Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

Chapter 990: Riding the Horse

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lu Shuzhang also wanted to help, but his strength simply didn’t allow for it.

If Lu Shuzhang recklessly charged forward, it was uncertain how much help he could provide, but it was certain he would be more of a hindrance.

Therefore, Lu Shuzhang had the self-awareness to stay at a distance. Unless there were Hill Clan members attempting to escape, Lu Shuzhang could intercept one, just like he did with the Ice Clan earlier.

He was still far from having the battle power of someone like Kuang Xingfeng.

Chen Fei waved his right hand and collected forty-seven pieces of Spirit Essence and forty-seven pieces of Celestial Treasures.

Including the ones he had previously slain, the Celestial Treasures in Chen Fei’s sleeves had surpassed one hundred.

This was an astonishing amount of wealth. Adding in the collections of Celestial Treasures, Chen Fei’s assets far surpassed those of peak Sun Moon Realm cultivators.

The rare and precious materials needed for Sun Moon Realm cultivation were highly sought after. Whenever they appeared in human cities, they would be fiercely contested by Sun Moon Realm experts.

However, no matter how precious, it depended on who was buying. In the face of Chen Fei’s current wealth, it was all trivial.

Chen Fei handed some Celestial Treasures to Kuang Xingfeng, who directly shook his head in refusal.

It was only when Chen Fei produced a Mysterious Hoof Flower that Kuang Xingfeng accepted it.

The Mysterious Hoof Flower was a sacred medicine for healing.

Kuang Xingfeng had suffered serious injuries from forcefully battling several mid-stage Sun Moon Realm experts, so his recovery was quite slow, even with the Heavenly Illusion Time Severing Technique’s restoration capabilities.

Although Kuang Xingfeng had his own healing medicine, it had been nearly exhausted after battling other alien clans and being surrounded by dozens of Hill Clan members. That’s why he accepted the Mysterious Hoof Flower from Chen Fei.

“I just heard those Hill Clan members say you’re going to the Taiyin Peak? The situation in the Glass Space is currently quite unfavorable for our human race.”

Kuang Xingfeng swallowed the Mysterious Hoof Flower and glanced at Chen Fei and the approaching Lu Shuzhang.

“Yes, there are certainly many Evil and Ice Clans gathered there now,” Lu Shuzhang nodded.

The reason Chen Fei and he arrived at Bamboo Valley so quickly was that there were no alien clans intercepting them along the way.

Clearly, other alien clans had received news of Chen Fei, and those with insufficient numbers dared not encircle him.

Since the alien clans couldn’t be lured, Chen Fei sped up and crossed hundreds of thousands of miles to reach Bamboo Valley and see Water Clan and the Hill Clan members.

Rescuing Kuang Xingfeng was a surprise; Chen Fei hadn’t known beforehand that Kuang Xingfeng was trapped here.

Kuang Xingfeng looked at Chen Fei. The combat power Chen Fei had displayed was astounding, and compared to when he was at Qiankun Mansion, it was like a different person.

But even so, there was no need to take such risks.

“Dimension Origin, Rule Crystals—these treasures are rarely seen,” Chen Fei said with a light smile.

These two treasures had directly attracted powerful beings from over a dozen races around the Glass Space, with dozens of Emperor Realm experts standing guard outside.

If it weren’t for the special circumstances of the Glass Space, Sun Moon Realm cultivators wouldn’t even be qualified to participate in or observe such events.

“What do you plan to do?” Kuang Xingfeng asked quietly.

“Normal treasure hunting.”

Chen Fei replied with a smile, heading towards Taiyin Peak.

There was one more thing Chen Fei didn’t say: if anyone tried to stop him from treasure hunting, he would end their lives!

At this moment, Taiyin Peak was swarming with a large number of alien races, but so what?

Lu Shuzhang followed behind Chen Fei. His plan was simple: when things seemed dire, perhaps his Teleportation Talisman could assist Chen Fei.

Kuang Xingfeng watched Chen Fei’s retreating figure and understood the implication of Chen Fei’s words. He grinned and followed.

Against such a massive number of alien races, Kuang Xingfeng could only escape, but with Chen Fei around, he felt he could still be of some use.

Just like when he used illusions to confuse the Hill Clan earlier, it allowed Chen Fei to kill aliens faster.

There were many aliens at Taiyin Peak, but as long as enough of them were killed, the rest would inevitably flee.

Moments later, dozens of figures appeared above Bamboo Valley.

“That fluctuation of aura seems to be from the Hill Clan, and it should be dozens of them,” one of the aliens said in a low voice.

They had been following Chen Fei’s trail, but Chen Fei’s speed was too fast for them to catch up, so they arrived late.

Thus, they hadn’t witnessed the previous battle like they did earlier.

“Chen Fei is truly a god of death. The Hill Clan is reckless; they didn’t even run upon encountering him,” another alien said, shaking his head.

“Perhaps they couldn’t run, or maybe they didn’t have time. How many could escape if Chen Fei were truly hunting someone down?” another alien suggested.

At Taiyin Peak in the Glass Space.

More than a thousand mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators from various races floated in the air. Among them was a completely black mountain, Taiyin Peak.

Of these Sun Moon Realm cultivators, nearly six hundred were from the Ice and Evil Clans, over a hundred were from the Water, Forest, and Hill Clans, and the rest were from other races who came to watch the excitement after hearing Chen Fei was coming to Taiyin Peak.

“Three thousand miles away, I see that Chen Fei is no longer just one person, but three.”

Yan Zhe of the Ice Clan said in a low voice, looking at the vibrating jade slip in his hand.

To surround and kill Chen Fei at Taiyin Peak, the Ice and Evil Clans had not only gathered many of their own, but also set up spies in several directions. As soon as they spotted Chen Fei, they would immediately send a message back.

“They’re quite fast. I’m curious to see if this human prodigy is truly as unbeatable as rumored!”

Feng Tao of the Evil Clan said, showing his sharp teeth with a cold expression.

With so many mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators present, could they really be stopped by a single human of the same realm? No matter how strong Chen Fei’s battle power, if he dared to appear at Taiyin Peak, they would make sure he never left!

“Don’t be careless,” Yan Zhe warned quietly.

“Names of men, shadows of trees!”

Perhaps the previous rumors were exaggerated, but Chen Fei’s strength could not be denied.

After all, even knowing that Taiyin Peak must have an ambush, Chen Fei still came here unflinchingly. Such courage could only be supported by substantial strength.

“Will Teng Li be coming from Xuanbo Mountain?” Yan Zhe asked.

“He’s been notified for a while now. He should be arriving soon.”

As soon as Feng Tao finished speaking, he suddenly turned his gaze towards the south. A powerful aura was surging from that direction, and the sky was filled with dark clouds.

“Teng Li is here!”

Feeling the aura of those dark clouds, Yan Zhe felt as if his soul might be crushed.

This was a qualitative change produced by over two hundred mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators combining their powers.

Compared to the same number of mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators forming a similar formation, the coordination of their array was incomparable to that of a single will directing the formation.

Teng Li’s arrival completely dispelled any lingering doubts Yan Zhe had about Chen Fei.

If the combined strength of the six hundred Evil and Ice Clan members still left some uncertainty, then with Teng Li and his more than two hundred mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators, victory was assured.

Without the Rule Integration Realm, Yan Zhe didn’t believe there was any other force that could stop this power!

Feng Tao also couldn’t help but smile, leading the other Evil Clan Sun Moon Realm cultivators to greet Teng Li.

The Sun Moon Realm cultivators from other races looked at the vast, imposing aura emanating from Teng Li and felt a sense of dread, with an instinctive urge to flee.

Only the knowledge that Teng Li’s transformed avatars had reached their limit—230 in total, with no more to be added—kept them from running. Otherwise, the mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators present might have fled in panic.

After all, Teng Li had previously shown no regard for the race of those he distorted and transformed into avatars.

“You’ve arrived!”

Feng Tao stepped forward and greeted Teng Li with a smile.

“Is the human Chen Fei here?” Teng Li asked flatly, his voice cold and his gaze less animated.

“About thirty thousand miles away, he’s almost here.”

Under Teng Li’s gaze, Feng Tao felt a chill in his heart, and his smile became somewhat strained.

Teng Li nodded, then closed his eyes, unwilling to say another word.

Yan Zhe, standing slightly farther away, felt something was off about Teng Li’s state but didn’t dare to comment.

Yan Zhe had heard of the Hundred Evil Night Walk, but he had never heard of any Evil Clan members reaching Teng Li’s level.

There must be other secrets involved, but those were no longer important at this moment.

First and foremost, it was crucial to kill that human prodigy in the Glass Space.

If such a prodigy were allowed to grow, they would become a serious threat to the Evil and Ice Clans in the future.

“Twenty thousand miles!”

“Ten thousand miles!”

“Five thousand miles, the scouts have been killed!”

As Chen Fei continued to approach Taiyin Peak, the atmosphere around the peak grew tense, with everyone waiting for his arrival.

However, with the scouts five thousand miles away being slain, Chen Fei’s exact whereabouts became a mystery. They only knew that the human prodigy was on his way.

Three thousand miles away.

“Are we really just going to charge straight in?”

Lu Shuzhang looked towards the distance. Even though they were still three thousand miles away, he could already sense the oppressive aura from afar.

With over a thousand mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators gathered together, the fluctuations of the world’s vital energy were extremely complex and could not be concealed.

Lu Shuzhang imagined charging in with the others and felt a chill. It was simply too insane!

At this moment, Kuang Xingfeng’s earlier bravado had vanished. Although he had been confident before, the idea of charging into hundreds or even a thousand mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators was overwhelming, even for his temperament.

After all, Kuang Xingfeng had just been surrounded and nearly killed by a few dozen Hill Clan members.

The difference between dealing with a few dozen mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators and hundreds was like night and day.

Kuang Xingfeng turned to look at Chen Fei. Was he serious about charging in like this?

“Before we go in, we can take care of some other things,” Chen Fei said with a hint of a smile and continued forward.

Kuang Xingfeng and Lu Shuzhang exchanged puzzled glances, not fully understanding Chen Fei’s words. However, they did sense that Chen Fei did not plan to charge directly into Taiyin Peak and engage in a bloodbath with hundreds or even a thousand mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators.

Two thousand miles, one thousand miles, eight hundred miles.

Eventually, Chen Fei and his companions stopped five hundred miles from Taiyin Peak.

At this distance, they could clearly see the majestic celestial phenomenon forming around Taiyin Peak.

Suddenly, Teng Li, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, opened them wide.
