderbolts could reach Chen Fei, Liao Zhixiu raised his Rainstorm Blade, like a vast ocean hovering in mid-air, intercepting all the thunderbolts.

“Boom!”

Thunder roared, violent power raging through the air, and Chen Fei grunted,

his whole body stiffening.

In an instant, Liao Zhixiu and Gu Baiquan appeared before Chen Fei, their blades and swords merging into one, slashing toward him.

With this attack, even a practitioner slightly weaker than Chen Fei at the Mountain Sea Realm would likely be instantly turned into pulp. Even resilient beasts would be severely injured and on the verge of death in an instant.

At this point, all three of them only needed to spare Chen Fei’s life. As for the rest, whether it was destroying his cultivation or severing his limbs and bones, it didn’t matter.

“Boom!”

Chen Fei barely managed to block with the Changheng Sword in front of him. In the next moment, his body trembled violently, unable to control his form, and crashed directly into the mountains below.

Ling Shourong released the string of his bow, and a flash streaked across the sky, penetrating directly into the mountains below.

There was no sound of wind, not even the sound of rocks being pierced, only pure penetration.

Liao Zhixiu and Gu Baiquan each unleashed their respective techniques, and the terrifying force completely engulfed the mountains below.

From the scene just now, Chen Fei had no chance of dodging anymore. The only thing he could do was defend. However, facing the attacks of the three, even if he managed to defend, the best outcome at this moment would still be severe injury.

The greater possibility was imminent death!

As the dust swirled below, Ling Shourong frowned, and Liao Zhixiu and Gu

Baiquan also noticed something unusual. They lifted their gazes and looked towards the other side.

Chen Fei had appeared there somehow, his aura weakened but not to the point of severe injury.

“Teleportation?”

In Ling Shourong’s mind, the scenes of what had just happened flashed through his mind. It couldn’t have been teleportation runes; there wasn’t enough time for that.

It couldn’t have been body technique either. Even if Chen Fei had the ability to dodge at that moment, there should have been traces of it.

After eliminating all possibilities, the only thing left was the Teleportation. Chen Fei didn’t reply. This Innate Teleportation was the clone’s final move. Because the talent was only a small part of the main body, and the divine soul left in the clone was very little, it caused the clone to be unable to use the talent as freely as the main body.

Because every time he used it, the divine soul in the clone would be depleted. After using it a few more times, Chen Fei’s clone would automatically dissipate without Ling Shourong and the others.

There was still a fundamental difference between the clone and the main body.

For the safety of the divine soul, Chen Fei could not inject too much divine soul into the clone. Because once an accident happened, it was very easy for Chen Fei’s divine soul to suffer great damage.

For example, the ability Teleportation could only be used at critical moments.

If he had not come out just now, Chen Fei’s clone would have lost all ability to resist even if it was not destroyed.

Ling Shourong and the other two looked at Chen Fei, and in the next moment, they charged straight at him.

Regardless of whether it was a shift in talent or not, Chen Fei was doomed in their eyes. At this moment, a formation had already been set up around them. Even if it was Teleportation, he would not be able to leave.

Furthermore, they could tell that Chen Fei seemed to be unable to use this talent frequently. It was a huge burden.

Under such circumstances, there was no need to be afraid of anything. It was only a matter of time before he could compress all of Chen Fei’s space and finally capture him.

“Boom!”

Explosions could be heard from within the formation, and there were even occasional ripples.

Fifteen minutes later, Chen Fei’s body was once again smashed into the mountain range. The aura on his body had fallen to a low point, and he was no longer at the peak of the early-stage Mountain Sea Realm.

He was seriously injured and on the verge of death. Any Mountain Sea Realm cultivator could easily kill Chen Fei.

Ling Shourong and the other two stood in the air and looked down at Chen Fei.

In their eyes, Chen Fei had no chance of resisting.

On the other hand, the three of them were completely unharmed at this moment. At most, they had consumed some essence energy, and it was completely harmless.

“Do you know why I practice martial arts?”

“Why?” Liao Zhixiu seemed to think that the situation had been decided. He looked at Chen Fei and chuckled softly.”It’s so I can make some people talk to me calmly!”

Liao Zhixiu looked down at Chen Fei, and the smile on his face grew wider. Then, should I talk to you calmly now?”

Chen Fei’s body moved slightly as he struggled out of the mountain rock. He raised his head and looked at Liao Zhixiu. There was no anger in his expression, but his gaze was extremely cold.

When Liao Zhixiu saw Chen Fei’s gaze, his heart turned cold for some reason. Sensing the change in his heart, Liao Zhixiu snorted angrily out of embarrassment. He raised the Rainstorm Blade in his hand, and in the next moment, countless blades swept towards Chen Fei’s limbs.

Gu Baiquan and Ling Shourong did not say anything and allowed Liao Zhixiu to do whatever she wanted.

“Boom!”

A muffled sound suddenly rang out from the spell formation. Before Ling Shourong and the other two could react, the entire spell formation suddenly shattered. A figure appeared below and blocked the way.

“Block!”

With the sound of metal colliding, Liao Zhixiu’s blade was completely blocked by a sword. When the surrounding energies of Heaven and Earth stopped rolling, Ling Shourong and the other two could clearly see the face of the person blocking below.

Seeing Chen Fei’s face, especially Chen Fei’s aura, the three of them were all stunned.

” That was your clone?”

Ling Shourong asked in surprise when he saw the injured Chen Fei disappear and merge into his body.

Especially the aura of Chen Fei’s original body. It looked like there were only two Divine Palaces. Was the realm of this clone even higher than the original body?

“Yeah, that was a clone!”

Chen Fei removed the Qianyuan Sword in front of him and looked up at Ling Shourong and the other two. “Did you enjoy fighting my clone?” he asked.

“How arrogant!”

Looking at the mocking expression on Chen Fei’s face, Ling Shourong and the other two were instantly enraged, and countless attacks surged towards Chen Fei.

At the same time, another formation rose up and enveloped the surroundings to prevent Chen Fei from escaping.

“Arrogant?”

Chen Fei chuckled and stomped down with his right foot. Wherever his foot passed, countless ripples appeared. In the next moment, Chen Fei disappeared from where he was and appeared in front of Liao Zhixiu.

The roar of the ancient beast shook the sky, and the extremely cold sword intent suppressed the surroundings. Lightning shuttled in all directions, covering a radius of one mile like a lightning pool.

Liao Zhixiu sensed the savagery that was coming at him and suddenly felt a chill in his heart. An indescribable horror rose in his heart.

This was the aura of death!

Previously, Chen Fei’s clone’s sword intent was already extremely fierce, but compared to Chen Fei’s true body, the difference was far more than just a few miles.

A Mountain Sea Realm cultivator’s battle prowess was greatly influenced by their talent.

Seeing Chen Fei charge at Liao Zhixiu, Gu Baiquan, and Ling Shourong’s faces darkened. They attacked Chen Fei together.

“Clang!”

The sound of a great bell rang out. The Concealment Bell was sent flying by the two people’s attacks, but the majestic force surged into Chen Fei’s body.

The dragon elephant behind Chen Fei raised its front legs and stepped forward.

“Boom!”

Liao Zhixiu’s eyes widened when the Qianyuan Sword hit the Rainstorm Blade. What kind of power was this?

The Rainstorm Blade could not even maintain a stalemate for a moment. It instantly rolled back and smashed into Liao Zhixiu’s body.

His clothes, skin, muscles, bones, and internal organs were all torn apart by the Rainstorm Blade. His right shoulder, along with a part of his chest and abdomen, turned into a bloody mist.

Liao Zhixiu’s face instantly turned pale, and his entire body crashed into the formation below.

“Can you still talk?” Chen Fei looked down at Liao Zhixiu.

“Puff!”

Liao Zhixiu spat out a mouthful of blood, his breath dying.
