Chapter 874: Fight to the Death

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Su Lianyuan tried to evade, but found it was already too late. With this strike, it felt as if all possible retreat options had been seen through by the opponent.

Retreating would only put him at a disadvantage, as there wouldn’t even be enough time to defend.

Realizing this, Su Lianyuan positioned the Splitting Lance in front of him, while all his armored soldiers surged forward to shield him from the blow.

The blade of the Concealment Sword cut through the soldiers as if piercing through foam, offering no resistance whatsoever.

“Boom!”

The space around Su Lianyuan trembled slightly, as if the entire area was about to shatter into nothingness.

Su Lianyuan stared at Chen Fei with disbelief. His mouth moved as if to speak, but no words came out.

In the next moment, Su Lianyuan’s hands, holding the Splitting Lance, exploded into a cloud of blood.

Not only his hands, but a colossal force extended upwards from there, tearing apart Su Lianyuan’s skin, flesh, and even bones along the way.

Su Lianyuan’s body shuddered slightly, involuntarily taking a step back before exploding into blood mist.

The Myriad Clones surrounding Chen Fei instantly froze, and a gust of wind swept through, turning them to ashes.

Chen Fei sheathed his sword, and the cracks in the space ahead were filled by the surrounding heavenly essence, gradually calming down.

One strike, and a mid-stage Fourth Rank from the Shadow Island was instantly slain.

There was no need for Nine Stars Row, innate skills, or burning divine souls.

Chen Fei’s current foundation was so solid that it should not appear in a mid-stage Fourth Rank.

“Excellent!”

On the side of the Boundless Sea, intense cheers erupted.

The suppressed emotions from the previous defeat in the early Fourth Rank stage exploded forth.

Even the Sun Moon Realm and Monster Emperors couldn’t help but smile.

Chen Fei’s performance in this battle was exhilarating.

Su Lianyuan of the same rank was unable to withstand even a single strike from Chen Fei.

Su Lianyuan was definitely not weak. The aura of war was so formidable that even Zhu Xiaowen from the Boundless Sea’s mid-stage Fourth Rank wouldn’t dare claim certainty of victory.

Let alone being defeated by a single strike.

In front of the central hall of the Sacred City, cheers soared to the skies.

Although it was just one victory, Chen Fei’s displayed momentum gave everyone hope for the mid-stage Fourth Rank fight.

The Mortal Combat battle not only determined the fate of the contestants but also concerned the future of the entire Boundless Sea.

On the Shadow Island side, She Qianling and others looked grave.

Losing one person was nothing, but the power Chen Fei displayed was too overwhelming!

If it weren’t for the Boundless Sea’s rules remaining unchanged, they might even suspect that Zhan Xuming and others were cheating.

“She Qiu, do you have confidence against him?” She Qianling turned to one person beside him.

The She surname is the largest in the Shadow Island; only true direct descendants or exceptionally talented individuals could hold this surname.

She Qiu didn’t speak, staring at Chen Fei on the field, recalling the sword strike Chen Fei had just executed.

“He is strong, but I will kill him!” She Qiu said resolutely.

“Good!” She Qianling’s face involuntarily showed a smile.

No matter whether She Qiu’s confidence was genuine or not, maintaining the spirit was the most important thing.

If one believes they cannot win even before the battle starts, they will inevitably fail.

On the field, Chen Fei noticed Zhan Xuming and others signaling for him to take a break and let someone else take his place.

Although Chen Fei had only used one strike, they clearly saw the state of Nine Stars Row.

This technique in the Stellar Divine Technique is a forbidden technique, and disciples of the Stellar Sacred Land could only use it once.

Any more would result in backlash.

Chen Fei smiled slightly, waved his hand, and turned to the Black Divine’s side.

The heavenly essence within a hundred miles surged towards Chen Fei, maintaining the Nine Stars Row.

Yes, Chen Fei had not even dissipated the Nine Stars Row state.

With the Great Completion Realm’s Nine Heavens Stellar Technique absorbing the heavenly essence, the process was already incredibly fast, combined with the endless innate ability, drawing essence from the void.

In terms of spiritual power, Chen Fei was not lacking at all.

As for the physical strain of Nine Stars Row, it posed no pressure at all to Chen Fei now.

Even the consumption of divine soul was managed by innate Divine Blessing and the Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique.

Thus, simply maintaining the Nine Stars Row was like being in a normal state for Chen Fei, with no burden at all.

The Black Divine’s crimson eyes watched Chen Fei as a figure leaped onto the field, revealing a face behind the black mist.

“Nine Stars Row, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen someone use this secret art!”

Gu Jijiang’s slightly pale face calmly looked at Chen Fei, with the corner of his mouth slowly curling up.

“Are you a disciple of the Stellar Sacred Land?” Chen Fei, sensing Gu Jijiang’s aura, couldn’t help but chuckle.

“A thousand years, and I wonder if anyone in the sect still remembers me, Gu Jijiang!”

A wave of aura burst from Gu Jijiang’s body, accompanied by a sense of hatred that spread with his words.

“Gu Jijiang?”

Zhan Xuming frowned at the figure on the field.

“Former disciple of the Stellar Sacred Land from a thousand years ago, with extremely high talent. He reached the peak of the Mountain Sea Realm and tried to break through to the Sun Moon Realm once but failed.”

Zhan Xuming looked at Gu Jijiang on the field and continued, “Later, to break through the Sun Moon Realm, he used blood sacrifices, secretly slaughtering fifteen cities. After being discovered by the sect, I personally imprisoned him in the Demon Sealing Ridge.”

To break through to higher realms, many take risks.

Especially after a failed attempt, the desire to succeed can become an obsession.

Massacre and blood sacrifices are entirely contrary to the Stellar Sacred Land’s principles. If Gu Jijiang had succeeded in breaking through to the Sun Moon Realm, it would have done more harm than good for the sect.

This is because, to break through, Gu Jijiang would cross his own limits.

In the future, Gu Jijiang might even make more extreme decisions, sacrificing the entire Stellar Sacred Land for his own gain.

By then, Gu Jijiang would have the power to accomplish such acts.

Thus, the Stellar Sacred Land chose to let Gu Jijiang die of old age in the Demon Sealing Ridge.

Gu Jijiang’s current hatred stems from this. In his view, he was so close to breaking through to the Sun Moon Realm, only to be imprisoned by the Stellar Sacred Land, never to achieve his goal.

Zhan Xuming, who captured him back then, and the entire Stellar Sacred Land deserved to die!

Gu Jijiang’s eyes had turned completely red at some point, filled with hatred and murderous intent as he looked at Chen Fei.

To Gu Jijiang, since Chen Fei could use Nine Stars Row, he must be a disciple of the Stellar Sacred Land.

Thus, he deserved to die!

“Bang!”

Gu Jijiang stepped back with his right foot, and amidst the roaring heavenly essence, charged at Chen Fei.

Nine stars flashed around Gu Jijiang’s body, and three illusory divine palaces appeared within him, with a majestic aura shooting into the sky.

Gu Jijiang was extremely familiar with the Stellar Divine Technique. Having died in the Demon Sealing Ridge, his residual soul’s obsession was incredibly strong.

Reincarnated by the Black Divine, Gu Jijiang’s understanding of the Stellar Divine Technique had not faded at all due to his obsession.

Moreover, during his imprisonment in the Demon Sealing Ridge, Gu Jijiang was constantly thinking about escaping.

Normally, the Stellar Divine Technique couldn’t break the Demon Sealing Ridge’s seals, even Nine Stars Row was ineffective.

Thus, Gu Jijiang sought transformation in his death, evolving the already violent Stellar Divine Technique towards a more destructive path.

The three illusory divine palaces that had just appeared inside Gu Jijiang suddenly collapsed, resulting in self-shattering divine palaces.

Violent spiritual power filled Gu Jijiang’s entire body instantly, but that was not the end.

Nine black stars appeared around Gu Jijiang’s body, echoing with the previous Nine Stars Row, like shadows of Nine Stars Row.

The destructive aura Gu Jijiang emitted instantly contracted, and the space around him rippled, with minute spatial cracks appearing.

In the next moment, Gu Jijiang vanished. Within a hundred miles, all traces and even the aura of Gu Jijiang disappeared.

Chen Fei’s gaze swept around, and the Concealment Sword in his hand slashed sideways.

As an observer, Chen Fei, with his Instant Thousand Year, could perceive more clearly than any onlooker.

Gu Jijiang reversed the Nine Stars Row, gaining a near-void displacement ability.

The distance wasn’t as far as innate displacement, which could span nearly a hundred miles, but the concealment was extremely strong due to the complete concentration of all power.

Even the spatial fluctuations were minimal.

However, Chen Fei had innate displacement, endless ability, and Instant Thousand Year. Even the tiniest detail could be magnified infinitely in his eyes

“Boom!”

A massive sonic boom erupted in midair as a figure was forced out by Chen Fei’s sword, stumbling backward. It was the vanished Gu Jijiang.

“Your power, your Stellar Divine Technique, is not right!”

Gu Jijiang looked up at Chen Fei, eyes full of disbelief.

Gu Jijiang’s understanding of the Stellar Divine Technique in the Mountain Sea Realm was unparalleled, and even the sect’s master wouldn’t surpass him in this aspect.

Reversing the Nine Stars Row, with the clash of light and dark forces, brought Gu Jijiang’s power to its peak.

Yet, despite this, he found himself in a severe disadvantage in a straightforward confrontation, to the point where he couldn’t even stop his own movements.

It should be noted that the Black Divine’s reincarnation had pushed their physical and recovery limits to the current extreme, which was why Gu Jijiang could perform the Stellar Divine Technique to such an extent.

But why was Chen Fei able to contend so fiercely?

“Who said I’m using the Stellar Divine Technique?”

Chen Fei shook his head slightly, stepping through the spatial rift to appear in front of Gu Jijiang, and struck again with his sword.

Chen Fei did not need to understand why Gu Jijiang, a disciple of the Stellar Sacred Land, harbored such hatred.

What Chen Fei needed to do was simply to kill Gu Jijiang!

“Kill me? You won’t fare any better!”

Gu Jijiang couldn’t shed the immense power within him in time. His eyes revealed a frenzied look as the eighteen stars on his body suddenly exploded, along with his innate abilities.

He wanted to perish together!

Chen Fei’s brow twitched slightly as a phantom sword shadow appeared above the nine Divine Palaces.

Sword Dominates the Galaxy!

“Swish!”

As the blade of the Concealment Sword passed, space shattered, and a massive crack appeared, quickly engulfing Gu Jijiang entirely.

Gu Jijiang’s roars and sky-high hatred abruptly ceased and disappeared without a trace.

The fish might die, but the net would not break!
