Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques - Chapter 887

Chapter 887: Arrogant

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

A massive figure appeared behind Chen Fei: it was the Dust Giant Body. Illusory flames burned on both Chen Fei and the Dust Giant Body.

Compared to the last time Chen Fei used it, the Dust Giant Body was now much clearer, and the power contained within it was significantly more exaggerated.

The Dust Giant Body had not yet made a move, but She He’s face had already changed drastically.

Before the match, She Qianling had instructed She He to force Chen Fei to use the Dust Giant Body.

She He had indeed planned to do this. He intended to use his words to provoke Chen Fei after the sword formation descended, hoping to enrage Chen Fei into acting recklessly.

However, She He had not yet spoken, and the second move had not even been executed when Chen Fei proactively deployed the Dust Giant Body.

She He knew that it wasn’t his sword moves that had pressured Chen Fei into using this technique ahead of time.

He didn’t have time to think about the reason, as facing the Dust Giant Body now caused his entire soul to buzz.

This was the reaction usually reserved for imminent life-threatening situations.

In other words, if She He didn’t handle this move properly, he would die directly!

Although She He had prepared himself for death before the match, truly facing death was inevitably not something one could face calmly.

Instinct for survival made She He want to live, even if it meant risking everything to counter-attack Chen Fei!

She Qianling and She Zijing had analyzed that using the Dust Giant Body would put tremendous pressure on Chen Fei. Although it wouldn’t render him immobile, it would certainly weaken him.

She He’s greatest advantage was his inexhaustible vitality, a fusion of his practiced techniques and awakened talent.

“Now!”

She He roared, and the enormous sword formed by tens of thousands of branches instantly vaporized, expanding several times in size.

Typically, the more condensed an attack, the greater its power.

However, this was not always the case. Sometimes, increasing the attack area and drawing on more of the natural energies could also enhance power.

At this moment, the natural energies within a hundred-mile radius formed a funnel-like vortex, adhering to She He’s sword.

She He’s hair turned instantly white, and his face began to age rapidly.

The power had exceeded She He’s limit, and he was directly using his vitality to sustain it.

This was self-damaging, digging into his own reserves, but if it could block the Dust Giant Body, it would all be worth it.

With the powerful regenerative ability of the Wood element, She He didn’t need to worry about dying immediately.

Chen Fei lifted his head slightly, observing the descending sword blade from the sky. Compared to this resilience, Chen Fei seemed like an ant, and even the Dust Giant Body towering several miles high appeared extremely insignificant.

It was as if, in the next moment, both the Dust Giant Body and Chen Fei would be reduced to dust.

Chen Fei held the Qianyuan Sword, his eyes shining with brilliance.

She He’s attackhad too many flaws.

This attack far exceeded She He’s limits, and he could not perfect it. Not only did Chen Fei see the flaws, but many late-stage Mountain Sea Realm experts could also see them.

However, while others might see the flaws, they would be powerless against such an attack, but Chen Fei could act!

Chen Fei stepped forward, swinging the Qianyuan Sword ahead.

The Dust Giant Body behind him followed the same movement, the sword blade extending miles and falling straight down.

“Boom!”

The sword of the Dust Giant Body collided with She He’s colossal sword, causing the entire arena to tremble slightly, and a huge ripple spread out.

She He’s colossal sword halted mid-air, its blade vibrating violently. The next moment, the sword shattered from the tip.

The Dust Law Sword advanced, slicing through She He’s colossal sword completely.

But this was not the end; it was merely the beginning.

The Dust Law Sword traced an arc, falling towards She He in the forest. As the sword passed, the space shattered, leaving a narrow spatial crack trailing behind it.

In the Forest Realm, She He, appearing as withered as a dead tree, suffered a backlash after his colossal sword was shattered, causing his vitality to further drain.

Despite the Forest Realm continuously supplying pure life energy into She He’s body, it could not halt the depletion of his vitality.

She He looked up at the Dust Law Sword and struck his own heart with a punch, the immense force causing his back to bulge outward.

His heart shattered instantly, and the explosion of the broken heart unleashed tremendous power.

Without hesitation, She He continued to punch his torso, crushing all the internal organs and sending a surge of Wood element energy into the Forest Realm.

This was the power She He had stored for times of extreme peril. Only in such dire situations could it be used.

Indeed, this was a genuine crisis. Without a desperate fight, death was inevitable!

Trees in the Forest Realm grew wildly, intertwining to form a massive shield overhead.

The shield’s patterns interwove like the turtle shell patterns of the mythical beast Xuanwu, appearing nearly indestructible.

“Boom!”

The Dust Law Sword struck the shield, and a blinding light erupted from the intersection of the patterns, causing those with slightly lower cultivation levels outside the arena to close their eyes involuntarily.

“Crack!”

The Dust Law Sword paused briefly, and a faint sound came from the shield, followed by fine cracks spreading across it in an instant.

The next moment, the entire shield shattered, and the Forest Realm also exploded, revealing She He within.

She He stood in mid-air, looking up at the sky and watching the Dust Law Sword descend.

Instinctively, She He crossed his arms in a futile attempt to shield himself, only to be instantly consumed by the Dust Law Sword.

All resistance and struggle became null under the sword of the Dust Giant Body.

A massive spatial crack hung in the air, with natural energies wildly pouring in to gradually repair the rift.

She He was strong, but Chen Fei was even stronger, and vastly so.

“Shadow Island’s She Mingjian, please advise!”

With a thunderous shout, She Mingjian from Shadow Island flew into the arena at the moment of She He’s death.

In the previous four deathmatches, the winners had time to decide whether to switch out and rest.

But in this challenge format, where a lower-tier victor challenges a higher-tier victor, there was no time for hesitation.

One either leaves the arena as quickly as possible after a match or faces a wheel battle against the next opponent.

Chen Fei had just used the Dust Giant Body, and She Mingjian from Shadow Island appeared immediately.

The reason was simple: to take advantage of Chen Fei’s momentary weakness and kill him directly.

Chen Fei’s reckless use of the Dust Giant Body was somewhat puzzling, but it likely indicated a breakthrough to the late fourth stage and the integration of new talents.

This new talent was probably related to recovery, allowing Chen Fei to use the Dust Giant Body so boldly, a technique that severely pressured himself.

However, no matter how strong the recovery ability, time was still required for it to support him.

Therefore, Shadow Island seized this opportunity, using all their strength to kill Chen Fei.

Arrogance in relying on newfound recovery abilities was both reckless and foolish.

Arrogance was the greatest sin, for it causes one to subconsciously overlook many things, leading to great disasters.

From Shadow Island’s perspective, Chen Fei was arrogant and presumptuous. If they had Chen Fei’s strength, they would have been cautious and strategic.

But Chen Fei’s current actions suited their intentions perfectly.

As long as Chen Fei died, even if She Mingjian also perished in the process, it would be worth it.

After all, Shadow Island still had She Mingchuan waiting.

She Mingchuan was the strongest of the late-stage fourth realm experts from Shadow Island, known for his exceptional talent, which he had already proven in previous deathmatches.

Even the Bloodwing Divine Phoenix, embodying the Phoenix form, had been slain by She Mingchuan.

Given She Mingchuan’s power, the remaining two from Boundless Sea, Zhu Xiaowen and his companion, were insignificant and easily dealt with.

Thus, eliminating Chen Fei would make everything worthwhile!

The Sun Moon Realm and Monster Emperors from Boundless Sea frowned, unable to do anything but watch at this moment.

In the arena, She Mingjian’s eyes brimmed with murderous intent. As soon as he spoke, his entire body began to blaze. He was fighting desperately and with no reservations, aiming to take Chen Fei down with him.

This was the best chance for Shadow Island and for She Mingjian.

He was not afraid of dying, as long as he could drag Chen Fei down with him.

Countless sword lights shot from She Mingjian’s hands, forming a blade storm that enveloped Chen Fei.

He did not give Chen Fei any chance to rest or recover, intending to kill him while he was at his most vulnerable.

“Please!”

Seeing the sky filled with sword lights, Chen Fei smiled softly and slashed down with the Qianyuan Sword once more.

The Dust Giant Body behind him mirrored Chen Fei’s action, and the Dust Law Sword swung out again.

Weakness?

It was nonexistent!

Under the Unblemished Divine Vision’s blessing, Chen Fei was still at his peak. The only issue was the enormous consumption of his energy, vitality, and spirit.

By estimation, Chen Fei could continue to unleash three more sword strikes.

After these three strikes, Chen Fei’s state would fall to its lowest, where even Nine Star Chain or Sword Dominates the Galaxy could not be sustained, and burning his soul would be futile.

At that point, the Dust Giant Body would naturally dissipate.

But until these three strikes were used, Chen Fei would remain at his most formidable. Even if only one last strike was left, and his internal energy, vitality, and spirit fell to less than one-third, Chen Fei would still be at his peak combat strength.

This was the essence of Unblemished Divine Vision: injuries and weakness had no impact on Chen Fei.

In some respects, Unblemished Divine Vision approached the meaning of supreme powers more closely than other talents.

Chen Fei was inclined to use Unblemished Divine Vision as the seed for his future breakthrough to the Sun Moon Realm.

As if the heavens were being cleaved open, under the Dust Law Sword, the void shattered, and She Mingjian’s blade storm was completely obliterated.

She Mingjian’s eyes widened involuntarily as he watched Chen Fei effortlessly unleash the second strike, feeling the terrifying power contained within this strike. His mind was almost overwhelmed.

How could Chen Fei continue to unleash such moves? What kind of talent did he gain after breaking through to the late fourth realm?

Not only She Mingjian, but everyone from Shadow Island saw Chen Fei use the second Dust Law Sword, and their expressions changed dramatically.

This was completely contrary to their plan!

“Ah!”

She Mingjian howled to the sky, his energy, vitality, and spirit reversing. His entire body trembled slightly.

From bones to flesh, he instantly transformed into a cloud of blood mist.

Within the blood mist, a gaze seemed to glance at Chen Fei before the mist wielded the Black Cliff Blade and charged at the Dust Law Sword.

Even if he had to die, he wanted to inflict heavy losses on Chen Fei. He could not believe that any late-stage fourth realm expert could be this strong!

“Boom!”

Under the Dust Law Sword, the blood mist that She Mingjian had transformed into was instantly reduced to ashes.
