Penetrating

Chen Fei displayed the Purple Sky Heavenly Song Sword and the Slaughter Spirit Technique, concealing all of his breath within his body, as if transforming into a stubborn stone.

After a moment, the movement on the ground had ceased.

Or rather, the cataclysmic tremor just now seemed to have lasted only a moment, in Chen Fei’s perception, it was as if the heavens and earth had fallen silent.

Not to mention Chen Fei’s current avatar, even if the real Chen Fei had been on the ground just now, facing such a powerful impact, he would have been torn apart in an instant.

And before the Suppressing Dragon Elephant reached its peak, possessing the characteristic of rebirth through blood, the real Chen Fei would probably have died directly, with no possibility of survival.

This was the most terrifying force Chen Fei had faced since breaking through to the Mountain Sea Realm.

The Black Divine back then was definitely fundamentally higher in essence, but at that time, Chen Fei didn’t feel it deeply, after all, his own realm was there.

Also, when dozens of monsters besieged outside Feihuang City back then, and the Feihuang Sect’s Mountain Sea Realm pinnacle experts made their move, it was not to the extent of going all out.

And even if the Feihuang Sect’s Mountain Sea Realm pinnacle experts had gone all out, whether they had such a momentum was also difficult to say.

The power just now was too pure in its annihilation characteristics, completely unlike the power that human Mountain Sea Realm experts could control.

A faint light emanated from Chen Fei’s brow, as he looked up at the ground. Nothingness!

As Chen Fei’s gaze swept around, within a radius of ten miles, not a single blade of gra.s.s remained, and even all the soil and stones higher than the ground had been completely leveled.

Not only were things higher than the ground affected, but even the ground within the radius of ten miles had formed a huge crater, sending chills down one’s spine.

After checking several times to ensure there was no danger above, Chen Fei’s figure flickered slightly as he moved away from the ground.

Floating in mid-air, Chen Fei turned his head to glance in the direction of the southwest, where several soul imprints pointed in the distance.

It seemed that under the outbreak of such power just now, some Mountain Sea Realm experts managed to preserve their lives. However, even if their lives were preserved, their injuries must be extremely severe.

Withdrawing his gaze, Chen Fei flew to the location where the Feihuang Sect disciples had fallen earlier.

Naturally, there was nothing left here, but perhaps due to the short time, Chen Fei sensed a trace of vegetation.

The aura of this vegetation was no different from that of the Tree King within Feihuang City.

At the same time, within the aura of the vegetation, that sense of annihilation still lingered.

Chen Fei’s brow furrowed slightly. Previously, when he had sensed this sense of annihilation in Feihuang City, Chen Fei had thought it was left behind by monsters.

After all, the power that monsters had possessed to be able to kill such a powerful Tree King had been considerable. Leaving behind such an aura of annihilation had been a very normal occurrence.

But then, a second thought had involuntarily crossed Chen Fei’s mind.

Could it be that the Tree King wasn’t dead yet?

But if the Tree King hadn’t died, and yet the entire Feihuang Sect had been wiped out, combined with what had just happened, could it have been that the real culprit had been that Tree King?

However, this hadn’t made much sense. The Tree King had had a history of thousands of years within the Feihuang Sect, and there had simply been no reason for it to annihilate the sect.

“Was it corrupted by the Black Divine?”

Chen Fei had suddenly remembered that the Feihuang Sect had been collecting subordinates of the Black Divine. Could there have been some connection among them?

Shaking his head, Chen Fei had suppressed all sorts of thoughts in his mind.

Whether the Tree King was dead or not or the true reason for the destruction of the Feihuang Sect, none of those had been things that Chen Fei could partic.i.p.ate in at the time.

In the early stages of the Mountain Sea Realm, in the entire Middle Continent, it had been considered a considerable power.

But the gap between it and those top-tier powers had actually been very obvious. With a slight mistake, the outcome could have been complete annihilation.

Just like the annihilation force that had just occurred, although some Mountain Sea Realm experts had managed to escape, more of them had been left here forever.

Only those in the later stages and pinnacles of the Mountain Sea Realm could escape. The possibility of survival for those in the early stages had been too low.

As Chen Fei’s gaze s.h.i.+fted, a beam of light radiated from his brow, scanning the area within ten li.

In the next moment, Chen Fei appeared on the ground, and with his elemental energy sweeping through, a mottled blade appeared in front of him.

This was a spiritual treasure, but its essence had long been depleted. Not only had the essence been exhausted, but even the blade itself was now riddled with cracks.

The blade slowly floated up and landed in Chen Fei’s hand.

At its peak, this blade had been comparable to the Changheng Sword in Chen Fei’s hand now, but it was completely useless now.

It was more thoroughly damaged than the spiritual treasure fragments Chen Fei had obtained initially. It was the kind of thing that wouldn’t fetch much money even if sold.

Chen Fei’s mind delved into the blade, still holding onto some hope. However, upon seeing that everything inside the blade had been destroyed beyond recognition, he couldn’t help but shake his head.

The annihilation force just now had been too strong. Not only had it exterminated the Mountain Sea Realm experts, but it had also pierced through the spatial confines within the spiritual treasures, leaving nothing behind.

A tiny wisp of spiritual essence flew out from the blade and entered into the Changheng Sword.

As this trace of spiritual essence was drawn away, the blade lost all its power, crumbling into a pile of dust between Chen Fei’s fingers.

The Changheng Sword s.h.i.+mmered faintly, trembling for a moment before returning to calmness.

Initially seized from Wu Zisheng, this Changheng Sword had been temporarily kept by Chen Fei because he hadn’t had the chance to sell it yet.

Later, with his avatar breaking through to the Mountain Sea Realm, Chen Fei decided to let his avatar use this spiritual treasure.

Chen Fei’s figure flickered and appeared in another location, where another spiritual treasure floated up.

This time, it was a sword, but its condition was similar to the previous blade, with only a trace of spiritual essence left to maintain its basic form.

Chen Fei delved his consciousness into the s.p.a.ce within the blade, but the result was no different. Everything had been destroyed, even the elemental energy of the top-grade elemental stones had left no trace.

“Wait, perhaps it’s not that the elemental energy of the top-grade elemental stones disappeared, but rather that it was transformed by that annihilation force within the top-grade elemental stones, subsequently destroying everything within the s.p.a.ce.”

Chen Fei frowned slightly, withdrawing the spiritual essence from the blade and placing it into the Changheng Sword.

Even mosquitoes, though small, are still flesh. Under normal circ.u.mstances, it would be fine for the avatar to use the Changheng Sword and strengthen it a bit.

Chen Fei extended his right hand, his elemental energy swirling. In the next moment, over a dozen streams of light flew to him, all spiritual treasures, but now all were worthless.

Chen Fei delved his consciousness into each one, though he had prepared himself mentally, seeing absolutely nothing left within the spiritual treasures still left him somewhat disappointed.

No elemental stones, no jade slips, no elixirs, nothing was left.

That annihilation force was truly tyrannical to an unimaginable degree, leaving scenes like the current one within the radius of ten li wherever it pa.s.sed.

Whether it was a low-grade spiritual treasure or a middle-grade one, the outcome was no different.

Extracting every trace of spiritual essence from these dozen or so spiritual treasures, Chen Fei then infused them into the body of the Changheng Sword.

The Changheng Sword s.h.i.+mmered with light, and a faint sound of sword resonance echoed around.

Chen Fei’s figure slowly floated up into the air, standing in mid-air, overlooking the scene below, while the heavenly eye at his brow radiated dazzling light.

In the black-and-white vision, many points and lines here appeared distorted, indicating that the impact of the force from just now hadn’t ended yet.

Suddenly, Chen Fei’s expression flickered slightly, a hint of joy appearing in his eyes. In an instant, he disappeared from mid-air, reappearing three li underground.

A faint array enveloped a wooden box, reminiscent of the characteristics of the secret chamber from which it originated.

Chen Fei’s heavenly eye scanned the array, observing the nodes, and then gently pointed his right hand forward.

“Hum!”

The array on the wooden box trembled slightly, then silently dissipated.

With a slightly excited heart, Chen Fei opened the wooden box. However, the next moment, his brow furrowed slightly.

Inside the wooden box lay a book, a jade slip, and a jade box.

The jade slip was now covered in cracks, its spiritual light long gone, evidently destroyed beyond repair.

Chen Fei delved his consciousness into it but found no trace of content.

Despite the protection of the array, the annihilation force had still penetrated through.

Was the array too weak, or was the annihilation force too overpowering?

Surprisingly, the book, though the pages had turned yellow, as if roasted, had not been completely destroyed.

Chen Fei carefully put away the book and then turned his attention to the jade box.

Gently touching the surface seal of the jade box, the fragile seal dissipated instantly. Chen Fei opened the jade box and found inside a Golden Purple Gra.s.s!

Golden Purple Gra.s.s, even more precious than Heavenly Rain Flower, because it can help late-stage Mountain Sea Realm cultivators advance their cultivation.

But what troubled Chen Fei now was that this Golden Purple Gra.s.s had also been damaged. Instead of its usual faint golden hue, its branches and leaves were completely withered, as if all moisture had been drained from it.

At a glance, it looked like an ordinary dried weed.

Chen Fei closed the jade box again, along with the book, and stored them both within the Changheng Sword.

He would find a safe place to examine the book later. As for the Golden Purple Gra.s.s, he would try to see if he could repair it slightly. Such a high-level treasure, to abandon it so easily would be a great pity.

Chen Fei reappeared on the surface, scanning the surroundings with his heavenly eye several times to ensure nothing was missed. Then, using the Slaughter Spirit Technique, he removed most of his soul imprints, before disappearing from the spot.

Chen Fei didn’t take out the Soul Restraint Hairpin. Perhaps with it, he could still find some clues about the fall of the Feihuang Sect.

But evidently, this matter had exceeded Chen Fei’s scope of handling. Continuing would perhaps yield some benefits, but more likely, it would only risk implicating his true self.

In the early stages of the Mountain Sea Realm, there were still some things that Chen Fei couldn’t handle.

Following the direction of Thousand Geese City, Chen Fei transformed into a purple light, streaking across the sky.

At the same time, Chen Fei took out the book and delved his consciousness into it, reading its contents.

Given that it had been specially sealed and stored alongside such treasures as the Golden Purple Gra.s.s, the contents of this book were likely to be extraordinary.
